CALLS FOR BIDS ON
CLEARWATER HIGHWAY
BIDS TO BE RECEIVED UP TO
SATURDAY FOR CONSTRUCT
ING ROAD NEAR GREER

The department of Public Works
will receive bids on February 28
1920, for the construction of 8.4 miles
of the Clearwater highway. This
road runs between Greer and Fraser
clearwater county, and traverses
some OF the toughest country to be
found anywhere in the state. Never
theless, careful location has kept the
cost down to figures which is certain
ly not excessive, and the quantities
are remarkably low for mountainous
country.
No country presents more difficult
problems to the highway engineer
than the mountains of northern Ida
no. The Nez Perce and Clearwater
highways both serve a fertile country
which lacks only proper transporta-
tlon facilities for its full development.
The Nez Perce highway runs through
four canyons, the Little Big" the
MITCHELL" the Maggie" and Law
yers Canyon" The Clearwater high
way has to climb Greer hill, yet on
both roads the maximum grade has
been kept down to the standard 5
per cent prescribed by the bureau of
public roads for all FEDERAL aid pro-
Jects. Both roads wind up and around
the hills, keeping to minimum radi-
us OF 100 feet for all curves.
1t is expected that a large number
of bids Will be received for this con
tract, as conditions are very favor
able for speedy completion of the
work. While prices for both labor
and material, are higher than thew
We're a few years ago, the nature Of
the work is such that it can be handI-
ed very economically and the contract
should he awarded at reasonable
figures.

DIVIDENDS DECLARED RECENT
LY SHOW WHY RETAIL
PRICES ARE HIGH

BOSTON.-The reason why shirts
and other comon fabrics have been
! costing from two to three times as
much as in prewar times, suavily at
tributed to Increased labor and other
production COSTS" may be explained
lin large measure by the huge quart
erly dividends just declared by New
England cotton mill corporations.
Quarterly dividens running as
high as 20 per cent or 80 per cent
a year have been voted by boards of
directors to stockholders and while
government investigators and other
seekers for facts connected with the
high cost of wearing clothes have
been cunning after retailers, the fab
ric producers have been quietly "get-
ting theirs" the while production
costs has been explained away as
above.
Dividend 20 Per Cent.
One concern, the King Philip mills
of Fall River, Mass, in addition to
a quarterly dividend of 5 per cent, or
20 per cent year-has declared an
extra dividend of so per cent, bring
ing the rate upon it's capital stock to
70 per cent for the year.
Thirty-nine Fall River cotton mill
corporations have this week declared
quarterly dividends of $2,385, 1880
The quarterly dividends range from
l 1-2 per cent to 20 per cent and
average for the SO concerns 7.73
plus per cent, or about 27 per cent
a year.
These dividends which smashed all
records for high profits started re-
tailers wondering when the govern
ment's calcium lights would be turn
ed off their establishments and di-
rected toward the King Philip mills
corporation, with its per cent quar-
terly and 80 per cent extra divi-
dends; the Cornell mills corporation
with its 20 per cent quarterly divi-
dend, and others whose earnings
have broken records.
Ii It was not for greatly increas-
ed volume of business MANY retail
ers would be bankrupt, said one re-
taller today. "When the government
tackles the retailers it attacks pro-
fiteering from the wrong end. This is
a sellers market and today we ap-
proach Mr.. Manufacturer with our
hats in our hands,"

ADOPTS
MOSCOW METHODS
"THE TRUTH" TO BE PRESENT.
ED BY HOME DRAMA CLUB
TUESDAY NIGHT

The local Drama Club read will
satisfaction a news-story in the
| Spokesman Review of last Friday tC
the effect that the Drama Club Of
Spokane is going to adopt the Mos
COW method of presenting reading re-
hearsals of standard modern plays as
convenient means of supplying
Theatrical entertainment to its com
munity. The Drama Club also well
comes the opportunity Of exhibiting
a sample of it's work on Tuesday
night, in it's production of "The
TRUTH" to the extension workers
from various parts of the state who
will be visiting at the University
during the week.
"The Truth" is the first of a series
of plays dealing with American home
life by American playwrights which
the Club vii produce during the next
two months. This will be followed by
"Why Marry" discussion of the
too prevalent institution of divorce
humerour, however, in it's treatment;
and "Her Own, Money" which settles
the question as to who should con-
troll the payroll, the wife or the hus-
band.
Clyde Fitch, the author Of "The
TRUTH" is considered one of the best
American dramatists. OF his long
list of works, many of which are
translations of foreign plays, "The
Truth" has been selected as most
representative of his studies of
American life. His interest appears
divided between his leading charact-
er, Becky, who was so well played in
this country by Grace George, and
the idea which traces the evolution
of fib. It may have been a white
one to start with, but it ends as
black as night. IF you can inculcate
an idea in your play" wrote Fitch,
$50 much the better for your play,
and for you and for your audience
Fitch also knows his audience well
enough to end his play happily.

