Why Not?

'Why not supply the local demand for
home productions" is the pointed iu-
quiry made by one of the speakers at a
dairy meeting held in one OF the Palouse
towns last week. The lesson will apply
to local conditions here as we'll. The
farmers are overlooking the needs of
their home market. Lewiston merchants
have to import bacon, butter and eggs
from the east to supply the demands OF
their customers many of whom are farm
ers. With eggs at 40 cents a dozen and
butter at IS cents pei pound in the home
market, the margin profit ought to be
large enough to stimulate home industry
along these lines. The wheat in the
grsnary is a slow moving product, but
the dairy COW aud the poultry yard could
be doing an active business under the
present demands of the local market.

home productions"
