UNIVERSITY GROWING.
THREE NEW DEPARTMENTS ADDED THIS
YEAR.

A member Of the faculty of the
University of Idaho, Professor Ed
ward NJ. Hume, Of the Department
of History, was in town on Tuesday
in the interests Of that institution.
According to his report the State
University is in an excellent condition.
Last year." he said, was the most
prosperous in the history of the Uni
versity, and the College year that is
to begin September 20 promises to be
still more successful. Last year we
had SAB students and so instructors.
Next year we shall have about 700
students and over 60 instructors. The
central part of our new building is
now completed and ready 1or occu-
pancy. 1t is the finest college building
west of the Rocky Mountains. 1t IS
not equaled by any of the Alaska
Yukon Fair buildings, which will go
to the University Of Washington. 1t
is constructed entirely of stone, brick,
steel, cement and tile and is absolute
" fire PROOF.
For admission to the three new de-
partments that have been established,
Law, Forestry, and Veterinary APP
plications have been pouring in all
summer from all parts of the state.
The Agricultural College is in splendid
condition. Three buildings are de-
voted to that section of the University
in addition to the farm and it's build
ings. The Dairy Department is es-
pecially we'll equipped and popular.
There are two instructors who devote
all their time to dairying one to in
struction in agronomy, one in horti-
culture, one in agricultural education
one in animal husbandry, one in for
estry, one in veterinary, and two IN
agricultural chemistry. Then, too,
one of the three buildings devoted To
agriculture is the second largest on
the campus 1t would seem, there
fore, as though we had a pretty
strong agricultural college.
Our new main building is in ex
cellent condition. 1t will house al
: the literary courses-the various Ian
| guages, law, history, economies, litera
5 ture, sociology, mathematics and phil
J osophy. The several engineering de
= partments have four buildings of theii
own.

:. three students at the University las
: year-Olive Hall, Lydia Lahtinen ant

/ Miss Lahtinen, l can speak with frs
hand information, because she was
student in one of my classes. Sh
is one of the most promising student
we have If you have any NOR
students such as she is we swish t
have them up there. 1t is quite likel
that we shall get several new student
from here this year hear good re
ports about all OF them. We sha
doubtless find them we'll prepared
for such has been the case with a
the other students who have com
to us from here.

EXPECT REPORT ON BRUNEAU
SURVEY.
SURVEYORS ENGAGED IN WORK HAVE
COMPLETED THEIR TASK AND
SENT IN REPORTS.

Within reasonably short time it is
expected that the government will
place its stamp Of approval on the Of
fetal survey OF the Bruneau- Twin
Falls segregation OF some SOC, 900 acres
made by deputy United States survey
ors under the auspices of the surveyor
generals department General Utter
stated that the department has the
plats of the survey under its super
vision at the present time and that he
expects to receive official notice of its
approval soon. This survey is one of
the largest that has ever been made in
the state of Idaho including an en-
pire in itself.
1t was learned from General Utter
that one of the surveys made by the
engineers who secured the bid, was ac-
copied some time ago by the depart
ment. This contract only included the
survey of about half the project. The
other is still under consideration. Just
at the present time the approval Of the
survey is about the only thing holding
back the extensive work planned by
those promoting the project. When Of
fetal notification is given that the
government has accepted the survey
development work will Immediately
be taken up.
MAMMOTH PROJECT.
The Bruneau-Twin Falls project is
the biggest irrigation segregation
that has ever been made in southern
Idaho When the land included with
in its borders is placed under water
it is believed that one of the richest
agricultural districts in the north
west will be developed. Located be-
tween Bull on the Minidoka extern
sion Of the Oregon Short Line in thu
east and Grandview and Bruneau il
the southwest, this big tract of sag,
brush to the south of the Snake
river is as yet undeveloped The pro
posed extension of the Minidoka rail
road from Bull to Nyssa, Oregon
will pass through the tract and Civ
it railroad facilities equal to any 9th
en- section in southern Idaho. 1t i
now believed that several years viii
be occupied in the construction of tn
irrigation system and the building o
diversion canals. The water for tn
land will be taken from the Snak
