POINTS OUT LINE
FOR INVESTIGATION
FARM MARKETS DEPARTMENT
HAS WORK FOR COMMISSION
Err OF INVESTIGATION

The state farm markets department
of which Miles Cannon is director
suggests a comprehensive line of in
vestigation for the consideration O
the north Idaho commission of inveS
/ tigation, which will hold a hearing il
this city April 3, and 5. The com
mission is working under the direc
ton of the newly created department
of agriculture.
The following is a list of subject
which the farm markets department
requests the commission to consider
| l. Will state grading and inspec-
tion have a beneficial or detrimental
effect on the grain producers of north
Idaho?
| g. Is it a practical undertaking to
harmonic state inspection, under fed
eral cooperation, with U. S. terminal
inspection?
8. If so, should terminal inspection
be suspended by federal authorities
4. If not, should terminal inspec-
ton fees be omitted where federalized
grades and inspection is made at the
point of shipment?
5. Are the rules. equipment and re-
suits of all U. S. inspection the same
whether made at point of shipment or
destination.
6. If not, why not?
7. Should grading and inspection
from grower to shipper, if efficient
and satisfactory, obviate the necessity
of grading and inspecting the same
grain in carloads; or in other words,
should the state grade and inspect
grain after title is passed from the
producer to the shipper?
8. If the producer and the dealer
agree on dockage, weights and grades,
should the state still grade and in
spect?
8. In what amount should storage
houses be bonded? basing the bond
of course, on capacity of warehouse
10. Who should be responsible for
warehouse employees? the warehouse
owners or the state?
II. What percentage of insurance
should bonded warehouse carry on
grain as compared with its actual
value?
II. How would you harmonic the
cost of sacks as between an elevator
receiving grain in bulk and a ware
house which receives it sacked?
10. Where there is only one ware
house company Cor individually at a
siding, should this company have the
right to refuse to store, thus forcing
a grower to sell or handle his grain
of the warehouse?
IA. Would it facilitate the, market
ing of grain and enhance the grow
ers' interests if all elevators and ware
houses came under the law?
Is. Is there any good reason why
he farmer should not ship his own
grain from storage warehouses and
wall himself of the maximum or ex-
)ort price?
Is. Should scales over which grain
S stored or sold be tested by the
tate?
II. If producer delivers, from day

land he, too, gave me quite little
news from home I'm on my way to
Italy again on technical business for
the air service, and expect to be in
in about two months, then
home, | hope, before many more
months. I'm just missing a chance to
go to a special army school of aero
nautical engineering at Paris, where
the latest and most advanced material
will be taught. 1t is designed for Of
ficers, but I was to be admitted by
a special dispensation. l appreciate
the compliment, but do not much re-
greet the lost opportunity, for it is
not likely the army would pay enough
to keep me in it and I'm not planning
to follow aviation now that the war
is over I've had an interesting ex-
perience and have made the acquaint-
ance of soldiers of all grades, from
privates in the guard house to the
major general chief of the air service.

ECONOMIZE-YES BUT LET
1T BE SENSIBLE ECONOMY

i There are many warped notions re-
Igarding the meaning of economy
]Some think that economy means
skimping land deprivation
the buying of cheap goods.
When applied to the buying and
using of foodstuffs there never was a
more grivous error, a graver mis-
take 1t is the worst kind of folly
to deprive oneself or family of pure,
wholesome foods for the sake of
lmoney-miserlines Such a method
is certain to result in impaired
health Food purity should be the
first consideration-then economy
This happy combination of purity
and economy are splendidly defined
in Calumet Baking Powder. Calumet
is absolutely pure in the can and in
the bakings-it contains only such In
gradients as have been officially APP
proved by the U. S. Food Authori-
ties Despite the fact that Calumet is
the purest. highest quality Baking
Powder procurab1e, it is moderate in
price.
In addition to this, Calumet affords
another opportunity for saving. 1t
possesses twice the Ieavening strength
of most powders-only half the usual
amount is required Again-Calumet
enables the housewife to practice
sensible economy - Calumet never
fails = it never allows bakeday loss
and waste of expensive baking ingre-
1ients.
Only by purchasing and using such
products can the housewife employ
economy of a truly beneficial nature.

to day. his crop of grain with the view
of selling it at market price wher
| delivery is completed, who, in this
case, owns the grain during the time
of delivery?
10. Should the elevator or ware.
house man ship grain, so delivered
out before. he became it's owner? OF
only after the same had been set
tiled for?
10. Should a warehouse storage re-
Iceipt be negotiable?
20. Should it contain the grade
land record of inspection, or should it
have the inspectors certificate at
ltached?
81. What is a reasonable fee for
inspecting a car of grain?
%. What is a reasonable fee for
inspecting a wagon load for immedi-
ate sale?
%. Should there be full and COM
plete laboratory for testing grain at
the University of Idaho?
a. If so, who should own and pay
for it, in view of the fact that there
is none there at the present time?
%. If it should be owned by the
state, and there being no provision
made for the payment, what would
you suggest?
26. What is a reasonable wage for
samplers and testers, not including
the laboratory force?
%. Should samplers and inspect
tors have government license, if
such licenses are issued upon show
ing Of proper qualifications?
20. Is a dealer entitled to profits
or percentage on gain arising from
dOckage. weighing or underg grading?
80. Is the grower entitle to COM

grain, such as barley, seeds and brok-
en- kernels, etc.?
81. Should the U. S. inspection Ger
ltificate follow car of grain to the
mill of final destination, whether in
1.-THE United States or Europe? Or
SHOULD the miller, dealer or exporter
be allowed to blend and mix regard
less of original inspection?
3d. Should the weight of a car of
wheat at point of original shipment
Iagree with the weight of the same
car at point of destination? If not,
who should bear the loss?
33. Are you inclined to the view
that Industrial development, CONNER
cial prosperity, and the influx of new
settlers and good citizenship in gen.

to increase the profits of the grower
to the maximum?

Mr.. Cannon, 1--WE would appreciate any

of course, that during the present

just grades, dockage and inspection.

This is probably a better showing

Methodism is asking it's Sunday
schools to raise one-eighth of the total
centenary quota. One cent per men,
Der per week will do this, centenary
leaders say. The total northwest
centenary quota is $2,665, 445, or
$533,089 per year for five years. Of
the $4,000 a year which the north
west Sunday schools are expected to
pledge before the close of the cen
tenary financial drive, more than
$4,000 is already pledged.
"It is interesting to note," said DR..
Wasser, "that the small Sunday

larger ones in Portland, Seattle and
Tacoma are still lacking"

We must not overlook the immediate
possibility of one of the large rigid diri-
sibles which have been used BY the Brit
ish navy in operations over the North Sea
and which have radius of action of over
5000 miles without landing, carrying
thirty to forty people, making this flight

airplane. We have authentic advice that
a German dirigibe flew from Jambol in
Bulgaria, to Khartum. in Egypt, on its
way to German East Africa, carrying TWEEN
ty-tive tons OF ammunition and supplies to
one of the German generals When over
khartum it received wireless orders to re-
turn, the general had SURRENDERED and
the return was made without landing. The
dirigibe had covered between three and
four thousand miles. With the practical
production of the non-inAammabfc gas,
helium, which has 90 per cent of the lift
ing power Of hydrogen, the building OF
large rigid dirigiblcs will increase, and we
may look forward to ships of this type as
large as zoo tons capacity, 1000 feet in
elgth. containing 100000 cubic feet Of
gas. with cruising radius which would
enable them to fly around the world with
out landing At the present time the Brit
ish navy has dirigbles Of seventy tons
which make a speed Of seventy Eight miles
