Co inference Of County Agents
of North Idaho With U.
s. Men at Moscow.
CAMPAIGN TO START
Government Furnish Every
thing Except Labor;
Here Six Weeks.

County Agent Pavey with other
county agents of northern Idaho held
a conference ith representatives Of
the U. s. biological department at
Moscow last Saturday, with the re-
suit that the federal department will
place man in Idaho county for a
period of six weeks to poison squir-
rels on government, state and Indian
lands that are adjacent to lands that
are owned by farmers who are poi
soning their squirrels. The govern
ment furnishes the poison bait that
is to be used on its own lands free
or charge, but farmers who occupy
said lands and their neighbors are
asked 10 help distribute the bait. The
unty agent is taking the matter up
with the different farm bureau CON-
munity organizations to ascertain Just
how much work will have TO be done
in each community.
The complaint was made last wear
that the farmers who poisoned their
own lands were bothered by squirrels
coming from neighboring places where
no noison was put out, and from fed
eral and government land. This year
the condition can be changed provid-
ing the farmers win operate with the
county farm bureau to help eradicate
this great pest and nuisance In the
communities where the farmers all
cooperate they will get the govern
ment aid 1t must be understood, how
ever that the government poison will
only be placed on land where squir-
rels are bothering land owners
The program of work adopted at
the annal meeting Of the Idaho Coun-
ty farm bureau will be followed. Last
year the farm bureau put out 275
ounces of squirrel poison with excel
lent results ,and so far this year IT'S
ounces have been distributed among
the farmers. At the January meeting
OF the county commissioners, petitions
"Nac PACoChoCu ny the ldrm bureau
community organizations to put the
Idaho state squirrel law into effect.
Acting upon these petitions the COM
missioners voted favorably upon the
enforcement of this law. Through
placing this law in operation, making
1t compulsory for every farmer to
poison squirrels on his land, the coun-
ty farm bureau was able to enlist the
help of the U s biological department
to poison squirrels on state, federal
and Indian lands
From the achievements of the farm
bureau In securing the enforcement of
the state law and in enlisting the aid
of hte federal government, there seems
to be no excuse for the squirrel pest,
and by the use of the methods advo.
Gated by the government, vast des-
truction Of crops can be eliminated.

be overcome. II is due sometimes TO
poverty, but quite as often to un-
scientific feeding. Both parents and
children can be taught what are the
nourishing foods and how they
should be prepared
Unnecessary physical defects
mean not simply discomfort for the
children themselves. II not cured
or checked in time they develop into
permanent disabilities which are
more serious, and they act as a
handicap to the whole community.
According to Russell Sage Founda-
ton investigations, children with
remediable defects make Der cent
slower progress in their studies than
well children. Defective teeth cause
children to fall behind in school work
six months in eight years. 1t has
been found that an improvement in
scholarship Of 81 per cent has result
ed after dental repairs. Adenoids
usually add year and a half to the
time required normally to complete
the work Of the eight elementary
grades.
"Of course all these means a social
and economic loss to the community.
But efficiency should not be the on
ly reason for working for a sturdier
race and improving the health and
physical fitness Of the youngsters.
Justice and humanity demand that
they be given the bodily health and
strength which will enable them to
live and serve joyfully, with spiritual
poise and mental vigor."

CALLED
TO EASTER
SERVICES
Musical Program of Excep-
tional Merit at Federated
Church Sunday.

Eater morning In Grangeville-
after the snow and illness and de-
pression-what could be more fitting
and inspiring than to awaken and find
the storm was over, the birds sing
ing glorious songs of joy, and the sun
smiling assurance that winter was
past and spring just around the cor
ner
Easter morning in Grangeville was
thus typical of the storm and stress
OF life behind In the night, and life
opening into its fullness of beauty In
the morning. Typical also of the pro-
mise of our future life in the death
and the resurrection Of our Saviour.
The people of Grangeville seemed to
be inspired by the beauty Of the morn
ing and the desire to join with others
In some service of worship. At an
early hour the Federated church was
filled to overflowing. The room had
been made bright with Easter lilies
and banks of beautiful Towering
plants, with ferns and palms arranged
on the platform. These made an appro-
pirate setting for the spring like tone
given by the white gowns and flowers
worn by the ladies of the chior.
A musical program of exceptional
merit was presented, the numbers used
being appropriate for any church.
Great credit Is due to the choir for
their artistic Interpretation Of the
numbers, showing not only thought
ful care in planning and thorough pre-.
paration, but careful attention to the
message contained,
The sermon by Rev. Fl. s. Randall
was most able. giving inspiration to
