More Care Needed
in Bringing up Of
/ Younger Generation

Reclamation of the home was one
of the subjects upon which Governor
D. w. Davis laid particular stress in
his address before the Progressive
Business club at the weekly noon
luncheon Friday. Idaho's chief exc.
cutive emphasized the need OF
greater care in the bringing up Of
the younger generation. He particu-
larly pointed out the necessity Of
parents keeping their children away
from harmful temptation.
Automobiles and motion pictures
came in for severe criticism during
the course of his talk "As long as
the rictures shown on the screen
confine themselves to educational,
religious and highly moral themes,
they are worthy of praise" he de-
clared But the pictures shown in
many cities depict crime, and are at
times extremely suggestive to young
children Too much freedom in use
of automobiles by young people is
lead ng to the downfall of many"
The need of weston publicity in
the east was strongly urged by the
governor. Conservation of water and
the reclamation of arid land be con-
sidered much more important than
the development of electrical power
Brief mention was made by the chief
executive in his address of the east
ern caravan that is headed for Idaho.

This breeder has large and I'M

bred cows, the herd average being
more than $4,000 pounds Of milk a
year. Offers of a similar character
have been made by several other
breeders in different sections Of the
United States, says the department
specialist, all of which indicates that
the value Of the association plan as
a means Of improving the quality of
dairy cattle is becoming more general
~ recognized.
\ When a bull association Is formed
one dairy breed, usually the one pre-
dominating in the locality, is selected
for that association, and purebred
bulls Of that breed are used to i'm
prove the herds. AS time goes on q
number of good purebred and grade
herds of the same breed are devel-
oped. When one breeder. supplies a
number Of bulls to one association
these bulls, generally Of similar breed
ing, make it possible to concentrate
the blood of certain families among
25O to 800 cows. Each bull is used
in each block for two years. Thus the
four or five bulls are used copsecu-
lively for eight or ten years, develop

TO BE A SCOUT.

He wasn't scout, tho he wore the
pin,
For the scouting program had never
soaked in;
He claimed troop and registered
name,
But he never had learned to play the
game.
He tied the knots and he ran the pace.
He knew the code and kept a smile
on his face;
He built his fire, he boiled the pot,
But that is just as far as he got.
He learned the oath, its parts he
knew,
But the inner meaning had never
soaked through,
For If it had and he meant what he
said,
He'd have been our pride like the
sacred dead.
You can't be scout by Joining i"

It's more than a club and some to

BOY
SCOUTS
Conducted by National Council Of the
Boy Scouts of America.)
SCOUTING AND CITIZENSHIP

In general human beings may be
roughly classified into two divisions,
the kind who throw banana peels and
waste paper on the sidewalk and the
kind who not Only refrain from such
acts Of selfish responsibility them
selves, but pick up banana peels and
waste paper from the sidewalk and
deposit them in the proper receptacle.
II is the difference between the spir-
Its of good citizenship and bad citi-
zenship.
It is the glory Of the scout move
ment that it is intoxicating all over the
country the spirit of responsible citi-
zenship il its growing boys. Out in
Ogden City, last winter, a boy scout
quietly posted himself at dangerous
ly slippery point on the street where
a great many. persons had been falling
to the huge amusement of guffawing
crowd Of by-standers, warned people
Of the danger, and helped women
across. Nobody told him to do it. He
just did it because it was somebody's
lob ard he made It his, as a respon-
sible citizen.
Another significant little story is
told of a group Of scouts who had
for weeks been taking care of dam
gerous street crossing near school
building, guiding smaller children
across In safety, day in and day out.
Nobody knew they were doing 1t, no.
body asked them to do it. They were
not looking for praise from anyone for
doing 1t. It was a job to be done by
somebody and they were glad to take
it on because they were scouts and
therefore responsible citizens.-Scout-
ing.

CAMPAIGN FOR BETTER sIREs
Nearly 100000 Head Of Stock En-
rolIed-Large Number of Fe-
males choWn in Records.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture.)
In the three months period ending
December 81, 1920, more than $4,000
head Of live stock and poultry were
enrolled by 4S6 owners in the Better
Sires-Better Stock" campaign now in
progress to improve the quality Of do
nestle animals in the United States.
This is large increase over the num-
Der enrolled during the previous quar-
ter. OF the stock listed, $3.50 were
males and, in accordance with the
provisions Of the campaign, all these
were purebred. The female stock
numbered 87,703, and the owners have
pledged themselves to breed this stock
to purbred sires only.
The county showing greatest actiy
ity in the campaign for better live
stock during the quarterly period was
Saline county, Neb. Next in order
are Stafford county, Va; Tippecanot
county, Ind; Pulaski county, Va.
Fauquier county, Va, and Platte
county, Neb. Craig county, Va,
stands out as the principal county.
since the beginning Of the campaign,
In which there appears to be strong
tendency for crossbreeding. During
the quarter just ended II Better
Sires-Better Stock" emblems were
issued to live stock owners in Craig
county and all Of them owned cross
breds. Crossbred animals were i'm
partially distributed among all class
es Of stock, including poultry.
The records of the better-slre cam
paign continue to show that persons
using purebred sires for all classes of
animals owned have large number
Of purebred females as we'll. In fact,
of the 87,703 females recorded during
the last quarter 61,504 were purebred.
The remainder, arranged according to
number, were grades, crossbreds and
scrubs.
Significant figures in the progress of
the nationwide campaign to increase
the use Of purebred sires are the fol-
lowing: 49,
Up to December 81, 1920, the total
number of persons enrolled was 3,243.
OF these 1,075 are in Virginia, which
Is the highest state in number Of en-
rollments, and 446 are in Pulaski
county, Va, which retains its place
as the foremost county.
The total stock listed Is 394954, OF
which 238,122 are poultry and 156 SS2
larger animals. Among the latter cat
