amounts to the same. They vote
unanimously to have trash hauled
away and not burned in the town.
The neighbors always vote unani-
mously, but many of the owners of
trash not neighbors as aforesaid vote
to burn it where 1t is. People. say
that you can. always distinguish be-
tween the owner of trash and the
neighbor by the way he votes. If he
votes to burn trash he is no neigh
Dor, but if he has it carted away he
is both a neighbor and an owner OF
trash. There was time when the
two never wen together. All burend
the trash and disavOwed being neigh
bors or caring for neighbors or ever
expecting to care for neighbors. But
when the ebulent (???) springtime
was past and the stink of the bon
fires had vanished and most of the
joys of spring had been compromised
by smoke from the trash piles, they
again sat on the porches and called
across to their old friends and again
became neighborly. Thus do the ties
that bind take on sinew again.

i'm THE GOOD OLD
CLEANUP DAYS
Spring Brings Thoughts
of Beautifying Tn:
slightly Places

In days gone by the town OF
BIackfoot has condemned old frame
buildings on the grounds that they
were a nuisance and the time is ripe
for the present council to consider
something in that line.
OF course nobody in town owns a
nuisance. 1t Is always somebody liv-
ing Montana or some other state
that it belongs to. But lumber in
old shacks is good price and peo-
pie who have such property that is
not serving any useful purpose and
not yielding any revenue, ought to
scrap it or sell it whole or in some
way get into the cleanup game and
turn the junk into money and buy
oyeralls.
There are some irrigating bitches
that need to be cleaned out so the
water will scour we'll. There are
some ditch banks that need pairing
down and the extra dirt should be
put into some holes in the street. 1t
would not be polite for us to mention
the places nor print the pictures of
the places, but everybody who looks
about them as they walk thru the
streets can see, and that Is better
than reading it in The Republican.
There are a good many ash piles
on the rear ends of lots, and this
same rubbish would do good service
if nails and other projectiles were
sorted out and the ashes itself placed
in the low places in the street. Peo-
pie who put their ashes in the street
without looking for the low places
are requested to make the transfer
during cleanup week to get things
evened up.
1t is open season for foolishness in
regard to bonfires now. There are
still good many poor people and
some who have never even been in
Jail, who still pile up their leaves

and other trash in damp pile and
set the drier parts afire. The result
is that it stinks among the neigh
bors for a day or two, only part of
the pile. burns, due to dampness, and
1t continues to send out volatile
lguess that is the world smoke until
there comes a; rain OF wind. II it
rains the fire goes out and after the
rain the ashes begins to blow into
the neigh bors' houses and sift into
thir rugs, carpets and draperies,
making it necessary for them to send
those things to the laundry. If the
rain does not come until after the
wind arrives, then more of the ashes
blows about town and if it does not
find lodgment in somebody's house
the first day it travels about on sue
ceeding days till 1t gets in. 1t is
very persevering and after it gets
into the goods it still perseveres.
Time was when most of the people
got rid of their trash by partly burn,
ing it and letting the wind stir it
among the neighbors' carpets, and
they left the unburned parts in the
! edge of the street to advertise the
fact that nobody lived there. Some
we're more in industrious and piled
the stuff near the middle of the
street SO it would help in the job of
upsetting unwary vehicles including
| the drivers. This latter custom has
nearly become extinct since drays
were established with headquarters
and telephone service, for anybody
with enough get-up to move the
trash into the middle of the street is
apt to have enough consideration for
the rest of the town to patronize the
dray and have the stuff hauled away
1t is said to be almost as cheap as
laundry service washing the house
hold goods, and for the neighbors
it is as cheap as overalls.
There is species of citizens who
consider that this is free country
and what is theirs is their own, and
they pile their trash on their own
lots and burn it or partly burn it
there and leave. the remains to adj
vertsie the fact that only certain per-
sons live on the premises. 1t has
been found that the neighbors do not
care whoop whether the smoke
rises from neighbors' lots or form
the street in front of his lots Smoke
is smoke, and ashes is ashes, the
same as pigs is pigs, and it all
