weather of the winter, SO far. The
first approach of the cold wave was
noticed Tuesday evening and by We'd
nesday morning the mercury had
dropped to Is degrees below zero,
playing havoc with the water pipes
and making busy day for the plumb
ers Wednesday night was bitter cold
until about midnight, when the tenn
perature commenced to get back up
toward zero, and this morning found
it several degrees above, but with a
cold wind blowing. Thursday was
perhaps the coldest day of the winter,
but with sky cloudy and some evil
dence that the cold wave is about to
break
The ground is we'll covered with
snow, so that vegetation is we'll pro-

MANY ENTRIES AT
POULTRY SHOW
TWO HUNDRED BIRDS IN EXHIB-
IT-JUDGING FRIDAY-EDUCAT-
IONAL FEATURES STRESSED

The Moscow poultry show, which is
being put on by the Moscow Poultry
association, was opened at noon
Thursday in the Washburn and Will
son Seed Co., building, with $50 birds
on exhibition and a number more en-
tries promised, which will bring the
entries up to at least 200. The show
is under the active management Of
r. E. Waldo, president of the associ-
alton, and H. w. Hubert, secretary.
The exhibits are well up to the ex-
pectation of the promoters of the
show, and demonstrate that the Mos
COW district has many chicken fan
~ciers who have been breeding the best
birds possible The exhibits run
strong to Rhode Island Reds, White
LeghOrns and Barred Rocks.
The poultry department of the Uni
versity of Idaho is putting on an egg
exhibition at the show, demonstrate
ing how to select eggs for market and
showing the amateur many things
which he probably did not know be-
fore regarding eggs. The quantity
and kind of feed necessary per hen
per year, is also shown and other
educational matters discussed with
those interested. R. E, Waldo is in
charge of this department.
r. V. Mitchell, head of the poultry
of Washington State Col
lege, has been secured to Judge the
exhibits, and will do this work Friday
Persons who are interested in poul-
try can gain much information by
talking with the experts in charge at
the show, and the dissemination of
useful information, leading to more
interest in the poultry industry and
the producing of better birds, is the
principal object of the show. The
public is requested to ask questions
and get the greatest possible benefit
from the show in this way.
Many of the birds which are on ex
hibition are for sale and it is expec
ted that, with the increasing interest
in poultry, which has been evidenced
in recent months, there will be many
buyers.
The show will be open Thursday
and Friday evenings from 7 until 8
o'clock for the convenience of the
public, and all persons who are inter
ested in poultry, or who enjoy seeing
some really beautiful birds, are cor
daily invited to attend.

BIG DRAMATIC ~PUNCH"
in HAMMERSTEIN PLAY

"Remorseless Love-" in which
Elaine Hammerstein will be presented
at the KenWorthy theatre Saturday,
is a somewhat different type of story
from any in which the popular screen
star has yet appeared. The scenes
are laid in the Kentucky mountains
and the action has to do with dra-
matte incidents growing out of one OF
the ages-old feuds for which that sec
ton is celebrated.
There are no ball rooms or evening
gowns. Miss Hammerstein appears as
a young girl whom little education
has failed to change from the proto-
type of her ancestors, whose loves
and hates were as strong and wild as
the winds that rocked their mountain
trees.
The big punch" arrives in a court
room scene during which the girl
threatened with violent death If she
dares to tell the truth, braves every
thing for the man she loves.

DISTRICT REPORTS
AUDIT STATEMENT
GENESEE HIGHWAY COMMISSI0N-
'ERS PRESENT FINANCIAL SHOW
ING TO COUNTY BOARD

Audit report of the Genesee high
way district has been filed with the
board of county commissioners of La
tab county as provided for by law.
The report is on the activities of the
/ district from September >, 1921, to
January 5, 1922, and is compiled with
recommendations by the Gaylord
Brothers company of Spokane, public
accountants, auditors and idustrial
counselors
The annual report of the Kendrick
highway district, ending January 12,
1922, for the year 1921 was filed with
the county commissioners on Thurs
day.
Auditor Summarizes Report
Addressed to the board of commits
sioners of the district, George M.
Larsen, field auditor of the Gaylord
Brothers company, submitted report
contained in the report to the county
commissioners, in which the following
was contained:
GAS your funds now stand it is
evident that you have used money
from the maintenance fund for I'M
provement, as the general malnten-
ance fund, after reimbursing the vari-
Gus road maintenance funds should
have nearly $4,000, and you have
only $9,003.07 on hand in all funds.
This must be watched very closely,
now that your funds are low, until
the ruling from the attorney general
is obtained as to the authority for
transferring of funds.
Takes Up Levy Question
1--WE want to take up again the
question of levies. In the first place,
a five mill levy on your present valu-
alton does not raise enough money to
take care of bond interest. AS your
present valuation wiz probably re-
ceive a large cut in this period of de-
preston, you cannot watch this too
closely
although your bonds do not re-
quire a sinking fund for seven years,
it is advisable to create one at once
If your valuation decreases, it will
be very hard to raise the bond issue
of $4,000 in ten years. At your
present valuation, you will have to
levy a tax of IA mills the eleventh
year, and decrease this only small
fraction each year until the bond IN
terest and sinking fund is sufficient
to retire the bonds. If you start now
it will require only 10 mills at the
present valuation to retire the bonds
when due True, it is hard to think
of increased taxes in this period of
but the fact remains that
this is the logical way to handle the
matter, as only the future can tell
what it will have in store for the tax
payer
Assets and Liabilities
According to the statement of assets
and liabilities January 3, 1922 the
total assets of the districts amount
to $169,49263 while the total liabilities
total $4,000.
A copy of the report of the Kendrick
highway district for the year ending
January 12, 1922 was filed Thursday
Total receipts for the year, accord
ing to the report, amounted to $13,-
942.02 with total expenditures for the
year of $11539.07, leaving balance
on hand at the end of the year of
s2,4O2.95. The approximate mileage
Of main travelled road in the highway
district is SO miles. The approximate
mileage of graded roads is 73 miles
while 73 miles of earth roads were
graded and drained during the past
year.

Hoarding Marks Brings
German Money Scarcity

BERLIN, Aug. 20 (By The Associated
Press. 1.-THE scarcity of mark notes in
circulation to-day reached such an
acute stage that the Reichsbank paid
in cash only 40 per cent Of the amounts
demanded covering the balance by
checks. The paucity In currency avail
able is held to be due primarily to gen
cral boarding of marks and the con-
sumars' need for greater numbe.. Of
mark notes than heretofore on account
of the recent price increases. Other
cauaes include the fact that the gov
eminent presses have not yet caught
up with the shortage brought about by
the printers strike some time ago
Rudolph Havenstein, president .,f the
ReIchsbank, declared banks of cred,.
were short Of means for meeting pay

announced the following increase from

marks; Treasury notes on hand in the

mercial bills of exchange, o,700 ,ooO.-
