UNCLE SAM Is SLOW
MAKING DELIVERIES
BUT POSTOFFICE EXPECTS
FIRST SHIPMENT OF
GROCERIES SOON.

No deliveries have vet been OBJ
tanned of the postoffice grocery store
order which local people have placed
with the government. Three orders
have been made and the shipments Of
the first two are daily expected.
Postmaster Ford gave it as his opin-
ion that the railroad tieup in San
francisco NAV account in some meas
ure for the dilatory manner in hand
ling the orders. But some delay is hc
lieved unavoidable in lieu of the enor-
nous number of such orders which
came into the San Francisco depot
shortly after the army food was placed
on sale.
Serious congested conditions arr b.,
lieved to prevail there which make it
impossible to give orders prompt at
tHnton. Return cards acknowledging
the receipt of local orders were mailt /
from San Francisco August 26 and the
shipments are daily expected S les
of government stuff have not ho0-
brisk this week but some orders conz
tinue to come in. Only five of the
articles allotted to the local office for
disposition have been entirely sold
out. Of the others there still remains
considerable quantity which may be
purchased at the extraordinarily low
prices offered bv Uncle Sam.
Of the canned goods only tomatoes
and string beans the latter in two
pound sizes have been exhausted. A
considerable amount of bacon is still
on hand with plenty of practically
everything with the exception Of
canned cherries and pepper These
two articles were allotted only in small
amounts and the demand has practic-
ally exhausted them. 1t is expected
that the arrival of the first shipment
from San Francisco will materially
stimulate sales.

Ernie Wells was the determining fac
tor in the exhibition. Only three
safeties were melted by the locals. Cor
nell scored once, following his only
bingle after Snapp juggled Siffert's
the fourth inning.
In the same frame, Boise scored
twice. Hendon missed Dutch" Sher-
mans hard fly and the play concluded
with Dutch resting on second. He
scored on Snaps single. Preceding
this play, Chapman had been hit by a
pitched ball and the latter scored
when Case lifted sacrifice fly.
To Doc Joyner, the red headed
southpaw from Nampa, must be given
credit for pitching nice game He
held the Boiseites to five bingles, all
well scattered. Runs were the prod
uct of errors followed by timely swats
Small Crowd.
The crowd was small, only $50 peo-
pie attending. This session marked
the close of the season for both the
locals and Boise and it is not expected
that more games will be staged until
next spring While Boise lost con-
sistently to Boise during the season,
more through baceball luck than any
superiority possessed by the capital
city aggregation. the season has not
been a poor one. Nampa and other
crack aggregations in this neck of the
woods fell under the onslaught of
Winnings "Kids" and the locals have
the satisfaction of giving Burley the
best game of the five game series
played in the section of their barn
storming tour.
In Johnson, Vining uncovered a
capable youngster who, with another
season, would develop into consist
ant winner for the locals. All he re-
quires is experience with little work
with a good consistent catcher t.
coach him. What the team needs is
a couple of hard hitting outfielders
and a capable catcher. Another sea
son, with these additions, should give
Caldwell winning combination.

demands upon available cars but early
In the season, before the fruit began
to move, no more cars were supplied
than at present.
Early season provision to the capac .
iity OF the Caldwell Traction lines to
handle the cars would have obviated
the serious situation, it is contended
NO relief is in sight. Many farmers
nave already conceded that their crop
is total loss and are making no eff
fort to handle it. Losses threaten to
increase with the possibility of sus-
tanning practically 100000 damages
as a result of the car shortage.
Fear is expressed that this seasons

FARMERS LOSE
LARGE AMOUNT
Car Shortage Causes Serious
Financial Setback To Caldwell
Potato Growers

Inability to obtain refrigerator cars
has already cost the districts tributary
to Caldwell about $4,000, according
to local authorities who have followed
the situation closely. About one-half
of the potatoes which were to have
been delivered on contract during
August are still awaiting shipment.
Prices have fallen materially and buy
ers are understood to be leaving the
field.
Thepresent loss, conservativelyesti-
mated at $l50,000, based on differences
in market quotations of the present
and that which held when the crop
was ready to move, will undoubtedly
be greatly exceeded through inability
to get the potatoes on the market at
any price. Cars have been coming in
slowly. With promises of 80 for each
day, an average of nine have been de-
livered.
Icing Facilities Short.
Lack of icing facilities at Nampa
where the cars are filled both coming
and going, is now given as the reason
for inability to get more than the num-
Der now being delivered. This situa-
ton is by no means new, however, but
was fully understood by. growers and
local railroad officials early in the
season. Fruit is now making large

COSTS BURLINGTON MAN
$l.13 FOR III CENT TAX
A. p. Stockwell, Who Had $3.50 in the
Bank Must Part With $1.13 Which
III Includes Penalty and Interest.

