for Bonneville county's exhibits at
the Southeastern Idaho Fair. e. j.
Fjeldsted of the fair association met
with them.
All three commissioners were
present and authorized levy suf-
ficient to bring their exhibits here.
They stated there would be no half
heartedness in their work as they
are coming down to show the mother
community just what the daughter
can do.
The communities in Bonneville
county have organized each under a
separate leader and they are coming
after the $50 prize and the silver
cup given by the Rotary club. They
will have 1000 people here on Bon
neville county day, so the commits
sioners say.
Thursday is their day and there
will be special Idaho Falls parade.

neighboring city will give demon
stration and the competition between
the clubs is very keen.
An executive committee of F. w.
Jodan representing the county,
Eugene Trask the farm bureau and
Charles Berry the merchants associa-
tion will have the matter in charge.
Ii In addition to the agricultural and
livestock exhibits for Bonneville
county the various implement
houses are asked and merchants in
sfituttions are asked to make ex-
hibits. There will also be stock
jtldging by the members of the coys
cattle clubs.
It is up to the mother county now
to prepare for the Homecoming Of
the daughter and show her that even
tho she may be progressing, she will
have to liven up in order to take any
prizes away from Bingham county.

"Bucking Bob" Will
Appear for Third
Time at Local Fair

"Bucking Bob," the bull owned by
M. A. Jensen of Presto, will make
his third appearance at the South
eastern Idaho Fair this month.
Bob has never been ridden
straight up to standstill by anyone.
He has roamed the range in this
country for a number of years and is
proud of the fact that he has thrown
all those that tried to conquer him.
At the fair last year Refuigo Rurz
set record by staying with him for
eight seconds. That record stood for
short time and then Paul Miles
bettered 1t by three seconds. So the
record now stands at eleven seconds
and any fashion.
"Bucking Bob" extends chal-
lenge to all the riders that he will be
here and will be in condition to roll
the boys in the dust.

HORSESHOE TEAMS
WILL MEET AT FAIR
Challenge of Bonneville
c o nty | S
Accepted

Bingham county has been called
on to defend it's honor in the grant
old game Of "barnyard golf" com
monty called horseshoe. Bonneville
county has sent in the challenge ir
the following letter received from E
W. Rowles, who has taken an activs
interest in the Southeastern Idaho
Fair:
Dear Mr.. Fjeldsted
1--WE note that the Minneapolis
state fair have arranged courts fol-
"barnyard golf" commonly known
as horseshoe pitching. We have
quite horseshoe pitching craze here
and our boys are very anxious to put
on a contest at the fair on Bonne-
vile county day and if a contest can
be arranged between our Bonneville
county boys against the best talent
in Bingham county, we can furnish
eight or more fairly good pitchers.
"This contest would be governed
by Spalding rules and regulations
and we would suggest that the fair
association offer either a cup or suit
able prizes. We think the contest
would take about an hour and a
good time to have it would be right
after the parade if that time was
convenient. There would be prac-
tically no expense to the association
outside of the prizes as all that
would be necessary would be to ar
range the courts and this would not
take anything but four or five sets
of iron pegs. These pegs should be
thirty inches long and from one-half
to three-quarters of an inch in
diameter and can be either hollow or
solid. They should be set 3S1s feet
apart with the pegs sticking out of
the ground nine inches. 1t would
not be necessary for the association
to provide any horseshoes as our
boys have a good assortment and
will be glad to bring them down
when they come.
eve will ask that you kindly ad-
wise us promptly If this contest can
be put on as our boys will want to
practice up and get in first class
oHdPc AOI ~.
Thanking you in advance for
your assistance in securing this con-
test for us, I am,
"Yours very truly,
"E. w. ROWLES."
Ray Ragan is in charge Of the
local team and all those wishing to
enter the contest are directed to get
in touch with him as soon as possi-
BILE SO that the team may start prac-
tising.
The fair association will give
cup or other suitable prize to the
winning team and it is hoped that
we may retain this prize, for un-
doubtably some Of the prizes will 60

