islature is in session and that the gov
ernor is trying to bring about con-
solidation of a large number of boards
and bureaus, conversation is turning
to tho work of Governor Lowden. Of
Illinois. who consolidated one hundred
and twenty-five boards and bureaus
into nine departments as follows
The Department of Finance.
The Department of Agriculture.
The Department of Labor.
The Department of Mines and Min
erals.
The Department of Public Works
and Buildings.
Tho Department of Public Welfare.

Those in charge OF the consolidation
OF the boards and bureaus here know
mat a large number of them can only
be consolidated thru constitutional
amendments. but there are some that
can be consolidated thru statutes.
Senators Kuauss and Peterson are
working along that line and have in
troduced q consolidation bill. The con-
rolidation In Illinois was brought about
thru tho adoption of a civil admins

Associations Offer
Large Variety of
Purebred Cattle

Don't worry about purebred cattle.
Buy them, breed them and feel as
sured you are identified with the
best, because the most useful bovine
breed. In America, purebred cattle
helped to pull farmers thru the war
of 186l-65. They came out of the
panic OF 1873 when General Grant
was president. The good old pure
bred COW with her milk and her beefy
progeny saved the day for many a
family during the upheavel in 1898
when the collapse Of Barring Brothers
the great bankers, shook the financial
fabric of the world. Purebreds were
made to suffer when the financial
storm of 1907 under Roosevelt
broke, but ever and always those who
were able to weather thru periods Of
depression better than they could
have done without them. They are
better sape today to stand any strain
of after-war readjustment than those
tied up with breeds in which reason
has run riot and crazy imitation of
values has been conspicuous. The
people of America and of the world
never were more in need of what
good purebred cattle can do for them
than right now
An excellent opportunity is Of
fered any one desiring to add to their
herds or to get good start of pure
breds when the Southeastern Idaho
Shorthorn Breeders association holds
it's second annual sale at the fair
grounds, March 23, or by getting in
touch with Arthur Caine, secretary
Of the Southern Idaho Hereford
Breeders association, Soda Springs,

pride. He spent number Of his de-
clining years on little farm in the

Shoe Sale Opens
With Record Break
ing Attendance

The shoe sale announced by the
Beachy Shoe Store as 'Idaho's Great
est Shoe Sale" came up to the re-
quirements in every way. The doors
were opened at exactly 10 a. m. FRI
day and crowds of bargain seekers,
who had been on the ground half an
hour before the announced opening,
rushed in. With all the extra force
of clerks 1t was impossible to serve
every one. All day long the crowds
poured into the store and at diff
ferent times it was necessary to lock
the doors in an effort to clear the
store so others could get in.
According to reports from the
Beachy store at Idaho Falls, the same
thing is happening there and the
sales are declared to be the most sue
cessful ever held in this part of the
state. te ,5s
j. s. Harlan, the sales manager in
charge, says, "At the close of the first
day, our racks were completely
cleaned out"

Grimm Alfalfa Has
Brought $780, 900
Into Bingham County


The growers of Grimm alfalfa seed
held meeting at Blackfoot last
Thursday and still further developed
their organization for, their work.
they were aided by B. F.. Sheehan,
seed commissioner Of Idaho, who in
structed them in many matters re-
garding their work. Mr.. Sheehan
went last fall to make study of the
phases of producing pure seed, of
keeping 1t clean and investigating
many matters of marketing and he
instructed the Grimm growers in
everything he could at that meeting.
The Grimm growers have just fin-
ished marketing q carload Of pure
Grimm seed at SO cents per pound
making a total Of 100000 pounds
they have sold of the 1920 crop at
that price. This specialized industry
has brought about $4,000 into
this county during these hard times
and Grimm alfalfa seed is said to be
the only farm product known to the
market that has not fallen in price
during the past few months.

Tax Information
Needed to Present
To Tax Commission,

The Republican office wants in
formation as to who it was that ship
ped trainload of cattle from Mon
tana to Sterling in May, 1920 and
unloaded them on the range and
grazed them westward from there.
Also who was 1t that owned train
load of cattle that was shipped in
from Gentle valley and unloaded on
the range at Sterling? Can anyone
give us the names of the owners of
two other trainloads that were un-
loaded at Sterling in the month of
May and ranged in this county for
a while? y.
We need that information to pre-
sent to the tax commission on Tues
day evening or as soon after that as
we can get it. In January we pub
lished an article saying that it is re-
ported that four trainloads of cat
tie unloaded at Sterling were not as
sessed and we need some more
definite information to lay before the
tax committee SO they will know to
a certainty whether they we're as
sessed or not.

