Our County Food
Administrator Fired

The food administration has re-
leased all its county administrators,
and George F. Gagon of Blackfoot is
one of those who is in full possession
Of a dollar as salary for the year
, 1918, part of 1917 and part of 1919.
The government pays its food admin
istrators dollar year, and for a
fraction of year, mere matter of
few months, it goes in as good
measure, by the rules of the union,
the walking delegate having given
it his o. X.
Mr. Gagon did not spend all of his
time on the food job, but there were
times when he put in overtime, SO
it balances up. He furnished his
own office free of rent, his own type
writer, furniture and fixtures, letter.
heads and various other things, but
the government furnished ranked
envelopes, so he did not have to buy
the stamps.
Sometimes when he needed a ball
of twine or some wrapping paper or
uhy WIG VI q uoLOl LhLA6o IAdL uusl
be used to complete a Job, and there
were no funds to buy with, he would
go out to some office or store and
bum or borrow what he needed
Sometimes he needed large number
of letters written, all about alike,
and then he would go to some news
paper and bum the printing. On
such occasions he would walk in and
say, do you want to do something
for your country"
Sure Mike!"
"Well. just print me 600 of these,
and 24O of this form, and then print
all Of this in the ne rspaper and use
the same type to print about 800
slips from it. There isn't any money
to pay you for it, and don't think
there ever will be. How soon can
| have them?"
Then he would go back to his Of
flee and write the individual letters
to explain all the different things
that a lot of folks wanted to know
or that they had scolded him about,
and get them to 60 without sugar,
eat substitutes for food, take water
for booze, sunlight for lanterns and
all the multitudinous requirements
Of the win-the-war game.

FIGHT OVER PRINT PAPER

A government investigation is be-
ing made to see If the price of print
paper can be kept from going any
higher, and to see If the mills can
be prevented from exporting pulp
or paper. The mills have been told
what price they must sell at during
the war, and now they claim the pri-
vilege of being governed by supply
and demand, but the publishers will
put up the fight of their lives to pre-
vent that, knowing quite well that
prices would 60 up and many more
publishers be driven to the wall.
One Disaster Follows Another
Newspaper interests suffered
crushing defeat at the hands of con-
gress recently when they refused to
repeat the zone system of postage
for newspapers and magazines, and
voted to let still more drastic regu-
lations take effect the first of July.
1t virtually prohibits newspapers
from circulating, more than two or
three hundred miles from the place
OF publication unless there is a sub
stantial increase in the price of sub
scription or advertising or both.
The large newspapers fought it Bit,
terly and lost. The smaller news
tnapers3 were divided in their opinion.
II the publishers lose in the COM
ng fight to prevent the high price
f print, the publishers who are tied
tp with advertising contracts and
paid subscriptions at low rates. will
have hard shedding to get thru. A
good many cheap advertising medi-
inns, especially little farm journals
and household or housekeeping
journals with enormous subscription
lists at low rates or free, are al
ready failing to appear.

EARL MALM> WRITES HOME

Earl Malm of Wapello writes to
his people that he is in Germany with
the army of occupation, and rather
enjoys it. Weeks pass as so many
days. and each day brings its features
of interest. He is making collec-
ton of foreign coins and sends them
home for the folks to keep.
Earl says he has had the fellow
ship of his neighbor Lyman Anderson
much of the time in the army. In
his last letter he remarked that he
had not seen Lyman for a couple
of weeks, but that he was probably
ahead somewhere and they would
brush elbows sooner or. later.

said Mr.. Gagon, "and If Fritz doesn't

Daily Horoscope
Tuesday, December %, 1919

downright, 1919, by the Mcclure
Newspaper Syndicate)
Mercury, Saturn and Venus are in
benefic aspect today, according To as
trology. Mars INC Uranus are ad-
verse.
This should be an especially favor
able day for estimating profits ana
settling up the years accounts, for
Mercury is in a place that is most
promising.
Theatres and all amusement enter
prises should prosper the remainder
OF the week, despite tradition.
Increase of public interest in the
drama again is foretold for the COM
ing year, out there will be a popular
movement to bring the price of thea
tire tickets within the reach of those
of small means.
Venus is in an aspect supposed to
forecast the spending of money for
gems and for utensils of gold and
silver. Extravaganza in the purchase
of Jewels will be so marked that its
sinister significance will be recOg-
nized, the seerS declare.
Uranus, the planet of i~conoclastic
tendencies, is in threatening aspect
today. Again labor troubles and riots
are prognosticated.
The spirit of war loosed for two
years will still be strong, it is pre-
dicted, and will affect many minds
during the coming months, making
for clashes between workers and the
police.
1t is prognosticated that one of the
United States senators has dangerous
directions in his nativity and viii
probably pay sorely for hard fought
victories.
Mars today is In a place believed
to encourage INSTRUMENTATION and
discomfort among workers.
Big events are written on the rec
ord of time that will soon be unfold
ed, astrologers assert, and the new
year will be a period of extraordinary
progress in which surprising expert
ences will come to the nation.
Political conditions appear to be
only hazily interpreted by astrolo-
gers, but they foresee difficult nc
cess for a presidential candidate
whose name is often mentioned.
Persons whose ~birthdate it is have
a rather unsettled year before them.
They should be careful of their
money and safeguard their health.
Children born on this day will be
clever, affectionate and trustworthy.
These subjects of Capricorn are gem
orally successful.
