In 1904 the expenditure of the United
States government for all classes OF
printing amounted to S7OS0 906.13. The
extent and variety of printed matter
now used in the conduct of the federal
government are clearly reflected by this
heavy expenditure. 1t also suggests the
possibility of liberality.

DUBOIS URGES

Would Have Reclamation Ser
vice Construct Reservoir
at Head of the Snake

Washington, Dec. g. Senator Du-
bois says the most urgent need OF Idaho
at this time is the adoption OF a plan by
the reclamation service for storing the
flood waters OF the Snake river 50 as to
increase the summer flow Of the stream
and provide ample water to irrigate the
vast tracts now being placed untler ditch.
1t has been demonstrated that the
Snake river toward the end Of the sum-
mer does not begin to carry sufficient
water to irrigate the Minidoka and
Twin Falls tracts and storage is urgently
needed. He will press the reclamation
service to Immediately undertake the
construction OF storage reservoirs on the
head waters of the Snake. Supervising

ed in Washington, coucurs fully with

TOBACCO RAISING
IN GEM STATE
The Plant Native Of This
Stale and Grows to Per-
lection in the Lever
Snake River
Valley.

A. B. Roberts, one OF Idaho's oldest
pioneers, in communication addressed
to the editor of the Capital News, says.
in relation to the recently raised ques-
tion Of tobocco raising in Idaho:
"In recent issue OF your paper see
an article on tobacco raising in Idaho,
which calls to my mind that tobacco
grows to great perfection in Idaho. And
why should it not be made a profitable
business here, if taken up in a systemat-
ic manner? Why should not all the ci-
gar factories of our city and surround
ing towns be supplied with home-raised
tobacco and, as natural result, large
tobacco factories established in our
state?
"In the valley of the Snake river there
is the finest native tobacco ever seen,
found growing Wild have gathered and
prepared some Of the magnificent leaves
and used them in smoking Int because
OF the imperfect manner OF curing the
article have found it rather strong;
but the flavor seemed to be very pleas
ant.
81 have thought for many years that
this native tobacco could be cultivated
and made one Of the finest articles OF to-
bacco ever grown in the world. The
fact that tobacco is native OF our soil
is evidence enough that it can be grown
to perfection in this state.
"Let some OF our enterprising farm
ers try few acres and prepare them
selves to properly cure the product and
l feel sure they would find profitable
market for their crop.
''The matter Of curing OF firing, to-
bacco, as it is called is not very difficult.
A small wooden shack and little care
is all that is needed, and then to make
sure, let the grower write to some friend
in Wisconsin for little extra informa-
ton"

They simply advise the inhabitants of the wigwams to do some farming, and then they draw their salaries. and the Amerinde let the white folks do all the hard Jrk. The Cheyennes and Arapahoes are pas- sionately fond of mescal beans and some even swallow "firewater."
 The Cheyennes are the thorough bred aristocrats of the Amerind race, while the Arapahoes. like the negroes, are looked upon as the scum of man. kind. Consumption and several other generally fatal diseases are thinning out the once very populous tribes. Incorporate eating and drinking cause much disease and general physical and mental ruin. Gay Lotharioism or lib- ertinism Is not encouraged, but often punished by banishing the guilty per- son from the community and from the presence of a member of the opposite sex. An ancient tradition relates that a certain nice-talking and good-Iook- ing Amerind, who was too sweet around lots of women, was securely fastened to a drunken horse. which jumped from high rock, killing itself and its unwilling human burden.

NEED OF TECHNICAL TRAINING.
Of More Importance to the Young
 Than Ever Before.

Technical training is becoming of vastly more importance than ever be- fore. and those nations which are of- fering the best technical training to their youths are making the most rap i'd industrial progress. says Frank A. vanderlip in Scribner's. A study of the international field brings that fact out with perfect clearness. Where education Is lacking industry is lag ging; where education Is sterotyped. industry is without initiative.
 The necessity for thorough education and the best technical training has be- come almost as great in commercial affairs as 1t has in the industrial field The methods of commerce today can not be as easily compared with the methods of a generation ago as can the process of industry now and at that time. but believe that the changes in the methods of commerce have. in many cases, been as radical and the improvement as great as in the field of industry. Two generations ago the trained engineer was looked on with disfavor by the practical industrial manager. The man who grew up in the business was thought far superior to the man who got his knowledgS from books
 The necessity for a technical en- gineering training is now universally recognized, and no important industrial operation would be undertaken without the aid of technical experts. I believe the same change Is coming in com mercial life. The commercial high schools of Germany. and the start in higher commercial education which we are making in this country are the forerunners of great technical schools of commerce. These schools will turn out men with as superior qualifications for commercial life as have the gradu- ates of the great technical institutions in their special field.
 I believe the great masters of com- merce will come to recognize the ne- cessity for and the practical advantage of such commercial training, just as the captains of industry have long ago recognized the value of technical train- ing for engineers.
