POTATOES MUST Be GRADED
Ii Idaho Growers Hope to Compete
They Will Have to Use Care.

That Idaho potatoes, if they are to
hold their own with spuds from other
sections OF the northwest, must be
carefully graded and all inferior stock
held back, was the statement of Will
liam Stewart, potato expert Of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, who was in Pocatello Thursday
and Friday in consultation with the
managers of the Southern Idaho Pro-
ducers' association. Mr.. Stewart laid
more stress upon this point than any
other, and to insure careful grading,
a representative of the association is
to be put In the field in the near fu-
ture to see that all spuds handled
through that body are up to standard.
Mr.. Stewart was here for the pur-
pose of getting information for his
department and he came here from
Twin Falls and other sections Of Ida
ho which he has been checking up.
AS nearly as can be told at this time
the potato crop of Idaho is going to
to be much shorter than last year and
Mr.. Stewart stated that government
reports earlier in the season overesti-
mated the yield In support of his
statement the local association states
that the Idaho crop will be approxi-
mately 1000 cars less than that OF
last year.
Having completed his task in the
Northwest, Mr.. Stewart left yester-
day morning for Chicago,

The agricultural, horticultural and

great deal of care and while not large
were composed of some OF the best
products of the tract, garnered from
the many prosperous farms about
Kimberly In every way was the ex-
hibits a credit to the hustle and ener-
gy of the Kimberly Boosters.
About three hundred citizens from
Twin Falls spent some part OF either
day at Kimberly making the trip over
most atrocious roads IN order to show
their friendship for the business men
of Kimberly.

New York Concern Acts Under Special

New York By special ruling by
the comptroller of the currency at

National bank will open - branches
in New York city Monday. This
marks a radical departure from the
fixed attitude of the Federal banking
authorities, only one other national
financial institutiaon- the Bank OF
California previously having been
granted similar privilege.
The Chatham & Phoenix National
bank is a consolidation of two of the
oldest financial institutions Of this

The treasury authorities, it is ua-
derstood, believe that the new federal
reserve system maks such action ad-
visable. The officials are OF the opin-
ion that this valuable privilege ought
not to be withheld from national insti-
tutions, and that it is part of the
policy of the new reserve system to
foster this system of expansion where
such a privilege can reasonably be
granted Statesman.

STIRRED OVER DOG CASE
City MarshaI's Aim is Poor. City
Sued for Damage.

The killing of pet dog by the mar
shall is the bone of contention this
week. 1t seems that the marshal shot
at a white dog owned by r. A. Rey-
nolds instead. He killed the right one
finally and burned them both. When
Mr.. Reynolds missed his dog he made
inquiries of the marshal who inform
ed him he knew nothing of his dog.
Later Mr.. Reynolds found where the
two dogs had been burned and among
the ashes found his dogs tag. When
confronted with this evidence the mar
shall confessed that he had killed the
dog accidentally. Mr. Reynolds has
filed complaint in the county court
and the matter will be threshed out in
that court tomorrow at Twin Falls.
The city dads also got busy on the
case and tried to fix the matter up in
some way but was not successful.
They have engaged council and will
fight the case for the marshal. A
large crowd attended the informal
hearing Tuesday when the matter
went over as above stated Filler

OPPOSE GOVERNMENT CONTROL
Water Power Conference to Protest
Against Ferris Bill.

Portland, Ore. That the Ferris
bill, passed by the lower house OF
congress and scheduled for presenta-
ton in the senate at the next session,
will be the storm center at the west
ern states water power conference to
be held here for three days beginning
next Thursday, was strongly indicated
Sunday as arriving delegates voiced
their views regarding topics likely to
be discussed. Several declared that
opposition would be found general
among representatives of western
states to federal control of water
power as provided in the Ferris bill.
and that strong effort would be
made to place the conference on rec
ord with memorial to congress ask
ing that the disposal of its own water
power be left to each state for de-
termination.
Administration View.
Opposed to this view were the
opinions of Clay Tallman, representa-
tive of Secretary of the Interior Lane !;
Henry S. Graves, chief forester, and
other representatives OF the govern
ment who will appear before the con-
ference. 1t was the view of all OF
these that while congress would
doubtless heaken to suggestions from
the conference for amendment of the
Ferris BILL sentiment therein would
be found overwhelmingly against state
control
Among the delegates already on the
ground the states of Oregon, Wash
ington, Idaho, Colorado and Utah
were represented Sunday night. Rep.
resentatives of several extensive
power companies operating IN west
ern states also were here to attene

Land Board and Utah ConStruC-
tion Go. Getting together.
HAVE PRACTICALLY AGREED ON
ALL TERMS OF CONTRACT
Company is Requested TO Submit
New Contract Satisfactory to All
interests.

AS the result of an informal dis
cussion on Monday between the mem
bers of the state land board and Ed
win Snow, representing the Utah Con-
struction company, it now seems
probable that an arrangement may be
perfected for the rebuilding of the
Big Lost river irrigation works. Ger
tain notifications in the proposed
contract were talked over and should
the basis reached prove acceptable to
the construction company, it is be-
| lieved that a contract between the
state and the company, satisfactory
! to all concerned will be entered into.
! Mr.. Snow represented to the board
his belief that the Utah Construction
company would agree to construct the
works strictly according to plans and
specifications acceptable to the state
engineer; that it would furnish the
water from the system only to the
lands upon which the water rights had
already been sold by the Big Lost
River Land & Irrigation company, un-
til it was demonstrated that the water
supply was ample for additional lands.
A proportionate interest in the ir-
rigation works would be conveyed to
each settler under the old project,
/
all the available water up to two acre
feet per acre. No increase in price
of water rights over $40 per acre, the
amount charged by the Big Lost River
company, will be asked The settlers
will be given credit on the new water
rights for every dollars of money they
Ishave paid in under the old contracts.
Mr.. Snow further stated that the
company would be willing to agree
bthat no payments on water contracts
should be collected until it was dem
onstrated that the reservoir would
. hold water at least to the extent of
one acre foot Of actual storage water
for every acre of land for which
water rights had been sold to set
i tiers, ana it was believed that the
reservoir would hold much omre. This
amount of storage water, with the
(, large natural flow of the river, it was
thought, would furnish an ample
, supply Of water.
The state land board tentatively
, agreed to the proposition and re-
, quested the company to submit q con-
+ tract embodying the foregoing pre-
! visions for early action by the board.
Over a year ago the Utah Construc-
! tion company bid in the works of the
Big Lost River Land & Irritation
: |company at the sale ordered by the
federal court to satisfy the lien of
: Corey Brothers Construction COM
: pany, amounting to, upwards Of half
), million dollars. This was accom-
plished after litigation lasting nearly
three years.
In the meantime it appeared as Il
the project was destined to be = total
failure. The settlers were on the land
