A PLEA FOR CO. OPERATION. AND A PLAN
BY George P. Hall.

! lar to those of the Rochdale Of Eng
land, which is perhaps the most ideal
simple and successful business ven
ture in Europe, and perhaps the larg
est. Last year their sales are sale
to have been 500 million dollars. Al
economy is their watchword, cash
dealing is imperative, even as with
the postal service. This vast bust
ness was organized by % very poor
working men whose combined capital
was less than 500.
The objection will be raised that
England or Europe is one vast mar
ket place. Our reply is, that Idaho
and eastern Oregon call for more can
ned goods than we can supply; that
Idaho gets her canned corn from Iowa
and Maine, her peas and beans from
Wisconsin, tomatoes from Utah, and
canned fruits from California; that
the small area within half days ride
from Emmett sends to the orient
every month thousands of dollars
which we pay for vegetables, and
which might be grown on the rich
bottom lands and slopes, above and
below Emmett, and the money go into
home building at home.
These results can be accomplished
in one way-thru Cooperation, and
the community reap the benefit.

On Wednesday evening of last week.
at 5 o'clock, pretty wedding took
place at Caldwell, in parlors of the
Saratoga hotel, when Miss Alta Rob-
inson of this city became the bride of
Berle Wilson of Weiser. The cere-
mony was performed by Rev. Mr..
Sias of the Christian church of Cald-
well. The bride is daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. ]. S. Robinson and has been
a resident of Emmett since childhood.
The groom owns large ranch near
Weiser, but is former Emmett boy,
having come TO the State from Wy
oming with F. A. DeClark, with whom
he made his home until few years
ago. Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson left this
week for their home on the ranch, fol-
lowed by the best wishes of their
friends.

THE THREE MUSKETEERs
Electric Theater Arranges for One
Big Feature Each Week


The Electric has arranged to show
one program a week of the Para.
mount Pictures, showing the greatest
aggregation of talent and stars ever
released through one concern.
Such well known stars as Mary
pickford, Daniel Frohman, Edward
Tbeles, VIM. H. Crane, and many
others are shown in all of their pro-
auctions.
Some people seem to have the idea
that pictures of this class should be
shown at the same price as the reg
ular program, which is simply i'm
possible to do. The rental charges
for good feature productions are four
or five times as much as regular re-
leases.
The right to reproduce a copy
righted play or book is often pur-
chased at an expense of several thou
sand dollars. A star actor or actress
is paid ten, twenty or thirty thousand
dollars to enact his favorite role be-
fore the camera.
There should be difference in pic
lures. There is a difference, just the
same as there is in merchandise You
certainly would not expect to go to a
dry goods store and purchase silk for
the price of Gallo. So it is with
pictures.
The prices for the Paramount Pro-
gram to be shown at the Electric
Theatre will be 10c and zoe.
The first feature will be "The Three
in six reels, to be shown
New Years night.
Beginning Monday, January IL, we
will show one feature each week.

News Brings JOy

Tomorrow will be the happiest New
Years Day Mr.. and Mrs A. r. White
have had in number of years. The
reason is that a letter received a few
days ago from their son Earl stated
that he was on the road to recovery,
with promise of becoming well again.
Only those who have known of the
brave fight for life that Earl has made
for three long years and of the devo-
ton and loving care and nursing. of
his parents can understand the Joy
which that news brought, and what a
burden it lifted from their hearts.
Since leaving here last fall, Earl has
been under the care of a skillful
specialist of San Francisco. X-ray
exposures disclosed a tumor at the
base of his brain. The cure is being
performed without the surgeons
knife, and the letter stated that he
had that day walked six blocks, far
Their than he has walked at one time
in three years. The news is also very
to EarPs many staunch
friends here, who have admired his
bravery and wondered at his unfail-
ing cheerfulness and patience, though
his body was racked with excruciating
pain. The doctor says the young
man will recover and be strong again.

The Department of Commerce ant
Labor places the number of the un
employed at five millions. Secretar,
Redfield Of President Wilson's Cabi
net said: "There are 100 million Of
US in America and expect the coun-
try was made for the whole, and not
for a part Of US. If 10 million Of us
are comfortable and 10 million Of US
are miserable, we need not expect to
stay here great WHILE"
With an abundance of raw material,
machinery and labor, why should we
be miserable and idle and lack the
wealth which is everywhere about us7
The individual cannot command mat
srial, machinery or labor, but united
with his fellowse, the world is his. If
this be true, the logical course is Co.
operation, Fortunately, we have
many successful examples Of this
method of conducting industry. Sec
rotary Houston Of the Department of
Agriculture says there are more than
5000 co-operatives in the United
States, but they are, almost without
exception, co-operatives where only
the producer is concerned, and for the
purpose Of increasing his profits, and
exploiting the consumer. A one-sided,
incomplete cooperation. This princi-
pie applied to marketing has scored
many successes--and some failures.
Cooperation for the purpose of i'm
proving the standard of breeds of do
mesticated animals has wrought re-
volution along these lines in Europe
and some of the eastern states. We
all know what Cooperative Elevator
and Creamery Companies have ac-
complshed, but the genuine, unselfsb,
Consumers Cooperative, such as the
Rochdale of England, and several
others of Central Europe, has yet to
be established in this country.
An effort along this line is being {
made by few workers and farmers I
in this section, supplemented by others {
in neighboring towns, to establish at {
Emmett general farming, gardening
and orchard enterprise, embracing
Canning and preserving of all vegeta-
BILE and fruit products, as well as di-
versified farming. That such an en- I
tsrprise under efficient management is n
capable of greater economies than pre- S
sent methods does not need Demon
stration. With several thousand acres e
In vegetables and fruits and other G
farm crops, the labor cost per acre
will be divided even as Standard Oil 3
has divided the cost of it's products.
The difference being that in the one is
ease, few men are exploiting a v
world, and in the other, the world of
sbor will reap it's reward. TO the o,
arm factory, as the organization m
grows, will be added other factories
