BOY PHILOSOPHY.

An incident occurred i'll a city
schoolroom where boys and gillS,
from ten to thirteen years old,
were practicing gymnastics
(Which ought to jnmp better,
the boys or the girlsF" | que3-
toned.
"The boys" was the prompt
response.
"And why?' 1 continued.
Because boys ale always
jumping. All their games are
jumping games. Girls just sit
in the house and read books"
"Then tell me something that
girls can do better than boys"
'They can cook was the
ready reply. "They can sew"
came next.
A third boy, with freclIled face
and merry eyes, added demurely
"Two girls can stay mad at each
other longer than two boys cam"
The situation was interesting
The girls assented to the state
ment, and the boys, upon further
questioning, explained in boy
fashion:
"Well you can see how tits.
Boys like to go with a lot, and a
girl likes to so with one. When
one girl gets mad at another
girl, she goes off with her girl
friends and talk it over, and
they keep talking it over, and
that makes it worse still, and
they don't speak othe girl that
they'er mad at, and the girl
take sides and talk it over and
keep it up; and sometimes they
stay mad for weeks.'
Being in rersuit of the boys
theory, l made no comment on
choice of terms the word mad
was evidently understood by all
parties.
"How is it that the boys make
up so quicklyF' | pursued.
"Well, you see, we said That
boys like to play with lot; and
perhaps the boys that are mad
with each other are on the same
side in a BASEBALL game, and the
captain says to 'em, You two
fellows make up on get out!'
Then they make up. Or, may
be" the speaker continued earn

And do you learn, at the same

"WelI boys learn pretty soon.

another one says. How ma ~

And another says, Where are
you going to put the next batch

that you're mad they keep on,
and so you learn to laugh and

Chicago Land Show A
Great Success.
OREGON SHORT LINE-U UNION PAC-
IFIc EXHIBITS STRONG FEATURE.
Daily Illustrated Lectures.

Chicago, November 26th-The
United States Land anil lrrigat-
ion Exposition being held at the
Coliseum is proving the most
successful and far reaching land
show yet arranged in this country
Over $4,000 people were in at
tendance during the first week OF
the show, these being principally
from Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Iowa,
Michigan and other middle west
ern states, and it is assured that
the states traversed by theOregon
Short Line will secure many hum
dreds Of new settlers as result
of this attendance. 1t is safe to
estimate that the show will re-
cord an attendance of over
100000 up to its close on Dec.
9th.
The exhibits that are attract
ing more attention probably
than others are those of the
Union PacihcOregon Short Line
and related lines in which the
fruits, grains. potatoes and other
nroducts are strongly featured
and attractively displayed. Fri
day, Nov oath, was Idaho Day"
at the show, and many hundreds
OF bushels of Idaho potatoes
were given away to those in
attendance.
In addition to its great feature
exhibits, the Union Pacific Ore
gon Short Line system is cond-
ucting two lecture stages, where
daily lectures are given, illustrat-
ed with effective moving pictures
and stereoptican views,
The related lines expenditure
at .his show will run way up in
the thousands of dollars, but the
management feels that the mon
ev will be well spent when it is
realized what great benefits the
intermountain states will derive
from it.

Heavy Demand
for
State Money.
SEVERAL COUNTIES TO RECEIVE
THEIR PRO RATA PROVIDED
CALLED FOR.

That the state is aiming to Sc
rye the best interest of her people
is made clear in a letter from
Stephen D. Taylor of the Land
Board only a few days ago, in
reply to a gentleman from the
North who complained because
an application for a So, ,SO0''
loan was not allowed In full.
A ruling had been made by the
Board that loans for more than
$4,000 would not be made to
any one person. In this event
however the additional $4,000
was allowed when it was learned
that the County in which tins
gentleman resided has not rec
eived it's pro rata State money.
The latter point is the one that
appeals reasonable and which
should be followed, and no doubt
is, bv the officials in their dealings
with the people of the State.
There are a great many farmers
on these new projects who need
money on long terms at low
rate of interest who are entitled
to a share of the States funds
and where needed, and desired,
they should be favored with such
loans, as they usually have the
best of security and the only kind
on which State money can be
obt btained.

On Saturday last a party OF
Railroad Officials came I'D the
branch line in a Special Car on a
Tour of inspection, which is a
part of the visit they are making
over the Idaho Division. The
party was made up of ] A. Mont

D. {. McNitt, Gen. Auditor, !. A.

These gentlemen were well
pleased with the trip and were
agreeably surprised with the
great growth of this country,
Ten years ago Vice Pres. Mont.
gomery made a visit into this
division and to return now seems
a revelation to him, he remarked.
They were met at Burley by
W. I. Jack. John l.. Smith, los.
Pineree and Nh Eccles who were
visiting in the adjacent towns in
the interest of Beet Culture. who
were invited to make the trip
over the Idaho division with
these gentlemen.
Messrs. Jack and Eccles accom-
panied them as far as Jerome.
but were prevented going farther
oweing to visits they were sched-
uled to make in the interest of
the Sugar Interests, while Mr..
Smith and Pingree went in other
directions.
The Railroad Officials were
enthusiastic over the splendid
outlook for this valley and due
returns will no doubt result from
their trip.

Bulletin on Vinegar.

1t is against the laws of Idaho
to sell vinegar from any cask or
keg, unless the said cask or kee
is branded or stenciled on the heaJ
with the true name of the vinegar,
name of the article or articles
from which it is made, and tn,
name and address of the manu-
facrurer. The placing OF printed
label on the cask or keg is neither
branding or stencillng. Dealers
should see that the head of the
ssask or keg containing this infor-
ma tion is on top, exposed to the
vieiT of the consumer, for whose
benfft this information is re-
quirfd by law.
Al dealers should get guaran-
teestrom the wholesaler orjobber
or manufacturer, that the vineg-
arr they buy comply with the
phre food la WIS of Idano. We have
4ately been clearing of the mar
ket a lot of distilled vinegar, col
ored to initiate the cider vinegar.
Idaho farmers who are manu-
featuring good grade of pure
cider vinegar from their apples
are going to be protected from
this spurious stuff, and notice is
therefore given to all interested
that the laws of Idaho deems a
product adulterated ifit be mixed,
colored or stained in a manner
whereby damage or inferiority is
concealed. In our opinion the
addition of coloring matter to
any type of vinegari is for the sole
purpose of concealing damage or
inferioritv. and is therefore pro-
prohibited.
