THINKS IDAHO IseooD ENOUGH
HI. A. Mowrey Returnes to BlackfoOt
After Looking Over the Coast
Expecting to Find Location.

H. AaMowrey has returned from
Burns and Lakeview, Oregon, where
he went to look over some homestead
land with the intention of locating.
His findings, however, did not corrob-
crate the reports he had from that
section before his visit. He found
that frost made its regular harvest
each month in the year and akali
is one of the best crops. From there
he went into California and Utah
where he looked over some farm lands
but returned home with the opinion
that Idaho is good enough for him.

EFFICIENT FIRE FIGHTING

To the average living in a town where there
moderately good fire department. the fire peril is the
of his troubles Why should he bother if the servant puts
live Goals into wooden barrel? The remen get there
before the blaze has assembled from the basement
the there is the insurance company At least
he feels. -
notable feature Of the international gathering of
fire fighters just held in New York has been the enthus-
iastc testimony rendered by foreign reme to the excel
lence of American fire departments.
Over in places in Germany, they say after the
reen get to blaze they stop and call the roll before
they allowed to turn hose the burning building.
The American fire department simply has had to cut
out all useless notions because Americans careless
and because most towns built of imsy materials The
American fills up his with nsy furniture perfect
); designed to as kindng wood He lights his fire
with kerosene, and matches Uttered about the house
if they toothpicks.
In Europe frepots microscopic, the furniture is
the most solid kind of slow burning hard wood and the
shell of most buildings is stone brick
The professional fireman pays dear for the light way
in which his fellow citizens take fire. His very efficiency
leads others to take foolish and costly risks He follows
trade that is perilous than the soldiers
The universally of insurance spreads abroad the
ton that fire does not cost the community much of
thing But the tribute paid Insurance. and in
the latest fire fighting TOOLS is big item in the cost of N
ing.
