residence it will not be the fault of
their friends, who have neglected
nothing that would attract attention
to the modest and pretty residence
that has been selected and furnished
for the bride. If there is a space in
the front yard or on the front of the
house where a sign telling the world
the "newlyweds live here" could be
placed and it is unoccupied by some
such sign, the friends have overlooked
it and will remedy the defect. can,

of the many signs that decorate the

ADVANCING LAND VALUES.


Today the II. H. Simpson farm
vhich he bought from r. r. Holland
ess than six months ago for the
ighest price paid for Latah county
arm up to that time-$150 per acre
was sold for SIZE per acre and Mr.
simpson had taken $4,000 worth OF
rop off of the land.
"Harry sold it a year too soon. He
bOuld get 5000 per acre for II if he
had held it another year." said a La
tan county pioneer who has lived
here 80 years and knows the actual
producing value of farm lands here,
when he heard of the deal.
Yet six months ago people thought
Mr.. Simpson had paid too much for the
and and it was regarded by many
hs an extravagant price. He cleared
k70OO on the deal in six months and
he purchaser is believed to have made
b good buy.
This farm is on the first of the new
highways to be built in Latah coun-
ty. The highway has not been COM
pleted yet 1t is only about half done,
. yet this farm has twice set a new
high record in six months, or since
|4he new highway which runs along
one entire side of it, was definitely
located
Advocates of better roads were
called "crazy' last spring when they
stated that the building of a good sys-
tenn of highways would increase the
value of farm land along these roads
from S. to $25 per acre. Their state
ments have been indicated. We will |
zee 5000 per acre paid for farm land
along these highways inside of a year
is prediction made by men of sound !
judgment.
But the increase in land values is
not due exclusively to the new high
ways. 1t is due largely to the fact
that people have begun to realize that
farm land that will produce such
crops as this land produces every
year. is worth more money than it has
been bringing in the past.

Upon a Noble Purpose

formed experiment upon a noble

were features of the league cove
nant which las an American" he
never could accept.
Creating not a league of peace
but an alliance embracing many
provisions for war" the covenant
in it's present form, he asserted,
would kill the Monroe Doctrine,
nullify any possibility of withdrawal
from membership, impair the sover-
eign power of deciding domestic
questions, and plunge the United
