STATE INSTITUTIONS
TO "BUY AT HOME

State institutions which depend
upon Idaho taxation for their sup
port are very glad to cooperate with
the Idaho Home Industries Associa-
ton in spending as much of the Ida
no money in Idaho as possible, ac-
cording to Norman B. Addison, Man
aging Secretary of the Association
who returned recently from visit
to the University of Idaho, the Lew
iston State Normal and the Orc Elmo
hospital. These institutions and
others in the state will specify Idaho
made products whenever possible in
placing their acquisitions with the
State Purchasing Agent, reports Mr..
Addison. 1t is easy for the heads of
these institutions to realize that any
increase in the taxable wealth of
Idaho would assist in getting the
proper support for the state institu-
tions.
Certainly we will be most glad to
spend all of Idaho's money in Idaho
whenever possible" said President
Alfred Upham of the University of
Idaho at Moscow. 1.-THE people of
Idaho raise this money for the edu-
cation of their children and it is no
more than fair that they have some
opportunity to have the money spent
in the state in order to build up it's
own industries. You are doing a
great piece of work, keep it up"
Quality and price being the same
we will give preference to Idaho
and producers" is an
excerpt from letter asking for bids
from the Idaho Technical
at Pocatello. The Gooding
School for the Deaf and Blind, not

many instances recently specified
'Idaho-Made" products in its requisi-
ions. Other institutions are falling

supplies let by State Purchasing
agent Archibald larger amount has

yer before.
The Buy At Home" campaign is

work done in the Daily Vacation
Bible School was given Thursday
evening at the Congregations
church under the direction of Mr.
Leanard Erickson of Seattle.
The program consisted of songs
Bible stories, Bible references and
dramatized stories which were a part
of the daily work of the school. Some
of the hand work was on exhibition
and was taken home at the close of
the service.
The boys classes were in charge
of Rev. J. A. Smith and Mr.. Erick-
son and acted out the stories of Jo-
seph and the Good Samaritan. Misses
Winifred and Hazelle Turner had
charge of the Junior Girls and they
presented the story of Moses in ac-
tion and song Miss Edith Mason
had charge of the intermediate girls
who presented the story of Ruth and
Naomi. The junior girls made
church flag and booklets of the ten
commandments. The intermediates
made note books on "How we got our
Bible" The Primary children gave
Bible verses, the names of the twelve
apostles and a song. Helen Latimore
and Hugh Boyle were chosen by the
audience to tell stories.
Other workers were Miss Lucille
Norell who gave excellent service at
the organ and with the records of
the work; Mr. Mason had a Bible
story period every morning for the
whole group; Mary Lee Morton and
Eta Edgar assisted Mrs. Mason in
the primary with hand work.
Each morning there was a recess
period on the church lawn when the
primary department. formed one
group and the rest of the children
a second and enjoyed lively games.
Friday morning the school closed
with an enjoyable picnic in the city
park This sumner was Mr.. Erick-
sons first experience with Vacation
Bible School Work. He proved to be
yery resourceful, agreeable and full
If pep. Many have expressed the
wish that we may have another
ehool next year.
The church was filled for the even
ng service.
The school opened with an at
of twenty-four children and
losed with an attendance of sixty
light. Ninety two children enrolled
uring the two weeks.

community education which is be
such drain iweakens it.
And you pay more money than yol
pay at home for the same merchan
disc, as we will prove to you subse
quently in this weekly series of edu-
cational articles.
Now, the money is out. What
comes back from this expenditure
made in the distant big city by your
Mountain Home money?
Nothing absolutely nothing.
Your Wanted circulation is a
myth. The big city is self-sufficing.
Mountain Home has nothing, makes
nothing, raises nothing that the me-
tropolitan neighbors must have.
Mountain Home cannot supply any
thing that hundreds of other places
of similar size cannot supply. Noun
tain Home shoppers-in person or
by mail-are cultivated so long as
their money holds out; after that
they are no longer wanted.
There is a profit in every transfer
of merchandise. You buy coat or
a pound of prunes, and the merchant
gets little more than he pays for
these goods, because he deserves to
be paid for the services he renders.
There are risks and enterprises in
volved on the one hand, and there
are helpfulness and service on the
other The profit is the merchants
living. You pay profit to the out
of-town merchant as well. But you
pay more for less service. There is
your trip to pay for, if you run in
to the city, and there is the risk you
run buying "sight-unseen" Gas the
boys trading jack-knives say if you
deal with the mail-order house. In
both cases, there is the greater over
head to pay, owing to higher rents,
insurance, great cost of labor, ex-
pensive advertising and scores of
other expenditures that the home
town merchant does not have.
The hometown merchants profits
are spent in Mountain Home. They
reach you again. Your
money comes back to you the
starting point" of this business "cir-
,ulation.' Buying at home is the
,nly salvation there is for the bust
less life of Mountain Home. The
anne principle is invoked by small
lations in face of their large and
more powerful neighbors. Mountain
lone must profit by their example,
nd every man, woman and child
must stand shoulder to shoulder with
he home merchants to maintain our
economic independence.
Next week we will consider an
Their phase of the problem.

