VILLAGE BOARD
HOLDS Meeting
Of Community In
terest Acted Upon
By-Village
Dads

A regular monthly meeting of the
Board Of Village Trustees was held
last Tuesday evening 1T which time
the regular budget of monthly bills
were passed and the following busi-
ness transacted:
John O'Connor, driller, who has
been working at the village well, ap-
peared before the board and gave a
detailed statement of the progrss
that has been made to date He
stated that the lost tools had been
recovered from the hole. The board
decided that further drilling oper-
ations should be dispensed with at
this time and Mr. O'Connor made
them a proposition that in the spring
he would be willing to return here
and take a contract for further drill
ing at the rate of IS per foot. This
matter has been taken under advise
ment by the members of the council.
Frank Ottenheimer and M. c..
Helm, representing the local order
of Knights OF Pythias appeared be-
fore the board with relation to the
sale of some lots which the city de-
sires to purchase for the enlarge
ment of the local cemetery. A COM
mittee was appointed to look into the
matter.
w. S. Galloway asked that a street
light be placed in the vicinity Of his

Brinck Holds Tax
Collectors Surety Re-
sponsible For The Full
Amount

In a decision handed down last
Friday District Judge Brinck held
Miss Florence OMAHA, as County
Tax Collector and her surety, the
National Surety Company, respon-
sible for the entire shortage in the
Office Of the county treasurer and tax
collector, in the amount of $92S3.sO
and interest.
One very peculiar feature of this
case has been the fact that some time
ago the Fidelity and Deposit Com
pany. of Maryland, who were surety
for Miss OMAHA in the capacity of
county treasurer confessed judgment
in the amount Of $4,000 and have al
ready paid this sum to Ekmore coun-
ty. In commenting upon this phase
of the case Judge Brinck said in his
decision: my view would be that
Judgment may be entered against
the tax collector and her surety for
the full amount confessed; though of.
course plaintiff would be entitled to
but one satisfaction, for the sum of
S923S.SO and interest. think it
entitled to hold both judgments un-
til the full amount has been recov-
cred from either or both"

benefit by joining the Association
and selling through the pool. King
Hill, Glenns Ferry and Pasadena

and deliver their turkeys to the car
in Gooding. Remember that in or

DREDGE TO CLOSE
DOWN DECEMBER Is
Featherville Dredger Will
Cease Operations For the
Winter on December
Fifteenth

Word has been received in this
city to the effect that the Dredge,
operated by the South Park Dredg-
ing Company at Featheryille, will
close down on December 18th for re-
pairs and it is quite likely that the
boat will not be in operation again
until the early spring.
The ladder on the present boat
seems inadequate to reach bed rock
and the buckets have become so bad
ly worn that they are practically un-
fit for use. 1t is the plan of the COM
pany we are informed to install
new ladder and otherwise repair the
worn machinery ready for the run,
commencing in the spring.

PLAY BIG
PART IN TOWN BOOM
Spends Money With Home
Merchants And Helps To
Promote Prosperous
Conditions Here

What has so far been said in this
series Of articles on the Importance
of buying of hometown merchants
applies with equal force to the farm
ers residing in the vicinity of Noun
tain Home as it does to those who
reside within its corporate limits.
Bringing his patronage to the
merchants of Mountain Home means
money in his pocket 1t is not a
question of obligation but ques-
ton Of profit
Probably by far the greatest prog
ress that ha sheen made in industry
in the past 100 years has been
achieved as a result of the division
of industry. Time was when the
farmer raised sheep cut their wool
raised fodder to feed his flock over
winter, dyed the clips, spun them
into wool with family or hired help,
woye them into cloth, took them to
marketand bartered his rolls Of
goods for something else he needed.
All the processes Of whatever line
of activity he engaged in had to be
performed on the farm. And every
thing had to be run on a small scale
in consequence.
With the introduction of the divi-
sion Of labor there was brought
about a big change. We have no
time to trace this movement step by
step, or to go into minute detail, but
in a general way the new develop
nent worked out so that the farmer
was freed Of all the operations except
raising the sheep and clipping the

