CAMPAIGNING IN THE WINTER
Situation of the Armies in Europe in
Case War il Long Continued.

An eastern paper makes the fol-
lowing interesting observations on
the European war. in case it is con-
tinued through the winter:
Suppose the war is undecided. as
seems almost sure. when winter
closed down on northern Europe. The
Russians advance into Germany will
be made through a country whose
climate in winter is not unlike that
OF our middle New England. Snow
lies on the ground in much of the re-
gion from November till late in
April.
The defending Germans will oc-
cupy the barracks of strongly forti-
fed towns and cities. with every pos
sible arrangement for the keep and
comfort of the men. The Russians
will find themselves on the outside
doing their best to live in the open
country or in such villages as they
may occupy. They will be able TO at
tack only after dragging guns and
material many miles over frozen

BARK WITHDRAWN.
Washington Officials Order Don Bark
to Discontinue Efforts Tor
Arbitration.

For reasons that have not been
given to the public the chief OF the
reclamation service at Washington
has ordered Don II. Bark. the we'll

eer. who on behalf OF the state land
board and the bondholders has heen

ferences with the water company 10

matter.
Speculation is rife as TO the rea-
sons for this action on the part OF
the Washington officials. 1t has been
suggested that the government sus-
pected that the state land board was
PLAYING politics with one of their en-
gineers. and another suggestion Is
that the department did not wish to
become involved in any way III the

We believe that few people. even
in this section, realize the great
scenic wonders that are in close prox-
unity to US. A Twin Falls paper
states that A number of Twin Falls
people are preparing for a thorough
exploration of the famed ice caves
near the Cottonwoods north of Sho-
shone in Lincoln county on Saturday
and Sunday of this week. The plan
was evolved by Mrs. X. w. Spangler
who has promised that the investiga-
tion will be aided by Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred Gooding, of Shoshone, the ice
caves being located near the Good
ing ranch. The members of the party
go equipped with ropes and ladders,
lights and prepared to cover the in
nermost parts of the caverns. The
ice caves contain many beautiful
formations and as far as known have
only one other rival in the world.
Little is known. however of the ex-
tent of the formations owing to the
limited territory explored. If pos
sible, fiashlight apparatus will be
taken along and pictures taken of
the caves

The Burley Bulletin has the fol-
lowing regarding the sugar beet con-
ditions in that section:
Notices have been sent out to all
farmers whose beets are ready 10
harvest to begin digging on Sept. 2s.
Plans are being made to start the
local sugar factory between the first
and fifth of October. depending on
how rapidly the beets come in.
The tests this year show the beets
running on an average of about l..
per cent sugar. practically the same
as last season. On the other hand,
the average yield per acre will be ap-
proximately 10 tons. one ton heavier.
and the total acreage in this district
is 5000 as against 55)0 in 1913. At
that rate the beet crop means $780,
OOO TO the farmers here this season.
Conditions for handling the c.cp
are much better than heretofore. The
farmers have their thrashire and
other work we'll done, and there is
an abundant supp. Of labor, both
for the fields and for the factory. The
factory has been thoroughly over
hauled and enlarged during the pas
summer, and is in better condition
than ever before to handle the bis
crop. 1t is estimated that the cam
paign this year will run about s.
days.
