There ar none but wish Mr. Ford godspeed on his pilgrimage to the warring nations of Europe. Yet little hope springs in the hearts of the people for the success of his plan. The time does sot seem ripe for overtures by a neutral people. No doubt Germany would he glad to see peace, when her people could again giT their energies and their thou ghts to other directions than that of kill ing. So would England, and France, and Austria, and Russia, and all the other whose sons are shedding their Wood in the causeless war. But Ger many can not, after her sacrifice of men and of money, accept a peace that has a tinge of humiliation In it Neither can England, or France, or . Austria, or Russia. It does not seem likely, either, that any of the na tions mentioned, or their allies, could now lay down their arms and leave the Issue of the battlefield a debat able one. Before peace will appear near iome of the combatants must " feet that they hare reached the end of the rope. None yet gives the Idea rof exhaustion,' and there is no dead- lock that would; warrant the calling of a drawn battle. Evidently the war . must go on till some of the nations axe forced to retire through loss of blood or of credit And loss of credit will stop It sooner than loss of blood. THE BEET IN IDAHO. The current issue of the Rupert Democrat.published at Rupert, Idaho, contains a picture of a long line of four-horse teams hauling sugar beets to the dump for shipment to the sugar factory. With the picture is the following note of explanation: "A visit to the beet dump at Rupert Just now is worth while. Almost any time of the day there may be seen from twenty to fifty big four-horse wagons waiting their turn to pass the scales and climb the steep ascent to dump and load the big railroad cars which will shortly take the products of the heet fields to the factory, whence in a few week it will em erge in the shape of fine white refined sugar. "The sugar industry In this section of Idaho is giving many a farmer on the Minidoka project a competency. Here Is a staple market for every pound of sugar beets the farmers can raise, with a known price and the cash ready. The beet are grown on the project, refined on the project and the project furnishes every one of the two hundred or more men used at the factory in the business. "Tributary to the factory there is In the neighborhood of 8,300 acres devoted to the raising of beets. Twenty-two hundred of these acres are in Minidoka county and the bal ance in Cassia county. , "Twelve thousand ton of beets pas ever the Rupert dump, worth aixty thousand dollars to the Rupert farmers. On the whole Minidoka pro ject the farmers will get some hun dred and twenty-five, thousand dol lars In cash within the next thirty days. "The growers get all the way from twelve to twenty-five tons an acre RECORD NEW TRADE TO REACH MARK JAN. 1ST Washington, Nov. !8. By the end of the year America will probably have all the world' foreign trade re cords broken. Exports, according to estimate to day, will probably reach the enornv oua total of $4,000,000,000. thus sur passing the greatest year England, mistress of the seas, ever had. Nor is thla remarkable prosperity record evanescent. In the opinion of Secretary of Commerce Redfleld. He scouted the possibility of bad slump In the figures after the war, due to the absence of heavy muni tions exports, which for months have swollen this country's export figures. "We should look beyond the Im mediate cause and effect and into the future," he said. "Foreign na tions after the war will come to u tor machinery, steel, railroad stock and other uppHe." . Naturally, he pointed out, these demands will mean a continuance of the nation's remarkable export trade of the past year.. The bureau I for eign and domeetio commerce an nounced that for the year ended with October, the United State imported 11.691,748,015 worth of good, or nearly $300,000,000 worth lee than in the preceding year. In this way the account etandsfpreponderantly on the right side of the American ledger.

It may be cheap by the pound and high-priced by the cup. Cheap coffee can't be protected against loss of flavor. It is only such coffee as Schilling's Best that gets the absolute pro tection of airtight tins. " All the fine flavor I preserved for you. This means mor cups to pound economy and quality. Schilling's Best DO YOU FEEL HEADACHY? IiOOK TO YOVH STOMACH It is an unusual thing for a drug gist to sell meUktue under a guar antee to refund the money If It does not cure. Yet this Is the way C. H. Demar&y, the popular druRglut, Is selling Mt-o-na, the standard dyspep sia remedy. Never before has he had so larpa a number of customers tell him that a medicine has been successful as with Ml-o-na. People who a tew months ago looked like walking . skeletons have put on flesh and today are ruddy and vigorous with perfect digestion and good health. There la no longer any need for anyone suffering or making their friends suffer on account of dyspep sia. Ml-o-na can always he rolled up on. The percentage of cures is so great that there is little risk to C H. Demaray In guaranteeing to re turn the money If the medicine does not relieve. And he stands ready to do so without any questions. Headaches, all forma of indiges tion, specks before the eyes. dly feeling, -end all form of liver trouble are helped by Ml-o-na. A few days' treatment should show consid erable gain in health, while a com plete cure ofteu follows rapidly. BURIED ARM PAINED SALEM CONFECTIONER Salem, Nov. 26.

The signs will be taken down and the greatest shoe jSale ever held in Josephine county will be a thing of the past. , ' The Most Astonishing Thing about this great shoe 'sale is that where the people of Josephine County have responded to the call of these immense reductions there is one most important department which for some reason has been neglected. You have bought shoes for Mother, Father, and Sister, but apparently have forgotten Brother, and be ' cause Bartlett knows how important a factor Brother's shoe bill is in the average family he has given the Brother shoe the attention it deserves. The result is a large stock of the best boys' shoes made in America. The stock includes shoes for the roughest wear as well as for dress occasions, and to give the boys 'a chance Bartlett has ordered the price on boys', shoes cut to the last notch for this final wind-up Saturday.
