CHANGE GAME
LAWS OF IDAHO

Although the state game and fish
laws were revamped by the legisla-
ture, there were no radical changes,
according to Leroy Jones, state game
warden. However, it is going to be
well for Idaho sportsmen to study
the new measure carefully before
shouldering a gun and whistling to
the dog, because open seasons have
been changed.
No change was made in the cost of
resident licenses and they will con-
tinue to sell at 81 each, but the nom
resident bird license was boosted
from 81 to SIS.
The bag limit on grouse was re-
duced from IL to six, on ducks from
"a to 12; on grouse from a to 2; on
snipe from IS to six. In no instance
can the nimrod have more than the
limit number of birds in his posses
sion.
The season on quail has been clos
ed to November /, 1920, and the sea-
son on sage hens will be closed from
August Is, until 1921. The open
season on grouse was cut down 80
days and will run from August Is
to October 81; the Chinese pheasant
season from November / to Novem-
Der 10; the mourning dove season
from August 1 to September 30. The
federal law was adopted in fixing
the open season for migratory birds
and hereafter it is to run from
September 16 to December 81.
Instead of being allowed to shoot
two buck deer, sportsmen may in the
future kill but one of either sex. The
same is true with elk, the bag limit
having been reduced to one, and the
closed season on the female raised. |
The new law provides that persons
killing bag game must tag the animal
shot. The tags are provided sports |
men by the game warden's office
when purchasing licenses. They will |
be numbered to correspond with the |
numbers on the license. 1t is pro-
vided in the new law that guns used |
for the unlawful killing of game can
be confiscated, and another section
provides that aliens keeping shotguns
or rifles must take out licenses. The
license for shotguns will cost them |
$3.50; for rifles, $25.
The limit on smoked or sailed fish |
has been raised from 10 to 20 pounds, |
while the limit for fish with their
heads off has been fixed at fifteen
mounds

The OctOpus

In the big city, there looms forth
the mammoth mail order house.
Cold in it's relationship with en-
ployees, ferreting into the highways
and byways with its cancerous lead
ers-a mere machine.
It's an octopus.
1t saps a hundred thousand small
communities of their life blood-their
money.
1t contributes nothing.
1t has thrived because it's whole
workings are based upon the princi-
pie of trading upon established stan
dards.
1t builds up nothing.
1t demands all-offers the least
possible in return.
One of the greatest, most influ-
encial and most powerful home mag
azines in the country has recently re-
fused to accept any more mail order
advertising.
1t saw the dangers that are being
forged.
1t saw the ruin that many commu-
mites are bringing down upon them
selves by patronizing mail order
Goods sold by small town mer-
chants are standardized advertised
goods-the pick of those articles the
manufacturers produce.
Those that are a little off-per-
haps few broken threads, a slight
miscut, an off color, a minor flaw
not quite up to standard, are dumped.
Much of such merchandise finds
its way into mail order hands. And
the mail order house asks that we
compare it with the standard goods.
Lack of technical information
things for which to watch out, pre-
vents us from recognizing the diff
ference between such merchandise
and the standardized advertised
kind.
This one advantage has placed the
mail order house in our eyes as
enefactor-extracted good coin of
the realm from us.
If there were some way to awake
folks to the real realization of con-
ditions-awake them throughout the
width and breadth of the land, the
mail order house wouldn't be able
to stand up sixty days.
There would be no octopus to sap
small communities of their lifeblood
their money.
The small communities would enter
into an era of osperity-continu-
Gus, far-reaching and lasting pros
perity, the like of which they never
dreamed.
Let us, as one community resign
our position as a feeder of the oc-
topus. Let us develop-look to our
own interests for change
Money we have already sent away
from Bonners Ferry won't come
back; we can't recover it; so there
is no use worrying about it.
But let no more leave Boomers
Ferry.
To send more dollars away from
Boomers Ferry now that the facts
are being disseminated, is to play
traitor to Bonners Ferry, to the best
interests of the citizens of Bonners
Ferry and to the interests of the
sons and daughters of the citizens
of Boomers Ferry.
Why not subscribe enough to erect
a big bulletin board in the center
of the town with the ever-constant
reminder in mammoth letters there
on-"Buy 1t in the Home Town"
Got Citizenship Papers.
John Bosovich, subject of the late
Franz Josef, applied recently at
Hammond, Ind, for citizenship pa
pers. He could barely speak Eng
lish The clerk of the court put
these questions and got these an
swers:
"Who is president of the United
States ?"
"Meester Wilson"
"Who makes the laws?"
"De kungress."
"Who elects the PRESIDENT"
Bosovich never batted an eye as

