A. j. SHRECK
Ten Years on the Tract and Has

Combine to Govern Seed Growth

Ten Years on the Tract and Has
Won Climate and Soil
Combine to Govern Seed Growth.
A. J. Shreck has been ten years
on the tract and has been thru the
experience of being broke and in
debt, and having to make the farm
pay out or fail, and he made 1t pay.
Mrs. Shrek engineered poultry and
helped in the task and they both
know what it Is to pioneer on an
irrigated tract.
When Mr.. Shreck was asked Off
hand to enumerate some of the
principal resources Of the tract he
said that the climate, the long sunny
days of perfect weather for plant
growth, the irrigation system supply
ing warm water in the warm soil on
the cloudless days, the experimental
farm to guide in management, the
seed business enabling a man to sell
pure seed at fabulous prices, and the
climatic conditions and irrigation
system enabling him to govern the
seed growth. Dry farming he con-
siders still in the experimental stage.

absolute cinch should raise gold
the measure of values. Farmers who
are studying seeds and how to raise
them and keep them pure are work
ing in the right direction for max
ing money and for building up their
soils. ...
DRY farming is still in the ex-
perimental stage. A man on 800
acres of dry land should have four
horses, a gang pillow and harrow
and disc, and by blowing his land
every three years and following
close culture with the other nipple
ments the rest of the time, can raise
from IL to 20 bushels of wheat
There may be other crops that could
be raised that would be more profit
able, am not prepared to say Dry
farmers have been working for
wages for others a great deal, and
their struggle for success has been
rocky road.
The farmers on the irrigated
tracts have had almost as hard a
time. The first ones that came were
not all farmers, and few of them
came from an irrigated country.
They tried to farm by the rain-belt
formulas and a good many of them
failed and left. Then came the ex-
perimental station to teach and
guide them in their efforts. Times
were naturally better as the canal
became systematized in it's opera
tions, the railroad brought advant-
ages of transportation and markets
were established.
1--WE have in the Aberdeen coun-
try about 1900 acres of sugar beets
this year and regard the sugar in
dustry as a very promising one, yet
If the early settlers had tried rails
ing them, they would have failed be-
cause the new land does not produce
beets we'll until it has been kept
in some form of clover for period.
The early settlers worked for wages
on the canal to get money, and they
received good wages. But wages
have been going up since they got
to farming more Independently. A
man and team commands about
$3.50 a day now, and in former
years they worked for less.

E. NASH
From Sagebrush Desert i'm 1906 to
Land Worth $3.50 an Acre in 1917

From Sagebrush Desert i'm 1906 to
Land Worth $3.50 an Acre in 1917
E. Nash came to the Aberdeen
tract in 1906 and began clearing off
sage and breaking ground with a
small outfit. He improved and sold
farm south of Aberdeen and
promptly bought another one near
by. He is improving it and has list
ed it for sale and is half afraid
somebody will buy it and he will
have to move again. When asked if
he would buy again near Aberdeen
he responded promptly that he
would. When seen in July he had
his place listed at 5000 an acre with
the crops. or at $3.50 an acre and
he would keep the crops.
When asked what are the worst
objections to the Aberdeen country
as place to live he replied that
the cold windy weather in spring
annoyed him the most. He came
from a warm country and when
spring opens he likes to see spring
weather right along, but in the
Snake river valley it is changeable
due to the great bodies of snow on
the distant mountains, and there are
warm days followed by cold windy
ones till some time in late spring
when the weather gets down to bust
ness and spreads out more acres of
bright hot weather than crops and
plants know what to do with, and
they make an astonishing growth.

the greatest. If they had not pos
sessed unusual hardihood of char
acter they would have become dis
couraged and quit. Evidence of
their sterling worth is seen in many
ways, but it is most apparent in the
fine public school buildings, the
churches, the chautauquas and high
class lectures and other entertain
ments, and in the splendid citizen
ship evidenced by the rising genera
ton that are always busy, always
acting the clean and noble part and
never by their conduct bringing a
blush to the community. Aberdeen
is town without rowdism and
have always been frowned down and
kept out by high moral influence.
The very atmosphere Of the town
and country is an inspiration as one
enters it, and that is the greatest
asset that can fall to any commun-
ity.
The experiment farm is a haven
of protection to the new conner on
farm, for it is always ready to ad-
wise him in the ways Of success and
security. He farmed the first year
of his residence here and knows the
value of it's service. Mr.. Pratt is
still operating a farm a mile east OF
the experiment station, but feels
that his greatest field of service Is
in the management of it's commercial
activities.

J. G. Colborn, vulcanizer, Is one
Of the young men Of Aberdeen, who
has had rather different experience
from most men. He came from Ne
braska and undertook farming under
irrigation. The land was not prop
erly graded, the expense Of handling
was high, the yield was not good,
and he came to the conclusion that
the profits of farming in the Aber-
deem country were a myth, so he
quit the farm and went into other
lines of work with the result that
he is now convinced that when he
quit the farm he had just had about
enough experience to begin to get
results worth while, and he could
have been improving upon 1t ever
since.

