Boise had for it's visitor tw o days
the past week one of the prominent
young men of north Idaho, whd is do
ing things. This man is G.. A. Mix OF
Moscow, general manager of the Idaho
National Harvester company Con-
trary to all rules of business and ad-
vice of many big business men, Mr..
Mix had demonstrated that manufac-
turing can be successfully carried on
in small western town, and while but
seven years old the Idaho National
Harvester company now has a pay roll
of $4,000 per month, employs an aver
age of 70 men the entire year and is
turning out an average of $50 harvest
ers which sell at $1,000 each a nd are
being used in Idaho, Montana, Wash
ington, Utah, Nevada and California.
Mr.. Mix is a graduate of the Uni
versity of Idaho. While farming 200
acres of land successfully, he began to
look for new fields to conquer. Know
ing he was in the heart of the great
grain belt. his attention was turned to
the manufacturing of harvesters and
he decided upon a plant at Moscow
He found his road full of stumbling
blocks. He was told he could not COM
pete with the big concerns of the east
because it cost more for labor than in
eastern cities, that the territory was
not large enough and that the ma
chimes turned out by old firms and
known would be bought in pref ference
Mr. Mix, however, proposed to manu-
facture harvester and manufacture
it in Idaho and at Moscow and conse-
quently he organized a small company
and started in business. He found

Comment
During the game we saw about Is ball
players in action and must say that we were
impressed with the showing they made.
We heard some very complimentary re-
marks about the appearance and quality of
the players and our hopes for 1916 are
based on solid foundation.
Considering the weather the pitchers ex
P.'s number in strikeouts amassing no less
than Is during the contest. Both Bl. and
L. were alive to all opportunities in this re-
gard and between them emerged with II
credits.
Carl S. work behind the bat was good
and he also delivered couple of telling
smashes, his three baser being beauty.
Though fleet of foot he was unable to
streatch it into a home run.
Ian. made good record at the keystone
sack for the c. c. S and had a number of
assists and put-outs to his credit.
Mac. played first like a veteran and Lo.
also displayed ability at the initial corner.
Keck's. umpiring left nothing to be de-
sired. His decisions are eminently fair and
rendered in quick and confident manner.
