HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The high school football team won
the game with Palouse high school
last Saturday on Rogers field by the
close score of two to nothing. The
game was played in soft, clinging
mud which prevented fast playing
The local team had the best of the
game from start to finish and at no
time during the game did Palouse
have chance to score. The home
team very clearly made a touchdown
in the last half of the game but this
was not allowed by the referee, Cecil
Cave The second half of the game
was played entirely in Palouses ter
ritory.
The team goes to Colfax Saturday
to play the Colfax high school team
and the athletic association is en-
dcavoring to secure the names of
thirty-five students, besid es the
team, who intend to root" for the
team. If these thirty-five names can
be secured the railroad will give
rates of fare and third for the
round trip and will furnish a special
car for the students. Since the two
teams have played tie game earlier
in the season ii is certain that the
game will be exciting and many of
the high school students and high
school supporters will accompany
the team The team has been prac-
ticing hard this week to become ac-
costumed to the mud which they ex-
to play in at Colfax.
The school board has decided to
dismiss school Friday afternoon to
allow the students to attend the game
ut Moscow. The students have pro-
missed to be at school a half hour
early on two consecutive mornings
to make up part of the time lost.

When left in loose heaps under

loses Ii per cent of its nitrogen
When these heaps are not covered
this loss amounts to SO per cent. and

case when it is left on the barn lot,

Putting it differently, the same manure
that when properly cared for is worth

the unprotected thin layer at the end
Of that time is worth only $1.10. This
is not the extent of the loss, for that

Outlook for Agriculture.

Salisbury, N. c., Nov, President
w. w. Finley, of the Southern Rail
way, addressing large gathering here
to-day, and later speaking at banquet
of the board of trade, expressed the
conviction that in no area of equal ex-
tent in the world is the agriculture out
look brighter than in the Southern
States, and urged the farmers not to
neglect the cultivation of cotton.
1--WE may well look forward to time
in the not far distant future" said Mr..
Finley, when the world will call on the
American cotton planters for 20, 100000
bales every year"
Mr.. Finley did not counsel the grow
ing of cotton to the neglect of other
crops, but suggested that an increase in
production is necessary to keep pace
with the demand of the world and that
it might be accomplished by more in
tense cultivation and by the growing of
a variety of other crops with cotton to
the profit of the farmer
