FARMERS PROTEST
TELEPHONE SERVICE
Claim Is Made That Poor Service
Has Resulted in Substantial Loss
to Farmers on Grain Sales

With view to demanding imr-
proved telephone service from the In
land Cooperative company several
farmers residing west of Pullman
propose calling a meeting Of farm
ers in the near future to take action
in the matter. Ono farmer stated
this week that the alleged poor serv-
ice had resulted in a dead loss of
5000 to him on his wheat sales, due
to his inability to get telephone con-
nection with the grain buyers when
the prices were higher than the quo
tation on the day he sold. Other
farmers, he states, have had the
same experience. The farmers state
that unless the rural service is i'm
proved a concerted call will be sent
to the Bell company to again enter
the field.
The Inland company has enjoyed a
monopoly Of the local telephone
business since they took over the
Bell business over year ago.

". S. c. AND IDAHO
CLASH TOMORROW
Washington State and Her old Rival
VIII Battle Before Old Grads
on Saturday

On Saturday, November 4, occurs
Washington States second confer
ence football game of the season,
when Diet2's eleven will meet the
team from the University of Idaho
on Rogers Field. Idaho has been
three times defeated this season,
while Washington has broken even
with one defeat at the hands of o.
A. c. and victory over the Uni
versity of Montana. Our old friend
Comparative Scores" comedies the
game to the Crimson and Gray by a
big score by one method of figuring
and by slim margin by another
Gonzaga beat Idaho 81 to G Mon
tana took Gonzaga into camp with a
score of 20 to o. and w. s. G. lust
took care of Montana to the tune OF
27 to 0. Therefore, theoretically,
Captain Bangs and his men should
win Saturday with a score of 62 toe.
Approaching is from a "Dobie" or
seur-grape viewpoint, we can easily
seq that the above dope is off, for
0. A. G. beat Idaho 26 to and won
from w. s. C. with score of Is to
10: deduction, with an even break
in luck we may win from Idaho by
about 23 points. If Dietz and his
team were like Dobie and couldn't
exist without some dark cloud threat
ening their very existence, we would
probable correct dope. However We
find that we have real red-blooded
as we'll as red-jerseyed eleven, and
consequently we point with pride to
the score" via the Montana route.

GRAIN MARKET DEMORALIZED

The inadequate shipping facilities,
due to the shortage of cars, resulted
in the decentralization Of the local
grain markets this week, oats being
the only cereal sought by the buyers
yesterday, and S1.60 being offered.
The Chicago market, after reaching
its peak early this week, dropped on
Wednesday, but recovered partially
yesterday. But for the shipping con-
dltions, which are said to be worse
than at any time during the last 10
years, red wheat would have brought
as high as $3.50 here early this
week. Nominal quotations on bar
ley yesterday were $3.50, and red
wheat, had there been a market,
would probably have brought better
than $1.40, with club and fortyfold
two and four cents higher, respect
lively.
