IDAHO INTERESTS ARE INVOLVED.
Fight on Wool Tariff Being Made by
States Delegation.

A Washington dispatch says: The
Idaho congressional delegation is be-
coming considerably exercised over the
situation in which Idaho's interests are
becoming involved in the tariff strug-
gle. The fight on the wool schedule
is now being made, and in the opinion
of Senator Warren and others would
most materially effect western wool
growers. While the lead schedule has
been passed satisfactorily, it is not out
of danger, as certain influential con-
Germs in New York interested in foreign
lead mines are determined 10 change
the schedule If they can
New England and other eastern in
terests will insist on putting hides on
the free list. Lumber is yet undeter-
mined and those who failed to put it or
the free list are seeking to reduce the
rates to the lowest possible point
Almost every interest of the state
which is involved in the tariff at all
is having some kind of an attack made
upon it. The bill must yet be passed
upon in open senate, and then by con
I ference, giving two more opportunitie.
for change.

Dry Farming Experiments.

Bulletin "a of the Montana expert
ment station, under the title of t'Dry
Farming Investigation in Montana,
contains the results of all dry farming
experiments conducted so far in the
dry farming substations in the state.
the authors are Alfred Atkinson, agro-
nomist, and J. B. Nelson. superinten-
dent of dry farming substations.
On the first page of the bulletin is a
statement of the six conclusions drawn
from study of the data contained. In
brief these conclusions are:
/. That the dry lands of Montana
may be made to pay profitable returns
when properly handled.
2. That fall sown crops yield better
than spring sown ones and that turkey
red fall wheat gave the highest yield of
crops tested.
8. That light seeding, from three to
five peeks per acre, is better than
HEAVIER seeding in the case of the grain
crops.
4. That planting grain each alternate
year with a properly titled fallow be.
tween brings greater returns thar
growing grain every year.
5. That it pays to keep summer
fallow titled properly to prevent weed
growth and maintain a moisture con.
serving mulch.
The discussions presented cover the
yields harvested at the substations ir
the different parts of the state; the
relative yields of the different grains
tested, and other points of interest
along dry farming lines.

ROCKLAND TOWN
site OPENING
Carey Land Plan Of Making
Selections Adopted.
Registration Offices Are Now Open al
American Falls and Rockiand--
Free Barbecue Preceding the
Selection Of Lots.

A sale of lots in the newly plated
town of Rockland will be held at Rock
land at 2 O'Clock Monday, June 81.
Preceding the sale free barbecue
will be given, and some time during the
day the Rockland and American Falls
baseball teams will play free game.
Preparations for good time are being
made.
The plan followed in all the Carey
land openings in Idaho, that of regis
tering persons desirous of making pur-
chases and permitting them to select
lots in the order in which their names
are drawn from box, will be adopted.
No person will be allowed to select more
lots than his application specifies, and
deposit of $40 for every lot applied for
will be required. In case no purchase
is made the money so deposited will be
refunded on July Is. Registration Of
fees are now open at the Evans State
Bank in American Falls and at the store
of S. N. Morris at Rockland.
There has been store and meat
market at Rockland for years, but no
townsite has been laid out until now.
The townsite is in al old alfalfa field,
and is level, though we'll drained. On
one corner of the townsite is the beauti-
full church grounds and good church
building, and on another splendid
school building. Every lot has free
water right and the townsite company
will contract to put water on every lot.
The lots have been placed at low figures,
ranging from $50 to 500.
The Rockland settlement is one of
the oldest in northern Oneida county.
Until within the past year it has coa-
tanned about 800 people, but so many
new people have come to the country
that the population can not be approx
mated. The oldest settler now feels
like a stranger. The townsite is at the
junction of the east and south forks OF
Rock creek, and has several thousand
acres of irrigated land tributary, and
many thousands of acres of the finest
dry farm lands in the state. Last year
several fields of dry land wheat near
Rockland went from forty to sixty
bushels per acre, and the average was
about twenty-five bushels. The irri-
gated belt is splendid fruit growing
section.
The agricultural resources surround
ing American Falls are sufficient te
warrant the prediction that Rocklane
will rapidly develop into splendlo
town.

A Sorry Man.

Mr.. Al holland was in town last week.
Twelve yearc ago, with his father and
mother. he came here and filed on 1900
acres of land north OF town, using all
their rights. The land was dry and they
became discouraged and threw it all up,
after having built a good rock house
which they sold for SIS. A friend
asked him what he thought of it now
''Oh, he said, Il don't known but |
did all right by leaving. I have l60
acres near Pocatello which / was Of
fered $50 an acre for. Parties who
took your land here have refused S10o
per acre, said his friend. rs it posi-
ble?f said Mr.. Holland Zone never
knows what will come"

Power Gowing to Waste.

There is vast amount of power go
ing to waste over the falls every day.
At low water season there is water
enongh passing over the falls to gener-
ate u, 900 horse power, but at this
season there is probably l5o, 900 to 200,
600 horse power. The river is very
high. by some said to be higher than
ever known before. There is little
driftwood running however, as the high
water of two years ago, following sew
eral seasons of comparatively low
water, cleared about all the driftwood
from the banks.

Dry Land Alfalfa Eighteen Inches High.

Heber ]. Ralphs brought to town,
Wednesday, a sample of dry land alfalfa
grown by him eight miles south of town
that is eighteen inches high, and as
fine as any irrigated alfalfa that can be
found. The sample, which is apparent
ly within two weeks of blossom, indi-
Gates a weld of about three tons to the
acre, which at the average price OF IS
to SO per ton in the fall, is profitable
crop. Not only will he get good crop,
but will have fine summer and fall
pasture. There has been little dry land
alfalfa grown so far, but there will be
much with the next few years.
