Shippers Can Help

Shippers can render valuable as
sistance in times of car shortages by
being careful to not overload or un-
derload and cooperate with the rail
roads by loading and unloading cars
promptly and not taking advantage
Of the full free time allowed. Every
day saved on a car helps to get the
equipment back that much sooner.
If every shipper would load and re-
lease equipment promptly all inter
ests would be mutually benefited.
The railroads do not want to profit
by the demurrage charges. The only
reason for the assessing of demur
rage is to secure prompt loading and
release of equipment so that better
service to all shippers can be given.
washington wheat is transport
ed to market both in sacks and in
bulk, at the option of the grower. If
the railroads were to exercise their
option in the matter they would un-

ding it in bulk for economic reasons.
"At this time when the temptation
exists for putting every available
acre into wheat the railroads suggest
and urge the farmers to not take any
chances bur to play safe by diversi-
flying and introducing and increas-
ing live stock Wheat may be made
the principal money crop, but it is
not considered wise 10 put all OF
ones eggs into one basket. The war
is going to stop some day as quick as
it began and the growers might find
that it would be more profitable to
feed their grain to live stock than to
sell it. Live stock is the only thins
that renders the price OF land stable
ard il invariably does. The I'D
eraI introduction of live stock OF
good quality will soon double the
value of the lands.

kerl Urges Crop Rotation

Thomas Il. Kerl of Occur d'Alene,
speaking in place of l.. w. Fluharty,
urged crop rotation for the Palouse
country as means of increasing the
rate OF earnings of all farm acreage.
He declared that fertility is the
foundation of agricultural wealth
and that farmers of this section are
not getting the maximum yield out
OF their land because of too much
summer following.
He urged crop rotation, declaring
that the population of the Palouse
would be quadrupled if crop rotation
was understood and followed.
Substitute barley" said Mr.. Kerr.
Tor wheat, because it absorbs less
moisture, and add clover, which
comes the year following. Follow
clover with oats, oats with peas and
then return to wheat.
Nebraska is without our labor
trouble because her farmers have
learned crop rotation"

Crop Transportation Is Topic

f. W. Graham, western industrial
agent for The Great Northern railway.
speaking on the subject, Transport
ing the Grain Crop said:
There is no crop that the railroads
watch more closely during the grow
ing season and prepare for handling
more carefully than the grain crop
Weekly reports are required from all
agents in the grain districts, showing
conditions OF the growing crop,
weather conditions affecting it ia
vorably or unfayorably and advance
estimates of the yield and tonnage.
Certain commodities like bulk
grain, finished lumber and Oriental
freight have to go through to east
ern destinations in the original cars,
as they can not be transferred with
out injury. There has been heavy
movement of wheat, mostly sacked
the last year to eastern WarehOusing
centers, chiefly to Minneapolis and
Chicago, which eventually went to
the entente allies.

Holland Points to Growth

DIR. 4. o. Holland, president OF the
State College, welcomed the assem-
bly,. He pointed out the increase in
enrolment in agricultural subjects at
the college this year over last
amounting TO . per cent, there being
now enrolled in the department ap-
proximately 800 students.
Speaking of the dispute between
the State College and the State Uni
yersity, DR.. Holland said:
I'VE are not asking that any
courses be transferred either to or
from the State University, but we do
find fault with the educational sur
gey commission S report, however, on
the ground that not penny would
be saved TO the taxpayers should the
commissions recomm endation OF cur
tailment of courses at the State Col
lege be carried out.

acre, while in southern Minnesota
and South Dakota, where similar
iand has been used for live stock
more genrally, land is worth double
and in Iowa at least treble. and in
Illinois, $500 per acre, all due TO
live stock and dairying.
The Dakota farmers got black
eye from wheat rust this year ana
lots of wheat was never threshed. If
they had had live stock they would
have had 4 good deal of alfalfa ana
the live stock would have given them
highly satisfactory returns.
Speaking on the subject Wheat
investigations cf the Experiment Sta
ton Or. Ira D. Cardiff. station
director, said
The experiment station has de-
'ised successful means of removing
smut dust from the machinery dur
Ing the process of threshng. This is
done by means of fans which collect
the smut dust before it passes into
the body Of the separator. Protec-
ton against fire is further afforded
by the installation of fire extin-
guisher which in several tests made
last summer proved satisfactory.
SreS Smut Solution nf Hand
DR.. Cardiff stated his belief that
the solution of the smut problem was
near at hand lin fact" he said, 4
feel sanguine in regard to the whole
smut problem for think in a half
dozen years smut may be almost a
thing of the past"
Early seeding during July and Au-
gust before harvesting as a means of
avoiding smut was urged by r. c.
McCroskey, Jr., a grain grower of
Garfield. "One cause of the smut
evil in the Palouse. he said, lis due
to the slight attention paid by the
farmers to the presence OF smut at
the time of seeding"

Davenport, in his address on Con
serving Soil Fertility" urged blowing

inches together with blowing under

FOR THE BOYS.

