FARMERS SHOULD
KEEP INVENTORIES
Advisable For Farmers To
Keep Inventory Of Farm
Products And
Livestock

After an extended trip throughout
Southeastern Idaho, including the
Mountain Home, Twin Falls, Burley,
Idaho Falls, st. Anthony and briggs
territories, in the interest of income
tax clients, Leslie ]. Aker, income
tax attorney of Boise, reports that a
large number of farmers and stock
men do not contemplate making in
in a large number of cases their net
income does not exceed S3500.0O, the
exemption provided for married men
under the new 1926 Revenue Law,
based exclusively on the cash re-
ceipts and disbursements basis. In
many localities in Southeastern Ida
no, only about one-fourth of the
1926 grain and potato crops are mar
keted, consequently about three
fourths of the crops are held over
and being sold in 1926. These farm
ers will be obliged to pay tax on the
1925 crops sold in 1926, as well as
the 1926 crops, with deductions only
for 1872 expense, by reporting on the
cash basis, while they would have
all the benefits of the deductions and
exemptions allowed for 1925, if they
reported on an inventory basis, and
ultimately they would be saved con-
siderable taxes for 1872 This same
principle holds true with stockmen
who have been reporting strictly on
a cash basis, because they will be
obliged to pay very heavy tax if
they should sell out entirely or quite
heavily, with no inventory to deduct
from gross sales, thereby averaging
the income over a long period, in
stead of showing same all in one
year, as many of them now do. 1t
may also be very much heavier if
the privilege of making separate in
dividual returns of husband and |
wife is eliminated, as the Revenue
Department is now seeking to do, |
both through the courts and under
the provisions of the new revenue
law. In fact, the so-called tax re-
duction under the new law will, in
many cases, be transformed in a
heavy increase in taxes if the com
munity property provisions are TAX
en- away from Idaho citizens.

LITTLE MARKET
FOR HAY

Recent arrivals in this city from
Bruneau state that there is very lit
tie demand for hay in that section
and that quite likely the farmers
there will have to carry their last
crop over. The hay at Grand View
has been practically all sold on the
other side Of the river but the resi-
dents on this side of the river are
having some difficulty in disposing Of
their crop. Several sales were re-
ported in Mountain Home the fore
part of the past week at figure ap-
proximating eight dollars per ton,

WATER CONDITION
LOOKS FAVORABLE
Forecasts Are Made To The
Effect That The District
Will Have Sufficient
Water For Needs

The prospects for a good water
supply on the local project contin-
ue fayorably according to those who
were up on the water shed during
the past week. It is stated that it
rained in that section during the
last storm that was experienced in
the lower sections but that II only
tended to settle the snow and not
to melt it. Recent arrivals from
Pine state that there is now about
fourteen inches of snow. there and the
blanket OF snow continues to in
crease the further up the country,
seyenty-two inches being on Bald
Mountain.
on Monday Of this week there was
reported to be about ten inches of
snow at Dixie. Engineer spofford of
the Mountain Home Irrigation Dis
trict, very conseryatiyely estimates
that there is approximately two acre
feet of water assured for the next
season
A fair stream is now coming down
Creek into the Noun
tain Home reservoir and about two
thousand inches are going to this
source Of supply from Canyon Greek.
The snow in the upper reaches has
not as yet started to melt and the
District Engineer is taking every
means possible for the conservation
Of every possible drop Of water.

-HE hour of destiny found Hickory
Pete Grimble sitting back of the
stove in the general store at the
Corners. Buffalo Hall was there also,
slouched comfortable on a barrel, and
old Lem Thurston was behind the
counter, but it was Pete who made
the salute to circumstances. The
others would have let that hour go
gliding on down the highways of time,
but the nature of Hickory Pete had
been preparing for it from the begin
ming.
Grimble did not know that any
thing was going to happen as he sat
in broken armchair, polished by
generations of trousers, and drew
comfortably at his short pipe. His
neatly laced shoepacks were
stretched out to the fire SO that they
would be warmed when he started
forth again, and his sheep-lined jacket
was open for the absorption of heat.
The day was bright with sunshine,
but the mercury had been down to
thirty below zero at daybreak, and 1T
would begin to drop again with the
coming of night.
Even sprawled thus upon his Shout
derblades, Hickory made very good
looking figure. He was small for a
countain country that regarded two
hundred pounds as, merely satisfac-
tory weight for man, but he had
been put together with a truly beau
tiful regard for proportion. He
tapered downward from a pair of
broad shoulders, and his neck was a
column that rose splendidly to sup
port an exceedingly hard head. That
head had been battered but never
dented. Hickory's blue-gray eyes
carried the assurance of man who
knows he can walk through good
deal of trouble and keep his feet.
There had been desultory and
highly enjoyable argument as tc
| whether the ice in Lake Champlain
was eighteen inches or two feet thick

themselves of caked snow.

ing pairs In reverse layers over this
center. In the same operation the
assembled pairs are covered with a
double wrapping of heavy paper as an
additional insulation between the wires
and the lead sheath, which is later
applied as an outside protection. The
finished GORE" as the unsheathed cable
is called, is wound upon larke tale-up
drums. This stranding together of
the pairs is necessary to provide fexi-
bility, for if the pairs were all run
straight through. the cable could
not be bent without stretching some
Of the wires or kinking others.
In order to furnish the customer
with the cable length desired, one of
the center pairs is carefully measured

One of the miracles of telephone
factory is the cable stranding machine
which takes the pairs OF copper wire
after they have been insulated with
paper and twisted together, and makes
them into continuous, snake-like
core. This machine consists of a
number of large revolving drums
which look like enormous skeleton
spools. On the outer part of these
drums are arranged the reels con-
tanning the pairs of wire. In the
operation of the machine, all these
pairs are drawn together, emerging in
one great rope of insulated wires
which is really the cable ready for Its
coating of lead.
The center pair or pairs of wires
are drawn into the machine straight.

and the location of the end of the
pair marked on the outside of the core
as it passes successive drums. The
core is then cut at this point 1t is
important to the customer that the
length be absolutely correct, and
check measurement is usually obtained
by means of recording device on the
front of the stranding machine and by
weighing the completed core. Cables
vary in length from few feet up to
600 or 700 feet for underground cables
and up to $500 feet for small sizes of
serial cables.
After leaving the stranding machine,
the length of cable core is carefully
tested to see that there are no broken
wires and that the paper insulation is
in satisfactory condition.
