NOMEN'S CLUB IS
ANXIOUS TO HAVE
FAIR LIST READY
Premiums Have Been Delayed
in Past and Parties Inter-
ested Anxious This
Be Eliminated.

\ determined effort was launched by
the womens farm club federation at
the court house Saturday, TO have the
premium list for the next annual free
fair published, and in the hands OF the
public before June first.
This movement was inaugurated for
the reason that club women desire 10
know what will be offered in prizes at
the fair, and to plant their gardens, and
Strange other details accordingly.
In the past, issuing the premium list
aas been delayed 10 such time, that
il was of very little use TO the farmers,
and stock men who desired TO compete
at the annual fair. they were unable
to tell anything about different class
rs and had 10 conduct their affairs

Wants Early Start
The newly appointed farm agent. O.
l.. Putnam, who will have this matter
in charge mas announced that he wants
an early start on every detail pertain
ing 10 the fair. and as the premium list
: the most important Of all. the chances
are that it will be issued several months S
in advance in order TO give all an op,
portunity OF knowing what classes 10
prepare for.
The womens federation that was in
session Saturday went on record as
favoring every incident connected with
qe Carter County free fair, but they
do insist that the premium list be dis
uihuted early in the spring in order
that they may be in better position to
make the fair a success.

Observation-Disclosures OF
the practical value of the methods de-
veloped by the Biological Survey of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture for the destruction of preda
tory animals and injurious rodents is
shown by continued financial support
from cooperating states, organizations,
and individuals, amounting to 1896,

cording to the annual report of the
bureau 1t is estimated that as a re-
suit of control work conducted crops
and live stock to the value of over
$lO0O0,000 have been saved. In OPP
erations against predatory animals
hunters are required to turn in as evil
dence the skin or scalps of animals
taken. Such evidence was obtained in
the case of 687 gray wolves, 27,lS5
coyotes, 2,827 bobcats and Canada
lynxes,. l73 mountain lions, and ia
stock-killing bears, a total of 30o86
predatory animals. 1t is estimated
that at least $4,000 additional coyotes,
of which no carcasses were found
were killed by poison bats.

practically all of the farm products
of Idaho for the past twenty years

ton to carry the farm and range prod

Farmers Condition Serious
II think it can be said that the
financial condition of the people OF
my state today is more serious than
that of any state in the union. This
is due to the policy of the Union Pa
cific Oregon Short Line in not fur
nishing proper transportation to move
the crops, together with the excessive
freight rates, which are the highest
freight rates paid by any people in any
state in the Union where there is any
thing like great movement OF agri
cultural crops.
"In my state, in the last two years
between thirty and forty banks have
been forced to close their doors.
Thousands of farmers have given up
the fight and left their farms and
turned them over to the mortgage
companies.

THE settlers on all the government
irrigation projects in my state are

pend construction charges for a period

STRONG DEMAND
. FOR MORE LABOR
immigration Law is In
der Fire; Revision
Sought.

WASHINGTON-A strong demand
is being made upon Congress by many
great industries to let down the bars
and permit an influx of cheap for
cign labor. Many large corporations
feel the need of getting more unskilled
labor, and find it impossible to do so
in the present condition of the labor
market.
Against this purely commercial as
pect of the question are many in al
thority who question the wisdom OF
cheapening manufacturing processes at
the expense of injecting more unas-
similatable foreign elements into the
body polite. Secretary of Labor Davis
points out that the quota law operates
restrictively against countries which
have, in the past, sent us the loves.
and least desirable types OF immi-
grants, but that those countries which
have sent us men who generally be-
come good American citizens, have
not been affected by the quota law, be-
cause their nationals have not, since
the war, sought to come to this coun-
try in numbers sufficient to equal their
quota.
Many senators are much interested
in phase of the immigration question
which they deem of vital importance to
the Nation; the fact that, even in our
present quota law, we have no sure
means of keeping out the radical, the
red, the Bolshevist, and the enemy OF
government. A list recently compiled
of radical men and women working
for the overthrow of the government
near Chicago, is suggestive; Vein
stobe, Raggozin, Lindgren, Oblonsky
Kowbas niuk, Kakari, Titlow, Amter
Katterfeld, Bedrock, .Huiswold, Kos
sow, Papyanis, Stureau, Obermeyer
Kronberg, Gunther, and so on, for a
long list of foreign names. 1t is not
commended that having foreign name
means that its possessor is a radical
but that when, in any list of known
radicals, reds, and Bolshevists, the
majority of the names are foreign, i,
is conclusive proof that most of the
enemies of our government reach this
couitry via immigration.

