CROPS GREAT IN
WEISER VALLEY
F. C. McGOwan Returns From Weiser
And Tells of the Abundant Crops Of
That Locality - Idaho Combines
There

There has been more wheat sown
in the country surrounding the Weiser
section in south Idaho than ever be-
FORE" said F. c. MCGOWAN who re-
turned last night from a trip in the
interest of the Idaho National Har-
vester company to Washington county.
.NThe ranchers there are in the midst
of harvesting and it is generally con-
eeded that they will get the largest
yield per acre in the history of that
section. Corn is a crop that is also
grown abundantly, the dry farming
method being generally followed in
the sowing of grains, whereas the
fruit products of that section are un-
der irrigation projects"
The harvester company recently in
stalled three Little Idaho" machines
in that section for the Crane Creek
irrigation project and they are proving
considerable of a success to the op
orators. Mr.. MCGOWAN states there is
much interest in the Weiser section
over the possibility Of the building
of the proposed North and South rail-
road.

ALIVE
MYSTERY SOLVED
ANXIETY CAUSED A SUSPICION
THAT HE MIGHT HAVE BEEN
FOULLY DEALT WITH
Was Seen This Morning With Roll OF
Blankets on His Shoulder at
Spring Valley Depot

That Halvor Erickson, who myster-
iously disappeared several weeks ago
from the Ole Swanson farm where he
had been working, is not dead, was
established beyond any doubt today
and any anxiety on the part of his
friends may now be set at complete
rest
Erickson was seen this morning at
Spring Valley depot by w. P. Laws,
an insurance agent, who arrived in
Moscow on the morning Inland train.
Erickson, who is we'll known to Laws,
had a bundle of blankets thrown
across his shoulders and was seen to
board the Colfax bound passenger
train and is now probably between
Rosalia and Colfax looking for work
in the harvest fields.
When Erickson mysteriously disap-
peared from the Swanson place $50 in
money was also missing. Erickson
did not wait for S27 in salary due him
from Swanson. Erickson was suspect
ed of taking the $50, but his friends
insist he was thoroughly upright and
honest Why he didn't get his salary
when he left is another mystery.
Erickson is known to have a consider
able sum of money laid aside.
The sheriff's office had been enlist
ed by friends of Erickson to locate
him. 1t was feared for a time that he
had either been murdered or had COM
mitted suicide. Sheriff Campbell will
endeavor to locate him today and learn
the cause of his abrupt departure.

HOW TO PREVENT
FOREST FIRES
Public's Cooperation Sought to Stop
Blazes Which Are Causing Big
Losses in the East - Rules Laid
Down

To obtain the cooperation of the
public in preventing forest fires which
are doing a great deal of damage in
the East this spring, the depart
ment has prepared 10 "Don'ts" to be
observed in the woods. 1t is hoped
that these rules may have beneficial
effect during the fire season of the
southern ~Appalachians, which is not
yet over, and that of the north woods,
which is just beginning and which,
from present indications, promises to
be unusually severe. The same rules
apply to the Northwest timbered area
The "Donts" follow:
1. Don't throw your match away
until you are sure it Is out.
2. Don't drop cigarette or cigar
butts until the glow is extinguished.
8. Don't knock out your pipe ashes

IDAHO PANHANDLE
Be The SUFFERER
BOARD FIRE INSURANCE COMPA-
MES INSIST ON THREE E-FOURTHS
VALUE CLAUSE
Have so Advised State Insurance Com.
missiOner-Passed up to Attorney
General for an Opinion

| Though a determined effort has
rogation of the three-fourth value
clause on insurance carried by board
companies in the panhandle of Ida
ho and some concessions were made
on certain classes Of property, accord
ing to word received in Moscow, the
companies operating under jurisdic-
tion of the Pacific board Of underwrit-
ers have written to State Insurance
Commissioner George F. Steele that
they have decided to put into force
and effect completely, the three
fourths clause on policies. This
means, briefly, that hereafter and
until different action is taken, board
companies operating in the northern
part of the state will not place fire
insurance on property of any kind at
more than three -fourths of it's value
1t is said this brings about situa-
tion that may become serious. Com
missioner Steele has taken the matter
up with the attorney general to de-
termine whether or not these board
companies or any insurance company
for that matter can discriminate in the
writing of policies in Idaho. If it is
found they cannot, the insurance de-
partment may insist that the COM
panies cease putting into effect the
"three-quarter" clause.
1t is understood the fire insurance
companies offer the excuse for tn
discrimination owing to numerous
fires in the northern part of the
state. BY writing ''three-quarter'
policies it is claimed that serious
handicap will be placed on some of
the larger lumber companies which
are forced to loan up to the full value
of their plants to tide them over the
logging season but which would be
unable to secure such loans if under
written on insurance policies or their
policies only insure for three-quarters
Of the total value.

sidering Applications


BOISE, July 22-(Special.) AT his

BELATED CLAIMS

State Board of Examiners Make New
Rules Requiring Vouchers to be
Filled Out on Outside and Must be

BOISE, July 22-(Special)-A for
mer rule of the state board of exam
iners was re-enacted at its last ses-
sion when an order was spread on the
minute books to the effect that here
after rule No. l of the board will be
strictly enforced.
The rule is as follows:
"All claims submitted in any one
month must be filed in the office of
the state auditor not later than the
Saturday preceding the third Tuesday
of such month";
Heretofore the rule had not been

file later than the rule called for, and
then used their influence to get the
claims passed upon.
Ignore Petty Claims
Another rule laid down by the
board was that it will not pass here
after on any claim calling for less
than 81. 1t prescribed that when
anyone has so small a bill against
the state he must either wait until it
reaches 81, or present the claim to
the auditor, who will make payment
and include the item with his other
vouchers.
The board will also demand that the
outside of the voucher be filled in with

More Systematic

"The new plan will be much more
systematic than the present one 81
said Mr. Day. 1T will save untold
duplication, if not more prompt, serv-
ice to the applicant.
I'VE will give considerable pub
licity to the schedule of the time for
granting loans to each district. The
farmer who wants a loan will thus be
enabled to know at what time the
state land board will act on his ap
plication.
Less Expensive
Every 60 days each district will
receive attention. The appraisers
will visit it and act on every appli
cation for a loan which has been re-
ceived from that district. The ex-
pense of appraisement will be ma
terially cut, and with this system in
effect / believe it will be possible to
see opportunities for and put into ef-
feet still further. economies
Mr.. Day said he was considering
several other changes in the ad
methods of the office,
but that they would be approved by
the board before being put into eff
feet.
