To ReOrganize Farm Bureau

T. ]. Jones, president of the local
farm bureau, has called a meeting of
those interested in the farm bureau
movement for Saturday afternoon,
January %, at o'clock at the court
house The purpose of the meeting is
to effect a reorganization of the bur-
eau, if it is thought best, and to take
steps looking to securing another
county agent.
Several of the farmers are very anx-
ious that the work of the county agent
in Boundary county should not be
given up. In Bonner county the agent
lis doing great good. Among other
things he has developed the certified
potato seed industry there which is
bringing in handsome returns to Bon
ner county farmers, and COW testing
clubs are increasing the returns from
the dairy herds. 1t is stated that one
Boundary county farmer would have
had several hundred dollars worth OF
certified seed potatoes to put on the
market last fall, if a county agent
had been here to give the potatoes the
last inspection. But the inspection
was not made and the farmer was the
loser.

will be cut down, and fields of alfalfa
will take their places, says the Sand

the big orchard of nearly 500 acres has
not been a success, but Mr.. Shepherd
feels sure it can be made a great sue
cess as a dairy farm. There is al
ready a herd of GO dairy COWS on the
ranch and they are doing we'll, but the
purpose of Mr.. Shepherd is to make ii
one of the model dairy farms of the
northwest. This is only another indi-
cation of how Bonner and Boundary
counties are rapidly coming to the
front as a dairy country.

Plus the Second and incidentally was
very close student of contemporary

churches of the Czechs possessed
many high and wide windows which
were brightly and artistically decor
ated, and such style Of decorating was
not confined to the churches in the
large cities and towns, but even the
distant hamlets prided themselves on
churches containing windows orna-

curriculum of the division Of techni-

included courses in painting, wood

degree was ever conferred on student
unless he could exhibit sufficient apti-

FACTS ABOUT MILK AS FOOD
A an Article Of Diet There Are Many
Things That Are Not Properly
Understood.

The use of milk as a food has been
so extensively exploited by the milk
interests that there exists a somewhat
erroneous idea about it which q re-
cent speaker, before the American Ped
iatric society, is endeavoring to cor
rect.
These errors principally concern the
group of children between the ages Of
1 and 6 years. These errors might be
classified under the headings: ~
Prolonged use of milk as an exclusive
article Of diet. (2) Increased guam
titles of milk given along with other
foods.
Milk might not only be used too
long as an exclusive article of diet and
in excessive quantities with other
foods, but it's nutritional value might
be injured by boiling.
The laity were taught, and rightly
so, that milk was an ideal breeding
place for germs, and that the growth
of these germs might be inhibited by
keeping the milk on ice, or the milk
might be brought to a boil. The use
of boiled milk was becoming more
prevalent. and many injuries to nutri-
ton occurred.

SPARROW At SERVICE
Bird In Church When Service Was
Going On.

Bird In Church When Service Was
Going On.
Emulation Of st. Francis Of Assist,
who 100 years ago preached to birds
and called them 'little brothers and
sisters" is being practiced at Spring
field, Ill.,, involuntarily by Rev. e. G..
Sandmeyer. pastor of Laurel NJ. e.
church, who for the third time the
other day had birds In the audience.
Recently a common sparrow few in
at the doorway while the audience was
bowed in prayer. 1t perched on an
electric light fixture and sat there un-
til singing commenced, then chirped
and flew to another fixture. It re-
NAMED throughout the service and de-
parted through a window.
This same bird, 1t is believed, made
its first visit some weeks ago. Two
weeks ago it returned with q mate
The other day it was alone. Doctor
Sandmeyer indicated he was not en-
tirely pleased with the visits, as they
had a tendency, he said. to distract
the attention of the congregation.
