Sheep-This week opens with the,
largest run of sheep and lambs for the.
season. AS the supply was little
late in arriving and time being neces.
sary for sorting, no offerings of any
account changed hands early First
advices from other markets Indicated
weak tendency in the general trade
and this, too, encouraged buyers to-
lay back until later in the morning.
Trade at no time was very active and
in some instances business was rather
dull. Sales were made in a sort of
leisurely fashion with large part Of
the offerings still in first hands late
in the forenoon. The general feeling,
however, was Is to Csc lower on both
sheep and lambs. Most sales of feed.
ing stuff showed decline of Is to
Csc below prices at the close of last:
week.

A BUSINESS ADMINS TRATI0N
President Taft Has Given Good
Government to the People.

From 1882 to 1892 the ordinary ex-
penses of the federal government in
creased at the rate of about 3 per cent
a year. In the succeeding decennial
period they increased about 4 per
cent year Under the presidency Of
Mr.. Roosevelt the annual increase
was almost per cent. Mr.. Taft has
not only stopped this annual increase,
which had SO long seemed inevitable.
but has actually brought about de-
crease. Under Mr.. Roosevelt the or
binary annual expenses Of the gov
eminent grew from about SAT- 100000
to $662, 100000, an increase of $751;
100000 in seven years. Mr. Taft has
reduced them from $662, 100000 to
1854 100000.
We talk q lot about economy in pub
lie affairs. Isn't it worth while to
stop a moment and give credit to q
president who has actually done what
we have all been saying ought to be
done?

500; common to fair beeves, $500 to
1926.
Cows and Mixed Stock-The offer
ings of cows and heifers were toler-
ably liberal and it took unevenly low
err prices to move them as there was
enough cheap steer stuff in the yards
to materially reduce the demand for
she stock. Slow to fully dime low
er than Friday would about cover the
situation and the trade was very slug
gish all morning. Veal calves were in
rather limited supply and quotably
steady, but there was a rather easier
tone to the market for bulls, stays,
ETC.
Good to choice heifers, $5.75 to
$50; good to choice cows, $3.50 to
6.25; fair to good grades, $4.25 to
$40; Gamers and cutters, 1925 to
4.25; veal calves, $500 to 800; bulls,
stays, etc., $4.25 to $50.
StOckers and Feeders-There was
no very burdensome supply of stock
ers and feeders carried over from last
week in yard traders hands, but fresh
receipts were the largest of the seas
on and this naturally had depress-
ing effect on the trade. General de-
mand for desirable offerings of all
weights was quite vigorous and any
thing attractive in the feeder line
sold very nearly steady with the
close of last week. Both yard traders
and country buyers were drawing the
line pretty close and the plain rough
and underweight grades were slow
sellers at lower figures, the decline
being as much as 10 to 15c in some
cases. Stock cows and heifers were
generally steady although some of the
commoner kinds We're slow and low
err.
Choice to prime feeders, $500 to

Hogs-There was a very small run
of hogs received today, only q cars
showing up. The market opened gen
orally to 1Oc higher on account of an
improvement in the general trade be-
ing reported at other live stock cen
tiers, a goodly number of hogs show
ing dime advance. The opening
trade was active, but as the morn
ing advanced the market became slow
and the closing prices were very lit
tie if any better than steady with Sat
urday's general market. A load of
hogs weighing $40 pounds sold for
sS.65, which was the top for the day.
Bulk ranged from $40 to $3.50.

DEMAND FOR LABOR
Unpreced ented Prosperity in the
United States Sends Up a Call
From Ocean to Ocean for
UnskiIIed Labor,

The demand for unskilled labor
never was 80 great in the United
States as it Is at present There is
also large and general demand for
skilled labor in many important lines.
The cry has gone up from New
York state and extends south along
the Atlantic coast, across the south
line OF the Union to California, up the
Pacific coast to Seattle, and back
across the heart Of the country from
Kansas City to st. Louis, to Chicago,
to Detroit, to Pittsburg.
Everywhere laborers are needed in
the harvests, the forests, the mines,
the factories, the mills; on the rail-
roads, for the construction of public
highways and In our great industrial
centers.
Even within hundred-mile radius
Of New York city the call is no less
insistent. Labor agencies cannot sup
ply the demand there. Contractors
need manual help for aqueducts, tun-
nels, building excavations. There is
work for every man willing to take
pick and shovel and utilize the oppor-
tunity to earn daily wage whose
minimum is $1.75.
Can anyone doubt that 1t is this con-
dition Of universally employed labor
which Is responsible for the high
prices for farm products-prices
which are giving the American farm
er the greatest degree Of prosperity
he has ever known?
And can anyone believe that these
conditions, either as to laborers or
farmers, would be bettered by q
change in the administration at Wash.

