WORLD war DID NOT Upset
SANTA'S XMAS SCHEDULE
BY The United Press.


NEW YORK. Dec. 24.-When 70 comes
to overcoming all obstacles ami get
ting there Santa Claus can always BE-
counted on.
He arrived right on time this morn
Ing although nearly one-half Of the
world Is engaged In fighting the other
half. Many figured the war would de-
lay Santa Claus-that he would have
hard time getting around-but he was
here, there and everywhere last night
as the youngsters will testify. Trans
portation problems that would bafn
the worlds greatest railway expert
were easy for him.
His greatest trouble this year was
with the toy makers. His great toy
factories In Germany where for many
years the majority Of Xmas toys were
maze was otherwise engaged this year.
Santa's best workmen instead OF manu-
featuring toys for the children of ihc
world were either fighting on the
kurOuean battle0cids or making guns
shells, submarines and other imple-
ments Of war with which men arc kill
ing men.
Practically an the great toy factories
in Europe had long ago ceased manu-
featuring toys and like the factories in
Germany were turning out war ma
lerials.
For a while this did not worry Santa
10 any great extent. He was counting
on American factories for his supply
Of toys this year. Then-just when
these factories began filling Santa's or
der for millions Of dollars worth Of
toys-the United States. entered the
war. The American factories were also
transformed into war factories. Work
on the toys was stopped-slmost en-
iirely Tho steel, tin and other ma
ierials Of which toys are made were
needed for war purposes. But Santa
hurriedly arranged things with the war
kings and in a short time the toy fac
tories were running fun blast.
The toys made hero IN the United
staten cost morc-Sania Claus Will tell
you that-bui the children will tell
YOU the toys are better than the made
IN Germany" kind
In fact the American made toys are
so much better that a great part Of
100000 worth Of toys made In Ger
many but held up In Rotterdam by the
war until just in time TO be brought
over TO this country on the Xmas boat
were not used at al and are still 0c-
cupying shelf space in toy shops
throughout the country.
So you see when it comes 10 toys the
war had little or no effect on the Amer
lean youngsters Xmas.

The Etiquette Of the Flag.

Now that Moscow citizens are plan
ming to put an American flag on CO.
foot pole on every square in the city
the following from the Literary Dig
est will be of interest and value.
When Dewey's feet returned to
New York after the Battle of Man
lila Bay, Swedish janitor in a
large department store hoisted an
American flag with the Union down,
and flew the signal of distress
throughout the celebration. A pat
riotic citizen would hardly have made
80 fragrant an error, but in displaying
flags or bunting there are many fine
points to be observed, remarks Harr,
Lee King, deputy Commissioner Of
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1917-04-13

Boy Scouts. In the New York Trib-
une he gives these rules for flying the
national colors:
l. The proper time for raising
the flag is sunrise or after, never
before.
2. The flag must be lowered at
sunset.
3. In draping the flag against the
side of a room or building, the proper
position for the blue field is toward
the north or toward the east,
1t is "A mark of disrespect to allow
the flag to fly throughout the night.
There is no uniform usage in the dis
play of bunting. but it is Just as
easy to hang it in the correct fashion.
When buildings are decorated in bunt-
ing draped horizontally, the red
should be at the top, according to a
letter from the war department pub
lished in the New York Sun:
War department,
Office of the Quartermaster- General
washington, ID. &.
There are no regulations prescrib-
ing the method of utilizing bunting
for decorative purposes, but good taste
requires that the order shall be red at
the top, followed by white, then blue,
in accordance with the heraldic colors
of the nationael flag

Alfalfa Pasture in Pork Production.

No one living on the irrigated lands
of south Idaho questions the splendid
returns from Alfalfa when grown for
hay and for seed production. Until
the Experiment Sub-stations began
the investigation, however, no data
were available on the value of alfalfa
pasture in pork production. The re-
suits of pasture work at Gooding and
Caldwell for the 1916 season are now
available. On the Gooding sub
station 81 pigs grown on the station
farm were turned into one-half acre
of alfalfa pasture early in the season.
They were kept on the pasture l3l
days. They consumed in that time in
addition to the pasture 1884 pounds
of grain and 1878 pounds of skim
milk. They gained 1862 pounds in
weight. The hogs were sold for SO
per cwt. After making an allowance
of $l.75 per cwt. for the grain fed and
twenty cents per cwt. for the skim
milk fed, the net returns from the
alfalfa pasture alone were $47.74,
equivalent to $95. ls per acre.
The stream running through the
main part of the city, says the
Grangeville Globe, took on river size
from the rain and melting snow, anc
came rushing down from the hills to
the south today, causing the overflow
to fill the easements under Sasen

Wide Tire Law Passed.

In the interest of good roads the
last Legislature PASSED law prohibit
ing the sale of narrow tired wagons,
which has been put before every leg
islature for the past six or eight
years, but for some res on never got
through. The new law, however,
requires the sanction and cooperation
of the board of county commissioners
before becoming effective in any
county. The 3-inch tire is required
under the new law. There is no
question but that the wide tire is the
proper thing, for instead of cutting
up road and running it. it packs it,
but while the legis lature was about
it. they should have made it state
law, instead of leaving it up to the
county commissioners to vitalize it.
