OIL OF THE FUTURE

We've many bright men around

can foretell what our next war will
be fought over? And yet, as many
claim, the answer is easy. 1t will
be over oil. 1t is predicted that at
the rate we are building autos we
will in the next ten years be forced
to import 55O,OOO,O0O barrels of oil
yearly at cost of at least 50 bar
rel. 1t is said the worlds estimated
output of oil is sixty billion barrels.
Of these only seven billion are in
the United States. The rest is in
Central and South America and Asia,
and England is quietly but surely
reaching out and Tightening her
grip on these oil acres. When she
gets complete control of the worlds

chief aim, earth's greatest monopoly
will be established - and you can
draw your own conclusions as to
what kind of tragedy may result.

Chas. d. Blackwell is declared to
be the most successful merchant in
the entire state of Washington, and
he hasn't forgotten how he secured
that success. We feel Mountain
Home merchants will be interested in
the following remarks made by
Blackwell in talk to convention
of business men. He said:
"There are many lines of publicity
that the country store can use to adj
vantage but that one he can use to
best advantage is the hometown
newspapers. venture to say that If
the money spent each year for fancy
calendars and knick-knacks given
away were invested say invested,
not spent or donated - in carefully
planned newspaper advertising, the
actual net returns to the advertiser
would be ten times as great, to say
nothing of the advantage the town
would receive through the small
town papers ability to become
stronger through added revenue. For
we know that as a business-builder
the hometown paper is without an
equal"

GOOD OLD DAYS"

Talking to a pioneer Mountain
Home citizen recently we said some
thing about the good old days." and
he smiled and told us a few things
that made us wonder if they were
as good as they were cracked up to
be. He said as late as 1875 black
omith made about $3.50 a day, a
common laborer 81 to $1.25 and a
carpenter was lucky to get $3.50.
Wheat sold at $1.75 in 1916, at 99c
in 1845 and at 58c as late as 1894.
The cost of living fluctuated con-
siderably, for prices have always
travelled in 50-year cycles, reaching
about the same high peak every half
century. One generation has low
prices and the next generation has
high prices.
Wages in the old days, he points
out, were not substantial They
were quickly changed to fit the price
of commodities and even then failed
to keep pace when the cost of living
scared. SO the man born in an old
time period of high prices was out of
luck. If sugar and coffee went to the
bottom, wages went down with them,
and it took wages longer to get back
up again than it took the sugar and
coffee barons to put the prices back
up.
From this mans point of view,
this generation is the first one in
which wages have been elastic
enough to keep ahead of the cost of
living. OF course the cost of living
still climbs faster than the average
mans salary, but when compared
with a few years back we are better
off in this respect. At least we don't
have to stand for a cut in wages
every time somebody decides to jump
the price of sugar or coffee or the
bacon market.

IDAHO POWER co.

The case of ]. F. Gilbert VS.. the
Idaho Power Co., which occupied the
attention of the district court for
four days last week, was given to the
jury Saturday evening, and after less
than two hours deliberation the
twelve men returned verdict for the
company.
The case was based upon damages
to crops said to have been caused by
1920 break in the company's flume
which supplies water both for the
Malad power plant and the King
Hill irrigation district Plaintiff
contended that the company had neg
ligently failed to keep the f1ume in
proper repair, while the company
witnesses testified that every pre-
caution had been taken in order to
insure adequate maintenance of this
particular waterway. The case, which
was tried before District Judge Ray

tire days. The jury's verdict was

when they said they could fly. Road
builders laughed less than 20 years
ago. when told that roads would some
day cost many thousands of dollars
a mile and be cheap at that. Now
comes man with suggestion to
build roads of a steel composition
and people are laughing at him. But
some of us can't see where the
laugh comes In. The joke of yester-
day may be the fact of today. Within
very few years we may be riding
on national highway of steel. They
laughed at steel rails for railroads,
too - and they laughed at the
thought of digging the Panama
Canal. So, in the face of what hap
pened, wouldn't it be a pretty good
idea to just sit back and see who

so we can readily understand the vital
Importance of keeping the kidneys active.

Salts. Take a tablespoonful in a glass
of water before breakfast each MORN
ing for a few days and your kidneys
NAV then act fine. This famous salts
is made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with lithia, and
has been used for years to help clean
and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to
neutralize the acids in the system so
they are no longer a source of irrita-

ness.
