WOMEN OF IDAHO TO
 RETAIN THEIR POSITIONS

BOISE. Idaho. Jan. 6 IL is the general opinion among employers that women who have been taking the places of men in Idaho during the war will retain these positions. Will jam r Wallace. manager of the Idaho Power Company, in an interview on this subject, says that he feels that women can fill many positions better than men, in his company, and hc has proved his contentious during the war He does not think many women will lose their positions, par ticularly if they were indoor ones.
 Women proved so successful in tn" box factory of the Boise Payctte Com pany that they will be retained. Women have occupied many positions in the machine shops of the Oregon Short Line, and large number will be retained Women were also em- ployed in the cannerics, and these will be retained. Having few factories, most of the women of Idaho have been employed as elevator operators, clerks, and some few as printers In many instances they have been said to have given equal satisfaction with men. In but one case on record have they received equal pay with men, and that is in Boise print shop.

# You Need a Medicine 81
You Should HAVE tho Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
It is that SO many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
Of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfil
the promises Of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need Of it.
A prominent druggist says ''Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, q
preparation have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re.
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it ful6lls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism. ii

European needs for dairy products
may be largely supplied from pre-war
sources within two years time, and the
American dairy industry may again
feel foreign competition on home mar
kets." This is the conclusion Of Ray
G. Potts, specialist in marketing dairy
products, bureau Of markets, speaking
before recent meeting of food Off
Gals in New York city.
In explaining the work of the bureau
IF markets in gathering and distribut-
.ng accurate market information CT
dairy products, Mr.. Potts pointed out
the stabilizing effect Of such informa-
ton on prices and stated that Auctuat-
ing prices at wholesale make for wider
margins between producer and con-
sumner, while sterilization permits
greater economy in distribution.
Recent monthly reports on milk
prices in 200 cities have called atten-
ton to the wide difference in distribu-
ton costs prevailing in different sec
tions of the country. While economies
in distribution are possible in some
communities tie speaker pointed out
that a saving of 10 per cent in the
cost of distribution would make only
very slight saving to the individual
consumer. A much greater loss to the
public, he said, lies in paying top mar
ket prices for inferior qualities of
dairy products. He advocated stand
ardization of methods of production
and distribution with special atten-
ton to more uniform quality of PROF.
net as one of the great needs of the
dairy industry.

of this is the citrus groves Of Florida.
Y. Combination Systems.
Many farms are adapted,to a combi-
nation of spray and furrow irrigating
systems, the former to irrigate seed
potatoes and small patches of garden
truck, while the latter may be used for
crops planted in rows. When COM
bination of this sort is adopted the
crops under spray usually are those
on rolling or hilly lands where it is not
easy to irrigate by burrows. Where
the .lay Of the land is favorable the
comparative cheapness of the furrow
method recommends it above the more
expensive spray method. In most in
stances where the fHrrow method is
used the crops are planted in rows far
enough apart to permit Of cultivation
by horse-drawn implement.
Information in Bulletins.
The department of agriculture has
for distribution Bulletin 800 entitled
Surface Irrigation for Eastern
Farms" which contains valuable in
formation for the farmer Interested in
surface irrigation. It treats in prac-
teal way the problem Of obtaining a
water supply, how to convey the water
to the land, and the different types Of
pumps and other equipment neces-
sary to make the system practical.
There are also valuable suggestions re-
garding the methods Of applying the
water to the crops.

HOW

Probably there never was greater in.
terest in various formse of irrigation
than at present. Three methods are
popular in sections Of the Eastern
states where conditions justify the ar
tificial application of water to crops.
They are spraying, subirrigation and
surface irrigation. But the forehand-
ed farmer who is making plans for his
spring work hesitates to undertake
new spray irrigation or subirrigation
projects because he is we'll aware of
the expense with prices at their pres
ent level. 1t is timely, therefore, to
suggest the benefits of surface irriga-
ton which do not involve so heavy
an outlay of money.
Two Methods Employed.
Two methods, furrow irrigation and
flooding, are employed. Both are ex-
tensively used in arid sections Of the
country, and their adaptation to east
ern conditions is not difficult. AS its
name implies, furrow irrigation is
merely the running of water down fur
rows between rows Of plants, while If
rigation by flooding is the spreading of
water over fields, usually those in
small grains, alfalfa or grasses. Com
mon field crops are not often irrigated
in the East, yet in occasional instances
cotton, corn and potatoes have been
treated in this way with profit; like
wise fruit trees are benefited by irriga-
