wheat as usual He can't pay more
than the government price, but must
be responsible for weights and grades
and these weights and grades will be
governed by the state rules at tide
water points, and apparently they will
grade closely. After the grain buyer
buys his wheat and orders IL out for
shipment, whenever It Is ready for
shipment he will report to the gov
ernment agent, Er. Houser, and Mr..
Houser viii tell him where to ship 1t.
If the mills are loaded up so they
can't take the wheat and they ere
not allowed to carry more than thirty
days stock at time, then Houser
will order the wheat held until he Is
ready to have it shipped and from
that time on the government will pay
the interest and carrying charges.
Another matter that was brought
out very clearly was the fact that In
districts where there is fall wheat
which is fully matured and suitable
for seed, the government is not going
to interfere in the farmer getting q
premium over the price for ordinary
grades. There is distinct shortage
Of seed wheat ih some districts and
there will be very heavy demand
apparently in the next six weeks for
i seed wheat. Wheat sold for seed, as
near as we could learn, would have
to be sold by the farmer without its
| getting into the warehouse. Once In
the warehouse 1t is subject to govern
ment control and government price.
Mr.. Houser states that 1t was his
opinion that a private warehouse
used only by one farmer for storing
his own wheat, even though he took
in no wheat at all from others, would
be classed as a public warehouse. He
also stated that they were not ready
to buy wheat yet but would be soon
All prices are bulk and If the ware
. housemen can get suitable cars they
should ship their wheat in bulk, re
tanning their sacks.
J The government does not agree tC
, furnish cars. After the wheat is helC
thirty days the warehouseman viii
J have to report to Houser and he viii
arrange for shipment If cars are
available. If Houscr does not wan
J wheat shipped then the government
from that date will pay the interest
{ The thirty-day clause, Houser ad
] vises, starts on September 1.
E There is considerable friction de

they can grade wheat more liberall,

Hearty Applause rendered
Crangevile Cowboy Band

Cowboy vocal trio, composed of Hub
Wood and the two Harris boys, made
hit with q medley of choruses. In the
fiashlight photo taken at the banquet
the Cowboy band occupies the front
row of seats around the banquet board
showing that they were equally at
home when the big eats were announc-
ed.
Efforts were made both by the cow
boys and by the fair management to
secure a bucking horse but no such
animal could be found In or round
Spokane Joe Roberts, buckaroo with
the band, was on the job and offer
ed to take a ride out of any outlaw
horse that could be produced, but the
buckers failed to show. Next year the
boys say they will take up few out
law horses and prove to the doubling
folks, If any there are, that the Cow
boy Band is not bunch of pseudos-
copic masqueraders, but boys who can
"get by" at both emu of the game.
Grangeville sent a splendid band to
the Spokane fair and one pleasing fact
is that all the members, with one excep-
tion, were home boys and bona fide
residents of the town Rob Jordan,
trombone player. from Yakima, Wash
ington, went along with the boys to
take the place Of Chick Branscombe
who is now playing trombone with the
regimental band at Boise and who was
unable TO make the trip to Spokane
All the remaining members of the band
are boys who live here. Those who
made the trip were Joe Roberts, Ross
E'rizzell, Basil Harris, Earl Manning
Nelson, Casey Hutcnens. Hub Wood
Lester Rush, Norville Johnston, Roi
Jordan, Willard Rush, Harold Harris
Irwin Toye, Gay Eimers, Ed Abram
son and G. A. Tollefson.

SENATOR BRADY SEES Slim.
CHANCE TO INCREASE
WHEAT PRICE
reports on Northwest Wheat Marketing Confere With
Hauser Believes Prices Permanent; Federal
Government Not Interested.

Letters received yesterday would
indicate the prospect for securing a
higher price for the wheat crop of the
northwest is very unfavorable, United
States Senator James I'll. Brady, writ
ing from washington, expressing that
view, and corroboration of that opin-
ion is received from one Of the prom
lnent citizens Of the Inland Empire
who attended the conference with M.
III. Houser in Portland last week, says
Tuesdays Lewiston Tribune
Senator Brady writes as follows on
the matter:
Il have your telegram of the End,
in which you urge me to use all
means possible to have Portland, Ia
coam and Seattle made federal wheat
buying terminals and prices on wheat
fixed at these points, taking into con-
sideration ocean rates to Liverpool,
to the end that your growers may not
have to sell for S1.oO per bushel, or
basic price less soc freight to Chicago
Chicago.
Il fully agree with you that this
should be done. and have been work
ing night and day for three weeks to
see If / could not have it done, but up
to the present time we have been un-
able to convince the committee or the
president that concftions exist that
require them to make these points
bases for the purpose of buying
However, / am going to continue
along these lines and try in every way
possible to secure fair treatment, for
j the reason which IL is not receiving
under this rule.
THE great trouble is that these
men in the east cannot see across the
Rocky mountains, or even the Mis-
souri, river and it makes it very harC
indeed to secure wnat we ought tx
have, but nevertheless / am going tC
continue my efforts so that in4 ea.Ss
we do not get it for this year, we may
hope to have 1t for next"
The letter setting forth the results
Of the Portland conference and thu
conditions that with govern the mar
keting of the northwest crop is al
follows:
II attended the conference yester
day at Portland of the wheat grower
with Mr.. Houser. Nothing was ac
complished regarding getting a bette
price except to appoint a delegation
to 60 to Washington and interview tn
president, who alone has power t.
change the rules and regulations al
ready promulgated.
Personally. fell there is very lii
tie chance to get change in the rul
ing because the government is YER
loath to change rulings after they ar
made
Several things, however, of pal
ticular interest to the grain sectio
were brought out. One is that tn
government will control the graf
shipments absolutely. and that the
intend to hold in this country all tn
, wheat which the mills in this countr
, can grind before the next crop. Th

who would pay the interest charge

BUILD
HIGHWAY
NOW
Commissioner On Return to
Boise Gives Out impress
slons Formed.

Northern Idaho believes that the real
road construction issue of today, and Of
tomorrow for that matter, is the build
ing of the north and south highway.
That is the impression brought from
the north by w. A. Brodhead, chairman
of the state highway commission.
Furthermore he ADDS that it will be
built and to bring about as early a
completion as possible the highway
will be made narrower than was at first
planned. This will cut down the total
cost of construction and do much to-
ward solving the problem of building
this main artery that will connect the
northern part of the state with that of
the southern section. Chairman Brod-
head has just returned from a loop
trip through the north, says the Capital
News.
Long Trip Made.
Accompanying the commission chair
man was E. A. VanSicklin also a mem
ber of the board and State Highway
Engineer Booth. The latter remained
in the north. Mr.. VanSicklin stopped
at his home at Weiser and Mr.. Brod-
head came on to Boise. They will all
be here Monday for a meeting OF the
state highway commission when fur-
ther consideration OF the north and
south highway will re given.
The trip to the panhandle took the
commission two weeks. Mr.. Brodhead
left Mackay by auto and entered the
north via Butte an0 Bonner's Ferry.
He was joined by State Highway En-
gineer Booth and Mr.. VanSicklin there,
the latter having made the trip to the
north from Weisei. They visited
| Standpoint, Wallace Occur dAlene
Moscow, st. Maries, Lewiston, Grange
vile and at other places All along
this route they met the leading citi-
zens of cities, towns and counties

cussed at length.
