POTATOES AND GRAIN
SHIPPED OUT RAPIDLY

About As carloads of potatoes
have already been shipped from the
Wilder and Deer Flat districts to
market over the Caldwell Traction
company lines. 1t is believed that
within the next week the crop will
be moving at approximately its full
rate.
This years grain crop is also rap
idly moving. About Is carloads have
already been shipped from the same
With harvest in full swing It is ex-
pected that it will move more rapidly
in the future.
Something of the significance OF
these shipments may be gathered
from the fact that in 1913 the Cald-
we'll Traction lines handled exactly
20 cars of potatoes from the Wilder
and Deer Flat sections. This year
1900 iced cars have been ordered for
the same purpose.

Had Enviable Record.
Of all the engineer units which par
ticipated in the great war the End en-
gineers probably had the most en-
viable war record. They were taken
to the front June IL, where they
backed up the 9th marines at Chateau
Thierry when American forces won
their first signal victory of conse-
quence during the war.
No arrangements have been formu-
lated as yet for the reception of these
men when they return, but it is re-
garded as certain that some sort of
celebration will be held. Talk has
prevailed for some time of the neces-
sity of giving some welcoming dem
onstration for the many men who
have returned since the occasion of
the celebration which was so success
fully given here last spring shortly
after the arrival of the Caldwell mem
bers of Co. D of the 10th engineers.
Probably the welcome for the mem

lied to include all service men who

HAY SITUATION AND
LIVESTOCK PROBLEM
TO BE INVESTIGATED
Summary of Drouth Conditions Will
be Provided to Determine Stock
Which Must be Shipped.

Boise, July 28.-County agents in
livestock counties affected by the dry
weather are calling meetings of live
stock men and feed growers, with d
view to ascertaining how much hay
will be available and will be fed in
the several localities, SO that they may
know how much stock will be shipped
out of the state this season for pas
ture and range.
Three outlets are available for this
stock-the cut-over lands of Mich
igan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, the
pastures of Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas.
Missouri and Oklahoma. and the
ranges of Texas and New Mexico.
Arrangements have been made by
the university extension division, in
cooperation with other states and
with the federal government by which
stockmen can place their feeders in
this range and pasture by communi-
eating with their county agent or with
the exten sion division. The county
agent acts as a clearing house for his
county; the extension division acts
as clearing house for the state, and
fthe several states have clearing
house established at Billings. Mont,
through cooperation of the states re-
tlatlOn service, the animal nuSDdnuIy
division, the bureau of markets, the
| forestry service and the extension di-
visions.
Livestock Must Go.
Stockmen's estimates indicate that
$1,000 head of cattle and 100000 sheep
in excess of normal shipments will
have to be shipped out of the state
this fall if there is no rain. This ex-
cess is about 20 per cent.
Offers for actual purchase of TO-
600 head of cattle are in the hands of
the extension division, and rance and
pasture are available for half the stock
in the state, according to E. F. Rine-
hart field animal husbandman. Range
is available for 5000 cattle in New
Mexico and $4,000 in Texas, for sum
me and winter. at IS cents to $50
per month, Nebraska has pastures at
$1.25 month, with some hay at $40
Many pastures and feed lots are Of
fered
The promise is held out that live
stock so shipped will be returned free
of freight charge, as was done in the
case Of Texas livestock last wear.

water to farmers under the Pioneer,
the Nampa-M and the Settlers
and Farmers Union Ditch companies.
About $4,000 acres was involved. The
complaint under which the restrain
ing order was granted alleged that
there was no water available for con-
tinued provision to the users under
auxiliary contracts.
1t was only by cutting off the sup
Elemental farmers from the use OF
water that approximately $500 water
users under the Payette-Boise asso-
citation could be provided with suffi-
cient water to mature their crops, the
complaint alleged.
Action of the Payette- Boise Water
Users association in dismissing the
case is understood to have been par
TALLY influenced by the fact that users
under the Farmers Union canal had
received no water for more than a
week, and together with the Union
Ditch settlers would have been COM
pletely without water for the remain
der of the season had the restraining
order been allowed to stand. Consid-
cradle damage would have been done

Immediately after granting the in,
junction Judge Reddoch left for Cas-.
cade, and Judge Mccarthy admitted
the motion to dismiss to his court
Further action regarding the surplu:
water controversy is expected to come
before the federal court.
Removal of the restraining order
saved laroe sum of money to farm
ers under the Pioneer district, in ths
opinion of ]. Jester Jr., secretary. q
the Pioneer irrigation district. Whili

Surplus Water Involved.
The issue involved centers upon ;
court ruling as to what constitute
surplus water. The Payette-Bois'
Water Users association member
and attorneys hold that when water i
scarce the Payette-Boise users are en-
titled to the water. The opposite
view is held by the auxiliary user
and their attorneys, who contend tina
there can be no surplus water excep
that which runs through the Bois
river to the ocean in the spring, ant
which no one could possibly use
Storage water is not surplus water
they contend This phase of the con
troversy will be placed before tn
courts when the case comes up on 1t
merits.

