" YOU CAN BUILD"

THE recent restrictions placed by
the War Industries Board upon the
erection of new buildings. repairing.
remodeling or additions. has been
misunderstood In many localities"
said Mr.. E. A. Nunamaker, of the
Home Lumber Company of this city
today. Many of the farmers of this
vicinity believed that the government
order was to not only restrict them
from repairing or building new build
ings, but to do SO would be unpatrt-
otto, but this is not the case" he de-
clared
1T is true" said Mr.. Nunamaker,
that the government, in its effort
to conserve materials and labor, has
decreed that expenditures for new
buildings are not to exceed $1,000
without permit, and for repairing,
restriction is we'll founded and the
government means to be fair and In
no way stop essential building i'm
provements, therefore does not work
any hardships upon the farmer; the
amount allowed for repairing. re-
modelling and additions is far in ex-
cess of the amount expended for
such purposes on the average farm"
"Of course the amount allowed
for new buildings will cover cost of
many of the necessary buildings such
as implement sheds to protect your
implements, grain storage buildings
to store your grains, barns to pro-
tect your stock, silos to preserve
your silage. II proper consideration
is given to economical construction
and materials. improvements of this
character are most essential and
among the most important weapons
that will aid in winning the war"
"A DUTY which / owe to this
community as a LUMBER MERCH-
ANT is to render every possible serv-
ice to those in need of materials for
essential improvements and all con-
nected with the Home Lumber &
Coal Co. will recommend only the
most economical construction and
rons to keep their expenditures
within the government maximum,
and if over amount and essential,
am sure the local committee of the
National Council of Defense will
give fair and just consideration to
any requests for permits"
THE spirit of our firm and every
one connected is to render our pat
rons and our country the best pos
sible service, and to assist and help
to locate Pershing's Headquarters I'm

JEROME MAKES RECORD
AS A SHIPPING POINT

Last week ninety-three cars of
produce left the local platform con-
signed to outside points. This total
of cars represents a tonnage shipped
from Jerome CT more than all the
combined shipping from other points
on the Rupert-Bliss branch OF. the
Oregon Short Line. One Jerome firm
has shipped during the past three
weeks from the Jerome, Barrymore
and Wendell sections total of
twenty-four cars of potatoes, which
goes to show that there was an I'M
usual production of the tubers for
even this favored section. The same
firm shipped 2 total of 100000
pounds of other produce in one day
from the local depot.

charmed us. Believe, my dear mad
