STATE ENGINEER HERE.

State Highway Engineer Eugene
Booth was in the city for a short time
Friday, coming up the Salmon river on
his way to Lewiston in the Haines car
the state has provided for Mr.. Booth.
He stated the roads were very bad in
spots along the river and at his instance
the county dads have sent crew. of
men down on the river to do such work
as will make them passable and not at
too great a cost as temporary repairs
are advisable at this time. Mr. Booth
states contracts have already been let
for some of the work on the North and
South road, from Weiser for some dis.
lance as we recall his remarks and q
contract will be let for the work as far
north as New Meadows shortly. 1t is
intended to get things in shape for the
advertising of bids on the work up the
river to Grangeville and as the winters
are mild on the river no doubt the party
securing the contract on this end of the
line will keep on the job all winter.

TELLS OF NoN-PARTIsAN LEAGUE
Regular Speaker Not Present and
Organizer Explains.

The meeting held last Saturday under
the auspices of the Idaho Non-Partisan
League at the local Odd Fellows hall
was not very well attended, probably
due to the limited amount of advertis-
ing the same had as well as the un-
familiarity of the people with the OBJ
jects Of the league. The regular speak.
era Mr.. McKaig, who is said to be a
man who handles his subject well, could
not be present on account of not being
able 10 make train connections and his
place was taken by j. H. Taylor a
bright young man who is assisting i'll the
organization work in this section. The
writer did not hear all of the speakers
remarks but judging from what he did
hear that the object of the league is to
place the state government more in the
hands of the farmers than is now the
case. 1t seems there are some sort of
socialistic tendencies cropping out in the
statement of principles but it does not
necessarily follow they are wrong for
as a matter of fact some of the socialist
doctrine has been adopted in times past
by the people and found very satisfac-
tory in government. The league for
which the young man spoke has secured
control of the state government of
North Dakota and while great claims
are made as to the accruing benefit it
must be remembered that the party is
young and may not be any more success
full as it grows older and larger than
those it wishes to supplant. The cost of
government is generally admitted as be-
ing rather too high in this good, old U.
s. A., but it is an opinion generally con
Cured in that of late years that graft
and extravaganza has been wonderfully
reduced and the voter generally has
been voting for men and not taking his
politics straight as was formerly the
case, obviating any seriousness that
might require the organization of any
third party.
Some members were added to the Idaho
county list at the meeting Saturday and
Mr.. Taylor informs us that the entire
county will be canvassed in the next
several weeks after which big rally
will be held at Grangeville and Mr..
McKaig and other speakers prominent
in the work will be here. McKaig it is
said is an excellent speaker and well
versed in his subject, appearing at Cot
tonwood several weeks ago at the farm
ers' picnic he impressed his audience
as being man sincerely Interested in
his subject and thoroughly familiar with
the same. Mr.. Taylor states they have
been meeting with pleasing results in
the section of the county already visited
and is confident Idaho county will have
league with large membership.

ASSESSOR REPORTS AGRICUL-
TURAL DATA 1857.
Continued on page 2.

kOontlnueu on PdSc 81
much hay was expected for this year as
last year. The total hay cut in Idaho
County last year was 39,053 tons and
the total amount expected for 1917, 49,
O4s tons. These figures include all
crops cut for hay, alfalfa, clover, tim
othy, barley, wheat, oats and natural
meadow. The figures on timothy which
is the backbone of our hay crop bear
about the same relation as those just
given. Last year there were IL 1854 tons
of timothy hay cut in Idaho county and
ll,0l8 tons expected this year. This
estimate may be all off in the same way
as the Others but it shows that sub
stantially the same land is devoted to
hay crops this year as was used for that
purpose last year. OF course reports are
constantly coming into US to the effect
that timothy hay does not make more
than half the tonnage usually obtained.
On the other hand we have been re-
peatedly informed that alfalfa crops are
the best ever known on the prairie and
that clover is up to standard.
The report includes also some data on
apple and prune trees. 1t seems that
there are fewer of each of these in the
county this year than last and fewer of
them bearing. Last year there were
2S,0S7 apple trees bearing and 1914 not
bearing; this year 26,535 bearing and
GAO not bearing. Of prune trees there
were 3,493 bearing and 673 not bearing
last year and 3443 bearing and 536 not
bearing this year.
The figures on livestock are reliable.
They show a slight increase in beef and
dairy cattle, large decrease in hogs
and considerable increase in sheep.
There are about hundred fewer horses
in the county this year than Last. Last
year there were 4,216 head of beef eat
tie and this year 1885. Dairy cattle
last year numbered 2786, this year 2907.
The number of hogs went down from
28,137 last year to 18,947 this year. OF
sheep there were 6767 head last year and
1917 this year.
The report includes other figures on
pasturage, grass seed and sales of
various products but they are less signi-
ficant than those quoted.
