slightly less.

CATTLE IN SOUTH IDAHO

Blackleg is prevalent among cattle
in various parts of the state and cat
tlemen were advised Saturday by DR..
J. D. Adams, director of the bureau
of animal industry, to vaccinate ev-
ery calf before sending it to the dry,
fall pasture. One warning has been
sent out already this fall, the doctor
said.
Doctor Adams returned Saturday
from a trip to the southeastern part
of the state where he made person
al Investigation into the loss OF the
cattle in the Portneuf valley More
than so head have died in compar-
atiyely short time in this valley, and
occasional reports of death from the
blackleg come from various sections
of the state to the office.
The state meteorological laborato-
ry Saturday confirmed Doctor Ad-
ans diagnosis of blackleg. The
state veterinarian recommends use
OF aggressin as a permnent preven-

IMPORTANCE OF AMERICAN HISTORY
Urged BY DIR. SISSON AT INSTITUTE
HAGAN FINDS CONDITIONS
IMPROVED IN SOUTH IDAHO

| G. A. Hagan, republican candidate
| for legislature from Latah county
who just returned from Pocatello
where he attended the Odd Fellows
grand lodge, as representative from
the Moscow lodge, states that condi-
tions are improving in south Idaho,
but the improvement has not been so
great as was anticipated, because of
the fact that the market for the bum
per crop grown this year is far from
satisfactory. Thousands Of tons of
potatoes will be left to rot in the
ground in some sections, because Of
the impossibility of getting a price
which will justify handling and ship
ping them. The crops generally were
good throughout the state, and the
lack of a satisfactory market condi-
tion is the only thing standing in the
way of a prosperous season.
Mr. Hagan, who has for many years
taken more or less interest in politics,
states that the campaign is more or
less animated one in the southern
part of the state, with the republic
ans, democrats and progressives all
getting into the collar He express
ed the conviction, however, after
ing talked with many persons fam
iliar with conditions, that the re-
publican state ticket will be elected
Mr.. Hagan reports considerable in
terest in the proposed special train
from this city to Boise for the Armis-
tice Day game and says that the peo-
pie of south Idaho are open in their
expressions of interest in the Univer-
sity of Idaho, and pleasd at its growth.

TARIFF DON'T WARRANT

'More study and effort was given
in the framing of the new law than
was given to any previous tariff leg

ney. .'The flexible features of the
new law mark an epoch in tariff
making. Upon satisfactory showing
that rates in the new law are too
high or too low, the means for I'M
partial investigation and correction
by executive order are provided. The
new law based on the ground po-
Icy of protection and its enactment

of prosperity. That the nation will
benefit materially under its opera
