STATE BOARD
HELD MEETING
EVAN EVANS OF GRANGEVILLE,
ONE OF THE MEMBERS, IN MOS
cow ON HIS WAY HOME
Budget for Educational Institutions
Was Completed at the Session
Just Held

| The state board of education has
just closed an interesting session at
Boise at which time the matter of fix
ling the budget for the various state
educational institutions were taken up
for presentation to the governor. Other
detail matters were disposed of and
the board adjourned. Evan Evans of
Grangeville a member of the board,
was an arrival in Moscow last night
from Boise to confer with President
Brannon and left for home today.
I'm keeping with the general policy
of the board we have been careful in
working out the budget with view
of maintaining the necessary standing
of the institutions consistant with econ
omy and efficiency" said Mr.. Evans.
1--WE are opposed to any extravaganza
in the spending of public funds but
it is the purpose of the board to ask
for only the sums which to us seem
necessary.
"While in Boise we conferred with
Governor elect Alexander relative to
educational matters in general and we
believe we have a full conception of
his desires as chief executive with
relation to the educational system of
the state. Our conference with him
seemed very satisfactory, and we have
no fear but what the new governor will
be entirely Conscientious in his attitude
toward such educational institutions"
Mr. Evans stated this morning that
he would not be in Boise until probably
some time in January. While here he
took up number of matters of routine
with president Brannon
Of the university.

ment Quits Buying Horses

In my opinion, cattle and hogs
will see their highest values in years
with the opening of spring." said
I William T. Platt, the well-known
stockman, who was in Moscow today
on business. THE present high price
Of feed is forcing stockmen to sell off
their cattle and hogs and as re-
suit the markets will be pretty well
cleared by spring, when, it is the gen.
! eral view among stockmen, the scarcity
of stock together with the European
demand, will send prices skyward
Cattle is good investment and those
who are in the business will reap
the rewards. Mich cows will also be
in great demand, If the present war
lasts. There won't be a milch COW
left in Germany within another year
and 1t will be up to the United States
to supply the demand"
Mr. Platt is q member of the firm
