JOHN CALDWELL
HAS BEAUTIFUL
FLOWER GARDEN

Saturday of last week The Repub-
lican publishers visited the home of
John w. Caldwell, obtensibly to look
over the start OF his fine new wire
less station, but in reality to fill our
eyes with Mr.. and Mrs. Caldwell's
beautiful flower garden.
Dahlias there were in profus.cn,
and asters, snapdragons, marigolds,
sweet peas, besides many Others, all
In riotous bloom and exhibiting the
most beautiful colorings and tones.
While the Caldwells are firm be-
iievers in providing feast for the
eyes. the internal disarrangements
of mankind have not been overlooked
by any means. The fruit trees are
bending to the earth with their load
of apples. peaches and pears, and the
thrifty vegetable garden, with its
profusion OF substantials, leads one
to believe that the coming of winter
has no terrors for the Caldwells.

AMERICAN PLANS
THE INTRODUCTION OF
CHOP sUEY INTO CHINA

Well, well! There is no chop suey
In China, according to Walter G.
Whiffen, Associated Press bureau
chief at Peking, who has prosecuted
an unofficial search for the dish in
what was supposed to be its native
land. What's more, and worse, there
never has been any chop suey In
China, at least not so that 1t could
be noticed. MT. Whiffen says he has
.ried chop suey as served in Amer
lea. and thinks so much of 1t that
he is seriously considering introduc-
ing 1t to official circles of the Chi
nese capital when he returns TO his
post there next month.
No chop suey in China; no uku-
leles in Hawaii What next?

BRUNEAU MAN
TAKES REPUBLICAN
FOR "a YEARS

J. ]. Connor of the Bruneau sec
ton was in Mountain Home Saturday
on business.
Mr.. Connor 10 one of the original
subscribers to The Republican, hav-
ing paid his first subscription to the
publishers In 1888, thirty-fomr years
ago. So far as we know, this is the
record.
Mr.. Connor came to this section
of Idaho in 1888, and he and the
country have evidently agreed IA
mously. When he first went to Bru-
neau there was but three acres OF
alfalfa in the valley, where now the
section products thousands OF tons
of the succulent hay every year.
He has some OF the finest land in
Idaho, which is well watered by a
superb artesian flow, and he reports
that the third cutting of alfalfa Is
now two feet tall and still coming.
The Republican trusts that thirty
four years from hence Mr.. Connor
will still be one OF our subscribers.
1t is such men as he who are contrib
uting so much to the prosperity OF
our great state.

COUNTRY AMERICA HAS MONEY

MR.. MERCHANT: The tide has turned
Prosperity is here.
Country America has money, and that money is
going to be spent with the merchants who go after
it-with the merchants who advertise.
Here is the proof 1t is from a report of Eugene
Meyer Director of the U. S. War Finance Corpora
ton, issued August 3:
From July 16 to July 81, 1922, agriculture, live
stock and cooperative marketing associations RE
PAID loans totaling $4,93g392.
In the same period, from widely separated dis
tricts the board only asked to advance ST. OO0
"a clear gain of over three million dollars in two
weeks.
That means that country America has money. 1t
has quit borrowing It is paying it's debts.
Country America has repaid $105 300 agricul-
tlral loans within the last seven months.
Country America needs more clothing buildings
machinery and supplies right now, than at any time
since hectic war-prosperity days
When Country America has money, Mr. Merchant

You can get your share if you are awake and go

FRUIT CAN BE GROWN
IN MOUNTAIN HOME

Mrs. w. C. Howie read in last
weeks issue of the Republican
folks visit to Wild Rose ranch north
of town, and evidently was afraid
that we had absorbed the impression
that one had to travel IL he or she
were to secure good homegrown
fruit. In order to disabuse our
minds of any such impression, Mrs.
Howie on Monday brought into The
Republican office basket of the
finest fruit we ever looked at-or
tasted. 1t consisted of pears, apples,
peaches, peach plums and the most
wonderful dewbemies. The fruit
was all grown on Mrs. Howies place,
and it is.a powerful witness for the
truth that Mountain Home does not
have to take back seat in the grow
ing of fruit.

Since April l

Cleveland, O.-Immediate resump-
tion of coal production In bituminous
mines scattered over seven states
was ordered Tuesday night and In
some places the cutting OF coal was
started Wednesday.
Orders for miners to return to
work were sent by district union Of
ficials after the operators had signed
an agreement renewing the wage
contracts that were in force when
the men quit the mines last March.
The formal break in the strike
came at $40 D. m, when the scale
agreement was adopted by the unan-
pmous vote Of the miners and oper.
ators at their Joint conference.
The general agreement then was
signed by T. K Maher OF Cleveland,
an operator, as chairman OF the con
ference, and William Green, a miner,
as its secretary. Supplemental agree
ments between operators and union
officials then were executed and the
union chiefs wired local unions that
work might be renewed.

miners said that operators controll-
ing an annual output OF approx
mately 6O,O0O,000 tons had signed
the agreement. Their mines, he said

confirmed her charge that Nj.

that Mrs. Leeds had borne two

The referee wrote that the tes-

Quoted herself with Fred Beauvais,

to justify him in believing Mrs.
