FREIGHT RATES
ON COAL ADVANCE
FUEL ADMINISTRATORS GOODING
ISSUED INSTRUCTIONS
TO FUEL DEALERS

An order will be issued in a few
days instructing all coal dealers to
make inventory of all coal on hand
on date when freight rates are ad-
vanced under the recent order of
w. G. McAdoo, as director general of
railroads, and report to this office
not later than July 1, 1918. The in
ventory must also include all coal en-
route on that date.
In this order dealers will be in
structed and advised that the addi-
tional charge for freight on coal made
on that date must not be added to
the selling price of coal on hand or
en- route; that the sales price must
remain as at present until the amount
of coal then on hand or en- route has
been sold.
1t is felt that such an order is neces-
sary at this time, as otherwise many
of the dealers might find themselves
under investigation by the Federal
Trade commission and subject to pun
ishment for overcharging for coal.
A number of stickers have just been
received from the United States Fuel
administration at Washington, which
it is hoped can be used by business
men, banks, etc., i'm their correspond
ence The Washington administra-
ton makes very clear showing that
if coal is not ordered early in the sum-
mer that government work will not
only be slowed up perceptibly, but that
coal famine of serious proportions
will confront the people of the United
States when winter comes on.
There seems to be no doubt of the
accuacy of this forecast, and it is be-
lieved the people of Idaho should be
induced to get their coal just as soon
as possible. At least they should order
now, even though delivery may be
delayed until the early fall months.

IDAHO WOMEN QUOTE
COLONEL ROOSEVELT
UNIQUE METHOD OF BRINGING
PRESSURE TO BEAR UPON
SENATOR BORAH OF IDAHO

Theodore Roosevelt will help gain
suffrage for the women Of the nation
and ask all United States senators to
vote and work for it, except Senator
Borah. That was the statement which
he made to a group of Detroit suf-
fragists this week. 81 am doing all
that can, all over the nation, for the
National Suffrage Amendment" said
the Colonel, smiling at his hearers.
81 have written to all of the senators,
all that is, excepting Borah. I must
decline to write to Borah, because
women have suffrage in his state,
and if the women in the state where
they have vote, cannot bring this
about, no one can. To try to stop
suffrage" continued the Colonel, "is
like a boa constructor trying to swal
low porcupine wrong end to. | have
no sympathy with those who would
try to stop the campaign during the
war. You should stop no useful thing
during the war-on the contrary,
suffrage should be urged through the
war"
The women Of Idaho, realizing that
the responsibility of the passage of
the National Suffrage amendment is
up to them, are making every effort
and will continue to, until the favor
able vote of Senator Borah is gained.

Latah county was entitled to four men
in the military training school for
special service, which begins on June
Is, and the quota was filled with vol

ENC|NEERISEN|ORS
TO GO TO CAMP LEE
LITTLE'S DEP ARTMENT
CALLED TO ARMY WORK

By the regulations of the chief engi-
neers, U. S. army, made December Is,
1917, with the approval of the secre-
tary of war, and heretofore published
in these columns, all engineering stu
dents who reach the required high
standard of scholarship and are duly
recommended by the faculty are per-
mitted to enlist as privates in the en-
listed reserve corps of the engineer
department and to receive deferred
classification in Glass V in order TO
enable them to complete their courses
of study to the end that on gradua-
ton they may be of greater service
in our army.
This arrangement has worked out
very advantageously to the four men
of the senior class who received this
privilege. Late in April the Univer-
sity of Idaho was permitted to send
one enlisted private from the senior
class to the fourth engineer officers
training camp at Camp Lee, Virginia.
Mr.. Clarence H. Sandberg of Moscow,
senior in chemical engineering, was
chosen by the faculty for this oppor
tunity, and went to the camp at the
end of April. Later telegram came
permitting the remaining seniors who
were privates in the enlisted reserve
to attend the same camp, and on June
1st E. T. Almquist, electrical; ]. G.
-Reeder, chemical engineering, and
Lorentz G. Wade, electrical engineer
ing, left for Camp Lee. In letter
to Dean Little, Mr.. Sandberg speaks
of the fine training given in this
camp, and says that none will be made
officers at Camp Lee who are not
fitted to become officers. "The train
ing camp is the pick of the army and
the colleges and only the best will be
chosen"

CONVENTION FOR
Z MOSCOW NEXT MONTH
POULTRY ASSOCIATION TO HOLD
ANNUAL CONVENTION HERE
JULY Is TO II

The program is complete, and indi-
cations are that the meeting will be
well attended.
The association met in Corvallis
last year, and there was good rep
resentation Of the colleges there. 1t
is hoped this year that the attendance
will be greater than last year. 1t is
hoped that the organization may be
put on permanent working basis
this year, and that the annual meet
ings will be provided for. Those who
attended the meeting at Corvallis last
year felt that the meeting was well
worth while. Exchanges Of ideas give
us broader vision, which assures
greater efficiency.
The poultry industry is no longer
an infant. This was made very clear
at the Naaional Poultry conference,
held in Chicago, May 29-30, 1918,
when Mr.. w. T. Subals, business man
ager of the National Poultry, Butter
and Egg association, reported the egg
crop for 1917. He stated that the
carefully compiled statistics of their
association showed the United States
egg crop for 1917 to be $725,000, 900.
They had not at that time completed
the valuation Of poultry meats, but
were certain that the two products
would put the combined sum well over
the billion-dollar mark.
The war creates a necessity for
greater production, and at the same
time brings about conditions which
make production appear quite diff
cult. The difficulties are real, but
there must be way to overcome
them in every locality. Production
is necessary; hence we must over
come any and all obstacles which may
stand in the way Of production. We
must go even farther than to merely
keep up normal production; we must
increase production.
There were many interesting facts
brought out last year, and no doubt
the years work in the meantime will
be very valuable to all, when notes
are compared. It can readily be seen,
therefore, that the meeting will be Of
interest to producer as well as in
structor, and it is hoped that as many
as can make it possible to do so will
be in attendance.

sions Satisfactory.

The modern farmers wife Is no
longer satisfied with the old accepted
idea that "the farm gives us liv-
Ing" but she gets out her pencil and
paper and asks "How much Of llv-
Ing does II give us?"
Generations ago neither the farm
nor the farm household had any but
minor dealings with the outside world.
Under such conditions the need for
accounts was slight. But those con-
dltIons no longer exist. The farm
household. though still In many cases
receiving its major support In farm
products consumed at home, purchases
far more extensively than ever be-
fore from outside sources. Farm house
hold accounts have become essential
to economy.
Household expenses on the farm are
very intimately associated with the
business of the farm itself. The farm
normally supplies much material

household expense. The household, In
turn, very often furnishes board for
farm labor, which would otherwise be

business. household accounts nre de-
sirable and should serve to supplement
and round out farm accounts.
Ways Of Keeping Records.
There are two methods of keeping
record o. household expenditures.
One Is to record the purchases or
money paid out without classifying
the expenditures. The other Is TO clas-
sify when the record is made.
The first method Is very simple, re-
qulres no special form. and gives all
necessary information regarding ex-
penditurcs. At the end of the month
or at the end of the year the total
expenditures readily may be deter
mined. In order, however. TO know
the totals for each kind or class II will

each month (or at the end of the year)
may cause encouragement and neglect
Of classification. with the result that
the greatest good that could he derived
from the records Is not realized.
Under the second method, In addi.
tion to being entered all together In
