Just returned from Lewiston where
he spent last week, attending the
great livestock show and the Evergreen
Highway convention. Mr.. Ross is
highly enthusiastic over the certainty
Of the north and south road, and is
impressed that it will prove one of
the greatest accomplishments of the
state in its entire history.
In commenting today upon the Ever
green Highway convention and its inn
port to the state, Mr.. Ross said: 1t
was great convention, and in my
opinion its deliberations are fraught
with vast significance TO the entire
state. Through the plans formulated,
the proposed Evergreen highway Will
be constructed, and this means the
contamination of our long cherished
hope for Il north and south road, for
sue ha road will constitute part Of
tho highway, and will form the needed
such road will constitute part OF
the state and the northern part. In
fact, ! firmly believe that within IS
months the north and south road which
has been advocated so long will have
been completed. The day which wit

Leading business men of the cities

In their support of the proposed high

Will the money which will come to our
own state in this way be any small
sum. A more highly scenic section
than north Idaho can scarcely be found.
Its lake region is very picturesque and
with its many beautiful forests con
stitutes a region which will vet be
ono of the great Fairgrounds of the
west. Nature has done more for few
other states than she has done for our
own. The progress of our state has
been very rapid. 1t will continue to

roads will prove one OF the greatest
factors in it's future development and
growth"
Mr.. Ross was elected perma

ono to raise. and that the hay alone
will pay the cost of production. leav-
ing the peanuts as clear profit. The
industrial congress estimates the yield
at from twenty to forty bushels per
acre, and says that by good seed selec-
ton sixty bushels can be produced
with a small additional cost. The aver
age yield in east Texas last year was
forty-two bushels. This means a re-
turn in peanuts and hay of SAB per
acre.
These figures show big profit. They
show that the peanut era has come to
stay. and that the crop will eventually
be raised side by side with cotton in
every one of the sixteen southern
states.
One Of the most important things
connected with peanuts is that they
can be grown upon millions of acres
that are now going to waste. They are
especially fitted for the thin sandy cut
over forest lands of the south. These
lands are cheap and they can be clear
ed and planted at small expense. The
extent of the crop is limited only by
the supply of labor and seed. This is

I continue the story as Mr.. Cage told
it to me. Said he:

anyway. My idea of the peanut crop
came from the few nuts I had seen on
the italian fruit stands. and / thought
might perhaps, get a hundred bushels
or so. which / could easily sell again.
So, went back to Houston, leaving the
offer open. The next day I got tele
phone from the manager of my mill as
to what he was to do with the peanuts.
How many have YOU? l asked. There
are fifty wagonloads that came in to-
day., he replied. and thereNl be twice
that tomorrow. Well. we GOT zoo tons
of peanuts that week and they kept
coming. We got so many that did not
know what to do with them. l sold
some in Texas, and. finally, shipped the
rest to the north.
In handling the nuts they were now