Friday afternoon, DR.. V. M. Gil
christ gave a talk on her work
abroad at the Historical Club. She
spoke interestingly of the trip across
and of her impressions of London
and Paris. The children of the refu-
gees and the French children seemed
greatly undernourished, many of
Them peing afflicted with ricke1s and
a large percentage suffering from
tuberculosis. During an epidemic of
influenza the undernourished refu
gees seemed to escape when the bet
ter fed French people succumbed.
DR.. Gilchrist told of the celebra-
tion of the signing of the armistice,
which lasted Tor days in France.
Tie French people are divided in
four classes.
Miss Amy Kelly of the home eco
nomlcs department. OF the University
gave an instructive address on the
extension work for the women of
Idaho. The success of the agriculture
OF the state depends on good condi-
tions in the home. Agriculture is i'm
portant for it produces the raw ma
terial that is Jne basis of all other
occupations.
The home job is the broadest of
all IabOrs for it's branches Of work
covers many departments. One of the
reasons that the rural life should
be brought to its best development,
is that 1t is the normal place tor the
rearing of children.
There are 18 women in the extern
sion work OF Idaho.
Miss Kelly stated that those who
live nearest our great university
often fail to appreciate its advant-
ages. How often that is true. Peo-
pie come many miles to attend
Farmers and Housekeepers' week,
while those within a few miles Of
Moscow often fail to attend or take
any interest in the splendid dem
,nstrations given at their very door.

PLAN TO SHORTEN
GRAZING SEASON
SEASON TO BE REDUCED BY
STARTING STOCK ON RANGES
LATER IN SPRING

WASHINGTON, D. C. - Early
spring grazing on western ranges
has so materially reduced the carry
ing capacity and forage resources
that the forest service, United States
department of agriculture, has found
it necessary on many of the national
forests to shorten the present graz
ing season from two to four weeks
This cut will be put into effect this
spring.
"It is the purpose of the forest
SERVICE" states an official in charge
of grazing, "to place the livestock
industry on the national forests on a
substantial, permanent basis. To do
this it is necessary to produce a max
imum cover of vegetation on all
ranges. The first precaution is to
avoid too early grazing. Every stock
man interested in his business knows
that forage plants cannot be grazed
the instant they begin to show above
the ground. Such early spring use
of the range not only decreases the
density and luxuriance of plant
growth, but also reduces the carrying
capacity and the fertility of the soil,
and if continued, ultimately results
in waste range.
s'Studies carried on at the Great
Basin Experiment station in Utah
have proved that where plants are
continually cut back or cropped, the
root system loses it's vitality and the
plant soon dies. On some Of the ma
tional forest ranges, which are grazed
early and heavily, the forage plants
are showing similar signs of serious
damage, and will rapidly go from bad
to worse if remedial measures are not
put in force. The old grasses, with
their root systems weakened by re-
peated cropping, are almost extermin
ated and are being replaced by worth
less weeds. Erosion of the soil has
also started in many places and
threatens serious damage. Expert
nents have shown that off a ten
acre tract, heavily pvergrazed, as
much as 25 tons Of earth and rock
lave frequently been washed down
after few minutes of heavy rains.
These are some of the things which
ollow in the wake of too early use
# the range and from overgrazing.
"A grazing season that starts later
n the spring, thus giving the forage |
lants chance to develop, and more +
areful management Of the range,
vill do much toward bettering and
ventually eliminating such condi-
iOns.'

"The best thing they could do is to
swear out a warrant for my arrest
and try to prosecute" he said. 1T

for the people, for we would then !
