Baker Sells Confectionery

A deal was closed here this
week whereby J. V. Baker dis
posed of his confectionery store
to Joseph Gaul, the latter to take
charge on the Goth of next month.
Mr.. Gaul is paying invoice price
for the stock, which will figure
at about $500.
During the past few years Mr..
Ia ;er has built up fine business
here and has made many friends
who are sorry to see him retire.
1t is his intention to remain here
until spring, when he will leave
with his family for Fort Benton,
Mont, and will probably later
engage in business at some point
in that state, he already having
acquired large land holdings near
that place.
Mr.. Gaul has been the popular
head clerk at the Cottonwood
Mercantile Co. store for the past
two years and is bound to make
good" in his new venture. He is
an Industrious, conscientious
young man and the public is as
sured of the same considerate
treatment at his hands as it has
received in the past from Mr..
Baker.
The Pacific telephone central
will remain at it's present loca-
ton, in the store, with Miss Stel-
la Mclaughlin in charge.
What might have been a seri-
GUS fire was narrowly averted at
the John Baer home Sunday
morning. Mr.. Baer had been
using a little gasoline in mending
a pipe in the wash room and
closed the door when he went to
breakfast. A few minutes later
Mrs. Baer noticed smoke pouring
from the room and gave the
alarm and then turned a stream
from the garden hose onto the
lanes and soon had them under
The fire probably start
I'd from the gas fumes and did
1amage to the amount of about
800. The fire boys made good
'un with the hose cart but did
lot arrive in time to be of much
assistance.

To the Voters of Idaho County
Having received the nomina-
ton for reelection to the office
of cl ,rk of tn, dis trict court, and
ex-officio auditor and recorder,
on the democratic ticket, | wish
to state that | deeply appreciate
the courtesies, marks of approval

ceived from the people of Idaho

reelection to this, the most i'm
portant office in the county, and

ton day | ask that you give my

capacity the same careful consid-
GRAFTON that you would give to

ness affairs. You are going to

will serve four years at a fixed
salary, and you certainly are en-
titled to the best service obtain
able.
In the support of my candidacy
l would say that l served many
years in this Office as a subordi-
nate, before l felt competent to
undertake the management and
control of such an important po-
sition, with its many intricacies
and responsibilities, and weighed
the matter carefully before l

sideration the fact that there are
many departments in this office,

be employed to quickly dispatch

to your best intesests to employ

that in any business, profession I
or occupation, the man who has
qualified by years of training and
experience in his chosen line can
accomplish more, get better re-
suits for the amount of money
expended and give better salts |
faction to his employer than one c

RUSSIA SUPPLIES EGGS
 AND BUTTER ID ENGLAND
Especial Cable)


 ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. 14.-Rus- sian eggs and Siberian butter have become most important factors in the progress of the worlds commerce. A London provision salesman recently stated that if the supply of these Russian products were suddenly cut off from the English market there would be an egg and butter famine in the British Isles. z
 The extent to which the Sibefian butter trade has consequently dev- eloped in a comparatively short time is striliingly illustrated by a report received from Barnaul in the pro- vince of Tomsk. In that town there has just been held the first CO., operative congress of delegates from the union of dairy farming "artels, or associations, of western Siberia. The event shows the rapid advance and success of the cooperative prn- ciple in Siberia as well as the swift growth of the butter industry.
 The chairman of the congress, in his closing speech, said:
 The union of west Siberian butter farming artels at the present time is the pride not only of Russia but also of western Europe The No voye Vremya' cites these words as unique. and a praiseorthy example fol this country, and as not in the least eXaggerating the real facts of the case. The union has been in existence only six years, and it's turnover, which in 1912 was 7,O00,O0O roubles, was more than doubled last year G913) to 14,500,O00, .roubles. It embraces 563 different butter making associations, with 502 depots The net profits of the union amount to 120,000 roubIes. The movement is being extended to cooperative flour mills, granaries, and cheese making, especially the latter industry.
 The. first experiment of producing Siberian "Cheddar' cheese for the English market was made in 1912, but the result was not brilliant The cheese turned out rather coarse, and not like the genuine article The union promptly sent an expert to England to study cheese making pro- cesses on the spot, and last year the result was so far satisfactory that about sixty-five tons of Siberian Cheddar cheese was sent to England where it was considered much better than Canadian Cheddar.
 Siberian dairy and peasant farmers find that while there appears to be an over production of butter for the European markets, there is a great want of cheese, and therefore they propose to devote particular atten tion to the development of this branch for the benefit of the British markets. The union already has ac- quired its own steamers and barges on the River Obi

PROTEST IS LODGED
 AGAINST HIGH RENTS

MILAN, Feb. 14.-Forty- eight mass meetings have been held in Naples within the past three weeks to. pro- test against the heavy general rise in house rents which have increased as much as p per cent.
 The other day crowd of 90, 900 vas addressed by local members of parliament, who, pending an appeal to the central government, urged the populace to refuse to pay the landi lords their eXtOrtionate demands.
 Rioting ensued in front of the pre- lecture, where the crowd shouted, We are dying of hunger" Mounted carabinieri charged the demonstrators many of whom had to be conveyed to hospitals to have their wounds dressed, while other groups ran about through the city tearing down all notices of apartments to let.
 The official bulletin of trade and commerce states that the crisis caused by unemployment in the building trades and among agrlcul7 tural laborers is now general through : out Italy. The terrible distress pre- vailing in Apulia, Sicily and Sar- dinia is attributed in great part to the drought experienced in those re- gions during the last eight months.

TO MUCH TEACHING
 7 IN ITALIAN SCHOOLS

< z
 : ROME, Feb. 14.-The Italian min- ister of education, Signor Credaro, las issued an important circular call ing attention to the over pressure in secondary schools. He orders the re- vision of the timetable of lessons and directs that no lesson is to last more than an hour, that there shall be an interval of at least two hours between the morning and afternoon classes, and at least two half-holi- days week for some schools and one half-holiday for others. Home lessons are not to be more than two hours a day, so that the pupil may have leisure for walks, sports, amuse- ments or light reading.
 Signor Credaro's opinion is all the more valuable because he himself was once a schoolmaster. and has
 had personal experience of the schol astic system.

MADRID. Feb. 14.-One of the Alfonso shows his interest in his poorer subjects is a scheme for workmen's dwellings. His basis for royal action was donation of s20,O0O, given by a Spanish resident in Peru, Senor Pastor. The king has added to this from the privy purse the government has granted Seville has given a free site and granted exemption of taxation repre-. senting a saving of 25 per cent on the rental value.
 The feature of the scheme con- sists in the erection of dwellings on mortgage. A beginning is being made by the construction of three groups of three storied houses situ- ated in a suburb of Seville, in prox- unity to the electricity works. Each house will contain lodgings for some thirty. families An artesianSwell will be sunk on the premises. and a cine matograph will be installed for edu- catiOnal purposes. The work is act lively proceeding. and it is hoped to inaugurate the buildings in early spring. With the experience ac- quired at Seville the king proposes to extend the benefits to workmen in Madrid and Saragossa and. on q smaller scale to employees in the royal domains of Elpardo and Aran- juez