IDLE CARS SHOULD F.
NOW Be UTILIZED
Harvest at Other Points
Will Create Demand
for Cars

Shippers Of southern Idaho must
utilize the idle cars now at their
command If they wish to avoid car
shortage later on in the season."
Such was the warning George r.
Graft, secretary of the Boise Cham
ber of Commerce traffic bureau, gave
out Thursday on the necessity Of TAX
ing advantage Of the car supply now
available.
"There are about sixty to eighty
carloads Of perishable vegetables be-
ing loaded in this section of the
state daily" Mr.. Graft pointed out.
'The railroads have been furnishing
a greater number of freight cars
than are being used each day and
are in a position to furnish about
$50. 1t is reaching the time Of year
when there will be maximum de-
mand for the refrigerator cars as
California, Oregon and Washington
products will soon be moving in
great volumes.
Apples Soon to Move
''In three weeks time there will
be a heavy movement Of apples and
prunes from all the northwestern
states. That demand for cars will
not let up until the latter part of
October or the middle of November.
It will behoove the fruit and vege-
table shippers Of Idaho to take ad-
vantage OF the favorable position in
which they are placed. There is al
most sufficient number Of re-
frigerator cars in southern Idaho
now to take care of the prune crop.
"Then there is the likelihood Of
strike of the railroad employees on
account Of the last decrease in
wages" he continued. "The serious
ness of that possibility can not be
estimated. In Idaho we have 100
refrigerator cars sent to take care of
the perishable fruit crop. The ship
pers should load and~dispatch them
before the Oregon and Washington
demands become too great or a
strike is called. 1t has been reported
from time to time that unions in the
northwest are voting 10 Oper cent in
favor Of striking.
washington May GeC Them
IF an order comes from Wash
ington for 600 cars, the railroads
will move them from the most avail
able point, which will be southern
Idaho," Mr.. Graft pointed out.
''There has always been a large |
shortage of refrigerator cars in the
past four years for moving this per-
ishable fruit along the middle of the |
season. Unless the shippers in this |
territory utilize the available equip
ment, there is a possibility that their |
demands cannot be met later on.
"The cars are not being loaded as
fast as they have been," he con-
cluded.
"This may be due to the slump in
the potato market and the determin-
alton Of farmers to wait for prices
to improve. The unfavorableness of
the prune market may also have
home bearing on this question. =

BALLONIST AT FAIR

rangements to have J.. Lestrange of
Portland here with his balloon. He

leave the balloon and open a para
chute which will break his fall, then
he will release the first parachute

Dean of Women at
State University
Expects Good Year

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, MOS
GOVT look for better year at
the university than we ever have had
BEFORE" said Miss Permeal J.
French, dean of women, on her re-
turn from a trip thru southern Idaho
on which she met prospective stu
dents In towns all the way from
Pocatello to Weiser.
There was some talk of hard
times" said Miss French, "but many
sections have redeemed themselves
with their fall crops. Prunes, po-
tatOes and apples are selling for good
prices, and districts that depend on
those crops are prosperous. The
grain situation also is good and the
dairy people are all right.
IF there were as much money in
circulation as there was even two
years ago, we would be absolutely
unable to take care of the students
who would come to the university
next month"
Long lists Of students who had ap-
piled for room reservations in
Ridenbaugh hall, the girls dormi-
tory, awaited Miss French on her ar
rival. f

THE FRESHMAN.

