cold storage plants, the Bureau OF Msr-
kois Of the United states Department OF
Agriculture suggests that holders Of
stocks OF potatoes consider the advlsa-
bil'ty Of shifting portions OF their hold
ings from common to cold storage. pro-
ided such stocks are OF good quality
snd the costs Of handling are not oN-
cessi,e. Unless such potatoes are moVH
very soon serious losses by sprOuting
AMI decsY will result, which can only
bs avoided by keeping them at cold
storaee temperatures. Directions for
hsndl ng potatoes in cold storages are
given by the department.
Potatoes should be stored in the cold
storage house in bass, boxes or crates,
which should be piled so as TO permit
free circulation Of air. and care should
be exercised in handling them TO avoid
ell unnecessary injury.
II potatoes are sorted and graded and
placed IN cold storages at tempera-

IDAHO STUDENTS
WILL BUY BONDS
GOVERNOR ALEXANDER TELLS
SPOKANE NEWSPAPER OF
PATRIOTISM SHOWN HERE

Each of the 600 members OF the
students army training corps at the
University of Idaho voluntarily
pledged himself to buy $50 Liberty
bond next pay day, when reviewed
on the university campus yesterday
by Governor Moses Alexander of
Idaho, who was at the Davenport last
night. Others of the student body
and members of the faculty also
agreed to purchase bonds and Cover
nor Alexander estimates that the
subscriptions from the institution
will reach nearly $4,000.
"It was one of the most inspiring
things that l ever witnessed when
the soldier-stud in a body an
nounced their intention to subscribe
to the Liberty loan," said Governor
Alexander "These men are not only
giving their time to the government
for but a small remuneration as COM
pared to that they could command in
other lines of work, but they are also
offering their lives as well. 1t seems
to me that such a demonstration of
loyalty to country should induce pri-
vate citizens Of means to respond
more generously to the nations ap-
peal for financial aid" Spokesman

LEWISTON WINS
WAR FOR FREEDOM
IDAHO TOWN PUT THE KAISER
AND HIS ALLIES ON THE
TOBOGGAN SLIDE

Some are inclined to give the credit
for winning the war to General Foch;
others give the United States the
credit and there are others who claim
that all Of the nations engaged in
fighting the kaiser and his allies are
entitled to equal credit. But it has
just been learned that an Idaho coun-
ty council of defense is really res
ponsible for putting the skids under
the kaiser and starting the stampede
for peace.
To Lewiston, Idaho the Credit Belongs
And here is how it happened. Lew
iston has wise council of defense.
1t is not only wise but patriotic and
studious. 1t got together and studied
the situation. 1t saw way to win
the war and, without a flourish of
trumpets or the tinkling of brass, it
went to work quietly to win the war
and it succeeded.
Gasoline. That was the keynote
to the situation. Cut off gasoline and
the war would be ended. So an or
der was issued that no gasoline was
to be sold on Sunday.
No notice was given the public.
The order was issued Saturday night
that no gasoline would be sold, no
work done on automobiles, no auto
mobile accessories would be sold from
midnight, Saturday, until midnight,
Sunday.
A resident of an adjoining state
reached Lewiston Sunday evening in
his car. He was nearly out of gaso
line. He wanted to come to Moscow,
but he had not enough gasoline to
climb the Lewiston grade to Union
town where supply could be OBJ
tanned. He pleaded with the man
ayers of several Lewiston garages,
but in vain They were firm in their
resolution to help win the war. "The
federal government has forbidden us
to sell gasoline on Sunday and we
cannot take any chances" was the
stereotyped answer to the pleas for
gasoline.
But one garage manager, wiser
than the others, solved the problem.
"Wait until midnight and we will sell
you all the supplies you want" he
said.
There was nothing else to do. The
man waited until the clock struck II,
secured supply VI SdoOiitS dllu
came on to Moscow. He had to be
here Monday morning. He was not
but he did not under
stand that by waiting a few hours for
his gasoline he would be an instru-
ment in winning the war, but he wait
ed. He got his gasoline and drove
north, pondering on the wisdom of
the Lewiston council of defense.
But he saw that these men were
''wise beyond their day and genera
tion" In a few days Gust long
enough for the news of the action Of
the Lewiston council of defense TO
reach Bulgaria) word came that Bull
garia had surrendered uncondition
ally. 1t took a few days longer for
the word to reach Turkey, but when
the Turks learned that no gasoline
was sold in Lewiston until after mid
night, peace offers were sent to the
allies. Austria would not believe that
Lewiston had done this and is still
and when it learns that
it is a fact, that the traveller had to
wait until after midnight for his gas
there can be no doubt that Austria
will surrender. Even the kaiser is
abdicating.
Great is Lewiston. All honor to
aer and her council of defense.

LATAH COUNTY STILL LACKS
s388, TOO OF HER QUOTA

Will Latah county raise her quota, in
the fourth Liberty loan drive or will the
county, the city and the university be
disgraced?
These questions are worrying more
than one head in Moscow and Latah
county. When the last reports we're
footed up the county lacked $398,700 of
having its quota raised and most of the
large subscriptions were in. Mark P.
Miller today gave $4,000, which gave
the drive big boost and places Moscow
we'll above SO per cent of her quota, but
outside of Moscow the county is little
below 50 per cent.
Reports have not been received from
several outside towns for several days
and none reported for yesterday. When
these reports are received it is believed
they will add much to the county's total.
Jerome J. Day has offered $4,000 if
the county raises its quota, and with this
inducement the committee is going to
work harder than ever

One of the best pieces of patriotic
window dressing seen in Moscow is
that of the Hub store on west Main
street. One of the large show win
dows is decorated with the national
colors and Liberty loan emblems, that
are strikingly arranged and attract
great deal of attention. The appeal
to buy bonds is so great in this dis
play that it cannot help having good
effect in stimulating The purchase of
nonds. The work is artistic and ap-
