kindness of Miss Esther Hood. Her
donation consists of a 32-volume set
of Science books, 32-volume set of
the Worlds Best Histories and 20
miscellaneous volumes. The school
is fortunate indeed in receiving such
gift as the library needed strength
ening along these lines.

bekah lodge here last Tuesday even

commissioners at their meeting on
Monday next. The county treasurer,
the county auditor, and the county
assessor reports are aids in making
up the 1922 budget, and the tax
levies. The commissioners have quite
a task before them but as the original

the state board of equalization the
increase will have bearing on the
taxes. 1t is hoped to dispose of the
surplus road machinery and equip /
ment to some Of the highway dis
tricts. The delinquent certificates
will also be disposed of.

mony of marriage in his office for

MISSING LINK ROAD
NATTER ON HIGHWAYS
COMMERCIAL BODIES WAIT ON
COMMISSIONERS -MORSCHECK
MAINTAINS HIS STAND,

With President George Morschecb
given a denial of his statements he
fore the Moscow chamber of com
merce by ]. B. Sanborn, one of the
commissioners in Whitman county
Washington, regarding the missing
link, and the social road committee
of Lewiston and a commercial club
committee from the Lewiston cham
Der trying for a settlement of the
controversy with the Whitman coun-
ty board, the Moscow chamber is en-
deavoring to bring the matter of
building an all-Idaho section in the
Hatwai canyon before the Idaho state
highway board, in order to secure
state aid on the project.
The Genesee News has this to say
regarding Sanborn's statement: "Ac-
cOrding to a statement made by J. B.
SanbOrn, one of the county COM
missioners Of Whitman county, there
is no truth in the statements made by
Geo. Morscheck and others who had
visited the Whitman commissioners in
regard to the missing link" of high
way between Genesee and Lewiston
and that the statements that they had
refused to build the road is not found
ed on "real facts"
There are those who would like to
know just what the Whitman commits
sioners did mean, then, when they
made the statement that they had no
money, no rock crusher, and did not
know when they could build the link, |
after making the statement that they
could not accept the proposition made
by Mr.. Morscheck that if they did not |
have the money to build it, Genesee
and Lewiston would either build it or
furnish the money with which to
build the link, and yet they refused to
take any action in the matter"
But all's well that ends we'll as the (
report from Lewiston shows:
The special road committee on the Z
missing link" of the north and south
highway went to Colfax on Friday
and attended meeting of the Whit
man county board Of commissioners.
A satisfactory conference was held
and negotiations are now in progress
looking to a permanent settlement of
he question. The committee included
Messrs E. A. White and Frank
Thompson of the Lewiston highway
and Messrs. r. ]. II
|enks, Lloyd Harris, J. E. Kincaid ]
md A. A. Seaborg, of the Lewiston
Commercial clubs road committee. ]

JUL|AETTA WATERMELON
DAY IS ADVOCATED

One of the best evidences of supe-
rior quality and flavor is the fact that
other less favored districts and some
unscruplous retailers have forced the
Juliatta watermelon growers to brand
their product. AS matter of fact
Juliaetta melons are SO rich in flavor
and sugar content that the consuming
public, once it gets taste of these
juicy offerings, will have no other,
and to protect their product some
Juliaetta watermelon growers to brand
branding their product with the word
"Juliaetta" in large letters. 1t seems
that here in the southeastern corner
Of our county Dame Nature has pro-
vided in exact proportions of soil,
moisture and climatic conditions for
the growing of superior water
melon, and it should be a matter of
county pride in which all the people
Of Latah county should take notice,
that it is home product, a home in
dustry, and one we should help boost.
It means as much to us here in Mos
COW as does Rocky Ford cantaloupes
or Greely, Colorado, potatoes to their
respective sections, and it is a blind
person who fails to grasp the big
hess OF CnlS industry, once we nave
established demand that will con-
sumo all the melons every acre of
Juliaetta soil will grow. BY a little
we'll directed publicity and personal
boosting we can soon put Latah
county in the forefront as producer
of famous watermelons, and SO extend
our market that it will tax the last
acre of Juliaetta to supply it. Mil
ton, Oregon, for many years adver-
tised her strawberries by an annual
day, when everybody was
reminded of Milton's chief product.
Why not have Juliaetta Water
melon day right here in Moscow, un-
der the auspices of the Moscow
Chamber of Commerce, and put over
worth the powder?