A young man who had gone from a
country home to college, found things
very different from what he ha3 ex-
pected. His clothes looked shabby in
his new environment, and he suspect
ed that some of his classmates were
inclined to amuse themselves at his
expense. What was still worse, his
work proved Unexpectedly hard. There
were gaps in his preparation so that
keeping up with his class taxed all
his powers. The poor fellow, anxious,
disappointed, homesick, struggled with
the temptation to give up, and go
back to the farm, but again and again
he Strengthened himself for the ordeal
by the thought 81 mustn't disappoint
Mary"
Mary was the little sister at home,
a little lame sister, who believed her
brother the most wonderful and bril-
liant of created beings. AS he thought
of her, the struggling collegian clench-
ed his hands and set his teeth. What
did it matter that some of his class
mates laughed at his awkward figure
in the old frayed suit, since in Mary's
eyes he was perfection. What did it
matter that some of the instructors
shook their heads and doubted his
ability to keep up with the class?
Mary believed in him. And whatever
happened, he must not disappoint
Mary.
The queer freshman who is the butt
OF jokes, not always good-natured,
sometimes undergoes very striking
transformation before his senior year.
No one laughed at Mary's brother
when the end of the four years came,
and he graduated at the head of his
class. Already he had showed himself
the stuff of which leaders are made.
Already it was prophesied that he
you'd go far, prophecy realized in

THE OPEN DOOR.

They searched the barn, they search
ed the shed,
And all about the old farmstead,
For Dobbin-last seen in his stall:
Then off they hurried, one and all,
To hunt him, with a right good will,
The length and breadth of Chestnut
Hill,
And disappointed, in dismay
Went home again at close of day,
Concluding they would advertise
The truant Dobbin, and a prize
Would offer for his safe return
Or cen his whereabouts to learn!
Back to the old farmhouse they went,
With their vain search footsore and
spent,
And entering the big front door,
Right in the middle of the floor
Of their best parlor Cleft to air.
That summer day so bright and fair),
Still as statue, looming white
In the gray twilight'st dusky light,
There stood old Dobbin, tall and grim!
Oh, how they all then fell on him!
They actually kissed the beast!

THE CHlLDREN'S HOUR,
MORE LIGHT, MORE PLEASURE.

Some interesting tests have recent
ly been completed to show the effect
OF, light upon ones enjoyment Of any
sport or entertainment. An audience
has been carefully watched while en-
joying some form of entertainment in
bright sunlight, in various degrees Of
subdued light and in total darkness.
The tests have been scientifically &C
curate and the effects have been meas
ured by reading the pulse, the blood
pressure and the general physical
condition of the spectators. It has
been found that the degree of enjoy
ment and the physical and mental
benefits increase steadily as the light
increases. In other words, the specta-
tor gets much more enjoyment and
benefit from the same performance if
the light be increased. In moving
picture theaters, where the house
must be kept dark, the spectator en-
joys himself less than in lighted
room or out of doors. These expert
ments confirm the opinions of many
scout leaders. It is good scout philos-
ophy and proves, what we have al
ways believed, that sunlight and out
of-door life is beneficial to us all.

afterward, that his life might have

the fact that in his darkest, weakest
hour, he could not bring himself to

boy who was doing work about the
store: you will never amount to
much; you are too small"

work he was doing and said: Small

else about this place can dol"
ooh, what is that?" asked his EN-.
ployer.
IT don't know as I ought to tell
you," he replied. But the employer
being anxious to know urged him to
tell what he could do that no one else
about the place was able to do.
"I can keep from swearing" said
the little fellow. There was a blush
on more than one face present and
no anxiety for further information
from the small boy.

No baby in the house, I know
'Tis far too nice and clean,
No toys by careless fingers strewn,
Upon the floors are seen.
No finger marks are on the panes,
No scratches on the chairs;
No wooden men set up in rows,
Or marshalled off in pairs;
No little stockings to be darned,
All ragged at the toes;
No pile of mending to be done,
Made up of baby clothes;
No little troubles to be soothed;
No little hands to fold
No grimy fingers to be washed;
No stories to be told;
No tender kisses to be given;
No nicknames, "Dove" and Mouse
No merry frolics after tea
No baby in the house!
