The didikai-families in which the
proportion of genuine Gypsy blood is
much less than half, often have aut-
thentic pieces OF old jewelry. A man
who keeps a small store in Ohio,
whose fathers mother was a posh-
and-posh "a half-and-half gypsy) has
small but very perfect rubies in
carbuchon brooch, drop earrings OF

fittings, and money-belt, with coins

France. Of the fifteenth century.

but although I have taken an expert
to see him, who assured him that his
treasures are worth fifty thousand
dollars, he stubbornly refuses to sell.
That little drop Of the gypsy blood in
him makes him hold on to those bau-
bles. He knows that his grandmother
was poor as could be but that she
brought to her marriage these signs
Of her gypsy heritage and he Is de-
termined that in this one thing he Will
uphold the traditions.
The thing which makes the histor-
ians eager to have this great hoard,
or, at least, good examples Of 1t. for
study is that no matter whether the
work has been doom by French, Hun
garians, Balkan, Russian. English,
Spanish, Arabian or mid-Asiatic gyp-
sizes. the designs are the same, and
those designs faithfully follow pat
terms set by the goldsmith and jew
elry artif1cers Of ancient Egypt as
much as five thousand years ago.

DOING THINGS ON SHORT LINE

Another switch crew has added tt
the Short Line Nampa yard force yes
terday, making six crews now en-
ployed. The crew was put on to look
especially after local service so that
the many cars being loaded here
daily, may be promptly spotted for
the convenience of shippers. While
some cars are loaded at warehouses,
many others are loaded directly from
farmers auto trucks The new crew
will see that there is no delay in
placing the cars where they are
needed.
The gravel train with it's long
string of steel dump cars is running
every day between the gravel bank
at ClaytOnia, where a steam shovel
does the loading, to Reverse, where
the six miles of double track between
Reverse and Chalk is being ballasted.
This new track will be completed
and ready for service by August,

A HINT ON GROWING FLOWERS

II you are contemplating hayin,

time to prepare the ground. Of
course, you can plant them any ole
way and get some blooms, but
shall refer 70 the Ideal tulip or hya-
cinth bed. Select sunny location
and throw the first spading OF
ground to one side, making a pit
about eight inches deep, then put in
liberal quantity of we'll rotted
manure and spade as deep as Won
can, then spade it a second time.
after which shovel back enough of
the ground which has been removed
10 make the bed about three inches
higher than the surrounding ground
tnen add more manure and spade a
couple times again. In the fall
when you plant the bulbs, shovel out
about five inches of the dirt and Mace

replace the dirt removed. The adj
vantages in this manner of planting

plooming. Tulips or hyacinths make
by far the best display when all
oloom at once. Then II YOU wish to
piaht IN designs for special color eff
iect' you can go it much better this
way than to dig hole for each bulb
Never, at any time use coarse or
iumpy manure for bulbs of any kind
IL you make the bed now, Won can
use fresh manure if it is fine. but
IL you prepare the bed just before
planting. don't use any manure at
all II you can not get well rotted IF
the ground is inclined to be heavy.
the ADDITION of sand is quite bene-
flclal. There is a great variation IN
the time of blooming of the differ
ent varieties. The first to bloom is
he Cottage, second, May Towering

UNITED STATES Is

Contrasted with its disadvantage
GUS position with reference to cables
the United States is in a peculiarI,
good situation with regard to wire
less. Our location on the globe pre-
eminently fits us to be the radio
central of the world Europe and

sages are forwarded by US in the
proper direction, or relayed to South
America, as the case may be. London
is the heart Of the cable, but New
York Is the center OF the radio
world.
certain moral advantage that
we possess for domination of wireless
communication is that our country IL
recognized as the land of freedom
and the home of the square deal. The
smaller countries have longed for
direct connection with America nv a
means that cannot be censured, that
cannot be cut, nor delayed by third

with which lessor nations like Poland
are hurrying their power radio sta

LOOKING US OVER AND
LOOKING OURSELVES OVER
By Guy Flenner

The latest visit to Idaho Of Pres
ident Carl Gray of the Union Pa
cific is more significant than may
appear on the surface. Mr.. Gray is
one Of the busiest and biggest rail
executives in the United States. He
has done lot for us at his desk in
New York. Now he has come out,
not only to scoot through our coun-
try in a private car but to stop at
various communities and, moreover,
to go out into the fields and talk TO
our farmers, get their ideas on pro-
duction method, come into closer re-
lationship with their problems and
give them the best advice as to mar
keting and transportation within his
experience and knowledge.
The writer knows that President
Gray is not the only man of promi-
hence in the Financial and CONNER
cial world who has been looking us
over, although most of the others
have a different mission and do not
attract the same public attention as

operating head of the transportation
system serving our territory
Their visits may mean lot. A
great deal depends upon ourselves;
and because of that fact it is we'll
Tor us to look ourselves over, to

activities and determine whether or

alton, in our state.
