Packing House By-Products.

The by-products in the packing
house industry may be divided into two
classes-the edible and the inedible.
The inedible constitute the external
covering Chair, horns, hoofs and hides),
some of the Offal, and the bones. From
these are prepared great variety of
substances, some of Which have de-
veloped into enormous Industries in
themselves, such as leather, soap glue
and fertilizer The last mentioned rep
resents the ultimate utilization of
packing house waste. For example,
in the manufacture of buttons, combs,
knife handles and spatulas from the
horns and hoofs of cattle and sheep
and the hoofs of hogs the waste re-
sulting from the preparation of these
articles was at one time thrown away.
but it has been found that by treating
such material with sulphuric acid the
nitrogen which it contains becomes
available as a fertilizer.

WAR COST WORLD 26O BILLION
Prominent British Economist Sees Pc
Rod of Great Trade Activity
Near.

LOndon.-Edgar Crammond, promi
nent British financial writer, estimates
the direct cost of the war to the allies
at $141, S00,000000 and to the central
European powers at S6S.375, 100000
He estimates the total cost of the war,
including indirect losses, at S26O,OOO,-
100000
He concludes that the fall in the
price of commodities and wages will
take place slowly and gradually.
The war has enormously increased
the power of production in Great Brit
ain, and he is convinced that this at
the present time is at least so per cent
over the production of 1913.
Through all the economic records of
the past, Mr.. Crammond says, it is
possible to trace an advance in the
standard of living for the masses con-
currently with an increase in the
amount of money in circulation and
a decline in the purchasing power of
money.
He predicts that the nations are on
the eve of a period of intense activity
in trade such as the world has never
known.

ing May Allison as the star will be
the attraction at the Kenworthydhe-
atre Wednesday only and is five-reel

and delightfully."- original situations.
Miss Allison is seen as young
girl who was supposed to have been

seventeen-the fact that she is not
the lost child develops later in the
play and leads to all manner of COM
plications which give Miss Allison
unusual opportunity for her versatile
talents. She is supported by cast
of notables headed by Darrell Foss,
who plays the part of Jack DENLY.
Others of the company are Clarence

players of the highest attainment,
who are we'll known in Metro pro-

The picture was adapted for the
screen by George D. Baker from the

Mary is particularly suited to May
Allison who plays it in a vivacious
and altogether winsome manner.

One often hears The expression,
"My child caught a severe cold which
developed into diptheria," when the
truth was that the cold had simply
left the little one particularly sus-
ceptible to the wandering diptheria
germ. If your child has cold when
diptheria is prevalent you should take
him out of school and keep him off
the street until fully recovered, as
there is hundred times more danger
of his taking diptheria when he has
cold When Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is given it quickly cures the

The unit located here has been
promised all of the equipment that it
needs for any branch of training that
it now has in it's course.
Lieut. Col Howard stated that one
of his most eager efforts was to es-
tablish a motor transport corps at one
of the schools of the northwest. This
would mean that there be a complete
course offered in motor mechanics.
The government will furnish all of
the tools, trucks and other necessities
for the carrying out of the plan. Ii
the University of Idaho were to be Sc
lected for this, all agricultural stu
dents would then have available
good course to help them in their gas
engine and motor work in practical
life. NV
Also there is proposed plan to es-
tablish in some school a thorough
course in signal work. This will in
volve the formation of a signal
corps equipped with wireless and
radio apparatus. Should Idaho have
this corps also it would afford good
education for all students interested
in electrical engineering work. The
signal work would be in advance to

"The next war is likely to be
biologists war where the vic

army or nation most successful
in inoculating its adversaries
with disease germs poured down
upon them from above.
"While this may be too hor-
rible even to contemplate now,
nevertheless it is a possibility
and even probability to be
reckoned with, and certainly it
should be most seriously consid-
cred before we begin to burden
ourselves with the inevitable
costliness of military training"
