Armaments Limiting Conference.


In Senator Capper's memorial to
the Peace Conference at Washington
as polished Nov. 10 in "Capper's
Weekly he has again construed
Micahs prophecy of n cry in the last
days to beat swords into plowshares,
to teach disarmament program
which is just the opposite of what it
teaches. The prophecy says, but in
the last days il shall come to pass that
many nations shall come and
say, come let us go up to the noun
tain of the Lord and he will
teach us of his ways and he shall
judge among many people and rebuke
strong nations afar off and they shah
beat their swords into plfFshares and
their spears Unto prunin{ hooks. Ma
tion shall not.lst up swof ofd against ma
ton neither shall they learn war any
more. Micah 4 Is.
You will notice that it is not the
Lord that saNt such disarmament, will
occur but that many nations" shall
come and say this. The prophecy Is
really prediction of a disarmament
cry to be heard from many nations"
'in the last days" The Lord tells us
in the following statement that the
nations instead OF disarming will pre-
among the Gentiles, prepare war,
wake up the mighty men, let them
come up. Beat your plowshares into
swords and your pruninghorks into
spears, let the weak say am strong.
Assemble yourselves and come all We

er roundabout Put We in the

get you down, for the press is full,
the vats overflow, for their wicke .lness
is great. Multitudes, multitudes in the
valley of decision, for the Day of the
Lord is near in the valley of decision"
Candidly, what do you think about
these plain statements in the prophe-
cies of God to you? By comparing
these with the prophecy of | Thess.
5-i-3 which says; when they shall
say peace and safety (safety from
war) then suddenly destruction
cometh upon them." We have a
view here in truth of what is before
US. A complete picture, and one tru-
ly that is worthy of our serious con-
sideration. 1t should enlist US in an
untiring and thorough investigation Of
Bible prophecy until we clearly see
where we are in the stram of time
and fully understand what constitutes
preparation for the judgment.

Seals. The campaign for the sale of
these seals is now on and as it is in
the hands of the school children it is
sure to be a successful one. The town
has been divided into districts, each
cne to be canvassed by a health squad
from one of the upper grades. The
business section is allotted to the
high school. 1t is hoped that every
business firm will purchase heath
bond with plenty of the seals to use
on all statements and letters to be
mailed between now and Christmas.
In planning the household expenses
put something aside that you may be
prepared to buy your seals when the
young solicitors call. In the last six
teen years the mortality from tuber-
culosis has been reduced 10 per cent
through organized campaign against
the dread disease. Let US give all the
support we can to the Anti-Tubarcu-
loSis association in this wonderful
cause.

YOUNG MAN OF SALMON
IN POCATELLO HOSPITAL.

Thomas Kane was called to Poca-
tello on Tuesday by the illness of his
elder son Walter, who Is in hospital
there. Young Kane was taken i'll
while at work not long ago up in the
timber and his recovery not being
satisfactory hospital attention was
found necessary. Report from the hos

tents condition was not reassuring.
Young Kane is Salmon high
school boy Of fine promise in sturdy
stock and manliness of character. I'M

ferer from hay-fcver, otherwise being
as sound as a brick.

-1ffiik are omitted, according to the fig
ures recently announced by The United
States Department of Agriculture. The
cost OF the raw milk delivered at the
dairy ranged from 81 cents TO 10 cents
per quart. The total cost of op-
erating the dairy plant, including the
pasteurizing and bottling of the milk,
ranged from cent to IA cents per
quart, and the cost of delivering the
milk from the dairy to the consumer
ranged from 1.61 cents to 30 cents per
quart.
The item of administrative expense
@ar:es widely, being as low as two
tenths of cent per quart for one
small company and as high as / cent
per quart for large concern.
Two of the seven companies covered
were small concerns which produced
their own milk supply. The cost of
producing the milk for these COM
panies in 1920 was SO cents per quart,
which is very similar to the price paid
for milk by the larger concerns.
One of the items of cost which has
attracted most attention among stu
dents of the milk business is the So
called "bottle loss" The depart
ment's study indicates that for the
companies covered in Columbus this
item ranges from one-tenth to two
tenths of a cent per quart.
Great difficulty was experienced in
getting any satisfactory information
concerning the shrinkage which takes
place in the handling and delivery of
milk, but according to the best data
available this item amounts to be-
tween 2.3 per cent and 5.5 per cent of
the total volume of milk.
Columbus is city of 7,031 popula-

