STATES PUBLICITY MAN TELLS
OF WHAT IDAHO HAS AND
NEEDS AT SAN FRANCISCO
EXPOSITION.
Continued from page il


as attractive as possible in which all
the fruits of our state, as well as pota-
toes, are put up in choice packages so
that they can be carried home; and this
organization should be big and strong
enough to handle fruit in carload lots;
and it should also have city salesman
to sell this fruit not only from the store
but to the trade of San Francisco and
the cities around San Francisco Bay
This business should be in charge of
business man who is not only fruit
man but also understands the possibil-
tiles of this great opportunity. Thous-
ands of times at the exposition there
will be men and women there and say
I wish l could get some Of that beauti-
full fruit, when if there were a card
handed to them telling them where they
could go and buy it it would satisfy and
please them and be the means Of having
Idaho's fruit and potatoes talked of not
only all over the United States but all
over the world Idaho as state can
not do this, but Idaho people can.
Again, there should be an exhibit Of
the minerals in charge of competent
mining engineers who would have moth
ing to sell but simply to get in touch
with the mining people of the world
and explain to them the character Of
the ores and the possibilities of the
mineral resources of Idaho. This should
be done without any attempt to exploit
prospects or sell mining stock, which
would absolutely spoil the intent of the
work, and there can be no doubt but
what great benefit would come to our
state thereby. This is matter that
could be directed by the Idaho Mining
association, as they would know how to
assemble an office of that kind, and if
properly handled, there can be no doubt
as to the benefit we would receive.
The state of Idaho should have an Of
flee in San Francisco in charge of a
first-class man who has knowledge Of
all Idaho, not just one county, but the
entire state, and he should have maps
and information and everything that is
usual along those lines, SO that in dig
nified, truthful manner he may tell the
people about the opportunities of our
state. The land companies should have
a big office with big exhibit down
town where people could be invited to
and given an understanding of the op-
portunities of our state.
The Idaho commission has appropri-
ated $4,000 for livestock exhibit. IT
is not so much what we will have to
show, although what we have is as fine
pedigreed cattle, hogs and sheep as can
be found anywhere in the world, but it
is the fact of having the right kind of
man there to represent Idaho and to
get people to come into our state and

What He wanted.

tect the other day. THE American
millionaire has, as rule, an aesthetic
sense. He isn't like CashIey of Chill

viera. Arriving at the Palace hotel IN
Nice, he said to the clerk:

Yes, sir said the clerk. And
would you prefer, sir, sea view or

SOUTH WINS FIRST HONORs
Harrison Of Southern Praises Boys
ane Girls Who Set Record in
Germ and Tomato
Yields.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. on the
statement issued by the United States
department Of agriculture, showing
/ the results attained by the boys and
girls who won prizes in the Boys
Corn Clubs and Girls Canning Clubs,
in their respective states. in the sea
son Of 1913. President Harrison of the
Southern Railway company, said:
while the work done by the boys
and girls in all of the states was re-
markable, it is very gratifying to me
TO note that first honors, both in the
Boys Corn Clubs and the Girls Can
ming Clubs went to states traversed by
the lines of the Southern railway sys-
tenn. The wonderful record made by
Jerry Moore of South Carolina, who
grew PESTS bushels of corn on a sin
gle acre in 1910, directed attention
to the great advantages of the South
eastern states as a corn-growing To-
cality. Now comes Walker Lee Dun
son of Alabama, with a record of 1927
bushels on a single acre, setting new
Corn Clubs throughout the United
States. The superiority of the South
east for corn production is demon
strated not only by Walker Dunson's
remarkable record, but also by the
fact that the yields obtained by the
winning boys in each of the
states of Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and
Tennessee exceeded the highest yield
obtained by any boy in Northern or
Western state.
mo less remarkable than the rec
ord made by Walker Dunson in the
corn club work was that made by
Miss Clyde Sullivan of Georgia, who
grew 1854 pounds of tomatoes on
tenth of an acre, surprising by 1874
pounds the highest record made by
any girl in the North or West. Other
Southeastern girls did remarkably
well, notably Miss Lizzie Kelley, of
South Carolina, with record of A.
375 pounds on tenth of an acre.
Taken as a whole, the records of
the Southeastern boys and girls dem
onstrate the superior agricultural and
horticultural advantages of the South
eastern states, not only for purely
Southern crops which are usually as
ISOLATED in the public mind with the
North and West. They demonstrated
that the states south of the Ohio and
Potomac rivers and east of the Mis-
sissippi offer unsurpassed advantages
for the man seeking to engage in prof
liable diversified agriculture.

sunbonnet, and now Sookie stands just
as calmly for Mr.. Stoddard as she
used to stand for the Case sisters.
Divorce Record Broken.

Thomasville-There have been
more pecan nuts shipped out Of
Thomasville to other markets this
year than ever before and it seems
probable now that in few years the
shipment of nuts by carload lots will
be one of the standard businesses of
this section. The nuts sent from here
went to the north and middle west,
where they found ready sale. These
nuts were of the large paper shell
variety, and retailed in the cities
where sold at from 80 cents to 81
pound. The shipment of the trees
for planting is on now and all the
nurseries through this section report
large sales, showing that the planting
of pecan groves is still popular.

WY GRIP IS DANGEROUS.

At Is an Epidemic Catarrhal Fever
Caused BY a Bacillus that Gsner-

After the Acute Stage
Has Passed.
Polk County news-gazette. (Benton, Tenn.) 190?-191?, 1914-01-08

Do not make the error of regarding
grip as an exaggerated cold. There
IS a big difference between the two.
Grip is an epidemic disease that pol
sons the vital organs. When a per-
son has grip, the air passages are
alive with millions of baciln poison
ing the blood. The infected person
feels tired and exhausted.
Peruna is a Tonic Laxative.
1t requires a good tonic laxative to
keep the body of the patient as strong
as possible to counterfeit the effect Of
the poisons created by the grip bacil-
1us. An expectorant tonic with some
laxative qualities is the safest rem
edy. Such is Peruna. Beware es-
pecially of coal tar ppwders or tablets
because they lessen the vitality Of the
patient.
There is no specific for the grip. -
Peruna has been used with good
success in former grip epidemics. In
dications point to the return of grip
this winter.
Do not fail to read the experience
of former grip patients with Peruna-
Mrs. Gentry Gates. 8218 First Ave,
East Lake. Ala, writes: II had a
bad case of grip. I tried Peruna and
it cured me. can safely say it is a
fine medicine"
Mrs. Charles e. Wells, ST., 230
South ST., Delaware, Ohio, writes:
''After a severe attack of la grippe I
took Peruna and found 1t a good
tonic"
