DAIRY BUSINESS
SHOWS INCREASE

That the dairy business is steadily
increasing in the Rupert district is
shown by the report of the Idaho
Creamery and four cream stations,
which shows that during the month
of April $5,716.OS was paid to local
farmers for cream. The month prev
ious less than $4,000 had been paid.

during the month was 38 cents,
1902 pounds being received. One

MANAGEMENT

The Santa Fe railroad has adopted
the plan which several large indus

RADIO NO LONGER A p1AYTHINe

When a Mountain Home boy can
sit down at table in his own home
and talk by radio with boys in Iowa,
Pennsylvania and other states, and
probably in the near futures, with
other nations, he is pretty likely to
be more interested in that than in
the pool room down the street.
Two years ago radio was con-
sidered more as a plaything for the
amateur electrical inventor except
where it was used by government
experts. Today it is almost house
hold word and the present genera
ton of youngsters discuss radio APP
paratus, broadcasting stations, ETC.,
in language which their elders do
not understand
Radio as a means of reaching
every nook and corner of the world
instantly is going to be one of the
greatest civiIiing Influences ever
bestowed upon mankind.
Don't laugh at the boy when he
talks about radio. Help him set up
his little set and take an interest in
it yourself, and before you know it
you will be talking the same lam
guage as the boy and interesting
In affairs you never dreamed |
Of.

In the desert grim and gray;
, The curls of her brow by the sa'

And the ground owls called-oh, the

Their song with its bitter rune;
Farewell! Farewell! Farewell for

Through the dusk of the deepening

On the lips of air came the breath

Which swept the edge of the little

As the feet of queen are covered

In the silken folds of her gown;
While the purple played like ghostly
magic
On the foothills far and brown.

rabbit;
The honk of geese that were flying
south;
And the steps of Night who shook
about us
Her hair with prayer on her mouth
A whirl of dust in the distance lift

Ger the dragon land Of drouth.
Her face was white as the lilies

AS if they had drunk of Lotus wine;
And her form was fair as slender
aspen,
With the grace of a muontain pine,
And her eyes with their tears and
girlish questions

Her throat was caught in fringe
of laces,
And a rosebud hid in her hair;
With a little chain which looped her
bosom,
And an opal red and rare;
But more than this was the inner
fire
OF our first young despair.
We had dreamed the dream that is
fatal ever,
In Persian palace or Hesper Land,
With the crouching sphinx to whis-
per riddles
Which none may understand;
For our hearts were not with the
fateful lever
Which never knew command.
