TB DEMONSTRATED DANGERS
IN i TWO-REEL PICTURE

The danger to farm animals and to
human beings from the neglect of
animal tuberculosis is grapnicaIlv
illustrated in a new m0tion-picture
film prepared and issued by the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
under the title, "Out OF the Shadows" f"
The story has to do with the happy
family of Henry Benton, wholesome
farmer, with a large and handsome
herd of dairy cattle.
A government inspector tracing an
epidemic, suggests test of the Ben
ton herd, and gives arguments that
induce Benton to consent to a tuber-
culin test. The result of the tests
shows an appalling condition, and ex-
plains the declining health of Ben
TONS beautiful young daughter, who
has drunk the milk of favorite heif-
er. The cleanup of the farm and
Benton's requirement of a herd of
cattle not affected with tuberculosis
are results of the inspectors visit.
The daughter, however, is not restor-
ed to health until after three years
in sanitarium.
The picture is in two reels and
carries so strong human-interest
story together with it's lesson that it
is widely sought through the loan sys-
tenn of the department, and through
purchase by state and local organiza-
tions.

Snow Piled Into Canyons.

Last Saturday was a day long to
be remembered in the Salmon coun-
try for high winds straight from the
north. Two feet of snow had fallen
on the SUBMITS during the day or
two before and the winds took UP
the white covering from off the slopes
of the mountains and dumped it into
the canyons. This movement could
be seen from the streets of Salmon
to a distance of ten miles out over
the adjacent hills and gulches, for the
sky afforded not cloud to obscure
the view in any direction.
Even Montana snow was thus de-
posted over on this side of the divide
and swept down into the defiles by
the winds. 1t is calculated that tons
on tons of snow was in this manner
packed away where it will do the
most good for the summers needs
for irrigation.

A Card From Mrs. Fowler.

In order to relieve the minds of
some of the Salmon people who are
worrying over the affairs of Ethel
and Albert Taylor, | wish to state
there is nothing in the dirty rum
ors circulated in regard to the affair.
Mr.. Taylor is not dead, neither is he
dying. ! have letters from both par
ties and clipping from the paper
and anyone can see them by calling
on me and | will relieve their minds
so they can get good nights sleep.
They are separated and he got a
divorce but the people of Salmon
ought to get used to that sort of
thing as it occurs in Salmon quite
often. Some of the very ones that
are doing the most talking had better
sweep their own door yards clean be-
fore they talk. The Bible says "Bri-
die your tongues" but it would take
a j. |. bit to hold some tongues
in Salmon from wagging. So
this rumor is a deliberate falsehood,
so give yourselves a rest and if you
want to learn the straight of it, call
on me and ! will give it to you.

MONTANA MAY BAR
LEMHI PRODUCTS
{ d NJ NJ ERC IAL RELATIONS
THREATENED BY ATTITUDE
OF MONTANA QUARANTINE
To BE LOOKED AFTER.

The executive committee OF the
Farm Bureau, comprising President
Summers, A. +. Ferguson, ID. A.
Smith, Ludwig Mogg, Paul Zeims.
Joe Dorr and A. ID. Cook, held an i'm
portant meeting on Tuesday last to
consider ways and means to meet the
threatened quarantine by the state of
Montana against the importation of
Idaho products. Such quarantine
would disastrously affect Lemhi coun-
ty. 1t was shown that with the Mon
tana markets closed Lemhi would
have no market for its valuable po-
tato crop, while other products of this
county would suffer in smaller degree
The quarantine is another way of
imposing a tariff in Interstate COM
merce, which is expressly forbidden.
Potato growers in Montana, though
their crop is insignificant in quantity
and poor in quality, may have invoked
the quarantine to shut out our pota-
toes.
County Agent l.. F.. Tillotson and
Joe Dorr were instructed to visit the
state to the east and see the quaran-
tine board in reference to the where
fore of this contemplat embargo
~. X. Il TeiSuSofi anu liiOtSON, as all
other committee in the same connec-
tion, have ascertained from Salmon
business houses that hundreds of
thousands of dollars are paid out in
this city to Montana jobbegs and
wholesale concerns for merchandise
every year, which fact is TO be brought
iorcihly to the attention of the afore-
said quarantine board and all others
in authority in the Treasure st -.
II reciprocal trade relations are to
be continued it would seem to be the
aart of wisdom for the Montana mer-
chants to say something to their quar-
antine board
The Business Mems Association
promptly got behind the movement
last night at special meeting by
voting $50 toward defraying the ex-
penses Of the delegation to Montana.

Spring Cleaning.

The street cleaning forces are out
in Salmon with the first appearance
of the robins and blue birds. Dan
Chase with a pair of horses and a
scraper has worked wonders for the
improvement of Main street, which is
now smoother than ever before at this
season of the year. The man with
the shovel is following up the work
in shaping up the cutters. A notable
improvement at private expense is
being made by DIR. Hammer in front
of his Brooklyn residence where he is
removing one of the stone piles in
front thereof out in the middle of the
street, which has remained there
since the age of the mound builders.

ANNUAL MEETING OF FARM
BUREAU MARCH 70, 1921

The annual meeting of the Farm
Bureau will be held at the Farm Blu
reau office Tuesday. March %. at 2:30
p. m.
This meeting is the annual affair
of the bureau at which time the pro-
gram of work for the year IL adopted
and the officers and executive COM
mittee elected. Every farmer of the
county should attend this meeting
and express his desires of the work TO
be undertaken by the bureau. The
Farm Bureau h farmers oryaniza-
ton that il wide awake and looking
after the farmers problems in coun-
", state and national way.
Every farmer is wondering just
what he will undertake this year and
what the outcome will be. Exchange
of ideas, cooperation and greater
production at less costs are some of
the main solutions of the problem.
Since the Farm Bureau has the vital
connection with governmental Institu-
tions, without danger of any control
of its officers or activities. since il
occupies an unique place between and
has a tempering influence on the ex-
treme elements of our commercial and
industrial activities: since its plans
and methods are uniformly careful.
constructive and cooperative, it is
reasonable TO conclude that the Farm
Bureau is the one universal organiza-
tion OF farmers designed TO I'LL a most
important place in our national life.
At nearly every community meet
ing held in the county, the marketing
difficulty came UP. Better products
and cooperative marketing will help
this problem. The executive commit
tee wishes 10 organize a cooperative
shipping association. This can only
be accomplished by good interest in
the matter and good turnout To the
annual meeting on the 29th. Iowa
has over two hundred shipping asso-
Citations and each association saved
the farmers over $1,000 last year.

to secure an adjustment of railroad
