THE FEDERAL CORRUPT
PRACTICES ACT

- PURRED to action by
S abuses that came to
light during the presi-
Dental campaign the United
States senate is busy with a
corrupt practices act which If
passed will do considerable to
improve conditions. The act
as proposed will limit the size
of campaign funds, will pro-
hibit any corporation from do
mating to a presidential cam
paign fund, prohibit election
betting and the publication of
election bets, and (probably
most important of all) require
the publication of campaign
contributors names 10 days in
the advance of a presidential
election.
Such a law will not accom-
plish everything that will be
hoped for. There will be ways
of circumventing the law, yet
good will result from it never
theless. 1t will tend to hold
down the size of national cam
paign funds and bring the fl
nancial aspect of a campaign
into the open. The best fea-
ture of the proposed law is the
provision for the publication
of the contributors names 10
days in advance of the election
Through this proceeding peo-
pie will be able to learn in a
greater measure than in the
past the exact forces behind
the different candidates, there
by forming a more intelligent
view as to the merits of the
candidates.

bake beyond his needs.
Cut the loaf on the table, and
only as required.
Use stale bread for cooking,
toast, etc. Crumbs and crushed
dry leftover bread may be used
for thickening gravies and soups
instead Of flour.
Cut down consumption of bread
by eating more vegetables, and
confine your selection to products
grown locally, so as to lessen
transportation requirements.
The reasons WHY wheat must be
saved, above all else, are, briefly,
these:
Our own crop is short, being some
SO, 900, 600 bushels below the harvest
of last year and $50, 900, 900 below the
average for the last five years. Here
tofore we nave beer able to consider
our own needs first and those of 9TH
ly what we could spare comfortably.
Today, however, it Is absolutely es-
sential to our strength in the var on
Germany that England, France, Bel
GUM and Italy have sufficient food to
keep going. For two years their crops
have been short. Farm labor has
been serving in the trenches and mu-
nitions factories, consuming but not
producing food.
America alone is in position to sup
ply anything like the volume Of food
they must have If they are to keep on
fighting.
This food must, largely, take the
form of wheat, because wheat and
wheat flour can best be transported
abroad without deterioration: because
will give more food value per
ton of shipping; because these coun-
tries produce a greater proportion of
other f~oodstuffs than of wheat, in
which they thus find their greatest
shortage.
Also because the fuel supply in
france and Italy is acute, it is neces-
sary to send foods that can be cooked
in quantities at central points, thus
eliminating the need for home ovens.
Wheat meets this need.
Thus the prime problem narrows
down to wheat, wheat and more
wheat. Even with the extreme econo-
my, we will not be able to give our
allies more than so to Is per cent of
their normal wheat supply.
But if even the equivalent of one

NINE INTERESTS SHOULD UNITE
IN SECURING STATION AT
MOSCOW

Mining interests represented at the
northwest mining convention should
throw their whole energy back of the
resolution to indorse Moscow for the
location of main federal experiment
station. 1t is the only way they can
secure the adequate aid of the re-
sources of the federal mining bureau
the only way they can thwart the
bureaus blunder in placing the first
northwest station at Seattle.
A plant at Moscow would command
the united support of the Occur
d'Alenes, which is essential to the sue
cess of Pacific northwest station
Furthermore it would secure the adj
vantages of the equipment and pres
tige of the University of Idaho, and
would probably receive considerable
state support in future years.
If the federal mining bureau really
desires to serve the mining interests
and is ready to ignore for a season
the cries of the pork jugglers. let it
put a main station at MiScow. The
only arguments against such action
are those which might be farmed up
by Seattle in order TO prevent it's sta
tion from deteriorating into solely

KEEP LOOKING YOUNG
It's Easy-If You Know DIR.
Edwards Olive Tablets

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must watch
your liver and bowels-there's no need
of having sallow complexion-dark
rings under your eyes-pimples-a bill
ious look in your face-du1l eyes with
no sparkle. Your doctor will tell you
ninety per cent of all sickness comes
from inactive bowels and liver.
Dr. Edwards, we11-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable COM
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which he gave to
his patients for years.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective. They bring
about that exuberance of spirit, that
natural buoyancy which should be en-
joyed by everyone, by toning up the liver
and clearing the system of impurities.

The danger of overproduction of
horses is remote. 1t costs more to pro-
duce them than any other class of live
stock, writes Wayne Dinsmore in the

many farmers sit back and proclaim
that it doesn't pay to raise horses:
that there never was a time when the
horse market was so dull as now; that
the motor truck and tractor have killed
thing of the past Some people believe
all of this. even though the truth Of
the matter is the opposite.

Keep Eggs Clean.

Provide roomy, clean nests. There
should be at least one nest for every
six hens. Foul nests cause dirty eggs.
Dirty eggs, no matter how large and
fresh, are always graded as seconds
or lower. Gather the eggs often and
keep them in a cool, dry place all TIE
time until they are sold. Use the small,
dirty or cracked eggs at home. Small
eggs are just as wholesome for food
as large ones.

are farmers who are no better off finan-

cause they failed to foresee the profits
from using the right kind of horses
in their farm work. The men who
have made money and who are going
to reap the fruits of their efforts in the
future are those who early saw the I'M

for farm work, who bred that kind and
who will continue to do so without a
