THOUSANDS Of
SHEEP ARE FED
ON IDAHO HAY
Feed Price Stifens In
Past Month to Average
of So Per Ton; Optimis-
tic Tone.

BOISE-Thousands OF sheep and
cattle are now being fed in the Snake
river valley and its tributaries, from
Weiser in the west to St. Anthony in
the east, recent survey of the whole
state indicates the number of sheep
and lambs being fed for market as Is
per cent greater than last year, and
the number of cattle practically the
same as last year. However, in Cas-
sia, Twin Falls, Minidoka, Jerome
and Gooding counties the increase
of sheep and lambs on feed is report
ed 80 per cent over last year. Bing-
ham, Fremont, Franklin and Ada
counties also report increased feed
ing activity. Carlot shipments of
sheep and lambs from south Idaho
last winter were as follows: Decem-
Der, 464; January, 324; February 38l /;
March, 170; for a total of 1889 cars.
1t is probable that the total will be
around 1000 cars for the same period
this winter. There are seven per cent
more farmers engaged in sheep feed
ing than last winter Southeastern
increase and the south central next,
with IA per cent.
Farm prices for heep show little
change. from last month The state
averages this month and last, re-
spectively, per cwt. follow: Lambs,
$40 and $lQ75; aged ewes, $685. and
$3.50; breeding ewes, $l0.50 and $1l.
Hay Price Up
Hay prices stiffened $l.25 for a
state average of 5000 per ton in the
stack. Last months average was
$.75. The average in western coun-
ties is from $40 to $50; south cen
tral, 81, and eastern counties 81 to
%.75. With the present feeding ac-
tivity and demand developing in
Oregon and Washington, it is evi-
dent Idaho's two and three quarter
million ton hay crop will be disposed
of at satisfactory prices.

There is an optimistic tone in the
majority of reports received from our
correspondents throughout the state.
and the impression is that we have
had our worst times. Up in Custer
and Lemhi counties, reports are that
the cattle situation has improved over
last year and that interest is strong in
the sheep industry. In Lemhi county
federal and state agencies have just
completed testing 10000 head of cat
tie for tuberculosis and out of that
number found SIS reactors. To many
correspondents the sheep industry is
looking encouraging for the next two
years. Several counties report all
hay supplies contracted with proba
bic shortage in sight.
Sheep Increase
For the United States, as whole
there were approximately 20 per cent
more sheep and lambs on feed De-
cember first this year than on the
same date last year. In the corn belt
the increase is estimated at 10 per
cent above last year, that is, in the
five states east and six west of the
Mississippi river. In the western ir-
rigated region, the estimated increase
is Is per cent for the whole region

ANNUAL GEM STATE
POULTRY SHOW
POULTRY 81


To Mrs. r. L. Slater, Mayfield stage
out OF Boise, goes the distinction of
showing the largest single bird at the
Second Annual Gem State poultry
show. Her bird is gobbler. His
46ficial weight at the time OF entry
was 81 pounds. This may not be a
record bird in size but to the layman
he certainly is whale. Incidentally,
Mrs. Slater's entry took first prize in
his class.

result of the conferences between the
two statesmen seemed to promise well
for the future; both, after they had
felt each other out, harbored the hope
of favorable relations between the two
countries.
During my Spring visit to Corfu, the
Melissori troubles began, which rivet-
ed Greek attention upon themselves.
Corfu was well informed Of the con-
stant smuggling of arms from Italy
by the way of Valona into Albania,
and there was a feeling in Greek
circles that Vaccinations from across
the Adriatic, as well as from Mont
enegro, were not without responsible
ity for what was happening. 1t was
also felt that the new Turkish Gev-
ernment had not been wise in its
handling of the Aibanians, who were
very sensitive and suspicious; the
former Sultan Abdul Hamid had real
lied this very well and understood
admirably how to get along with the
Albanians and to keep them quiet
Nevertheless, there was no fear that
more serious complications would en-.

At the beginning of 1911 I received
most cordial invitation from King
George of England to be present at
the unveiling of the statue of Queen
Victoria, the grandmother of both of
US. Therefore l went in the middle
of May to London with the Empress
and our daughter The reception on
the part of the English royal family
and the people of London was cordial.
The unveiling festivities were well
arranged and very magnificent. The
| big, round space in front of Bucking-
ham Palace was surrounded by grand
stands, which were filled to over
flowing by invited guests. In front
of them were files of soldiers of all
arms and all regiments of the British
Army, in full parade uniform, the
cavalry and artillery being on foot
All the banners of the troops were
arrayed at the foot of the statue
The royal family. with their guests
and their suites, was grouped around
the statue. King George made a ded
ication speech which had good effect
in which he made mention also of the
German imperial couple.
Then amid salutes and greetings, the
statue was unveiled; the Queen, il
marble, seated upon a throne, be
came visible, surmounted by a COLDER
figure of victory. 1t was an impres
sive moment. Afterward the troops
marched past, the Guards in the van

carried out brilliantly; not one man
made q mistake. The Duke of Con-
naught, who had made all the military
arrangements, deservedly won unani-

Festivities in England
The remainder of our stay in Eng
land was devoted to excursions; we al
SO enjoyed the hospitality of noble
English families, at whose homes
there was an opportunity to hold inter
course with many members of Eng
nsh nobility.
Special enjoyment in the domain OF
art was provided by the King to his
guests by a theatrical performance al
Drury Lane Theatre. A well-known
English play, Money" was performed
by a company especially assembled
for the occasion, consisting of the
! leading actors and actresses of London
