phases to get more experience
from the best paying combination
Of enterprises. Effort will be
made to get the state, through a
self-sustaining basis to give more
adequate service on protein tests
and a request will be made for
the establishment of i laboratory
on the Great Northern Railway in
the eastern part Of the state, pre-
ferably at Bainville, the terminal
of two branch lines and the out
let of the main line from Montana.
One hundred per cent standard
ization of purebred sires as a fac
tor in livestock raising will be the
goal; 100 per cent test for tuher-
culosis east of the Muddy will be
under consideration and a goal if
agreeable to most of the farmers
in that section in order to join the
Sheridan county area which is the
northern boundary Of Roosevelt
county. One hundred per cent of

some acreage of sweet clover both
as a factor in soil fertility ard
livestock feeding as a reserve to
get away from such disastrous
years as 1919 when lack of feed
caused a great financial loss to
livestock farmers of the county.
Balanced production will be given
more serious consideration as a
factor in getting farmers to keep
down their acreage with the idea
of receiving a better price. A
large number of Roosevelt county
farmers are keeping more IN line
with national, state and world pro
duction and its effect on prices.
Home Betterments
Roosevelt county intends to
make rapid strides in factors
which have a bearing on their
standard of living; while this was
one of the important phases of
the 1925 program it will receive
more consideration this year.
Home Identification is among the
first things considered and a con-
tinuation of the tree planting and
shelterbelt campaign will be CON
Quoted with the goal at 100 per
cent. Club work will be carried on
in every community where a local
leader can be recruited as a fac
tor in making better boys, better
producers and better citizens. The
social welfare Of the community
will be emphasized and encourag-
ed as a big factor in community

on charge Of assault with dead
ly weapon, was made public Sat
urday by the governor
The petition, in the form Of
resolution adopted by the joint leg
islative boards of the brptherhoods
at a meeting in Phoenix last Sat
urday, asks that the governor and
the parole and pardon board of the
state, give Midkiff his liberty and
full citizenship. Midkiff, it is
pointed out in the petition, is a
QaR1nber in good standing of Doug
US lodge No. 868 of the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen.
In addition to citing that Midkiff
was charged with crime usually
punishable by sentence of 80
days but was given an unusually
heavy sentence after being convict
ed, the petition also sets forth that
Midkiff has a wife and three chill
dren dependent upon him for sup
port and that the family is depend
ent now upon the lodge for support.
Under a recent ruling of the Su-
preme court, Midkiff cannot be pa
rolled until he has served his mini
mum sentence. The parole board
and the governor, however, under
the law can commute the minimum
sentence or give him a pardon, it is
pointed out by friends.

GRAND CANYON = All records
for monthly travel to Grand Can
yon National Park were broken
during June when total of 23,602
people entered the park, according
to J. R. Eakin, superintendent. Of
the total, 21,52S were registered on
the south rim and 2,074 on the
north. Travel to the south rim
showed a slight increase over last
year, while that on the north rim
was an increase of 27 per cent over
last years figure. Travel by rail
to the south rim showed decrease
while on the north rim this same
class of travel more than doubled.
The total rail travel on both rims
showed a decrease, while auto tEa-
vel increased II perceNt.
1t is expected that the present
month will break all July travel
records.
The feature of the months ira
vel, will be the visit of the Crown
Prince and Princess of Sweden to
the park. The party will arrive on
the north rim July 13. The royal
pair will spend July IA in viewing
the wonders of this section of the
park, including the Kaibab forest
and the hundreds of wild deer to
be seen. They will start the trip
across the canyon July Is, the
route being over the Kaibab Trail,
including the Yaki section, which
was completed a year ago. The
night will be spent at Phantom
ranch in the bottom of the gorge,
and the party will ARRIVE on the
