Advice Plentiful

On every hand we see advice hand
ed out as to how to economize and
conserve the food products. 1t has
fell to some editor to pen the follow
inng regarding this advice which
about hits the spot:
ut would seem that In these days
OF economy and conservation, the
time is about ripe to begin conserv-
ing on some of the advice handed
out so freely by wise-acres who know
nothing of the subject on which they
advise. Women who have practiced
real economy all their lives Are get
ting tired of being advised on econ
omy and idustry by some social lead
er whose principal exertion consists
In getting ready for dinner. Farm
ers who know what economy really
means, get tired of taking advice
from some fellow who sits In a
swivel chair with his feet on a pol
ished oak desk and a ten cent cigar
in his teeth Nine times out of ten
the folks at whom economy advice is
aimed know more about the real ar
ticle than their advisor"

What the Fighters Get

A bill introduced in congress to
pay bonus of $50 a month to the
American soldiers sent to Europe
met opposition on the ground that an
American soldier didn't have to be
paid to make him patriotic. Uncle
Sam shows up as a generous provid-
er as compared with some of the
other nations. The Austrian soldier
gets the munificient salary of 81 cents
month. France phys her poilus ST.
Is for the same period of service,
while the German in the trenches re-
ceives 1913 and the Italian s2.67.
There is wide range of payment be-
tween Great Britain and her colonies.
The English Tommy is paid $3.50 a
side with the Canadian at s33, the
New Zealander at s36.50 and the
Australian at $3.50, the highest paid
man of them all. The Russian foots
the list at 80 cents a month for ac-
tual war service. All of these figures
are for the lowest grades of fight
ing men, with the amounts rendered
in the equivalent of American cur
rency- The lowest pay of an Ameri-
can soldier is $50 a month at home,
which increases to s33 a month in
foreign duty. 1t is hardly to be be-
|'lieved that putting a premium on pat
riotism would ever please the men
most concerned.

$500 Per Year
A Good Days Work
For some time there has bee

For some time there has been more
or less literature of an incendiary
nature floating around this section,
evidently the work of some of the
|. w. w. members. Members of our
home guard have been investigating
this matter to some extent and last
Sunday they succeeded in running
down the individual who it is thought
is responsible as he was caught in
the act of distributing literature of
this nature, and more was found on
his person. The man arrested is a
Snake River Slim. He was taken in
to custody by Marshal Hineman, and
Sheriff Wheeler was notified. Later
in the day two other characters
known as Alabama and Tennessee.
were heard discussing the matter and
they were also taken into custody and
taken to Shoshone by Sheriff Wheel
er.
AS to Snake River Slim, his case
has been turned over to the Federal
authorities for investigation. At a
hearing held in Shoshone Tuesday,
the man known as Alabama, confess
ed to the charge of bootlegging, after
witnesses had exposed the whole af-
fair an6 he will accordingly be held
to the district court to answer to this
| charge.
1t was good days work for our
guards, as it will relieve the town of
these characters for the present at
least, and it is not likely that they
will soon reurn. There are, however,
still some suspicious characters that
are being closely watched, and if they
will take tip they will absent them
selves from the town without delay.
Our patriotic citizens have become
tired listening to this ridicule of the
government and they propose to see
that it is stopped.

What's the Matter?

During the past summer the mer-
chants along Main street have suffer-
ed untold inconveniences due to the
deplorable condition of our Main
street, the dust being almost unbear-
able during some of the wind storms
Our Village board have paid no at
tention to the street during the past
season, and when any complaint was
made regarding the street by any pro-
perty owners along the street they
were given to understand that steps
would be taken toward the paving of
the street this fall. Up to the pres
ent time, however, no steps have been
taken in that direction. and some of
the property owners are naturally
asking. what is the matter.
We do not believe there is a town
in Idaho that can boast of a more
deplorable Main street than can Je-
rome. And about the only criticism
the town receives is regarding its
streets. There seems to be some dis
position on the part of principal pro-
perty owner along the street that the
same should be paved, and if the Viii
lage board is a little uncertain in
the matter, we venture to suggest
that if they will have the town at
torney prepare the property petition
for the paving of the street it will
receive the signatures of large ma
joriy cf the property owners. along
, the street. We hope to see some ag-
itation among the owners looking to
this end that the work may be done
this fall and coming winter, and that
we may be relieved of the deplorable
condition experienced last summer

