PURITY CREAMERY IS
NEARING COMPLETION

Work on the Purity Creamery
which is under construction on wes1
Sixth street, on spur of the N. P
railway, by Wood & Hamer, prOprie
tors of the BOn-Ton, is progressing
rapidly and the owners expect to have
the plant installed and in operation
shortly after the first of November
The engine and boiler hav been pla-
ced in the basement and the creamery
equipment and cooling apparatus will
be installed in the ground floor. A
large pasteurizer, a giant ice cream
freezer and a churn with 500 pounds
capacity, are part of the equipment.
From this churn will be made the
'Purity Brand" butter which the firm
will market.
The plans call for two large rooms
to be held at zero degree of temper
ature for ice cream and one room for
sweet cream, with the temperature
40 degrees for milk and cream and
still another, with the temperature at
zero for butter storage. There will
be a room 45 feet square used for
storing eggs, cold storage room for
eggs being badly needed in the city
This will enable local dealers to store
thir eggs here to supply the winter
trade. The owners Of the new cream
ry will also be in the market for
eggs, as we'll as for milk and cream.
The plant is being installed at con-
expense and is but another
proof of confidence in MOscOw's fu-

Twin Falls, Idaho, Oct. 20--The
prosecution closed this afternoon in
the case of the state against LYDIA
Meyer Southard, now in the fourth
week, and beginning tomorrow the
evidence Of the defense will be laid
before the jury. Mrs. Southard. not
withstanding the fact that she stands
accused of the murder OF four bus
bands and a brother-in-law, shows
little interest in the proceedings.
Hour after hour from her seat with
her attorneys she glances unconcern-
edly about and listens to stories by
witnesses. During recess her manner
changes. She converses with her hus-
band and her attorneys and frequent
ly laughs quietly.

when Mr.. and Mrs. All Sing Apo
young Chinese, paid for their honol
with their lives in a suicide pact in
which Apo shot his wife twice and
then killed himself at their home
police investigation of the matter re-
vealed.
A letter written by Mrs. Apo just
before the murder and suicide fur
nished the police with the clue to the
tragedy. The letter, written to Mrs.
Apo's sister, was introduced at the
cOroner's inquest. 1t revealed the at
tachment of Mrs. Apo for another
man, the authorities stated. Apo had
discovered this and was about to
separate from his wife, according to
the letter. They met to seek better
way out Of the trouble.
The letter explained that husband
and wife had agreed upon death as
the best solution. Their prepa1 ations
were made calmly and without hurry,
the letter said. Apo obtained pcr-
nit to purchase pistol, explaining
that he needed it to protect his home.
His wife wrote the letter, explaining
the motive for the tragedy that was
about to transpire. The two shut
themselves up in the house. The
next day the bodies were discovered.

NEED MINISTRY OF
FRIENDSHIP MART
HENRY STEAD SEES ILLOGICAL
EFFORT OF NATIONS OP-
POSING WAR.

Honolulu, T. H., Oct. 21-While all
the great nations are spending huge
sums preparing for war, not one is
spending a cent in attempting to
make the war they fear impossible,
Henry Stead, editor of Stead's Review
of Melbourne, Australia, declared in
an address here today before the
Press Congress of the World.
Millions of dollars are spent on
building gigantic super-dreadnaughts
which will be obsolete in five years.
but not one dollar is set aside with
the object of promoting better re-
lations between the nations, getting
them to know each other better, thus
making war less likely he said.
What is needed is every country is
la Ministry of Friendship in charge of
ia man whose duty it should be to ap-
ply the grease of truth to the inter
national machinery when the friction
between it's parts becomes acute. We
have secretaries of state, for war, for
the navy, ministers of defense. I'M
mensely complicated diplomatic SER
vices we also have whose nominal
duty it is to work for peace but who,
alas, are much more concerned in
finding out the latest devices other
nations have adopted in their armies
and navies than they are in smoothing
away these little irritations which so
quickly give cause for war.
1--WE are, think all seized with the
fact that wars are almost always due
to misunderstanding which, had time
permitted could have ben cleared up.
But while the machinery for making
war is always well oiled, efficient and
up to date, no special machinery for
preserving peace exists at all. 1t
seems to me that we might we'll work
for the setting up of such machinery
to run campaign of truth to counter
act the wild and foolish rumors which
are at present furnishing fuel for
Misunderstanding and mutual dis
trust.
while I think it is the duty of
governments to Systematically work
for peace, it will be difficult to bring
them to realization of that fact.