There is one farmer who does not
have much use for the moneys and
credits law. He is A. P. Stockwell, old
time farmer from Burlington.
When the assessor came around last
spring, he asked Mr.. Stockwell how
much money he had in the bank. Mr..
Stockwell informed him that he had
about five dollars, but on looking it up
later, found that he had just $500.
The moneys and credits tax on this
amount was II cents, but Mr.. Stock
well says he does not remember of
having received any notice thereof.
If he did, it must have been overlook
ed. A short time ago, he sent money
to Minot to pay his taxes, but evident
ly did not include the II cents.
He received notice from the sheriff
informing him that he owes $1.13 for
the $4.90 he had in the bank This
includes the original IL cents tax, 2
cents penalty and $1.00 sheriff's fee.
Mr.. Stockwell has written out check
for $1.13 and has informed the sheriff
that if he wants the money he will
have to come to his home for it.

vention adopted aL resolution allow ing the women to be admitted Many women oppose the change believing their work should be confined to the individual churches. Many men op- pose their admission on the ground that the membership of the conven- tion already is too large and should be divided
 A call for an al-American Raptist convention at an early date proba bly will be advocated by the southern Baptists in view of the widespread agitation on the question of unitinc, the various denominations and feder- ating the churches. The opinion among some southern Baptists is that they cannot conscientiously enter in to any such movement and that some authoritative body of all branches of the denomination should be consti tuted to pass upon the question and set forth the Baptist view.
 Final steps toward the establish ment of a negro Baptist theological seminary, undertaken by joint com mission from southern, northern and negro Baptist conventions are expect ed to be taken at the coming sessions. Memphis, Tenn, in all proba bility. will be the location of the proposed seminary and the initial cost probably will be not less than s150,0Oo.
 Indications are that a large num- Der of churches of Missouri will with draw from the northern convention and unite with the southern at the coming sessions. There has been a division among the Baptists of Mis- souri where some churches belong to the northern and some to the southern convention. A movement has been on foot for some time with a view to having all belong to one convention and the trend of the movement has been toward the southern convention, with which, 1t is claimed, most of the churches have been the closer touch.
 The interests of the country church. es will be given careful consideration this year.
 Among the speakers will be men who have served in the great war. Dr. George W. Truett, of Dallas, Texas; Dr Henry A. Porter, of Atlan- ta; Dr. M F. Dodd, of Shreveport. La, as well as large number of men who have been in service in trench es and with the Young Mems Chris tian associa ton, will be present Re- tween o,OUO ana o,oOO people are ex- pected to attend the sessions
 Dr. J. E. Gambrell, of Fort Worth Texas, it is expected, will be re-elect- ed president, and Dr. Flight c. Moore, of Nashville Tenn, reelected as one of the secretaries. Another secretary in place of the late Dr. Oliver F, Gregory will be elected. Dr. Gam hre1l, who was a Confederate soldier and served on the staff of General Robert F. Lee, will preside and ad- dress the opening session.

Southern Baptists' Convention
 Scores Policies

Atlanta, Ga, May 16.---At the annu- al Southern Baptist Convention, meet ing here May 14 to 19, women for the first time will be admitted as dele gates on an equality with men and busy sessions are indicated.
 Southern Baptists were greatly dis pleased at the ruling of the war de- partment at Washington in connec- ton with camp pastors, feeling with other evangelical denomination that they were discriminated against and it is expected the convention will make known it's attitude toward the policy of the war department.
 Much interest is being manifested by the denomination as to the out come of the drive for missions under taken after the convention at Hot Springs, Ark, last year authorized it's boards to plan work on a basis of $2,- 50O00O for the present year-S1, 0OO, 900 for home missions and $1,5O0, 900 for foreign missions. That is 75 per cent greater than the sum raised last year Leading ministers and laNmeh throughout the south have been &C., tive, and the outlook is that the mon ey will have been raised when the convention meets.
 The admission of women as dele- gates on an equality with men Is De- ing watched with interest For more than 75 years the convention mas maintained the policy that woman shou1d bc silent in the churches when men were present. Last years con-
