DELAYED RESCUE WORK
SUBMARINE IS ELUSIVE
EFFORTS TO RAISE HULK IN HAWAIIAN HAIR
BOR FAILED MISERABLY
ABANDON PLANS FOR THE DAY
Dredger California Had to Let Go After Dragging
Vessel 563 Feet-Dving Bell Will be
Used to Bring it to Surface

HONOLULU, March 3O.-After tug
ging with the submarine F-4 for two
days, the hold of the dredger Californ-
ia broke early today. This afternoon
attempts to raise the submerged YES
sew were abandoned for the day. The
cables chains and tackle available fol
use by the vessels engaged in the
salvage are Inadequate. A halt was
called on the work while Rear Admiral
Moore and the engineers directing the
work held conference.
Before letting go the California
dragged the submarine 563 feet to-
ward shore. The dredge Navajo re-
tanned it's hold and continued to strug-
gle alone with the hulk, although it
was still in more than 40 fathoms OF
water. 1t is expected the diving bell
will be ready for use late this eve
ming.

COUNTY FAIR PROSPECTS BRIGHT

The Latah County Fair Association
is in excellent financial condition, and
will likely open the 1915 session of the
Fair with the grounds free from debt,
according to Chris Hagan who reported
briefly at the Commerce Club luncheon
today on the work of the special COM
mittee that has had the financial af-
fairs of the association in hand lately.
Widespread interest in the Fair is
found in all parts of the County, and
the prospects now indicate that the
coming season will see the best fair
ever given here.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 30.-They
are off in the Pacific Coast league.
The opening gun in the 1915 base
ball season was fired today in three
of the largest cities west of the
Rockies when the Coast league, one of
the larger minor league organizations,
got under way. San Francisco, Los
Angeles and Salt Lake were the cities
where Hot Stove Leagues were dis
banded and the fans came into their
own
Here's the way they lined up: Oak
land at San Francisco; Portland at Los
Angeles; Vernon at Salt Lake. The
usual ceremonies, including brass
bands, parades and speeches, preceded
the games. And then the fans and
fanettes settled down, so far as the
Pacific Coast is concerned, to eight
months of baseball.
The same old brand of predictions
were voiced by the managers of the
several clubs.
Every man on my team is cham
pion,' said Happy" Hogan, manager
of the Vernon Tigers, "and I can't see
how they can keep from anneXing
the pennant."
The five other managers in the
league were to the front with similar
statements, but unbiased experts have
declared the San Francisco club to be
the greatest aggregation of players ev-
er assembled in a minor league. This
team was constructed by Harry VOL
verton, former manager of the New
York Highlanders. Portland and Los
also loom up as contenders.
Several changes have occurred in the
Pacific Coast league since the close of
the 1914 season. Cal Ewing and FRANK
Ish, two of the best-known baseball
men in the country, disposed of their
holdings in the San Francisco club to
Henry Berry, formerly owner of the
Los Angeles club. Berry disposed CT
his interests in the Los Angeles club
to John Powers, son of Alderman Pow
ers of Chicago. After several disas
trous seasons, the Sacramento fran
chise was sold to Salt Lake, one Of
the best baseball cities in the west.
Cliff Blankernship is manager Of the
Mormon team.

SALES DAY IDEA
TAKES WELL HERE
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE WILL
SOON INACCURATE THE SYS-
TEN In MOSCOW
Regarded as Great SOciaIizing Agent
Expected to Promote Community
Welfare

Claiming that a monthly Farmers
Sales Day. here would be great
community asset as a socializine
agent and as a stimulus to the develop
ment of diversified farming, stock
raising and dairying, the Agricultural
Committee of the Chamber Of Com
merce, through it's chairman, M. e.
Lewis, today recommended that the
Chamber take immediate action to get
the plan under way. The report OF
the Committee was adopted, and the
details of the plan will be worked out
Immediately. The third Saturday of
each month has been recommended as
Sales Day.
Speaking of the advantages and
features of the plan, Mr.. Lewis said
in part:
VIII Change Farming Methods
s'It will gradually change the farm
ing methods of the surrounding coun-
try from grain raising to stock rails
ing and dairying, which will make
our community more of monthly in
come producer than yearly one. This
will tend to put our business more
on cash basis than credit one. 1t
will go a great ways toward estab-
fishing Moscow as the live stock cen
ter of the Palouse country, in the
course of time.
Many Advantages Offered
'The advantages offered by the sales
days to person having anything to
sell, from a single article to a COM
plete farmers sale, are many. A sin
gle article of any kind can be put up
for sale, and placed before a large
crowd of buyers, insuring the right
price for the same, as the larger the
crowd the more persons there are who
may want the article. The same is
true if complete sale is to be made.
A sale taking place before a crowd
of 1000 to 1900 people is sure to bring
better prices than one at which but
a tenth of that number are present.
The sales also offer every one a
chance to bring in any surplus arti-
Gle and sell it, thus keeping their
places cleared up of surplus stock
or other articles.
Will Aid Buyers
"For the buyer these sales offer as
great advantages. In the many ar
ticles collected for sale from all over
the country he will no doubt find just
the one he has been looking for in a
horse, or COW or piece of machinery,
which would have taken him week
Or more to look up without the sale.
If the desired article is not found at
the sale, inquiry may enable him to
find some one who has it, and thus
save time.
Probably the greatest advantage to |
both buyer and seller is the social |
eature. The monthly sales are at
ended by nearly all members of the
amily, visiting is done, ideas exchang-
ID, and farming news discussed.
These meetings always tend to bet
er farming methods being adopted,

HOW TO DO 1T

No retail merchant can with equan-
unity look upon the prospect of having
money pour out of his community into
the vaults of a powerful mail-order
concern in Chicago or other eastern
city. 1t is the natural and the neces-
sary desire of every retail merchant to
divert that stream of business into his
own store, to secure from purchasers
the volume of business which the
merchant can not survive having turn
ed to a competitor in a vast mail-order
business elsewhere.
What the retail merchant must do is
to study the situation, analyze the
means by which the mail-order con-
Germs of the east secure trade, and
then determine upon the method by
which he can successfully compete
with his unseen rival, securing to him
self the profits that are rushing abroad.
Every one knows that the mail-order
houses of the middle west which have
made such tremendous inroads on
western retail business present their
wares to prospective patrons in an
attractive and specific way They illus
trate all classes of merchandise which
they have to sell. and they describe
each article in the fullest detail and
in the most striking language. This
oil I,
their wares so as to kindle desire. 1t
is not the price which catches the
reader, ii is the graphic description,
the attractive picture, the definite in
formation about thousands upon thou
sands Of articles. No generalities like,
I'VE sell this, that, or the other,' but
a careful and studied presentation of
the best features of every separate ar
ticIe of merchandise for sale.
This is the mail-order house method.
1t is their only method. They see that
people know what they have and they
create a desire for it.
Having found out what the method
OF the mall-Order house is, the next
step for the retail merchant is to de-
termine just how to compete with that
method. The answer to this problem
was solved long ago by the city mer-
chants. 1t is a well-nown fact that
mail-order houses do not prosper in
the city feature of their business.
They do not make their money i'll

driven out of the immense and lucr-
alive field of city business? By the
system of advertising in daily papers
by town merchants. This is a we'll
established fact. The daily newspa-
per, freely employed, put the mail
order houses out of business in the
cities. When readers can get daily

merchants used the daily papers to do
every day in the year, little at a

order business by using the same
geographically steady, attractive,
definite, specific publicity.
