DISMISS THE
CROUCH

Some of the business men Of
Blackfoot and Pocatello have been
cultivating an estrangement for the
past month, and it can bring no good
to anyone. The two towns have al
ways been pretty good friends, our
women folks have gone down there
to buy goods when the same things
were on sale in the stores at home,
they have come up to our fair and
paid their money to see our horses
and pumpkins; they have enter
tanned us at their club luncheons,
they helped us put our good roads
project across, they have paid most
OF the bills so far, for getting the
Greater Fort Hall Project up to the
attention Of official Washington SO
that we are getting into the budget
with recommendations for an appro-
priation OF half a million dollars to
be, expended enlarging the project
and in making q new dam to take the
place of the present doubtful one.
We have been forgetting ourselves
sometimes lately and saying that
Pocatello seems to be doing some
small things-but granting that they
have or that individuals have who
are not representative Of the town,
the best thing to do is to forget 1t.
Let's have team work and CO.
operation between towns the same
as we are getting team work and CO.
operation among the people Of our
own town.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1921-10-24

there was delivery when the time
came and in generous measure.
1t was a mark of the small-town
idea that called forth suspicion, and
it was a mark of big man to make
good as he did.
Wen Do BETTER
Next Year
The people of Blackfoot who so
generously placed their rooms and
homes at the disposal Of the housing
committee have done an important
service for the community. They
have done the team work that was
necessary to make for the success Of
the occasion and have won no little
fame and great good will for the
town, and that is what was the pri-
mary object of the undertaking.
without their aid it could not have
been accomplished; without their
steadfast loyalty it would have been
a failure.
1t is subject of sincere regret
that so many who prepared for
guests did not receive any, and in
many cases these preparations were
made at a substantial sacrifice. In
some instances a better understand
ing and experience on the part of the
assignment committee would have
mitigated these disappointments, but
1t was q new experience to the town
and everybody went in with but one
thought-that it was an emergency
that required the united efforts OF
all, and so we went in on high gear
when intermediate would have been
sufficient.
Even the optimistic folks said II
would require all the homes in town
to handle the guests, and all the
available force and halls to furnish
the meals, but when we took an In.
ventory Of our resources we found
that It was so per cent more than
we had supposed and more than wat
really needed. 1t is good to discover
that we are richer than we thought
we were, but the greatest wealth
that came to light in the undertaking
was the loyalty and team work Of
the people. Nothing could buy that
and let us hope that nothing will
take 1t away.

SOME LESSONS HERE
FOR US

Blackfoot has taken care OF the
district institute and with much
credit to herself. 1t has won the
good will of teachers, superintend
ents and lecturers and it won the re-
turn engagement of the institute fol
1922.
The teachers were profuse in thei'
expressions Of satisfaction with the
unusual amount of service and favor
and courtesies shown them. Lectur.
ers who attend Institutes in many
places conlplimented the people Of
the town on the situation here
Professor Siders of Pocatello, who
has conducted the institute for ter
years and who has been member
of the national educational associa'
ton for over a quarter OF century
and has attended teachers conven.
lions great and small in all parts Of
the United States, says he never saw
better care taken Of a teachers
gathering than has been done al
Blackfoot.
At a meeting OF the business men
of Pocatello Thursday evening when
the subject Of the next institute was
under consideration, they took the
view that Blackfoot had taken l,
away from them when they were a.
fault and were neglecting their duty
to the teachers. Blackf00t had taker
care Of it in a way that seemed more
satisfactory, and they said 1t ougn'
to be left to the teachers to say with
out argument where they wanted i
next year, and they dismissed tn
matter by merely sending letter u
the management to say that Poca
tello would be glad to have them
back at any time that they were will
ing to return and that they were
cordially invited to return In 1927

and they could each send dollar
and receive package Of young
plants suitable for starting straw
berry bed as large as they might
wish, and which they could do in the
manner the Industrial school fol-
lowed. They would not sell large
quantity to any one person or frm.
They had already done this in the
neighborhood of st. Anthony and
with most gratifying results to the
purchasers of the plants.
II you wish to act on this sugges-
ton Just write to w. D. Vincent, st.

you for dollars worth of the straw
berry plants in the spring. Send no

WOULD ADD WEALTH
TO THIS COUNTY
Industrial School Has
Ever Bearing Straw
berry Plants

