BUY AND KISS AT HOME

There is a good story of man
who found himself bankrupt and came
home to tell his better half She did
not seem so wonderfully surprised as
he expected, and asked him to &c
to the bank with her where she op
ened deposit box and showed him a
great stack of bills, sufficient to put
him back on his feet. Whose is it?''
asked the man. at is ours" replied
the wife.
And his wonderment much increas-
ed he asked how she got it, and how
she saved so much. "You remember
that when we were married you prom
ised me 81 for every kiss; you always
kept your word. l saved the money,
and this is the result" In his aston
ishment the man exclaimed. "lwish
I had done all my kissing at home.
There's a fine illustration of trad
ing at home. Every dollar you
spend in your home town remains
there and helps your town. Every
dollar you spend out of town makes
the town that much poorer.
Do your buying-and kissing at
home and the money will be as bread
cast upon the waters. When most
needed it will be there 10 help you

THOUSAND SPRINGS LAND AND
IRRIGATION LAND RELINQUISHED

BOISE, October % State Recla-
nation Commissioner Warren G.
Swendsen has just completed a piece
of cleanup work which will mean
much for the state of Idaho. He re-
Gently relinquished back to the fed
eral government 6,371.7 acres of land
set aside in 1910 for a Carey act pro
ject known as the Thousand Springs
Land and Irrigation Company in Gus
ter County which has never material
lied The statutory time for furnish
ing the water supply has been exhaus-
ted; the company admits its inability
to complete the project and water a.
valuable may be used to better ad-
vantages on other tracts.
1t is the policy of the federal gov
eminent to open such tracts to en-
try and it is the opinion of Commits
sioner Swendsen that war veterans
will be given the first opportunity in
this connection.
This REIMBURSEMENT is a type of
the work of the Reclamation depart
ment in cleaning up old projects and
either getting them in shape for en-
try and actual use or relinquishing
the land back TO the government so
that it may be available for homestead
entry. Reclamation permits are not
issued without the most careful In
vestigation of the Reclamation de-
partment as to water and the advis-
ability of such construction and to
the cost of maintenance.
The project is located near Chilly.