WEATHER CROP BULLETIN.
For week ending Sept. %, 1912.

DeS MOineS, Iowa.
The third week in September was
abnormally cold, with an excess OF
cloudiness and frequent showers. The
average daily temperature was about
Z degrees below the normal, and
light frost occurred in exposed places
on the 10Th and 21st, but no damage
was done. Showers occurred in some
parts of the state on five days, and
while the rainfall was fairly we'll dis
tributed it was generally below the
normal although many localities re-
ceived slight excess. The rapid ma
turing of corn was retarded by COOL
wet and cloudy weather, but it made
considerable progress and IS to u
per cent of the crop is beyond injury
by a moderately heavy frost. The re
mainder of the crop needs ten days
of warm, drying weather to make ii
safe, and three weeks to put 1t be-
yond danger of hard freeze. Silos
are being filled and considerable corn
nut in shocks. Seed corn is being Sc
cured in many localities, and that
work will be general during the com
ing week. The wet weather has also
prevented much threshing being done
and considerable grain in shocks and
stacks is reported to be badly dam
aged. The soil is in excellent condi.
ton for blowing and where the rain
fall was not too heavy fall seeding
progressed rapidly. Pastures, mea'
dows and late potatoes are doing well.

WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
Receipts Today Were 772 Cars in All
-14,3"0 Cattle, 1000 Hogs, 49,
600 Sheep and $50 Horses.

This week starts out with the heaV-
lest run of the season, there being
552 cars of cattle reported in. Al
though the total receipts were the
heaviest of the year to date there
were not enough corn fed cattle on
sale to cut any figure and the market
was nominally unchanged. Choice
finished beeves would sell all right if
there were any here, but the short
fed and warmed up grades are uncer-
tain sellers on account of the fact that
the dressed beef men prefer the good
rangers.

ACTUAL WORK STARTED
ON GEM DISTRICT
Supplies are Going Out Every Day
From Caldwell.

Supplies are going out of Caldwell
every day for the construction camps
located near the Nampa ferry. These
construction companies have been at
work on the Gem Irrigation district
project since the first. The supplies
are carried to Sebree- on-Lake Lowell
and then freighted to the camps.
The Crane Falls Power and lrri-
CATION company, which few months
ago purchased the bonds of the Gem
district, recently let the contract for
canals and laterals to Slick Brothers
and the agreement calls for the COM
pletion OF this work by July |. Guilds
& Company will build the pumping
Plant on the Snake river, which will
supply not only power for pumping
water from the river but also heat and
light for the settlers on the tract.
Both contracting concerns have

CROSSING SNAKE RIVER IN
BASKET LATEST METHOD
Stage Has Been Unable to Cross
Since Monday.

Passengers and the mail are now
ferred across Snake river in a basket
at Homedale. The Jordan Valley
stage has been unable to cross since
Monday Ia The ice in the river has
made the operation of the ferry boat
impossible, and consequently the bas-
ket method has been adopted.
Two or three years ago a similar
condition existed and Mr.. Jake Mus
sell, in his ingenuity, contrived the
basket method of transporting pas
Sengers across the river. A box or
basket was suspended from pulleys on
the cable, and as the cable Says at the
middle. no motive power was needed
to get the passenger to the middle OF
the stream When the basket stopped
at the center the passenger found a
rope hooked to the cable. He attach
ed this rope to his basket. A man
was on the other side to pull him up
the grade Passage of the river can
be had in about 20 minutes.

PIONEER TO INSTALL
DRAINAGE SYSTEM.
The Conservation of Water Will
Naturally Follow.

The board OF directors OF the Pho
neer Irrigation district have decided
to construct and install system OF
drain laterals for the purpose OF con
serving the water supply and drain
ing the swamp land in the di STREE.
special election has been called for
Friday. Feb. 9th, at which election
the question of issuing bonds will be
submitted to the people, 1t is pro-
posed to issue bonds in the sum OF
$4,000 for the purpose OF construct
ing the system. a
An irrigation district has power
and authority to undertake this work
as will be seen by the decision of the
supreme court, the syllabus of which
appears on another page of this issue
of The Tribune.
The necessity for this is easily APP
parent to the most casual observer.
Already hundreds r.. of acres of land
have been ruined for commercial pur-
poses, temporarily at least, by secpage
and over irrigation. If proper steps
are not taken at once thousands of
acres in the district will be rendered
valueless. In addition to retaining
the swamp land the water supply OF
the district will be greatly augmented.
In other words water which is now
running some lands will be applied to
the reclamation by irrigation of other
lands. The establishment of the
drainage system is the only sensible
thing to do. The cost will be less
than $1,000 per acre.
