NEW YORK, Oct. 6.-The last fig

opening clash tomorrow afternoon
The final topic of conversation is
the possibility of Outfielder Snodgrass

not play, Shafer will be sent to center
field and Herzog to the third sack
1t is not denied that Captain Doyle
of the Giants is in poor shape There
is a slight possibility that he may be
unable to play. His shoulder, which
was injured in an automobile accident,
is still sore. The absence of Snod-
grass and Doyle will undoubtedly ma
terially weaken the team.

Object Of Campaign.

THE purpose of the Holder
Alfalfa campaign is to encourage the
more general growing of alfalfa upon
the farms of the Inland Empire.
alfalfa greatly improves the fertil-
ity and mechanical condition of the
soil. There is no crop which can be
grown in the Inland Empire that will
do more to improve the agricultural
conditions of Washington, Idaho and
Oregon, than the growing of this crop.
Numerous experiments, conducted by
the colleges, prove its adaptabii:ty IT,
the soil and climate of the Pacific
northwest. The yields of cured hay
from many sections are four to six
tons per acre per year.
Soil Loses Fertility.
Continuous cropping of wheat from
year to year will ultimately exhaust
the soil of its fertility; it is necessary,
therefore, that some leguminous crop
be placed in rotation with wheat. ALT
alta will not only produce from three
to four crops of the best hay per year,
but experiments prove that it pays
for the privilege by adding to each acre
of land upon which it is grown ap-
proximately $3.50 worth of nitrogen
commercial value), the principal ele-
ment of plant food.
Alfalfa growing. WILL in turn,
stimulate livestock ard dairying inter
ests and of necessity bring about a
diversified system of farm practice.
Waste Will Cease.
when the above conditions are
brought about, the wasteful methods of
away soil fertility to the grain
elevators will cease. Livestock will |
consume the forage and the fertilizing |
elements of the barn yard will be re-
urned to the fields; lands will become |
more productive and increase in per
Lcre value. Agricultural and CONNER
ial conditions will improve, to the
'enefit of town and country alike.

POPULAR HOSTELRY FROM

this morning when j. w. McCusker OF
this city purchased the interests OF
Herbert C. Cole who retired from the
management with the transfer. MI.
McCusker was on hand to take charge
today, however, Mr.. Cole will remain
at the hotel for period until the
new management becomes familiar
with the details in connection with the
hostelry.
The sale has been pending Tor sew
eral days but the consideration was
not made public. Mr. and Mrs. Cole
have conducted the hotel for the past
four years coming here from Lewiston
and during that period the hote( has
become popular with the travelling pub1
lie. Many improvements have been
made in the house and it has always
been the purpose of the management
to serve the public with the best OF
attention. Both Mr. and MIS-. Cole
will remain in Moscow for a period,
however, they anticipate moving from
the city in the future. Their plans
have not sufficiently advanced TO state
what they will engage in.

BIG VICTORY FOR
LOVERS OF BIRDS
Democratic Caucus In Senate
Restores Protection.

Washington.--Actio of the Demo
cratic caucus in the United States SEN
ate, in voting to withdraw the amend
ment previously adopted to the bird
protecting clause of the tariff bill, and
to restore the measure as it was writ
ten by the house committee, is taken
by those who have been waging the
fight against the Feather trade" as n
certain and complete victory for the
friends of wild bird life.
The new tariff bill will prohibit the
importation of wild birds plumage
for commercial purposes, no matter
from what country they come, and
will abolish in the United States and
all its territorial possessions the traffic
in skins and feathers of slaughtered
wild birds Among the senators who
worked in behalf of this measure are
Senators Mclean, Chamberlain, Lane,
who made an aggressive stand in the
caucus fight OF Tuesday; OGorman,
Hitchcock, John Sharp Williams, Gore,
Bryan, Bacon, Shivcly and others.
This campaign was inaugurated and
managed by the New York Geological
society and National Association of
Audubon Societies Immediately it
attracted the support of national and
state fcdcrations of womcn's clubs,
the State Audubon societies, many
patriotic societies of women, the Wo-
mems League For Animals and other
organizations and free lance leaders.
The number of personal letters writ
ten to members Of congress in this
campaign was enormous. 1t Is esti-
mated that 100000 would be under
rather than above the mark. The plan
is now to carry the fight to England
Germany and France.
