Bread in England.
Buys American Flour; Sells 1t
for Less in England.
LAW MORE STRICT THAN U. S.
'Mustn't Judge U. S. Dealers by
Few Pirates"
Hoover Explains Why Lower
Prices in England.
LAW MORE STRICT THAN U. S.

Washington, Oct 25.-The English
consumer buys bread made from Amer
lean wheat at nearly half the price
Americans pay here because British
government subsidy keeps bread
prices down. Also, the English bread
is only IS per cent as pure as Amerl-
can. No American food product is
being sold in England as cheaply as IN
the United States unless under govern
ment subsidy.
This explanation was made today by
the food administration. 1t was made
after attention had been called to
figures from London which showed
the English housewife actually paying
lower prices for many staples than the
American housewife is obliged to pay.
England fixes maximum wholesale
and retail prices in manner impos-
sible under American law, the food
administration pointed out. Its state
ment flayed certain American retail
dealers.
Condemns ''Few Pirates.''
THE price asked for sugar by some
merchants is without justification, II
said. Many retailers are conducting
their business on proper lines and the
whole trade must not be condemned
for a few pirates"
The reasons for England's lower
food prices on many necessities of life
were given thus:
THE prices of practically oil essen
fiaI foods in England are now under
government control. with profits for
handling fixed very closely upon pre-
historic war basis.
while it is true that flour is sell
ing at retail in England cheaper than
in the United States, it is only because

Work on the new postoffice will be
well under way by next July, is the
news brought by Senator Curtis
When asked concerning the building
prospect he said, that while the
money was in the treasury, owing to
the increased price of material, the
authorities thought better to do moth
ing toward letting the contract until
early spring. But in the opinion of
Senator Curtis, the work will be well
under way by the first of July.
Buys Liberty Bonds.
The Rochester Cemetery associa-
ton at the recent annual meeting
perpetual care fund be invested in
liberty bonds. The association has six
trustees, serving for a term of two
years, with election every year. The
new trustees are Mrs ]. F. Cecil, J.
o. Browning and Peter Meyer. Those
holding over are Mrs. D. L. Button,
president; A. G. Merritt, secretary;
Frank P. Rude, treasurer. Many i'm
provements have been made on the
grounds within the last year, the en-
trance drive and arched gateway be-
ing especially noticeable and adding
greatly to the natural beauty of the
grounds.
The Rev. J.. H. Jones, pastor of the
Christian church, is in Kansas City,
attending the national convention of
Christian churches. A ministers pen
sion fund, including insurance fea-
lures, was ratified. The plan proposes
to guarantee ministers annual pen
sions of $500 at IS years of age, after
thirty years of continuous service as
a pastor.
The Third department, United Ep-
worth Leagues, Miss Gertrude Thomp-
son, president, held a meeting Tues
day evening at the Kansas Avenue
studying social service and an inter-
esting address was made by Miss
Louisa Duncan Shaffer, superinten-
dent of nurses of the Public Health
Nursing association. Miss Shaffer said
in part:
LAS all human development de-
ponds on heredity and environment,
then it is the first right of every child
to be well born, sound in body, with
the highest development.
1.-THE second right is that its birth
should be carefully and permanently
recorded, that every right of inheri-
lance may be safeguarded. Every
child surely has a right to the best
education possible under the control
of it's parents. This education should
begin at home as soon as the infant
shows signs of notice, nor should it
stop until the limit of the parent has
been reached"

ward bees, or berries, or wanted to find
time to build up a good laying strain
of chickens. This ambition now fur
nishes him an occupation. He has
time for it. There is no limit to the
interest of such speciality. 1t is real
mans work. 1t brings him money,
for he can sell the product, and also
glory for he can compete for prizes and
teach other people his methods. He
is living on his own land and can see
that both buildings and soil are kept
up to his own standards. Instead of
cutting all the old neighborhood ties
he maintains them and works to up
hold community standards. He has
an automobile and if there is anything
that he or mother want to see within
twenty-five or fifty miles, they do not
miss it. When he goes to town every
body is glad to see him, because he is

him, because he has had too much
sense to get scrambled.

Loran Morgan joined the local com.
pany of militia this week and went to
Grangeville Tuesday evening with
the rest of the boys.
Enoch Crosby returned late last
week and Lloyd came in Monday
evening from trip to Montana, the
latter having stopped off for a couple
of days to visit his folks near Leland.
While away the boys purchased a fine
160-acre farm near st. Ignatius, Mont,
and intend to move up there with
their families next week to make it
their future home. The boys paid
$1,000 for the place but got stock and
machinery enough with it to operate
the place and have an opportunity to
