Boche had an ugly look as if he meant
mischief, but it didn't disturb the SER

his razor and picked up his rifle and

PURE FOOD AND MARKET PAGE
BUY OF HOME MERCHANT

Why should you buy at home? Be
cause it is cheaper in the long run
and good business generally. IL the
first place, article by article and item
by item you can buy more chcaply
quality considered, at home than you
can at the mail order house. Inves-
tigate this and you will see that our
statement is true. 1t is not true in
every case, for the mail order house
put low prices on some things in or
der to get customers. They pretend
to cut them on all. They publish
prices in catalogues and the readers
of these publications see an article
that appeals to them and they get the
false impression, which is not often
definitely stated, that this article can
not be secured at home, or that if it
can it will cost more than it would
from the local merchant.
Let us assume that on the average
the price is the same and the advan-
tage of buying at home from every
point of view is overwhelming. In
the first place, you get what you
want at once which you do not from
the mail order house. Now the defer
ring of qualification is the legitimate
cause of interest. If you have to wait
for what you want until somebody
sends it from a distance, you are en-
titled to interest for the period you
have to wait. Besides. you do not
see what you are getting when you
buy True, you can return an article
which you need at once and get an
other, and if that is not satisfactory,
s,1 1.,fx
cepting, but speaking generally you
do not do this. Most OF the time you
accept the article even if it is not
quite satisfactory and if you do not
like it very well, because of the time
and trouble involved in returning it
to the house. You pay as much or
more, you have to wait and you get
less satisfactory service.
These defects are vital Regardless
of the "build-the- hOme-market" argu-
ment, they are of paramount impor-
lance. The difference in value of one
business block over another only 300
feet away is that the former is located
300 feet closer to the centre of bust
ness, so that people do not have to
lose the time involved in walking 100
yards. And their perceptions are
sound Time is money The advan-
tage of getting what you want. when
you want it and where you want it
without inconvenience and without de-
lay is valuable in definite sums of
money, and those who neglect this
fact do not succeed in business
With the familiar argument that
you should patronize home merchants
and build up your home community is
too familiar and too unanswerable to
need elaboration, but eliminating this
from consideration, there is every rea-
son why it is good business from a
narrow. and purely selfish point of
view to buy at home.

Bean Profits Not
Fixed by Uncle Sam
Reply TO Farm Bureau Food Admin
istratOr Sets UnfOunded Runner AZ
Rest

Authoritative denial of the report
that the United States had set a price
on beans was contained in the fol-
lowing letter received by Secretary
w. F Edwards of the Twin Falls
county farm bureau:
w f. Edwards, Esq.
Twin Falls. Idaho.
Dear Sir
Referring to your favor of October
Goth, we have tried to give publicity
through trade journals as well as daily
press, to the effect that the food adj
ministration has fixed no prices what
ever on beans. The actual require
ments of the army and the navy were
recently purchased by the quartermas-
ter general of the army and paymaster
general of the navy. They consulted
the federal trade ommission regarding
their costs and they also asked the
opinion of the food administration re-
garding markets. The federal trade
commission reported that dealers
were holding considerable quantities
of beans, which they have contracted
early from growers at prices ranging
from 12c to &c This requisition of
specific lots was made almost entire
ly from dealers of that kind
The food administration has no au-
thority to fix prices on beans and does
not contemplate doing so, so far as
growers are concerned. We are un-
dertaking to see that dealers do not
exact unreasonable profits or specu-
late.
Very truly yours,
Z. S. FOOD ADMINISTRATION.

Harvard Wins
From Dean in
Opening Game

FRANKLIN. Mass, Oct. 6.-This
afternoon the Harvard football play
ers, including only enc old varsity
man, Captain Bill Snow, played their
first game of their "informa" season,
beating the Dean Academy eleven, p
TO O. Four touchdowns were scored,
one in each Of the short periods Of
play.
Harvard was mucn the heavier team
and showed a good punch in the first
hnlf when two touchdowns were made
mainly on line plays. Early in the
match Dean held the Crimson for
downs on its own 1-yard line, but
foolishly tried to rush the ball out and
after being stopped Tor downs Harvard
pushed over easily for score. Rob
Hoffman. one Of the Harvard substitute
backs, made the prettiest play Of the
game, an s5-yard run from "a kickoff
and through the midst Of the Dean
team. He was called back on account

Great Plays Throttled
Attacks of McGraW'S Men

singles and a double, calling 1t day
with the bloated average Of $50.
The Giant attack was off in more
WAYS than one. Il was not only sup
pressed by Cicotte and his alert de-
fence, but grew a number of weeds on
its own account. In the second inning
Holke, who had singled, was nippel at
first "a he lotered in trance Then.
in the eighth, when Kauf arrived on
Weaver's wild throw, the impetuous
Benny was trapped and surrounded 20
fee, from first, killing the last Giant
chance 70 produce a run.
Bad Slips Helped Sox
These two slips of Benny's, both upon
offence and defence, politely assisted
the Sox out of two impending holes.
One fostered a Chicago attack and the
other put deadly crimp in a New York
rally. All in all, it was not what you
might label an suspicious world series
debut for the ex-Fed marvel, but other
days remain, and Benny yet hopes TO
crash through with something for the
cause.
The White Sox and their countless
supporters are jubilant now for a dou-
Bile reason. They not only have the
Jump game vital advantage FIVE
times out of six-but they have found
that Cicotte could stop the Giants even
when he was a trfe off in the earlier
stages They believe now that the
American League veteran can win three
games IL il comes 10 a showdown, and
that Faber, Russell or Williams can add
the other.
Much Depends on Schupp
But in the interim there is Ferdi-
nand Stubblefeld Schupp, the star
young left-hander. in the way. II will
be hard enough for Schupp TO surpass
Sallee's gallant effort, but with Cicotte
out OF the frame until Tuesday. Giant
hackers and camp followers believe
that the Louisville lef.-hander can
overpower any other man Rowland has
to offer.
Knowing that to leave for New York
Sunday night without victory and
with CicOtte waiting for the Tuesday
meeting means almost certain defeat,
McGrsw and his club will use up all
reserves and ammunition around in the
Sunday battle. They met a harder.
faster club to-day than they have ever
met before. and they know now what
they are up against.
If the stuff that Sallee fred wasn't
enough TO win with. the only answer is
10 come through with stronger at
tack, and thereby obtain a few more
precious tallies. Why not, after seeing
it tested against them so many years,
adopt the Frank Baker theory, as
Fclsch did day?
IN the meanwhile Rowland is waiting
with Russell and Faber to continue the
programme which Cicotte opened. Both