ELECTED TO
TAILORS' GUILD


r. E. Whitaker of Mountain
Home has been elected to member
ship in the Born Tailors' Guild, a
national association of master tail
ors, according to word from the
headquarters of the organization in
Chicago. The Guild, with the slogan
"Tailors are born and not made"
aims at lifting the tailoring profess
sion to a higher plane of perfection
in the art Of making clothes and to
establish in the minds of men and
young men in definite appreciation
of style, fabric and tailorship in
clothes.
The Born Tailors' Guild is at
tempting to model its organization
afte rthe craft organizations of the
early English times, according to w.
A. Churhill, who is it's executive
secretary. ''The members Of the old
Guilds were bound by oath Of broth
erliness to up hol dthe standard of
the profession and to pass down from
generation to generation the treas
ured secrets of their craft. Before
a man could become a master tailor
he had to serve seven years as an
apprentice and two years as a jour
neyman during which time he was
taught all the skill and secrets of
the trade. The present Guild has
much the same spirit. Our purpose
is to bind together the master tailors
of America in an effort to raise the
standards of the trade to the end
that 1t may be placed in the class of
an art. We further seek to bring
back into the tailoring craft some
of the old-time romance and ideal
ism of Tooley street. And above all
we want our tailors to reassert their
pride in perfection OF workmanship
and to study mems dress as a pro-
The Grand Master of the Guild is
M. Born of Chicago, head of the tail
oring house OF NJ Born & Company
which he established fifty years ago
and In whose honor the Guild was

Just before the pullets start lay
ing, they should be moved from the
range into their permanent laying
quarters. It is at this time that
thorough cleaning and disinfecting
of the laying house is an excellent
investment. When moving the pull
lets into winter quarters, each pull
let should be gone over carefully.
1t is desirable to keep only the fully
developed ones with broad backs, deep
bodies, well developed heads and full
bright eyes. Runty, small sized birds
or those having deformities or dis
ease should be culled. The pullets
should be housed separate from the
hens"

CIRCULATION
rs NECESSARY

helping to maintain a healthy bust
ness life, you drain these industrial
corpuscles out of the system. Every
by economists and business men. The
dictionary says in defining circula-
ton: Motion around or through
something back to the starting
point"
Nothing comes back in the kind
of circulation they are trying to
put under way. Value received would
come back to the community, if it
were the right kind of circulation.
That is the theory of all sound bust
ness. Nothing must be lost in the
cycle, whether the return is in mon
ey or in kind.
The money or the purchasing pow
er, that is in small community, is
like the reservoir of water that is
stored up behind a dam. The big
city market is the lowland into
which the river drains when the
sluice gates are lifted. Every time
some member of the community car
ries his money away, the water level
is lowered, and the power that
should grind the corn is lost.
And it is as true here as in the old 7
saying, that "The mill will never
grind with the water that has
passed" We are getting into theory
here, but it is the theory on which
all sound business life is based, and
our readers must be set straight on
this point if the big campaign of

Alfalfa and clover pastures are

although corn or grain fields or or

and succulent feeds and lots of in
seets and bugs are also fine. II a
good shade is not available, it should
be supplied by artificial means,
either by stretching canvas or sacks
over frames a few feet from the
ground or by constructing shelters
from branches. Corn or sunflowers
in small patches furnish desirable
shade as well as valuable source
OF green feed.
1t Is hardly possible to over es-
innate the value of giving unlimited
sour skimmilk, buttermilk or some
similar milk by product during the
growing period. Liberal feelings of
scratch feeds should be given three
times day and the growing mash
should be available at all times in

chickens should be kept hungry at
