SEES ADVERTISING
AS JOBLESS CURE.
hahSin would Stimulate Business
Revival by Move to Induce
Buying.

An advertising revival as means
toward business Improvement that
would solve the unemployment prob
lem was suggested by William II.
RanBin, of New York and Chicago
LII letter to Secretary of Labor
Davis. of President Harding"s unem-
ployment conference, made public
last night.
MIR. Rankin proposed the initiation
OF buying movement through ad-
vertsing that will stimulate tho
whole business fabric of the nation.
and, suggested that the conference
call upon men familiar with advertis-
ing and its possibilities to develop
this suggestion.
Cities War Drive Success.
Mr.. Rankin pointed out the vast re-
suits obtained throughout the war
period by advertising campaigns
directed toward solving the problems
which confronted the government.
and said:
Il believe advertising can help Just
as much now, in this unemployment
problem, as it did in any of the cam
paign exploited during the war. and
that is particularly true in regard to
the matter of price reduction.
Would Stimulate Buying.
Il happen to know that the con-
, Germs that let the way in price re-
duction are today six months ahead
OF those who have not, and 1 also
know that price reduction has stimu-
lated buying and that advertising is
the only way TO let the people know
who're they can now buy goods at
pro'var prices and on a basis where
the long margin of profit has been
cut down to fair margain.
II believe advertising may be used
not only to convince the public thH'
they should buy products that are
now being advertised at a fair price.
tut can also be used to convince the
manufacturers that they should not
only reduce their prices. but use adj
vertising space 10 ct the public

volunteered a short talk, stating to be-

the nonpartisan league and that we
could tell the people of Bonners Ferry
that he said so if we wanted to. He
took slam at the pool halls and asked
what our officers are doing when the
pool rooms are running in defiance of
the law with young boys as patrons

GOOD GAMES ARE SCHEDULED
Bonners Ferry Team VIII Play Three
Games on Home Diamond,

Manager w. c. Reid, of the Bonners
Ferry baseball club, has arranged for
three ball games on the Bonners Ferry
diamond for this month. The Spokane
Dry Goods Co. baseball team, of Spo-
kane, will play here on Sunday, July

one of the Spokane city league and SO
far this season ii has won a large per-
centage of the games it has played.
Manager Reid states that it is very
expensive to bring this team here but
he feels confident. that the baseball
fans will turn out in such numbers as
to warrant bringing the best teams In
the country to play in Bonners Ferry.
If il is possible to make enough from
the gate receipts to pay expenses, 9TH
er first-class teams will be brought in
On Sunday, July "a, the Priest River
team will play on the local diamond
probably come here strengthened by
the addition of one or two Spokane
players.
The Newport, Wash, baseball nine
will play in Bonners Ferry on Sun
day, July 81 This team has a fine
record of games won and it said to be
a fast aggregation.
Last Sunday the local team played
against the Creston team on the Cres-
ton diamond, winning the game by
score. of IL to a. The game was de-
void of any sensational plays and from
the start there was no chance for the
home team to lose About $50 Bonners
Ferry people motored to Creston to
see the game.

Plans for the proposed new bridge
are on file in the office of District En-
gineer Keene, at Missoula, and call for
bridge to be constructed with two
steel spans of 210 feet each and one
timber trestle approach of 140 feet.
The principal items of work are ap-
proximately as follows 277, 300 pounds
of steel in superstructure: 730 cubic
yards of class "B" concrete in super-
structure; $50 L. F. bridge decking:

have had to depend upon inadequate
ferryboat service in crossing the Koo-

construction of the new bridge will
have great deal to do towards the
rapid development of the Leonia dis
trict inasmuch as the bridge will pro-
vide a means of getting timber and
farm products to the market The
new bridge will also save money to
both Lincoln and Boundary county as

away with ferryboat and the expense
of maintaining the service. which

NAPLES THURSDAY NIGHT
BURIED SUNDAY
HAD BEEN in POOR HEALTH
Boy Companion in Cabin Did Not Hear
the Fatal Shot.

