Our, Exclusive Process Gives
TroCO Its Real Butter Flavor
SOIVeS the Butter
Problem

Troco is not merely a butter
substitute; it is the successor to
butter. 1t tastes exactly like the
finest creamery butter and is as
digestible as butter, with the
same high nutritive value.
Troco solves the butter prob
lem for those who hitherto have
used nothing but the best cream
cry butter. These critical users
say that rarely is butter so
sweet and delicate in flavor.
But don't just ask for "nut
butter" or nut margarine" and
expect to enjoy this de luxe
flavor.
Ask for Troco and get the real
butter flavor.

Compare TrOcO zVith the
BeSf Creamery Butter

The test of Troco is on the
table, in comparison with the
best creamery butter. This is
where it wins butter lovers.
For cooking it has no equal,
either in results or from the
standpoint of economy. Troco
goes farther than butter.
Old laws, made before Troco
was invented, compel us to label
it as an oleomargarine. This is
extremely misleading.
Troco is a quality product
used in homes where only the
best is tolerated. Here flavor,
quality and the assurance of fas-
tidious manufacturing methods
insure the popularity of Troco.

GIRLS LOVE LOG" FOUND

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 5.-Sweet young

private school in Atlanta have re-
Gently prepared Love Log" which
was intended for private circulation
only, but some of the details of
which have leaked out in the public
prints. Following are some of the
confidential and intimate disclosures
contained in the interesting little
booklet:
He must love me wildly, and be
half gypsy in his nature" says one
sweet young thing who evidently
knows exactly what she wants.
He must please my mother and
not have twang in his voice." says
another whose ideals are somewhat
less torrid in temperature.
He must have nickname and be
"a cross between gypsy, a cave man
and an lrishman," says another.
And fourth calls for a man who
has brains but who flunked at col
lege, who knows how to swear but
| doesn't except on rare occasions
when he has real provocation."

THREE HUSKY FELLOWS READY TO
HELP OUT IN THE LABOR SHORTAGE

six times this amount of money ex-
pended in labor. For example, one
ton of good fertilizer will now cost
about $4,000. The plant food in this
quantity when applied to three acres
of land will give an increase of about
$50 pounds of lint cotton and 1900
pounds of seed. The lint at soc per
pound amounts to $225.OO, and the
seed at $4,000 per ton amounts to
$4,000, making total of $285.00.
Few business concerns net SO per
cent increase on money invested in
labor, but, granting that the farmer
will net 100 per cent on his invest
ment in labor, and supposing that he
pays $1.00 per day for labor, the
$4,000 invested in fertilizer, when in
vested in labor, would net him SAC. 90;
whereas, when invested in fertilizer, it
gives him a net increase Of $239. 90.
Thus it can be seen the tremendous
advantage of supplementing labor
with liberal applications OF plant food
Likewise an improved piece Of ma.
chinery that makes it possible to cul.
! tivate an acre of cotton or corn with
| perhaps half the labor ordinarily EN-.
| ployed, and cultivate it better, should
be looked to at this time as a source
of help in facing the labor shortage
Good seed Of strain known to dc
well in a community will do much to
ward increasing yields, without an in
crease of acreage.
Is this not time when the farmer
should be sure to use these three croI
makers, to the fullest extent, to off
set the labor shortage?

The best way to economize labor
on the farm today is to produce more

act most unwisely If he tries to cult

10000 OCEAN-GOING VESSELS

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 5.-Striking fig
ures on the present shipping situation
with regard to the sumarine menace
have been published by the Patriotic
Education Society, have just come to
DR.. Andrew M. Soule, Federal Food
Administrator for Georgia. The fol-
lowing facts are outstanding:
Total ocean-going vessels now
ahoat number about $4,000 having a
gross tonnage of about 45,0O0,00O
tons. Losses of shipping during the
war have totalled about 8,783,08O tons
and the supply of ships is about 20
per cent short of normal
The enormous war needs for mu-
milton ships and troop ships added to
those bottled up in neutral harbors
leave a relatively small number of
ships for carrying food.
Shipbuilding in France has been
at a standstill since the beginning of
the war; England's output is less
than normal; Japan is hampered by
lack of materials, and the American
ship supply is only beginning.
This grim condition places addition
al stress on the Importance of send
ing to Europe foods of concentrated
nutritive value and those most urg-
nelly needed-especially meat, wheat,
fats and sugar.