Use of Explosives VIII Be Curbed

That the government of the Unit
ed States plans to generally curb the
use of high explosives In the future in
order that the powder may be con-
served for the use Of the army and
navy in the present war, is evident
from the notice received by G. A.

reau OF mines, and transmitted to the
former to the Capital News for publ
cation. 1t is to the effect that agents
handling explosives are soon to be H.

Farmers Discuss Hay Question

In response to the call of the Farm
Bureau the farmers of the Jerome
district met in the city hall last Sat
urday evening for the purpose of dis
cussing the conditions, which at pres
ent is influencing the market price of
of this seasons crop so far sold has
been at the price, of $500 per ton
and that now the buyers are endeav-
oring to make purchases at $1,000
to $1,000 per ton, with the farmers
holding fast for $500 County Ag-
ent Avery read a telegram just re-
oeived from Harvey Alfred, State
Farm market director, stating that he
could find a market for all the sur
plus hay at $500 per ton F. o. B.,
cars, Jerome. and that in few days
he felt sure he could arrange a mar
ket that would pay $4,000 per ton
F. o. B. cars, Jerome.
1t appears that in view of the scar.
city of hay in most all other parts OF
the country, together with the high
price of wool and sheep, there should
be no reason why the farmers here
should not receive at least their SIS
per ton in the stack.
The farmers will meet again mex
Saturday evening. In the meantime
the Farm Bureau will endeavor
through its local committee men, tC
learn the amount OF hay in this dis
trict yet unsold and the possibility
of getting cars and hay presses suf
fcient to take care of the surplus.

for $4,000 for the crop, which also

THE Y. M. G. A. DRIVE
Money Needed to Garry on the Work
of This Organization During
the War.

This is the week of the Y. M. c. A.
drive throughout the nation in an
effort to raise $35,00O,O00 for the
use this organization in not only
caring for our own boys. but looking
after the prisoners of war on foreign
soil
Since the war started millions and
billions have been talked with such
looseness that few people realize what
the amounts really comprise, and this
is best illustrated by statement of
Mark Bartholomew, Y. M. C. A. secre-
tary who has spent two years among
the prisoners of war in Russia.
"If the six million prisoners of
war which the Y. M. C. A. war work
seeks to reach should walk down the
main street Of a CITY," said Mr.. Bar
tholmew. "the procession would take
more than a month to pass a given
point.
"These men are the most lonesome
In the world. Some of them have
been interned for over two years.
They have nothing to divert their
minds. no comforts. nothing to read
except what the Y. M. c. A. work
ers can give them These men need
attention. They need the help of the
Y. M. C. A.. the friendly spirit of
the association. They are homesick
disheartened and discouraged.
"The sum of $1,000, 100000 has
been budgeted for work among the
prisoners of war in the $35, 100000
drive which the Y M. c. A. is max
ing at this time. This would carry
a world of comfort to these men who
are shut of from the world. Why
there are men who have lost hope
men who do not leave their couches
except for their meals. These mer
are bordering on insanity. They
must be given something to do, some
thing to occupy their minds.
1.-The Y. M. c. A. overseas is the
only organization allowed among the
prisoners. The people of this coun-
try must make 1t possible to save
these men. This vast sum OF money
must be raised. This is a condition
that no words Of mine could possibl!
describe. could not picture to yol
the utter heIplessness and hopeless
ness Of these prisoners. We mus
reach them. 1t is our duty as Chris
tians. No one has the right to re
fuse to answer their appeal"
