Government Crop Statistics Expert Compares Idaho With
Sine Other Pretty Good States

A. F. Hit, Of Weiser, special sta
tistical agent for the United States
department of agriculture was a
visitor in this section the first OF the
week. Mr.. Hit says that the cOn-df-
ton Of Idaho crops, while not quite
normal, is yet better than that OF
either of the other state he covers
The first of April the three states
were practically the same, with a re-
duction OF about per cent from nor
NAL crop conditions. All have fallen
away somewhat, owing to the cold.
backward spring, but the others have
lost more than Idaho. The cold. dry
spring is prevalent all over the cOun-
try, so that short crop may be an
ticipated almost everywhere
Mr. Hit gives some quite remark
able statistics regarding the crops of
last year; figures which were avail
able to all, but which have perh APPS
been overlooked by many rea d eTS-
The report on spring wheat for Min
nesota, considered the greatest SPTIn =
wheat state in the Union, and for
Idaho, was the same-S5 per cent OF
a normal crop. But while Minneso-
tas So per cent yielded 1913 bush
els per acre, Idaho's correSpOn din
short crop was 25.5 bushels, or prac-
tically double the Minnesota yield
Washington, the same year, was
ahead of Minnesota, with an average
of Is bushels per acre; and Oregon
was yet better, with 1913 bushels
But Idaho was so per cent ahead of
the best of the others. In winter
wheat the same conditions prevailed
though the per centage was SOewh at
less notmiceable, Idaho havin & o
bushels, Oregon 23.2 bushels, an q
Washington 24.2 bushels per acre
a difference of only rs per cent In
favor of Idaho over the strongest or
it's competitors.

head Of the state horticultural de-
partment is a practical farmer, and

For New Commandment
Prof. Carver of Harvard Would Direct it Against Drink Instead of Blas-
 phemv.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 25.-Some changes in the Ten Commandments to make them apply to modern conditions are advocated by Thomas N. Carver, Professor of Economics at Harvard University.
 Prof. Carver in particular wants an entirely new commandment dealing with the liquor habit. He would have it take the place of the commandment which reads: '"Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.''
 "The employment of the word God and like blasphemies as they are ut tered today have lost their old-time significance,'' said Prof. Carver. "They are employed many times from pure force of habit, or an minimizing ut terance of the first sentence that comes to ones lips, and are demon strative of one who possesses a dwarf ed vocabulary, and a. lack of breeding or good taste.
 We see on the other side the in tense craving for stimulants holding many people who have our lives in their keeping, and once in the pos session of their desires, danger hangs over our being like the sword over any man who is placed in a high pos ition of trust in these times of high ly specialized life.''
 His substitute commandment would read: Thou shalt not drink to drunk enress nor bewilder, myself with strong drink

STAMFORD

Dramatic performances appear to be taking the lead this fall and for the coming winter in the way of enter tainments. On Nov. the Eastern Star people will give a comedy written by a local dramatiSt of considerable ability, called "How the Story Grew. It is said to be very amusing and well illustrates the snowfall accretions as the result of domestic gossip. An or chestra will enliven the interuldes, and the drama is to be followed by a real dance.
 Later in the season the Rebekahs will give a play called Returning Of the Spinster.'' This has no local col bring so pronounced that any particr- lar spinster can be recognized. The cast will include many characters, so there will be a fine opportunity for all who are hankering after stage ap- plause to butt in and try their luck.
 The proposed new fire alarm system for the town has been explained. It is very simple The proposition is to have an electric wire run from the residence of Allen D. Judson, the chief, to the bell in the Congregational church, and then have some artange- ment by which the chief can arouse the town by striking the bell according to ar understood code of signals. HOW far the bell can be heard, and who will wake up the chief when hre Harry WiEcoxson. Dr. Clapp and Chief Judson have been appointed a com mittee to install the apparatus