IMPROVEMENT IN
CATTLE And HOGS
Babson Is Optimistic On
Cattle And Their BY Pro
ducts AS Well AS
Hogs

Babson Park, Mass, November 10,
1925-Two weeks ago Mr.. Babson
discussed the sheep and wool sit
uation, giving conditions and figures
for his optimism. Today he has been
asked for his opinions regarding the
cattle and hog industry together
with their by-products. His official
statement follows:
I'm late 1920 cattle and hog prices
suffered a sensational setback. In
the course Of one year live cattle at
the Chicago market dropped SO per
cent. Hogs also fiji SO per cent. In
both cases the price level was swept
under the pre-war average. For four
consecutive years condition were ad-
verse to a steady profit in cattle and
hog raising and as result some
serious and important changes have
taken place.
"Take cattle, for example In
1907 there were 72 $4,000 beef cat
tie on our farms. This was followed
by a downward tendency to low
of 56,527,O0G in 1913. The follow
ing years showed an increase but
since 1919-then $500, 0,O0O--the
trend has been steadily
downward until the number on our
farms january / of this year was
but 64,s2S,OO0. Here is another case
where the number Of livestock has
declined while the population Of this
country has steadily climbed upward.

 civiIizing Influence
 If you have any doubt about the value of having somebody to pass your worries on to, ask the encyclo- paedia, under the heading, "Insur- ance." We are told that Tt has done more than all gifts of impul- sive charity to foster a sense oI human brotherhood and of common interests. It has done more than all oppressive legislation to destroy the gambling spirits It is impos- sible to conceive of our civilization in it's full vigor and progressive power without this principle which unites the fundamental law of prac- tical economy, that he best serves humanity who best serves himself, with the golden rule of religion, Bear ye one another's burdens.
 So, says the insurance man, 1t isn't so much a question of passing your worries on to somebody else as 1t is system of breaking them up into little bits and distributing them around among a lot of people who are in turn passing little bits of their worries on to you.

c. l.. Scott of the remount, said that "the fact that horses of proper type were so hard to locate shows the neglect. of breeding in the past and the scarcity of good sires of riding type at the present"
 During the World War, and for a dozen years previous, breeding Of light horses, particularly riding horses, decreased greatly, in many states the drop being from 75 to 90 per cent. The breeder has now dis covered that it only pays to raise high-class, we'll bred colt and that scrubs and mongrels are of no use and have no saleable value.

Houses of Steel and Cork
 An Experiment in England

DEAL, Eng, May 12.-(P)-Not far from the famous Deal Castle, built by Henry VIII, several workmen's houses of cork with steel framework, are being built as an experiment de- signed to assist in relieving the hous- ing shortage in England.
 The entire skeleton of the newly conceived houses is of steel and the insulation core of the walls is form ed of slabs of compressed cork. On the exterior the cork is enclosed in solid concrete to the depth of an inch and a half by a cement gun." This applies the concrete under pressure. The cork itself, having been pressed into a mould, will not swell and burns very slowly. Calcu- lations of the builders show that it's insulation value saved 25 per cent in heating costs.
 Another advantage for the cork house claimed by the inventors is that it is hound-proof in comparison with the ordinary structure of brick, stone or timber. Owing to the fact that it may be built by unskilled la
 Dor under direction of experienced
 hands the cost is low and the auth critics hope buildings of this kind
 may prove popular among the coal miners and other workmen in the industrial districts.

Riding Horses of Today Excel Breed of Past

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 12.- R)-While the number of riding horses bred in recent years has de- creased enormously, army officers say the kind and type of this day is far superior in quality and breeding than in the past
 Not only is there demand in the army for good riding horses, say of ficers of the Quartermaster corps but horseback riding, polo and hunting are greatly on the increase turnout the country, and a good, well-bred riding horse is bringing better price than at any time in the history
