With the American army in Lor-

are keen fighters. Their success has
led the Germans to change their. tao

One is to send two planes to cause
low and as the Americans rise to
an alarm. Reinforcements then fol-
give battle to the two planes the
others swoop upon the Sammies. d
Another trick has been to draw the

Carnival COMING
TO MOSCOW SUNDAY
NEXT WEEK WILL BE ONE OF
AMUSEMENT FOR MOSCOW
AND LATAH COUNTY

Beginning next Monday night at
the county fair ground, Moscow will
hold big carnival, given by the
Bernardo Greater Exposition shows.
This company has for the last Is
months been on the road giving week
ments in the country. For the last
three months they have been in Port
land, Seattle and Tacoma. The
largest crowds that they have shown
to were at Tacoma, being there three
weeks and showing to an average of
5000 night. On account of the large
attendance, the soldiers and sailors
club, under whose auspices they were
playing, made a request for the COM
pany to stay over one more week,
and to the surprise of both the COM
mittee and manager of the show, it
was the largest week of all. The last
night there was an attendance Of
27,852 admissions at the front gate.
AS everybody knows that all shows
have to pay 10 per cent war tax, :
neat little sum was turned over to
Uncle Sam to help bring Kaiser Bill
to his knees.
Manager Bernardo wired his agent
to be sure to announce that the gate
to the carnival would be wide open,
and no charges; that everybody will
be welcome.
The show this week has been play
ing under the auspices Of the Loyal
Order Of Moose, at Spokane, and the
money goes to strengthen their war
chest fund, which is used to educate
the children of those that have gone
lover there" in behalf Of democracy.
The company is expected to get into
Moscow about 6 p. m. Sunday, and at
once will begin to unload, so as to be
ready to open Monday night on time.
Come over on the grounds the night
Of the opening and have a coed time
and meet your friends.

AR MEN|AN RELIEF
FUND IS GROWING
ABOUT 20 PER CENT OF THE
COUNTY QUOTA HAS BEEN
PAID TO TREASURER

Armenian relief fund continues to
creep up. To date $3.50 has been de-
posted. This leaves $3.50 still to be
raised.
The council Of defense are sending
individual assessment slips all around.
Some people who have already paid,
and others who have adopted chill
dren or pledged monthly amounts,
may receive these slips. In this case
please note to credit yourself with
amount already paid or pledged. The
assessment is not intended to be an
addition to your contribution.
Please note to pay your assessment
to M. w. Griffith, secretary of coun-
Gil of defense.
At recent conference of Armenian
relief organizers and public officials
many of the leading writer's of Am
erica pledged their services towards
an educational campaign regarding
the war situation in the east. The
press also undertook to accept the
writings of these men on this subject.

1t is important that all reports of
intended contributions are in by Sun
day night. The boxes will be packed
next Tuesday, and any articles not

No kodak views Of Moscow and
vicinity were contributed to the last

persons have extra prints of home
views which they would not miss and
which the soldiers would very much
appreciate. Those who can give such
pictures are asked to send them to

Dean Iddings Returns

w. J. Iddings, dean of agriculture
at the University Of Idaho, returned
yesterday evening from Spokane
where he attended a meeting of the
county agents of eastern Washington
and northern Idaho. This meeting
was an important one and the chief
topic was increased hog production.
The great shortage of both hog feed
and pork are causing uneasiness and
the meeting called by the Spokane
chamber Of commerce was for the
purpose of devising means of raising
more hogs and securing cheaper hog
feed than high priced grain. There
was a good attendance.

CROP CONDITIONS
THROUGHOUT IDAHO
SOUTHEASTERN PORTION GETS
HEAVY RAiNS-NORTHE
PART LESS FORTUNATE


BOISE.-Rains, general end quite
heavy in the eastern counties but only
light to moderately heavy and some
what scattered elsewhere, occurred IN
most sections OF the state during the
past week. AS a result the crop stu
alton is somewhat improved, although
more rain is badly needed In most
parts of the western end northern
counties. In tie eastern counties the
rails fnterferred with haying and
damaged the crop considerably. The
general condition of all crops in the
eastern portion of the state is excel
lent, ample. moisture and moderate
temperatures having favored the
proper filling of all grains.
All crops in the irrigated districts
made rapid growth. Corn, favored by
warm nights, made phenomenal prog
ress an is now tasseling in many
fields. Alfalfa is growing fine and
the second cutting is beginning. Al
falfa weevils are reported numerous
In Bannock county Dry farm pas
lures and meadows in the west and
north are very short. AS a result OF
the light hay crop many milk cows
and other stock are being offered
for sale in Bonner county. Range
conditions are somewhat improved by
the rains and range stock for the
1900 x~or@ .ro Io,x. WILL
The winter wheat harvest is be-
coming general The early fields have
been cut. Yields are variable; in gen
eral the crop in the eastern counties
is in very good condition; in the
western and northern counties the
crop is spotted - in some localities
fair to good, in others, more severely
affected by drought, very short and
being cut for hay. The spring wheat
crop is generally in excellent condi-
ton, except where lack of rain has
cut the crop short. Some damage by
aphides is reported in Ada, Canyon,
and Twin Falls counties.
Potatoes and beans are making a
thrifty growth; cannery peas are
poor in the north and are below the
average in Payette county where some
fields are affected by weevil; sugar
beets are doing very we'll, but in the
Idaho Falls districts the fields are
weey and stands are uneven; the
season is at it's height, with !
a fair crop of good quality being
gathered.

Third, for a sane preparation nov
for solution of the problems i'm
measurable in their complexity an(
magnitude which will come after thu
war. We are as unprepared for peace
as we were for war. Every country
except America is preparing fol
peace.
1--WE will establish policies which
once again will bind up the wounds
of war, which will renew our pros
perity, which will administer the af-
fairs of this government on a sound
business basis and which will enlarge
our strength at home and abroad"
Mr.. Hays said that the war does
not lessen, but rather accentuates, the
American peoples responsibilities in
the matter of being self-governing.
Il do not want any allegations from
either one side or the other concern
ing disloyalty in this coming cam
paign," the speaker said "Any such
allegation will give totally false i'm
preston of conditions in this country
to the enemy and the man or commit
tee or party who starts anything like
that will be guilty of the worst kind
of disloyalty.
"Our candidates will be such a
character that a republican victory
this fall will mean primarily one
thing-an ever increasing vigorous
prosecution Of the war. A republican
congress means war congress which
will be warranty of it's own per-
Torrance and guarantee of COM
plete fulfillment of every department
OF the government. Every republican
vote cast is another nail in the
