TINE WILL CHANGE
ON OCTOBER 27TH
Clocks VIII Move Back One Hour TO
Old Standard Time

Those who lost an hours sleep
when the time was changed last April
will have an opportunity on October
27th to get even.
On that day all clocks will be SET
back one hour, bringing the nation
al time back TO the STANDARD In use
before the daylight-saving plan went
into effect last spring. The four time
zones, eastern, central, mountain and
Pacific, remain in effect when these
time changes take place, but the
clocks of the nation change nearer
to "sun time" effecting a saving Of
artificial light.
1t was thought last spring that
some confusion might result from
the time changes on the railroads ow-
ing to the fact that thousands of
trains were in motion when the
change was made. No serious acci-
dents and no loss of life occurred,
however, and the railroad officials
are of the opinion that the change
back can now be made just as easily

DISEASE Is MORE
DEADLY THAN WAR
Epidemic Here Than From Ger
man Guns in France

Within three short weeks Spanish
Influenza has developed and spread
so widely and rapidly that Americas
death roll here at home is greater
than of all of her huge armies in
Europe. Moreover, the number of
prostrations from this disease from
day to day in America Is probably
greater than the combined casualty
lists of all of the fighting forces en-
gagged in this great World War. The
number of cases In New York City
alone has increased from a total of
AZ cases to 1928 new cass and 393
deaths in a single. day. Moreover,
the statement is said to have been
made by a prominent physician
Dr. Goldwater-that the actual num-
Der of cases In New York is about
half million.
This is not intended as an alarm
ist statement but is simply a brief
summary of facts currently report
ed in the daily press. While these

HAY GROWERS MEETING

All interested in the marketing
of the 1918 hay crop are invited to
meet on the court house lawn at
Shoshone, Saturday, October 26th, at
d. m. R. E. Shepherd, who has
recently made an extensive trip in
north Idaho, reports hay selling at
$4,000 per ton. AS a consequence,
many livestock owners are selling
stock on the market. At the present
time hay in Lincoln county is selling
for s12.00 in the stack, with very
little moving. Mr.. Shepherd sug-
gests that Lincoln county farmers
in mass meeting petition Director
General McAdoo to grant special
rate for southern Idaho hay, in or
der that the situation in north Idaho
may be relieved. Harvey Alfred, or
the State Farm Markets department
has been invited to speak.

In a letter received from Ivan Ben

flying cadet Ivan speaks of the
work as being hard and at times dis
couraging, but has every assurance
that 1t will all come in time. The
following extract tells of his first
attempt at flying:
I'VE were held up here a week on
account of the Spanish Flu, but
started flying a few days ago. Have
been up three times and like It i'm
mensely. although / am still rank
novice and am kept so busy handling
the controls that l can't look aroun l
much and enjoy myself. The first
time up my instructor took me for
'joy-ride as he called it. He went
up about 1000 feet, did few turns
and steep spirals, then nosed the
machine straight down and turned
off the engine. AS we started to
slip down at a terrific speed the
queerest feeling crept over me-oh

Gus; in fact / was so nervous that
my hair stood on end. My stomach
too. seemed to have trouble keepint
up. and acted like It wanted to clint

fellows do. and ii is worse than sea

rail either because the wind cut

MAKING WOOL GROWING
PARAMOUNT IN THE WEST

In various western state fairs 1t
was noticed less attention was paid
to the sheep and wool industry than
1t deserved.
There are few farms in the state
that could not afford to keep from
a dozen to fifty sheep and improve
the farm and its finances.
They make a living with half
chance, are great browsers, and help
keep down weeds and underbrush
and fertilize the land.
At the present price of wool fifty
sheep would put from $500 to $500
a year in the owners pocket to say
nothing of lambs and mutton.
Instead of sheep and wool pro-
duction declining several hundred
million pounds of wool additional
could be grown in western states.
April 25 warehousing and grading
of wool was taken over by the fed
eral government and Portland is the
wool center for the west.
Fifteen million pounds Of wool
will be handled there this year by
the government, and distributed d.
rect from growers to woolen mills.
These woods are grown In Oregon.
Washington, Idaho, Montana and
Wyoming. and Californa gets these
graded woods from Oregon.
Formerly the dealers bought wool
in sacks and usually at the value CT
the lower grades, then sorted and
sold at the higher values.
Now the woods are sorted for the
grower and he gets the full value
for each grade and in 250,000 pounds
there may be thirty grades.
A carload Of wool from the shear
ing sheds weighs $4,000 pounds an'
when graded and compressed to th'
government standards weighs SO,
900 pounds.
This is a saving OF from nifty 4
seventy-five per cent on the wool Gil
of the west on freight alone, beside
saving cars.
Conditions are changing and ther
is not good reason why wool an
sheep growing should not becom
the paramount livestock industry.

has also advocated legislation to reg

harness and other commod
tiles farmers have to buy. He has
specialized on the enactment of leg
islation for the benefit of settlers on
the public land and has several laws
of this character to his credit.
He initiated and carried through
to a successful conclusion legislation
providing for the government to take
over the King Hill irrigation project,
for which 100000 was appropriate

plan, strongly endorsed by the Ad-
ministration, to encourage private
capital to invest in irrigation bonds
where the projects are constructed
by the Reclamation Service, under
which the Bruneau, North Side Min

irrigation projects will be construct
