is LESS.

Under a date line of July l6,
from Grangeville. Idaho. an arti-
Gle published i'm the Spokesman
Review Sunday reads as follows.
Owing to continued rains last
fall, the Idaho county acreage of
summer fallow and fall wheat
approximates rs per cent of the
acreage of 1920, with an esti-
mated production of AS bushels
an acre. The acreage of spring
grain is fully equal to that of
1920 but the yield is expected to
fall 25 per cent below 1920. ow-
ing to late sowing and lack of
moisture. Early spring grain,
however, will be as good as last
year. The production of spring
wheat will be about 60 per cent
of the 1920 yield.
The barley acreage is about
the same as 1920, with an equal
ly good yield. about 40 bushels
an acre. The same conditions
prevail as to oats and hay.
Potatoes and fruit in acreage
and estimated production are the
same as last year.

ELECTION SET
FOR AUGUST e
PETITION ASKS $ COUNCIL
TO CALL ANOTHER
ELECTION.

A petition containing the
lanes of large number OF tax
payers was presented to the city
council last night at an adjourn
ed meeting requesting them to
call another election for the pur-
pose of voting on the proposition
of bonding the city in the sum OF
$2O,OOO.00, said funds to be used
in macadamizing the streets lead
ing into Cottonwood. After due
consideration the council grant
ed the request and set Tuesday,
August 23rd for the date of the
election.
A similar proposition of this
kind was defeated at a special
election, held on July 5th. The
petition, filed with the council,
requesting another election, re-
cites that many did not under
stand the real motives of the
bond issue, and as a consequence,
several who opposed the bond
issue on July 5th have become
stmch supporters for the move
ment, realizing that something
must be done to the streets lead
ing out of Cottonwood and
especially when the farmers are
improving the roads leading to
the city limits, the hauling all
being done by donation which
the farmers have also promised
to do for the city.
Some Opposition.
At the mass meeting held III
the city council chambers, Mon
day evening, some opposition
was voiced against the PROPOSE
ton, but the greatest majority
of those present were i'll favor OF
the improvement. 1t is quite
generally admitted at this time
that the bond issue will carry OF
August 23rd, as the issue was
only defeated by II votes Jul.
