ton to the foregoing that a few in
dlyiduals of means may see fit to
invest largely in this institution that
stands so unquestionably for the
highest interests of the community
life and that they may in this man

when the Association shall stand

FLY SCREENS OR SWATTERS
WHICH?

Don't domesticate the fly this sum-
mer. Keep him out of the house,
where he belongs. We can at least
keep him away from our food. OF
course, it would be ideal to abolish
! flies altogether. to stamp out the
whole race of flies and then never
have to bother about them any more,
but we can't hope for that for at
least a long time yet When it comes
to annihilating any particular pest,
bug or insect by ordinary human
power, it becomes big job. About
the best we can do is to introduce
some other pest, bug, insect or ma
tural enemy and let him do the work
for us, and even introducing natur-
al enemy does not always succeed.
For the time being, therefore we
may about as well content ourselves
with screening our houses to keep
most of the flies out. At best, flies
are more or less of an unnecessary
evil If we would keep flies out of
our houses, groceries, markets and
milk rooms, about ninety per cent of
the damage they do would be pre-
vented.
Fly swatters have their legitimate
place, but don't think for minute
that fly swatter takes the place of
well screened doors and windows.
Screens are on the job all the time,
but you can't afford to be on the job
very long with your little swatter.
When and Where to Swat.
Fly screens keep most of the flies
and mosquitoes out of the house.
SKATERS were only intended to put
on the finishing touches. The best
TIME to use the fly swatters is just
before meal times. If the kitchen
and dining room doors and windows
are well screened, it takes only a |
few minutes to swat the few flies
that get in, and then you can pre-
pare and eat a meal in peace and |
safety. Try It once.
Right now is the time to get in
your best work on the fly. Go after
his breeding place. 1t is a ten-to-
one shot that somewhere aruond your
premises there are accumulations of
lorse manure or garbage, or other
wen worse fly breeding material. Re
move it, bury it, or have it plowed
lnder before the flies beat you to it.

Receipts
Expenditures

| MUCH effort mas D9en required &c
bring the work to it's present stand
ards since the Association has had
to be developed new in the com
munity. Much effort is still demand
ed and will continue to be in sus-
tanning what has already been es-
tablished and in developing new lines
that are intended to be constructive
of finer and more efficient living
and work on the part of Payette' s
boys and men.
Why the Y. M. C. A. Is Still in Debt.
The fund raised to pay for the
building and its equipment was TAX
en- in voluntary subscriptions pay
able in one, two, and three years
from date of subscription. However,
it was necessary to meet most of
the cost Immediately after the COM
pletion and equipment of the build
ing. This necessitated the negotia-
ton of loans on which 10 per cent
interest has been paid although eff
forts have been made to get low
er rate. On April 80, 1910, this in
debtedness amounted to $9,273.4O
which was reduced to $4,000, cal
ling for $77500 interest annually. AS
the receipts for membership, rents,
maintenance, subscriptions etc. have
not materially exceeded the running
expenses further indebtedness has
thus ben incurred, now amounting
to s1377.10, on $1O27.10 of which 10
per cent interest is also accruing.
This brings the amount of interest
up to total of $S77.71 per annum.
The Obligation.
With the splendid support that has
always been accorded the association
by the community, and with the in
debtedness cleared away, the main
tenance of the work will be com
paratively easy matter. In view of
the large investment in the associa-
ton made by many people, in the in
terest of the best work of the associ-
alton in its unique field, and to make
the ultimate cost as small as posi-
BILE to the community, it seems ur-
gent to lift the Indebtedness at the
earliest possible date. When this
has been done the energies of the in
'titution will be available for more |
effort upon the great |
work. for which it was called into be- |
ng and for which it is living today.
Solution Proposed.
The foregoing facts indicate the fl |
ancial problem confronting the Pay
tie Young Mems Association at this
our. They have occasioned seri-
us thought and study on the part of
he Board of Directors and the en-
loyed officers of the Associations.

GETS 'POSSUM
BY PARCELS POST
POSTMASTER GENERAL GETS
THOROUGHBRED FROM VIRGIN
iA-oTHER OELlcACiES.