BYRON G. HARLAN (Tenor)
Byron G.. Harlan, the popular
tenor and comedian, rs one of the
most versatile of the company of
entertainers. and really seems at
home in almost any kind of work he
essays. Mr.. Harlan not only sings
popular ballads in a remarkably
pleasant tenor voice, but is one of
the eleverest and most amusing of
comedians, whether his impersona-
ton be that of typical Yankee, a
darky wench or an end man in a
minstrel show.
Besides this graet array of talent
there will be Vess Ossman, the fam
Gus banjo king, whose several num-
bers will add delight to the fine
chosen program. Then there is the
famous pianist-composer Mr.. Theo-
dore Morse who will accompany the
singers. Mr.. Morse will also play O
medley of his most popular compo-
sitions among which are the famous
songs, Mother" "qood-By Sweet
heart, Good-By," Dear Old Girl .
and others. The opportunity offer
ed Harrisburg music lovers to hear
these great phonograph artists in
person is one rarely afforded, end
music lovers will be wise to make an
early reservation for this concert.

BILLY MURRAY .(Comedian)
Billy Murray is one of the most
successful of all American singers
of humorous songs, ana probably en-
tertains through his records larger
audience than any other singer who
has ever lived. His Irish songs, with
just a touch Of quaint brogue; the
rapid-fire type of comic songs with
no breathing places (Billy never
seems to take breath); the topical
song, which presents the foIlies Of
the time in humorous fashion; popu-
lar sentimental songs; dialect spe-
cialties-no matter what the line of
work he undertakes it is sure to be
cleVerly done. His enunciation rs
simply wonderful; there is never any
doubt as to a single syllable when
Billy Murray sings it.

Schulte Accepted His Hard Luck Without
 Offering Any Alibis

The manner in which Frank Schulte accepted the breaks of the game, and they have come hard for him, is les son for some of the many alibi types of ball players, writes Charles J. Doyle in the Pittsburgh Gazette-Times.
 If Schulte wanted to be small like many of the rest he could have found some lame excuse for an unfavorable remark But wildfre is too broad for anything of that nature. Schulte, dur ing the past year, had lost his mother. his Southern home was burned to the ground. Mrs. Schulte has been ser fously i'll and Frank himself is just getting over a. broken rib. Despite these turns of fate the diamnd celeb rity has a cheerful tone in his opinion of everybody.
 As far as baseball ability is concern ed the fence-breaker is capable of stinging his bat as effectively as ever. He was just getting into his stride when he met with his rib injury. but ought to be in top form again in . week or so. The former Cub. may fit well into the plans of Pat Moran, who was on the same team with Schulte long enough to know the value of his long drives.

PROTEST REJECTION
 OF UNION MATTERS


 The Farmer has received a protest from Capt. E. c. Ginty, formerly head of the Danbury police force, that two Danbury union matters have been dis charged from a local factory, accord ing to their story, because they were union matters. Other men, it was said, had been refused here and told to go back to Danbury to work as the factories are open in Danbury and want matters.
 A manufacturer who investigated this condition in Bridgeport, declared today that it is the policy of many local factories to avoid taking men who give any indication of possible return to their old jobs. It was point ed out that it costs from $25 to $40 to 'break in'' a new man. who If he leaves in a short time. causes an economic loss.