THE UNIVERSITY OF
IDAHO ANNOUNCEMENT
The University and the New AGA
demic Year

The University of Idaho will open
the new academic year fully organ
lied in every department and we'll
equipped to serve the young people
of the state.
With the organization of the new
school of mines and the school of
forestry, each under notable leader
ship, the university takes an import
ant step in advance. New buildings
are being constructed and others are
undergoing improvement and en-
largement.
The University is responsive to the
national crisis. It seeks at present.
to place itself on war basis. It
recognizes that the world conflict Is
a scientific" war, to be won by
those nations excelling in the use of
scientific knowledge and technical
skill. The university is thus a train
ing school for ambitious, capable
and patriotic men and women who
wish to serve the nation on the level
of modern efficiency.
The university recognizes, more
over. the equally great need of train
ed leadership in the period of recon-
struction which will follow the war.
It therefore seeks to adapt it's
courses to serve the supreme needs
Of peace, as we'll as those of war.
An Enduring State an Enduring
University
Those RESPONSIBLE for the admins
tration of the university have faith
In the future of Idaho and of the
university. They share the view of
a man of large affairs in the east
who recently declared that "Jdaho
Is destined to become one of the
richest and greatest of American
states" The University of Idaho, as
a creature of the state and neces-
sary organ of it's higher life, will
certainly share in the fortunes and
high destiny of the commonwealth.
So long as the states endures the
university will grow in strength and
serviceableness.
The university was born of the
hopes, the aspirations, the idealism
of the people of Idaho. 1t embodies
the resolute determination of
great forward-looking empire-build-
ing race of pioneers, that the best
knowledge and experience of man
kind should be wrought into the
lives of the youth of Idaho. Moth
ing but the best could be good
enough for their children In this
noble and intimate sense the univer-
sity belongs to the people of Idaho.
1t is the incarnation Of their best
selves.
Such is the ideal and the program
Of the university. 1t invites the
young people Of the state to share
in the opportunities and the tonic
life of the university.

President.

MOTOR TRUCKS ON THE FARM

The heavy tonnage to be moved
quickly from farm to loading station
this fall, both in beets and potatoes
and the shortage of team-power and
drivers, the loss of time doing the
hauling by the slow process when
the fall blowing ought to be in pro-
cess. make motor trucks or some
quick and effective means Of moving
crops highly desirable.
A study of the problems connected
with the use of any kind of motor
driven vehicles for hauling brings
out the following matters for consid-
Grafton:
No motor truck has yet been ex-
hibited that will make it's way thru
plowed or partly plowed field with
any sort of load on. The resistance
Of the front wheels in the soft
ground makes the drive wheels spin
and dig in. Therefore it becomes
necessary to use some other means
than motor trucks to get them off
of the field. A short haul with
wagons and then transferring to the
motor truck for a long haul might
uOL NO
Having a tractor and hitching sew
eral wagons behind it makes a saw
ing of horses and drivers, but 1t
would be necessary to go to some ex-
pense to arrange the hitching device
and considerable time would be lost
in transferring the wagon from the
team when it comes out of the field
to the tractor at the point where
the wagons reach the hard road. In
order to have the trailers folIow
around corners properly special de-
vice must be attached to each trail
| err, but the rear one. Each of these
plans take considerable time and
money, and for haul of only few
miles it is of doubtful utility.
In the wheat belts Of Oregon and
Washington where they have a long
haul, the tractor is used for hauling
the trailers, but the threshing Is not
done in freshly plowed field. 1t Is
possible to set the machine at favor
able locations regarding solid roads,
and then it is easy to dump the
wheat into hillside granary and
Immediately draw it out by gravity
INTO inc CTdll0FS 81 IL 10 uot AOSOo-
sary to unhitch.
Bingham county has small farms
and comparatively short hauls. The
beets and potatoes must be drawn
from freshly plowed tracts, and beets
especially, are not easily transferred
from one wagon to another. Prob
ably the only substantial advantage
in using motor trucks here would be
on some of the longer hauls, with
teams and wagons to transfer the
load by hand pitching where the
field Joins the hard road. The gain
would be in speed of the truck over
the speed of team. II there is
waiting to be done to get to the
scales and the beet dump, the truck
will not suffer from hunger and IA
tigue while waiting, and 1t will not
be consuming gasoline. The speed
of the truck returning empty would
be decided advantage over teams,
and the endurance Of the truck
working after the usual hours would
entail no loss as is the. case in work
ing horses over time when tired,
hungry and thirsty.
The problem of the motor truck
for Bingham county farm hauling Is
far from solved, and the problem Of
doing it with horses grows more and
more acute as tonnage increases and
horses become higher and harder to
find. aas