A hardy, thrifty kind of ever bear
ing strawberry plant has been added
| to the Snake river valley in such
numbers that plants can be spread
over Bingham county next year and
rapidly multiplied If the people own
ing farms and gardens decide to do
so. Here is the information about
it.
The state industrial school at St.
Anthony under the management of
w. D. Vincent purchased two kinds
of ever bearing strawberry plants
and have tested them on large
s lie and the one that has proved
most desirable is the one we shall
tell you about.
They paid high price for the
plants, but bought quite quantity.
Then they cultivated them in such a
way as to get good growth in the
original plants and by cutting OF
all the runners as soon as they had
taken root enough to stand trans
planting, they soon had a large tract
set to the plants. These they Guilt
vate to protect the original plants
and prevent their weakening by
being swamped in a mat Of new
plants arising from the runners. BY
reason Of this kind of culture the old
plants grow larger and more vigor-
GUS as time goes on, tho we cannot
say how long It will continue. Most
Of the old plants and root systems
are from ten to fifteen inches across,
and they bloom all thru the season
unless interrupted by frost. There
was q cold wave about the first of
last July and it froze the bloom and
thus interrupted the production of
berries for the time that 1t took new
bloom to form and set berries. The
green berries went on ripening not
withstanding the frost, so there was
only short interruption Of berry
picking, about ten or fifteen days we
believe.
When Supt. Vincent was having an
exhibit packed to bring to the fair at
Blackfoot, he had one Of these large
plants packed for exhibit, and 1t was
on the counter and at the informa-
ton bureau, but only comparatively
few people could be shown 1t since
1t had not been announced thru the
papers. It'was at that time loaded
with green and ripe berries of diff.
ferent sizes from bloom up. There
was also quart Of ripe berries
which they had picked from one
plant that had been left alone for 9
week before the fair.
| The berries are large and delicious
and SO heavy is the production Of The
strawberry tract at the school thai

in improving the town and Its
properties.
Tabernacle Public
Benefit g
If it had not been for the existence
of the tabernacle it would not have
been possible to hold the institute at
Blackfoot. Every person who aided
in building the tabernacle was max.
ing it possible to have the splendid
musical program that was the crown
ing event of the institute. Indeed
some of the thoughtful folks who
were studying the psychology Of
events said they thought that If there
was any doubt about Blackfoot de-
serving and getting a return OF the
institute it must have changed some
what by the time the Victorian Art
lists bowed the goodnights, for very
body connected with the institute
was the guest Of the town at that
event.
The designs of the tabernacle call
for pipe organ, and all who are in
terested in securing it at the earliest
opportunity are going to be stuyding
to see whether we had not better
install it before next October. 1t
might be source of as much pride
at that time as was the musical pro-
gram of Thursday night. Men who
gave 500 toward the erection OF
the tabernacle will probably be
thinking they would like to give
$50 toward the big organ, and give
it the coming year.
What the Men Owe
the Women
The men of Blackfoot have had
decidedly the best Of the situation
the past week. The women stayed
at home and made beds and kept
house while the men hurried to their
work and at some time during the
day got out for an hour or two en-
pertaining pretty girls with pleasure
trips. assaE n
1t was exceedingly good of the
women to take their part in the tasks
the way they did and keep sweet
about 1t. The men knew they were
having the best of it, and they
naturally look around to see what
they can do to even up the score. A
woman likes to have day OH some
times just the same as man does
and last week was the mans week
In the natural course of events he
likes to deal out favors in the same
generous spirit in which it was dealt
out to him, and the women Of Black
foot have something coming.
Team Work
Did 1t
It was team work that made thu
institute SO successful. The pres
gave the public full information al
to why 1t was brought here, what i
would take to make 1t successful
and what would be required OF tn
residents. They in turn went II
work to do it thoroly, too thoroly a
it proved, and the surplus Of room
and meals started dissatisfaction
that nearly destroyed the team work
but people met in calm council a
critical hours and adjusted differ
ences, re-established schedules ant
plans on workable basis and tn
service went on while the losses AM
limitations stopped.
Any town can start of doing team
work, but it takes town Of rea
perpetrators to mend the riffs q
ithey occur and continue in team
work to the end Of the undertaking
and Blackfoot has done that ono
more.
