Trading in the Latter Entirely Professional;
National Biscuit and Texas Company Stock De-
pressing Features of the Day
By Thomas c. Shotwell.

Whether the Texas company will benefit
from the ight now proceeding between
the Standard OIL president and the Ger
man Petroleum Sales company Is not yet
certain. Today's collapse may mean that
the outlook In this direction has under
gone change for the worse. Those who
buy Texas company stock must do so
purely as q speculative venture.
The comptroller OF the currency's de-
tailed statement. issued today. reveals
that of the tremendous expansion OF
s3i3 n00,0 900 in loans during the last twelve
months. the eastern states were respon-
sible for sl20, 600. 900. despite the fact that
their cash holdings underwent a decrease
Of nearly $4,000, 900 The east was the
only section to show an appreciable loss
in cash. Moreover, the New York banks
cut down their holdings OF securities by
sl5 ,000,6 600, whereas twelve months earlier
they reported an increase of $4,000. 900
In that twelve months they also added
SOS. .000.0 900 to their supply OF cash.
Tho money market, however, did not
shaw the slightest concern over these sig
nifcant figures.
Total transactions today We're less than
200 900 shares and reflects the indisposl-
ton on the part OF the professional in
terests TO begin discounting better times

The Star-Mirror cannot urge toe
strenuously the plan recently proposed
by Attorney w. e. Lee of Latah cOun-
ty to the end that the people may have
a voice in the selection of their party
nominees. Idaho has the direct prim-
airy, or thinks it has, at least, and it
is in conformity with public sentiment
hat the people should name their NOM
inees. Every county in the state
should let the people, through a prim-
airy, determine whom they wish to sup
port. Latah county republicans will
be given an opportunity to nominate
their ticket. Why not in all the coun-
ties?

THE REINDEER INDUSTRY
FLOURISHES IN ALASKA

petually in the custody and ownership
of the natives.
1--WE usually establish a reindeer
herd wherever we have native
school. The school superintendent
has supervision over the herd, though
the animals are owned by the natives
When a new herd is to be started
young, ambitious natives are selected
as apprentice herders for a four-year
term. For his first years services, in
addition to his living, the apprentice
receives six reindeer; the second year
eight, and the third year ten, and the
fourth year ten. So that what you
may term a journeyman herder owns
81 reindeer. They are then free to
breed their animals and sell their
calves or stock of any age or sex to
the other natives.
Reindeer are food, clothing and
transportation to the natives. AS food,
reindeer is delicious, resembling both
mutton and beef, but more palatable
than either. Along in October, when
the deer are fat from summers
feeding on grasses and foliage, they
are best for eating. The natives take
reindeer tallow and mix red moss ber-
ries into it, making a dish that looks
like ice cream and which is fine to eat.
"The reindeer finds his food along
he ways. He can paw through the
% eat. He is strong, so the driver
ian ride. And the reindeer can travel
10 miles day and keep it up for
week at a time"

King Peter of Servia, which was stolen
from the grave two days ago.
The unidentified ghouls who broke
into the grave and stole the head did
not take any of the decorations and
jewelry which were buried with the
prince, and they did not disturb the
body of his wife.
At first the robbery was ascribed to
some Servian revolutionists as re-
venge on King Peter, who has pre-
pared a splendid tomb for his parents
in Servia and had arranged for the
transfer of the body in 1912.

COUNTRY NEEDS
MORE FARMERS

SPOKANE, Jan. 6.-"An agricultural
school or an experiment station should
be established in the outskirts of eve
~ large city in the United States" de-
clares r. J. MacLean, secretary of the
Spokane Chamber of Commerce. He
believes this would, in a measure
solve the cost of high living and would
direct attention to the production of
basic resources. Continuing he said !:
Il do not agree with the president
of the Washington Education associa-
ton when he says that more attention
should be devoted in the schools to
commercial lines. l believe we should
first devote our attention to education
in agriculture and mining. These are
the pursuits from which all wealth
emanates and on which all other pur-
suits are dependent Increase activ-
ity in these lines and you, perforce,
must increase activity in commercial
and all other lines.
IF the schools teach agriculture, ag-
riculture will become more popular.
We will then have more farmers, and
naturally more production and more
resources.
IF l had my way about it there
would be an agricultural school or
an experiment station in the outskirts
Of every large city to educate young
men in things pertaining to the farm
The difficulty now is that the city man
who wants to learn something of agri-
culture must usually go long dis
lance away, entailing great expense.
In the cities there are thousands of
people who merely exc out an ex-
istence. How much better they would
be if they were on farms.
"The country boy who comes to the
city for the first time is very green
with respect to city ways. But there |
Is nothing greener than the city boy
On farm for the first time Our city |
people do not know enough about |
and if they knew more we |
would be able to solve, in a measure,

If Latah county is to get any bene-
fit from her gold medals at the Spo-
kane Interstate fair, and later at the
National Apple show, let it be impress
ed that the citizens of this county
must keep up sufficient noise to pre-
vent the outside fellow from forgetting
about it.

1t isn't what community owes, but
what it is that spells business stagna-
ton or prosperity. Some of the best
towns in the nations are head over
heels in debt, while it is no trouble
to find dead ones that are out of debt.

CANADA REGRETS.

Colfax Gazette: According to ]. A.
Mcdonald, editor of the Toronto Globe
the people of Canada now regret their
recent action in rejecting reciprocity.
He contends that they really favored
the proposed trade agreement, but were
carried away by the annexation bug
bear. Voters were swayed by the
"unintelligent emotions of the crowd"
and acted rashly, but now they are in
a repentant mood. They will tell you
that the Canadian system of elections
is far superior to that in the United
States. In the Dominion, as was done
when the reciprocity failed to make
progress in parliament, it is possible to
appeal directly to the people on grave
issues and to bring on a general cleo
ton within a brief period. In theory
this is an ideal method, but evidently
not SO in practice, if Mr.. Mcdonald is
correct in his statement. Canada had
attained unparalleled prosperity I'M
der the Laurier government, and
would have been an enormous gamer
by reciprocity, but in resentment
aroused by false cry her people
'epudiated the proposition. Too lit
lie time was given to study its mean
ng and effect. So the people had
heir say, and they said no.
