WHEAT CROP
IS DOUBTFUL YET
WHAT VISITOR FROM SPOKANE
FINDS ON TOUR OF
INSPECTION.

Arthur Wonsetler who was in Mos
COW this week making a special inves-
tigation of crop conditions does not
take an optimistic view of the situa-
ton. He reports a poor stand OF
winter wheat in Whitman and Latah
counties. In addition to his own COM
ments he gives the following:
j. S. Heckathorn, cashier of the
First National bank, says seeding to
wheat last fall was below the aver
age. This was in part, due to the
heavy acreage seeded the previous
year. The wheat was smothered out
by a heavy snow, which melted and
formed blanket of ice, which laid
on the ground a long time. They
SOW red Russian, club and forty-fold
here for the main crop. Mr.. Hecka-
thorn thinks peas and oats will be
largely used to reseed the patches. The
horses in this section are soft and
not in good shape for the heavy rush
which is coming on. Farm help is
not so much of a problem because the
farmers usually do their own work.
Charles J. Munson said there was no
reseeding east of town in his district
because they waited last fall for moist
ure and the stand was fairly good. He
thought about 60 per cent of the nor
NAL acreage was seeded last fall
I. E. Snow, who lives four miles
south of town, said fall seeded acre
age was normal, but that so per cent of
it was winter killed. They are plowing
up whole fields there. He saw them
start on a 200-acre field this morning
where the stand is as much as 60
per cent.
E. J. Armbruster, who lives three
miles north of town, is going in strong
for peas. He will seed 600 acres. hav-
ing begun this week. Wheat is look
ing better than week ago.
J. J. Keane, who has ranch in the
Genesee district, told me that there
was an average acreage there, but 25
to 80 per cent was winter killed. Most
of it died on the west side hills. Where
there is above an average stand they
let it alone in that district because
seed is too high and the season so
late they hesitate to lose what they
nave Mr.. Keane, declares that with
good weather now they can still have a
good crop in Latah county, and he is
lot worrying.

Roosevelt Trip to France Elfniuated
Age Limit Fixed at 81 10
80 Inclusive

WASHINGTON-By eliminating the
Roosevelt division amendment from
the selective military service bill the
house and senate conferees reached
an agreement this afternoon They
will report to their respective houses
as quickly as their findings can be-
put into shape.
The conferees eliminated all amend
ments providing for the raising of a
volunteer cavalry force for border
duty.
The prohibition amendment, as
passed by the senate, was left in the
bill
The age limit of those subject to
conscription is fixed at 81 to 80 in
elusive.
1t is considered certain that the
senate will endeavor to restore the
Roosevelt amendment, but since the
conferees agreed to eliminate it, and
the administration does not want it, it
is not believed that the amendment
can be adopted.
1t is regarded likely that within
three months the first 100000 men will
be selected.

CLUB WORK
UNDER WAY
Latah County Organizers Start Things
Among the Boys and Girls for
Better Crops

Prof. c. B. Wilson, Miss q. Fay
Fowler and Miss 'Winifred CalNins
have just completed pretty complete
tour of Latah county in the interest
of boys and girls club work.
"The object of the trip was two
fold" Professor Wilson said. First
to assist in the organization of clubs
Second, to enlist school boards and
commercial organizations in the work.
Make Hundred Visits
Monday and Tuesday we visited
Bovill, Deary, Harvard, Princeton and
Potlatch, and the work avs inaugural
ed in all these places. Later visits
were made to Kendrick and Juliaetta,
Troy and Genesee will be visited soon.
The lateness of the season and the
lack of time will make it impossible
to visit all rural communities. Any
community that desires to form an or
ganization will get all possible assist
ance by addressing me here in Mos
COW.
Plan for the Work
''It is the plan to organize club
work in eight or 10 of the larger COM
meaities Of the county where. the iu-
terest is greatest and to confine the
efforts of the supervisor largely to
those communities so that two or three
Gays a month may be spent in each
one of them. Each community desir-
ing such supervisor is asked to con-
tribute a small sum towards a fund
to be handled by the county superin-
tendent and used in defraying the
expenses of the supervisor"
Professor Wilson speaks enthusias-
tically of the interest taken in this
work and looks forward to big results
when hravest time comes. He tells
many interesting facts, too, of the diff
ferent crop conditions in the different
parts of the county.
