BIRD SLAUGHTER IS COSTLY
Direct Connection Between Increase OF

this country was as large today as 1t
was 60 years ago, it would mean a
saving of $3.50, 900, 900 to American

in his opinion, between the multiplied
ton of insect pests, which are among
the gravest problems of modern agri-
culture, and the slaughter of migra-
tory birds.

window, give an effective picture OF
beauty to the %passer-by as well as to
the inmates of the room.
For a small window, and one from
which you must get light for the
room, be sparing of the plants. There
is nothing pretty in a dark room, the
cause of which is the window literally
hung and placed full of all manner OF
foliage.

the winter that one car neither get

The Spokesman-Review cartoon
lst pictures Senator Hepburn
making a speech while the rest
OF the senator's are falling over
each other making for the exits.
There is no danger of that hap
pening to either of the senators
representing our neighboring
state. Senator Poindexter s name
never appears in print only when
his wife entertains, and the name
of his colleague is so seldom
mentioned that few people know
who he is or what he stands for.
1t is different with Idaho sena-
tors. Borah is a national figure,
and it is a mistake to say that
Hepburn ''cuts no figure" at the
national capital. Our senior SEN
ator is apt to get on the wrong
Side of question, but he always
has his say, and he ism t afraid to
say it. The difference between
Hepburn and the majority of SEN
ators is that the Idaho senator
speaks as he thinks, while the
other chairwarmers are afraid to
speak their mind. Right or
wrong, we must admire the man
who has the courage to express
his views in the open and fight
for his convictions.-Kooskia
