secret Of his business success.
1T was the faith I had in the
possibilities of this business, he
replied

SOUND BUSINESS METHODS

The keynote of President Hard.
ing's inaugural was it's emphasis
on sane and sound business meth.
,ods as the only means by which
the disturbed condition of business
can be relieved This may not sound
so Immediately attractive as prom.
iscs Of more illusory kind. There
are many public men who will tell
YOU off hand Just how to cure all
social wrongs. But il YOU placed
such men in power, they would in,
crease taxation bv their costly
schemes. they would advance the
cost of living for everyone by more
expensive production, they would
tie up business by measures that
check enterprise.
In a number of paragraphs Of his
inaugural address, Mr.. Harding laid
emphasis upon such items as the
following, as the means for re-
turn to prosperity:
l. Administrative efficiency
2. Adequate credit.
8. Lightened tax burdens.
4 Efforts to solve agricultural
production problems.
5. No unnecessary interference
with business by government.
6 National and personal economy
I Cooperation between labor
and capital, etc
A program of this kind will not
set the galleries to shouting. There
is nothing in it to rouse class pre-.
iudice and win the favor Of factions.
But it is only through honest work
done along these lines that you can
pnt the community on good bas-
is.
The principal thing for the gov
crnment to do in times like these
is to stop wasting the peoples mon
cy and to pass laws encouraging
business. giving producers conf
dence to go ahead in a large way.
Then the people must do the rest
by thrift and hard work There Is
no short cut and no royal road back
to normal times. It is infinitely
better to have president who re.
alizes these truths. than to have
one who deludes the people with
illusOry hopes that he can't fulfil.

value of advertising will find an in

the purchases made of these great
concerns or in those made of the

concern can get people to send

Holly can go on to much larger
sales, by telling its home folks and
its neighbors what it has to offer.

PAUL MAKES HEADWAY
In LAND OFFICE FIGHT

According to dispatch from WASH
ington, the fight to secure the remov-
al of the HALEY land office to Paul,
which is being waged by w. c. Larsen
of the latter town, is apparently max
ing progress.
The proposition now has been adj
vanced that Lemhi, Custer and Butte
counties be taken from the present
HALEY land district and be made a
part of the Blackfoot district, because
settlers in those counties would find IT
more convenient to go to Blackfoot
than to location further west in the
Snake river valley.
1t is also proposed that the part OF
Valley county which is now in the
HALEY district shall be transferred Il
the Boise district, as Boise is easier
F., of access than either HALEY or Paul
If the transfer is later ordered
from HALEY to Paul, these changes
in district boundaries likely will h'
made.

NO ONE TYPE OF ROAD BEST;
TRAFFIC NEEDS DIFFER MUCH

No effort has been made to encour-
age the construction of any particular
type of road in the Federal-aid pro-
iects administered by the Bureau OF
Roads Of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture. The legal re-
ouirements of the roads shall be sub
stantial in character" has not been IN
terpreted to mean that only the most
expensive types of road should be
built. 1t has been recognized that the
heavy and expensive construction
which is necessary in New York, Mas
sachusetts, and Pennsylvania is not
suitable or warranted for the less ex-
acting traffic of Nevada, Idaho and
the Dakotas.
I There is suitable type OF road for
every type of traffic. Granite blocks
are best around wharves and freight
depots; country thoroughfares need
to be better than rural side roads.
lightly travelled. A number of other
considerations have Influenced the
choice of types in many cases. II is
frequently found that suitable local
materials may cost less than better
materials imported from distance
