mands of regular customers. The pos
sibility for any big speculative sales
has naturally been cut off, and the
growers must hold their tonnage in
restraint and feed it out as the coun-
try can absorb 1t. Nothing would be
more fatal to the growers of the north
west than for them to start consigning
their shipments OF accepting small adj
vances which will place their crop be-
yond their own control.
This years big production, unaf-
fected by the war situation, would
have meant fair or moderate prices for
northwestern fruit, and still believe
that we can obtain them If we can keep
the supply under control and only dis

profitably buy 1t outright.
New Channels of Trade.

opening and developing new channels

South America has been proposed

CAN REQUIRE THE
TAKING OF Oath
At THE PRIMARY
No Provision Is Made in the
Idaho Primary Law for
Converts to Any Political
Party.

In Idaho at least, according to the
primary law amended by the last leg
islature, there seems TO be no provis-
ion for change of political faith, which
might be possible, between the last
general election and the primary, mas
much as there is no provision in the
law as to how an elector can become
member of the political party the can
didates of which he wishes to vote for
1t is claimed that many of the poll
ticians who were working overtime to
throw restrictions around the primary
law are now kicking themselves for
their activities. There are a number
of interesting features in connection
with it.
The primary law provides when an
elector offers to vote, he shall call for
the ballot of the political party of which
he is a member and shall have the right
to receive the ballot of such party only
He may be challenged on the grounds
that he is not member of such politi-
cal party and required to take the fol-
lowing oath:
do you solemnly swear that you
are member of the (naming the polit-
ical party of the ticket called for) and
that you intend to affiliate with such
| Peii ~ a. NiiS hCAL SS4lSAol S4SSlloH hHu
that you intend in good faith to support
it's candidates generally And if upon
being required to make such oath or
affirmation by judge Of election he
refuses he shall not be permitted to
vote.
"A political party of which the cleo
tor is required to be a member, is de-
Tended by the primary law as follows:
"A political party within the mean
ing of the primary law, is an affiliation
of electors representing a political or
ganization under a given name, which
at the last preceding general election
cast for any candidate on their ticket
at least 10 per cent of the total vote
cast for all candidates for the same

Famine of Wool Products Is
Predicted by Secretary

That a wool famine may result be-

of which have just been received by

wood will be correlated with any
new data gathered and used to indi-
cate improvements.
Among the related Industrial and
business questions which will be con-
sidered are the effects upon lumber
production of speculation in stand
ing timber and the carrying charges
on private stumpage; the extension
of markets including the develop
ment of the foreign market for lum-
ber and other forest products and the
marketing of material in new forms;
and the competition of lumber pro-
duced in other countries and of 9TH
er materials used for the same 2ur-
poses
Attention also will be given, in the
interests of consumers and manufact-
urers, to the questions of the dis
tance between the producer and the
consumer, and the distributing agen-
cies which absorb considerable part
of the retail price.
The INJURY has to do not only
with the thrifty use of the present
timber supply. but also with the pos
sibility of applying forestry in the
future management of private timber
lands.

one OF the objects OF these studies
is to lessen this total waste which, il
allowed to continue, will be felt
sooner or later. Because of these
and other existing conditions in the
timber and numbering districts, the
Secretaries of both Departments feel
that there is need to devise better
ments in the interest alike of the
forest-using industries and the con-
suming public.
The more important elements in
the projecs of the two Departments
are as follows:
The studies will seek to establish
the essential facts relating to supply,
exploitation and marketing of timber
at home and abroad. and to analyze
the underlying causes of present un-
satisfactory conditions. The aim
will be to deal helofully with the
various problems presented, and to
indicate as far as it may be prectic-
able, measures which should be
adopted by the industry itself. or by
the public in relation to the indus

STUDY OF SUPPLY AND
EXPLOITATION OF TIMBER
IN THE UNITED STATES

Washington, d. c., July 16.-The
Secretary of Commerce and the Sec
rotary of Agriculture have completed
plans whereby their two Departments Is
will combine in a constructive study
of the supply and exploitation of tim
her in the United States, which has
now become one of the big conserva-
tion and Industrial problems. The
study is to be undertaken in the be-
lief that the methods used in ex-
plotting timber resources and the res
toration of normal and healthy con-
ditions in the industries which con-
vert timber into usable products,
vitality concern the public at large.
One of the conditions which, in
the opinion of the Secretaries, makes
this study of immediate Importance.
is the fact that the United States
which contains some 5000 billion
feet of standing timber, is now re-
ducfng its stumpagc at the rate of
sixty or more billion feet annually.
In spite of this limited timber sup
ply, lumbermen are now unable to
market much of the poorer grades.
They therefore leave in the woods or
burn in their mills from one-third to
one-half of the material in the trees.
Poor varieties of timber often are not
cut at all, but are left to be burned
in the slash fires which usually fol-
low logging. Some of this waste 1t
is believed is 2reventable, and much
more, 1t is hoped, can be saved un-
der improved conditions of market
ing and use of wood.

NEGRO OPENS FIRE
 ON SPECIAL AGENT
HIGINBOTHAM, OF COTTON BELT, ROUNDS UP BOX CAR GANG
 AT STUTTGART.
Four Shots Are Fired at Him from Close Range-He Wings
 His Assailant.

Breaking up gang of alleged box car robbers, said to have been operat- ing at Stuttgart for the past six or eight months, came near proving ser ious to Special Agent wv. D. Higin- botham of the Cotton Belt, when on Sunday, with Special Agent E., R. Bernard, of the same road, he went to that place for them.
 Will Riglary, cook at the Frisco ho- tel, and held to be one of the gang, shot at Officer Higinbotham at close range four times, the bullets nar- rowly missing him. According to the officer the first two shots blinded him, as it was dusk, and it was not until there had been four shots dis charged by the negro that he was able to see sufficiently to bring his own revolver into play. He fired twice, inflicting each time flesh wounds, so it is reported. Riglary made his escape, but it is said, was seen around the vicinity of Stuttgart today.
 Hoodey Johnson, another of the al- leged robebrs, was arrested on charges of carrying a pistol and grand larceny. He was held to the grand jury on the larceny charge and was fined $50 on the charge of pistol carrying. It is said he was also arm ed with razor.
 That the robbery has been going on systematically for months and that large quantity of goods has been taken, is the belief of officers. It is claimed that Johnson had on wearing apparel stolen six months ago which indicates the depredations have been in progress some time.

 The band carried with the company consists of eight people and give a splendid concert in front of the the atre from 7:45 until S:15. This alone is one of the best parts to the attrac- tiOn.
 When the curtain rose tonight the company had their own scenery for the first act and the audience forgot that they had only paid the price Of 30 cents to witness the attraction that was staged and well worth the ad- vanced prices. =
 The bill tomorrow night will be one that has never been seen in this city at either popular or advanced prices and when the real name of the attraction is known the theatre going people will wonder where this com pany secured the play.
