Members of Club Select Poland China Type From Howard McKinley’s Herd, Wm, Hamilton, club leader for this section, completed the or- ganization of the first pig club ever attempted in this valley on Monday. Howard McKinley, the well known breeder of Poland Chinas, the day before brought from his Cottonwood ranch five pure bred gilts and these were distributed by lot to the five members. Those who have taken the first steps in this very im- portant work are: Francis Beers son of P. M. Beers; Auline and Mary Knapp, daughters of Fred Knapp; and Zelpho and Vardeen McCarty, daughter and son of Lloyd McCarty. They chose officers by electing Zelpha as president, Francis vice president, and Auline sec- retary-treasurer. Although the club is small in numbers, Mr. Hamilton says they make up for it by the enthusiasm they take in their pigs and he looks for them to make such a fine record in the fall that many more mem- bers will want to join. They will hold a meeting on the fourth Wednesday of each month, when A. Stone, the state club lead- er, will be with them and give them help in the care of their pigs and in other ways. Then at the Kamiah fair the pigs will be exhibited and prizes offered for the contest—Kamiah Pro- gress. FAVORS INDIANS. Reversing the judgment of federal Judge F. S. Dietrich, the United States circuit court of appeals at San Francisco has ruled that the counties of Ben- | ewah and Kootenai are exceed- ing their rights in levying taxes on certain Indian lands in north Idaho. The case was appealed by the government and argued in San Francisco on May 9, _ — Al- though the lands of only two In- are involved in the case the rul- ing will affect thousands and thousands of acres of Indian lands not only in north Idaho, but Washington and Oregon and other states as well, it is said. The action was brought again- st the counties more than a year ago by the government, which sought a restraining order pre- venting the counties from pro- ceeding with the collection of taxes levied against Indian lands comprising the tracts which the government granted the red men in 1919 by means of trust patents, providing that the gov- ernment retain nominal posses- sion of the land for 25 years and also hold the land non-taxable. In 1916 after the passage of cev- tain legislation by congress the secretary of the clared many of the Indians com- petent and issued patents in fee to the landholders. Thereupon the counties proceeded to levy taxes against the Indian lands. Later the interior department recalled and cancelled these pa- tents but it was the contention of the counties that patents once so issued could not be cancelled. MRS. SWATMAN DEAD.