about 27,000,000 quarts of milk per an

LOOKING INTO HEALTH CON-
DITI0NS IN RURAL SCHOOLS

Miss Lunney, county health con-
servator, is this week making visits
to rural schools, in turn having al
ready appeared at Lemhi, Tendoy
and Baker. Ii was gratifying to
find well organized systems in all
these important schools looking to
providing hot lunches for the pupils
as tending to best results in teaching
them. In this work the teachers
themselves cheerfully cooperate at
all the schools, while the trustees
have provided modest appliances for
the cooking, even going so far ut one
school, that at Baker, to pay for the
food to be served.
Miss Lunney found only a few mi
nor defects in health among the pu-
pills and these are to be corrected
without delay. She had nothing but
praise for the work in these school
rooms.

fairly representative of many Middle
Western cities.
The investigation covered seven
companies, which sold about 1850, 900
quarts of milk and cream in 1920, or
approximately Go per cent of the total
quantity consumed. The companies
ranged in size from a very small one
wagon concern up TO the largest, which
operated ~ milk routes.
From the point of view of the farm
er and the consumer. the important
question is, What does 1t cost to han
die the milk from the farm to the
consumert The cost of raw milk was
between 63 per cent and 20 per cent
of the total cost of the milk as II
reaches the consumer.
During the period under study the
retail price of Grade A milk in Co
.umbus. as quoted by the dealers in
vestigated, ranged from 10 cents to
14.5 cents per quart. though during
1920 the two small dealers sold their
milk, which comes from tuberculin-
tested cows, for Is cents per quart.
At the same time the wholesale price
of milk ranged from u cents to 12Is
cents.
The average number OF customers
per route in 1920 ranged from 16y to
297, and the number of quarts per
wagon ranged from lis to 37S, the
average being 262. 1t is noteworthy
that the most profitable company was
the one having the largest average

WORK OUTLINED IN
WAR FINANCING"
HOW DAIRY STOCK is BOUGHT
WITH LOANS FROM Gp.FfN-

Jerome NewS.l
! TEE project of bringing high grade
dairy stock to the North Side Tract
through the financing program of the
North Side Livestock Loan company,
operating through the War Finance
corporation, is progressing satisfac-
torily. Parties representing the loan
company ale already in the dairy
fields purchasing the stock and initial
shipments may be expected to arrive
in & week or ten days.
The scope of the local financing
company has been somewhat enlarg-
ed and the plan now is to extend it's
activities to refinancing stock already
on the tract, this class of loans being
at present carried by local banks.
This plan would relieve the local
banks of these loans which in turn
would enable the banks to reloan in
other channels. 1t is believed that
such plan is highly desirable from
every point of consideration. 1t is
satisfactory to the banks and re-fi-
nances the farmers stock at lower
rate of interest, which is also a de-
cided advantage. 1t will result in
bringing more of the War Finance
corporation fund onto the tract than
was at first anticipated.
w. +. Myers, recently engaged by
the county commissioners as jerome
county farm agent under the new ar
rangement made with the extension
department, is one of the men who
viii act in making the selection of
the cows. His employment, or the
employment OF man of like ability,
was demanded by the War Finance
corporation and his expenses are be-
ing paid by the state. Mr.. Myers is
n recognized authority on the dairy
cow and has mad such experience in
this line in Wisconsin. He is attend
ing the National Live Stock show in
Chicago but will join the party of To-
cal men in the dairy fields of Wiscon-
sin and on his judgment will the pur-
chases finally be made.
So far there have been filed appli-
cations for about $3.50 cows, and it is
believed that this number will be in
| creased by 1000 before the campaign
closes. This stock does not have to
be all purchased at once and the pur-
chases may be strung along until
next July if desired. Once the ship
ments begin to arrive so that the
character of the stock may be seen, il
is believed that many who are now
hesitating will file their applications.
Shipments will begin as soon as car
loads are purchased and assembled
so that in few days the initial ship
ments ought to begin arriving.

