BEST GAME OF SEASON.

In one OF the fastest exhlbl-
tions of basketball seen on the
local floor this season, the Cot
tonwood high school went down
to defeat before the Lapwai
team by the close score of 25 to
20.
Although the Lapwai team
led the locals throughout the en-
tire game, at no time was their
score more than five points
ahead of the Cottonwood tally.
There was no scoring for the
first seven minutes of play.
The guarding of both teams
was close, and as a result long
shots were resorted to. At this
the visitors excelled, and Wright
at forward succeeded in caging
seven field goals. For the locals
Schinnick was the stellar player,
scoring eight long baskets from
difficult angles.
The Cottonwood team was
handicapped by loss of the star
center, Minis, who was out of
the play, except for the last ten
minutes. An injury received
in a game two weeks ago has
prevented his play to great ex-
tent.
The lineup Of the teams:
Lapwai-Forwards, A. Da-
wald and Wright; center. Nelson
guards, G. Dawald and Parkins.
Cottonwood-Forwards Frank
and Schnnick; center, Tacke; I;
guards, Rink and Hattrup, Sub
stitute, Minis for Hattrup.
Scoring: Frank a, Schinnick

kips 2.
Referee, John Wagner.
Reubens Easily Defeated.
The Cottonwood boys had no
trouble in defeating Reubens
tonight. the score being 80 to
20. The local boys took the
lead from the start and at no
time was the outcome in doubt.
The lineup:
Cottonwood-Forwards Shin
nick and Peterson; center Wag-
ner; guards, Johnson and Hat

If there are several sending stations

often a very good plan to run several
aerial wires at right angles or radiat-
ing as shown in figures IL and 12, con-
Meeting them together and running the
lead-in from the point where all Join,
as shown. Sometimes this principle
may be reversed and several lead-ins
may be carried from the outer ends
of the radiating aerials and Joined
to form a single lead-in and will bring
even better results, figures 13 and IA.
These several lead-ins may be con-

that you can largely cut out stations

ment is not expected to run many
risks, for the farmer is allowed to
borrow an amount no greater than
one-half the average value of his
product for the previous twenty-five
years. But prices have risen so high
since 1896 that the farmer could Dor
row on most products much less than
half the present value of the products.
1t would be much less, therefore,
than the farmer could borrow directly
from the banks on graded products;
ment loans would be made, for there
would be no way of determining the
twenty-fve-year price average.
However, the farmer, having OBJ
tained the stipulated Government
loan on his goods, could then offer his
equity certificate to bank for an ad-
ditional loan. But the equity certiti-
cate is virtually a second mortgage,
and no bank would prefer second
mortgage to first mortgage.
Suppose the Old National Bank
was willing to lend farmer eight
hundred dollars on one thousand
bushels of wheat! Suppose, however,
the farmer deposited the wheat In
Federal warehouse and obtained five
hundred dollars from the Government.
Certainly the bank would not lend
the farmer three hundred dollars on
the equity certificate, The protec-
ton of the bank would be greater IL
the farmer relied on the bank for the
entire loan; for in that case the bank
could realize on its security without
being obliged to pay five hundred dol
lars TO get the wheat out of Govern
ment storage. The farmer can now
borrow more money from bank on
standardized farm products than
under the Edison plan"

A GOOD way TO
UPSET PRICES
Further Exposures Of How Edi-
son-Ford Money Plan Would
Fail to Aid Farmer.