spent over a period of five years is
necessary to put Washington's school
buildings abreast of their necessities.
Director of the Budget Lord, who
revises the estimates for the fiscal
year as submitted to him by the three
district commissioners who govern
Washington prior to the budget being
sent to congress, cut the estimates be-
low the figure originally submitted
by the commissioners as absolutely
essential"
Washington citizens are in curious
and un-American position in regard
to their schools; they have no say as
to how much money may be expended
for any municipal work, as well as no
voice in the amount they are to be
taxed The Congress, sitting as city
council, appropriated the money for
the District of Columbia, sixty per
cent from the revenues of the district
(taxes) and forty per cent from the
national treasury. in place of the taxes
which the government does not pay
the city for its lands and buildings.
The three commissioners prepare the
estimates, which are pruned by the
director of the national budget, after
which the district committee in Con
gress further prunes them, after which
the House does some more pruning.
What rs left, when the bill is passed,
Washington may spend on Washing

With the schools of the city in "a
deplorable condition, both as to build
ings and insufficient staff, overcrowd-
ing and lack of books, lack of facilities,
and even lack of flags to teach patriot
ism, a condition due to parsimoney in
Congress and war conditions, Wash
ington citizens, with no franchise, no
political power, and no representation,

to have an adequate school system for
their children, by means of meeting
petition, and publicity.

grow more of the food they consume
and buy less of food produced outside
their immediate locality is the concen-
sus OF opinion of $4,000 farmers in al,
parts of the country recently ques-
toned on the subject by the United
States Department OF Agriculture.
The survey showed that the food con-
sumed by farmers and their families,
20 per cent is produced locally, and
nearly 80 per cent is brought in by
railroad. In the judgment OF thc
farmers 70 per cent of the food they
consume could be economically pro
dSoed locally. In general way the
survey indicated that the more isolated
farmers produce more of the food
stuffs than the less isolated and that
the more prosperous sections seem to
buy more than the less prosperous
The thought back of the survey was
that inasmuch as high freight rates
have had a tendency to reduce the
prices OF products which farmers sell
and to increase the price OF the things
they buy, they might economically
produce more of their home requir-
merits and thus become less depend
ent upon the railroads and the out,
side world.
By sections of the country, the east
south central states including Ken
lucky, Tennessee, Alabama, and Mis-,
sissipp led in the volume of pro
duction for home consumption with
7s2 per cent. The smallest volume Of
home production is in the New Eng
land States, including Maine, New
Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts
Rhode Island, and Connecticut with
58.l per cent.

A STRIKING EXAMPLE.

The six-days' street car strike In
Chicago is a strong example OF the
folly of allowing industrial dis
putes to reach that stage. After
the men had lost 100000 in wag-
es, the public put to an additional
expense of 100000 finding i'm
provised transportation, and the
company and the business OF the
city subjected to the loss OF mil
lions of dollars, negotiations which
should have been as possible be-
fore the tieup as at the end OF six
days brought about an adjustment
accepted by both sides.
We claim to be reasonable be-
ings, but let us ask ourselves If
that way of adjusting the every
day relations Of employers and en-
ployed is anything but childish.
All America threw up its hands in
horror at the folly of grownup
men In Europe resorting to arms
to settle disputes that should have
been adjusted at council table.
But are we any wiser when 1t
comes to civil controversies at
home? There Is only one basis
for lasting peace between nations
or individuals, and that is Justice.
and it is to be obtained by argu-
ment and reason and not by force.

South"
And as Uncle Wiggily opened
the front screen door, all of a sur
den in popped the Fuzzy Fox, the
Woozie Wolf and the Bushy Bear.
The Bear, who was last in, shut
the door after him, and the Fox
CRIED
Now for some good ear nibbles!"
"Whose ears?" cried Uncle Wig
gily. .....
ooh, I guess they're after my
ears. The bad chaps are going to
nibble my ears!" cried the Buzz
Bug. Before Uncle Wiggily could
say that the Fox, Bear or Wolf
never nibbled such tiny ears as
those on June Bug, the queer
little chap began fitting about the
room. He bumped the Fox on his
nose "Bang!" He bumped the Bear
on his nose Bunk" and he
bumped the Wolf on, his nose
"Plunk"
ooh, wow!" howled the three
bad animals jumping up and hold
ing their paws to their noses. ooh.
we didn't come here to have our
noses bumped. We came to nibble
ears"
"Well, you can't nibble mine nor
Nurse James, nor Uncle Wiggily's,
because he's a friend of mine."
cried the Buzz Bug and once again
he bumped the Fox, Wolf and
Bear on their noses.
ooh, let US out! Let US get away
from here!" howled the bad chaps,
and away they ran with their tails
between their legs out of the front
door.
"And I'm going to-" said the
Buzz Bug.
but not until Nurse Jane and
/ thank YOU" spoke the bunny.
You saved our ears and gave me
a fine adventure" Then the Buzz
Bug was happy and fitted out of
the open front door down South,
where it is always June.
So, after all, no harm came to
the bunny uncle, and if the grass
hopper jumps over the bean pole
and doesn't tickle the man in the
moon, I'll tell you next about Uncle
Wiggily and the soda water.
