FINE CATTLE ARRIVING
IN G00DING SECTION

Gooding Leader: A shipment of
fourteen registered Holstein, Guern-
sey and Jersey bulls is expected to
arrive here this week. They are
coming from the famous dairy sec
ton of Western Oregon and the pur-
chase has been made by Riley
Thorpe. well known Bliss dairyman.
The bulls range from eight months
to two years old and are already
placed among the dairymen of this
vicinity by o. E. Mcconnell, the
county agent. In the same shipment
it is expected that there will be at
least a dozen high grade Jersey
COWS, the most of which will be dis
tributed among farmers near Bliss.
Messrs. Mcconnell and E. B. Bolte
of this city and Mr.. Thorpe are in
immediate charge of the arrange
ments and the financing of the en-
terprise is being handled by the First
National Bank and the North Side
Cattle Loan Co.
Accompanying Mr.. Thorpe was w.
r. Burkhardt of Bliss, who while in
Oregon purchased for himself fifty
three high grade Jersey heifers,
yearlings, and one registered bull,
which consignment arrived at Bliss
Friday last.

HAVE GOOD STATIONERY
PRINTED FOR YEAR 1928

Why not resolve to have some dis
tinetive stationery printed for your
use in 1928?
A business house in its correspond
ence is judged to a great extent by
the kind of stationery it uses. A
letter written under rubber stamp
heading, or an envelope bearing the
return address smeared on with a
rubber stamp does not command the
respect that good printing will bring
forth.
The Republican Office can furnish
you with commercial printing that
is hastily gotten up and can furnish
you with letter heads and state
ments to match your envelopes.
No commercial work is too small
for us to give it our time, nor too
large for us to handle.

GETS FINE GUERNSEY BULL

Gooding Leader: L. G. Perry, the
well-known Wendell dairyman, last
week shipped to Theron Lafferty of
Caldwell a fine Guernsey yearling
bull. Mr.. Perry donated the animal
owing to the fact that Mr.. Lafferty is
an ex-seTvice man who is one of the
trainees of the agricultural depart
ment of the United States Veterans
bureau and is trying to establish a
Guernsey dairy herd. The arrange
ments for this splendid gift were
made by Homer Hudelson, formerly
of this city, who is now in the field
working for this department of aid
to crippled ex-serVice men.

read subconsciously the appeal thai
the advertiser sets forth and by con-
tinuous advertising these same men
women and children are so impressed
and educated to the qualities of the
production that they, without hesi-
tation, call it by name, knowing
what it is, its value, its price, and
all about it. why? Because they
have been sold by advertising, uni
versally known as the silent sales
man.
Mr.. Dealer, the same applies to
your business. For example, suppos-
ing your competitive dealer adver-
tises in each edition of your local
newspaper, while you insert an ad,
say, once in every two or three
months, out of courtesy to the pub
Usher, who is a personal friend of
yours, while a prospect who lives
close to your place of business is in
the market for goods in your line OF
business. He has been reading your
competitors ad and knows what he
sells and where to go to buy it. AL
though you handle perhaps the bet
ter quality Of merchandise. yet he is
not informed of this because you
have not told him through the me-
dunn of advertising. Likewise he
drives past your door; further on he
stops. The result being, you have
lost a sale because the prospect was
iold before he started to your COM
)etitor's, and you wonder, being
lealer in the same kind of merchan-
lise, why he did not stop TO see you
instead of going out Of his way. To
meet competition you must adyer-

How to Figure Your Income Tax

Inasmuch as it is now time to be
gin figuring up your income tax
The Republican gives the easiest
method of computing the same:
First take your home,
Add wife's income,
Divide by eldest sons age,
And add telephone number.
Subtract your auto license number,
Add electric light bill,
Divide by number kilowatts,
Multiply by your fathers age:
Add number of gold filings in
teeth,
Subtract your wife's age approx
imately).
Divide by number of aunts you
have,
Add number of uncles,
Subtract number of daughters.
Multiply by number of times you
have gone up in an airplane;
Subtract your best pinochle score,
Add a pinch Of salt,
And then go out and borrow the
money and pay the tax.

THE HOME PAPER

Ex-Governor Francis once said the
following of newspapers: Each
year the local paper gives from $500
to $1,000 in free lines to the COM
munity in which it Is located. No
other agency can or will do this. The
editor in proportion to his means
does more for his own town than any
other ten men, and in all fairness he
ought to be supported mot because
you like him or admire his writings,
but because the local paper is the
best investment community can
make. It may not be brilliantly ed
tied or crowded with thought, but
financially it is of more benefit to
the community than the preacher or
teacher Understand me, | do not
mean mentally, and yet on moral
questions you will find most of the
papers on the right side. Today the
editors of the local papers do the
most for the least money of any peo-
pie on EARTH"

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE
KEEPING BEES

Only a few short years ago the
sugar shortage reminded people all
over the country Of the real indie
pendence and comfort Of those who
had hives of bees working continu-
ously for them.
The bee owner has thousand OF
willing slaves toiling for him day
after day. And it has come to point
where the man who is really wise,
who is prudent, has bees, whether
he lives in the country, town or city.
The only thing really needed after
procuring the first swarm is a place
big enough to put a hive.
The blossoms of the alfalfa and
clover are particularly productive of
fine honey, and many Idaho owners
of bees bless the day that they pur-
chased their first stand.
The more people there are in every
community who keep bees, the more
prosperous the community is certain
to grow 1t means one more way of
saving money. and when people save
they are prosperous and helpful to
those about them.
The keeping of bees insures
against another sugar shortage, and,
incidentally. aids in keeping the
price of that commodity within the
reach of those who are, unfortun-
ately, housed up in city flats or no
tells where it is impossible to do so.
