"The 1924 campaign ror Better
Homes in America was greater than
ever before. 1t reached every State
in the Union; it penetrated rural dis
tricts and towns and cities. F. teen
hundred local committees worked
with a most inspiring zeal for public
service to protect and raise the stand
ards not only of the home, but of the
community and the Nation as we'll.

American community will consider
participation. The movement con-

maker, every citizen. / bespeak ac-

groups interested in the home; of
public officials, schools, churches,
local civic associations. trade associa- :
tions and clubs. The home is the con-
Germ of all and every one should
welcome the opportunity to con-
tribute to its welfare. The local COM
mittees are widely representative and
strictly non-commercial in character,
thereby avoiding domination by any
one group, which would limit the
value of the campaign, They aim to
mobilize the best thought, informa-
tion and effort of the entire COM
munity to bring high standards of
housing and home life within the
reach of all.
1T is a task of profound impor-
tance for the welfare of America"
The chairmen of the local COM
mittees of Better Homes in America
are usually officers of civic leagues,
women's clubs, parent-teacher asso-
Citations and similar organizations for
public service. Letters appointing
local chairmen for the 1925 campaign
are now being sent out from the
national headquarters of Better
Homes in America in Washington.

BUILDING COSTS
LITTLE CHANGED
Construction Charges in 0c-
tober Almost Same as
Previous Month.

Standard measures O. construction
cost revealed little if any change during
october, one index continuing exactly
the same as in the previous month, and
another showing a decline Of less than
Cne-fourth of per cent since October l.
Apparent stabilizaton in building ma
terial prices seems to have beer
reached after the downward trend OF
the Summer months, and no abrupt
price changes are anticipated for the
early future, according to S. w. Strauss
Co. survey.
The lumber situation for the last two
or three weeks has been recovering
from the Summer slump. Although pro-
Guction. orders and shipment of yellow
pine for 1924 are less than for 1923, the
orders and shipments are increa sing,
and by the week ending October "a the
price weakness had disappeared and the
prices on some items were advancing.
The position of Douglas fir, however, re-
mains quiet except in the exporting line.
No great increase in lumber prices is
predicted, but there is a tendency for
Improvement as soon as the shipments
and production adjust themselves.
With the industry still running at
from 60 to 60 per cent of capacity, the
iron and steel markets showed some
hesitancy during the last month. while
awaiting the outcome of the election.
Beginning with the second week in Oc-
tober there was a noticeable slackening
IN demand, and the price situation was
weaker than in September. With orders
now coming in freely for iron and steel
products for the first quarter of next
Year conditions are showing an i'm
provement.
Cement prices continued stable in
October. The increasing custom of
laying cement in Winter may eliminate
the ordinary seasonal fluctuations Re
duction of freight rates on cement has
been approved by the New York State
Public Service Commission, effective
November 81, 1924.

Mccall citizens who are protesting
the plan OF usng the Payei;e Lake
for Black Canyon purposes have no
cause to worry in the immediate fu-
ture, according to letter sent by
Senator Borah to interested persons
at Mccall. No appropriation is con-
templated for that project in 1925.
Senator Borah has been assured by
DR.. Elwood Mead. new reclamation
commissioner.
Senator Borah quotes from Dr.
Mead as follows:
"There is a tentative plan for the
use of that lake (Paye;te) for stor-
age OF irrigation water for~the Black
Canyon division OF the Boise Pro
.ect.
"No work has been done AZ the
lake and none can be done until the
necessary Appropriation is made by
Congress. No appropriation is con-
templated in the Interior Depart
mcnt Bill for the fiscal year OF 1925
now pending in Congress.
Hence the determination OF what,
is TO be done is for future consider

DRASTIC ACTION
To STOP FIRES


Ogdcn-ln view of the extraordin-
arily dangerous forest fire situation
arising from the prolonged drought
throughout the entire northwestern
portion OF the United States. the use
Of drastic measures TO prevent forest
fires, was authorized by Chief For
ester w. p. Creely in letter sent
to all Forest officers in this region
today, states District Forester R H.
Rutledge. These measures have been
authorized for many years by the
Secretary OF Agriculture for use in
periods OF extreme fire hazard and
include the prohibition of smoking in
the forest, camping and building OF
camp fires without permits.
The enforcement to the letter of all
clauses in timber sale contracts re-
lating to the brush burning and ade-
quate protection OF forests in the vic
unity OF sawmills and numbering camps
will also be necessary. Roads. other
than public rcids. upon the National
Forests. may be closed il conditions
warrant, not only to prevent the en-
trance OF the general public into parts
OF the forest where the hazard is great
but also to keep the roads clear ior
the necessary fire fighters as such
roads are often narrow and poor and
an interference with travel upon them
might mean 4 great deal to the fire
lighters No blanket restrictions are
to be put into effect.

