MARKET DAY SALE
SATURDAY AUG. 81
Potlatch Exhibit Growing
Streets being Sprinkled-
Another Market Day

Tuesday evening the Kendrick
Commercial Club met in the office
rooms off. #. Brown. The house
was called to order by the president
Walter McCrea. Only small men,
bership was present but considerable
business was attended to. The wat
er committee submitted their report
and it was learned that the contract
from the Northern Pacific company
was ready and the proper connection
for the tank was here. the man and
team had been hired for the purpose
of spripkling and the sprinkler will
start Immediately. Eight blocks Of
main street will be sprinkled. This
will te great thing as the stores
are troubled considerably by the
dust blowing in on their stocks. The
club also decided that on Saturday
August 31st. another market day
would be held. The reason for not
having one last month was that it
was considered everyone would be
too busy to attend. This market
day will be good one as everyone
will lend their help to make it the
best ever held in this country. The
committee on the fair exhibit is do
ing good work and several different
kinds of produce have been secured
and more is promised. The build
ing next to the Long butcher shop
in the west end of town has been Sc
cured and the exhibit will be ar
ranged there just as soon as the car
penters finish remodeling the build
ing. Then every farmer should
come and see what has been brough,
in and if they have any produce
that can out class what is there,
bring it, as this display is being got
ten up for the good of this district
and it will be benefit to everyone
living in it. This town is gooc
one and there is no reason why i
shouldn't put up an exhibit from
this vicinity that will out class any
thing in the northwest. If you hav'
a new variety of grain or produce o
any kind bring it in to the commit
tee and it will receive prompt atten
ton. Don't forget the date for tn
market day sale and if you hav
horses, cattle, or anything on tn
farm you want to dispose of, list
with the secretary of the club and i
will be advertised. If those havin
anything to sell will list it early
nough, the articles can. be advertise
so everyone will know what is o
sale.

GRAIN PRODUCED
AS WELL As FRUIT
Lewiston Company Makes
Big Showing in Crops
This Season.

Lewiston, Idaho. Aug. Especial
The operations of the Lewiston Or
chards company and the lewiston
Charleston Improvement company
are generally considered as dealing
exclusively with orchards. while in
fact the two concerns are among the
largest grain producers in the Lewis
TOM Charleston country and the farm
ing area this season will amount to
approximately 5000 acres. The
grain harvest is just now on and
both companies will have large
crop to market with the local buy
ers.
The Lewiston Charleston Improve
ment company is the larger of the
two concerns in grain growing oper
ations, having a total of 5000 acres
devoted to grain this year. Approx
imately 1000 acres were leased to
farmers while the remaining acreage
is handled by the company's force.
A total of 400 tons of hay has al
ready been harvested and the wheat
yield will amount to about $4,000
bushels. The yield is exceptionally
good in the Charleston section, the
average being about Is bushels per
acre.
The Lewiston Orchards company
has this season harvested about 45O
tons of hay and is now engaged in
the grain harvest. A big combined
harvester and thresher is being oper'
ated on the lands adjacent to the
city, where yield of from Is to 2e
bushels of wheat to the acfe will bs
secured, and on the lands farther re-
moved the yields will be consider
ably larger.

Moved to New Quarters

This week the Sprague Canning
company moved their outfit to the
coldstorage near the Kendrick Ware
house and Milling Co. This will
give the concern ample room to han
die the fruit. The company is try
ing to handle the output from here
so it will be a great benifit to the
producer.

UNIVERSITY FOR
THE FARMERS
Prof Olin Suggests Campaign
to Boost All Farm work
Throughout State.

