LADY DIDN'T KNOW

Speaking of the youngsters"
smilingly remarked Congressman
Maurice Connolly of Iowa, reminds
me of little 5-year-old Bessie, who re-
Gently spent. the night with a woman
friend of her parents.
Everything was sweet and beauti-
full until bedtime came, when little
Bessie dropped to her chubby knees
and clasped her hands, fully expect
ing the prompting that she usually
got at home.
But there was no prompting from
the hostess, and long was the silence.
! Finally Bessie realized that it was I'D
to her.
Please, Lord she softly said,
you will have to 'scuse me tonight.

I'm staying with lady that don't
know any"
The world is full of things to be
thankful for if one could only get
i1hold of them.

VERY DIFFICULT


Nowadays much more attention is
paid to the personality and inclina-
tons of prisoners than was the case
little while ago.
That is why the governor of Bog
moor Prison was not surprised when
he was told that Convict So had re-
fused to pick oakum.
What are his reasons for refus-
ing?" he asked the warder who had
reported the case to him.
"Says he wants to carry on with
his trade, sir" answered the angry
official
and very natural, too. How often
must tell you that prisoners who
have trades are not to waste their
time picking oakum? am surprised
at you wasting my time like this,
Smith. Of course, the man must
work at his trade. See that it is done
at once. That will do"
VERY good, sir!" answered the
warder. But" he remarked, as he
went out of the door, Number So
is an aviatorp'

S. D. SIMPSON GIVES
BONDS TO APPEAR
when WANTED

At the preliminary hearing of S d.
Simpson, former cashier of the Am
erican National bank OF Caldwell, held
at Fort Worth, Texas, Saturday, be-
fore a United States commission on
charges of violating the National
banking laws, he was held to appear
in court and placed under bonds in
the sum of $500O00, which were fur
nished. Mr.. Simpson gave bonds to
appear before the federal grand jury
or i'll court when wanted. He will ar
rive at Boise on or before Feb 10
when the federal grand jury convenes.
The specific charges against Simp-
son have never been made public.
Both he and his brother, w C. Simp-
son, are. under bonds to appear in
court when needed.
President M. A. Devers and Gabe
Broiller, bookkeeper in the bank,
went to Fort Worth to testify against
Simpson. Mr.. Devers is now visiting
his daughter at Washington and Mr..
Broiller is en- route home.
The work of settling up the affairs
of the American National bank are
proceeding expeditiously under Re-
ceiver Brown. No statement as to
what the bank will pay the depositors
and stockholders has been made pub
lie. 1t will be some little time before
Receiver Brown will get the affairs
of the bank in such shape that he can
make a statement. 1t is still felt that
the depositors will receive practically
all of their money while many think
that they will be paid in full with a
residue left for the stockholders.

sunny SLOPE Will
ESTABLISH LOCAL
CREAMERY

The farmers of Sunny Slope We'd
nesday evening took the first step to-
ward the organization of cooperate
creamery company. They held large
and we'll attended meeting. By special
invitation Mr.. J. S. Stinson, secretary
and Mr. r. A. Orr, a director of the
Nanpa Cooperative Creamery, attend
ed the meeting. Mr.. Orr gave i'll a
short and interesting talk his own ex-
periences with the Nampa creamery,
covering a period of two years. Dur
ing that time he has delivered cream
at the Nampa creamery, milking from
9 to IL cows When he started he
was milking nine and ten cows and
his receipts ranged from $40 to- $47
per month. The first month he re-
ceived from the Cooperative cream
cry $l7 90 more than he received from
the private company. He is now milk
ing IL COWS and last month received
from his cream $3.50.
Secretary Orr explained that the
Cooperative creamery takes quarter
of a cent per pound for maintenance
and to create a sinking fund. This
permits the creamery to pay 8 pei
cent. on the money invested. Once
a month a director is sent to Portland
with hogs and the growers realize
from Is to 80 cents per hundred more
for their hogs than they are Offered
at Nampa. Last week MIR. Orr ship

The foregoing telegram was sent
to Governor Haines tuesday by the
Caldwell Commercial Club. The re-
ply of Governor Haines follows.
The telegram was sent to Govern
or Hames because the state board of
education had authorized Dean Car
lysle OF the College of Agriculture
to divert the legislative appropria-
ton for stocking and equipping the
Caldwell Experiment Farm to the
Standpoint station. The action of the
board of education aroused intense
feeling among farmers, business men
and taxpayers generally. In spite of
all that Caldwell has done for the Elk
pertinent Farm at this place the IN
iverSity authorities seem to- try to
cripple the farm whenever opportun-
ity presents itself.
The Legislative, Appropriation.
The last legislature appropriated
$1,000 for a dairy herd and equipment
for the Caldwell Experiment Farm.
This appropriation was made because
the dairy interests of this section OF
the state are much greater and more
important than those of any other
SGCllOH. lie DOlSS NdlCy is lHS
center Of the industry. Dean Car.
lysle and associates, whoever they
may have been, attempted to misap.
propriate this money.
The Experiment Farm Committee
of the Commercial Club held meet
ing Tuesday afternoon. H. H. Har.
land of the state educational board
attended the meeting. After a con
ference with Messrs. J B. Gowen, B

STANDPOINT TRIES TO
STEAL OUR DAIRY
APPROPRIATION

I The citizens OF Canyon coun-
ty protest against the arbitrary
: diversion of the fund appropri-
ated by the last legislature for
the purchase of dairy herd
and the equipment necessary
: for its proper housing, from
this section. Canyon county
1 is the leading dairy county OF
the state and the legislators ap-
parently recognized this fact
when making the appropriation.
The immense dairying territory
tributory to the Caldwell dem
, onstration farm makes it the
ideal location for dairy exper-
iment station. On behalf OF
the taxpayers of Idaho whose
: authorized delegates, in legis-
lature assembled designated the
Caldwell experiment station as
the location for a dairy expert
T ment farm, we ask you to use
your influence in giving the
people of southern Idaho a
hearing before allowing the rul-
Z ing of the state board of educa-
ton made Saturday, to become
effective"
The following reply 10 this
( protest was received from Gov
emor Haines Tuesday evening:
Fully concur with your re-
I quest. Have taken the matter
( up with the state board and ex-
pect results satisfactory to
you"

SAVE BY COOPERATIVE BUYING
N. P. f. D. May Help Northwest Apple
Men to Keep 100000 On Box
Purchases

Based on reports of the 1913 expe-
riences of fruit growers of the Spokane
country, apple producers Of the four
Pacific northwestern states will save
nearly 100000 by purchasing ap-
pie boxes comparatively next year.
Onis Dorman, president Of the Fruit
Growers company, cooperative SELL
ing organization, handling the crop of
the districts surrounding Spokane,
states that his association last season
purchased boxes for 81 cents box,
saving from Q to 21a cents on each,
or about 20 per cent. With good
yield in 1914 the North Pacific Fruit
Distributors, the cooperative market
ing organization which handles 90 per
cent of the product of Washington,
Oregon, Idaho and Montana, expects
to ship about 5000 cars, necessitating
the purchase of about 5000, 900
boxes. II two cents per box is saved
by cooperative buying the growers
will have to pay 100000 less for
boxes than if they purchased individ-
ually.
I'VE do not claim the makers
charged too much for boxes before, !"
states Mr.. Dorman, as under the
methods of bad collections they were
obliged always to figure on long
wait for their pay and in some cases
they were never paid. They have
told US that they prefer selling to a
we'll financed organization, even if the
price is 20 per cent lower than to an
individual.
