SEVERAL HOMES ROBBED

Late Tuesday night several homes
| in Blackfoot were entered by un-
known intruders and in each case
the method was the same.
The home of Nofear Davis was en-
tered while the family were asleep,
and the burglar entered the bedroom
without waking anyone, and after
Davis trousers and securing a purse
with a small sum of money, entered
the other part of the house and car
rled away an overcoat, as we'll as a
bicycle left outside. The burglar also
entered the neighboring home of Mrs.
Stevens, who, however, was awake,
and upon hearing the door opening,
Investigated the cause, which fright
dned the intruder who left in such
haste that he screen door slammed
with force.
\ The home of Mr.. Wright on Shill-
ing avenue was entered, where the
thief likewise entered the bedroom,
and after searching through Mr..
Wright's pockets, left with watch
and purse containing some money.
Mr.. Aliens residence in the same
vicinity was broken into, but the thief
was not so successful there, as Mr..
Allen fortunately removed his money
from his pockets before retiring, and
all the thief received for his trouble
was pocket knife.
The police department has been
notified and is working on the cases.
1t is the opinion Of many that the
burglar or burglars, a sthe case may
be, are the same offenders who bur-
glarized homes in Idaho Falls the
night.

CONTROL GRASSHOPPERS
BY FALL CULTIVATION

For the past two years we have eX-
perienced increasing devastation by
grasshoppers. Two years ago the
damage was confined mostly to the
Grimm section and points west Of
Shelley and east of Firth, but last
summer hoppers became quite gen
eral throughout the irrigated sec
tions of Bingham County. Next year
the damage may be general so that
countrywide campaign may be nee
essary. New and better means OF
control are being devised and they
will be published at a later date.
Grasshopper eggs are laid in hard
ground in ditch banks, along road
sides, in hard waste ground, and in
uncultivated fields such as alfalfa
fields. They are laid about three
fourths to one and one-half inches
under the ground, often in beds con-
tanning many thousands of egg
masses.
If the egg-infested land requires
plowing for the next crop, no other
treatment need be given. The plow-
ing should be at least six inches deep,
and should be finished before the first
of April, but preferably before the
winter sets in. This covers the eggs
so deeply that the majority of the
young cannot crawl out when they
hatch. If plowing is unnecessary for
the following crop, the eggs can be
destroyed with little expense by STIR
ring the ground to depth Of two
inches, crosswise and lengthwise.
This breaks and crushes many cap
sules and exposes others to attacks
of enemies and disease, as we'll as to-
drying and freezing. Stirring can be
best accomplished by disking.
The Grimm growers, who practice
thorough cultivation Of fields, had
little trouble with this pest last year
except where their farms were bor-
dered by waste ground. Cultivation
of alfalfa grown for hay Is good
practice and should be followed even
where grasshoppers are not present.
Cultivate now and save next years
crop.

AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT

Late Sunday afternoon, an accident
occurred on the paved highway be-
tween Pocatello and Blackfoot, near
the Mcguire plant, when Mr.. and Mrs
John Townsend and brother, j.. H
Townsend, all Of Pocatello, who were
driving to Blackfoot in Ford car
crashed into the front Of truck be-
longing to the Mcguire company
which was just turning into the high
way from the plant driveway.
The truck driver was under the
impression that he was observed by
the occupants Of the approaching car,
but they claim that they did not see
the truck until they were upon It.
The driver of the truck escaped In
juries, but the Pocatello people re-
ceived injuries and the Ford car was
badly damaged. The injured people
were rushed to Blackfoot, where they
received medical aid. 1t was dis
covered that Mrs. Townsend's face re-
ceived some bruises, while John
Townsend sustained bruises and sur
face wounds on his legs.

BUFFALO AGAIN TO LIVE
WHERE FIRST DISCOVERED

The recent gift of three buffalo to
the Government of Mexico recalls the
discovery and early history of these
big game animals. The gift will De
sent from the herd maintained by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture on the Wichita Game Preserve,
Oklahoma, to the sociological park in
the City of Mexico, lmost on the
very spot where the buffalo was first
discovered by Europeans.
The Biological Survey points out
that 400 years ago, when Cortez en-
tered Montezuma's capital, on the
present site of the City Of Mexico,
white men had their first view OF
buffalo, a herd of which was main
tanned in the menagerie Of the en-
peror. This was in 1921, when buf-
falo roamed in millions over the tab
lelands Of northern Mexico and the
Great Plains of the present western
United States.
An e arly writer, Antonio de Soils,
who first described Montezuma's me-
nagerie, declared that the greatest
rarity in the collection was the Mex
ican BULL" which had crooked shoul-
ders, a bunch on its back like the
camel, and its neck covered with hair
like the lion. 1t was in these terms
that he characterized the American
buffalo or bison.
AS manifestation Of goodwill to-
ward our southern neighbor, gift Of
three buffalo was rendered the Mex
ican Government by the United States
Department Of Agriculture and the
New York Geological Society. De-
tails of shipment are being arranged
between DR.. w. T. Hornaday, director
of the New York Geological Park, and
Prof. A. l.. Herrera, in charge Of the
geological work Of the Mexican Gov
ernment.