Washington, Nov. 23.-The parce
post system is rapidly solving the
high cost of living problem for Post
master General Burleson. Farmers all
over the country appear to be try
ing out the system in a small way
by addressing some choice or freak
farm product direct to the postmas-
ter general himself, with the result
that the Burleson home in the last
few days has been deluged with prize
turnips, freak carrots, jumbo onions
and smoked sausage fresh from the
farm.
The limit was thought to have been
reached the other day when an ad
miring farmer on the lower Potomac
sent him a Mallard duck and yellow
leg plover, but today the climax was
capped when a toothsome pOssum
reached the Burleson home via par
Gel post from across the line in
Virginia.
There was one parcel post pack
age, however, at which the postmas-
ter general baked. 1t came from a
Michigan hennery and contained a
dozen guaranteed eggs. In view Of
the prevailing price of eggs, the
postmaster general ruled that accept
ance of the parcel of eggs would
violate his traditional policy of not
accepting valuable and costly gifts
fro mocnstituents while in public
office.

Transportation lies at the base of
the nations activities and comes near,
er to being the gauge of the country's
prosperity than any other single fac
tor. Whatever affects the interests
of the railroads is, therefore, some
thing vitality close to the interests of
the people. The Interstate Commerce
Commission holds a relation to the
welfare of that country that goes
beyond the influence that can be eX-
eXerted by the courts themselves. Yet
the public does not concern itself
nearly so much about the decision Of
the commission as it does in the in
dustrial decisions of the bench. The
railroads have been seeking for some
years back to secure mitigation of
the burden they are bearing because
of the increased cost of the materials
and constant lacking up of wages
upon the one hand and the straight
jacket of inability to increase freight
rates or passenger fares upon the
other The most experienced railroad
men in the country are predicting an
outcome of the situation in a way

RESTRAINING ORDER GRANTED
BY JUDGE CARNEY STAYS ALL
WORK OF BOARD.

oklahoma City, Nov. 23.-Members
of the board of agriculture assert
that J. II. Connell and other supposed
deposed officers of the state A. and
VI. college at saltwater put one ov-
err on them in the recent court pro-
eeedings before District Judge Car
ney, which resulted in the board be
ing restrained from further use OF
its official axe until the status Of the
bord can be definitely determined
before the court of last resort.
1t is restraining order and not
an injunction that Judge Carney has
granted. and therein lies the Joker"
Had it been an injunction according
to members OF the board, some speedy
action could be obtained, but being
a restraining order, as it is, the board
must sit by and wait until the SUI
preme court has passed on the yari-
GUS perpleNing questions presented
in the quo warranto proceedings
against the present board before any,
thing further in the way Of discharg-
ing employees can be done.
The board will meet in Oklahoma
City again Tuesday and at that time
the legal status of the situation will
be thoroughly considered. The board
is considering the advisabiity, it is
stated, of employing additional coun-
sci to assist the attorney general in
his fight to uphold the present board
The restraining order granted by
Judge Carney only prohibits the
board from discharging any more en-
ployes.

relief may be found. This appears
from the Holland letter in today's
insatiate, and every increase of wage
in any OF the industries subsidiary to
selves means just that much subtrac-
tion from possible profits without any
means for reCouping Ever since the
panic of 1907 the railroads have been
under the burden of ever-increasing
wage demands and added costs, and
yet they have been debarred from
making advance in rates. The country
has experienced great prosperity, but
the railroads have been kept out from
the promised land The time is at
hand when the roads VIII ask to have
rates advanced to offset the addi
tional burdens they bear and to en-
able them to expand in behest to the
demands of traffic and to keep up
their rolling stock and to generally
maintain their equipment. Yet they
will do so under the popular pressure
to keep them subject to the rates
and eXactiOns now imposed through
the commission. The country is SYM
pathetic with the demands of the rail
roads to the extent they are interpre-
tive of the general advance in costs
that are feature of the times. They
know that to starve the traffic COM
panies is to throttle trade.
The interpay of interest between a
large number of industries and the
railroad carries the reflex of condi-
tions into the homes of innumerable
workers of the land. The people are
vitally affected thereby The roads
have had to expand; they have had
to spend more than their earnings !
This is a situation too full of critical |
significance to be lost upon the minds |
of thoughtful persons. Not only do not !
net earnings mpon the outstanding |
stock rise, but they are falling, and !
multitudes of modest stockholders |
who depend upon their railroad hold
ings for their support are seriously
thereby AS go the railroads,
so goes the country. The food or ebb
tide of their prosperity marks TIE
food or ebb tide of the country's
welfare. Their protection from irk-
some and impossible burdens is, there.
lore, in the interest of millions of
workers and of millions of others who
ire not directly related to the indus
ries Immediately incclved in the
of the railroads.
1t is not to be supposed that the

is eagerness to reflect popular preju.
