DAILY OASIS SuSPENDS.

Because of the financial con- dition, existing not only in Mo- gales but throughout the nation, and because of the high costs of producing daily newspaper, The Daily Morning Oasis will suspend publication with this issue, says Tuesday mornings Oasis.
 Perhaps no newspaper in the state is held in such high esteem by it's readers as The Oasis and the management realizes that in teasing publication many people and our friends will be disap- pointed, but the daily, every since it was started December l, 1917, has been a money losing proposition and it is impossible to secure sufficient financial backing to continue it at a loss.
 The Weekly Oasis, establish ed more than @ quarter of a cen- tury ago by Allen T. Bird, will be published twice a week in the future - Wednesdays and Saturdays All paid in advance subscribers to the daily will have the semi weekly sent them.
 The Semi weekly Oasis will have a circulation of approxima- tely two thousand paid subscrib- CTS and an active circulation campaign will be inaugurated at once. The management plans to make it paper of exceptional merit covering the entire county and the West Coast of Mexico.
 There is no change in the off, cers of the company. J. E. Wise con ntinues as president; J. L.. Schleimer, vice president and Bruce Hannah, secretary-treas- urer.

RICHER2 NOT NOW

1t is a common opinion abroad that
the wealth of the United States was
greatly increased by the war, but that
is a fallacy The United States was
growing in wealth before the war, and
there is good reason for believing
that this growth was checked rather
than stimulated by the war.
1t is true that during the first
years, and before entering the war,
as combatant, the nominal wealth
of the country increased very rapidly,
and the real wealth also increased
at greater than the normal rate. But
after the country entered the war its
own expenditures were very great
and the deterioration of property and
loss of normal development was very
serious. Moreover, a large part of
the profits made during the period
of rising prices has been lost in the
period of falling prices and the coun-
try is now experiencing in idle indus
tries, business depression, unemploy-
ment. and forced bankruptcies, a
reaction which is costing an amount
that can not be measured The Ma
TONS Business.

UNsHAKEN TESTIMONY

Time is the test of truth. And
Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the
test in Payette. No Payette resident
who suffers backache, or annoying
urinary ills can remain unconvinced
by this twice-told testimony.
Mrs. r. D. Barry, 334 Third Ave,
Payette, says: II had backaches and
other trouble with my kidneys for
several years. 1t was hard to bend
over or to get up from chair There
was always feeling of lameness
and soreness across my kidneys and
dull, throbbing ache in my back
and loins. My kidneys acted irregular
ly, too. Nights, I was restless and
could get but little sleep, and when
/ got up mornings l felt tired and
nervous. When I was advised to try
Doan's Kidney Pills, ] purchased a
box. They put me in perfect health. >
OVER TEN YEARS LATER, Mrs.
Barry said: 81 have but little need of
a kidney remedy now but when | do
notice that my kidneys are weak, I
use Doan's Kidney Pills. They always
give me fine results"

THE MILLEYED SPUp.

Judging from a bulletin Just issued
by the Idaho Reclamation Associa-
ton, which states it has made care
full survey of the situation. we
should take off, our hats to the Ida
no Potato. 1t has taken the lead in
putting Idaho on its financial feet
according to this statement, which
gives the total amount that will be
derived by Idaho potato producers
this year at $5,500,000, on the CON
sentative basis of s1.50 per hundred
to the grower
With this start, the procession of
money coming into the state during
the year will permit of q general
liquidation that will revive every in
dustry and every business in this
state, and start Idaho again perma-
nently toward the goal every citi-
zen desires his state to reach in the
shortest possible time.
This initial money results from
favorable market conditions pbls
freight reduction; and also from eff
forts of such men as H. M Adams,

ARMAMENTs VS. SEPARATIONS

Germany is expected to pay an
annuity of $50O,00O,000, plus &c per
cent of the actual value of her ex-
ports" Senator Borah says in The
Nations Business.
AS matters now stand the German
foreign trade would make this export
charge amount to about $3.50, 10000
which would make her annual pay
ment about $760, 100000. We will as
sumo, however, that her exports will
increase, so that at the end of forty
years it is estimated that Germany
will have paid $33. 000,000,0 900. Look
at our expenditures for our military
and naval establishments: We ex-
pended for military and naval pur-
poses from June 80, 1920, to June
80, 1921, $S25,337,939. The army
and Navy bills just passed will incur
an expenditure of not less than $3.50,
900, more. This would
equal in forty years little over $685.
000,Q 100000. So we shall pay for our
army and our navy at the present
rate an amount equal to the vast
PREPARATION bill which has been asses
sed against Germany"

There has been much said in yarl-
Gus publications, and other ways, re-
sarding the care and health of the
children of this nation. 1t has often
been said, that we give more care ana
attention to the welfare of our stock
than to the rising generation. While
this may be true, there are thou
sands of dollars in public approprla-
tions expended for the betterment OF
the health conditions of our children
that in no sense of the word is OF
any real benefit. II the child is fed
good wholesome food, properly cloth
ed, and little more attention given
to cultivating the right disposition
and moral training, nature will take
care of the health. This should be
done in the home, and not left for
the public nurse and the Juvenile
Courts after it is too late. How many
stop to think that the childs training
from infancy is WIDELY responsible
for its disposition and moral condl-
ton in after years. The child learns
everything from imitation what it
hears, it says; what it sees, it does.
Cross and harsh words will sooner or
later rebound back as an echo from
the hills. To contradict the child will
only teach it to contradict. To deceive
the child will teach it deception. The
environment surrounding child
while it grows to manhood and wo-
manhood determines it's destiny thru
life In this day and age, too little
attention is given to the training of
children while in the home.

