IDAHO LEADS IN
BEAN PRODUCTION
STATE LEADS NORTHWEST IN
PRODUCTION OF BEANS WITH
S60,0O0 BUSHELS

That Idaho leads all of the north
western states in bean production and
had crop of 100000 bushels in 1918
is the statement made by a govern
ment report just issued Idaho has
been Coming to the front" as bean
producing state for several years and
it is believed that this seasons crop
will be the largest in the states his
tory Beans have been profitable
crop for number of years, especially
since the war began, when prices went
as high as 12 cents. There was a
profit in raising beans instead of sum-
mer fallowing before the war when
from 21b to 31a cents pound was the
prevailing prices. Bean growing here
started as a substitute for summer fall
low and spread until it has become
a leading industry in Latah county.
Some interesting facts about the 1918
bean crop of the United States are
brought out in a recent announce
ment by the department of agriculture.
The yield totaled 20,S1S,900 bushels,
grown on 2,050,00 acres, as against
1S,719,710 bushels on 2,126,720 acres
in 1917. The small white bean led
with nearly AZ per cent of the total
yield. The pinto bean came next with
liz per cent and the lima next with
nearly 10 per cent.
California is the big bean producing
state of the Union. Its crop last year
was 8,5S4,00 bushels, grown on $4,000
acres. Michigan comes second with
a crop of 1887, 900 bushels, grown on
543, 900 acres.
Idaho is the chief bean producing
state of the Pacific northwest. 1t
grew 100000 bushels last year on 43,-
900 acres. Three-fourths of it's yield
was the small white variety and ID per
cent the large white. Oregon on 49,
900 acres grew $4,000 bushels and
on 5000 acres $4,000 bu-
shells. Eighty-five per cent of the Ore
gon product was the small white va
riety and 10 per cent the red kidney,
while in washington 60 per cent ws,' .
small white and 80 per cent large
white.

MANY IMPROVEMENTS
At THE UNIVERSITY
REMODELING ADMINISTRATION
BUILDING-WELL DRILLING
STOPPED-BIG COAL BIN

Many changes and Improvements
are being made at the University of
Idaho preparatory to the opening of
school when the largest enrolment in
the history Of the school is expected.
The fact that many students who left
the school before completing their
work to enlist in army, navy, marines
and other departments of the great
war work, are returning to complete
their education and that every de-
partment is expecting more new
students, than ever before, leads to
the conclusion that record breaking
enrolment is almost a certainty.
The administration building is
being remodeled and some important
changes are being made in it. All of
the administrative offices are to be
installed in that part of the building
to the right of the main entrance and
the big hall on the first floor. The
presidents office will occupy the
northeast corner room of the building
on the ground floor and the engineer
ing office, which had this room, will
go to the room above.
The bursar's Office is to be re-
modelled and partitioned so that there
will be some privacy for the account
ants who have had to work in the
main office which is frequently
crowded with visitors and those on
business. The change will make for
greater efficiency in the work of this
department.
Bids are being asked for the con-
struction Of the new south wing to
the administration building. The
plans, drawn by Curtis Richardson,
the architect, call for wing that will
conform in general appearance with
the north wing and the remainder
of this elegant building. 1t is hoped
to have the new wing completed this
year. 1t will be used for class rooms
and for general school purposes as is |
the remainder of the building now in
use.
Well Work Stops.
The work of drilling the big 16-
inch well which is planned to go
down thousand feet or more, if nee
essary to secure a plentiful supply of
water for the heating plant and all
purposes on the campus, has been |
stopped. After going down 38 feet
through clay the big drill struck
quick sand that runs in as fast as it
can be pumped out. H. H. Quarels,
the contractor, who came from Boise
with the largest well drill ever seen
here, stopped work while the north
west was being searched by telegraph
for 16-inch casing but none has been
found. San Francisco is being tried
now and if it cannot be obtained there
the size of the hole will be reduced
to IL inches and work will be resum-
ed. The university has supply of
12-inch casing but does not want to
drill hole that small if the larger
casing can be secured.

WANT CONTROL
OF RAILROADS
LABOR UNIONS WOULD GUST
PRIVATE OWNERSHIP FROM
RAIL LINES.
TRIPART|TE OWNERSHIP
WOULD PUT POWER OF OPERA
TlON IN THE PUBLIC AND
UNION.
Western Newspaper Union News Service


Washington, Aug. 5.-Organized la
bOr has come out with the unequivOcal,
formal demand that private capital be
retired from the railroads. A tripar-
tite control, composed of the public,
the operating management and the en-
plOyes, is demanded instead. Addressed
to the American public and signed by
the engineers, the firemen, the con-
ductOrs and the American Federation
of Labor, a formal statement is issued
announcing this proposal, which will
be carried before Congress.
"It Marks" says the statement,
''the step by which organized labor
passed from demands for wage in
creases to demands that the system Of
profits in industry be overhauled."
This sentence sums up in a few
words the proposal of which there
have been hints and indications, but
which is now laid before the country
for the first time Everywhere in Of
ficial Washington it is recognized as
the most serious and far-reaching
proposition the country will be called
on to face.
Characterizing the proposal as ''la-
boris bill," it is put forth as a rene ly
for the high cost of living, because
the railroads are the key industry OF
the nation. 1t demands the genuine
cooperation and partnership based on
a real community of interest and par
ticipation in control" of which Presi-
dent Wilson spoke to Congress and
which the statement says has been
ignored by labor and the private own
ers of the railroads.
"We ASK" it says, ''that the rail-
roads of the United States. be vested
in the public; that those actually en-
gagged in conducting that industry, not
road offices and yards and out on the
railroad lines, shall take charge of this
service for the public"
Briefly, labor's plan demands:
That private capital be eliminated
from the railroads.
That the private owners receive for
them government bonds with fixed
interest return for every honest dollar
that they have invested"
That the tri-partite control, hereto
fore referred to, be established in cor
pOratiOnS which shall lease the roads
and in which the public, the operating
arrangements and labor shall be rep
resented equally.
That the public, the operators AMI
the wage earnerS shall equally share
all revenue in excess of the guarantee
to private capital, by granting to the
operators and the employees One-half
the savings which are expected to be
made by such a perfected Organiza-
ton and to the public the other half
as consumers, either by Increasing
service without adding costs or by re-
ducing costs.
''This role originates with labor"
says the statement, because, labor
happens to have firm organizations
through which it may become articu-
late"
The trainmen were not represented
in the statement because w. G. Lee,
president of the brotherhood, was out
of the city, but it was said that they
join in it.

The total number employed by the

Later the strikers were reinforced by
some thousands of workers who were
