MANY INSPECT
FUR INDUSTRY
Large Attendance at
Hagerman Valley
Farm

BOISE.-Fully five hundred peo-
pie coming in more than one humid
red autos Sunday visited the farm OF
the Idaho Game Breeders associa-
ton in Hagerman valley. Saturday
evening, in association with this Wis
it, banquet was held at Wendell
largely attended and addressed by
Judge j. H. Richards of Boise, pres
ident of the association, and others.
A. B. Hulit, manager of the asso-
citation, acted as POSTMASTER.
The tenor of the speeches indicat-
ed widespread interest not only in
the material side of the association s
work and in its development as a
beauty spot in the Hagerman valley
but in the effect such an enterprise
will have upon the minds of old and
young by reason of the uplifting in
fluences of the nature-wealthy en-
vironment.
The hundreds who visited the
farm Sunday included many farmers
and their families who told of the
widespread interest in their various
localities in the work of the asso-
citation and pledged community sup
port for it as recreation place-a
great playground and a country club
for an immense territory-as well
as the center of growing industry.
A buffet luncheon was served by
the association after the crowds had
thoroughly inspected the place, en-
joyed the beautiful blue lakes, the
wonderfalls, the parks and the pens
of domestic and wild animals and
fowls.
The coyotes and the skunks were
centers Of attraction, the latter hav-
ing been rendered inoffensive. The
birth rate among wild animals has
been heavy and it is estimated that
soon there will be a birth in the
colony every hour of the twenty
four.

GRATED in the national colors. A
very large crowd was in attendance,
many people being present from
Blackfoot and Idaho Falls. The
dancing started about 9 o'clock and

What to Do with Leftovers.

what to Do with leftovers.
One Of the ways Of dispos:ng Of left
overs is not to have any; but even in
the best-managed households there is
bound to be some foods left ovea. We
do not wish to be niggardly. nor yet
so profuse in our providing that there
is any great amount Of food left over.
A small dish Of corn which has been
served as a vegetable may appear
again in the form of q few fritters as
q garnish for dish Of chicken which
was just enough to 60 around. The
corn Is saved and the chicken Is thus
sufficient.
Fish Balls Baked.
Take one cupful Of cooked rice and
one cupful of faxed cooked fish, one
egg well beaten, a tablespoonful Of
strong cheese, teaspoonful Of lemon
juice, and salt and pepper to taste.
Form into balls, place in buttered
pan and bake delicate brown. Serve
with slices Of buttered toast.
Salmon Salad.
Any bits Of left over salmon, II mixed
with coconut, adding few string
beans or chopped pickle and any good
dressing, make an appetizing salad.
Use lettuce as border or garnish to
the platter Of salad.
Sour Cream Filling.
For q layer cake, take thick sour
cream-not too sour-whip and add
chopped raisins and a few coarsely
minced nuts, a little powdered sugar;
mix all together, add a few drops Of
any havoring extract and spread over
the cake. Sour cream cooked with
equal parts of brown sugar until thick,
to which is added few nuts, makes
most delicious cake filling and frost
ing. Sour cream may be used in any
salad dressing which calls for sweet
cream, making dressing equally good.
Most boiled dressings, as well as may
onnaise, are improved by the addition
Of cream; sour cream whips as well
as sweet and takes the place Of sweet
cream.
Brown Betty.
Place alternate layers Of chopped
juicy apples, with bread crumbs, in
buttered baking dish, having the
crumbs at the bottom. Add cinnamon
or nutmeg with little brown sugar
and bits of butter over each layer. Fin
ish with crumbs and bake for an hour.
covering the dish at first. Serve with
a hard sauce.

SIX ACRES OF POTATOES
NETS SMALL FORTUNE
idaho Register)


A large number of "fishy" sound
ing stories have been promulgated
at different times on potatoes raised
on farms adjacent to Idaho Falls, but
the following is believed to be one
of the best and this one can be
traced and substantiated as covering
nothing beyond the facts:
w. B. Barstow, living. about two
or three miles out on the west side
of the river, lately marketed three
cars of the meek and lowly Bonne-
vile county spuds, approximately
10000 pounds, at 81 per cwt.,
Mr.. Barstow is now selling the seed
potatoes culled from this same lot,
the seed being over 1000 sacks,
bringing from ready sale 81 per cwt.
or a net amount Of $1,000. These
potatoes were Of the fine clean quail
ity and raised from six acres of Mr..
Barstow's ground which cost him
when he came to the Idaho Falls po-
tato country two or three years ago
$3.50 per acre. Here is an example
of good farming, bringing an in
come Of $2,583 per acre, or a total
of about $15,500 from the six acres
of spuds for the year 1919.
The Boyle company bought this
output, excepting the seed potatoes
and shipped to Wichita, Kan.

SHIP CATTLE OVERSEAS

Vancouver, B. ca herd Of twen-
ty-four purebred Holstein cattle from
the prize herds of British Columbia
are being shipped to Australia for
the stockmen of that country. H.
Simmons, who took herd of seven
head to Tahiti last fall and then pro-
ceeded to Australia, found a great
demand for Canadian Holsteins there
and believes this initial shipment to
be the beginning of an increasing ex-
port to that country in Canadian
purebred Holsteins.

