CAUSES OF PRESENT PROSPERITY

The Democratic party would like
very much to make it appear that the
Wilson administration is responsible
for present business conditions. The
reports of the federal government to-
tally disprove such a claim. The enor-
nous crops of last year added approx
imately $500,000,000 more to the ma
tional wealth and circulation than did
the crops of 1914. That, in itself, was
enough to make vast difference in
relative prosperity. Neither Mr.. Will
son, nor Mr.. Wilson's policies, in
iluenced agricultural production al
though the Democrats are disposed to
take credit for it. But figures just
published by the department of com
merce prove beyond all question that
it is the war trade and the war trade
alone that has expanded our foreign
commerce far beyond all previous
records and has made the country rich.
er by many hundreds of millions.
In this report the exports and i'm
ports of 1913, 1914 and 1915 are pre-
scented by countries The total ex-
ports in 1913 were $2,4S4, O00,000; in
1914, $3,547 100000, an increase of 81,
| 063, 100000. All of this increase, and
| more, is shown by the report to be due
to the sale of war munitions and sup
plies. Our exports to England were
increased by $577 100000, to France
by $340,000,O0o, to Italy by $4,000,
600, to Russia by $l39, 100000, max
ing a total increase to the allied coun
tries of $1,24S, 100000. To the coun
tries bordering upon the war zone
Holland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark
Greece and Switzerland - our exprti
increased $2lS,000,000, all of which is
due to abnormal demand growing out
of war. To suppose that our norma
| trade with these countries could be in
creased in the least under present con
ditions is manifestly absurd There
fore we have total gain in exports re
sulting from the war, of 81 ,466,00O,-
600, as compared with 1913. Against
this we have loss, consequent upon
the war, of $3S 100000 to Germany
and Belgium, making Il net gain from
this cause of $l,0S5, 100000. Our ex
ports to the rest of the world have dc
creased $22,O00,000.
Our imports in 1913 amounted to 4 !,
792 900, 900; in 1915 to $l,77S,000, 900
Our balance of trade, therefore, il
1918, was $l,769, 100000. Directly OF
indirectly the country is that mucl
richer; we have sold to foreign ma
tons that much more than we have
bought from them. The war brought
us in 1918 an average of over $l1 PEI
capita for the entire population of thu
United States. Eliminating the sale
to the allies and the border nations
our balance of trade in 1915 is seer
to be only $780,, 100000. Our balanc,
of trade in 1913 was 5000 100000. 81
it is apparent that, outside of wa
sales, we have lost almost 100000,
900.
1t is quite plain from these ollicia
figures that every dollar of our gail
from foreign commerce is due to tn
war demand, and that the war and tn
crops have given us n prosperity no
because of but in spite of the Demo
cratic administration.

UNIvERSITY's CHAMPION STEER.

In a showing of fat steers It the
Pacific International Livestock show
at Portland. Oregon. last month, said
by experienced stockmen to have been
the best ever seen In the west, the
University of Idaho Shorthorn steer.
~Benefactor. was made grand cham
pion over all breeds and ages. Bene-
factor had as competitors steers fit
ted by the agricultural colleges of Or
csoa and Washington ana a large herd
from the University Of California, the
latter including the grand champion
Of the Panama-Pacific show at San
Franchises. In addition to this high
award on the steer the University OF
Idaho was awarded n number Of pri-
xes In tho fat steer and fat wether
divisions Of the show.

pure bred shorthorn, calved December
IL, 1913. When sold at Portland at a
little less than two years of age, he
tipped the scales at 1920 pounds. His
sire was Gold Crown, a bull bred by
j. H. McCrosky and Sons of Fishtrap,
Washington, and used as a herd bull
for a year at the. University of Idaho.
The dam is May Daisy, a splendid
s%horthorn COW now in the University
herd. The steer has been carefully
developed since a calf and has been
grown and fattened almost entirely on
bran and oats produced in Idaho.
Eastern visitors to the Portland
show pronounced Benefactor one OF
the best Shorthorn steers seen in
America for years. He was sold at
public auction for So cents per pound,
bringing $532. He was purchased by
Walter j.. Hill, of Northcote, Mimi,
son of the railroad builder, who
bought the steer to show at Denver,
Colo, and Brandon, Winnipeg and
other Canadian winter live stock
shows. Benefactor will be carefully
handled by his new owner, will be
everywhere shown as the Idaho Uni
versity steer and will in all probable
ity reflect further credit upon the state
and institution that produced him.

ience.-At N. E. Church Friday
Night, Jany. IA.

Perhaps you know something about
a committees hard. work In arranging
all the details of a course. They rec
ommend each number to be especially
good on the strength of the bureau
recommendations. But do you know
the satisfaction that comes when the
attraction finally arrives and makes
good as did "Ye Olde Towne Quar-
%tette," last night in the opening Of
the P. e. o. Lecture course? II the
audience came with the expectation
OF hearing classical or operatical Sc
lections they were disappointed; you
would scarcely expect such music in
Y Olde Towne Quartette." The
quartette came to us as entertainers
and were entertainers. They are sim
ply what the name implies. The use
of the old time songs was a diversion
from the ordinary program and a
pleasing feature of the entertainment.

The annual meeting OF the board
Of trustees of the Idaho Anti-Saloon
league was held at Boise last week
and steps taken looking to the adop-
ton OF the constitutional amendment
that will be voted on at the coming

that only those be voted for who are
prohibitionists in principle.

ton to the presidency of the board,
and A. L. Freehafer was elected in his

distribution may result In bringing
more OF the stalk materials into thu
seeds. though the total yield Of dr.
matter is not effected materially
In another case ten inches we're used
annually, during the period OF foul
years. The average results were
practically the same as those in the
preceding section. When two equal
irrigations were used, the largest
yield OF grain was obtained; when
the lightest irrigation came first, the
next larges was obtained. Again
the question of the yield Of grain was
apparently one OF applying water at a
time when the material stored in the
stalks could be carried into the grain.
When the water was applied In three
equal irrigations or In two ~unequai
irrigations, the heavy one first. the
yields were smallest. In this section
the yield OF straw is the largest when
the yield OF grain is next to the small
est.
~ hhy Dt ODbtl Gu That WHtn ~
inches are applied in three irriga-
lions, the third irrigation is thrown
quite late in the season, toward Au-
gust, the time Of ripening. This
means that the third irrigation is us
ually after the time of active growth
a period when little or no water is
needed.
With is inches of water, which
even II divided into three irrigations,
result In comparatively large single
applications, the best return of grain
came when one-fourth OF the totaI
was applied In each OF the first two
frrigations; and the remaining half in
n third irrigation. The smallest Weld
OF grain came when the water was
applied I'm three equal irigations. II
Is somewhat difficult to interpret the
with 10 inches OF water since
under such conditions the plant has
perhaps more water than Il needs. II
Is noticeable. however. that the straw
remains practically constant under
the three methods OF distribution
the differences falling almost entire
ly upon the grain. This again con.
Trims the view that the main result of
varying the distribution of water
with wheat - TO make possible a mora
ready transfer of materials from the
roots and stalks to the heads.