Bring the best ideas and results in
agriculture to every farm in Idaho
and into every farm home.
This is what the University of
Idaho has set out to do through its
department of Agricultural extension
under the direction of Professor w.
H. Olin, head of the department.
Professor Olin, who has been at
the Chautauqua here as leader of
round table work and lecturer for
the last three days said:
Before we inaugurated the pres
ent campaign we made an investiga-
ton and discovered that reaching
the farmer is easier said than done.
We found that only 2 per cent of
the farmers of Idaho were being
reached by the information contain
ed in the state and national farm
bulletins.
1--WE decided that we must 60 about
the work in different way. One
method was the movable school.
By this plan we 90 into a commun-
ity and meet with committee from
that district. After consultation
with this committee we take up
those things in our practical school
work there which that community
especially needs. Nine of these
schools lasting six days each the
first year. This year we plan to
hold from l to 81 movable schools.
1--WE also work through the far
. mers' institute. Following my
work during the coming days in
Bonner county and in the Salmon
r river country we will have held far
mers' Institutes in every county in
the state with the exception of Sho-
r shone which is mining district. /
= Another method is through the
potato clubs. Thirty-nine of these
clubs' are now at work. We have a
potato map of Idaho. Through the
| stimulation of these clubs and the
+ prizes offered for the best result!
we hope to grow in Idaho in the
e year 1915 more potatoes than any
1 other state in the union.
J.. plans are now under way TO
q the Idaho Pure Seed show to b.
9 held in Idaho Falls in November
v That city has donated $500 to b.
i given in prizes for the best results
v One thousand dollars will 60 to po
tato contestants and $500 to whea
% growers. Post.

RIVER OPEN BY time
PANAMA CANAL IS
Completed Celebration Sug-
gested by Portland
Paper

Under the title Lewiston to the
Sea-" the Portland Oregonian editor
ially says:
There is now every reason to be-
lieve that by the time the Panama
Canal is open for traffic there will
be an open river from Lewiston to
the sea, for the work at Cello is to
60 forward with renewed activity,
the appropriation of 100000 made
by congress being now available.
THE Dalles Optimist, in speak
ing of the matter says:
Captain H. H. Roberts. in
charge of the canal work, in accor-
dance with an order from ]. J. Nor
row. corps of engineers, United
States Army. has again started ac-
tive work. and, it is stated, is hiring
every available man. Itis estimat-
ed that one thousand men will be at
work by the first of next month.
The amount appropriated is a.
bout as much as could be used to
advantage during the current year,
but it is hoped to get much larger
sum for the year to follow. But
even with the same amount as the
present bill carries given in 1913, it
would require only third appropri-
alton of $500, 600 to finish the work
if the present estimates of 81. 100, 600
are found to be correct, as they
most likely are, the work of Major
Morrow and his assistant having no
doubt been made with their usual
caution and accuracy.
1--WE have been talking for SC
many years about these Cello lock:
that we are apt now, when the com.
pletion of the work is in actua
sight, to lose sight of their impor
tance to Portland and a large area O
tributary country. When there art
regular lines of steamers running
from Portland through to Lewiston
and another line to the head of nav
igation on the Columbia, we will NJ
doubt add many millions of dollar
year to our wholesale trade, ant
the shippers of cereals and othe
commodities from the territory ad
jacent to those streams will make
saving in freights that will put then
on parity with the rail shipper
hundreds of miles closer to US.
"Just how river traffic grows i
shown by the report of rail and riv
er traffic in France and Germany
In 1880 the ton mileage of tn
, water ways of France amounted t
1,244, 900, 900 tons; in 1905 this ha
, grown to 3,153.OO0,O0O tons. I
1880 the rail traffic of that countr
was 6,417,OOO,OO0 ton miles;
!, 1905 it was 1O,959, ,OOO,O to
miles. In the water traffic, ther'
fore, the increase in this period W;
1884 per cent, while the rail traff
increased but 7O.7 per cent.
In Germany the figures are
vailable for a longer period-18I
. to 1905, and the increase for the
years was 300. per cent in rail ira
:. fic and 417.2per cent in water traffi
So it will be seen that as countl
advances and trade increaces tt
S boats get the lion share of the n e
& business.
