Farmer Is Demanding
Modern Convenience

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, Moscow.
--"Electricity and piped water sup
ply are becoming necessities on the
farm" says Prof. M. r. Lewis of the
University department Of agricultural
engineering. "The time is coming
when they will be as valuable to the
farmer as his car and his farm i'm
plements."
A recent survey conducted by Pro-
lessor Lewis in a typical South Idaho
farm area indicates that at the pres
emit time barely 10 per cent of Idaho
farms have running water piped from
wells and cisterns to the house. Elec-
trio lighting equipment is found on
approximately 10000 of the estimated
10000 farms in the state.
Plumbers figures show that sim
pie water system which includes pump
and drains in the kitchen, could be
installed on the average farm for
$45. While such system would not
be elaborate it would provide an i'm
provement over the old method Of
carrying water from distant wei
through the slush,Sand snow Of winter
and the dust and heat Of summer.
Installation of gravity tank, toilet
modern bathrooms and hot and COLI
water could be accomplished for ap
proximately $225, according to figures
The 10000 farms having electric
lighting equipment use power sup
piled by central power stations. Mos
of them use current only for lighting
purposes but some boast many othe
irons to electric heaters.

Look Inside

When your car develops knock,
or labors on hill, or lacks pep, you
take it to qualified mechanic, who
looks inside. Why not treat your own
body, much more wonderful ma
chine, with as much consideration?
When you have knock in the chest,
or labor going up hills you have for
merly done ION high" or lack energy
generally, take yourself to a qualified
physician.
Before the X-ray the physician
could look you over only on the out
side; now he can look inside and To-
ate the trouble more accurately and
readily. When we first began to look
inside, all we could see. were the. me-
tallic substances such as bullets, pins
etc., but now we can see the heart
lungs, kidneys, stomach and u intes
tines, in fact almost all the organs
and tell why they pound or knock.
The wise man has his motor tuned
up frequently even in it's first year
but knows it is essential to have ii
overhauled carefully in it's fourth and
fifth year. So with yourself many
breakdowns occur in the fourth and
fifth decades.
And when you have your car re
paired-you take it to mechanic who
knows about that car, knows the
meaning of every squeak and rattle
how best to get at it and what to dc
for it. He knows whether it is just
an irritating rattle or the serious
grinding of bearing. So with you1
body-your old family doctor is the
best mechanic you can find for your
particular machine. He knows its
strong and weak parts, the knock yor
may have in your heart, the wheeze
in your lung, the diseases you have
had and whether they have weakened
the machine. Trust him as your ad
visor and friend. Be guided anG
guarded by him. If special me
chanic is needed, let him select tina
1 man and consult with him as to what
he sees. But give him a fair chance
| to help you-take the machine to hin
at least once year for examination

KITE CANNOT BUY
SNAKE RIVER Bird

OLYMPIA-That the proposition
for the purchase by the State OF
Washington of the recently construct
ed Snake River bridge at Pasco for
which the counties of Walla Walla
and Franklin bonded themselves for
$115,OOO, cannot validity be achieved
by an act of the pending special ses-
sion of the Legislature, is the gist OF
the opinion rendered to Logan l..
Long, member of the House from Con-
nell, Franklin County, rendered by
Acknowledgement John H. Dunbar.
Representative Long had written
that the counties wanted the state to
take over the bridge, which is now q
toll bridge.
The opinion holds that the constitu-
tional authority for mourning of in
debtedness by the state does not ex-
tend to Indebtedness for purchase OF
bridge, except after a majority
vote of the people at general cleo
ton upon the question. He cites the
opinio of the supreme court relative
to an earlier law for capitol build.
ing general Indebtedness in support
of the constitutional bar.
The opinion points out that If the
state were to assume the obligation
of the bonds issued by the counties in
this case, the situation would be the
same as though the state had issued
bonds ITSELF
Reference is made to the Legislative
act of 1923 authorizing the state tx

yer, which proposition has nevel

Age improves many canned foods.
French sardine Gamers let their
sardines stand at least year after

marketable. This is to permit the oil

Before his departure on an Off
cial trip through the west, Secre-
tary Work was highly optimistic
over the administration program of
the interior department. He said:
"With regard to the Colorado
River, the time has come when a
definite federal policy should be
adopted. This river has been the
subject of study for the past 50
years. 1t is LOO miles long. No
less than SO measures have been in
troduced in congress to prevent
floods, or utilize its waters for ir-
rigation or power purposes. More
than a million dollars has been ex-
pended in investigation of the Col
orado River problem by the various
departments of the government. It's
photography comprises 1000 books,
articles and maps. 1t has been un-
der consideration by practically
every congress for the last eight
decades. Further delay by the gov
ernment in reaching some compre-
hensive plan will prove not only eX-
pensfve but futile. -
