Independent in Politics Copy for change of ad. must be banded in by Wednesday noon to insure a change FRIDAY, SEPT. 21, 1917 The name of this paper has been changed from Camas Prairie to Cot- tonwood Chronicle, which name it will be known by hereafter. We believe that 99 percent of our readers will fa- vor this change, as it is shorter, easier to say and besides, the principal rea- son is that it proves a better adver- tisement for the town and community. Unless a paper takes the name of the town in which it is published, nearly everybody—except those well ac- quainted—must inquire where the pa- per is published. “Very few papers can be found any more that do not carry the name of the town in their head, and in fact the citizens ofa town and patrons generally insist upon this rule. Another proof of Cottonwood’s pros- perity is that it is next to impossible to find a vacant house for rent—es- pecially during the fall and winter months, when many farmers move to town for our excellent school advan- tages. Wherever you find a town with plenty of vacant buildings you are sure to find a poor business town that has’been the victim of fake boom- ers aff mushroom growth. However, at least 50 more dwelling houses could be rented. here readily at a rent that would pay better than ten percent in- terest, and the wonder is that some of our capitalists do not put up a num- ber of houses for rent.

Give me a chance to es here for rent forces many people to move to other towns during the school months, Every business house in any town should be represented in the adver- tising columus of the local paper—not alone for the benefit derived from ad- vertising—and that the needs the money—but for the benefit of the town and community in general. A country town is always judged from the appearance of its newspaper. If the paper is well patronized and looks prosperous, homeseekers and investors know that the town is a good place in which to inyest and locate. If the paper has a starved appearance they know the town is no good, and pass it up and go toa more enterprising place. An exchange suggests that since our laws or nothing else in the United States suit the I. W. W's they should all be taken out into the ocean and an island found for them to govern to suit themselyes, Wrong again. They should be taken out and dumped into the middle of some ocean and let them hunt their own island. It’s a sure thing they would not be satisfied with an island that anybody else would select for them. Cottonwood is perhaps the largest and best town in the United States without a lawyer—which is sure evi- dence that we are a law-abiding peo- ple. Chas. W. Greenough, who prac- ticed law here for several years, left here last June and is now practicing at Spokane in partnership with his father-in-law. “I never saw finer fall grown any- where in my life than they have this year on Camas Prairie—although only a partial crop.” This is the re port Dr. H.

In all of our stores may be seen samples of spuds brought in by the farmers that would be sure prize-winners at any county or state fair. Some of them would fill a gun- ny-sack—that is, of them would fill a sack. enough Have you noticed the fact that there has not been an explosion of a threshing machine in Latah county thus far this season? Some attribute this to the lack of smut in the grain. Others, and they are in a large ma- jority, attribute it to the ‘lack of I. W. W’s. in the harvest’ fields,—Nez- perce Herald.
