MEMBERS OF BOYS AND GIRLS
CLUBS TO PLANT BEETS

A number of the members of the
county clubs have agreed to plant
sugar beets this season. From the
beets grown will be made a simple
syrup. The process for making this
product is very easily learned and
the government has issued a bulletin
on the planting, cultivation of the
sugar beet and the manufacture of
this syrup.
Club Supervisor Wilson has re-
ceived quantity of beet seed from
the department and will distribute it
among the club members. Each
grower of beets should secure copy
of the bulletin mentioned above either
from the Club Supervisor c. B. Will
son, or of the department at Wash
ington.

MOSCOW STILL FAILS TO RAISE !.
QU0TA---0THER TOWNS GO OVER

I. Driscoll, county manager of the
drive, says that Deary's quota was only
$500 and the town has raised $500,
or 500 per cent oversubscribing it's al
lotment 500 per cent which is believ-
ed to be a record for the northwest.
Mrs. Edna Pond of Cora precinct
reports that precinct gave more than
double it's quota. j. E. Blalock of
Cornwall precinct, reports $211.50
raised on a quota of $10O and says
that Cornwall is planning big cele-
bration on July and will ask Mos
COW to join with her then
Thorn Creek, with a quota of $500
has raised 1865. 1t is believed that
when the drive is closed next Mnday
Latah county will have subscribed
$4,000. The county's quota is $14,-
500.
Moscow is still several hundred dol
lars behind and those who have not
subscribed are asked to do so at once.

Combined harvesters, made in
Moscow, are used for harvesting at
the very lowest and very highest
points in the United States where
wheat is raised. Some of the ma
chimes are now at work near Hebel',
in the Imperial Valley, California,
800 feet below sea level and other
machines made by this company are
owned and were used last year at
Montpelier, Idaho, $500 feet above sea
level, which is said to be the highest
point in the United States where
wheat is successfully grown.
Few people, even here in Moscow,
realize the magnitude and Importance
of the plant of the Idaho National
Harvester company, which was found
ed here in 1911, in which year two
machines were made, and has in
creased in size until now it has a ca
pacity of 200 machines year. AL
ready 13 carloads Of the machines
have been shipped to California for
the season which is just opening in
the extreme southern part of that
S sate and several more carloads are
Orders for five machines
were received yesterday from Stock
ton, California, and other orders
were received from Phoenix, Arizona.

While every other town in the coun-
ty is oversubscribed in the Red Cross
drive, Moscow still lags with her quota
not raised. There are a number of
persons who have failed to respond to
the general call for subscriptions and
these are urged, publicly, to come for
ward now and give their share. The
committee does not want to make any
personal solicitions and will not make
any, but it is determined that Mos
cows full quota will be raised without
personal solicitation and that Moscow
will win honor by being the only
town in the county if not in the state
to raise it's quota by free-will Of
ferings from it's people. The campaign
can not close before next Monday eve
ming. That is the date fixed by the
government. The campaign is to con-
tinue one week and subscriptions can
be received until the close of the week,
which is Monday, May 27

NATIONAL HARVESTERS
IN HIGH AND LOW ATTITUDES

A. A. Taylor, we'll known in Moscow,
is the company agent at Phoenix and
is doing a good business. He tele-
graphed the company yesterday that
harvest had begun at Heber, Cali
fornia, and that Mr.. Clipper, to whom
machine had been sold, is delighted
with the machine as are many other
purchasers of machines in that part
Of the country.
Heber is in the Imperial Valley, the
lowest point in the world, being 800
feet below sea level. 1t is but few
miles from the boundary line between
the United States and Mexico. Har-
vest has begun there and the grain
is yielding well. 1t will be but a
short time now until the new crop
wheat from that section and Arizona
and Texas will reach the markets
and relieve the bread shortage.
Each car holds three machines, and
13 carloads have been sent to Cali
fornia and Arizona, which means 39
machines and orders enough are now
in to swell the number to so for that
section. The company has 20 ma
chimes nearly completed and is work
ing hard to keep up with the demands
for the machines. If material and

MOSCOW FIREMAN
ELECT OFFICERS
YEAR JUST CLOSED HAS BEEN
A RECORD ONE FOR LIGHT
FIRE LOSSES

The Moscow firemen have elected
officers for the year. Carl Smith
is chief, W. S. Russell, first assist
ant and w. G. Barge, second assist
ant chief. ]. H. Decker was elected
secretary and Frank Stanton, treas
urer. A committee was appointed to
see the city council and ask that the
old pay of SIS per month for each
company be restored. This payment
was given up by the companies when
the new engine was bought, as the
firemen's contribution to the fund
to pay for the engine. That was two
years ago and the men feel that this
sum should be paid to them now.
There are six companies with about
100 men in Moscow and this would
mean but $50 per month to the city.
AS all of the men serve without pay
it is a small cost for so efficient a
fire department.
Have Liberty Bonds
The firemen have $2500 invested
in Liberty bonds and $340.85 in cash
in their fund for the care Of firemen
and have $191, cash in the general
fund. The special fund is used to
defray expenses of sick firemen Or
in case of death, for flowers and
other incidentals of the funeral. The
past year has been unique in that
not cent has been apid out for sick
benefits nor has fireman died dur
ing the year.
Fire Loss is Small
The report shows what is believed
70 be the smallest fire loss of town
The size of Moscow for year. Dur
ng the past year the total fire losses
n Moscow amounted to but $3,075,
,r only about rs cents per capita.
There were six fires, all being ex-
,inguished with very light loss. Eff
,orts will be made to ascertain If
his is not a record for small losses
