As a cold-blooded business matter
taking all sentiment out Of the prop
osiiion, your stock in Idaho Nation
al will be worth as much. and n,
more, than It is worth from an in
terest-bearing point Of view. Blu

within FIVE years Idaho National
Harvester stock will be worth $50
per share. Within ten years it will
be 10 demand at a price in excess Of
500 per share. II is for the reasons
above given, and based upon the
knowledge be has Of the machine

Jerome J Day declare that the es-
Inmates above given are too low. In
conversation With the Slar-Mirror on
different occasions Mr.. Day has in
sisted that the above estimates are
now beyond the realms Of probable
iy. Mr.. Day believes Idaho Ma
iional viii exceed anything its pro-
moters dare predict for il. Let US
add just another word. You will say !:
"If Mr.. Day believes all this Why
don't he buy up all the stock2" If
you will ask Mr.. Day be will prob
ably tell you, as he told the writer.

ness as big As Idaho National is soon
to be is enough for any one man.
Mr.. Day pointed out that in a BUSH
ness like Idaho National it vas bet
ter 10 have the stock in the hands Of
many than 10 concentrate it in the
hands Of a few, and as a reason
asked: Suppose / or any person
owned It all. There isn't a man in
the country who would care a whoop
whether It succeeded or failed. and
I would find myself under the ne
cessity Of devoting every minute Of
my time and every ounce Of my en-
ergy to developing it. With tn.
stock distributed We have as many
boosters as We have stockholders,
for people work for their own inter-
esis, and this Of itself is an item
that some seem to overlook. Be-
sides all this there is not a single
rich individual, care not how much
money they may have, who can make
a success Of a manufacturing indus
Try like Idaho National, for It re-
7uires the combined energy and
brains and constructive power of
many to bring about success" And
10 this Mr.. Day added another sug-
gession. "How many Of you would,
Il you had the money, take upon
POUR shoulders the worry and res
and hard druggery that
Eould be involved in the sole owner
ship Ct Idaho Nationally"
Think Of these things and then
top worrying over what some other
nan does. Don't waste time hgur-

therefore, absolutely safe; and if it
