President Wilson in his message to
the farmers Of the United States of
January 81, voices a strong faith in
their loyalty and makes a strong call
for their cooperation in winning the
war.
II has been the fashion of many
writer's to compare the production
peracre of European farmers with
that OF American farmers to the detri-
ment of the American. The Presi-
dent, however, makes the assertion
that the farmers of this country are
as efficient as any other farmers in
the world, and that while they do
not produce more per acre, it is not
only not necessary that they should
0 so, but perhaps 1t would be bad
economy for them to attempt it.
The real test is that they do produce
by two, or three times more per man
per unit of labor and capital than
the farmers of any European country; (;
they are more alert and use more
labor-saying devices than any other
farmers in the world
The response of the farmers, says
Mr. Wilson to the demands of the
present emergency has been in every
way remarkable and he quotes fig
lures in proof of the assertion. These
achievements, he urges. should be re-
peated and even exceeded.
The President denies that the Gov
ernment has sought to fix the price of
foodstuffs and not sought to fix other
prices which determine the expenses
Of the farmer, stating that the Gov
ernment has successfully regulated
the prices of many materials under
lying all the interests of the country,
and such regulation was not only for
the purchases of the Government but
for the purchases of the public, and
in fixing the prices of foodstuffs the
Government has sincerely tried to
keep the interests of the farmer as
much in mind as the interests of
others.
Recalling the historic action of the
farmers of Lexington, when they
fired the shot that was heard around
the world" President Wilson says
that the toll, the intelligence, the
energy, the foresight, the sacrifices
and devotion of the farmers of
America will bring to triumphant
conclusion this great last war for the
emancipation of men from control of
arbitrary government and the sell
flshness of class legislation.

COUNTY AGENTS
NOW PLACED IN
% COUNTIES

During the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1917 the number of county
agents in the northern and western
ates increased from 419 to 542,
On that date Idaho had nine county
agents and eight county farm bu-
reaus. In Novembel Carl Voorman,
5sistant secretary of agriculture,
called all state agent leaders of that
district together in a conference at
Salt Lake. AT that conference Mr..
Noorman stated that the National
Government felt that in order to
meet the situations rapidly develop
ing out of the war, it was necessary
to have a county agent in every
tcounty of the United States at the
earliest possible moment To date
Idaho has responded to that demand
with tWenty-eight counties hiring
agents. Farm Bureau organization
is under way in all but about three
COuHJ Ties III CHe SldlG. OWlHB 10 Inc
rapid growth of this work, the num-
Der of county agents, farm bureau
organizations and members of farm
bureaus in the United States cannot
be given at this time.
In January of this year, move
ment was started at the agricultural
conference at Idaho Falls for the or
ganization of a State Farm Bureau.
This effort to coordinate the efforts
of all the county farm bureaus has al
ready brought some good results, one
of which was the meeting at Gooding
to work out a state program to handle
the labor situation for the coming
year, as was mentioned in this paper
not long ago.
Now a National Farm Bureau is
being developed to coordinate the
work of all the states, and develope a
nationwide program of work in agri
culture.

Capture Of Sandusky Clears
up Mystery of how He
Made His Escape From
Glenns Ferry Last Fall.
HAD DODGED PUR-
SUERs FOR MONTHS
Was Ready to Cross Border to
Mexico But Made Fatal Trip to
Postofilce at El Paso, Where He
Expected Mail.

Sheriff Stevens returned from Ell
Paso, Texas, Tuesday with c. G.
Sandusky who was arrested in that
city a week earlier. Sandusky is the
man who, after cutting his wife
brutally with a knife last summer,
made sensational escape from
Glenns Ferry, after a Gordon a vol
unteer man hunters had been formed
around the entire town. During the
trip from Texas Sandusky told the
sheriff the details of his escape and
subsequent wanderings. After leav
committed, he made straight for the
river and with the aid of a heavy
plank, foated some six miles down
river, landing on the opposite side
and lying hidden in the willows for
TWO nights and a day He then
crossed the river and, by springing
the door, got into a carload of tea
billed for back east. without breaking
the seal. He was three days in this
ear with nothing to eat, and his on
ly drink bottle of Snake river
water with which he had provided
himself on starting. Since that time
he has travelled over a large part of
the United States, Canada and Mex
leo, on a constant lookout for pur-
suers At the time of his arrest in
El Paso. two men we're waiting at
the post office for him to call for his
mail, and Sandusky related it to Mr.
Stevens, that he stood outside for
several minutes, debating whether it
were safe for him to call at the post
office
At the time of his arrest he was
armed with heavy revolver and
would probably have used it had the
opportunity presented itself.
1t is probable that Sandusky will
plead guilty to his crime before the
next session of court, and receive
a sentence to the penitentiary.

When stately the tall camas flower
Grows purple by all Of the streams,

Who sits in the sunlight and

No matter how freezing the storm

Where the sleet-crusted riders CAP

Or the winds are at prayer in the

Or the aspens are starting a song
Or the cottonwoods preach to US

To help as we travel along
And what if some horses have throwD

And kicked us and left us for dead
And what If the sun devils often
Lit all their red hells on the head

Life's a trail that winds onward and

Till it crosses the Great Divide;
Lifes a range with it's prairies and

Where all of us riders must ride.
And we each have part in the

And we all have our horses to

And every man rides on the night

When it seems we just cant keep

We must cross the line basin in

Or go in the blue rain alone,
To gather the strays for the branding
The mavericks whom some one

There are droyes which have never
been gathered;
We must rope them and put on the

There are drives in the bitter March

And camps we must make in the

We chat round the old water hole;
But tomorrow we may drink from

Where the NANCY coyotes roll.