1t should be noted that the arti-
Gle reflects the purely British view
point and that with assertions such
as that America needs no merchant
marine the wish is unquestionably
father to the thought. In more than
one point the British financier's
claims, though purporting to analyze
Americas interests, are irreconcil-
ably contrary to the views Of Ameri-
cas- own financiers and economists
as to the true economic needs of the
true United States, especially as re-
CARDS the imperative need Of abso-
lutte maritime independence from

Dramatic Moment This Morning During
Trial of Man Charged With Killing
His Wife and Her Lover.
SAY THE WITNESSES ARE TEMPERED WITH
Both Sides Complain to the Court About the Activities of
Deputy sheriffs and Process Servers. Case is
Drawing to An End

criminal court this morning was
sfinet as the grave except for the
murmur of the main voices in the
drama being enacted there. The
trial of Nick Bostic is nearing the
finish.
Early. Judge Lowe ordered that
the doorways leading into the out
side hall be guarded by deputies so
that the crowds should not fill them
rcompletely. Even at ten this morn
ing SPECTATORS were standing.
Attorney Harry Shaw, working
quietly but surely for the state,
brought out his high card this morn
ing in the shape Of Paul Oliver
fierce looking Italian with coal black
hair and mustache and but one arm.
Attorney Nicely objected to the man
taking the stand, but Fate intended
that Oliver should give his testimony
Mrs. Caldara interpreted just as
fast as she got the mans thought.
Oliver said he gave what he did mere
ly from a clear conscience, and. that
he told just what he saw.
What Oliver saw turned Bostic
purple an dtheratened to spoil quanti-
ties OF perfectly good testimony in
Bostic,s behalf given by each and
every one of the witnesses who have
laboring in Bostic's behalf.
As oliver told of taking revolver
away from Bostic at one time not
very ago when Bostic threatened to
kill not only his wife, but everybody
the house which he visited, Bostic
b Sgan to grow red and the red turned
to purple and in an instant he was on
his feet speaking fast in Italian to the
witness on the stand. Bosuc was an
CRY. For the second time since the
trial began he showed plainly to the
Jury what kind of a temper he had.
1t required the low voice of the sher-
an and touch by him on Bostic's
arm, with Attorney Neely's There,
there, my child" before Bostic set
tied back into seeming calm.
Paul Oliver told straight story
to the effect that he was the brother
in-laws of Frank Barber, the dead wo-
mans father, and that he lived in
Barber's house at the time when Bos-
tic appeared with a revolver looking
for his wife, wohm he threatened to
kill. Bostic intended shooting every
oon In the house, and there were
little children there.He finally did
shoot, but toward the fireplace. Then
he ran away and came back again,
forcing his way into the room where
Mrs. Barber slept, breaking in the
door. Oliver then grabbed the revol-
yer and hid it. Bostic told Oliver
ta.ht he was member of blackhand
'1hand and would kill those in the
yhosse. and that If he didn't he could
get some people at Pittsburgh to do
Ia j & S'.s sir5t here that Bostic got
10 hts feet. fairly wild with anger.
6lliser sad &c took the revolVerc to
the sqrirc's office at the court house
The West Virginian. [volume] (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1914-1974, 1920-02-12

and left it, swearing out warrant for
Bostic's arrest.
Attorney Neely endeayored TO
break down this testimony, bus was
not abel to do so. outside Of regular
routine this morning, including cross
examination of Nick Bostic by Attor-
ney Shaw, which offered much in the
way of tense itnerest, there occurred
another argument between tue state
and the defense which Judge Lowe
was called upon to settle as best he
could. However, after the cat was
once out of teh bag settlement of any
sort which could erase the Impression
made upon the jury was Impossible.
Assistant Prosecuting Attorney
Miller in an unusually good speech
to Judge Lowe complained taht word
had just been received tahti the state
found it impossible to get sumomns
on osme of its important witnesses,
and that 1t believed the man Sam
Gregg was working SO fiercely in be-
half Of his friend Nick Bostic that
the state was being materially handi-
capped. (Sam Gregg on the stand a
moment before denied having ever
said that Bostic drew a revolver on
anyone.)
Attorney Miller accused Gregg of
lying and of going about among wit
inesses and helpin gthem fix up their
stories. Miller claimed he saw Gregg
get out of his seat in the back of the
court room and go toward witness
about to be called as though to tell
him something. Miller admitted he
sent deputy after Gregg with orders
that he not be allowed to join those
in teh hall to talk oyer what was
going on.
Attorney Neely said: "It has come
to me at least three times that impu-
dent sheriffs in the coutr room have
been meddling with my witnesses. At
least one officer that know about has
been active in participating in things
not his business. God knows the state
has abundant authority, but it has
no right to prevent witnesses from
talking outside the court room If they
like. Bostic ought to be allowed at
elast one friend outside!"
Both attorneys were loud and much
wrought up over the matter. Judge
Lowe said the court rom vas no place
in which to take up the matter.
Attorney Neely following Miller's
argument exclaimed that II it were
possible that the man Gregg was guilty
of working in behalf of Bostic in irreg.
ular, fashion he thought he should be
fined and sent to prison. No move,
however, was made to put Gregg ia
confinement until a possible trial
might come off.
1t was brought out nevertheless
that Sam Gregg was at one time Ill
jail OH charge of shooting man, but
was later released to go to war. Both
Gregg and Bostic were pals in the
army. Attorney Shaw brought to light
that ostic had befriended Gregg while
Gregg was in jail giving real reason
why Gregg should at this strenuous
time give assistance in every way pos
sible to ostic on trial for his life.
The first witness on the stand this
morning was Nick Bostic who sufferer
cross-examination under Attorney
Shaw with fair equanimity. Shaw un-
dertook to get Bostic to commit him
self regarding the shooting of his wife
when he went carefully into the trag-
