WHEAT GROWERS TO
MARKET OWN CROP
ORGANIZATION OF WASHING
TON AND IDAHO FARMERS
is PLANNED

SPOKANE.-Plans are being com
pleted for the organization of the
wheat growers of Washington, Ore
gon and Idaho, into cooperative mark
citing associations. Separate organiza-
tions in each state are planned with
central non-profit exchange through
which all the wheat will be marketed.
The Washington committee is already
far advanced in it's work of organi-
cation and plans for the Idaho Unit
of the association have been approved
by the committee which is made up of
some of the best known wheat men
in this part of the state.
Two committees will be appointed,
one for northern and one for south
ern Idaho. On the northern commit
tee are H. J. Herman of Genesee,
chairman; R. R. Fluharty Of Culdesac,
secretary; J. S. Thompson, Moscow;
E. G. Fri, Ferdinand and George w.
Stevens, rGangeville. Dean Iddings
of the University of Idaho has ap-
pointed Howard T. Lewis, professor
of economics, as his nominee on the
organization committee of the Idaho
Wheat Growers Association.
''The form of organization is pure
ly cooperative and non-profit both
in principle and practice" says A. A.
Elmore, president of the Farmers
Union. 'We hope to improve our
own condition and at the same time
eliminate speculation in northwest
wheat. On the organization commit
tee are some of the biggest wheat
growers of the northwest. No matter
how big our farms we all get stung
in the long run on prices because we
depend entirely upon the speculator
for information on market prices
when his sole reason for existence is
the making of profit out of our
wheat"

COMMUNICATION IN THE

Rev. Charles MacCaughey, whose

all right in his meetings at Moscow
until he hit the Unitarians, and then
"the professors at the University of
Idaho began to holler." That putting
of what | said is very great mis-
take, and | desire to herewith cor
rect it.
| am not given to the use of such
words as "holler" and when / speak in
public, and nothing could be further
from my intention than to leave the
impression that the professors of the
university are Unitarians.
1t is true that some of the faculty
did express disapproval of DR.. Bull
gins sermons in a rather free man
ner, but | have never attempted to
make any wholesale Indictment of
the university on that account. Many
of the faculty members at Moscow
are members of our churches and the
president, DR.. Lindley, is man of the
highest and finest ideals,
Those who were present at ST.

member that they were all in a

.CONCRESSMEN SAVE
FOREST GRAZING
FRENCH AND SMITH OF IDAHO
TAKE PROMINENT PART IN
IMPORTANT WORK

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Through
the efforts of Congressman French
and Smith, of Idaho, Hayden of Ari-
zona and Hernandez of New Mexico,
the provision of the agricultural ap-
preparation bill, providing for wiping
out leases and permits for grazing
privileges at the beginning of the
fiscal year, 1921, on forest reserves,
was stricken from the bill
Congressman French pointed out
that there were thousands of persons
to whom permits had been granted,
who we're using the forest reserves
and paying to the government graz
ing fees that amounted last year to
more than $2,600,000.
He said that practically 10000 peo-
pie had permits from the government
for grazing cattle, horses, swine,
sheep and goats on the forest re-
serves; that Idaho stands first in the
list of sheep being grazed on forest
reserves, the total number being
1 1,758,877 head of sheep and permits
have been issued to 1903 persons.
He pointed out that Idaho stands
second in the number of horses graz
ed on forest reserves, the total num-
Der being 1874 last year, and that
Idaho stands fourth in the number of
cattle grazed on forest reserves, the
number for last year being 190,6O8.
He said that in Idaho alone more
than $500 permits have been issued
and most of these permits have 2 or
3 years within which to run.
He pointed out that it is unfair
to any business to violate a contract
upon which the business rests, and
that these permits, which were issued
FOR period Of five years, should not
oe allowed to be arbitrarily broken,
but should continue until the expira-

