A LIBRARY.
(From Thursday's Dally.)
Tho itoni In tho Commercial club
report, read at yesterday's meeting
and printed In Tho Uullctln, to tho
ofrect that tho club had Interested
tho Carnegie Corporation to tho cx
tont that ns soon as ccraln things
wore dono loyally a building could bo
had, conies as good news. Fow knew
that tho club was Interesting Itself In
securing a library building. With the
matter carried to tho point Indicated
In tho report It would seem to be time
to start something toward mooting the
Carncglo requirements to the end that
wo may have a library building suited
to our needs.
Tho present library quarters arc
disgraceful. There can be no doubt
of that. And to make tho statement
Is to placo no blame for the condition
on any individual, tho oiamo oo
longs to the whole town, just as tho
blamo for any bad civic condition
rosts on everyone.
In 191C an effort was made in tho
Commercial club to provide quarters
for tho library In connection with the
thon proposed gymnasium. For lack
of intorcst nothing was accomplished
and tho gymnasium was proceeded
with. Wo should suppose that even
yet It was not too late to arrange for
a connection so that the library might
for Instance, have tho benefit of tho
nearby heating plant. That, how
over, Is a detail. Tho main thing is
to get a building. If the Commercial
club can arrange this It will have rcn
dered the town a real service.

agent, Mr. Ward.
"An Interesting Item In tho bulletin
refers to tho -development of the nuw
tun! aid and confidence Idea In tunl
part of tho state At an ngrlculturil
meeting hold last mouth, Couiuv
Agent Ward made his annual report,
In tho course of which ho mentioned
work ho had dono for tho cow testing
association. It appears, therefore,
that out Crook county way botli tho
dairymen and tho potato growers
have found It best to abandon tho old
go-it-alone method. They aro work
ing together."

A WAR MESSAGE
To the Retail Grocery Trade
of the United States
Only by tho complete coordination and maximum effort of
every fundamental factor in our national life can tho war be
won. The retail grocer has his Important function and his
duty to perform. If he falls In h's duty, tho war will ho un
necessarily prolonged and other economic systems will inevit
ably develop for distributing food products to tho consumer.
Retail grocers whose total annual business In food products
docs not exceed 1100,000 arc not licensed at present, but thoy
aro nevertheless subject to the Food Administration Law, which
prohibits hoarding, speculation and excesslvo profits.
Tho jobbers throughout tho country aro being required to
sell goods on tho basis of their individual costs, rathor than
on tho market. Many retailors, therefore, will own goods at
figures materally below the cost of replacement Much goods
must bo passed on to the consumer at no more than a reason
able advance over cost of the particular goods sold.
No patriotic merchant In these times of war will, on account
of scarcity, attempt to exact on any staple food moro than a
reasonablo profit over his cost.
The United States Food Administration wished to protect
tho vast majority of retailers who aro honest from tho public
criticism which is directed at tho entlro retail trade because
of tho few who tako advantage of war conditions and attempt
.to profiteer or speculate. It will not only tako direct Btcps
against such persons, but has already Issued a regulation pro
hibiting tho licensed manufacturers and jobbers from soiling
to any retailer who persists In such practices.
Every unnecessary service in connection with the distribution
of food products mus be eliminated. Deliveries and credits
must bo curtailed, and tho consumer given the benefit of sav
ings co effected In order that tho people may havo food ut
prices within their reach.
Hellovlng In the patriotism and Integrity of tho vast majority
of retail grocers, wo confidently rely on your full and complete
cooperation.
