EASTERN IDAHO
YARDS BOUGHT
Boise Payette Lumber Com
pany Adds to It's Exten-
sive Holdings and Con-
trolls Long Chain.

G. A. Barton, general manager for
the Boise Payette Lumber company,
corroborates the announcement that
company has purchased the IS yards
of the Idaho Lumber company located
in as many cities and towns in the
eastern part of the state. 1t was re-
ported the deal involved the transfer
of $1.0O0,000 but when this report was
called to the attention of Mr.. Barton
he stated that no such a large sum
was paid. No information would he
given out as to the amount transferred
for the purchase of the eastern Idaho
yards.
The Boise-Payette Lumber company,
since it's reorganization, has been
establishing or purchasing local lum-
Der yards in all parts of southern Idaho
through which to handle the products
of it's large mill north of this city and
to also care for part of the product that
will be turned out of the big mill rap
idly nearing completion at Emmett. It
is now in control of a chain of yards
across the southern part of the state.
BY the deal closed for the Idaho Lum-
Der company yards, the chain is eX-'
tended through the eastern part of
the state.
BOISE BECOMES CENTER.
While officers of the company re-
fused to go into details regarding the
business transaction in acquiring of
these yards and the installation Of
other ones, it is pointed out that
through the rapid completion of the
distributing yards Boise is becoming
the center Of big bushes senterprise
for the central office of the company
is located here and from the Boise Of
flee practically all of the business of
the Boise-Payette Lumber company is
handled.
The product Of the mill is directed
out OF Boise to the retailing yards from
which it reaches the consumer almost
direct from the mills. This, it is I'M
derstood, is the intent of the COM
pany directors and the result is said to
have been rapid increase in the con-
sumption of an Idaho product.
The Barberton mill is temporarily
closed down now owing to the ice jam
in the pond which hampers handling
of the millions Of feet of logs In the
water. f. II. Andrew has resigned rs
mill superintendent and Peter Baud
way has been appointed to that posi-
ton. Logging operations are actively
in progress in the timber.

GRAY and Taggart

Constituents of Finly Gray annually have re-
ceved packages of free seed, distributed by the
government and paid for by the people. Some OF
the constituents have been able to raise some
pretty fair sized vegetables from these seeds but
most of them regretted the economy that kept
them from buying good seeds at the grocery
store. Gray has been fervent apostle of free
seed distribution.
Senator Taggart cannot see how free seeds
are necessary to keep his party in power or why
their distribution will influence Sixth district
voters at the coming election, so he let out a
broadside the other day that must have been ex-
ceedingly unpleasant to Mr. Gray.
Senator Taggart said: with regard to the
matter of seeds and their free distribution by the
government, it will be observed that about one
half the total expenditure of S252540 carried in
this item last year was actually expended in the
purchase of seeds, and all of the remainder,
S124,621.24 went into salaries, travel expenses,
labor, freight express and so forth.
'The people have an idea that all these seeds
are new and rare seeds, grown by the government
upon its experiment stations but the truth is
that all the seeds are bought in the open market
under competitive bids. But every time the gov
eminent actually spends one dollar for seeds it
expends corresponding dollar in expenses and
charges for labor, freight, drayage, salaries,
travelling expenses and so forth, before the seeds
reach the ultimate consumer It is useless ex-
penditure of money, and does not give the people
a corresponding benefit in return
Every voter will agree with Mr. Taggart The
seeds that distributed possess no peculiar vir-
tue that will make them mature into better veg
etables than can be raised from a nickel package
of seeds purchased at the nearest corner grocery
store. The American people are not so poor that
they need the gift of few packages of seed sent
in the form of cheap patronage by congressman
who hopes thereby to retain the good will of his
constituency.

Men of Military Age

The Bureau of the Census estimates that In
diana has 596682 men Of military age within its
confines This estimate is based on ten per
cent increase in population since the census OF
1910 and includes men between the ages of eight
cen and forty-five years. 1t places the total for
the north at 13,O94,615; for the south at
6,006 1885, for the west at 1,970,322. The grand
total is 21,O71 ,076. During the Civil War when
the population was less than one-fourth as great,
the total number of men serving in the Federal
armies was about 100000.
Of the 21,OO0,000 men of military age, such a
small percentage has received military training
that it is a negligible factor to consider as pre-
paredness argument. Had one-fourth this num-
Der received training in military service, the
United States might feel somewhat secure in the
face of threatened invasion by foreign foe.
The 2l,000,0OO today represent only so many men
who would be useless for two years in case of war
for it would take that long to whip small per-
centage of this total into shape for real service
The experience of England proves the point Two

last week. This victory will not make not mean that England is beaten. But it is a token of our future, wherein Germany will win for herself and also for smaller peoples, full equality of rights and lasting freedom of sea routes now closed by England's sole domination"
 Speaking of German unity and of the nations desire to be at peace, the chancellor said earlier in his ad- dress:
 'sWe did what we could to pave the way to peace but our enemies repell ed us with scorn. Consequently, all further talk of peace initiated by us becomes futile and evil Some states men in England and elsewhere have made attempts to feel the pulse of our people and have tried to console them selves into the belief that our striking force was near the breaking point. These gentlemen are indulging in strange notions. There is no external influence that can shake unity even in the slightest degree. We have had our differences of opinion on such matters as the U-boat ques- tion and the question of our relations with America but I declare emphati- calIy that each side in these contro- versies had respected the convictions of the other and that we have remain ed always one on the great national question:

OUT ALL NIGHT. ]. JURY DISACREES IN CIVIL HEARING
Wase Unique in History of Local City Court is Dis cussed By Lawyers.

Tradition has been broken in the city court where in suit over posses lsion of the old Borough hall in Kos suth street a civil jury last week for the first time within the recollection of the judiciary here jury has been the1d out over night to return a dis agreement in summary process.
 The case was that of Owen V. Sut- ton against the East End Athletic club p7vhfch by a recent change of name is now known as the Borough c1ub.'
 Eviction from the premises was sought and dispossess notice had been served.
 On Friday last the case came to striaI before Justice of the Peace Clar- ence Hall and a jury of six Attor- neys CuIlinAn & CulEnan and Andrew
 Gardella appeared for the plaintiff
 with FaIIon & Greenstein for defense It was argued that the club, which for nine years has occupied the his toric structure that was once the cen ter of activities in East Bridgeport and later a fire house, had a parole lease from April 1916 to April 1917- The jury remained out until late Fri day when it was excused until Mon day morning. After several hours de- kliberation Monday they disagreed- The case will have to be tried again kthough it is likely that more Hhga- edon will result from the fact that restaurant keeper who alleges the building was leased to him has been unable to take occupancy. The club will remain in the premises until the base is settled in court.