You who are men in years, and
You. just entering manhood, stop
and consider life as it is. Re-
member, faction is the essence of
character good or bad. This
character building is a daily
thing, so consider your ways and
weigh your actions. and build
wisely.
What are your aimsY Are you
striving to develop yourself,
mentally and morally, so as to
have an influence in your COM
munity? Our boys will be the
future men of our country, our
lawmakers, and they should be
men who honor the law; they
should be men of principle, who
cannot be corrupted by brides !;
who have the moral courage to
do their duty. When a commun-
ity lacks such men evil and cor
ruption predominant. How much
the well-being Of a communit
depends upon the honest, upright
men in it.
Many temptations beset the
young and they come in contact
with evil influences in every voca-
ton in life. Yet there is within
yourselves, boys, counter-acting
force (if used) that will enable
you to Withstand temptations,
and to overcome the evil infu-
ences with which you will surely
come in contact. Bring your rea-
soning powers to bear. Argue
with yourselves the certain moral
degradation if you continue in a
wrong course. Bring your will
power to bear and keep under the
low appetites and the little mean
things that corrupt any who give
way to them. Have high stand
ard choose a right, open path n
life. Nothing to hide, nothing to
be ashamed Of.
Listen to the counsel of your
parents. Seek the home nest
and its pure influences. Shun
places of vice and evil in every
form. Look carefully over the
record of the past. Are yon
proud of it? Are you willing it
should be read QUIT Are YOU sat
isfed with it, If you can't say
yes, let your every effort be to
better your condition.-Avoyeles

NEWSPAPER MEN DRAFT
EXEMPTIONS.

While there are no specific
class exemptions in the draft for
the National Army, now in ope-
ration, a case Of newspaper man
decided by a local exemption
board in New York City, is of
special interest to readers Of the
Fourth Estate.
After much discussion the
claim of Ralph j. Block, writer
for the Sunday magazine Of the
New York Tribune, was sus-
tanned.
Block earns $40 a week. and
has 1900 in savings. He is
twenty-eight years old, married,
and has no children. His wife
was a school teacher in Indiana
before her marriage.
The wife's father has three
minor children, and cannot sup
port her, it was argued.
"This is a hair line case," the
board stated. "The wife of the
day laborer always is utterly de-
pendent on him. The wife of the
professional or business man Oft
en- is a woman Of sufficient intel
ligence and training to earn her
own living in an emergency.
eff we were to regard nothing
more than the question of de-
pendents, we would send all our
more intelligent men to war and
keep the less intelligent at home.
For that reason we act as we do
in this case.''

Someone has divided mankind

sistently do less than is expected
of them! those who do what is
expected of them but no more
who do thinks without having to
be told, and finally those who
have the magnetic power Of in
spring others to do things.
All the failures in this world
are recruited from the first class.
The second class comprises those
who scrape along in some form of
drudgerv or hackwork. Men of
the third class are always in
great demand in the factory and
in the Office, but the fourth class
represents the highest rung in the
ladder Of success.
In the world Of industry the
fourth class is attained by the dill
igent few who have caught the
spirit of their task and are able
to impart it to the men under
them. They are the men who,
without being slave drivers. are
able to increase hte output of an

HOW TO BE HAPPY THOUGH

On nearly every farm and il

great deal that can be done and
ought to be done to increase hui
man, comfort in summer. Here
are a few suggestions:
/. Work early and late but
take good rest and nap in the
middle Of the day. This is the
custom in nearly all countries to
the south Of us, and ought to be
followed more generally by farm
ers in our section. The write was
talking recently with ex-Presi-
dent Taft, who emphasized this
wise adaptation to conditions in
the most striking features Of life
in those is lands.
2. Screen the house to keep
out the flies and mosquitoes.
3. Provide comfortable ham,
mocks, rocking chairs, and rustic
seats for the porch and lawn.
Hammocks and rocking chairs
don't cost much, and after doing
a hard days work, the tired
farmer and his wife are certainly
entitled to the extra comfort
these conveniences offer.

ernoons off for baseball or the
