THE GAME. AS PLAYED IN CANYON

Judge Rice resides at Caldwell.
Judge Rice has been on the supreme
bench six years and was candidate
for reelection. He is popular in his
home town and his home county He
is held in high esteem. And this is
what Canyon county did on election
day. 1t gave Rice, it's distinguished
citizen 1862 votes, Lee, the republican
candidate, 1881 votes and Hall, the
progressive candidate, 4105 votes.
The Caldwell Tribune says: And
Mr.. Hall, who swept the county was
only admitted to practice law before
the court to which he aspired last
summer. Today he is a grocer on a
small scale in Twin Falls and not
very good grocer at that"
Canyon county turned down it's jur-
list and voted 1543 votes in favor Of
the :" small grocer - whom they did not
know, never had seen and from
community far remote from theirs.
Surely the people do rule" much on
the plan that 1.-The sun do move."-

Aggie Boys Study
Wheat-Raising

The State Department of Agricul
ture through the State Laboratorie.
at Dover recently made a statemen
to the effect that the terminating
quality of wheat this year is yer!
low.
Some of our Agricultural teachers
particularly in wheat raising sections
have taken up this problem for theil
local communities with similar re-
suits.
The Milton Department of Vocation
al Agriculture in the High School has
done particularly good work in this
respect. The agricultural class OF
approximately twenty farm boys gath
cred samples of wheat from their
own farms and twenty farmers
brought in samples making forty
samples in total The class worked
for three days on the job of selecting
wheat seed which job includes deter
minatiOn of weight per bushel, free
dom from weeds, proportion of sound
seed and percent of termination.
They found that the wheat in that
section weighs only so to Sc pounds
per bushel consequently a loss to
farmers when they sell sixty pounds
to the bushel. The presence of weed
seeds and foreign materials ran from
to go. In soundness, that is, pro-
portion of shriveled and cracked
grains to good full, plump kernels the
class found from to 2536 unsound.
Of the forty samples when placed in
a termination test one sample tested
92a0, three samples 800, and the
other thirty-six samples ran very low,
even down to 10 and 2O9o termination.
Also much smut was found in the
wheat seed.
This class has drawn conclusions
like these:
1t does not pay to raise wheat un-
less the yield per acre is increased.
1t is a waste of time, money and
seed to sow IL and IL bushels of
wheat per acre when only a half or
three-quarters of it will grow.
1t is more profitable to buy GOOD
seed than use their own when their
own is so poor for seed.
The increase in yield per acre can
be helped by selecting only good,
sound and pure seed which will grow.
This class has not finished this
study, for it has yet to determine the
conditions and practices which most
largely cause this loss, by gathering
from the farms which
these wheat samples were gathered
and find the further correlatiOns and
conclusions which can be drawn.
Teaching of this sort not only is
Education but is practical and even
more, is profitable for the boys and
heir fathers but also the entire COM
nunity.

DON'T WOMEN KNOW THIS2

Whose taxes have been reduced %
What foolish question to ask a Wo-
man! None of the millions of taxpay-
ers realize any more than the women
that they no longer pay a 10 per cent
tax when they buy umbrellas, para
soils, millinery, stockings, knit goods,
underwear, kimonas, petticoats, waists
and other wearing apparel.
No one is more aware of the fact
than the woman that she no longer
pays tax upon perfumery and cos
metics.
No one is more aware than the wo-
man that she no longer pays a tax of
10 per cent when she patronizes a
soda fountain, or buys a box of candy
or dish of ice cream.
No one realizes more than the wo-
man that she no longer pays a tax
when she buys medical preparations,
tooth paste and like articles at the
drug stores. All of these taxes known
as nuisance" taxes took S72,000,O 900
a year out Of the pockets of the aver
age family and the woman of the fam
lily paid the bulk of it.
No one is more aware of the fact
that they no longer pay a tax on phon-
ographs, pianos, and other musical in
struments than the women of the
household. No one is more aware than
the women of the household that the
children no longer have to pay tax
on footballs, fishing tackle, baseballs
and other sporting goods of all kinds.
Those taxes took from the average
families $36,000,000 a year.
All of those taxes were repealed by
the new tax bill which Democratic
women are informed did not reduce
their taxes one cent. So
The women of the household are
the buyers. They handle the family
budget. They know full well the drain |
that was made upon the family pock-
etbook by the hundred and one"
taxes which the new tax bill repealed. |
They know that the cost of shipping
goods which they bought of the but
cher, the baker and candlestick MAX
sr was added to the price which they
we're compelled to pay. They realize
he truth of the old adage that "the
consumer pays the freight" The new
ak bill repealed all the taxes on
reight and also on goods shipped by
express or parcel post. The repeal of
hese taxes alone is saving the aver
lge families living on a salary or a
wage more than a million dollars each
lay of the year, including Sundays.
Women travel about as much as
men and they are perfectly aware that
he new tax law repealed the tax upon
passenger tickets. The repeal Of this
ak saves the travelling public quar-
er Of a million dollars each day.

Aggie Boys Study
Sweet Potatoes

Farmers throughout the State have
a problem confronting them in the
marketing of sweet potatoes for it is
questionable if the price received at
present is sufficient to cover costs Of
production.
The Vocational Agricultural class in
the High School at Laurel has been
studying the Marketing Of Sweet PO-
tatoes." And to this end each boy
found out from his home farm and
from neighboring farms, total Of
about thirty farms, what the cost of
producing a bushel Of sweet potatoes
has been during this past season.
Each boy set out to find the inter-
est per year on the value Of the land
used. the cost Of blowing, narrowing,
ridging, fertilizing, cultivating, hoe
ing, slips, digging, hauling, baskets,
etc. Then they arrived at an average
cost per acre and the average yield,
therefore they determined a rather
definite estimate of the cost Of pro-
ducing a bushel. This figure in turn
tells at how much they can sell to COW
er the costs and to make profit.
The class also found that it is bet
ter business for them to store the po-
tatoes then to sell them at present.
instruction Of this sort in our
schools is rather economic for it is
practical for the boy and for all the
farmers of the community. And these
departments of Vocational Agricul- !
ture are continually studying the
problems in farming in the commun-
tiles in which they are located.

Stop to Think

THAT it is said that the health Of the
people is their greatest asset.
THAT emphasis is often put in the
wrong place.
THAT the world often forgets that a

THAT what matters the wealth man

to enjoy it?
THAT good health is not only an es-
sential to industrial success, but for
the enjoyment Of life itself.
THAT freedom from sickness and in
