FRENCH URGING SURVEYS
Made Speech in Congress to Hurry
Things Up Some.

WASHINGTON, Jan 22.-Represen-
tative Burton L. French last week
spoke in the house of representatives,
in advocacy of his bill, providing for
an appropriation of $125,000 for the
survey of the two million acres of lieu
lands scattered throughout the state.
Mr.. French urged congress that
these lands have been owned by pr;-
vate companies for ten or fifteen
years, but in view of the fact that they
are unsurveyed, they are not patented
and consequently are not paying taxes.
He urged that the immediate survey of
the lands and the issuance of patents
will save the people of Idaho $4,000
annually in taxes that will be paid
by the owners Of the lands i'll ques-
ton.
There is much interest in the SUBJ
ject, and Mr.. French is confident his
will be enacted into law.

DR.. Sisson is planning to deliver sinii-
lar addresses at the movable schools
soon to be held in various parts Of
southern Idaho. He is quite enthus-
iastic over the success that attended
the farmers week at the University
of Idaho. At first the farmers
seemed to be skeptical and remained
away. But when the practical nature
of the work became known the wide
awake progressive citizens OF that
section fiocked into Moscow and took
full advantage of the special lnstruc-
ton. One phase of the work that
appealed to DR.. Sisson as especially
practical and valuable was the scor-
ing of animals. After this work OF
scoring was finished the anlmals
were butchered and cut up to i'st
the accuracy of the scoring.
This week the state board OF du-
cation is to meet in this city in
three days session with all members
present. At this meeting the matter
Of a new president of the University
of Idaho will be considered as well
as several other matters of vita. I'M

RAISING THE SUBMARINE
Crew Now at Work Trying to Bring
the AZ From the Bottom OF
Whitesand Bay.


PLYMOUTH, Eng, Jan. 22.-While
not even the most sanguine relatives
have the slightest hope that any of
the II men buried at sea in the ill-fat-
ed British submarine AT are alive.
their fate will not be officially known
until the diver has been placed in dry
dock.
The Admiralty gave orders when the
work Of raising the vessel was begun
at dawn by an especially equipped
salvage lighter, that no attempt be
made to open it until it was safe in
the naval dry dock. 1t is estimated it
would take all day and perhaps longer
to raise the submarine.

SEED INSPECTORS DEPUTIZED
Deputy State Horticultural Inspectors
Given Additional Duties.

BOISE, Jan. 22.-All deputy state
horticultural inspectors, including
under the auspices of the horticultural
department, are now denutized is pure
seed inspectors. G.. X. Macy, state
horticultural inspector, announces he
has made this arrangement with the
state seed inspection department
and believes that the combination will
not only prove advantageous but will
| be economical. AS there are some IS
| deputized horticultural inspectors in
the state big force of deputy seed
inspectors is added to the states force.
THE Deputies under the arrange
ments made are authorized in all To-
calities of the state in which they are
located to inspect seeds where they
are displayed for sale, take samples il
tehy find evidences of foul seed and
send them in to the state seed depart
ment where they are analyzed," said
Mr. Macy. "In this way IL will be
possible to ascertain whether or not
impure seed is being sold in the state.
Deputies are paid at the rate of 40
cents an hour for inspection work.
They collect this and the money goes
into the general fund of the state in
the form of fees. Under our present
law the state horticultural department
in turn must pay from its fund to each
inspector the amount he has turned
into the general fund so that while the
state receives the fees the horticultural
pays it back again from
it's own fund to the inspector, who is
only paid for the time he puts in.
Under the plan We have now en-
tered into with the pure seed depart
ment that department will not have to
send deputies into the field and 70
various parts of the state for our in
,pectors will test and examine all seeds
and send in samples for analysis.

NJ. E. Lewis The evils mentioned
in the presidents message are known
to all. The message discusses these
evils in a calm, conservative manner.
The remedies proposed have all been
adopted by public opinion to a very
large extent. So far so good. The
real remedy for the correction of the
existing evils lies in the form the pro-
posed laws take on their final passage.
and in the manner of their enforce
ment afterward. We await the final
outcome with considerable interest.

ADDRESSES HIGH SCHOOLERS
Dean EIdridge Speaks This Morning
on Language and Customs of
Germans.

Study, study, study" was the warn
| ing given to the students of the high
school this morning by Dean J. G
Eldridge of the university who de-
| livered a most interesting and enter
tanning address at the high school aud
| itorium at the student assembly. But
the warning soon softened into talk
on more pleasant topics and the speak
er's remarks were turned in the direc-
ton of a discourse on the study of
German" this language being Dean
Eldridge's specially at the varsity
His remarks were not limited, how
ever, to the language of the Germans
but dealt also with their customs and
habits in the "old" country. Their
language is studied, said the dean, not
merely as a linguistic training but as
a means of developing in the students
a broader view which can best be
termed an international mind" The
study Of German like the study of any
other modern language, gives to the
students clear insight into the ways
of living of the peoples across the
seas
Dean Eldridge's address was one OF
a series of talks given at the high
school assemblies by members of the
faculty. The university
has supplied assembly speakers for
the high school once each week dur
ing the entire year.
