ambition of becoming distinguished
service school," Major Jordan told the
cadets.
Object of r. O. T. C.
He spoke briefly of the objects of
the r. o. T. C. work by saying that
the r. O.. T. G. was designed to benefit
the men physically and mentally, to
train men SO that the United States
would be able to call for trained Off
GERS in case of war, and not to draw
college students from their intended
life work into the army. He cited sta
tistics compiled on the World war ac-
tions showing the advantages the
higher trained men had over the more
poorly trained soldiers.
NThe R. o. T. G. training will give
you and the man serving under you,
in case of war, a white mans
chance" Major Jordan said.

H. S. EDUCATION
is COSTING LESS
DIR, BRYAN SAYS PER CAPITA
COST IN HIGH SCHOOL 20 PER
CENT LESS.

The per capita cost or educating
high school puni1s in Idaho was re-
duced some 20 per cent last year from
the cost the year previous, according
to a statement made Tuesday morning
to The Star Mirror by DR.. E. A. Bryan,
commissioner of education, who was
in Moscow as one of the instructors
at the district teachers institute.
Dr. Bryant stated that the average
monthly cost prior TO last year was
approximately $12 per capita, while
last year, reports recently issued
show. the cost was about $40. Moscow
ranks among the lowest in per capita
cost in the state, $3.50 per pupil per
month as against the average of $40
for last year.
Commissioner Bryan also stated
that the Moscow high school is the
largest in any community of its size
in the state, ranking eighth. Moscow
has a larger high school than Occur d
Alene, BlackfoOt, Burley or Sand
point and as large as Pocatello, al
though that city has several times the
population of Moscow
The reduction in the cost of high
school operation in the state is due
to conservative management in the
various districts, and not due, to any
extent to reduction in teachers sal
aries The salary reductions, the COM
missioner stated, were very slight, in
many places the same scale as the
previous year being paid. Other
economies were put into effect which
did not detract from the efficiency of
the schools, but which brought down
the per capita cost materially.
DR.. Bryan stated that in his opinion
a very successful institute is being
held heres He stated that the insti-
tute here and at Wallace, this week,
marks the end of the six district in
stitutes in the state, all of which have
been very much worth while, in his
opinion, with the teachers taking
deep interest, and with a number of
educators of nationwide fame on the
institute faculty in each case.
DR.. Bryan left Moscow Tuesday af-
ternoon for Wallace and will return
to his home at Boise from there.

finds CLOVER SEED
PROFITABLE CROP
FARMERS ON THE POTLATCH TO
INCREASE ACREAGE
NEXT YEAR

E. C. Gertje, of Southwick, has
demonstrated over a period of years
that clover seed can be profitably
grown in the Potlatch. He has been
producing seed for the market for a
good many years and has found that
it pays him a very good profit. This
year from 43 acres he threshed an
average of lis pounds to the acre.
This was a light crop, as his aver
age is about3OO pounds, says the
Kendrick Gazette. A sack weighs
about 13O pounds and he sold his sur
plus seed to Washburn & Wilson at
Moscow for $23.50 per sack, in the
dirt.
1t is a very encouraging symptom
that this summer he has sold large
amount of seed to his neighbors, so
it is safe to say that the clover ac-
feage around Southwick will be
largely increased next year.
Mr. Gertje harvests three crops of
seed from a field and then plows it
up, as the ground gets too foul if
left to that crop for longer than
that length Of time. The land after
a rest of several years and having
a renewed stock of humus, is in
condition to raise splendid grain
crops.
The clover straw is good winter
feed for the stock and is a valuable
by-product.
Mr.. Gertje says that because of
the fact that for three successive
crops it is not necessary to plow or
seed the ground, the amount received
for the clover seed crop represents
practically clear profit, after deduct
ing the cost of harvesting and of
threshing He has been at the bust
ness for the past seven years and af-
ter trying out this crop for that per-
iod of time, he is in a position to
know that it can be made to pay.
Ernest Schmidt. of Leland, seeded
"a acres to clover several years ago.
Last year he got 55 sacks and this
year So sacks from the patch. This
year he cleared $3.50 on the one crop.

DON'T OVERLOOK THIS
A Careful PedusaI VIII Prove Its
Value to Every Payette Reader.

The average man is boubter, and
there is little wonder that this is so.
Misrepresentation make people skep-
tics. Nowadays the public asks for
better evidence than testimony Of
strangers. Here is proof which should
convince every Payette reader.
Geo. R. Fulon, retired farmer, Gil
Sixth St., Payette, says: II was
troubled with Kidney complaint and
my back caused me the most suffer-
ing. 1t ached all the time and was
very weak. AS I had heard about
Doan's Kidney Pills so often, used
them and it only took a few weeks
to correct the disorder and rid me of
the pains"

WHY RUN THE RISK?

One newspaper in one city on
Sept. 90 contained two fire items.
One from the state of Washington re-
corded the death of a little crippled
girl eight years old who was unable
to leave her parents farm house when
II burned. The other reported the
death of six persons and injury of
many more when "a families were
trapped by flames in a New York
apartment. This is merely sample
of daily press reports as they appear
in all parts of the United States.
During the past five years pub
lished figures show approximately
$4,000 men, women and children
burned to death, 100000 injured and
property destruction of s1,672, 722,-
677.
Is it any wonder that fire pre-
ention wee" is becoming a national
feature recognized in all states?
Training in fire prevention should
not be confined to one week, it
should be a daily course in evedy
public school in the land.
Engender the idea of fire pre-
yention in the minds of the children
and in ten years the saving in human
life and physical property would be
enormous.
Most fires are preventable. Then
why not give more thoughr to this
subject which touches every indus
try and every individual in our eoun-
try.
Why subject your loved ones and
our property to the ravages of the
red hand of fire when the simplest
training and precautionary measures
will remove 90 per cent of the risk.

Tlber Sometimes UnruIy.

The Tiber is the second largest river
Of Italy, ranking next to the Pc. 1t
rises In Tuscany, in the Apprentices
and after q winding course Of 245
miles, empties into the Tyrrhenian sea
ian arm of the Mediterranean about
twenty-six miles below Rome. 1t en-
tiers the sea by two branches, one OF
which Is channel excnyated by the
Emperors Claudius and Trajan. These
two arms surround m unhealthful
island known as the Isola Sacra. The
Tiber in times past has frequently
overlooked its banks and caused great
devastation, and costly entertainments
at Rome have only partially averted
this peril. In 1900 one Of the most
disastrous floods in history occurred.
Under normal conditions the river is
nayirable for small steamers as far
as Rome.

In Cathedral Shadows.

There is a mystic gloom about st.
Patricks cathedral at night, writes the
New York correspondent of the Indian
apolis Star. The corners are filled
with hadows--fanciful, elusive, but
rather comforting. There is a world
of silence among the empty aisles and
shadowy arches relieved only by the
faint glow of the many devotional can
dies. Every football is an agony, and
shoes creak that never creaked be-
fore. One almost expects to see a
Florentine monk or beautiful nun in
meditation in the shadowy corners.
The Waterman tiptoes silently about
to see that none of the candles have
gone out. On summer night the
spires of the cathedral rise dreamily
to the heavens, at times silvered by a
pale moon. AT all hours of the night
people come and go, the men remov-
Ing their hats as they begin to mount
the steps,
