SOME POLITICAL NEWS

The progressive element of the
Republican party has scored another
victory, this time in Iowa's primary
election, nominating United States
senator. Smith Broekhart was the
representative of liberia and pro-
gressive ideas and outspoken against
wrong by any party, whether it was
his own or the one opposing it.
The standpat element of the party
tried to shut him out in the race for
the senatorial nomination, but could
not do it and he won with about 80
per cent of the votes, there being
several candidates in therac Under
the Iowa law, no candidate can
receive nomination with less than
35 per cent of the votes and in this
instance it was rather expected that
nobody would be nominated at the
primaries and in that event it would
be done in convention and there the
stadpat forces would be able to use
the machine to beat Brookhart.

Blackfot, Idaho,
Dear Sir:
found in my mail this morning
draft from you covering my auto
mobile collision loss on my Hudson
car, which loss your company ad-
justed on a basis of $645 with $50
deductible as provided in my policy,
netting me $685..
This sum enabled me to place my
car in fine condition and allow an
ample amount for paint job which
l will in due time have done to my
car.
Beeb, you will no doubt remember
when selling me this collision policy
saying what a comfortable feeling l
would experience If ever had a COL
lision. I sure had the collision and
also experienced that comfortable
feeling.
! might say l am grateful to you
for having sold me the policy and
certainly appreciate the liberal set
Element which I received from your
company.
Sincerely yours,
adv. FRED e. SEEGER.

THE COUNTY AGENTS CALLS

"The county agent hasn't been
out to see me and he's been here two
years" That is one of the critic
isms l hear pretty often of our
county agents. At first thought 1t is
q just one. At second thought it
isn't.
|. was in farm bureau work some
weeks ago where the county agent
was discussing this very thing. Here
is what he said about it: IF l should
call at every farm in this county and
spend half hour at each place it
would take me fourteen months
working fourteen hours a day to
cover the field.'
IT our agents did that then what
about the demonstration meetings,
the calf, pig and poultry club work.
The county agent will call at your
farm If you ask him to and If he can
possibly get there. He has been to
my farm two or three times tn s
year. Once asked him to come
directly and the other times l asked
him to stop some time as he was
passing. He did.
His work can be done better in
groups. If he can spend an hour
talking to twenty or fifty or hun
dred farmers 1t is much more ef-
ficient than If he comes to your farm
and spends that time alone with you.
There is another way to get the
good of your county agent and that
is by letter. Do you want to know
the best ration for the steers that
you've just bought? He has this on
file and can easily figure out about
the best feeding combinations posi-
BILE. He can do this from expert
ments at half dozen different col
leges and experiments stations.
That's book farming, but it is prac-
tical, too.
Maybe you wonder about your
laying hens-or the ones that don't
lay and should. Write him and see
what he says. 1t will cost you 2
cents or so.. But you can do as you
wish when you get the reply from
the agent. The chances are that you
will profit by it.
Some folks think that the county
agent gets too much money for the
work he does. He is paid as much
for what he knows as what he does.
He spent several hundred dollars at
least in getting this knowledge that
puts him in line to be your county
agent. That must be paid back
somewhere.
Use your county agent in every
way you can, but don't expect him
to come to your farm unless you re-
quest it. He can't do it. He must
spend some time each week in the
office as there is much clerical work
to be done and there must be certain
times when farmers can find him at
his office. Much information is
given out at the office. It's a good,
place to get it, too, because if there
is anything that the agent doesn't
know he has every sort of informa-
ton at hand for reference.
A FARMER.

CHHASES WOULD-BE THIEF

Some of the people of Blackfoot
were amazed at the speed exhibited
by Mark Tuohy Sunday while chas-
ing a would-be thief. Mrs. Tuohy
had seen man lurking about their
place two or three times last week
and was beginning to feel little
nervous. Sunday evening when Mr..
and Mrs. Tuohy returned home,
after short trip in their car they
discovered a man in the attempt Of
entering their house.
Mr.. Tuohy started after the thief,
who was making a getaway. The
thief stumbled on a ditch bank and
Mr.. Tuohy almost caught him but he
regained his feet and the chase was
resumed. Mark proved the faster
runner and caught up to the man
and was ready to grab him when he
stumbled and the man got away
leaving Mr.. Tuohy with some bruises
to remember him by.
Mark ought to make good show
ing on the Fourth of July in the
races, after this practice.

YOUNG FOLKS
VISIT GRAVE CREEK
Explore Natural lie e
Caves and Climb
Divide

On Sunday afternoon, June 4, the
Misses Lucille and Jean Park and
Nora Jones and Messrs. Robert and
Vern Wallace and Wayne Park de-
cided to take trip on horse back to
Grave creek. The excitement in
getting things prepared to take the
trip was so great that Miss Jones,
who stayed that night with the
Misses Park, spent the entire night
in wakeful anticipation Of the trip.
The route which they followed led
across the Blackfoot river past the
site of Old Fort Hall, up Lincoln
creek, across the divide, down the
Portneuf river, past the Morgan
ranch and on to Grave creek.
The trip began with a great deal
Of noise and fun, the crowd spending
the morning in racing their horses
and joking among themselves, but
after spending the noon hour at the
source of the Portneuf river the
trail began to drag on endlessly and
the mountain scenery grew tiresome
to the eyes. Upon entering Grave
creek at about 8 o'clock their for
lorn looks would have made stone
image pity them.
The party went to the R. G. Wal
lace home and finding no one home
they entered and tried to rest them
selves. Miss Jones made up for the
previous sleepless night by sleeping
thru three hour storm that had
ushered them into Grave creek.
After waiting vainly for some
time for the return of Mrs. Wallace
the party decided to prepare their
own supper and upon the arrival of
the surprised Mrs. Wallace, she
found a sumptuous supper and a
hungry gang awaiting her. This was
followed by a pleasant, but short
evening, after which the party re-
tired for thir much needed rest.
The following day was spent in
fishing and visiting the ice caves.
The fishing proved very successful,
each person having generous num-
Der to carry back to Blackfoot.
The exploration of the ice caves,
which is the chief point of interest
in Grave Creek, greatly interested
the young people who were lowerd
by lariats into the cool depths below
Che surface of the ground. A great
part of the ice caves could be ex-
ploded only by crawling on hands
and knees thru the dark ice pas
sages, but this did not prevent the
party from enjoying this sudden
plunge into the heart Of winter.
That evening a dance was enjoyed
and ice cream and cake were served
to all.
Wednesday the young folks went
to the source of Grave Creek and on
up to the Chesterfield divide, where
a good view of the Chesterfield and
Blackfoot valleys was obtained.
Thursday morning, after regret
fully bidding Grave creek goodbye,
an early start for home was made.
The route on the return trip led
down Cold creek canyon, where the
blossoming choke cherry trees made
the scenery more beautiful than that
of the other route.
