Boise. Idaho This year the Idaho
Seed Growers Association Is orterng
$500 in premiums TO the winners at

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 show at
Pocatello. There were 91S entries.
With the crop outlook and the interest
which is apparent this year, the en-
tries should far exceed that number.
Materials collected at the right time
will win prizes. Sheaf bundles are all
ways necessary to make an exhibit Of
this nature complete. Bundles Of the
choicest crops of all kinds should be
gathered and preserved for the exhibit
ton. Last year IS per cent Of the pre-
miuns on sheaf bundles were won by
northern Idaho counties
"The times for gathering sheafs of
the different crops vary. Clover should
be collected when in blossom. alfalfa
when just beginning to bloom and
timothy and other grasses when the
heads are nearly ripe. The samples
should be healthy, leafy and tall with
medium sized stems; cured slowly by
spreading out in a rather dark room;
tied with strong cord or ribbon in
four inch bundles when n trifie moist
then hung with the top down in
cool. dark room until fair time.
Grain sheaves Of wheat. oats, barley
and rye should have wellfilled, ripe,
uniform heads. The leaves should be
stripped from the stalk before too dry
and brittle and the stalks tied into
four inch bundles. Preserve as noted
above
"Threshed grain at the last seed show
excelled any sample the judges had
ever seen. All kernels should be plump,
uniform and Of bright. live color. They
should be free from smut or other
diseases. such as black tip, which is
by a black germ end.

SHOT WHILE RESISTING ARREST

George and William Miller, two
brothers living at Gooding, got into
trouble with the officers near Carey
Tuesday The Miller boys were eharg-
ed with transporting booze and as they
came along the road near Carey the
officers who were watching for them
commanded them TO halt. Instead, the
Miller boys speeded up their car and
ran past the officers who thereupon
shot at the rear Of the Miller car with
a sawed off shot gun with the intention
of puncturing the rear tires and the
gas tank. One of the shots went thru
the car and also through George MIL
Ter. who was driving the car George
Miller fell out of the car and the car
ran to the side OF the road and stop
ped. It is reported that VIM Miller
then held off the officers with gun
while he smashed several sacks OF bot
ties filled with whiskey. This Whis-
KEY is supposed to be regular whiskey
a shipment from Canada. There seems
TO be a regular whiskey trail INTO
Canada from this section.

CHANGE YOUR TIME PIECES

At. the meeting Of the village board
Tuesday evening n resolution was
passed in response to Il petition ex-
/ tensively signed by our citizens,
authorizing a change of time from
Pacific to Mountain time. The change
+ TO be made Monday morning, Sept. 13.
at six O'Clock. This puts Shoshone In
ldine with practically all the surround
ing territory on the standard time
proposition.
Pacific time. which we are now using,
is calculated from the meridian of
Portland. This means that when the
sun time at Portland marks the noon
hour. or - o'clock. our clocks also In
dicate the same hour But as Portland
is west Of MS our real time is about 20
minutes later than our time pieces
indicate.
Mountain time is calculated from the
Denver meridian. which being east OF
rs our time pieces will show u, noon,
when in fact it is noon on the Denver
meridian and will not be noon, sun
time. here until 40 minutes later. Our
time will be about 40 minutes faster
than real, or sun time. To make the
change next Monday morning you will
set your clock ahead just one hour.
Bear i'm mind that until it is auth
orized to do so the o. s. L. will con-
tinue on the Portland time and will be
lust one hour later than the time the
Shoshone clocks will show.
The necessity for establishing stand
ard time arose some 35 years ago from
the railroads establishing great union
denots in the large cities. Prior to that
time each railroad used the time OF the
civ in which its headquarters We're
established. This resulted in great
confusion. For example. ut st. Louis
the Missouri Pacific advertised st.
T.ouis time for all of its trains. Roads
from Cincinniti and Chicago and Kan
sas CITY used their own time out OF 81
T.ouis union station. \ Santa re
{. p. 80. a Big -Four and Mo. Paclnc
train each advertised to leave 81
o,,is union station at the same hour
would vary as much as an hour IN
actt,aI time of starting. As matter OF
convenience to themselves the railroads
established standard time which was
erad adrallv adopted by the entire couh-
+r,- The q. 8. l. at that time selected
+o uso Mountain time to Huntington
so that every town in this part Oh
Idaho got the same habit. When. dur
ing the war. the Government took over
.be roads it adopted the policy OF
medling with everything under the sun
that hysterical people could suggest and
that would make everybody know ana
feel that they must bow to the powers
that were in Washington, so we were
changed from first one standard OF
time to another whenever the power
in command said thumbs up or
"thumbs down" until everybody lost
track of which the last order dictated
and when it was all ended. after wear
ing out our clocks and watches ii""er-
ing them back and forth two or tree
times a year we landed in the IA
cific time belt. It is the hope of every-
ono now that we can resume orr old
habits of rising and retirin@ and eat
ing and going to work. without the
eoor that in a few months some official
Itch assumed AUTHORITY will snap ms
e,,oors crack his whip and com