AFTER BIG CANTONMENT

Atlanta, Ga, Feb. 5.-Atlanta has
launched campaign to secure the To-
cation of a big cantonment for the
training of officers and men for the
ordnance department, which the War
Department proposes to locate in the
Southeast.
In connection with the cantonment
there will probably be purchase
and supply depot for the ordnance
department, and this city's advan-
tages for this office are also being
strongly urged.
The cantonment will probably have
a quota of something like $4,000 men.

WHAT WOULD YOU TAKE FOR
ME.

She was ready to sleep, and she lay
on my arm,
In her little frilled cap so fine;
With her golden hair hanging out at
the edge,
Like circle of moon sunshine,
And I hummed the old tune of Ban
bury Cross
And Three Men Who Put Out to
Sea;
When she sleepily said, as she closed
her blue eyes,
Papa, what would you take for me?"
And I answered: "a dollar, dear lit
tie heart"
And she slept, baby-weary with
play
But L held her warm in my love-
strong arms.
And | rocked her and rocked away,
Oh, that dollar meant all the world to
me,
The land and the sea and the sky,
The lowest depth of the lowest place,
The highest of all that's high.
All the cities, with streets and pal
aces,
With the people and stores of art
| would not take for one low, soft
throb
OF my little ones loving heart;
Nor all the gold that was ever found
In the busy, wealth-finding past
Would take for one smile of my
darling's face,
Did | know it must be the last.
SO | rocked my baby and rocked
away,
And l felt such a sweet content,
For the words of the song expressed
more to me
Than they ever before have meant.
And the night crept on, and I slept
and dreamed
Of things far too glorious to be,
And | awakened with lips close in
Papa, what would you take for me?"

and other products of the bakers
which contain an admMture of
other cereals. In order that con-
sumption may be restricted to
this extent Mondays and Wednes-
days should be observed as wheat
less days each week and one meal
each day should be observed as a
wheatless meal.
In both homes and public eat
ing places in order to reduce the
consumption of beef, pork and
sheep products Tuesday should be
observed as meatless days in each
week, one meatless meal should
be observed each day while in ad-
dition Saturday in each week
should further be observed as a
day upon which there should be
no consumption of pork products.
A continued economy in the
use of sugar will be necessary un-
til later in the year. 1t is imper-
ative that all waste and unneces-
sary consumption of all sorts of
food-stuffs should be rigidly elm
mated. The maintenance of
health and strength of our people
is vitally necessary at this time
and there should be no danger
Gus restriction of the food supply
but the elimination of every sort
of waste and the substitution of
other commodities of which we
have more abundant supplies for
those which we need to save will
in no way impair the strength of
our people and will enable us to
meet one of the most pressing OBJ
legations of the war.
l, therefore, in the national in
terest, take the liberty of calling
on every loyal American to take
fully to heart the suggestions
which are being circulated by the
food administration and of beg
ging that they be followed. l am
confident that the great body Of
our women who have labored so
loyalty with the food administra-
tion for the success of food con-
servation will strengthen their
efforts and will take it as a part
of their burden in this period of

above suggestions are observed

No County Agent This Year.

