HELP WOMEN KNIT
FOR BOYS ABROAD
WILLING TO WORK BUT HAVE NO
WOOL FOR GARMENTS BADLY
NEEDED

Women of the Navy Comfort
league of Moscow will be on all cor
ners tomorrow with tags. These tags
are 10 cents each and the money Is
tn be used to buy more yarn to con-
time the knitting.
The necessity for these articles was
made manifest when the first U. S.
vessels arrived in England. Amer
lean soldiers were forced to borrow
from their English brothers these
very articles with which the women
of this land are trying to furnish them.
The government cannot supply these
and the men are at sea and do not
have an opportunity to purchase
warm things for themselves.
So come down town tomorrow with
an extra dime prepared to be very
frivilous and help keep your sailors
and marines warm.

IDAHO
PLEA MADE BY
DIR. {. A. BRYAN
COMMISSIONER OF EDUCATION
ASKS STUDENTS TO HELP IN
GREAT WORK

A prospective thorough unification
of Idaho and the part university stu
dents must play in the accomplish
ment of that task was the theme of an
address delivered by DR.. Enoch A.
BRYAN, state commissioner of educa-
ton, at the second assembly of the
college year, held this morning in the
campus auditorium.
DR.. Bryan touched briefly upon the
salient ramificatiOns of the states re-
sources for which Idaho geography
must be thanked, going on, however,
to remark that just as the states ply
sical features are the basis of its
wealth they also form the basis of the
segregation of it's people.
1.-The centrifugal forces at work
within the state of Idaho,' he said,
may, because of our geography,
prove stronger than the centrific pow
er. but it is my belief that they shall
not
"It is unquestiOnably true that we
will gain immeasurably if we can
work out the complete unification of
this commonwealth, if we can become
one in thought, aspiration and en-
deavor."
The assembly was opened by the
singing of the Battle Hymn of the
Republic and a vocal solo rendered
by Eugene H. Storer Miss Freda Soul
en- playing violin obligato.

ENGLAND PLANS To
CONSCR|PT WEALTH
WILL PAY OFF HALF THE WAR
DEBT BY ONE DRASTIC
MEASURE

LONDON-England is preparing to
literally conscript capital The Brit
ish government has practically decid-
ed to levy direct tax on capital. The
move is probably the most radical fin
ancial innovation since the beginning
of the war Officials admit that by
ordinary taxation they will be unable
to meet the after-war expenses. 1t is
estimated that the total private wealth
of Great Britain is $100,000,00 600.
The government plans to take 10 per
cent of this and in that way wipe out
half the war debt.

We are now, he said, passing through
a revolution against the old verbalistic
styIe OF education and are approach
ing what might be called a natural

iency.

olf the hogs that died around Friend ship? Did they all belong to Esq. Tisdale?
 When asked in the Quorum Court why he had not visited any more in the West end of the county he replied: First, l don't go anywhere that I am not wanted, and second l had to pay for my nights lodging out there." To his first excuse l will say that I invited him back to my place and I know of others that invited him to come back.
 To his second excuse, I guess some one (but I don't know who) thought he was getting a large salary and that he ought to pay his way.
 In conclusion, think it is very plain for thinking people to see that he thinks he has lost fat job and of course he feels sore.

REPLIES TO COUNTY
 AGENT DANIEL

DeRoche, Ark, Rt 1, Nov. 1o.-I have just read the report of MT. w. l.. Daniel, County Agent.
 First, l want to say that may have laboring under mistaken idea for the last twelve months, as l thought that the Levying Court of 1916 made an appropria ton for Farm Demonstrate or, and understood that his duty would be to instruct the farmers of the coun- ty how to grow more corn and more cotton and other farm products on given amount of land than we have been doing, or in other words, to teach the average farmer scientific farming. I understood that MT. ". E. Daniel was employed for this purpose. 1 mo- tice however, that he always signs his name as County Agent, and that might mean something else besides farm Demonstrator. At the last Levine Court there were about twen- ty J. Ps. that voted against making an appropriation for County Farm Demonstrator, or County Agent. Then why does Mr. Daniel jump on Esq. Ketchun. Esa. Tidsdale, Esq Shinn, and myself. I guess that it was be- C. gave our reasons for voting as we did, which reason in brief was just this:
 He showed no interest at all in us county, but twice we don't know any thing about it. I don't know what he tried to do or was asked to do West of DeRoche township, but I offered him a plat of land to plant in cotton along side of my own planting. ! promised to prepare the land, plant the seed and cultivate exactly accord ing to his instructions. I never thought of anything else only for him to visit my place and see that the rlat was cultivated according to his directions. This he absolutely refus- ed to do. He insisted on furnishing me thirty-two varities of cotton seed to plant and test. 1 refused to do this from the fact that I am not rum ming an experiment station.
 He says he did not accept this cot ton demonstration with me because he believed 1 would plant and cultivate to suit myself, and that I wanted the demonstration for an ulterior motive
 "Poor excuse indeed"
 Now l have been in this Township and county nearly all the time for fortv-six years and if I thought that the best citizens of this county had the same opinion of me as he has express ed, would leave here before this ever appeared in print.
 In his report he makes much of what he has done vacinating cholera hogs and building dippino vats for dipping cattle. Now why did he not vacinate cholera hogs in DeRoche Township? He was asked to do so As to the dip- ping vats. it occurs to me that the last legislature had somethingto do with that Honor to whom honor be- longs. Why did he not vacinate some

Chicago packers want the govern,