from sections where opposition to the
bill was expected to be most acute
have Endorsed the bill. This includes
the New York chapter of the Ameri-
can Legion. Such action is under
stood to have considerably dampened
the ardor of several eastern congress
men who are opposed to the measure.
Gilbert Hogue, reclamation engineer

about week ago that it was his opin-
ion that in the event a large reclama-

Canyon would be among the first
projects in Idaho to be reclaimed.
Leaders of the reclamation movement
here urge that Caldwell should sup
port the Idaho Reclamation associa-
ton because this city stands to bene-
fit more than any other Idaho town
from the federal appropriations.

CASE WILL Be DECIDED
THIS WINTER ON MERIT

Monday, upon motion of the
plaintiffs Judge Charles P. NC
Carthy of Boise dismissed the in
junction which was granted in the
district court there Saturday by
Judge Charles F. Reddoch. and
which restrained reclamation Of
ficials from delivering Arrow
Rock project water to users ur1-
der the Pioneer and Nampa, Me-
ridian irrigation districts and the
Settlers and Farmers Union
ditch companies.
This action followed compromise
which was effected between the Boise
Payette Water Users association,
plaintiffs in the case, and the recla-
nation officials and water users under
auxiliary contracts, defendants. I'm
der the new provisions members OF
the Payette- Boise Water Users asso-
citation are assured water from the
normal flow of the Boise river for
this season sufficient to water their
stock after the supply of stored water
in the Arrow Rock and Deer Flat
storage reservoirs is exhausted.
10000 Feet Withheld.
Farmers under the other irrigation
districts are to continue the use OF
water until the storage supply is re-
duced 10 10000 acre feet, which is
being Withheld by the Boise-Payette
association for stock watering uses.
Users under the supplementary con-
tracts will obtain higher percentage
of water between the present time anS
that point when the stored supply is
reduced to 10000 acre feet to insure
that they obtain their share of the
total supply now available, it is un-
derstood.
Figured from the time when the
Boise river reaches its lowest summer
flow the Payette- Boise users will OBJ
tain SO per cent of the increase in the
natural flow of the river for stock
watering purposes. This arrangement
is to be effective only this year. II
was further agreed that the Payette.
Boise association would bring suit
against the reclamation officials some
time in September that the contro
versy regarding the Interpretation Of
surplus water may be clarified before
another situation similar to that ell
countered this summer arises.

THE DISMAL SWAMP FOR HIM

If had the right, I'd tie quite tight
A rope around Kaiser Bills neck.
I'd lead him out to the soldier boys,
And he sure would know what to
expect.
I'd make him kneel to the Ameri-
can flag
And kiss it again and again.
And also have him to apologize
To our brave young soldier men.
I'd drive him around for a week or
more,
With nothing to eat at all,
Just to show him the life of
soldier boy
Who answered his cOuntry's call,
To free themselves of villain like
him
Who is guilty of so much crime.
He has not only hand of steel,
But also a heart of iron.
Then I'd back him into the dismal
swamp,
AS the poor Americans were forced
to do.
For better his life than a million
more,
And bid him a last adieu.

On the twentieth OF June the
Crown Prince Of Austria was killed
by Serbian, and by the time one
short month had passed, Austria
had declared war on Serbia.
OF course this all happened in
1914, when not only all of us, but
all the children of France and Bel
GUM and England were happily
playing out of doors in the bright
days of early summer. Fathers,
brothers and friends were with
them, food was good and plentiful,
their home we're places Of safety
and warmth and love,-why should
not they be happy?
Then things began to change, and
all this became very different in a
very short time.
German soldiers began secretly
moving toward the French frontier;
Russian soldiers began moving
toward the Austrian-Hungarian
frontier, because Russia was on
the side of Serbia.
As war became more and more
threatening, England proposed on
the 9th of July that the nations
most interested, should meet to dis
cuss it and prevent further compli-
cations. Germany and Austria re-
fused all such suggestions. The
Tar of Russia also suggested that
the trouble between Austria and
Serbia be given to peace confer
ence n the Hague to solve, but
Germany refused to even notice
his suggestion.
1t was understood and officially
announced that Germany would
have great influence in bringing
about a mediation between Austria
and Russia, and Austria and Serbia,
or, in other words, could have
help them to make up" but
Germany paid no attention to such
announcements, although her chan
cellor at that time, urged that this
mediation be brought about
Still, Russia was not anxious to
fight and sent word on the 30th of
July, that If Austria would take
away the points in her ultimatum
to Serbia, which violated the high
est rights of that country, she, Russ
STA, would cease all her military
preparations. 1t was the German
foreign minister that made the re-
ply, saying that he considered it
impossible for Austria to accept
such proposal.
Even then, Russia sent a second
and more urgent proposal for a
meeting to talk over all the great