WELL PLEASED WITH HIS

One Of the best boosters in Latah
county is J. F. Papineau, who came
to Idaho from Lyon county, Mime
sofa, last September and purchased
the Tom Nagle farm of 80 acres and
BAT acres adjoining from H. H. Simp-
son. Although he paid $115 per acre,
and it was considered a big price, in
fact was about the best figure record
ed for Latah county farm land. he
could sell today for $175. He would
not take it. He was in Moscow Sat-
urday and said he was planning some
substantial improvements this sum
mer, among other things, being silos.
Mr.. Papineau has 81 head Of purebred
Shorthorns on his farm at the present
time, also purebred Chester White
hogs. He is finishing six head of the
cows and heifers for the coming big
Shorthorn purebred sale in Spokane
March when so bulls and 81 fe
males, all purebred, are to be sold at
auction by the northwest Shorthorn
breeders Association. In his old
home county Mr.. Papineau was the
leading auctloneer, and has the evi-
dence, IN the way of stock of sale
bills, to show for it. Some of his
sales there ran as high as $4,000
and $4,000. ''0O
So well does Mr.. Papineau like
Latah county that he is sending the
good news back to his old home nei-
ghbors, and through his efforts others
are coming. He is simply delighted
with Latah county, and being a prac-
tical farmer, and man of RESPONSE
bility, good word from him will do
US much good.

SOUTHERN IDAHO
MINE PROMISING
STUDENT IN THE UNIVERSITY
SCHOOL OF MINES EXPECTS
TO WORK THERE

In recent publication of the Salt
Lake Tribune an account was given of
Elmore mine near Mountain Home,
having struck high grade copper ore.
The strike was made on the 800 foot
level of the Elmore mine, situated in
the Boise-Hailey district gold belt
known as the old Volcano district,
Thirty-five miles northeast of Noun
tain Home.
According to Mr.. W. 0. Reuss, gen
eral manager of the Elmore mine, the
potentiability of this district is an un-
known quantity, but if surface indie
tions and depth development upon the
Elmore property are worth anything
in giving an accurate idea of what
may be revealed by extensive mining
operations the district should be in
the near future a great producer.
The geology of the district accord
ing to Mr.. Reuss is similar to that of
Butte, Montana. The main fissure
can be traced for distance of thirty
miles with a width varying from six
to forty feet wide, lies in the granite.
On the Elmore property, porphy in
trusion lies on the granite foot wall.
The ore found between the porphy-
ry intrusion and the granite hanging
wall in the form of quartz that comes
high grade silver copper values.
c. H. Moore, who was formerly
connected with this property and at
present is a mining student at the
University will leave shortly to re-
sumo his work with the Elmore peo-
pie and informs US that he believes
this will be the big strike in mining
operations this year.

JAS Hodge, who was No. 1 in the
Clearwater county draft, reached
Moscow, Saturday evening on his way
back to OrOflnO. He went to Camp
Lewis, September 10, 1917, and was
in France almost a year. He was on
his way for the first line trenches on
the morning Of the 18th when the
armistice was signed and says that
he is glad he went over. eff it were

went over on the Olympic, the sister

speed of this giant ship was wonder
full. There were 5000 soldier boys on
the ship over, and when asked if they
met sub, he said:

utes we had, and some of the boys
were really frightened. The big gongs
sounded the alarm, and in no time we
were in orderly formation on the up

1t proved to be floating spar from
some ship that had probably met it's
fate. This stick stuck out of the wa
ter about two feet, and looked to be
a sub periscope. 1t was so near our
ship, with its 5000 soldier boys, that
we expected to be blown out of the
water. We held our breath for the
few seconds that it was sighted be-
fore the gunners spotted it and we
realized we were safe"
Mr.. Hodge said they were conveyed
from the Atlantic coast out to the
ocean and then picked up by English
sub chasers and conveyed to the other
side, making the voyage over in seven
days. The return trip was made in
nine days, and the thought of subs
did not disturb anyone. The Ameri- |

there are just 246 on the list. 1t is

shows how general the disease was
