CONGRESSMAN SMITH
FAVORS MERIDIAN

To letter from a Meridian man
in which was enclosed roster of our
soldier boys and request that our
town be recognized in the distribu-
tion of german war trophies. Con-
gressman Addison T.smith writes the
following letter in reply:
Washington, d. c., Feb. 19.
j am in receipt of yours of the 9Th,
with enclosure. am surprised at
the large number of soldiers who en-
tered the service from Meridian and
vicinity. / note the suggestion that
your town is entitled to a captured
german cannon as trophy and thor
oughly agree with you'll do not know
just what number of these guns viii
be brought over or how many Will be
allotted to our state, but I certainly
would be pleased if we could furnish
one for your splendid little city. When
the distribution is made you can rest
assured that I will keep your sug-
gstion in mind.

ROAD TO BE FIXED WHEN
CONDITION PERMITS WORK

There is talk that Meridian may
lose the state highway if the road is
not fixed pretty soon, and travel will
continue mile west before making
the turn, instead of going through
Meridian. My goodness! When the
state highway force is held up and
say they can't put plow or drag
on the road until it quits raining
and the mud dries. how is Meridian,
with smaller equipment, to help the
present condition of the road, es-
peeially for the mile through the
town, which is in bad shape we will
admit. All will say that the horrible
deep mud makes travel almost an
impossibility, but it should be re-
membered that this is something un-
usual, and that last year at this time
there was dry smooth road

He will receive a salary of $3.50 a

to accommodate the 10 veterans,
who are now quartered in the army

A. r. Estes of Meridian has been
honored with the appointment Of

counties for scab and other diseases.
He has his appointment from the
state sanitary board, through the
state veterinarian. Mr.. Estes mas al
ready taken UP the work and made
trip to the Snake river country this
week. 1t is needless to say that Mr.
Estes is qualified for the place, as he
has made study OF the sheep In
dustry for many years.

A test was made during the past
few months as to how high the price
of butter and eggs could go. Some
thought the sky was the limit but
suddenly the price of storage eggs
started to tumble. Butter reached
a price of Toe pound to the house
wife but just then. she resolved to
supplement the butter with some
thing else. Just what she did Is not
so evident but we do know that one
grocer in the city up the river, a few
weeks ago, was selling five pounds OF
oleomargarine to three pounds OF
butter and this to the family trade
who had never thought of putting a
substitute for butter on the table be-
fore. The moral is, the housewife
has way OF her own of bringing
prices down to where they ought to
be.

CHEESE IT ON THE
LATE EXCURSIONS.

Every once in while loop ex-
cursion goes around the Interurban
to inspect ereameries, or something,
and invariably they make their last
stop before home at the town of Mer-
idian. As the party is usually all in"
after strenuous day of sightseeing,
Meridian's only attraction is the big
slice of cheese, which comes in as a
long-felt want at this time of day.

There is well defined rumor in
Meridian that our fair city will not

the village board Monday evening.

A Meridian lady was asked the
other day how she liked the box oi

good explaining from the husband
1t seems the Meridian man on his re-

a large box of chocolates, nicely
wrapped, in beautiful box, and ex-
plicitly told to give them to the wife
Later the same relatives visited out
here and one of them inuocently
asked the question.

big load of hay being hauled thru

muscle to move the big load. UP from

in an unsuccessful effort TO have the
mountain in front move to the other
