and is located on two transcontinenal
railways, the Great Northern and SpO-
kane International. Boomers Ferry is

dairy line.

ern school buildings and an efficient
corps of teachers. Seven religious de-
nominations are represented and near
ly all of the best lodges have organi-
cations. The city is well supplied with
all kinds of business houses which car
ry large stocks of merchandise.
The citizens of Boundary county
and Boners Ferry are energetic and
wide-awake and are willing and anx-
ious to encourage the coming of new
settlers in the county.
The Kootenai Valley Commercial
Club is a live organization and if any
reader of the Herald desires full par
ticulars concerning the town or coun
ty, write A. ]. Kent, secretary of the

coed the cost of a cement floor.
The principal fault of a cement floor
is that it is likely to he cold and damp.
These conditions may be corrected by
covering the floor to a depth of an
inch or two with dry earth or sand,
using over this scratching litter of
straw or shavings. Floors so treated
require as much routine work to keep
them in good order as earth floors. but
the supply nf clean earth required Is
much less and the work of annual rem
ovation is eliminated.
Floors Of wood are not o much
used in poultry houses except when the
space under the floor is high enough to
be occupied by poultry. A wooden
floor close to the ground o rOts,
while n space under a floor not high
enough to be used for poultry makes
a harbor for rats and other vermin.
The wooden floor of a poultry house
should have a light coating of dry
earth, sand, chaff or similar material,
to prevent the %droppings of the birds
from sticking to and saturating the
boards.

In making the floor of the poultry
house several things must be taken
into consideration. Where the soil on
which the house is constructed is light
and well drained, earth floors are salts
factory and economical. Where the
soil is heavy and drainage is not good,
as is usually the case when it contains
much clay. floors made Of wood or ce-
ment are generally preferred. Each
kind of floor has its advantages and
disadvantages, and it is only after the
consideration Of all types should a
poultry keeper make his selection.
A floor of earth needs to be renewed
at least once a year. If the droppings
that fall upon the floor are carefully
removed at frequent, regular intervals,
much of the earth is removed with
them. If the regular cleaning of the
floor is superficial. the earth of the
floor to a depth of several inches be-
comes so mixed with drOppings that Its
condition is very insanitary.
When the poultry keeper has a gar
den, the manure obtained by removing
the earth floor of the poultry house will
compensate for the labor of renewing
the floor, and the new earth required
can be taken from a convenient spot
on his own land. When the poultr!

the outside, a feature which every
housewife will appreciate. The hall,
from which the stair to the second
floor begins, is centrally located and
can be entered directly from the re-
ception hall, dining room or kitchen.
The second floor is arranged so that
three bedrooms are provided, each
having a cOmmOdious closet. The
front and side bedrooms have three
windows and the back bedroom has
two, assuring effective ventilation n
lighting.
In order that the greatest good may
be obtained from the large front porch
of this house, it would probably be de-
sirabIe to build the porch with a
screen Enclosure. So fitted, it may cas-
tly be inclosed with storm sash dur
ing the winter months, making the
house easier to heat, especially in case
prevailing winds strike the house on
| the porch side. The cost of this in
stallation is considered by most home
owners to be fully repaid in the pleas
ure and enjoyment which it makes
possible.

at least 40 feet is provided, the hous'

almost disappeared. The change IS
rather sudden They are Yankees

happens that the people at home

That good old epithet would new

two things feeling that our
Southern soldiers would not like to
be called by a name reminiscent OF
Civil War bitterness, and feeling
that there ought to be some intor-

comparable with Tommy and

AMERICAN MANUFACTURE
ERS WILL EXTEND TRADE
To Get More Goods Into the Latin
Countries.

Washington, June 29.-The COM
ing visit Of DR.. Mario Diaz lrizar OF
Cuba to the United States for con-
ference with business men and other
officials of the Pan-Amercan Trade
mark Bureau, of which Doctor lri-
zar is director in North America, is
expected to result in greatly fur
thering the protection OF manutac-
turers who are endeavoring to in
crease their export trade III Latin
American countries.
The matter of trademarked arti-
cles in Latin-America has caused
great trouble to business men and
has long offered wide field for
unscrupulous adventures, and not
ably for Germans, some OF whom
have secured large amounts OF
money from American manufactur-
ers by methods closely resembling
blackmail. Patents and copyrights
come under the same head and ef-
forts are being made by the Pan
American Trademark Bureau to

up in pirating the good names OF
reliable manufactured articles.
The purpose OF the pirates is new
er to manufacture, according to
William c. Wells, chief statistician
of the Pam American Union.
They simply register the trade
mark" he said today, "and there
after control the selling of the arti-
Gle in the country in which they
have registered it. That is all that is
necessary under the laws OF all the
l. countries.
The object OF the Pan-Amercan
Bureau is to prevent this
fraudulent registration. All the coun-
tries OF both Americas are interested
in the bureau, which has branches
in North and South America. The
modus operandi OF the man who
registers trademarks is simple. All
he has to do is to find some article
that is being advertised extensively |
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1918-06-30

in the United States and OF which
there is probability that it will be
introduced in his country.
THE registration fee is usually
small and when the trickster has
made his registration he sits back
and waits for the business to come
to him. When the manufacturer
comes to introduce his article in
that country he finds that he has to
deal with the man who registered it.
Sometimes he has to pay big roy
atty or large lump sum to be oper-
ate there.
at is to correct this state of af
fairs that the bureau was organ
lied"
1t was pointed out by an official
in Washington that United States
manufacturers can easily circumvent
the trademark pirates by changing
the trademark when he is ready to
introduce the article in any country
where it has been fraudulently reg
istered.
But these manufacturers are

ed. Enough cars, presumably, can
be provided somehow or other, un-
der present management, when the
need becomes sufficiently urgent.
The main thing, in the opinion OF
most observers, is simply to dig the
coal. There is an undeniable labor
shortage. But cannot that short
age be overcome, in view of the I'M
portance of the task Cannot
enough miners be provided, some
how or other, to get the requisite
supply OF coal above ground before
it is too late to distribute it for
the winter?
We are solving the shipping prob
lem, the food problem, the munitlon
problem, the airplane problem, sat

no less vital coal problem
