TO BUTTERMAKERs

The Pure Food commissioners
working in this end of the state an
nounce the following form to be used
on butterwrappers:
Idaho State Dairy Butter manu-
featured ly (give name and address).
This package contains 16 ounces net. y
It is not necessary to show whether
the maker of the butter separates the
cream by gravity or by machinery.
The butter must be pure and sweet
when offered to the trade, and anyone
having strong or short-weight butter
on the market is liable to prosecution.
If the dealer is found with butter
on hand that does not come up to
these requirements he Is liable to
pkosecution, whether he has been de-
ceiyed or not. The label will enable
him to go back to the customer for
relief. and thus the responsibility
rests with the producer in the end.
Tn order to protect the deale-. slight
allowance should be made for shrink
Asge. but Just Low much the shrinkage
amounts to will depend upon the con-
di.ion of the butter, and this can be
aatermined by weighing roll at in
teryals of few days.
Persons using any other form than
the one outlined above should change
the form when they get the next order
printed. ztl

WORK FOR EDUCATION
MANY STUDENTS SUPPORT
THEMSELVES IN COLLEGE.
Statistics Gathered at Princeton Uni
Versity Showing the Varied oeeu-
pstions That Were Taken Up
by the Young Men.

Statistics recently gathered at
Princeton, show that 40 per cent Of
the students are working their way
through college. This means that Of
the entire enrolment of LAP stu
dents 577 are helping themselves TO
gain an education. These figures in
clude all those who are making
money In small and large amounts.
and do not mean that the men are
moi getting outside assistance OF a
substantial kind. Students paying
half their expenses are included in
90 per cent. figures, and those paying
their way through without any help
from others could be put within me
ten per cent limit
There ere scores of ways Of making
money at Princeton, and the fact
that so many students take advantage
Of them is sufficient evidence that to
work little on the side is consid-
cred highly honorable by the student
body as a whole. and It explains the
further fact, that among those work
Ing their way through are some Of
the most prominent men in college
both in athletics and in scholarship.
One of the most popular ways OF
making enough money to help pay Q
term bill or keep the recipient In
spending money is work on the col
lege publications
Agencies of various kinds-from
laundry work to socks that won't
tear out-giye profitable employment
Three principal laundries doing stu
dent work have student representa-.
tivos. These men are usually ath
letes, as are those who have clothing
and athletic goods agencies. Calen
dars are sold by students at one dol
lar apiece and cigarettes, tobacco
stems, pennants, sofa pillows, pipes
and the like are offered to the stu
dents, but to freshmen especially, at
the beginning of every college year.
Freshmen carry baskets around. well
stocked with pretzels and chocolates.
Soft hat men come through the dormi'
tories In the fall and straw hat men
IN the spring. Shoes are sold by stu
dents, and orders for clothing of varl
oNs kinds are taken, Program priv
'eges on the occasion of athletic
events are frequented. and the ad-
yortising thereon yields good re.
turn.
Students are agents for typewriters,
bicycles, kodaks, golf sticks, caps,
lanes and the like. The privilege of
taking newspaper subscription on the
campus is considered a good one.
Magazines are represented In Prince
ton by the score. Pressing establish
ments yield some money.-New York

The Joplin Morning Tribune, Jop-
Inns new and popular newspaper, is
now showing up the Joplin Globe as
the most open and bare-faced trust de-
fender in the west.
Yesterdays Joplin Morning Tribune
copies column editorial from last
Saturdays Globe; written in defense
of that greatest and most harmful
trust In the United States--the steel
trust. The Globe says:
"The men who are at the head of
the steel corporation are master
minds They are leaders today be-
cause this is day Of business. The
counterparts of just such minds were
the great generals in the days of
militarism, great ecclesiasts in the
days of church dominance, the war
rlors bold in the days of chivalry"
The Globe must think that the peo-
pie of the west are deporably ignorant,
IL it expects them to swallow such ut
ter nonsense today In 1912 neither
great party can expect to elect a ma
tional ticket except upon platform
that promises the people some relief
from the eneroachments of these great
robber combinations Yet in the face
of all this the Globe wants us to start
little Sunday schools, to teach the peo-
pie to fall down and worship trusts.
Joplin is to be congratulated that
in the new Morning Tribune 1t has at
last secured a purely democratic news
paper. that will represent the people
and not the trusts.

NOT THE FOLKS UPSTAIRS
What II Really Was That Woke Mr..
FlatdweIler Up at Five In the
Morning.

The folks upstairs are pretty
noisy" said Mr. Flatdweller. "and
they stay up late. but they are not
early risers: they let us sleep in the
morning. and so We were surprised
and shocked on this particular morn.
ing when we heard them pounding
around up there at a great rate at
a. u.
They seemed TO be all up and all at
work, moving all the beds and bu-
reaus and trunks, shifting them around
and dragging and pushing them and
letting them all slam down, sometimes
In succession and sometimes all at
once
What In Sam Hill do you suppose
they could be up to there at this hour7
Were they going to move and getting
an early start? Or what was the mat.
ter with them? And then they were
all quiet for about half a minute and
then-slam bang. rattlety whoop!
Bing. boong! Who-oo-oo. bang, bang.
bang. boo-oongl Boonglety boongl
Boong! Boongl
And then we woke up. It wasn't
the folks upstairs; 1t was a thunder
storm coming up, so then we smiled
and turned over and went to sleep
again, thinking for the umpty-steenth
time as We dropped off that It never
pays to Jump at conclusions"
