BOISE AUTO PARK
GETS GOOD WORD

''The finest in the United States,
is the way John Summerfield o.
Charleston, w. Va, described Boise'
tourist park, according to the Idaho
Statesman.
Mr.. Summerfield's party, which
includes himself, Mrs. Nancy Work
man and daughter, Miss Vida, LEFT
their homes July 1.
From Minneapolis they Travelled
on the Yellowstone trail and entered
the. park at Cody entrance. In the
park they heard of Bosses tours,
camping grounds many different
times, according to Mr. Summer
field.
Roads are in good condition he
says. To Bull he awards the honor
of having the second best tourist
park in the country.
That Bosses park is not forgot
ten even after the tourist reaches
home is proven by the following
clipping which was taken from a
Lincoln, Neb., paper:
Mrs. George H. Loveland, who
has just returned from two months
visit in Idaho, Oregon and Washing
ton, cites number of places and
observations which are particularly
interesting to Lincoln. With the
talk of making Lincoln's tourist
grounds more attractive, Mrs. Love-
land gives AL interesting picture of
the one in Boise, Idaho, which might
we'll be taken for model at Ante
lope park.
"The automobile tourist camp in
Boise is in grassy, shaded park be-
side the Boise river. There are in
Vulnerable benches and tables scat
tered about and in the center open
space long clothes lines. One fairly
large building is the kitchen. 1t is
screened and Is equipped with suf-
ficient electric plates for twelve per-
sons to cook on at time, and along
the sides are sinks and drain boards
with faucets containing cold water
for drinking and hot water, piped
from the natural hot water springs
on the mountain just above the city,
for cooking and washing dishes. In
another building there is an electric
washer, tubs, tables, even baskets
of clothespins, ironing boards and
electric irons, and on the other side

and dressing rooms for men and for
women. A tourist coming in to this
camp can bath himself, wash, dry
and iron his clothes, cook his meals
and wash the dishes, and all that is
asked is rs cents a day per car, and
even this is not obligatory. The

UTILITIES COMMISSION
HEARS EXPRESS COMPANY

A hearing of the application of
the American Railway Express COM
pany for an order of this commission
authorizing and approving increases
in intrastate express rates to con-
form with increases allowed, or to be
allowed, by the interstate commerce
commission on intrastate express
rates, will be held at the office of
the commission in Boise, beginning
on September 10, 1920, at 10 o'clock
a. m. Any person interested may
appear at this hearing and cross-ex-
anime applicants witnesses or offer
evidence in opposition to the appli-
cation.
The interstate commerce commits
sion in it's decision rendered August
II, 1920, allowed the express COM
pany 121s per cent increase in
rates on interstate traffic, with the
exception of milk and cream and as
to those commodities permitted rates
equal to those contemporaneousl
applied by the railroad lines between
the same points on shipments by
freight: In arriving at this decision
the interstate commerce commission
did not take into consideration the
awards Of the United States railroad
labor board increasing wages to the
express company's employees, and
there is now pending before that
commission a supplemental applica-
ton for y additional increase in
rates on account of increased op-
Grating expenses occasioned by said
awards of the United States rail-
road labor board. It is expected
that decision on such application
will be rendered by the interstate
commerce commission prior to the
hearing before this commission.

100000 OF WHEAT
FOR EXPORT THIS YEAR
(By International News Service)

(By International News Service)
CHICAGO.-There will be $780,
100000 bushels of wheat for export
this year, or approximately the same
as last year, or approximately the
same as last year, according to fig
ures prepared by P. s. Goodman,
Chicago grain statistician.
This, Mr.. Goodman says, is on the
basis of 100000 bushels for
supplies for the United States and
minimum carry over of $4,000, 900
bushels. Requirements of Europe
and other importing countries last
year were 603, 100000 bushels, or
100000 bushels over the previous
year. Assuming that the require
ments this year are 100000, 900
bushels, Mr.. Goodman says the Unit
ed States and Canada can furnish
390,000,000 bushels, leaving 210,-
100000 to be furnished by other
countries.
India has $1,000, 900 bushels for
export, leaving 16O,000,000 bushels
to be furnished by Argentine and
Australia, both of which are report
ed to have exhausted their surplus.
It is stated by members of the Chi
cago board of trade that the out
come of the new crop in these coun-
tries will have an effect on wheat
prices ultimately. Prices in the
world open market have been sta
bilized to a considerable degree by
the law of supply and demand which
is governing dealing in wheat fu-
lures. Such dealing was resumed

