Finances of Cache
Valley Are Kept up
by Dairy Industry

LOGAN, Utah.-At a recent meet
ing of the Cache valley Chamber of
Commerce members, the Importance
OF the milk and dairy industry to
Cache valley were discussed. The
fact was brought out that Cache val
ley is in better shape financially than
any section of the west, all due to
the daily pay roll made possible by
the milk and dairy industry.
Prof. Cain, field agent Of the Sego
Milk Products company, stated that
bankers all over the west pointed
out Cache valley, Utah, as the sec
tion Of the country that had suffered
least during the present financial
depression. Prof. Cain stated that
farmers from Idaho had come to him
and stated that Idaho wanted to in
crease the dairy herds of that state,
as experience had taught them that
dairying is valuable and money
making adjunct to farming.

LECIONARRIES PLAN
PROGRAM FOR DAY
Armistice Day Will Be
Fittingly Observed
in Blackfoot

At meeting of the American
Legion Post No. % held Friday even
ing committees were appointed and
tentative plans formed for the
Armistice Day program. A commit
tee representing the Bingham county
chapter of War Mothers met with the
legion in regard to the War Mothers
annual banquet.
Among the events is an exhibition
drill to be put on by members of the
legion and members of troop B. This
will begin the afternoon program
and will be followed by centipede
race and a number Of other sports
that lightened the life of the soldier,
sailor and marine.
Following the legion's program
there will be football game held be-
tween st. Anthony and Blackfoot
high schools. st. Anthony won from
the local team Friday, but the Black
foot boys are determined to show the
visitors something about the game
when they come down here on
Armistice Day.
At o'clock that evening the War
Mothers annual banquet for ex-
service men will be held either in the
X. p. or Odd Fellows hall. This
event takes better with the vets than
any other part because they do not
have to fight for place in line and
they know that even if they are
little late there will be some set
aside for them. The fellows GER
tainly enjoy putting their feet under
the table that will carry mothers
cooking.
After the banquet the third annual
ball of Stewart Hoover Post will be
held in the Legion hall.

FEDERAL AID WILL
Be GIVEN STOcKMEN
Arrangements are Made
With War Finance
Board

The war finance board has COM
pleted arrangements by which fed
eral aid can be secured in the form
of loans for stockmen in Utah and
Idaho. e. M. Kennedy returned the
last of the week from Salt Lake City,
where he was called to attend an ex-
ecutive board meeting to receive the
details of the transactions necessary
to place money at the disposal of
stockmen.
A change was made in the organ
ization, so that Utah and Idaho each
has an Independent board to handle
the business. e. M. Kennedy repre-
sents the southeastern part Of Idaho,
John Thomas Of Gooding, the south
ern part and three others the rest
of the state in the west and north.
All applications for loans in the
eastern part of Idaho are referred
to Mr.. Kennedy, and after receiving
his approval they are sent to Boise,
then to Salt Lake and Washington,
D. G., and 1t is possible to get money
inside of two weeks from the time
the application is made.
1t is the purpose Of this board to
secure loans for stockmen, who in
turn desire to buy hay and other
feed for their cattle or sheep, and
thus be making a sale for hay and
grain and otherwise setting produc-
ton into operation again. A large
part of the 1920 hay crop is still in
the stacks and the 1921 crop added
to it makes a serious situation which
the war finance board is seeking to
relieve.
The money is available now in
sums of $4,000 and over.

Is scheduled at the third annual
Ogden Livestock Show, which will
be held in Ogden for five days, Janu-
ary 3 to Z, 1922, according to Secre-
tary Jesse s. Richards.
It isn't to be an exhibit of women s

breeds with their ''manes In braids"
a la Sis Hopkins; decked out in rib
bons Of all colors; and all ready for

bing bursh, oiled and polished, and
roofing around in pens filled high
with clean straw, will interest every
one.
Livestock worth thousands of
dollars will be exhibited at the show
this year." announced Secretary
Richards recently. tAnd it will be
in the finest shape, too. There won't
be a person at the show who will be
dressed as correctly or with as much
style as the horses, cows, hogs and
sheep exhibited there"
Many visitors to the show are due
for surprises when they attend, ac-
cording to officials. Rapid progress
has been made in stocking th9.farms
Of the territory with pure bred live
stock, and many prize animals to be
shown at the coming Ogden livestock
show have already won grand
championships at some Of the largest
and best fairs and stock shows In the
country. l.
Already enough entries 1aFe' been
promised TO make Cne snow al least
twice as large as the one held last
year.
Admission to- the show will be free
and as the entertainment committee
has arranged for variety of enter
such as dancing, boxing
contests, wrestling matches, and the |
big stockmen's banquet and ball, a
great time is promised for the large |
crowd that will visit Ogden during |
stock show week.-Downey Idahoan.

Southard Trial is
Still in Session; Re-
buttal Commenced

The trial Of Mrs. Lydia Meyer
Southard still continues at Twin
Falls, Idaho, In the effort to show
whether or not she poisoned her hus-
band there last year.
Much evidence has been intro
duced to indicate that she has
poisoned four other persons, and all
by the same means, taking the
poison of fly paper and placing 1t in
the food OF the intended victims, the
object being to collect the life in
surance after death. In the Twin
Falls case she evidently became
alarmed and left the country with
out trying to collect the insurance
and went to Honolulu.
The defense has commenced it's
rebuttal and they are seeking to
show that 1t was case OF typhoid
fever instead Of arsenic poisoning.

