Crop Conditions Good; Weather UnfauorabIe
 To the Boil WeeUiE

Weather has continued to be un- favorable to the boil weevil. Corn is doing very we'll. Crops at large are reported in good shape in the week ly summary of the American Steel and Wire company, which says:
 Reports this week again show healthy progress in most crops due to generally favorable weather conditions. While there are areas with too much moisture and areas Of drought in directly opposite corners of the country, namely the southeast and far northwest, as & whole the weather has been very seasonable, although some states have been a little too cold for corn. This crop looks better than usual at this time of year.
 Tn the northeastern part of the country weather has been more favorable to having and small grain harvesting. Much of the wheat in the eastern half of the country is harvested. Threshing is keeping pace with the harvest. In the more westerly states the small grain harvest will be on in earnest within the next week. Threshing machine reports confirm oats to be light crop. Wheat yields, very uneven, from five to fifty bushels per acre.
 Much tobacco is already being cured and in the producing states is generally good. Sweet potatoes 70 per cent to very good
 "The cotton situation was improved in the past week. owing to less fav- orable weather for boil weevils. The major crops of the state of Texas are made with the exception of cot ton. The white potato crop promises to be a large one.
 Reports on apples, peaches and grapes continue very promising Favorable forage conditions make the live stock industry very good. The country at large is in good healthy agricultural condition"

Salt Lake Lady Is
Inventor of New
Clothes Basket

Mrs. Tom ]. Evans, whose hus-
band is with the Western Electric
company of Salt Lake City, has in
vented something we want to tell
you about. 1t is a clothes basket
to be used for receiving the clothes
from the wringer, and for holding
the clothes up to the lady while she
pins them on the clothes line.
This basket is made of canvas
with four light sticks for the frame,
and it hangs rather than sits. When
she is ready to carry them out to
the line she does so and instead Of
setting it down on the ground and
stopping for each piece she handles,
she hangs it on the line by means
of couple Of tiny hook-pulleys and
draws the first wet piece Of goods
.out Of the open end of the basket,
pinning it on the line and taking
the clothespins from pocket in the
end Of the basket. She steps along,
pushing the basket ahead Of her on
the line and drawing out and pin
ming more pieces on the line without
stopping or having to lug the basket
along. She has tested 1t and i'm
proved it until she sees no fault with
it and is having patents issued. She
thinks they will have them on sale
with the opening Of spring. st

CLOSE OF SOCIAL SEASON

The pre-lenten season of 1922 was
the most active In social affairs in
the history of our town. There was
an almost constance stream Of parties
thru the two months following the
holiday season. We frequently
heard of two affairs in the afternoon
and a large dancing party at night
with more parties and dances fol-
lowing Immediately so there was
scarcely day or evening that sug-
gested an absence Of social enter
tainment of some sort. There were
many more evening gowns and after
noon Z costumes of becoming and
beautiful texture and design while
more men have worn full evening
dress to their advantage in personal
attractions. In fact, we conclude
Blackfoot holds its own socially with
many OF the larger towns of the
state. The season closed with the
last of a series of six card and ken
singtons given by Mrs Dolman at
her home last Saturday In honor OF
Mrs. Loux of Pocatello and card
party at the bungalow home Of Mr..
and Mrs. EARLY on Monday night
when the low score entertained the
high schcre of the A. B. G. club. The
season closed with the beginning of
lenten Wednesday and now spring
serving, house renovating, with
garden and flower planting will oc-
cupy the time until summer vaca-
tions and outings follow in their
course, for, Of course, we shall not
have zero weather continue on thru
March and other spring months.

PRINCESS MARY
welded TUESDAY
Weddings One Of the
Most Notable In
History

Princess Mary Of England and Wis
count Lascelles were married at
Westminster Abby, London, on
Tuesday, the twenty-eighth Of Feb
ruary. Theirs was one Of the not
able weddings of history. and was
made the more popular because both
of the contracting parties were very
democratic and very popular with
the masses. During the war the WIS.,
count was at the front, and shared
the hardships and dangers OF war
just like other men, and 1t was his
good fortune to live thru 1t all. a
Princess Mary worked all thru the
war just like other girls. She was
in the hospitals most of the time,
and won such a large place in the
hearts of English working girls that
they banded together in making all
kinds Of gifts to her to express their
appreciation of her character and
her democratic life-working to the
limit Of her strength for the allies
Thus it happens that these two peO-
pie receive the tributes and atten-
lions of royalty due to their high
station in life and also the tributes
prompted by genuine love OF the
common people wherever their. work
is known, and that means pretty
much the civilized world.
Civilization likes a great pageant,
and they can be forgiven fol. the
lavishness of this occasion, and all
the folderoll Of the event, when we
remember that people are built that
way and they have to express them
selves. The story of the wedding
is the story Of luxurious display of
every kind of wealth that could be
brought into play, yet simple and
impressive wedding ceremony, and
the happy couple showered with rice
as they boarded the train for some
place Of their own choosing.