Idaho, in common with the entire
nation, has suffered from depression,
but its reclaimed areas are putting it
back where the state was prior to
the general slump. We are now NOV

we realize the value of reclamation
to all of us, we certainly must be
impressed with the necessity of the

sary development be continued and
our production raised to the highest
possible level

EXIT PICKPOCKETS

What possible relation can there
be between the disappearance Of
pick-pockets and modern business
courtesy?
Police authorities know that peck
et-picking is practically an extinct
form of endeavor A crude worker
may still occasionally try to lift a
watch at a county fair, but, generally
speaking, this brand of thieving is
no more. 1t has gone the way OF
buffalo lap robes, pug dogs, Sunday
buggy rides, beefsteak for breakfast
and torchlight professions. Why?
Because pocketpicking is no longer
a gainful occupation.
What has brought about the
change? The attitude of the banks.
They cater more than ever before to
the small depositor If a man wishes
to open an account and start off with
$3.50 or even less, he receives the
same courteous consideration that
would be accorded the customer de-
posting thousands. Only few years
ago, a person with small savings
looked upon bankers as a crusty lot
and kept away from such institutions
for fear of being insulted. Today
even the majority of the safety-de-
post boxes are held by persons of
comparatively modest means. Banks
have simply followed the changed at
titude of business in general All
business has been growing more
courteous every year. And this
spread of courtesy is the basic rea-
son why pickpockets are now rarely
heard of.-Fred Kelly in The Ma
TONS Business.

PEP


/ Some of MS can remember the
! time when Judgment was respected
in business, manners counted in so
cial intercourse, and dignity seemed
proper in the church
| Now the first thing they ask of
a man is. Has he any pep?"
Pep has put poise out for the
count.
The quiet, steady, thoughtful man
who has his employers interests hon
estly at heart is outshone by the
shallowpate who gurgles with easy
enthusiasm and imparts to his labOrs
noisy and feyeTish activity
The courteous, self-contained gen
tleman seems duh and oldfashioned
in comparison with the eXuberant
spirit who is hailed as the life of
the party"
The kindly, benevolent preacher Of
years agone is fast giving place to .
militant person who sWears in the
pulpit.
A dash of pepper adds a fine flavor
but too much spoils the dish.
This mania for pep has substituted
jazz for music, sex stories for litera-
ture and slap-stick stuff for humor
It is responsible for short skirts
and red cheeks; Charlie Chaplin
mustaches and embozzlement; auto
mobile accidents and the shimmy
Children who ought to be spanked
and sent to bed are giggled at by
fond parents because they show pep.
Old folks who ought to know bet
ter are dragging their poor, complain
ing legs over the dance floor to show
they still have pep.
Who started this preposterous pif-
file about pep anyway?

THE FARMER AND
HIS MAREET

Does the farmer do well or i'll when
in time of low prices and diminished
demand for his products he deliber-
ately plants a smaller acreage!
Should he be commended or rebuked
for adjusting his production to the
conditions of his market?
If the farmer is kind of serf
whose only purpose in life is to raise
abundant food at the cheapest posi-
BILE price for the other members OF
the community, he ought of course
to plant all he can, work as hard as
he can and raise all he can every
year. If he is a self-supporting citl-
zen engaged in the business of pro-
ducing foodstuffs for sale to his fell
low citizens who are otherwise em-
ployed, it is hard to see any reason
why he should not use his intelll-
gence in estimating the amount OF
his crops that he can sell at such pri-
ces as to give him a decent living
and then restrict his production to
that amount. No one is astonished or
shocked when a manufacturer closes
a part of his plant because the mar
ket will not absorb his entire output.
Why should we expect the farmer TO
raise so much that part of his crop
has to be thrown away and the rest
cold at a price that returns him little
or nothing for his labor?
OF course it is difficult for the
farmers to tell exactly how much
they should reduce their acreage il
order to produce the necessary and
only the necessary amount of food.
The independent producers are SO
many and so widely scattered that
each man can get only an uncertain
idea of what his own share in raising
the crop of the year should be, or of
just what the millions of other farm
ers are doing with regard to the sit
uation. And even if the growing
means of intercommunication among
farmers and the increasing efficiency
of cooperative organizations should
help him to a sensible decision on
the question of acreage. there are
the uncertainties of drought or flood
or insect pest that often make the
harvest of September something quite
different from the estimate of May.
There is therefore the danger that .
general movement for reducing crop
areas may go too far and result in q
real shortage of food. But that does
not AFFECT the tOEAIuSlON ina the
farmers have a perfect right to adj
Just their work and their production
to what they believe is to be the eff
fectual demand, and that it is often
wise for them to do it.
The cotton planters of the South
have this year, done exactly that |
knowing that almost one half of
last years great crop OF thirteen mil |
lion bales remained unsold and that
another bumper crop would depress
prices to the point of bankruptcy for
them. they planted less than three
quarters of their usual acreage and |
raised a crop of only some eight mil
lion bales-the smallest crop sinceI
1895. But the carry-over is so great
that the visible supply of cotton is
almost as large as ever, and the price
has not been much affected by the
crop reports. The grain farmers have
not reduced their acreage materially !
and their crop is likely to be about
as large as last year, though much
smaller than the extraordinary crop
of 1919.
