GREAT BRITISH SMASH
London.-With bomb and bayonet,

Owing to effectiveness Of curtain

S. FOR THANKSGIVING MEAL
FOOD PROBE MONDAY
With the cost of a Thanksgiving
dinner for six people placed at So,
Federal Judge Carpenter ordered a
grand jury investigation of the food
situation to begin Monday. Charges
that Chicago commission men have
cornered produce and forced prices
up will be probed.
In the Thanksgiving meal the
highest price falls on the turkey,
which is palced at a higher mark this
season than in former years. GroceTs
gave an estimate at what the meal
can be prepared for. A comparison
with last year is made.

all of the county commissioners with
whom he has conferred during his trip
expressed themselves as being vitally
interested in good roads for Idaho and
in favor of the most liberal appropria-
tion for that purpose.
Under the federal post roads law
Idaho will get about $1sO,O00 from the
national government for highway con
struction during the fiscal years Of
1917 and 1918. During the same period
the State will receive $4,000 from tht

INCREASE IN SUGAR
PRODUCTION

According to report just issued by
the department Of agriculture of the
United States, the production of sugar
in the United States during the current
campaign exceeded that of 1915 by
more than $4,000 tons.
The report shows that the price paid
for sugar beets during the current year
has averaged $6.17 a ton, as against
1857 last year. The total production
of sugar this season is estimated at
91S,000 short TONS The area harvested
amounted to 6sO,oOO acres and the
amount of beets to 6,671,O00 short
tons.
1t is declared by the report that this
is the largest acreage and tonnage ever
harvested in the United States. Seven
ty-four factories are operating in the
country now, as against sixty seven a
year ago.

posed increase in these rates is made
ule Of grazing rates, while if the pro-
this amount will be doubled.
Under the provisions Of the law it is
necessary for the state to contribute an
equal amount, and those interested in
the good roads movement are doing
everything possible to to encourage
the legislature to appropriate sufi-
cient amount to entitle it to the maxi
mum amount from the federal govern

PARENTS SHOULD USE
THE OPPORTUNITY

The days are rapidly shortening and
the long winter evenings will soon be
evenings that are a great blessing to
home life. In the summer time of
lengthy days and genial sunshine out
door sport and outdoor life are the rule.
To some extent that may make for the
loosening Of home ties and less at
tachment to the house.
But in the winter with its cold. snow
and stormy winds and fewer hours of
sunlight the shelter of the roof and
the warmth Of the fire are more ap-
preciated. Then is the golden oppor.
tunity for the parents TO make home
especially attractive to the children.
Wise are the parents who win be
companionable with their children,
provide suitable amusements and
wholesome, cheerful reading, and who
will encourage their children to invite
to spend the evening other young peo-
pie Of good life and CHEEKY mind. But
no parent can do this who night after
night leave the home to spend late
hours in other places. Such action
and neglect Of children is enough to
ruin home life anywhere.

That we may reap the harvest meath
