place crushed rock about 6 inches
thick and as wide as Necessary along
the route making a good substan-
tlal road. Ice and snow will be the
only elements we will have to con-
tend with The hills between Pearl
and Emmett and Pearl and Boise
deny the profitable use of this means
OF transportation between those
points. We will handle from 20 to
80 tone per load and make the round
trip every 20 hours. We will run
day and night. The expense will
be about $500 per day, but of
course this depends largely on con-
dltious. Tractors are the only
things where the traffic is too heavy
for horses and too light for a rail-
road. They are used extensively
and are becoming more popular
each year. I have hauled $4,000
feet of lumber, 23 miles in 7 hours
and 20 minutes. This was a good

ing of the use of tracing engines,
Mr.. Hayward said further:
Gas an illustration of the use of
engines, Mr.. Ira Small of Lewiston,
the largest farmer in Idaho uses it
exclusively. He does not use a
horse on his place for farming. His
blowing, hauling of all kinks, etc.
is done by them. At the time he
first started to use traction engines
he displaced 36 head of horses. In
mountainous countries for the de-
velopment of the mining industry
the traction engine has wrought
miracles. No longer does the mine
with its rich ore deposits remain
idle because the railroad is not built
to it. The traction engine fills the
bill exactly. In the Boer war this
engine was used extensively by the
British government enabling the
British to bring the heavy guns
from their warship to the support
of the regular field artillery. It
was impossible to hauls such guns
across unbroken veldts with spans
of oxen. Traction engines are in
service in many capacities and as
their utility becomes more apparent

Idaho Sheep to Feed Warriors.

It is reported that 10000 sheep
have been shipped from Idaho points
to San Francisco during the past
week. Heretofore practically every
sheep that has been sent to market
has gone east to Chicago or some
other packing center of the east.
The shipment of so many in the op-
posite objection gives rise to the pre-
sumption that they are destined to
feed the army of either Japan or
Russia in the tar east. No state
ment, however, can be obtained OF
such a destination as the purchase OF
supplies from neutral nation tor
use by an army of either power
would not be made directly by the
government and the ultimate pur-
pose of such supplier would not be
given out. "It is not known: said
Mr.. M. B Gwinn, secretary OF the
Idaho Wool Growers Association