among ourselves to counteract these
lies and rumors which work so much
mischief in our relations with other

M0sCOW's FIRE CHIEF
ISSUES PUBLIC Statement
To the Citizens of Moscow !:

To the Citizens Of Moscow:
The use of the fire truck for the
purpose of advertising a Moving Pic
ture Show on the 18th and 18th o1
October, at the KenwOrthy Theatre
seems to be subject of considerable
~citicism on the part of several of our
citizens
Abut thirty cents worth of gasoline
was spent for the purpose of adver-
tising the show. The Fire Department
had a 25 per cent interest in all re-
sceipts taken in at the show and the
partment is S44.00 ahead on the deal
All of this money will be spent for the
benefit of Moscow. We are now try
ing to get enough money to buy more
coats for members of the Fire Depart
ment and this money will be used for
that purpose
The citizens of Moscow should real
ize that the Fire Department is al
ways in need of funds and the tax
payers should be grateful to it's mem
bers for making an effort to raise
money without asking the city There
was no rivalry in the matter as the
Liberty Theatre encouraged us to go
ahead and they expect to give us the
same consideration at a later period
that the Kenworthy Theatre gave US.
AS Chief of the Fire Department I
have made the above explanation in
order to stop unnecessary gossip and
criticism on the streets by those who
have never contributed one cent to
the Fire Department
Yours very truly,
CARL SMITH,
Chief of Moscow Fire Department.

cnstruct in cooperation with highway
district No. 2 mile and half of
county road to connect up with the
Little Potlatch county highway. 1t is
understood that the commissioners of
the highway district have practically
agreed to cooperate with the county.
The road forms an outlet for a
number of farmers in the Little Pot
latch district, connecting up the
Cameron place and the Little Potlatch
road. The road has been surveyed
and the right of way order will be
ordered in the near future.
Lee Reeder, w. T. Cameron and

MOSCOW FARMERS ARE
HOLDING WHEAT CROP
ESTIMATED THAT 50 PER CENT
OF CROP STILL In HANDS
OF GROWERS

1t will probably be surprise to
many persons to learn that not more
than 40 per cent of the 1921 wheat
crop in the district tributary to Mos
COW has been sold, leaving approx
mately so per cent of the crop yet
to be realized upon by the farmers.
This, however, is the condition, as
estimated by local banking institu
tlons, and by grain dealers. George
SEWERS, manager of the Moscow Far
mers Union, when seen by a Star
Mirror representative, gave it as his
opinion that the condition in the Mos
cow territory is different from many
localities, the selling having been
much heavier in other places in nor
thern Idaho and eastern Washington.
Many farmers in the Moscow territory
are in position to hold and are of
the opinion that the price is not like
ly to be much lower than that quoted
now, and may advance. Some of the
wheat held by the farmers has been
shipped to terminal points for stor-
age.
2 Notwithstanding the fact that the
bulk of the wheat crop is yet to be
realized upon, bank deposits are hold
ing up and business conditions are
good in Moscow. With the money yet
to come into the hands of the growers
from so per cent of a normal wheat
yield in the territory, Moscow and the
tributary district will not feel the
pinch of close times In fact condi-
tions should be good throughout the !
year.
The ability of the Moscow farmers
to hold their wheat, and the ability
Of the banking institutions to supply !
all proper demands for money, speaks
we'll for the healthy condition of this
territory and is evidence that discre-
tion was exercised by the great ma
iority during the period Of inflated
values, there being but little specula-
ion here as compared with many
places. AS a result Moscow is enjoy
ng condition of healthy prosperity
while so many places are feeling the
1inch of the deflation' period.
The price quoted for wheat today on
he local market is 80 cents for club
Ind 78 for red This is within one
,ent of the lowest quotations for the
ear.
