QUOTA OF DISTRICT
IS FAR IN ARREARS
WESTERN STATES LAG BEHIND
WITH w. S. S. SUB
SCRIPTIONS.

SAN FRANCISCO-During the
first eight months of 1919 the people
of the Twelfth Federal Reserve dis
trict embracing the state Of Washing
ton, California, Oregon, Idaho, Utah,
Navada, part of Arizona and the ter,
ritories of Hawaii and Alaska, saved
sos, 255.7s by the purchase of Thrift
and War Savings Stamps, according
to report just issued by the War
Loan organization. High prices were
hit just that hard" said Robert E.
Smith, director of the organization,
"as every dollar saved helps bring
down prices"
The amount saved, however, the re-
port shows, is only 1879 per cert of the
quota asked to date by the govern
ment from residents of the Twelfth
district. At the beginning of the year
the treasury department. fixed quota
of ten dollars per capita as sufficient
to help the government meet its war
debts. The ten dollar quota is just
half the per capita quota asked in
1918.
THE people are not standing up to
their responsibilities in this district" =
said c. A. Farnsworth, associate di-
rector of the War Loan organization.
"The government needs this money
just as much now as it did during the
war and is depending upon every man,
woman and child in the district to
lend it ten dollars before the end OF
the year. OF course there are indi-
gents in the west who haven't ten
dollars TO, lend their country and
there are others who have the ten
dollars who aren't enough American
to lend it to their country. Conse-
quently real Americans must inves,
more than their quota if the west is
to save its face before the rest OF the
country"
Would Jolt H. C. L.
High prices" the report points
out, would be struck serious blow
if the people of the west would only

2ooo LABoRERs SUPPLIED

In the last five months, nearly $500
applications for the services of labor
ers have been registered with the
labor office of the Twin Falls county
farm bureau, of which about 1000
were supplied. In the same period,
between $500 and 1000 applications
uere made for work on farms and at
construction work.
ADDS $1,000, 600 TO CROPS.
An increase. Of. 81, 100000 in the
value of the Twin Falls irrigated
wheat crop is estimated by County
Agent Charles H. Bohrer to be the
result of the introduction of pure
Dicklow seed. His estimate is that
there has been an increase of five
bushels to the acre on 100000 acres
but he says some of the elevator men
have placed the increase at 10 bushels
POISON SAVES $4,000.
Approximately $4,000 is thus far
reported by Bonner county farmers to
have been saved by the campaign fol
poisoning rodents. These reports arc
from about two-thirds of the men who
used the poison which was supplied
nv the farm bureau. The net saving
this year was about 81 per acre fol
the land poisoned and about 500 pei
acre for the men reporting.

HENRY FORD SAYS HE WANTS TO EMPLOY
 CRIPPLED SOLDIERS

DETROIT, June 5.-In an inter- view at Mt. Clemens, Mich, Henry Ford said he wants to employ 1000 American doughboys in the next 24 hours. The men. must be among those who were hiaimed or crippled in the war. Mr Ford says: "I will undertake to employ all the men who were crippled while serving with the American forces. I will employ 1000 immediately and as many as 5000 others as soon as possible" " He said there was netting of a charitable or philanthrople nature in his offer. He described it as a "pure business proposition" ard said: we are prosperous mainly because we make those about us prosperous. We can take these maimed soldiers Ind make them prosperous for we will give them good wages" Crrin5 one of his strolls in the farming dis trict of Mt. Clemens, Mr. Ford was talking with local farmer about farming machinery. After MT. Ford left the farmer said: That man knows an awful lot about farming and machinery. wish I knew who he was, I need a darned slick man ager like him."