Anglers Find Fish
Hard to Satisfy
Empty Creels Tell Tale
OF First Days
Outing

Anglers who swarmed into the hills
over the week end to lure the willy
trout from his normal haunts iiocked
back to Caldwell Sunday afternoon
and evening, sans FISH. Literally
thousands poured from the lower
country into the mountains to take
advantage of streams as clear as they
usually are in August, of roads that
are perfect, of an opening day for
fishing that was greeted with fair
skies.
The upper waters OF the Weiser
river, closed for FIVE seasons. found
hopeful anglers every few yards
Sunday morning patiently whipping
the pools. Other streams attracted
more venturesome fishermen.
But the fish wouldn't bite. Some
anglers managed to Mre few small
ones to the fly or spinner but not
one caught the usual reward for a.
long trip.
Too early was the consensus of
opinion among veteran followers of
this pastime. just when trout will
begin to rise is now the chief specu-
alton among nimrods who are patient
y waiting. not for the legal opening
lay, but for the day when the trout
himself will admit that the season is

POULTRY TRAIN
HEARTY SUPPORT
T ellis Prem M O ore
That l d e a is Used
For First I i'm e
In World

Boise-Governor {. c. Moore has
given official approval OF the poultry
special train to be run through Idaho
during the next ten days in letter
to Prem Moore, poultry specialist.
The governor gives credit to MIR.
Moore for his very efficient work in
developing che poultry industry IN
the state and predicts great future
Tor Idaho along this line.
"As far as | am aware the hen Is
the only animal that gets results by
laying down on the job. is another
one OF the governors sayings which
has 4 great deal OF truth in IT. The
rest OF the letter follows:
Permit me to congratulate you on
your earnest efforts in bringing TO the
attention of the people OF Idaho the
great importance OF the poultry indus
try. ! know that the tour OF the poul-
try special arranged by yourself with
the kind cooperation OF the Oregon
Short Line. will be most successful
in every way. To the best OF my
knowledge this is the first exclusive
poultry train to be run anywhere IN
the world.
1T is my candid opinion that the
prosperity OF farmers OF Idaho is
wrapped up very closely with the
growth OF the hundred industries aih-
lated with ''the COW. the pig. and the
hen. The development OF the poul-
try industry in Idaho has been rapid
the past few years and can see
a great future ahead for it. When
we consider that Idaho was import
ing eggs for home consumption as
late as 1921 and that there were 100
full carloads OF eggs shipped from
southern Idaho in 1923, not oonsid-
ering the express shipments and mix
ed cars OF butter, poultry and eggs,
we begin to realize the extent and
Importance OF the industry.
IL wish to say frankly that | be-
Iieve that the climate, soil conditions
and feed supply OF southern Idaho
will make it one OF the greatest poul-
try sections OF the entire country
within very few years. Conditions
are close to ideal for this industry and
is close ASSOCIATION with dairying will
also mean a greater degree OF sue
less.
"Mr. Moore. feel that you are
doing a great benefit to the state and
much to its prosperity
when you point out the way to sue
,essful poultry raising Farmers who
receive their regular income from
sources that cannot fail; who produce
h feed on their own farms and who
ave easy methods OF marketing Will
DC not only prosperous and happy,
,ut will be better citizens in every
sense OF the word. They will have
better homes and educate their child
-en to the responsibilities OF citizen
ship and assume their. share oil civic
iuiies.
again, may | say. Mr.. Moore, that
feel that you, individually, have con-
ributed a great deal toward making
Idahos farmers prosperous and con-
ented by your efforts in building up
he poultry industry. feel that cred
I should be given where it is due and
your pioneering in this industry is
by hundreds OF happy
