city.
About 10000 bass we're obtained.
very good specimens, about two men
es long. Mr.. johnson declared them
to be one of the incest, cleanest
punches of fish that he has ever seen,
there being in the whole lot only SIX
suckers and two sinners. At one spot
was found great quantity OF bull
heads, but these were not taken with
the bass, though SEPARATE catch may
be made of these for distribution IN
some places.
Today Warden Johnson expects to
work with force of four men IN Del
sol slough, from about eight to TOUR
o'clock. He expects to make q total
haul, by the time the work is com
pleted, of fully 100000 bass. Ii his
hopes are fulfilled, about 40 cans OF
1900 each, or 10000 in all, Will be
shipped to southern Idaho.
Tonight, he expects to send LOAD
to Lake Waha, where 10000 or 5O,ooo
will beplaced, thus stocking that lake
in fine shape and greatly adding to
its attractiveness as an outing ana
camping resort. These fish are the
genuine black bass, one of the best OF
fresh water game fish.

OF SIXTH
STREET is APPRECIATED

Persons having occasion to visit
the packing plant (the natural mar
ket for the livestock of this section)
and the university barns and livestock
department and college farm, apA
preciate the splendid graded Highway
on Sixth street The grading. has
been completed to the packing pant
and it is to be hard surfaced soon
The city did the grading and the high
way district will do the nar1 sur
facing. The road is used more by
farmers than town people, as live
stock of all kinds is delivered to the
packing plant and in the muddy sea-
son it has been impossible to reach
the plant with wagons at times The
arrangement by which the cry and
highway district cooperate is fair
one and is helping both the city and
the country. When the hard surface
is put on that road and on the con-
nection at Polk and D streets with
the hard surfaced road leading to the
northeast good connections with the
paved district will be completed ON
a number of leading thoroughfares.

BETTER HIGHWAYS
HELPING THE WEST
COMPLETION OF THE sPARK TO
PARK" HIGHWAY BRINGS
EAST AND WEST CLOSER

Washington-Th National Park
Service of the Department of Interior
makes an announcement of great in
Iterest, especially to the West, in
authorizing a statement that the new
Zion National Park in southwestern
Utah will be dedicated September Is,
less than month after the official
dedication of the National Park-to-
Park Highway at Denver, which took
place August 25. Stephen t, Mather
director of the National Park Service,
who officiated at the dedicatory ex-
ercises in Denver and then headed an
official party for swing around the
circle to fix the official route, pos
sibly will officiate at the Zion Park
dedication.
The dedication of this Park-to-Park
Highway, 4,7O0 miles in length, and
traversing nine western states, is OF
Importance in connection with the
nationwide road development pro-
gram which has been halted only by
lack of transportation for building
materials, and the shortage of labor.
Road building in the National Parks
has been given much and deserved at
tention by Federal authorities, and
with the approval Of authorities of
the states within which such parks
are located. The same is true of the
great forest reservations in the West
and Northwest. I.
The national pride and the national
interest both are developed through
the making accessible with mini
mum of effort and expense of the Ma
tional Parks over highways built
along modern lines. Already, as
result of the work done, and it has as
yet hardly been started, the East, the
North and the South are coming to
know and appreciate the West more
than ever. The people of he-differ
ent sections, once they are brought
to gether under happy auspices, them
selves see to it that national homo
yeneity is the result.

-PRUNE CROP GOOD.
(Kendrick Gazette)

County Agent Fletcher was in Ken
drick Monday on business. Through
Mr.. Fletcher's efforts a market was
found for all of the Jenkins Club
wheat raised on American ridge. A
premium of approximately rs cents
bushel was received for this grain,
which was purchased all over the
country for seed purposes. Mr.. Fletch-
er shipped one carload to Walla Walla
and had inquiries from all over the
Inland Empire for the wheat A
party in Weiser, Idaho wrote for a
carload but it could not be supplied
Mr. Fletcher was interested in hav-
ing as much of this seed as possible
placed in Latah county, as this is his
territory and he believes the seed is
so exceptionally fine that the farmers
of the county should be interested in
getting enough of it for at least
start. Walter Bigham Of American
ridge had over 5000 bushels of this
seed but through misunderstood
ing, most of it was sold to local
warehouse company and was not
saved for seed.
Farmers Are Cooperating
Walter Bigham Of American ridge
had a wonderful crop of wheat this
year. He secured over 5000 bushels
from his quarter section Of land Most
Of this was spring wheat, which
makes the yield even more remark
able as the spring grain wasn't as
heavy this season as usually is har-
vested in the Potlatch The evening
Of the day his threshing was finished

to the cooperative system of the
American ridge farmers. Walter said
he would have had to haul wheat all
fall if it were not for the fact that
The farmers of his ridge by helping
each other, keep the wheat hauled to
The elvator as fast as it is threshed.

LAND PLASTER HELPS
PRODUCTION OF PEAS

That land plaster, used extensively
in this country for alfalfa and clover,
is also great help in increasing the
production of peas is the statement
of James O'Connor, one of the pio-
neers in pea growing in this section
Mr. O'Connor said: "My son George
had four acres of land on which he
tried this land plaster as he had
enough of it left to cover that much.
He had the land in peas and he got
% sacks per acre, or about double
the average yield. He is enthusiastic
over land plaster for peas" Mr..
O'Connor sold his farm last year to
T. H. Rogers, for $3.50 and Mr.. Rog-
ers has just sold it for $3.50 and keeps
the crops Mr. O'Connor says that
Mr.. Rogers wheat crop on land that
had grown peas, averaged so bushels
per acre, except one corner, on a high
hill where the soil was rather poor,
and this went 46 bushels per acre.

commissioner of immigration, labor
and statistics, spoke at the CONNER
cial club meeting yesterday. Presi-
dent Bevis accused Mr.. Barber of
leaving Lewiston off the map on one

not done so as he felt that Lewiston
is one of the most desirable places in
the state.
Mr.. Barber said that he would like
to speak a few words with reference
to several topics which he considered
of vast Importance to this community
discussed. First, he said, the educa-
the greatest assets in drawing tie
right kind of people to the state. That
is something that should not be over
looked Second in order, he referred
to the Lewiston hill highway and
drive and the scenic wonder of this
valley He said he came down that
highway about two months ago and
felt that it was about the finest scene
he had ever looked upon.
'This morning | came down from
the Craig mountain and | think it
would do your citizens and your
teachers good to drive over the high
ways, in that great country and
through the agricultural Districts he
said
''It would give them a better idea of
what a vast amount of resources you
have back of you Third, your Live
stock show. | know of nothing that
has advertised your country more
than that and which will place it on
a permanent and substantial basis,
and which will support your own
business and your own interest.
Fourth, the reclamation meeting at
Seattle. l think the reclamation of
your arid lands is one of the most
phases of development |
work in question at this time. We are
making a special effort through the |

leal of my time to this now; it is a |
hing of great prominence. The ad-
ands and clearing and developing the
stump lands are unquestioned. While |

ion is completed the parties will have
