Acting president of the university,
w. l.. Carlyle, who recently returned
from ten days trip through south
Idaho is enthusiastic over the progress
which is being made at the various
agricultural experiment stations in
that section of the state He visited
all the stations in southern Idaho and
attended Farmers day at Gooding
station. The farmers visitation day
movement was initiated at Gooding
last year and at its first trial attracted
over 1900 farmers. This year the same
event drew crowd of more than 5000.
The day was spent in the inspection of
the work of the farm and in addresses
by some of the most prominent agri-
culturists and other men of note in the
state including governor Haines.
In Bear Lake county the University
of Idaho is cooperating with the fed
'aral government in the determination
Of the alfalfa weavel and the expert
mentation in that line, says Mr. Car
lyle, is making great progress.
"The crop prospects in south Idaho"
said Mr.. Carlyle, "are better than they
have been for many years. In all sec

tions of the state that | visited the
fruit, hay and grain crops promise to
break all previous records in yield
and quality"
Mr.. Carlyle will make trip to Sand
point the latter part of next week to
start operations on the new agricultur-
al experiment station at that place
The site of the new station includes
175 acres adjoining the city limits and
was secured through a donation from
the Humbrd Lumber company. OF
this tract 100 acres will be cleared at
once and made ready for the neces-
sary buildings. An amount aggregat-
ing $500 has been subscribed by the
people of Standpoint and surrounding
country for the purchase of building
material and equipment. The Northern
Pacific railroad company has donated
$1,000 toward the clearing of the land
and a similar donation will soon be
made by the Great Northern. Building
and clearing operations will be COM
menced at once
The Standpoint station will replace
the one at Clagstone and will be used
entirely for experimentation in dairy
ing and stockraising.

"SOLOIST" NO MORE
DIR. CARITHERS

DR.. Carithers surprised the mem-
bers of the solo club by notifying them
that he was "soloist" no longer.
That while on their recent vacation
he and Miss Bess L. Mccormack, who
has had charge of the Inland Empire
hospital for the past several years,
were married.
The members of the club have be-
come accustomed to the cheating by
the different members; stealing the
widow" by David; dealing from the
bottom by Meeker and the methods of
cheating known only by Lewis, but
for the doctor to disappear and get
married without first advising them of
the coming happy event, they feel that
they have been more than cheated.
A meeting of the club has been
called for this evening and the mem
bers like the many friends and ac-
quaintances of the newly made bride
and groom, will extend them good
wishes and congratulations.

Rebels Again Victorious.

MEXICO CITY, July PA crushing
defeat of the federals and the cap
ture of Torreon by the rebel forces
led by Governor Carranza of Sonora,
is the latest report from the front.
The dispatches state that General Al
varez, the federal commander, was
killed in the battle. A thousand fed
erals with their cannon were captured
and nearly all of the soldiers who re-
manned loyal to the government were
later slain. The rebel victory is re-
ported to have been made possible
through the rebellion of the federal
soldiers who lent their assistance to
the rebels. Five thousand rebel
troops are reported to be advancing
on San Luis Potosi and a clash is eX-
pected soon. If the rebels should be
again victorious they will undoubtedly
continue their march to Mexico City
