farmers thru the farm bureaus and
there will be proper priority rights
on cars so that there will be no tie
ups on account of transportation.
AS the second factor in determine
ing the basic price of hay it must be
in keeping with values of products
which depend upon hay for their in
crease. BY chart worked out to
cover these various products Mr..
Alfred showed that hay should be
1855 per cent of what 1t was as an
average of the years 1912-13-14.
This would put the price of hay at
1888 ton.
The third factor to be considered
in determining the price is whether
or not certain other industries de-
pending upon hay can live at the
price set.
After considerable discussion It
was decided by the meeting to use
this basis in figuring the price of hay
and Mr.. Alfred will shortly announce
the price. The general impression
seemed to prevail in the meeting
that the price will be about the same
as that of last year.
The meeting adopted by the
quartermasters method of grading
hay and the Fowl method Of measur-
ng, which is recommended by the
D. s. Department of Agriculture.

gay, agreed upon a plan to be used
IN hiking the price on hay for this
year. The meeting attracted men
from Madison, Fremont, Jefferson,
bonneville, Bingham and Franklin
counties and there was an atten-
dance of over two hundred. It had
originally been advertised for the
court house, but was transferred to
the Star theatre. The sessions lasted
until late in the afternoon, many
OF the men taking opportunity to
discuss the hay situation.
Mr.. Alfred presided over the meet
ing. In opening the meeting he gave
the reasons for setting the hay price
last year without holding meetings
or the farmers. These reasons be-
ing That other states were not organ
lied so that comparative figures
could be obtained and the necessary
information was not secured until
too late to hold meetings.
Mr.. Alfred said that three factors
must be discussed in order to de-
termine the basic price of hay. The
first of these is the foreign demand
or demand from outside of the state.
Figures in Idaho's cometitors in the
hay producing business showed Utah
has a crop of 70 per cent of last
year, Colorado 80 per cent. Montana
will fall far below last year, Wash
ington II per cent on the second crop
the first crop being only 80 per cent.
California will be low compared
with last year and Oregon shows
"a per cent of normal. Another
factor in considering the outside de-
mand is the purchase of hay by the
army. Mr.. Alfred stated that the
quartermaaters department of the
method followed last year will not
be continued this year, but the army
will buy it's hay direct from the

on their duty as American patriots.
! Professor Souby is paving a brief

pacitv as educational executive of

the Y. M. c. A. for the southeastern
department. His forceful address to
the men at the Navy "Y' was wholly
informal. and served as a mentally
stimulating treat for the crowded
house that had assembled to witness
the weekly stunt night.
Professor Souby first reminded the
men that their chief duty was to
prepare to live rather than to pre-
pare to die. for by far the great ma
iority of them would safely return
to assume the responsibilities of
civil life after the war. Moreover
the men who do return from the war
will be the leaders in thought and
action in the period of reconstruction
that will inevitably follow. "Do you
realize" Professor Soubv challenged
the men in blue. chat the future of
America depends on you, you who
will be the judges, the governors, the
congressman. and the presidents of
tomorrow? Then so prepare your
selves now for that heritage that
when it descends upon YOUR Shout

ready and as competent to serve as
YOU have proved yourselves in this
present hour of its necessity"
Here the professor wished to con-
clude his address, but the men urg-
emily called upon him to continue.
after calling upon the men to live up
to the best that is in them, Profess
sor Soubv closed his address with a
direct appeal to each man present
to play the game of war with clean
bodies and cool heads. to the end that
from the black embers of van
ouished Prussianism might arise the
abiding edifice of human brother
hood.

LOCAL CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE HELPSCLEAR
UP FREIGHT CONGESTION

In reply to a letter sent out by
the Charleston Chamber of Com
merce to similar bodies in all south
ern seaports, the Pensacola Chamber
of Commerce has pledged its coop
Grafton in relieving the congested
condition of railroad traffic.
The following letter was sent out
yesterday:
Conference.-The Pensacola Cham
Der of Commerce will gladly CO.
operate with you and will take such
steps at once to turn the congested
traffic toward the South Atlantic
and Gulf Ports.
A proper utilization of the South
ern ports would have the important
incidental advantages of offsetting
the flow of railroad cars out of the
South, and would tend to bring about
naturally and economically a re-
location of cars so that the lines in
this territory would come into pos
session of their quota of the car
supply.
The time has now come for the
whole South TO step forward and
make known not only its loyalty and
willingness to serve the Nation, but
ltS aDlllty ana capacity TO contribute
largely to the most effective solu-
ton of the grave problem of trans
port, both ocean and domestic, which
is at present in state of serious
embarrassment by reason of conges-
ton at terminals and on the rail
lines serving the Eastern ports. The
fault seems to lie in the fact, that
the representative of the foreign
Governments. which control the vast
majority of the ocean tonnage, send
most Of the ships to the Eastern
ports, which causes export traffic to
flow thereto, with resultant conges-
ton, while a large and first class
ship loading capacity at every South
Atlantic and Gulf port lies unutilized
and idle.
We will take this matter up with
our congressman and business men
and can assure you of our hearty CO.
operation and support.
Yours very truly,
A. r. BECK,
Secretary.

ADJUSTMENTS
THE DEVIL STONE"
SHOWING AT ISIS

Geraldine Farrar is at the Isis
again. Right upon the heels of her
great photoplay, "The Woman God
Forgot" comes another new and
highly interesting picture entitled,
The Devil Stone," reviewed by crit
les everywhere and pronounced one
of her most positive successes.
Geraldine Farrar in ''The Devil
Stone" Is a new type of photoplay.
Scenario writers, playwrights and
dramatic critics have wagged their
heads in despair and declared. "there
are no new plots. Give us something
new. Love and war and the domes-
tic triangle; oppression, crime and
western stories; everything has been
done-what can We do that is diff
ferent - But in this photoplay
which was produced under the per-
sonal direction of Cecil B. DeMille, a
complete departure from the usual
story has been accomplished.
Wallace Reid and big company
of capable support are seen with
Miss Farrar. in The Devil Stope."
Robert Bosworth is Robert Judson.
Tully Marshall, who played the dope
fiend in Clyde Fitch's The City" is
Silas Martin. James Nell is Simp-
son, the butler. To Wallace Reid
falls the responsibility of the part of
GUY Sterling. one of the greatest bits
he has ever done before the camera.
Other units of the bill at the Isis
now showing: are the World Visions
and pleasing comedy subject. The
Isis orchestra, under the baton of
Prof A. c. Reilly, contributes a
splendid overture and a special mtsf-