1t has been reported, however, that
British representations submitted
plan TO give Ireland stauts Of "asso-
citation" with the empire and allow
her an almost complete measure of
self government to be exercised by
separate parliaments in Ulster and
South ireland, respectively, and by
central council jointly chosen.
This brought Ulster again into the
negotiations and compelled Premier
Lloyd George to defer his trip to the
Washington conference on limitation
of armament so that he could devote
his time to an effort to overcome Ul-
ster's hesitation or objection to CO.
operate with the south of Ireland in
any form Of common government.
The general understanding was that
the Sim Fein 1elgates insisted that
there must be no partition of Ireland
into north and south, with different
forms of government and different
relations to the empire.
To reconcile these conflicting view
points, Lloyd George invited Sir
James Craig, the Ulster premier, to
come to London TO talk things over.
The situation was so delicate that Sir
James desired the support and adj
vice of other Ulster leaders, and final
" all the members of the Ulster cab
met were called to London. Union
ist opinion in Englani has been
steadfsstly against any "coercian Of
Ulster" II was then generally con-
ceded that one of the most difficult
stages Of the negotiations had been
reached.
Peace in Ireland means property
for the people of the new free state,
which is an associate on terms Of
equality with the other common
weaiths of the British empire. The
soil is rich and the market for all the
agricultural products is close at hand
in England. In the course of time
the oud bitterness will undoubtedly
0ass away and the two countries,
which are more or less dependent upon
each other viii enjoy amicable rela-
tions. At least this should be the
case.
The people of the United States
will rejoice over the news that an
agreement has been reached and will
do what they can TO assist in putting
"The Irish Free State" upon its feet.
In view of all that has transpired
since the negotiations began, the Sim
Fein leaders appear 10 have won by
far the major portion Of their con
tentions, while Premier Lloyd George
has once more given proof of leader
hip.

HEAVY ANCIENT FORESTS
IN NORTH DAKOTA

Fossils have been aptly called the
illustrations in the great book record
ing the worlds history, the pages of
which are layers of rock that form
the outer part of the crust of the
earth. By looking at some of the
Photographic reproductions of fossil
plants we can restore in imagination
the ancient vegetation of the world.
Fossil plants are very abundant in
the Fort Union formation, series of
Tertiary rock beds in North Dakota,
where they are found in the sand
stone, in the harder concretions or
lenses, and in the clay between the
beds of sandstone. Most of them, es-
pecially those in the clay, are pre-
served with remarkable fidelity.
About 300 species of plants from this
formation have been described, and
the total number of species it con-
tains may perhaps reach 500 or more,
according to the United States Geo
logical survey, department of the in
terror.
This abundant fossil flora shows
that what is now an almost treeless
plain was once covered with splendid
forests of hardwoods, interspersed
with scattered conifers and ginkgos.
The presence of numerous and at
many places thick beds of Ignite
make it clear that in this region there
were great swamps, which must have
existed with but little change for long
periods of time. Among the plants
of this epoch were fig trees and fan
palm with leaves or 6 feet across,
indicating that the climate was as
warm or warmer than that now pre-
vailing on the South Atlantic slope of
the United States.

cream, showing the farmers share
and the proportion Of the price that

This analysis shows that out of each
dollar paid for cream intended for
butter the farmer receives "a cents;
the cost of transportation and main

cents.
For every dollar expended for milk

ficdent American citizens massed in | their demand for recognition of the Irish Republic to make it no longer possible to ignore that demand Let there be no mistake. The form of government the people of Ireland want and must have and the methods the people of Ireland must employ to secure that government eS- Sentially must remain the concern of the people of Ireland. It is for the people of America and the people of America alone to decide whether or not they will asSit them. If they do wish to assist the way is clear. In can dor and sincerity let me ask you to take your stand definitely on one side or the other. Nevermore clearly than today may it be said of the Irish cause that he that IS not with us is against us.
 This is no time for shil1yshal1ying. Either you do or do not wish to help If you do, join the association. If
 you do not join the association, at

England conducts her at tack on the Irish republic, in a mili- tary sense, along three lines. The first method is the cO1d-b1OOded as Sassination time and time again of the heads of municipalities and local government boards in an attempt to paralyze local administration of the law. The second fight is the use of the weapon of destruction against the homes, factories, creameries, and workshops of Ireland in the perfectly obvious effort to create want and misery among the Irish people in the hope that what they have failed to will secure by hunger. A salient ex- ample is my own city of Cork with three acres of the heart of the bus mess district in ruins, her public buildings in ruins, and some 500 of Cork's young men in internment camps or on the run, and her business life thoroughly diSorganized.
 ''The third line is the actual nli1i- tary fight Even though the odds are long and heavy and the dice loaded against them, if the fight in Ireland were confined to that I wouldn't worry about Ireland. Even though the soldiers of the Irish republican and capture the weapons of their en- emies before they can equip them selves to fight, net a. day passes when they are not able to give back to that imperial army not only as much as they receive, but more.
