WHO WILL PAY TAXES.

The publicity bureau for the feder
al farm loan system is sending pub
fishers literature relative to the farm
loan act. The farm loan banks were
created to loan money to small Dor
rowers and the joint stock land banks
were to loan money to the large Dor
rowers, the theory of the law is al
right if one favors class legislation.
The federal land banks and joint
stock land banks issue bonds against
farm mortgages.
These bonds are tax-exempt in or
der that money may be loaned at less
than current rates of interest. The
money lost by the government be-
cause Of tax exemption on this class
of securities must be made up by a
higher rate of taxation on the gen
eral public.
Already $3sO,OOOOOO of tax exempt
bonds have been issued under thi:
system. Critics of the system claim
that the farm loan act would los'
none Of its valuable features by mas
ing these bonds taxable. AS it j.
now the rich can escape taxation b,
investing in these securities.
Extending the theory of the farm
loan act, We might just as we'll hav,
a manufa cturers loan act or ran
road loan act or a householders LOAF
act tax exempt bonds to furnish thu
money. Where would such polio,
lead to? Somebody has to pay tn
taxes to run the government.
If we keep on exempting the gov
eminent issues of bonds from taxa
ton, the poor man who does not owl
any of these bonds will be payin.
much more than his share Of the ia:
burden of the country.
The man who borrows the mono.
should pay the cost of loaning TIL
money, not the general tax payer a
is now the case with tax exempt farm
loan bonds.

WEATHER AND BUSINESS

Weather as a potent factor in bust
ness was never better exemplified
than it was here during the 10 days
proceeding Christmas. Idaho's cold
est December brought cold snap
that lasted until only four shopping
days remained until Christmas. Dur
ing that time, in spite of the plenti-
tude of money and the stimulus of 4
holiday atmosphere, business was al
most at a standstill. Merchants who
had employed extra help were wait
ing for the trade that didn't come.
In the search for reasons for the phe-
nomenon. the fact that taxes became
due week earlier than ever before
in history and so short time before
the holidays was generally hit upon.
Then the weather broke, mild days
followed each other consistently,
Sales in every conceivable line then
jumped by leaps and bounds until it
was freely stated by several repres-
entative business men that never in
the history of Caldwell has so much
business been done as during the four
mild shopping days prior to Christ
mas.
The full flood of the expected bust
ness was liberated and the greatest
era of buying that Caldwell mer-
chants ever experienced resulted.
1t is possible that an equivalent

Agriculture can never become well
established and permanent in a re-
gion until some cropping system
established The hit and miss meth
cd of putting in crops will work for
a while on new land, but sooner or
later a time will come when a plant
ing system must be adopted by all
who expect to make a success in
farming. Continue cropping will in
time lead to ruin.
Among the reasons for planted
rotation system OF cropping the tol-
lowing may be mentioned. |. Vari-
Gus crops used different proportions
of the plant foods. 2. Crops do not
all feed at the same depth in the soil.
g. The legume crops store nitrogen
which improve the soil for other
crops. 4. The control of the plant
diseases, insect pests, and weed is i'm
possible without changing crops. 5.
Man labor, horse labor, machinery,
and irrigation water may be used
more economically if well planned
cropping system is followed year aft
er year.
A cropping system must be planned
for each farm separately. No two
farms are exactly alike in their re-
quirements. This makes it >impossl-
BILE to give a system that will fit in
all cases. A number of principles
can, however, always be kept in mina
in planning rotation. These Will hell

general principles to keep in mind
are the following: l. Raise abou

that diseases in pests and weeds car

to conform to all of these principle
in any rotation, but they will serve a

The kind of system to plan will
be affected by the crops that can b

POTENTIAL PRESIDENTS.

Probably never at this early stage OF
the game have we been called upon to
applaud SO frequently as succeeding

are held next summer, many more Will
be added.
So far avowed candidates have
come largely from Republican ranks,
Lowden, Wood. Coolidge, Poindex>
ter, Hiram Johnson and Harding are
already definitely to the fore with
others whose campaign needs only a
match to set it going. OF these Ma
jor General Leonard Wood appears
to lead the field just new. Indeed,
today, he offers the best bet for the
next White House occupant.
While the Rebuplicans are gloryins
in their horde of acceptable men, the
Democrats are not so much to the
front and seem rather short of real
presidential material. Everythins
hinges on Woodrow Wilson. Whether
he is to be candidate, no one has
an mixing. But waning health and a
third term are handicaps he undoubt-
edly will not endeavor to sufmount.
But until that particular die is cast
his multitude seemingly will take ne
steps. Those whose feet are said tc
be itching include McAdoo, Palmer
Baker, Chaplain" Daniels and ever
Champ Clark. And in both partie.
there are others.
