OUTLOOK OF LOCAL
 POST NOT BRIGHT American Legion Members Show Little Interest in Activities MEETING IS SCHEDULED
Drum Corps to Hold Reorganization Meeting Tonight - Farmcrs' EN- change Meets, But Has No Quorum -Triangles Lose Game.

The outlook for tho coming season in Bottom Kasica post, American le' zion, is not particularly bright, ac- cordlng to Commander James F. Corr, who stated this morning that meet ing of tho post is scheduled for next week, Thursday evening, hut whether or not the meeting will be held is not known. He appeared to be discour- aged at the outlook and is Of the opin- ion that the post is about dead.
 Mr. Corr stated that he would sec some of the active members of the Berlin organization this evening and would endeavor to arrange a meeting for next Thursday evening.
 Tn spite of all that can be done by Inc officers Of the post the members still show no interest in the activities and there arc few who support tho Iost in what it is doing. By looking at tho roll Of honor in front of the town hall ,one can get an idea Of how many members the post has. If they compare the list with the average Of six that usually attend meetings they can sec the condition of the organi- 1ation.
 Bolton Kasica post, with the mem bers it has, could be one Of the liyest branches of the Legion in the state, if Inc members would stick together. but as thc commander says. they take no interest and seem to place pleasures before tho business on meeting nights. not caring to sacrifice anything to get important business transactions.
 Complain Of Punchboards
 Several complaints regarding punch toards have come to the cars Of fhe Berlin authorities during the past few days According 10 the complaints. several young boys have been going about the town with the boards and have been cndeavoring 10 get citizens to take changes on them.

WHY NoT9

In a recent statement Senator Pitt
man. of Nevada, said:
Il do not believe that American sill
yer win ever again so below 81 an
ounce The ultimate disposal Of the
silver question will be an international
agreement fixing its value"
With a gold supply inadequate to
back up the currency OF many coun-
tries. it seems as II silver, the next
most precious metal 10 gold. offers the
logical foundation for stabilizing the
monetary systems of the world.
II the price of gold can be set so
that II has uniform value. why cam
not the price Of silver be set in tho
same manner?
This question is of great interest to
western mines and the subject is well

just completed an inspection tour OF
the Boise and Payette valleys. The
inspection showed that the dealers are
handling only the best seed obtainable
for the most part and they are to be
commended upon the quality stocks
they are placing in their bins for the
spring trade.
The farmers also are to be COM
mended for demanding tested, weed
seed-free products. Several dealers
commented upon the fact that they
could not sell seed badly infested with
weed seeds and that when 99qo pure
seed was offered to them they wanted
to know what was in the other 10.
1t all goes to show that the farmers
are realizing that the few cents more
per acre it takes to plant pure seed
win mean dollars to them when the
crop is sold in the fall.

WHERE THE MONEY GOES

There used to be a man In ever
town In the United States who made
a speciality OF loaning money on farms
or for building purposes. Today he
has disappeared and the funds which
were thus available for farm and
home building have been withdrawn.
The reason is simple-the man who
used to loan money on farms paid an
income tax on the return therefrom
ms well as every other form OF taxa
tion that could be assessed against
him. Today he puts his money into
tax-exempt city. county. state or ma
tional bonds and escapes tax-free on
his income
The bonds which maintain the fed
eral farm loan banks are tax exempt
but only very limited number Of
farmers can get money from this fund
" hich favors a special few.
The growth OF tax-exempr issues,
under government authority has been
so rapid that private industry and the
private citizen is today carrying a
billions of public bonds may remain
tax-free and absorb the wealth OF the
nation which would otherwise be In
vested in productive industry.
