MORE BOOZE
Sheriff Smith and Marshal Albee
captured a good supply of Illegal stim
ulant nt the G. Parachlno home last
week and G. and A. Parchlno wero
taken Into custody. At their hearing
they were both found guilty of having
tho liquid In their possession and were
each assessed a hundred dollar fine
and some decorations which amount
ed to several dollars. The offlrers
wero In Llsco a day or two before
the raid and had confirmed their
suspicions as to whero tho supply
that was being taken Into that town
was located. They waited a day In
order that they might capture the
car that has been bringing the hootch
here from Denver but they failed to
get the boat. It will bo carefully
watched for and will be taken In
If it should be brought to this country
again. It seems that these things can
get by for a time but the officers are
usually pretty well informed on the
doings of thoso inclined to Ignoro the
Volstead act. Tho chances aro that
thero are some more in this part of
tho country who feel secure In their
own minds, who aro not vory many
jumps ahead of officials. Garden Co.
Tho moths or millers which aro
found in such abundance at this time
of tho year and which fly about tho
lights in our homes when they can
get Into tho houses, are tho parents
of the terribly destructive cutworms
which destroy so many garden and
field crops. County Agent Kellogg has
Issued a statement which says that
tho best way tq destroy them Is to
fill a tub half full ot water and put
one-elgth of an Inch of any kind ot
oil on the water. Hang a lantern or
any kind of light a few Inches above
the oil. It will enpturo nnd kill the
moths and for every femnlo thus de
stroyed, about 200 eggs will go to the
samo- way. Tho brown moths are not
doing any harm when they aro flying
against tho glass or screen or when
they aro flying about the lights but
they lay eggs which hatch into worms'
which do tho damage.

Both Must Be Paid
It is just as essential to the public that we pay
fair wages for the use of the dollars invested in our
property as it is to pay fair wages to our employees.
We cannot keep capable employees if we do not
pay fair wages. And we cannot get the new money
we need each year from investors to make improve
ments and extensions if we do not pay all expenses and
earn a fair return.
In order to extend and develop our system to meet
the demands of the public for service, this company
must obtain millions of dollars from investors each year.
It is to the public's interest, as well as to the
interest of the employee and the investor, that the
telephone company be prosperous.