and grain. 1t was an ingenious de-
vice and succeeded in fooling the
mule. 1t would have been a great
success had not the mule died. In
another sense this is exactly what
the farmer is doing to the cheese in
dustry by his careless handling of fall
and winter milk. If every farmer
could have the truth of this shown
to him, what great improvement
we would have in the cheese indus
try almost over night. But it does
not happen, instead the farmer and
cheese-maker together are sending
the bulk cheese industry to the bow
vows.
This is not fool-proof world. We
pay for such carelessness. The con-
sumner eats cheese for flavor, not for
the purpose of buying something to
chew on. We are not deceiving any
one but ourselves. An increase in
production and no increase in con-
sumption. Yes we pay, and a pretty
stiff price, too. The green spectacles
are not on the mules eyes, but upon
our own.

Cheese Factories Make Shipment
24,576 pounds of cheese was ship
ped Wednesday from Bingham County
valued at $5,591.19. The shipment
from our factories were as follows.
Blackfoot, 1852 pounds, worth $4,-
015S2; Moreland, 1864 pounds, worth
$901.92, and Firth, 1880 pounds,
worth $673.45. Due to the fact that
the Moreland and Firth factories have
been operating only a short time,
their shipments are small, but they
expect to make a good run for the
coming month.

ARMISTICE DAY FOOT
BALL GAME AT BOISE

Southern Idaho football fans are
gon Agricultural at Boise, November
| 20, an Idaho team beautifully coached
and drilled in the latest football tac-
tics. r. l.. Mathews, the Idaho men
tor, is a veteran of Notre Dame but
he has evolved system of his own.
Idaho is one of the four undefeated
clubs in the Pacic Coast conference.
The others are California, Washing
ton and Oregon.
For years the Vandal followers have
been expecting a successful football
season. In the past the success of an
Idaho eleven has been guaged by its
showing against two teams-Wash-
ington State and Oregon. If the van
dals showed good against those two
the other teams didn't count for so
much. That must have been due 20
the long string of victories both
schools hold at Idaho's expense.
Figuring on that basis Idaho has
already had uccessful year, for the
vandals won from Washington State
less tie. The week after Idaho swept
over the Cougars the University Of
California, three times champion,
tried the same thing at Portland but
the score Of to 0 was the lowest lead
any California team has had in those
three bright years. With Idaho scor-
ing five points more on Washington
State than California and with Ore
gon tieing the vandals It begins to
appear that the days Of runaway
championships in the coast confer
ence Is over. .3
The strength of this Oregon Aggie
club Is problematical. But since
there has been no indication Of q
weak club in the conference 1t Is al
most certain that the Aggies are still
in the ring. The Aggies started out
as the weakest club In the league,
but with things so tight and all teams
so evenly matched 1t doesn't mean
much.
In the first game the Aggies fell
before California 26 to 0, but since
that time Coach Rutherford has ac-
considerable with his Of
fensive an dthe Aggies should not in
cline so much toward defense when
they appear at Boise. So far the best
Aggie bet has been It's powerful de-
fense. The offensive play has been
late in coming, but once on the right
track the Aggies will be hardbunch
to humble.
They have heavy and fast line
and In Ray Price as good a quarter
as there is in the conference. The
big problem with Rutherford is to
supply Price with some mates that
nave the punch and drive to keep up
with the slashing pace set by the line.

 "But what reason is there in that?" exclaimed Morton. Even a lunatic murderer wouldn't mark his victim by means of a tumbler rim"
 Historically, he picked up a tumbler from the water tray, and fitted it to the red mark on Warnings forehead.
 Tt doesn't fit exactly" he said but it does almost"
 "Rubbish!" said Gordon Lockwood in his superior way. "Why would any one mark Doctor Warnings face with a tumbler?"

 No" Lockwood said. Unless he fell over on some round thing as he died"
 There's nothing here' said Nor ton. scanning the furnishings of the desk" The inkstand Is closed-and it's a smaller round, anyway. There's no one of these desk fittings that could possibly have made that mark. Therefore, since it was made before death, it must have been done by the murderer"

 "A lead pencil could hardly ac- complish the deed,H Marsh unused. "A slate pencil might have-but that is d most unusual weapon.

 Yes, but where is the bill file?" asked Marsh, There's one on the desk, to be sure. but it Is full of pa pers, and shows no sign of having been used for a criminal purpose If as MT. Lockwood insists, this is a suicide cease. the victim positively could not have cleaned that file and restored the papers after stabbing himself.
 He most certainly could not have done that" declared Dr. Greenfield.
 Marsh examined the file carefully. It was an ordinary affair, consisting of steel spike on bronze stand ard. It would without doubt, make an efficacious implement of murder. but 1t was difficult to believe 1t had been used in that way. For the pills and memoranda it contained were, to all appearances. just as they had been thrust on the sharp point