Sugar Company Ask
Correction Regard
ing Sugar Payments

The Beet Growers Sugar company
asks us to make a correction of an
article published last Thursday re-
garding the sale of their 1920 sugar
crop. Our statement read that they
had received $4,000 on the sale of a
large amount of sugar at IA cents a
pound. Il.
They inform us that the payment
was $500,000 and the price was
$14.5O a hundred pounds Sugar
went so low that the brokers who had
contracted to buy their crop refused
to accept it or to give them shipping
instructions and litigation is the re-
suit. They agree that the company is
in good financial condition and claim
that it might be an unfair and un-
just reflection upon the credit of the
company to use the statement we did
regarding the contracts offered by
the several companies at the Poca-
tello meeting last week and say that
there was question raised about the
ability of the Rigby company to pay
for the 1921 crop Of beets owing to
the litigation we speak Of. They say
that all the sugar companies are
borrowing money and they regard it
as unfair to themselves when any
one made the statement that there
was question about the ability of
the Rfgby company to pay.
The report says they had paid IS
per cent Of the last years beet crop
and had plenty of money coming to
pay all obligations as soon as the
litigation released it. The amount
tied up in litigation is $213,0O0 and
judgment against the brokers will be
collected. ...

Receiver Appointed
for Ditch Watering
Valuable Lands

7 The Peoples Highline Ditch COM
pany has gone into the hands of a
receiver to see what they shall do
about an Indebtedness of about
100000 that has been accumulating
for several years. The company has
been very aggressive in making i'm
provements and extensions and have
not succeeded in floating some loans
which they desired to make. The OBJ
legations have been carried mostly by
the local people, furnishing the SER
vices and goods and when the officers
Of the company were unable to pay
in money, they gave the promissory
notes Of the company for the amounts
Of the Indebtedness. They have kept
on issuing notes until there are now
302, varying in amounts from $4,000
apiece down. It appears that practic-
ally everybody who has been furnish
ing goods or service in recent years
is holding some of this paper or
carrying Indebtedness on open book
accounts.
The assets OF the company are
represented by canal tapping the
Peoples ditch above Moreland and
extending down thru the lava beds
to the lands lying to the westward
from what is known as the point of
the lavas beyond Moreland. There
are some expensive fumes and cut
or two thru the lava beds that were
blasted out of the solid rock.
The company made sale of bonds
one year ago at 80 cents on the dol
lar, and were about to get delivery
of all the money they needed to clean
up all obligations when the bond
market went to pieces SO badly that
the money was not obtained. When
it became impossible to realize on
that, Frank Weise brought the action
that resulted in the appointment of
Charles Simons as receiver, and all
claims must be filed right away to
enable him to make a sale next month
so it may be possible to secure de-
livery of water for irrigation this sea-
son from the new management.
The officers of the company are
E. M. Galbraith, president; W. I.
Fritz, secretary and Lewis Robbins,
G. F. Hansbrough and Charles Booth
members of the board.
j. w. Jones of Blackfoot is the
attorney for the plaintiff.
The canal supplies water for lot
Of valuable lands lying westward
from Moreland.

PROSPERITY JUST AHEAD

Everything points to better
times. Business men are get
ting ready for big business in
the near future. Optimism is
in the air.
But to have better times, we
INST have better work. From
high to low, everybody must put
his shoulders to the wheels and
exert every effort to yet things
done.
Prosperity must be paid for.
1t will come for nothing. It de-
ponds upon effort, strenuous eff
fort, concentrated effort.
The Loyal true American
works for the good of his coun-
try. AT the present time his
country needs q revival of hard
work, common sense, and faith
full performance Of duties.
This is the time when the viii
ner should be ostracised, the
crouch banished, and the dis
codraged inspied. Super-ef-
fort is demanded in the ofise,
fartory, mine, mill and on the
farm.
