Be A Booster.

It is not necessary to live in large
town and be a member Of a 100000
club to be a booster. The fact
that you live in the biggest little town
on earth is enough. The fact that you
live in or near Troy, the best town in
Latah county, is sufficient. And to be
a booster doesn't simply mean that you
have done your full duty by just say
ing good word for Troy, but it means
that every loyal citizen Of the Potlatch
metropolis will stand by every home
industry at least to the extent Of giving
it his patronage. Troy now has a
cigar factory. If you smoke, smoke
Troy cigars. Troy has good roller
mill. If you buy flour, insist on Troy
flour. Troy has a creamery. Use
creamery butter and do all you can to
see that the plant is supplied with the
necessary cream. Troy has most
excellent wood working plant, giving
constant employment to some twenty
five fine mechanics, and adding thous-
ands Of dollars to the annual business
of the town. Not only patronize it,
but ask your friends end neighbors to
do so. Troy has an electric light
plant. Patronize it rather than the
Standard Oil monopoly. And besides,
electric lights are so much better and
safer and cleaner than oil. By doing
this kind OF boosting you begin to help
build up Troy. You help to give your
town a payroll. You make it possible
to maintain home industries and tc
give employment to men who in turn
spend their earnings here. And don't
forget that good booster cannot be
customer Of eastern department stores
You should stand by the Troy mer
chants, by the men who have invested
their money in your community, WHIT
pay taxes, who contribute to you
schools and assist in building up anc
developing your town and community
And lastly, if you are to be a thorough
bred booster, subscribe for the Tro
News and assist it, that its editor ma
continue to eat of the fat Of the land
to wear good clothes and to revel /
luxury and live in ease. Begin now

Improve Potlatch Cattle.

Within few days there will arrive in
Troy one of the best Jersey bulls ever
brought to the Pacific coast. The
animal will be two years old next March
and is the property Of six farmers of
Burnt ridge, who purchased him for
S24O at the Portland exposition. A.
B. Chapman, one Of the owners was IN
TROY recently and was enthusiastic
over the newcomer. He says this
animal comes Of family OF famous
milk producers, one COW having rec
ord of 81 pounds Of milk in 24 hours.
The demand for better mich COWS IS
now confronting the farmers of this sec
ton. many Of them being firm believ-
ers in the value of dairy COWS and CO.
onerative creameries. There is grow
inc desire to build up the new butter
making plant recently built at this
nlace and a determination to make a
success Of the venture. Mr.. Chapman
said: There is a great deal OF land IN
this section particularly adapted to
grass and forage plants and Troy event
1allv must become the center OF
great dairy district. We must adapt
ourselves to our conditions and mus
begin now to improve the breeding o.
our cattle" Mr.. Chapman is one who
has demonstrated by practical tests the
value of clover as a dairy feed and ha'
nroven that the Potlatch will produce
nro6table crop.

Fitting the Collar.

The horse collar is made over form
while wet, and suits the taste OF the
maker. Then why not make the col
lar to fit the form of the neck that is to
wear it? To do this select a collar
that will fit as nearly as possible the
horse it is intended for. On an even
ing thoroughly wet cloths enough to
wrap it up, leaving the collar in that
condition all night. 1t need not be a
new one, an old one may be treated IN
the same manner, In the morning,
and while wet and soft, put the collar
on the horse and adjust it properly;
also the names and hame tugs, and
work the horse moderately during the
day, when the collar will dry and ao-

whose collar it must henceforth be. Il
by getting fatter or leaner the shape O
the neck is changed; a reshaping o
the collar is advisable, which can Dc
done as in the first place.
