Prizes at Exhibition at
Nampa in January

Boise, Idaho, August 9-'This
year the Idaho Seed Growers associa
tion is offering $500 in premiums TO
the winners at the seed show to be
held at Nampa in January" says an
announcement by c. b. Allison, as
sistant field agronomist of the Uni
versity of Idaho extension division.
''Boost the pure seed industry in
Idaho is the slogan adopted by the
association. Last year every section
of the state, north, east south and
west, was represented at the seed
entries. with the crop outlook and
the. interest which is apparent, this
year, the entries should far exceed
that number.
"Materials Idoflected at the right
time will win prizes. Sheaf bundles
are always necessary to make an eX-
hibit of this nature complete. Bundles
of the choicest crops Of all kinds
should be gathered and preserved for
the exhibition. Last year 70 per cent
of the premiums on sheaf bundles were
won by northern Idaho counties
''The times for gathering sheaves of
the different crops vary. Glover
should be collected when in blossom.
alfalfa when just beginning to bloom
and timothy and other grasses when
the heads are nearly ripe. The sam
pies should be healthy. leafy and tall

moist and then hung with top down III
! a cool dark room until fair time.
! Grain sheaves of wheat, oats, bar
| ley and rye should have well filled
ripe, uniform heads. The leaves
! should be stripped from the stalks
before too dry and brittle and the
stalks tied into. four inch bundles
Preserve as noted above.
"Threshed grain at the last seet
show excelled any sample the judges
ever had seen. All kernels should be
plump. uniform and of a bright, live
color. They should be free from
smut or other diseases, such as blacf
tip, which is recognized by a blacf
germ end.
Zone of the largest single exhibits
this fall will be that of corn. Corr
shows previous to the seed show viii
give many opportunities to select
prize winning samples.
Large premiums will also bt
awarded on potatoes. particularly th'
two varieties which have made thu
potato industry in Idaho; namely, th'
Melted Gem and Idaho Rural.
"The seed show is free for all ant
samples collected at the right tim'
! and cared for will win"

VISITED BY OLD FRIENDS
Boyhood Chums Of Il. 8. and III. T.
Sweet, Spent Few Days Here


- Sweet, Spent Few Days Here
Il. s.. and ii. Il. Sweet were pleas
antly surprised this week when friends
of their boyhood days dropped In upon
them from their present. homes at
Chicago. The visitors were DIR. and
Mrs II. G. Knapp and Mr.. and Mrs.
Walter V. Parker of Chicago, and
they arrived here by automobile late
last Saturday afternoon from Lewis
ton. Sunday and Monday was spent
with the Sweet families and a number
of other families with whom the Wis
itors were acquainted years ago back
In Iowa. On Monday afternoon sort
of reunion was held at the Il. 8. Sweet
farm In the Tolo section, which was
attended by large number Of Iowa
people. A picnic dinner was served
in the afternoon and the visit was
very much enjoyed by all.
On Tuesday the Windy City resi-
dents departed on their journey to-
ward San Diego, California. expecting
to go via Seattle. They viii visit for
time in California and contemplate
returning to their Chicago homes by
rail. The gentlemen in the party
stated they had enjoyed the trip and
the outdoor life and also stated they
had not seen anything in the way OF
crops since they left the state Of Iowa
that could compare with those or
Camas Prairie.

except the candidates and a few of
their immediate supporters.
"Over in Kansas at the same time
they had a primary election under

n tremendous vote. the successful
candidate receiving 10000 majority
Does any one have any doubt as to
which system more nearly records
the views of the average voter or the
people at large?
Both the democratic and republi-
can parties joined in the repeal of our
primary law. The democratic party
will undoubtedly acknowledge the err
ror of Judgment and insist upon
restoration OF the primary. The re-
publican party should do the same
thing. If ii does not do so it will
lose the legislature in my judgment
and probably the state ticket Tt is
not only. therefore. a matter OF jus
tice to the people of the state, but
n matter of political expediency that
the party declare itself in favor of
the primary. Those who are anxious
about party integrity need not be
uneasy. A primary law can be drawn
which is real primary law and yet
protect the party integrity. Besides,
ii does not do very much good to have
party integrity If you do not have
any votes
Must Restore Primary
"The progressive liberal vote of the
country holds the balance of power
/ in every state practically in the I'm
/ ion north of the Mason Dixon line
i Both the candidates for president un
/ derstand this and are wisely court
ing This vote. But we, in Idaho, viii
not have much chance to appeal Il
the progressive or liberal vote Of the
state if we insist on taking the mos
reactionary step with reference t.
elections which has been taken b!
any state that I know Of. Not onl!
