NEWSPAPER SHRINKAGE
Many idaho Papers Have Been
Reduced in Size

An interesting spectacle presents it
self this summer in the Idaho news
paper field. Publishers who have been
printing six pages have dropped to
four, those printing eight pages have
dropped to six or four and some that
had grown to twelve or sixteen pages
have gone back to eight or ten.
1t is the unmistakable sign of hard
times, and an interesting thing about
the Idaho newspaper men is that they
kept up courage and printed the full
size papers for some time after their
advertising ceased to justify it. Be-
ing good boosters they would not put
out papers that indicated hard times
until it pinched so hard they had to.
Each week as our exchanges reach US,
we notice this sign of retrenchment.
and We read plainly in the size of the
paper, the publishers acknowledge
ment, Business is dull. Advertisers
are curtailing, SO are we, if we can't
break even, we will come as near it as
possible. '-Blackfoot Republican.

CONTRACTED POTATOS
Twin Falls Man Contracts Crop
At Good Price

J. P. Perrin has contracted for the
sale of his potatoes to Mr.. Cook of
Lincoln, Nebraska, at price of S1.0O
per hundred pounds in the field
The price is good one, one of the
best that has ever been paid in this
section but owing to the scarcity of
potatoes this year that product will sell
very high. The potatoes will not be
sorted but the purchaser takes every
thing as it comes from the field.
AT the price paid for the potatoes
Mr.. Perrin thinks that he will be able
to clear about 5000 per acre on the
raw sage brush land that was never
cultivated before until this season.
He reserved four acres for his local
customers and for seed purposes next
year. Twin Falls Times.

Aid For Irrigators
Automatic Pump Invented That Will
Be of Great Benefit to Ranchers
in Irrigated Districts

What is claimed to be the greatest
aid to the work of irrigation ever in
vented and devise which will double
the merit and the effectiveness of this
mode of agricultural~and horticul tural
farming is the Larson automatic pump,
model of which has been installed
and operated at the W. H. Thompson
ranch on the bench for the past week
The pump operates upon the princi-
pie of hydralic pressure, and is said
to be pronounced by irrigation experts
and reclamation engineers as the
most practical solution of the means
of supplying water to heretofore arid
land yet evolved. A number of promi-
nent orchardists and irrigation men of
the state were invited to witness
the pump in operation, and they were
generous in their praise. Among these
men were l. B. Perrine, V. C. Heg-
stead, M. l. Church. F. S. Hanna, w.
s. Kuhn and D. c. McWatters.
1t is claimed that the pump can be
installed at cost surprisingly small.

w ater Tests Made
Don III. Bark Makes Interesting Exper-
iment as to Amount of Water Nee
essary for Good Crops

Tests which have been made at the
Gooding experimental station disclose
interesting facts as to the duty OF
water according to director Don H.
Bark, who was recently in Gooding.
Different amounts of water have
been put on three kinds of grain, the
Sonora, Bluestem, and Defiance wheat
to find out how much water should be
applied to get the best results. The
amount of water varied on 27 different
plots, from dry farming, with no ap-
plication Of water, all the way up to
four feet during the season. The stuff
has not been threshed yet and when it
has more important data will be forth
coming.
The observations show that these
grains grew finely to depths Of from
one and half feet of water to two
feet, but from there on they dropped
off on yield of both straw and grain.
This, therefore, indicates that about a
foot and a half of water is the right
measure for the season on that par
ticuar soil and for that kind of crop.
The soil at the station is the typical
lava ash which is common to a greater
part of southern Idaho, so that probab-
ly similar results would be secured IN
other places.
Mr.. Bark and his associates have
been dong new line Of experiment
work of vital interest to irrigationists.
They have been testing out the carry
ing capacity of the irrigation canals
particularly those lined with different
substances, such as wooden fumes and
concrete canals
1t is observed that sometimes the

this equipment means an outlay of
from S. to SIS per acre. Of course,
the larger the tract of land to be irri-
gated, the larger the pump necessary,
which accounts for the uncertainty in
Reckoning the actual cost. The capac-
ity varies in the different models, the
smaller pumping gallon a minute,
while the maximum limit to date in
the larger models is given as approx
mately 200, 900 gallons minute. The
pump in operation near Boise will
elevate 1000 gallons per minute, throw
ing the water 63 feet in the air and
sufficient in quantity to irrigate 500
acres. The average life of usefulness
of the pump is placed at 20 years, with
an outlay of only a few dollars each
year after the cost of installation.
The pump, which was invented by
l.. A. Larson, is suitable for use in ir-
rigation projects, hydraulic mining,
and for city water systems. F. c.
Hanna of the reclamation service pro-
nounces the pump to be well designed,

IMP PORTANT RULING
Judge Walters Renders Decis-
ion in Water Case.

