SOUTHERN IDAHO MAY
LOSE. BIG FRUIT CROP
CAR SHORTAGE PRESENTS GRAVE
DIFFICULTIES, ACCORDING TO
DEAN Il. j. IDDINGS

Difficulties presented by a large
fruit crop that happens to be con.
temporaneous with an unusual short

problem with which southern Idaho is
wrestling at the present time accord
ing to Dean E. j. Iddings of the uni
versity college of agriculture, who
has just returned from a stay of al
most week spent in Caldwell
South Idaho fruit growers could
use 5000 cars for apples alone" said
Dean Iddings today, "and it is possi-
BILE for the farmers to obtain only a
mere handful. The situation is more
than grave"
The dean stated that the farmers
celebration held in Caldwell was an
unqualified success, saying that re-
markably good crowds we're drawn to
both afternoon and evening gather
ings. Senator Borah and s. S. Nc
Clure, famous publisher, were among
the speakers of the week.
Substantial progress is being made
in the south in the direction of prop
erly aliging the people with the ma
tional administration, according to the
dean. Seven new workers have been
added to the state home economics
staff and in the near future, 80 of
Idaho's counties will nave been fully

ing food conservation work. George
L. Morrison is a recent appointee as
assistant leader of county agents.

class of 1910, who has re-
,ently been made director of the work

Good Blood In Livestock Will Pay
Since the opening of good markets
for livestock of all kinds at the Moul-
trie, Ca, and Jacksonville, Fla,
packing houses, farmers are begin
ming to learn from experience the
lesson that good blood in livestock
brings the greatest financial returns.
No matter how much information is
offered farmers through the various
educational agencies, bulletins and
farm papers, there is nothing that
brings this subject home to some
farmers as quickly as touch
through the pocketbook nerve.
For years packers have paid bet
ter prices for cattle and hogs that
show evidence of breeding for beet
and pork production, and that are
uniform IN size, quality and condft-
ion. Packers viii continue to make
these differences in prices because
they know by experience it pays them
bettr to slct animals that will pro-
duce the highest percentage of high
priced meats when slaughtered.

Hence an early blowing to complete
