Local Farmers to Join Big Organization
Township Chairmans Appointed

Iowa County is to have a Farm Blu
reau. This was decided at meetings
of representatives from the various
townships held at Dodgeville Wednes-
day and Friday evenings Of last week.
Temporary organization was COM
pleted and plans made to proceed at
once to build up a strong County Farm
Bureau and to affiliate with the State
and American Farm Bureau Fedora
ton. Much interest has been shown by
leading farmers over the county.
Edward Bergman, Sr. Of Dodgevlle
township, was made temporary chair
man, and Carl Rowe of the same town
ship temporary secretary. Temporary
township ehairmen have been appoint
ed and will be announced soon.
A series of meetings will be held in
all parts of the county to acquaint every
farmer with the organization and give
an opportunity for full discussion Of
the question.
The Farm Bureau Is nation wide and
offers the best opportunity for farmers
to help themselves secure such condi-
tons as would be satisfactory.

WHEN elected to office at an election
where party lines are thrown down
one should be highminded. magnani-
nous, honorable. But perchance he
dwindles to narrowness whereby his
political faith controls his actions. he
simply proves himself not only dsap-
pointment, but an unreasonable, un-
worthy incumbent. The only satisfac-
ton the public gets is that he is dig
ging his own grave.

Deaths Untimelv Call.

Last week we announced the death
of young John Rock who died May 27,
but could give no particulars at that
writing. This has been learned since:
He was the eldest son of Mrs. Annie
Rock, and at the time of his death was
l6 years, s months and "a days of age.
Cause of his death was from injuries
to one of his knees about five months
ago His suffering was intense at
times, yet with it all his patience and
hope ever prevailed.
John was a good boy and will be
missed. not only by his devoted mother
and loving brothers and sisters, but by
all of his youthful comrades.

ment and rush the work to compile
ton that much faster while the
earth was moist and would pack.
High and Low Costs
It has been reported that the job
cost in excess of $4,000 and that
teams made unconscionable profits
banking up sand at 20 cents a yard,
where there was no haul, but just
filing and dumping the scrapers.
That kind of work was offset by the
long haul where hills were scraped
out across long stretches of low land
where the grade had to be built
several feet high.
Officers Admit Mistakes
The board desires to say that 1t
thinks it made a mistake in letting
so much time slip away while nego-
tiating for federal aid and thus get
ting into an emergency. The county
engineer desires to acknowledge
that he ought to have called IN as
many contractors and persons as ne
could think of who might be IN the
market for such employment, and
give them all chance to bid on the
work. He admits that he Is open to
the charge of playing favorites, but
denies that he did it in that spirit.
He says he called in the one he con-
sidered the best equipped and pos
sessing the ability to push such work
economically, concentrated his at
tention to get contract at fair
prices and got the outfit to work as
soon as he could. He says he re-
| grets that he did not protect him
| self from criticism by getting com"
| petitive bids. II they had let 1t to
the lowest bidder it might have gone
to somebody not a resident OF this
county and such contractor might
have brought in his help from other
places, and the plan adopted avoided
the risk of that. It has been re-
ported that Commissioner England
is a silent partner with Mr.. Wheeler.
and Mr.. England says this is not
true. He says it is true that his son
Will England had a job with Mr..
Wheeler, but he had a right to work
| wherever he wanted to.
The Actual Cost
The county engineer estimated
that the cost of the job would be
| $1O,767.5O, but when construction
commenced they changed the plans
to make it two feet narrower, and
in the course of the work he found
that he could use thinner coat OF
gravel on part of it where the clay
coat had stood the wear we'll and the
actual cost of the job proved to be
$S623.O7. This job placed in COM
parison with some of the grades and
top-coating accomplished by pre-
decessors using outside superintend-
4 ence and outside contractors is
creditable to the officers in charge
of the job just completed.

trary to the rules of the state high

can get the highway commission to
build from Kimball north or from

approval. We felt that we were

plans to build the roadbed in two
sections instead of one as the rules
called for.
The spokesman for Firth indi-
Gated displeasure at our doing any
thing on the Lincoln creek road UNI
til after their bad roads had been
taken care of, but having seen the
wreckage of last year on that road,
we decided to protect the county's
investment on Lincoln creek and
protect the people who have to get
their living by the use of that road.
Delegated the Work
In the pressure of demands to
save the big bridges over Snake
river our board delegated Commits
sioner England to sink the test pits
and see where to get materials for
top-cOating the two miles of the
Lincoln creek that was in the worst
condition. Mr.. England delegated
the county engineer to so ahead To-
eating the materials and get every
thing ready for the work. Each
commissioner was busy looking after
the work in his own district, and
the engineer, or Mr.. England or both
misunderstood just how far he was
authorized to go on his own re-
sponsibility, and responsible con-
tractor was called in, the work ex-
amined, the clay that had proved
unsatisfactory before was con-
demned for further top-coating and
gravel adopted from the hillside
The estimates were carefully made
for the short haul of sand fol
grades, the long haul for sand fol
grades across the hollows, and fol
the wagon haul for the top-coating
and an oral contract was made pro-
viding for construction to be com
menced at once and pushed rapidly

off of the job, but they and thu

will do well to read before taking
the trip to the roundup. Seventy
eight years ago Marcus Whitman
and his thousand emigrants came
across and extended the wagon trail
1000 miles beyond what it was be-
fore and blazed the famous trail to
Oregon.
People going from the Snake
river valley to the roundup at
Henry can go via Pocatello and Soda
Springs and then north twenty-five
miles, or they can go via Ross Fork
creek or Lincoln creek and thru the
head of the Port Neuf valley, Grave
creek and the government dam, or
they can 60 via Wolverine and the
switch back road, thru Willow Creek
and Grays Lake or via the govern
ment dam or they can 60 via Iona
or Taylor and over the ridge to Will
low Creek. They can go across
Presto bench to the mouth of VOL
VERNE and then turn up the Black
foot river and follow up thru Para
disc valley and over the range via
the government dam, or they can go
to Lincoln valley and up Cold creek
into. Paradise valley and out past
the dam. 1t is about seventy miles
from Blackfoot, and all roads lead
to Henry.
Bingham county has been build
ing roads to connect the Snake river
valley with the stockman's country
to the eastward, and now is a good
time for people in the valley to plan
for a trip thru the mountain valleys
to see the country, and to mingle
with the men of the mountains
Those who want to seek markets fol
their fruits and fine vegetables
among the stockmen will have
chance to invite them to their camps
at meal time and get acquainted
over the meal Of good things pro
duced on the Snake river farms. TIT
day is coming when the people o
these two sections will appreciate
each other more and mutually hell
in commerce. We will 60 up to SCI
their beautiful races and they will
come down to our fair and to bu
supplies from our bounty.
When you 60 to Henry, go wit
the idea of getting acquainted an
of acquiring new neighbOrs, for the
are not half so far away as the
, seem. It is only step with tn
, jitney.
