Since wage reductions are being
put into practice by number of
large employees OF labor, strikes are
again becoming numerous. The de-
mand has been to reduce prices and
the high cost of living, but when
wages are included IN the plan of
reduction there is strenuous OBJ
pIoyes have issued the ultimatum to
either accept the lower pay or quit.
According to recent estimate
there are 1882, 900 workers out of
employment, so it has evidently
reached the stage where jobs even
at reduced wages will begin to ap-
pear attractive.

Governor DAVIS recommended cut
of almost million dollars from the
amount of appropriations applied
tor by state educational lnstitu-
tlons. This action will no doubt
meet with distavor from good
many quarters, but we believe the
majority of taxpayers will heartily
endorse the Governor action. The
people of Idaho are just as pro-
gressive as any other people in the
world and will always strongly
favor spending money tor educa-
tlonal purposes, but they want their
moneys worth, and it IS a question,
wherein there is much room for
speculation, whether they have been
getting proper returns from the
money expended for maintenance
of state educational institutions.

According to recent report paper
mills are now operating at only fifty
per cent of their capacity and yet
the cry has been for the past four
years or more while paper prices
were soaring, that the mills could
Mt supply the demand. Paper price
reductions to date are so slight that
they can hardly be computed with
out involving the use of long
columns of fractions, and in spite
of this we will venture to say that
If congressional investigating
committee were to look into the
matter the mill owners would
blandly inform said committee that
paper prices were unavoidable on
account of the shortage that can't
possibly be overcome. The paper
situation has been on par with the
sugar graft, the only difference be-
ing that sugar prices went up in a
hurry and came down the same way,
while paper prices have been going
up for the past five years and from

Cleanliness and Distinction Required
to Destroy Parasites That

To rid the henhouse of the little red
mite that stunts the hens so much re-
quires cleanliness and disinfecting
The filth must be cleaned up, the
house ventilated and the sunlight let
in. Removable roosts and drop boards
infect the roosts and house everything
should be painted or sprayed with a
solution of two parts of oil and one
part of stock dip. Applications
should be made in pairs about five or
six days apart in order to kill the
mites that have Matched since the last
spraying.

Cure for Flat Feet.

Are you fiat-footed? If you don't
know, the next time you take a bath,
observe the impressions that your wet
feet make. If your feet are normal,
there will be narrow line from heel
to toe on the outside; If they are fiat,
the entire bottom of the foot will
show.
How can you cure fiat-footedness?
Buy 4 handful of marbles, place them
in two rows, and start picking them
up with your toes. To do this you
must curl up your toes; as result
the muscles of the feet will be exef-
cised and thereby strengthened.--Pop-
ular Science Monthly.

MILK CAMPAIGNS IN
MANY COMMUNITIES

Selling the milk habit to folks is
the way some people, refer to the ed
ucational milk campaigns which are
being held under the supervision of
dairy specialists Of the United States
Department Of Agriculture. These
campaigns are cooperative enter
prises, the department specialists join
ing with the State extension forces
and local officials and leaders. in
showing the value of milk as y health
food. Thus far II States have cooper
ated in conducting campaigns in 40
cities and more than 100 rural COM
munities. fls gss5
\ Before milk-consumption cam
paign is held in a community a pre-
liminary survey is conducted to make
sure that the milk supply is clean
and wholesome, that there is a
sufficient amount to take care Of any
increased consumption resulting from
the campaign, and that the local au-
thorities are willing to cooperate in
the movement.
1t is also made certain that con-
dition of undernourishment exists
among growing children or that chill
dren are consuming too little milk.
By following this plan, the depart
ment specialists say, every milk cam
paign thus far conducted has been
successful and has result Jed in more
than temporary increase in the con-
sumption of milk. ,Ns

INDIGESTIBILITY OF
STARCH DISPROVED

1t has been generally believed that
raw starch was harmful, and that all
starchy foods should be subjected to
thorough cooking to be digested prop
perly by the human body. Corn
starch and similar puddings, quickly
made, were 'tabooed by those who held
to the belief that raw starch is not
digestible has been proven erroneous,
at least in the case of healthy adults.
In d series of experiments conducted
by the Office of Home Economics,
United States Department of Agri-
culture, it has been found that corn
starch, and rice starch were all d.
gested completely when eaten in
frozen pudding in which they con-
stitpted as much as 20% of the en-
tire dish. Raw potato starch later in
the same, kind Of pudding was found
to be less digestible, giving an aver
age of 1920 digestibility, and ssimi-
lar results were obtained with tuber
and root starches. The textbook
statement that raw starch lis not di-
gestible will now have to be changed,
and persons who have feared a harm

starch in foods may allay all ap-

THE ..RIpPER7 DECISION

The hlf 4 LN ~:
To a great many people Of Ohio'
regardless of political faith, the ac-
t;on Of the supreme court Of the state
in unfolding Governor Davis code
law as an emergency measure, is no
less amazing than the stupendous
nerve of the executive, not to men
tion his political shortsightedness, in
asking that such statute be enact
ed And with this respect it may be
regarded with considerable signlfl-
cance that the decision of the court
stood four to three, the chief him.
self dissenting.
In the light of the decision the ref
erendum sections Of the Ohio con-
stitution are worthless. When the
referendum privilege was written In
to the constitution the electorate sup
posed with every reason that it was
writing therein a check on leglsla-
tive usurpation. In short it was
designed to prevent just the sort OF
thing which the supreme court now
declares the legislature has a right
to do.
The constitution clearly states that
an emergency law is necessary for
the immediate preservation of the
public peace, health or safety" BY
what stretch of the Imagination can
the reversal of the commemorative
form of government be regarded as
necessary for the preservation OF
the public peace, health or safety?
Why, even the court does not attempt
to justify, it's decision on the ground
of emergency, but takes the astound-
ing position that the legislature is
the sole arbiter Of what an emerg-
ency is, thus waving the privilege
which the public always supposed it
possessed, of deciding whether a law
is in accord with the constitution.
Senator George II. Bender Of Cleve-
land, who with Senator J. F. Burke
of Elyria, brought suit in the su-
preme court to test validity of the
measure assam emergency, states that
after the reorganization bill passed
both houses it was discovered that
under the new plan it would cost the
state $114,000 more annually, in sal
aries alone, while it's coterie of ad-
vocates have prated of its econom-
ical value.
The decision Of the supreme court
means Governor Davis has free hand
to build up a powerful personal
machine, and in view of his overween-
ing political ambitions, he will un-
doubtedly do this. This re-organiza-
tion bill was not an issue in the
last state campaign, but an
afterthought Of the state admins
tration, forced through the legisla.
ture by party strength, in brazen de-
fiance Of constitutional definity. In
evitably this defiance will become 's
substantial issue in the campaign 6
year from now, the outcome of which
we predict,will be anything but to thl
liking of the ripper bills progenitors
and decidedly at variance with Their
present roseate hopes and expecta
tions. -
