ask the shopman to tell you something
about Jade he will answer that the
true jade is seldom found outside of
Asia and Oceanica, but that in these

considerable quantities. ss
You, of course, know that q dia-
mond is SO hard that 1t will scratch
glass, but perhaps you have not heard
that Jade is also extremely tough and
will cut glass and quartz. Because of
its great hardness the man who carves
1t must possess vast patience, and the
Chinese are almost the only people
who have sufficient patience and per
sistence to carve designs in Jade.
The Chinese make numberless arti-
cles out of jade-paper weights, ham
dies for swords. belts, bangles. rings,
vases, cups, plates, pendants, and so on.
Jade is far from cheap to buy. Now
adays fine pieces Of Jade are just as
much valued among collectors as are
fine paintings for their great beauty
and artistic value. So. then, If some
one gives you a little pendant Of cary
ed jade, you will understand that you
have a present which not only would
be valued highly today, but n which

Apparently it will soon be nec-
essary to treat all strikers and |.
w. w. leaders as common enemies
of the government. Their demon
strations in many instances have
been SO nearly akin to treason and
anarchy that a very severe penalty
should be inflicted upon the leaders
and members who have seemingly
lost all sense Of what they owe
their government in its time of
trial. Threats have been made by
members Of this organization to
the effect that unless their demands
with reference to the big copper
strike, were granted, there would
he no wheat crop in North America
this season. This alone ought to
be enough to cause public senti.
ment to become so strong that every
true American would lend his assist
ance in stamping out this anarch-
istic organization.

The demand for houses to rent is
growing stronger. Some families
are having to put up with two
rooms and others who expect to
come here to live some time before
fall have no place in view where
they can make their home. If some
of the capitalists Of the town do not
invest some Of their surplus funds
in the erection of bungalows to rent
conditions will be rather serious this
fall. Every family that moves here
to live brings just that much extra
money to be spent among the
different business houses. At least
a dozen more houses are needed
here and the rents received are
sufficient to pay good interest on the
investment.
Bungalows of about five rooms
can be built for from $500 to $500
and they will rent readily for $40
or $l2 a month. A good opportun-
ity for some n to invest.

The government printing Office
fills our waste paper basket at least
once a week with miscellaneous
printed matter. Today we received
a sixteen page pamphlet on 1.-THE
Determination of Bacteria in Ice
Cream" 1t would no doubt prove

ed in such things. We judge by
the size of the pamphlets that to
test ice cream for bacteria would
take several hours and in this hot

frozen that long. So we r going
to eat ice cream in the same old
way without knowing the particular
breed or species of bacteria it may
contain.

Congress seems perfectly willing

Clipped from Exchanges

Inc amount OF money distributed
among the farmers by the local
creamery this month, for ream de-
livered at the factory, will be right
at $4,000. This is more than the
factory has ever paid out in a single
month and indicates the large vol
ume of business the plant has done
during the past thirty days. The
butter output for June has averaged
about 1900 pounds weekly. Prices
paid for fat have averaged better
than Spokane prices, since the.pro-
Queer when shipping to Spokane
would have to pay transportation.
The butter made here finds ready
sale as fast as it can be made and
not d pound remains on hand be-
tween churnings except a sufficient
quantity to supply the local trade.
The plant now receives cream from
all along the Wilmington. Idahe &
Montana railroad, seldom a day
passing that there is not a number
of cans of cream set off the train.

NO GREAT RUSH
TO SELL BONDS,
SAYS MCCARTHY

Because the plans and sDecifica-
tions for most of the projects con.
templated in the legislative appro-
priations this year have not been pre-
pared as yet, Treasurer C. J.. McCar-
thy is not offering the sale of terri
torial bonds actively at the present
time.
Treasurer Mccarthy said today
that he does not believe that it would
be good business to borrow the mon.
ey at this time and pay out interest
at per cent when the banks in
which territorial money is lying are
paving 2 per cent to the territory. If
any purchasers desire to secure
bonds he will not refuse them, but
until the Improvement projects are
ready for work to begin he will not
press the campaign He believes
there will be no difficulty in dispos-
ing OF the bonds at the proper time
Thus far the sale of territorial!
bonds amounts to s525,0o0. The first
Improvement project to come under
the new fund will be the Kona-Kau
road on Hawaii to be. built for $780,
900.
