There has been many failures among
farmers, but the and has never fail
ed in Power County, according to j. F.
Kosanke who expresses deep interest
this week is bringing new and exper-
fenced farmers to this section of Ida
no. Failures have been due to several
causes he asserts and were to be ex-
pected. The first fact that many ORR
ginal settlers Abandoned their farms
is not a direct reflection on the coun-
try but a reflection on themselves as
individuals. Mr.. Kosanke claims that
a farmer that cannot succeed in Pow
er County cannot succeed anywhere be-
cause it isn't in him to succeed.
Health seekers, school teachers,
bank clerks, mechanics and soldiers of
fortune do not, as a general rule make
good farmers, he claims. Farming is
a business that requires a certain
kind of good business judgment. Hence
it is natural that a great many of the
original settlers in the county should
have failed. Their failure is a repition
of a chapter that can be written about
any new country.
Our best farmers are still on the
farm continues Mr.. Kosanke, "and as
prosperity dawns they stand in line
for the profits they deserve. These
people have not wanted to get rich
over night or in a year or two. They
have taken things gradually and have
been better able to wheather the fl
nancial shoals and so called hard
times.
my belief is, that we should now
join hands and do everything possible
to make our neighbors and ourselves
feel more contented, prosperous and
happy. If we are to succeed as we
all do expect to succeed, we must have
complete faith in our town, in our
country and in our fellow men,

A VERY u RANGE

We have sold Hughes Model 40 for
years and it has been a very popular
range, because it is very compact, re-
quiring a minimum of space in the kit

any size.

and two-burner oven, which is set high
enough for convenience, both for bak-
ing and for warming purposes.

 Whereas, the Jewish people hars for many centuries believed in and yearned for the rebuilding of their ancient home land. and
 ''Whereas, owing to the outcome of the World war and their part therein Jewish people under definite and ade- quate international guarantees are to be enabled with due regard to the rights of all elements of the population of Paies- tine and to the sanctity of it's holy places to create and reorganize a national home in the land of their fathers, therefore, be 1t

Not Starting Track Laying Yet

No attempt has yet been started to lay the trolley tracks from the Thames river highway bridge to the new Cry stal avenue bridge in New London, as part of the link connecting the city's lines with the contemplated route to Groton, though preliminary steps have been taken as evidenced by presence of equipment in that neighborhood.
