matter and the following radio laws and regulation will be of aid to the would be" amateurs.
 The owner of an amateur radio transmitting station must obtain a station license before 1t can be operated if the signals there radiated can be heard in another state; and, also if such a station Is of suf- ficient power ito cause interference with neishboring licensed stations in the receipt of signals from trans hitting stations outside of the state These regulations cover the operation of both radio telephone and radio telegraph stations.
 Station licenses can only be is- sued to citizens of the United States, It's territories, and dependencies.
 Transmitting stations must be operated under the supervision of Q person holding an operators license. The party in whose name the station is licensed is responsible for all it's activities.
 All stations are re- ouired to use the minimum amount of power necessary to carry on sue cessful communication. This means that while an amateur station IS permitted to use, when circumstances require, an input of one kilowatt, this input should be reduced or other means provided for lowering the zntenna energy when communicating with nearby stations. in which case full power is not needed.
 It is only by the obeying of these rules that radio may be bettered' You will aid the local station owners by abiding by these laws.

GET PRIZE GAR OF
seed POTATOES
WASHBURN & WILSON BUY PRIZE
WINNING SPUDS OF PACIFIC
NORTHEAST SHOW.

The Washburn C Wilson Seed COM
pany, in keeping with their policy of
developing the best products possible
in the Inland Empire have purchased
the car of Melted Gem seed potatoes
which took the grand sweepstakes
prize at the Northwest Potato Show
in Spokane recently The potatoes
were grown by J. j. Stutz of Dudley,
Idaho. and, as is indicated, won over
potatoes of all classes at the show,
and are perhaps the finest car of
seed potatoes ever produced in the
northwest. There were several bid
ders for the potatoes, but the local
firm, realizing their value, succeed
ed in securing them.
Herman Wilson, manager of the
Washburn & Wilson company, states
that the potatoes are among the finest
he has ever seen. being almost per-
fest in every respect. The bulk of
the car will be used to supply grow
ers with whom the company makes
contracts this year, but there will be
some available for other groves.
Northern Idaho has come to be
recognized as the ideal place for
growing seed potatoes, and the in
1ustry promises to develop with great
rapidity. The seed for use in the
irrigated sections of Idaho and Wash
ington is grown, to a great extent, in
he Inland Empire, and especially in
north Idaho.

KENDRICKlFILES|
1.-TWO |SUITSMONDAY
FIRST ACTION TO ABATE NUS
ANCE-SEC0ND SEEKS TO
QUIET TITLE

The village of Kendrick filed two
suits Monday in the Latah county
district court. The first action in
naming Emulus R.. Brown and his
wife, Bessie Brown, as defendants
seeks the abatement of an alleged
nuisance. The second complaint filed
by Kendrick seeks to quiet title to the
Gordon spring and names John IT.
Reed, his wife, Addie Reed, and w. T.
Rieckhoff as defendants.
In the first complaint the plaintiff
alleges that defendants are owners of
block 10 of the original townsite of
Kendrick and that on the property is
an old, delapidated and partially torn
down barn and stable. Plaintiff asks
for permission to abate the nuisance
and to tear down the building at the
expense of the defendants, IN the
grounds that the building is a fire
trap and is, in general, a public
nuisance.
In seeking to quiet the title to the
Gordon" spring, held by the village
of Kendrick through it's grantor, the
Kendrick Water and Power company,
the plaintiff asks that the defendants
bring into court their adverse claims
to the spring for settlement by the

MANY REASONS
FOR PROHIBITION
NATIONAL ENFORCEMENT BU-
REAU GIVES LONG LIST OF
IRREFUTABLE FACTS.

Washington, Jan. 14-Facts an(
figures, together with IAN even doze1
unquestiOned points in proof that the
eighteenth amendment is being en-
forced were made public tonight by
prohibition Commissioner Haynes il
a statement on the eve of the second
anniversary Of the national prohibit
ton act, which became effective jan
uary 16, 1920.
The twelve points cited as $50 out
standing that no attempt can be made
in denial" follow:
Disappearance of the open drink
ing in public dining rooms.
Passing Of the treating evil which
was recognized as the greatest con-
tributing agency in the development
of liquor appetite.
Closing of whiskey cure and sim
liar institutions.
Increased savings accounts.
"Record-breaking Christmas busi-
ness.
Decreased drunkeness
"PrOhibitive prices on bonded
liquor for beverage use.
Dangerous character of illicit
whiskey.
sSurreptitiousness of present-day
drinking.
s'Wall of bowling minority who
would go to the length of undermine
ing the constitution to nullify an
amendment which their action dem
onstrates is in actual effect.
Changed attitude of former hos
tile statesman, political leaders and
the press"
Mr.. Haynes declared that the pro-
hibition amendment was being en-
forced to an even greater extent than
had been anticipated and predictions
of opponents had not been borne out
actualities.
''The chief cause of non-enforce-
ment," he said, twas the appointment
of wet officials and smuggling. This
is being corrected by the appointment
of officials who are in sympathy with
the law and by serving notice on our
neighboring countries that their flags
are being used to protect smugglers."
He declared enforcement would
henceforth be a much easier under
taking for various reasons, including
the attitude of the public, curtailing
of sources of supply, closer coopera-
ton of all enforcement agencies and
the poisonous, death-dealing char
acter of practically all illicit liquor
now on the market"
Arrests for drunkenness, he de-
clared, have decreased so percent.
Mr.. Haynes estimated that 17,500,-
900 drinkers have quit liquor.
Assert Sailors Killed in Fight.
Biloxi, Miss.-(A. P)-The dis
covery of the bodies of two men, ap-
parently foreign sailors, on the beach
here, has led to ten arrests by the
local police, who assert that the men
were killed in a fight, following the
attempt last week to hold up and raid
a liquor smuggling schooner, at
anchorage near the coast.

COLUMBUS CLARK WILL
COMPLETE POWELL. HILL GRADE

At a meeting of the Kendrick High
way commissioners last Saturday the
contract for finishing the new grade
around Powell hill was given to Coll
umbus Clark of Juliaetta, who has
agreed to finish the grade for $4,000.
The price is believed to be very
reasonable one and could only be Sc
cured because Of the fact that Mr..
Clark has a number of idle teams
that he wants to keep at work He
is also personally interested in seeing
a first class road between Kendrick
and Juliaetta and has always been
willing to assist in obtaining it.
The contract calls for a road 16
feet wide and not to exceed per cent
grade. Such road will be marked
over the present grade
which is narrow and steep. The com
pletion of this short strip of road will
be big step toward a uniform grade
and roadbed connecting the two
towns
Mr. Clark expects to start the work
some time within the next week or so
and will rush it to completion so that
his teams will be available for the
spring farm work.-Kendrick Gazette.
