FALL FLOWING

The value of fall blowing in re-
lation to grain crops has been proven
so many times that it should be ac-
cepted as a TACT. Nevertheless, hun
dreds of acres OF land were spring
plowed on the North Side last var
and seeded to wheat While no nea-
sure of the crop was obtained it is
safe to say that the fell plowed land
yielded much higher than the land
ploweG in the spring. III addition
much of the land plowed IN the
spring was seeded so late that the
crop was practically failure.
1t is time now to .cck ahead to
next years crop. If alfalfa is to be
broken up it should be plowed now
even though the fall pasture is sac
rti1cG The loss in pasture Will be
rt'hrl ed in the increase crop due
u the plowing under the green alfal-
ia which is a rapid way of increasing
humus and soil fertility in this sec
tion. All stubble land should be
plowed and left without working
down until spring. In the spring
grain can be seeded from two to
three weeks earlier on fall plowed
land because it is ready to go on
early The time element is very i'm
portant in this section where a wheat
crop is made in from ninety to one
hundred and twenty days.
The most important factor to be
considered is moisture Fall plowed
land will retain much moisture that
would otherwise run off Irrigation
authorities throughout the northwest
are predicting a probable short wat
er year in 1920. Every farmer on
the tract should take advantage OF
the season and save all available
moisture by fall plowing. tombstone

and one of the best farmers here.
says he has most OF his plowing done
now He states that the good yields
he makes are largely due to fall
plowing.

ANOTHER ELECTION TO BE
HELD NOVEMBER 10TH

At IS pecial meeting of the city
council held Tuesday an ordinance
was enacted calling for an election
to be held on Monday, November
18th. to determine whether the city
shall issue bonds to the extent Of
$4,000 to purchase necessary equip
ment for the fire department. and
bonds to the extent of $4,000 to pay
for grading and other street i'm
provements The full text of the
ordinance is printed in this issue OF
The Times.
Both of these enterprises are very
necessary. and there is no reason why
the bond issues should not carry un-
animously.

OTHER STATES INVESTIGATING
IDAHO EDUCATION OF THRIFT

Because of the new emphasis
which is to be placed upon thrift
education in the schools OF the coun-
try Governor Calkins OF the Twelfth
Federal Reserve District called to-
gether for conference in Sacra-
mento and San Francisco, the state
superintendents of public instruction
of the state in the Twelfth Reserve
District. Three days, September 80.
and October 1st and End, we're de-
voted 10 the problems of systemati-
zatiOn OF the teaching of thrift in
the schools. Each state superintend-
ent was asked TO report on the work
being done in his respective state;
at once it became apparent that while
the other states in the Twelfth Re-
serve District were making earnest
but desultory efforts TO teach thrift
in the schools, Idaho was the only
state that had definite and sys-
tematic plan which had not only been
worked out in advance but had been
put into operation throughout the
state.
AS a result Miss Ethel E. Redfeld
sperintendent of public instruction,
was asked to explain in detail the
Idaho plan in general as well as all
OF the special features embodied in
it, All of the Representatives were
so much interested in the plan as ex-
planned to them that they asked for
a complete set of the instructions
and documents used in connection
with the Idaho plan. The state OF
Washington which has been trying
to give special emphasis to thrift in
struction i'll the schools as a result
Of the conference reqested Miss Red
field to come to Seattle on October
29th and explain TO the state teach
er's association at that time all OF
the details of the Idaho plan.

SCHOOL BONDS SOLD

At a meeting of the board OF
trustees of Independent District No
33 last Friday evening, the $l14.o0O
bond issue Of this district was sold
to the state OF Idaho. The bonds
we're purchased at their par value
and draw five per cent interest. 1t
is said that that portion Of the mon
ey not used by the district this fall
will not begin drawing interest until
the district actually draws on the
state for the money.
Earlier in the summer deal was
practically made with private con-
Germ for the sale of these bonds, it
appearing that the state wes not able
to bid on them, but later the bid
was forthcoming, and at 2 lower rate
of interest than any private company
could offer, so the states bid was ac-
cepted.