Idaho county will have no coun-
ty agricultural agent. The board
of commissioners at its meeting
Saturday, turned down the propo-
sition, as offered by the U. S. de-
partment of agriculture, and sup
ported by a number of Camas
Prairie farmers.
The board of supervisors was
asked to provide $1,000, or two
thirds of the annual salary of
county agent, and the u. S. gov
ernment agreed to furnish the re-
naming third, or $1,000, of the
county agents salary.
Twenty-six counties in Idaho
now either are employing agricul-
tural agents or are ready to do so.
OF the north Idaho counties, all
but Boundary, Shoshone, Clear
water and Idaho have lined up
for county agents.
The board of county commits
sioners, it is said, felt that the de-
mand for an agent for Idaho
county was not of sufficient mag
nitude to warrant the appropria-
ton of $4,000 toward the salary of
an agent. 1t is declared that the
board, although not in receptive
mood for the proposition at the
recent meeting, is not absolutely
opposed to the proposition. When,
in the opinion of the board enough
farmers declare themselves in fa-
vor of a county agent, the appro=
priation will be made. Free

VIOLATED THE
DRAFT LAW
Anton Reidhaar Arrested
for Failing to Register.

Anton Reidhaar, a young Ger
man-American farmer residing
about ten miles northeast of Cot
tonwood, was arrested Monday by
our local defense officers John
Funke and 0. D. Hamlin-on the
charge of failing to register for
the army draft. He was taken
before U. S. Commissioner Garets
at Grangeville for a hearing, and
that official placed his bonds at
$4,000, and he is being held for
further investigation by the fed
eral authorities. This bond was
not furnished and the young man
is yet in the county Jail, but it is
expected he will be taken at once
to Camp Lewis and placed in the
army. He was examined and
passed by the county board of ex-
aminers at Grangeville.
Reidhaar lacked about a month
of being 81 years of age at the
date of registration on June 5th.
Being SO near the limit of regis
tration age he thought he might
be able to dodge the draft, but in
terested neighbors and our coun-
Gil of defense officers applied to
the church authorities at Meona,
Wisconsin, and learned that he
was born there on July 13, 1886.
Reidhaar is prosperous young
farmer and owns 100 acres of ex-
cellent land, considerable stock
and nearly 5000 bushels of wheat
not yet sold. 1t is reported he
was having new house built on
his farm and expected to be mar
ried soon. He came to this part
of the country about 5 years age
with his father, Jacob Reidhaar
who owns large and valuable
farm adjoining that of his son,
and who testified at the hearing
Monday that he is the father ol
fifteen children.

NOn-P Partisan League Meeting
at Cottonwood.

A meeting of the Non-Partisan
League was held in Cottonwood
yesterday afternoon in the Odd
Fellows hall, at which a large
number of farmers gathered to
hear F. P. Waters, district super
intendent of the organization in
southern Idaho. Mr.. Waters
came to Cottonwood from Ferdi-

speaking tour in Idaho, Lewis and
Clearwater counties. 1t was an
nounced that Mr.. Waters trip in
to this territory at this time was
to discuss the origin, plan and
purpose of the organization and
outline somewhat the work ahead
in the coming campaign. Mr..
Waters was accompanied by Mr..
Taylor, who spent several weeks
here last summer and fall doing
organization work for the League
in this county.
Alter being introduced by An
ton Jansen, who presided at the
meeting, Mr.. Waters gave an in
teresting discussion of the organi-
zation and it's aims for the state
of Idaho. 1t was stated by Mr..
Waters that the Non-Partisan
League was organized in North
Dakota and that 10000 farmers
signed up and elected a farmer
legislature, farmer governor and
complete farmer control of the
state.
The Non-Partisan League start
ed in Idaho last summer. Organ
ization has been going on in many
counties, he stated, and had from
80 to 81 per cent Of the farmers
signed up. The Idaho farmers
have 70 per cent of the vote of
the state, stated Mr.. Waters, and
were going to go into the cam
paign this year to elect state legis-
lators, governor, congressman and
U. S. senators. The campaign is
now started and it is expected to
have a most interesting run from
now on until after the primaries
and general election.
Mr.. Waters went to Grangeville
last night where he will speak at
a meeting billed for tomorrow
afternoon. He will be at Winona
next Monday afternoon.