BOY CHUMS FALL OUT
OVER PET COLLIE BOTH OWN

(By International News Seryice) !
BROOKLYN.-The quarrel of boy
chums over dog has presented to
the children's court a problem of
which the justice who will preside
may not be able to make "head or
tail" The question of who owns
the head and who owns the tail of
the animal is the basis of a charge
OF larceny placed against fifteen
year-old Raphael Unger by Harry
Kopp, a builder, father of Raphael's
former chum, Albert.
Neither boy claims ownership of
the dog. Both frankly say each is
entitled to half. They went so far
as to take out two licenses for the
collie, each holding one. The dog
takes turns staying with each one.
The chums fell out and each went
home, Raphael followed by the dog,
which knew it was Raphaels turn
to feed him. A few minutes later
Albert and his father and two DO
licemen appeared at Raphael's home
and demanded the dog. Raphael re-
fused to surrender him.

"But you don't own the collar and
the lock and the license tag l put on

in here" said Albert.
He never had a collar" retorted
Raphael.
A long argument ended with the
charge against Raphael of stealing
the dogs collar. The dog is still in

IMPORTANT 1920 CROPS
WILL EXCEED U. S. DEMAND
by International News Service)

by International News Service)
CHICAGO.-The annual crop re.
port of the Continental & CONNER.
cial National bank, which is COM
piled by hundreds of correspondents
throughout the American farming
region, says that production of i'm
pOrtant crops will exceed that OF
last season with the exception OF
wheat and that the aggregate pro-
duction will be in excess of domes-
tic demands.
There has in the last two months
been a complete reversal of the dis
nal forebodings that attended the
planting under climatic restrictions"
The report continues: Ideal condi-
lions have turned the prospect of a
partial failure into the prospect of
bountiful harvests and promise of
better returns in the crops that
come to harvest later in the sea-
son."
The report says the country can
spare 220,000,000 bushels of wheat,
Or the same as exported last season.
Proper distribution of the big
wheat crop is greatly aided by re-
sumption of dealing in wheat for
future delivery on the Chicago board
of trade after three years of gov
eminent fixed price. The law of
supply and demand, the dominating
influence in the world open mar
ket, has a stabilizing effect on the
prices.
Comparisons of the leading crops
for two years, the figures of last year
being the official returns, are given
as follows:

JOBS AND POSITIONS

In our advertising columns this
week we are giving space to the ap,
peal of a Salt Lake concern that has
use for young men who want Jobs
rather than positions" 1t is head
ed, 1--WE Are Looking for Young
Men," and then outlines in a general
way the kind" of young men de-
sired.
We are glad to publish it for the
benefit of the young men of this
community who desire to get in
touch with concern that will APP
preciate intelligence, integrity and
industry, and that will reward fideli-
ty and faithfulness.
It is another of those splendid
chances for the young man who is
willing to apply himself to the work
he undertakes that he may in time
become an indispensable factor in
big establishment.
With increasing frequency we
hear the question:
What has become Of the earnest
young person who wanted job and
was content to keep pegging away
for year or two in order to learn
a business?
There was a time when a young
man was happy to get job.
There was time when young
person was indentured for year or
two or three to learn business or
trade.
F. w. Woolworth, the greatest re-
tail merchant the world has ever
had, worked six months for no pay
for the privilege of learning enough
about the retail trade to command
salary.
Today the first idea of the appli-
cant for employment is as to how
much money he or she will get. 1t
does not matter whether he or she
is fit or wholly unfit. If unfit, the
applicant wants to be paid for the
period of training. Then, or before
arriving at a stage of usefulness,
there is a request for more pay.
In one day there appeared three
paragraphs in one New York news
paper that are Illuminating. Here
they are:
"a stenographer in dry goods
store was paid SIS a week when
she took the job of a soldier two
years ago wanted $35 week recent
ly. Now she is looking for a po-
sition."
"a girl who worked in selling
agency where ginghams are han
died was asked to wear a bingham
dress during bingham sale week"
She appeared in satin skirt and
georgette waist Now she is look
ing for a position"
"a dry goods commission house
hired a boy as messenger two months
ago at $40 a week. A month later
his pay was raised to $12 week.
A few days later he demanded SIS a
week. Now he too is looking for
position"
And so it goes in almost every city
and town. Young people with but
an apprentice knowledge Of bust
ness expect the wages of expert and
workmen. They de-
mand pay not for what they DO, but
for the time they idle away.-Ex-
change.