TEACHERS BOOST

Mr.. and Mrs. Byrd Trego received
the following note from one Of the
teachers, after returning from the
institute. Her people have been en-
gagged in newspaper work and that
led her to visit The Republican office
and that accounts for the last line in
the letter. Here is the way it runs:
Dear Friends:
Just note to tell you how very
much we truly appreciate Blackfoot's s
wonderful hospitality.
Personally, can't ever forget It;
the memory of that happy, profitable
week will always be with me.
You see what Blackfoot did when
1t turned the members Of the insti-
tute at large-800 full-fedged
Blackfoot boosters. +
Sister and enjoyed our rides, and
oh! that office!
Best wishes from
MARGARET KYLE.

LOCAL BOYS PLAYING

Whether local boys are playing
football or not can be determined
by looking over the sporting page Of
the intermountain papers issued
since Friday evening.

the University of Idaho in their game

Salt Lake Friday until he was taken
out on account Of injuries. The
Idaho school lost a hard fought
game, the score being II to Z.
On the Tech field Friday John
Powers exchanged victory for defeat
when he replaced Keane. the Idaho
Tech fullback and in the last Ave
minutes of play carried the ball
fifty-five yards and made it possible
for Peyton Hurt an Aberdeen lad
to carry 1t over the line for the
game against the college OF Idaho.

Follows Lightning
Flash in Washington

EVERETT, Wash.-The old say

mama "fell from the sky" None
of the stricken geese showed any
signs Of burn from the lightning
flash. They were literally electro
cuted in mid-air and fell to their
death.

ROPED HIS FINGER

Z Richard T. Reed of Presto did
some roping last week and burnt his
hand with the rope. After finishing
with the animal he remarked to
some Of his companions that he
burnt his fingers on the rope, and
at the same time took off his glove
and shook his hand as person will
when it is tingling with pain. While
he did this 1t was noticed that he
was sprinkling some blood around
and one Of his companions noticed
that one finger was gone and called
his attention to It.
! Mr.. Reed looked at 1t and said,
well that settles it; / will never
be able to do much with q fiddle" !"
The rest Of the finger was found in
the glove.

PASSED
REGARDING DANCES
People Should not F orm
Opinions From
Hearsay

There have been some remarks
that the dances given at the Ameri-
can Legion hall were not so well
managed as they ought to be and
that there was need of chaperones
and regulations, or the presence of
parents. There was talk that the
music was furnished by "niggers, ;,
that there were improper dances and
that the stairway was more or less
obstructed with loafers, who smoked
cigarettes and talk bad talk and that
persons attending the dance had to
come in contact with all this.
Saturday night we went to see
how improper it was, and found
"niggers" furnishing good dance
music and there did not seem to be
anything Objectionable on their part.
Young fellows seemed to be the man
agement, and everything was quiet
and courteous. Everybody danced
as they pleased, but everybody's con-
duct and dancing seemed above
criticism. A few fellows lodged in
the stairway at times, but we saw
no smoking and IL there were i'm
proper remarks we did not hear
them. They all seemed to be doing
as they pleased, there was no evi-
dence of restraint, and there ap-
peared to be no occasion for re-
straint.
We suggest that parents who are
worried about the way the dances
are conducted shall not take here
say nor press reports, but 60 few
times themselves and get the spirit
of the occasions. Perhaps the
will play some of the old
tunes, the waltz and polka and give
them chance to get into the game
themselves. That will be more fun
than to stay at home and feel un-
easy. Do you remember that when
you were Of the dancing age, there
were people who were convinced that
you were going straight to the
dickens because you waltzed and
somebody had hold of you while 1t
was going on?
There is dance held every month
or so at the tabernacle and the high
school classes occasionally hold
dances at the Tech. At both these
places the dances are conducted In
such manner as to be beyond re-
proach. In the case of the dances
given by the high school students
the class sponsors are in charge and
the students must leave the building
by II o'clock according to the rules
set down by the school trustees.

was discovered right away and treat
ment given, with the result that she
has about recovered from 1t.
She had failed to pay her rent,
tried to raise the money and failed
and the sheriff was removing her
furniture from the house when she

DESTROY sTlCK-TlGHT FLEAS
1t Is Necessary to Clean and Spray
Houses and Runs as Well as
Treat the Fowls.

Stick-tight" f1eas breed in the
cracks and crevices of brood and
poultry houses; also in dry animal or
vegetable refuse, but will not breed
in damp or wet places; therefore, to
get rid of them it is necessary to clean
and spray the houses and runs thor
oughly as well as treat the birds, say
poultry specialists Of the Unitea
States Department Of Agriculture.
Grease the comb and wattles of the
fowls and chicks with a preparation
of kerosene and lard-one part kero-
sene to three parts of lard-being
very careful not to use too much of
the mixture or get any of it in the
birds eyes or on other places where
it is not necessary, as it may cause
injury if used too freely.
Clean and spray the coops and
houses thoroughly the same as for
poultry mites; also wet or spray the
yards or runs, especially any dry soil
about the poultry h|1ses, such as dirt
floors or the ground underneath
board floor, with a solution of salt
and water, which helps to keep the
ground moist and prevents the fieas
from breeding.
