RETURN FROM TRIP

H. H. Eaton and Miss Nellie Lu
and the Rev. and Mrs. C. E. Mason
arrived home from Moscow Wednes-
day evening, Mrs. Eaton remaining
for a couple of weeks. Going by
way of the Blue Mountains, they re-
turned over the North and South
highway of the Salmon river,
through Grangeville and New Mea-
dows, all the way in Idaho, scenic
route, with highway except about
25 miles on which work is being con-
tinued.
The university Commencement was
pronounced the best in the history
0 fthe institution. The past year the
attendance was largely in excess of
other years and the prospect for the
next year is very promising. A new
science building is being construc-
ted.

TRUCKING LAMBS
IN LARGE NUMBERS

The trucking Of lambs to the
Mountain Home stock yards for ship
ment to market has now assumed
large proportions. owing to the dry
weather in the owyhee county ter
ritory, it is impossible to trail the
animals to shipping points, and it
has been found by experiment that
the trucks can transport the lambs
without loss, delivering them in
good condition.
Within the last two weeks fifty
carloads have been delivered to the
local loading yards south of the city,
and shipments are continuing.
Sheep owners are finding out that
Home possesses advan-
tages as shipping point for sheep
and lambs which no other point can
claim, and are taking advantage Of
The fact.

WANT BORAH FOR
VICE PRESIDENT
Idaho SOlOn Is Adamant, However,
and Refuses to Allow Name
Used-All Coolidge

As we go to press Thursday after
noon the Republican National con-
vention is under way at Cleveland,
with the only thing in doubt as to
who will be President Coolidge's run
ming mate.
Senator Borah is the choice of the
administration forces, but the Idaho
Solon has absolutely declined to have
his name presented to the eonven-
tion. AS a matter of fact, no poll
tician seem to wish to sacrifice him
self upon the party altar.
Ex-senator Kenyon of Iowa is al
so probable candidate for the Of
fee, with Hoover also mentioned.
The platform prepared contains
nothing of a startling nature, but It
is evident that it does not suit the
faction of which Senator Robert La
Toilette is the head, and this is the
feature which is causing the Re
publicans uneasiness.
President Coolidge will be unop-
posed for the nomination, as the
Johnson boom was punctured early
in the game The administration,
however, fears to nominate Hoover
for yiee-president, as it might be
construed as a slap at Johnson, and
the Republicans have no trouble in
remembering what happened to
Hughes in California eight years ago.
The high lights jim the platform
endorsed are:
Highest endorsement of the ad-
ministration of Harding and Cool
idge;
Pledge to maintain the integrity
OF the budget system and continue
the policy of strict economy;
Pledge tax reforms with revision
of the tax law;
Opposition to further issuance OF
securities;"
Pledge to give American farmers
all necessary assistance;
Endorsement OF the immigration
law without the japanese exclusion
clause;
Flat endorsement of the Harding
plan OF joining the
world court;
Declaration to extend every aid TO
disabled veterans, with no mention

worked for the Idaho Power Co. here
for some time after spending some
months in France with the A. E. F.
Floyd Dunning is also working in
Coalinga. He left to join his broth
er about nine month sago and will
be remembered as one of the "call

is working in the oil fields. Both

Club connected with the Episcopal
church here.

WEEKLY WEATHER sUMMA RY

Southwest Idaho: The outstand-
ing feature of last weeks weather
was the general rain that fell over
the State Friday night and satur-
day. In this district only moderate
amounts fell, but it was the first
rain of any consequence since April
Sd and it was very welcome. 1t
freshened pastures and meadows and
was very beneficial to grain. Some
alfalfa was caught in the swath or
windrow, but no great damage re-
suited. Early in the week tempera-
lures were about normal, but later
there was a sharp change to cooler
weather and temperatures near
freezing were recorded in many To-
calities. Light to heavy frosts oc-
Cured in exposed places. but occa-
stoned only nominal damage for the
most part. In the Twin Falls sec
tion there is complaint that early
planted potatoes have rotted in the
ground and that sugar beets have
been damaged by white fly and cut
worms. In many instances the dam
aged crops are being replaced by
beans. Apples and prunes are doing
we'll.

THE SHEEP MARKET

ogden-The sheep market has
been dull with very few offerings on
sale. No change was noted in prices.
Four decks of buck and eve lambs
averaging rs pounds cashed at $12,
while a part load of shorn wethers
sold at $6.
North Salt Practically all
arrivals of sheep for the past week
were in transit to ranges. The mar
ket is quoted nominally steady.
San Franciseo-Only six cars of
dressed lambs sent east from San
Francisco during week ending June
T. Estimate about half as many from
Los Angeles. Movement to date
about 10000 head.

INCOME TAX ON
CORPORATIONS

There appears to be a misunder-
standing as to the amount of in
come tax imposed upon corporations
by the Revenue Act Of 1924, Your
attention is directed to the fact that
under the provisions Of Section 2SO
OF the Act the income tax on cor
porations is 121z per cent, which is
the same rate of tax applicable for
the taxable year of 1928. Corpora
tions, therefore, are not permitted to
take as credit any reduction in
tax for the payment due June 10, or
any subsequent installment due. The
credit of 25 per cent is limited to
individuals, and fiduciaries who are
required to file returns on Forms
1910 or 1O4OA.

FLAG DAY

June IA, 1924, our flag will be
lat years old. 1t was sewed by Bet
ty Ross, in the year 1875, but did
not have it's official firth until June
IA, 1777, when Congress adopted the
design. 1t is a symbol of power and
protection and the crowning glory
of the Republic. 1t should receive
from each one of us every kind Of
honor and respect. 1t always must
be carried upright; see that it never
touches the ground. Do not use It
as a table covering, whip or staff.
Nothing but out Bible should rest
upon it. No hands must touch it
roughly No hands shall touch it
irreverently! Our flag should be
raised at sunrise and lowered at sun
set. 1t is too sacred to be used for
any purpose other than that of pa
triotic intent and should never be-
used for any advertisements. Al
ways remember to bear the American
flag is an honor, to own one is a sa-
cred trust.
On June IA let US all see that Flag
Day is recognized by a display Of
flags in the homes and public build
ings, not forgetting to have the
school children salute the flag and
give the Pledge of Allegiance.-Mrs.
Clarice Parker, National Patriotic /
Instructor, Daughters Of Veterans Of
Civil War.
THE PLEDGE
l pledge allegiance to my flag and
to the Republic for which it stands.
One nation indivisible, with liberty
and justice to all.
For the little folks:
1 give my head and my heart to
Cod and my country. One country,

The impression seems to be held
by many that the property owner
may wait until July 1 to pay taxes
without mourning a penalty, but this
is an erroneous idea.
Pay your taxes on or before June
21 and be safe.

This news about the success of

through the industry. Here in our

talk it.
The men and women who have
driven the new Essex far enough to
discover its full abilities are the best
advertisers we have. The wave Of
success is here. No car which the
Hudson Essex organization ever pro-
duced met with the welcome which
has been accorded this Essex Six.
We are facing spring shortage.

engineers say that in all useful driv-

smoothness are remarkable.
