Winwood Reade's Dream.

Announcement that a man in Port
land, Ore, had invented synthetic
potatoes recalls the prediction of Win
wood Reade written in 1872 in his
book the "Martyrdom Of Man. He
said that three inventions, which
might not be long delayed, would
give to the world wonderful pros
perity that would Danish poverty for
ever. The first would be the diseov-
cry of a motive force which would
take the place of steam, with its cum
brous fuel of oil or coal. The second
would be the invention of aerial To-
comotion, which would transport Ia
Dor at a trifling cost Of money annd
time to any part of the planet, and
which, by annihilating distance, would
speedily extinguish national distinc-
tions, bring in the brotherhood of all
mankind and do away with war and
its expensive ornaments. The third
was the manufacture of food from the
elements by chemical process IN
the laboratory, similar to that which
is now performed within the bodies
of animals and plants. Food would
then be manufactured in unlimited
quantities at trifling expense; and
our enlightened posterity would look
back upon us who eat oxen and sheep
lust as we look back upon cannibals-
Hunger and starvation would then be
unknown, and the best part of the
human life would be no longer wasted
in the tedious process of cultivating
the fields. Population would nightly
increase, and the earth would be a
garden. Governments would be con-
Quoted with the quietude and regul-
arity of club committees. The inter-
est now felt in politics would be
transferred to science; the latest news
from the laboratory of the chemist
or the observatory of the astronomer,
or the experimenting room of the
biologist, would be eagerly discussed. !
Poetry and the fine arts would rule

FILES BIG MORTGAGE.
New Mortgage Placed on Record in
Nineteen Counties by Idaho Co.

A mortgage covering all power
plants, substations, franchises and
other properties has been filed for
/ record by the Idaho Power company
in the ninteen counties in which it is
operating in Idaho and Oregon. The
properties covered by the mortgage
extend from Blackfoot and Pocatello
to Oxbow on the Snake River in east
ern Oregon, and include franchises and
real estate in substantially every city,
town or village in south-central and
southwestern Idaho and eastern Ore
gon. The filing fees viii aggregate
over $500. The conservative basis
upon which the refinancingr has been
done is apparent from the provisions
Of the mortgage, which permit the
company to issue at this time only
s4,50O,O0O Of bonds, on properties
that were formerly subjected 10 bond
issues aggregating over s1S,0O0,OOO-
The new mortgage is in effect what
has lately come to be known as an
open mortgage, in that it provides for
contingencies and possibilities that
cannot be foreseen. While an ulti-
mate limit Of s1OO,OOO,OOO is fixed, it
is not anticipated that such limit
will ever be reached, and while ample
provisions are made for future bond
issues TO meet the demands for i'm
provements and extensions, yet many
strict and detailed provisions are set
out in the mortgage so as TO prevent
any issuance OF bonds other than on
an entirely conservative basis which
will not lessen the value of the bonds
heretofore issued under the mortgage
Among other provisions is the limita-
ton that new bonds issued against
improvements and extensions shall not
be issued for more than so per cent
of the cost of such extensions The ty
ing together into one system of all
the independent power plants in the
Snake River Valley is a great advan-
tage to the users of power, especially
to irrigation companies, as it guaran-
tees continuous service by making it
possible, in case an accident should
happen to one plant, for the power
to be furnished from
another plant.

Finely MiIIed Brad Seems Best.

Commenting on the recent order OF
the British board of trade that in
milling wheat so per cent Of its
weight must be recovered in -four. IN
stead OF 30 per cent as formerly.
Nature remarks that bread made from
so per cent -four is not so nutritious
as that made from 20 per cent -four.
And it adds:
Although so per cent bread con-
tains on the average rather more pro-
TEN than 20 per cent bread. the d.
gestibility Of the protein in the for
mer is rather lower. so that the actual
weight of protein digeSted by the av-
erage individual from one pound OF
so per cent bread is rather less than
the amount digested from one pound
of 20 per cent bread. Again. the en-
ergy value OF so per cent bread is
rather lower than that of 20 per cent
bread"

MANY CHANGES IN new
GAME LAW
Bag Limit Reduced-Quail Bar
red for Three Years-Pheas-
ants May Be Killed.

Sportsmen over the state are in
terested in the final draft Of the bill
that was passed by the legislature
dealing with the fish and game laws
of Idaho. This bill is now before the
governor, and it is understood will
be signed by the chief executive. AS
originally introduced the measure was
not entirely satisfactory to sportsmen,
so it was amended in both the house
and the senate, after which it was
passed.
The following are the principal
changes and provisions in the new
law:
The license remains at 81 for the
season, which means that there will
be no screening of bitches and canals
in the state. If the license had been
raised to S1.5O, it was hoped to put
the extra money in screens for the
protection of fish, millions Of which
are lost annually by running through
canals. The state game warden is
given the power to close any county
in the state on petition Of majority
of the taxpayers when it is reason
ably certain any species of game or
fish is about to become extinct. Fines
or forfeitures collected by county or
city officials for violation Of the game
laws remain in the county where col
lected.
The following lakes and streams are
considered navigable by the terms OF
the bill: Bear Lake, Priest Lake, Pend
d'Oreille. Couer d'Alene lakes, Koot-
enai river to Sun Beam dam, the
Boise river to Arrowrock dam, the
Snake river to Ashton, the south fork
of the Snake river to the Wyoming
line, the Payette river to the town OF
Banks, the st. Joe river to Marble
creek, the north fork of the Clearwater
river to Little North Fork.
The limit on smoked or sailed fish
is raised to 20 pounds instead Of 10,
and the catch of fish with heads off
is reduced to 10 pounds. 1t is made
unlawful to ride up or down stream
on the back of any animal, while fish

The grouse season is made from
Aug. Is to Oct 81, or 80 days shorter
than the old law; the Chinese pleas
ant season is from Nov. l to Nov. 10;
the morning dove season from Aug.
l to Sept. 80, the migratory bird sea-
son from Sept. 16 to Dec. 81, but it is
made unlawful to shoot before sun
rise or after sunset; the quail season
is closed to Nov. l, 1920 and the sage
hen from Aug. Is to 1921.
The bag limit on grouse is reduced
from u to six, with never more than
six in ones possession; the duck limit
from "a to u, with never more than
u in ones possession; the geese limit
from four to two, with never more
than two in ones possession, the snipe
season from IS to six, with never
more than six in ones possession; elk,
one of either sex instead of bull; |
deer, reduced to one of either sex in
stead of two bucks. 1t is made unlaw-
full to have big game in ones posses |
