IDAHO'S FAMOUS GARDEN
SPOT

(From U. S. Reclamation Service)
The richest agricultural section of
Idaho lies in the valley of Boise River
in the southwestern part of the state.
Herein is located the great Boise
Government irrigation project, en-
bracing 243,0O0 acres of exceptionally
fertile land.
With an expenditure of nearly $15,-
100000 the Reclamation Service has
constructed one OF the greatest irri-
CATION systems of the world. including
the spectacular Arrowrock dam $50
feet high. Hundreds of miles of
canals have been laid out through
the valley, two enormous reservoirs
control the flood discharge, and very
prosperous community of 1000 farm
families are now occupying the irri-
gated farms.
The State of Idaho owns approxi-
mately $4,000 acres of land under the
system, which it has agreed to sub
divide and sell at public auction. The
State Land Commissioner at Boise is
making strong bid for settlers in an
announcement recently issued of a
public sale of nearly 500 farms on Feb
ruary rs. Under the terms of sale
purchasers will have 40 years in which
to pay, with interest at per cent
These farms include some of the
choicest lands in the valley, located
in the midst of a we'll settled agricul-
tural community Interurban trolley
systems connect the farming districts
with the numerous cities and towns
excellent schools have been establish
ed, and the pioneering stage is largely
over

THE EIGHT-HOUR DAY LAW
Bv Marcus Day

Uragay has recently passed an eight
hour law which is very comprehensive
in scope and will practically change
the whole labor situation inside its
borders.
Why not the United States alsos
Simply because the forces who want
it are not as yet perfectly organized
in their demand. But it is not more
than. another ten years off at the out
side and maybe before.
If the railroad men gain their point
in their coming contest there will be
spontaneous demand by labor gen
era1lv which has not come under eight
hour regulations already. The Ma
tional Government already has adopt
ed it and with both the National Gov
eminent and the railroads under eight
hour provisions it cannot be long UNI
I'll mines. factories and what-not are
compelled to comply by the demands
of their employees. The logical way
TO settle the matter would be for the
National Government to sweep IT IN
to being at one stroke and dispense
with the unnecessary strife and the
futile struggle of the opposition to
see modern conditions in the light OF
modern evolution i'll regard to labor,
Labor is going to have the eight-hour
day even if it has to fight thru the use
of the strike. This striking is ex-
pensive to both labor, capital and the
country. Labor has the powere to
make this fight for the eight-hour day
before Congress with such strength
that it will gain point. Congress
wants the organized labor vote and
they should be only able to get it or
condition that they give the eight
hour day the support of their scrveict
in Congress.
1t is business proposition for labor
to demand the eight-hour day but it i:
not demand that conflicts with th'
best interests of the country either
rural or city. The majority will gar
by it. 1t will practically absorb thu
remaining surplus on the labor mar
kct and increase wages, give the la
boring class more time for recreation
and education, increase the efficiency
Of skilled labor and be an all arount
benefit to the country morally.
This coming spring is the time TO
labor to strike out boldly and demanC
action by Congress because an cleo
ton year is "cowardly year" polite
ally and demand now can be bette
gained than after an election whel
t is easier to disregard labor becaus
there is no fear of the labor vot
keeping the anti-labor politician ava,
from the pie-counter.

LANGUAGE BARRIERS
BREAKING DOWN

The diversity Of languages is one OF
the most remarkable things In the
world-an effectual barrier to prevent
mankind from combining for the ac-
complishment of their own purposes,
selfish or sinful. 1t has delayed the
great Day Of Wrath. Now the Ian
guage barriers are breaking down, and
we find the tendency of humanity to
re-unite. Unions and Trusts are being
built by the Rich and Poor-each for
self-pr0tection. Had these barriers
been removed two thousand years ago.
similar results would have come too
soon, according to the Divine purpose