Ed Carley, a man of about So years
of age, committed suicide last Thurs
day night, near Naples, using a 25-35
Winchester rifle to send a bullet
through his head
A fifteen year old lad by the name
of Woods was sleeping in the cabin
with Carley but did not hear the re-
port of the shot and knew nothing of
the affair until he woke in the morn
ing to find Carley's body lying on his
bunk. Young Woods Immediately went
to Naples, distance of about two
miles and sent word to the county of
ncials. Coroner Saunders, County At
torney Wilson, Deputy Sheriff Gala
han and Undertaken Stookey went to
Naples to investigate and to bring the
body here.
The funeral was held Sunday. The
deceased is supposed to have a niece
living in Spokane but to-date Mr.
Stookey has been unable to locate any
relatives
Coroner Saunders states that there
is no doubt but that Carley met death
at his own hands. The deed was COM
mitted in the Chris Howe cabin on
Trout creek, east, of Naples, where
CAREY mad been staying for a few
weeks with the Woods brothers.
Thursday night he loaded the Win
chester rifle. which he had borrowed
a day or so previously, remarking to

night which had been eating food in
the cabin.
When Coroner Saunders visited the
cabin he found Carley lying on his
bunk, the rifle tightly gripped in his
hand Carley had evidently sat up in
bed. holding the rifle in his left hand
and pulled the trigger with the toe of
his right foot. The bullet entered un-
der his chin and crashed through the
left side of his head
Carley has lived in this district o
of years and followed woods
work. 1t is said that he worked as a
straw boss last winter in one of the
A. c. White camps and that a few
years ago he had camp near Ural.

ing from stomach trouble for some
time and it is believed that despond-

new COUNTY
AGENT HERE

w. Kjosness, county agent leader for
the ten northern counties, with head
quarters at MOSCOW, Idaho, and r. N.
Irving, of Rupert, Idaho, arrived here
Tuesday, Mr.. Irving coming to take
charge of the county agent work in
Boundary county for a month or six
weeks when he will be succeeded by
r. e. Alexander, who has engaged as
county agent here but who will not be
able to leave his work in Elmore coun-
ty, Idaho, until the 18th of August.
Mr.. Kjosness will remain here sew
eral days to assist Mr.. Irving in his
work and when County Agent Alexan-
der arrives Mr. Irving will remain with
him week or two so that he can read
lily proceed with work started or
planned.
Mr.. Alexander is coming to Bound
airy county very highly recommended
both by County Agent Leader Kjos-
ness and by the people of Elmore
county where he has worked for sew
eral years past. MIR. Alexander was
here several weeks ago and was so
well pleased with the conditions here
that he asked for the transfer.
County agent work in this county
should have started several months
ago but until the present time it has
been impossible to secure man for
the work although the salary, paid by
the county and state combined
amounts to $4,000. Mr.. Ktosness states
that he considers Boundary county to
be very fortunate in securing the SER
vices of Mr.. Alexander and that he
has no doubt but that the new county
agent will save the farmers many
times the amount of his salary and
that next year there will be even more
of a demand for the services of a
county agent than there was this year.

lean territory.
David Thompson Found 1t.
David Thompson, one of that bodv
of early and daring explorers of the
northwest, discovered the Kootenai
river the fore part of the last century.
His descriptions of its wilderness and
beauty, of its animal life led others
of his school into the region. 1t was
not long ere the great Hudson Bay
company had its usual string of trad
ing posts along the Kootenai Until
very recently one of those old log
structures stood in a good state of
preservation at Bonners Ferry, the
most northerly town of size in the
state.
Great Drawback to Valley.
In spite of its poetic magnificence
and beauty, the Kootenai river is a
most recalcitrant stream. The great
mountain peaks amongst which it rises
are perpetually snow covered. The
warmth of spring and summer suns
causes the snow to melt and the flow
often is too heavy and sudden for the
river channel. The consequences are
the valley of the Kootenai, particularly
those portions in Idaho and British
Columbia, become inundated, crops up
rooted and homes destroyed.
Rich as Valley of Nile.
1t has been estimated that there are
of these overflow Kootenai lands in
our state, all in Boundary county.
alone, more than one hundred thou
sand acres. These periodic overflows .
have made from time immemorial
desimentary soil throughout the valley
of incalculable fertility. In point of
productivity 1t is a veritable valley of
the Nile
There is, however this awful uncer-
tainty of submergence which makes
the hazard too great for all but the
most venturesome farmer or rancher.
1t is to conceive and adopt some
feasible plan of cooperation for the
removal of this hazard that Governor
Davis and Mr. Swendsen, our rec1ama-
ton commissioner, were appointed by
President Harding to Join the Cana
dian commissioners within the next
