of the County.
The best dollar any community can
spend is the dollar it invests in con
servation of community life and
health. It yields biggest returns.
The finest advertising asset which
a community can have is a low sick
ness and death rate. The large cities
have long since recognized this fact
and have supplied themselves with
large staffs of public health nurses.
The community nurse is a form of
insurance which no community can
afford to be without because she cares
for the sick in her community, bring
ing trained skill to supplement the
doctor's knowledge.
She is the guardian of all babies.
Ignorance of proper treatment is the
biggest factor in the high death rate
of babies. She informs the mother of
the latest scientific principles of child
care, and so helps to save many little
* lives. "Saving the baby costs the pub
lic so little; losing the baby costs
the mother so much.''

beck became the bride of Lucien Dau
fau, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Daufau,

ner was served by Mrs. Goldbeck, and

FIND BOOZE IN POOL HALL
Proprietors of the Pastime UhargtMl
With Violating Prohibition Law. j
Armed with a search warrant is-1
sued by County Attorney O. C. Wilson,
Jack Foster, of the state constabulary,
and J. A. Worley, city marshall, raided
the Pastime Cigar Store last Thursday
night about 9:30 o'clock, finding two
quart bottles of peach brandy in the
basement of the building and a quart
bottle about three-quarters full of
brandy, by the soft drink counter.
The raid had been planned for some
time, the search warrant having been
issued nearly a week before.
Art and Gerald Brooks, the proprie
tors of the Pastime, were arraigned
Friday before Probate Judge Hender
son, each being charged with posses
sion of intoxicating liquor and the
two, as business partners, being
charged with maintaining' a public
nuisance. The defendants waived a
preliminary examination and were
bound over to the district court. Cash
bonds in the sum of $1260 were fur
nished.
Under orders of Prosecuting Attor
ney Wilson the Pastime has been
closed. Negotiations for the purchase
of the stocks and fixtures are now
being made.
"The only states which can be af
facted by the treasury department's
order, said MF. Black, are those
which had no prohibition laws before
the enactment of the Volstead bill and
have not since passed any. The fed
eral law would also affect states where
the state law was not as drastic as
that imposed by congress.
"Idahos prohibition laws are con
stitutional, and the amendment for
ever prohibiting the manufacture,
sale, keeping for sale and transporta
tion for sale of intoxicating liquors
for beverage purposes was voted by
the people in the fall of 1916, and
went into effect May 1, 1917. The 1915
legislature, anticipating the action .ft
the people at the 1916 fall election,
passed a set of prohibition laws which
wem added to during the 1917 ses -
sion.
"The state constitutional amend
ment says nothing about possession,
but the legislature covered this point
thoroughly when U enacte d section!

All previous records for apple crops,
are broken, by this year's estimated
yield of more than four million bush
e ] B , according to the monthly reiiort
0 f Julius H. Jacobson, agricultural
statistician of the Idaho crop report
j ng service, issued Wednesday.
Last month it was estimated that
the carlot movement of apples would
be 4100 cars but this figure has
jumped 600 cars since the first of Oc
J tobe r and the total is now placed at
cars with a possibility of 5000 for
the season.
The crop of 1919, which was four
million bushels, is the previous large
crop against which the 1921 crop is
rJmng a race. The exact yiehi for
t hj s ye ar's crop, which is 95 per cent
of normal , ls 4,085,000 bushels.
The increase in the number of cars
'o be shipped is explained by Mr. Ja
eobson as being due to the shortage
° f apples in the ea8t 0n accoun t cf
tb ' s shorta e e he sa y s > " a ver y large
proportion of the Idaho crop will
move out ln carlots and tbe shi P
ments are expected to reach 4700 cars.
on the whole, the quality and color
have been exceptionally high. Dis
tricts which heretofore have not been
commercially important, continue to
report a substantial number of cars
shipped each week."
In the United States, however, the
commercial crop dropped off more
than a million and a half barrels. The
commercial apple crop of the leading
states in barrels is as follows:
