IDAHO CATTLE HERDS
MAKE A FINE SHOWING

Idaho ranks very high in health of
cattle according to figures recently
published by the U. S. Department If
Agriculture. In January 189 herds 81
cattle containing 1851 head of cattle
were tested for tuberculosis with onIv
27 cows reacting or 1.2 per cent. Con
sidered in comparison with other
states, Idaho should feel proud. One
large eastern state during the same
period 17.5 per cent of the cows
tested reacted, which gives some
idea of the prevalence of this insidi-
GUS cattle disease in some sections.
In Idaho there are ID herds accredit-
ed by both the state and federal gov
ernment as being free from tuber-
culosis, of which the dairy herd at the
University is one. Altogether 1897
other herds have been tested once
and found free from tuberculosis and
upon passing another test will be
placed upon the accredited list. Ger
tainly, Idaho is to be congratulated
on the low percentage of tuberculosis
found in the herds throughout the
state according to Professor H. P.
Davis, who suggests that Idaho
should make every effort to become
the first tuberculosis free state as
far as cattle are concerned

MEMS GLEE CLUB
TO GIVE CONCERT
MUSICAL ORGANIZATION WHICH
DELIGHTED ENTIRE STATE
HERE THURSDAY NIGHT.

The Mems Glee Club of the Uni
versity will give two concerts in Mos
COW this year. The reason is that in
years past there have been many
Moscow people who have been unable
to attend the concert given in the

For the benefit Of the Moscow peo-
pie at large a concert will be given
next Thursday evening in the Moscow
high school auditorium. Primarily
this concert is for the grown people.
School children are epected to attend
the concert given the following eve
ming at the University auditorium.
Tickets to the concert given at the
high school will be sold to adults for
one dollar each. Children wishing to
attend this concert may do so but will
be required to purchase adults tick
cts at the regular price of one dollar.
There willie be many people who
will not care to attend the concert in
the high school auditorium because Of
the date or possibly for various other
reasons. Therefore special arrange
ment has been made by the manage
ment of the club whereby these peo-
pie will be allowed to attend the con-
cert at the university auditorium by
purchasing tickets at the door. Ad-
ults will be admitted at one dollar and
children at fifty cents each.
School children will be given an op-
portunity to gain their tickets to the
concert at the University by selling
one adults ticket to the concert given
at the high school auditorium.
Reserved seats for the concert at
the high school on March 10Th are
now on sale at Hodgins' Drug Store.
There will be no reservations for the