Judge Walters. has announced a
decision in case of far-reaching i'm
portance and which is without parallel
in the history of litigation in this state.
The case concerned was entitled
Frank Marshall vs. the Niagara Orch
ard company, and it appeared that the
Niagara Orchard company were the
owners of a certain tract of land on
Snake river, near Buhl, upon which is
situated huge spring capable of de-
veoping several thousand horsepower
Marshall had made application with
the state engineers Office to secure
said spring as power site and the
defendant company contested his right
in this regard on the ground that mas
much as the spring was located within
their land that the state engineer had
no authority to grant permit, and
contended further that water appropri-
ations could only be made on the un-
appropriated public domain and not up
on private lands.
Judge Walters held that in this state
an appropriation to divert water may
be made upon the private lands of any

engineers get the cross section Of a
concrete canal to large, because of a
lack Of knowledge Of the roughness Of
concrete and the carrying spa ity of
canals lined with concrete. If the
canal is to large, a heavy waste Of
money occurs. When it if to small,
the defect is just as vital, because the
canal can't carry a sufficient amount
cf water.
Mr.. Bark for the purpose Of his ex-
periments, used sections of five large
canals lined with concrete, including
the government canal on the Boise
project, the Ridenbaugh canal, the
North Side Twin Falls canal at King
Hill and the main canal of the Salmon
river project near the Salmon river
dam.

Sounds Like Battle
Recorder Editor Tells Statesman Re.
porter About OwinZa Cutoff
Headed for Boise.

You think that half dozen bat
ties were in progress, through listen
ing to the bombardment of blasting on
the Richfield- Boise cutoff, " is the tes-
timony of Charles J. Lisle of the Rich
field Recorder, who recently returned
from trip along the whole length of
the road from Richfeld to the present
prospective terminus near Taft.
''While it is true that the road will
have to be built pretty rapidly to fin
ish this year, it is easily possible to
have trains running the whole length,
and the bridges and culverts are being
put in now. Work on the bridge
across the Big Wood river, 10 miles
from Richfeld, is now going on steadi-
ly. The bridge will be 100 feet high
and close to 400 feet in length. The
Malad river, will be only little
smaller-two pretty good structure }.
Some heavy rock work is now being
done on the line by the Utah Con
struction company, which has the con-
tract for the whole line. The greater
part of the earthwork is already done
on mosS of the line.
L ''The road can't get into the Ca'nas
prairie country too soon for the needs
of the people. Some of the finest
crops that ever grew in the west are
now being harvested there, and there
will be several hundred THOUSAND. bush bush

out. Thousands of tons of hay-brome
grass, timothy, wild prairie hay, and
alfalfn-will be on the market as this
years surplus.
'It would delight the eye of any
grain enthusiast to see what is grow
ing this year on the Richfield tract OF
the Idaho Irrigation company. There
is an abundance of water-several
Zines as much as the cultivated area
could possibly use-and the crops are
good in proportion. Oats six feet tall,
thai promises to yield 80 to 80 bushels
per acre: wheat five feet tall, that
should yield so bushels or better; al
faJ ia only one year old that will cut
four or five ton to the acre; potatoes
that promise to beat anything that
most of the growers have ever seen
anywhere, are growing in profusion
all over the tract. High assessments,
low assessments, politics, tariff, east
ern drought or any other calamity does
not touch the Richfield farmer this
year. While the acreage is compar-
atively small, everyone who has put IN
crop will reap bountiful harvest.

of the country in Lincoln and Blaine
counties, where the new railroad and
the new irrigation project are being
developed, petitions are in for six or
seven new and much needed postoffices

100000 FOR LIGHT ST. BRIDGE.
Baltimore Mayors Plan Also Proposes
Filling In Shadows For Factories.

Mayor Preston gave out some of the
details yesterday of an interesting plan
he has for a new bridge over Spring
Gardens, at Light street, recommended
several weeks ago by the Harbor
Board. From an engineer be has re-
ceived a report showing that con-
crete structure could be built for $780,
600. which is $500. 600 under the tenta-
tive estimate of Harbor Engineer
Lackey.
In connection with the proposition
the Mayor suggests that the city ac-
quire the marsh land Immediately west
of the present Long Bridge" on the
Anne Arundel county side, riprap it.
fill it in and convert the land into
manufacturing sites. 1t is estimated
that about 200 acres of land could be
made valuable in this way by the
duming of non perishable refuse col
lected by the Street Cleaning Depart
ment. The Mayors plan also contem-
plates the filling in of a large section
of the low land at the city end of the
present bridge.
Mayor Preston, of Baltimore, said he
had written to the County Commission
ers of Anne Arundel county asking
their co. operation in the movement,
but that it would be impossible for
them, in the county's present financial
condition, to make an appropriation to-
ward q new bridge.

ticultural Society, the Cereal and
Forage Crop Breeders Association,
The Maryland State Dairymen's Asso-
citation and the Maryland Bee Keep
ers' Association.
The annual meetings of the associa-
tions, as well as those of the Maryland
State Grange and the Maryland Farm
ers' League, will be held at the same
time in the Armory. Already the in
dications are that the exhibits Of all
products Of the farm, the dairy, etc,
will far exceed any before shown in
Maryland along this line. There is
nothing better than Maryland wheat
and corn its fine varieties of apples,
peaches, pears and other fruit, it's
vegetables, its dairy products, its flow
ers and ornamental plants, etc.
Besides the beauty and attractive
ness of the exhibit. it will be highly
educational to the farmer, fruit grow
ers and others. The time for holding
the exposition is believed to be best
suited for the country and city people
to join together and exchange ideas on
-the growing Of crops and the best way
to market them, and to become closer
linked socially. More than $4,000 in
prizes will be awarded to the farmers,
fruit growers, florists, dairymen and
