VALUE or COMPRESSED AIR
In Jets and sprays II Has Wide Ap-
piieation In Factories In the
United States.

A Jet Of water Is capable of cooling
or cleaning, but it's action is limited
to materials which will not be injured
by moisture, and 1t requires provisions
for drainage. Air, on the other hand,
will clean steel with equal facility. A
steam Jet, too, can accomplish many
things by direct action, but who wants
to work around one? Air is obvious

poses, says a writer In Factory. In at
least one machine shop air Jets are
employed on cutting tools, in lieu OF
oil or soda water, to keep both tool
and work cool.

ADDS REQ CAR TO
HIS PRESENT LINE
L. J. Ross Will Handle Very
Popular Car in This
Territory.

L. j. Ross, the dealer in Pierce Ar
row and Hudson motor cars, who has
his salesrooms at 40 South Tenth
street, has added the we'll known and
reliable REQ line of cars and trucks,
and announces that he can make i'm
mediate delivery on either the nve or
seven passenger cars. Mr.. Ross states
that it was only after long delibera-
ton and careful elimination that he
decided on adding this popular car to
his different lines. He felt that it was
necessary to have In stock a five-pas
senger model beside the two high
grade makes he now carries. This he
found in the REQ, which he considers
the most sturdily built car of today.
This line of cars can, at q small cost,
be equipped with the REQ distillate
adapter. which allows the owner to
use cheap distillate instead OF high
priced gasoline, thereby securing dou-
BILE the mileage for The same money.
The two newest models of the REQ
line which Mr.. Ross will carry are REQ
the Fifth and the Reo Six. These cars
have many salient features only few
of which will be mentioned here. One
is the world famous motor which has
been the standard of this line for six
seasons. In it the overhead intake
valve system is used and also the re-
liable REQ fabrication and the equally
dependable cooling system. The ia
nous REQ safety first steering gear
has been retained and the spark and
throttle control levers have been put
on top of the wheel instead of below
as formerly. The Remy electric start
er and lighting system have been re-
tanned but instead of the worm driving
mechanism, the simpler and more fa-
miliar chain has been substituted be-
cause 1t requires practically no atten-
ton from the driver. Then there are
the REQ bodies, the one-man top, and
the rain vision shield, all of which go
to make the REQ one of the popular
cars of the day.

Business Survey In Boise Shows
That There Is No Place for
Pessimist In the City

The pessimist in Boise will have to
take to the tall timber, for his days
are about numbered and the time for
the optimist to take hold of things
has arrived. This statement is made
as the result of business survey by
company, of conditions as they exist
in the capital of the Gem state This
is not an advertisement Mr. Day vol
unteered the information because he
believes IL should be passed on. Meth
er was he anxious to have his name
connected In the dispensing of it,
This survey resulted in So OF the
leading firms in retail lines in Boise
being personally called upon. They
were not asked to boost their business,
but to give out the hard, cold facts
with regar1 to it. As many of the
wholesalers as could be seen were APP
preached in the same manner. The
basis of comparison taken was the first
three months of 1915. The facts es-
tablished were most optimistic in tone.
This is particularly significant be-
cause the Easter business came in
March last year while this year it will
come this month.
Mark the facts established:
or the SO retailers interviewed there
were only five who reported they were
just breaking even in business with
last year.
The other 4s report increase in sales
and more cash. The increase varied
from eight per cent net on up.
A number reported they had gone as
high as SO per cent.
without exception nine of the lead
ing wholesale men called upon reported
large increase in business and the
cash with it.
Real estate dealers called upon say
property is moving more rapidly now
than for the past few years. They are
the indicators of community business.
Notwithstanding that all goods have
gore up in price and are much harder
to get, business has increased.
Here are some of the most common