The way the Edison-Ford "commod-
ity money" scheme, aimed to stabilize
monetary values, would have exactly
the opposite effect, is discussed in the
present article, which is the second in
a series prepared by the American
Bankers Association, reviewing the ex-
posure of the weaknesses Of the plan
as presented by William T. Foster, Di-
rector of the Pollack Foundation for
Economic Research.
Briefly stated, the Edison-Ford plan
provides for Government warehousing
of basic commodities, against which
currency would be loaned to the pro-
ducer without interest, up to half the
average value of the products for the
previous twenty-five years. This
currency would be cancelled as the
commodities were withdrawn and
passed into trade. On the other half OF
the value the producer would receive
equity certificates" which he could
sell or use for bank loans. On these
points Mr.. Foster says:
Upsettins Price Equilibrium
STEADY price levels depend mainly
on the balance between the volume
of goods on the market and the vol
ume of money offered for goods.
The Edison plan is designed express
ly to upset the balance. A farmer de-
livers, say, two thousand bushels of
wheat to the Government warehouse
and the Government delivers one
thousand dollars in new money to the
farmer. When the farmer sells the
wheat he repays the loan and the Gov
arnment destroys the money. Thus
the volume of money is increased
precisely when goods are stored; and
the volume of money is decreased pre-
cisely when these goods are marketed.
In other words, each transaction be-
gins by placing in circulation goods
without money to match the goods
Dollar demand is created as the sup
ply of goods is withdrawn; the sup
ply Of goods is created as dollar de-
mand is withdrawn.
would it enable the farmer to bor-
row more money on his products
than he can now borrow? When Mr..
Edison contends that farmers would
obtain larger loans on their crops
than they can now obtain from banks,
he is confronted by this dilemma:
Either the banks are now refusing
to make sound loans, or, under the
Edison plan. the Government would
make unsound loans.
Neither Mr.. Edison nor Mr.. Ford
can consistently contend that banks
now refuse to make sound loans, for
that is the way banks make most OF
their profits, and Mr.. Edison and Mr..
Ford have no doubt that banks are
conducted for profit. 1t follows that
the plan would yield larger loans to
farmers only II the Government met
the risks OF unsound banking. In that
case all that insolvent borrowers
gained would be paid by the rest Of
the population. which. to say the least,
is not fair deal.

TOULOUSE is LARGEST GOOSE
Adult Gander Weighs 26 Pounds and
Fowls Can Be Raised In Small
Numbers on Farms.

The Toulouse and the Embden are
the most popular breeds of geese in
this country. The Toulouse Is the
largest breed, the adult gander weigh
ing % pounds and the goose 20 pounds.
Geese can be raised in small num-
bers successfully and at profit on
many farms where there Is low, rough
pasture land containing a natural sup
ply of water.
They need house only during cold
or stormy weather, when an open shed
should be provided.
Large boxes, barrels, or shelters are
provided as nests for geese, or they
are allowed to make nests ON the floor
of the house.
Feed mash in the morning of equal
parts by weight of corn meal, bran,

REMEDY FOR POULTRY MITES
sIoed Sucking Parasites Live Entirely
on Blood Of FowI-CoaI-
Products Effective.

CPrsparsd by the United Slater Department
of Agricuturt.)
VI all parasites affecting poultry,
ordinary poultry mites are probably
the most troublesome and destructive
unless kept under control, says the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture. Unlike the lice, poultry mites
are bloodsucking parasites and live
entirely on the blood of the fowl. They
are very small and when not filed
with h,ood are gray in color and are
called gray mites. However when
they have been on the body of the
fowl and filled themselves with blood
they look red and are calied red mites.
They do not stay on the fowls body
all the time, like lice, but during the
day hide away in cracks and crevices.
behind boards that are near the roosts.
In the cracks of brood coops, and in
other places. At night when the fowls
and chicks go to roost the mites come
out of their hiding places, crawl onto
the birds, and suck the blood from
their bodies. The irritation and loss
Of blood causes mature fowls to be-
come pale in comb and wattles and
poor In flesh; sitting hens may desert
, their nests and spoil their eggs. if they
do not die on the nests, and chickens
become weak and droopy and in many
/ instances die from the attacks.
Since poultry mites hide away in
cracks and crevices during the day,
the first thing that should be doae
to get rid Of them is to give the poultry
houses, roosts nests, ETC., a good clean
ing. After the cleaning, spray thor
oughly with kerosene, crude oil. or
some effective coal-tar preparation,
making sure that the spray reaches all
the cracks and crevices and every
other place where the mites might
be hiding. This coal-tar preparation
is most effective and lasts longest. It
can be purchased locally with full
directions for mixing and use. 1t Is
necessary to spray thoroughly and
often, especially during warm weather,
if the mites are to be kept from an
noying the fowls.
