Outlook for This
Years Potato Crop
Reported Bright

BOISE, Idaho. - Prospects are
bright for Idaho apple growers this
year, according to Julius Jacobson,
crop statistician. Idaho has big
apple crop and expects to profit by
the shortage in other sections.
Mr.. jacobson says that reports
from Canada show the condition of
the crop in that country Is as fol-
lows: British Columbia, big crop,
twice that Of 1920, estimated at
1000 carloads; Ontario, 100000 bar
rels; Quebec, $1,000 barrels, with
the crop IS per cent Of that of last
year; New Brunswick, $4,000 bar
rels; Prince Edwards island, rs per
cent Of the average crop; Nova
Scotia, 100000 barrels.
In Europe the prospects for a
good crop are poor and the United
States should have good trans
atlantic trade In fruits. In England
the yield will be only average and
the apples Of poor size. Sweden's
crop will be below the average, due
to- frosts.q In Denmark the crop is
small. Norway and France have
short crops. Belgium has good
crop, but recently the droppings have
been exceptionally heavy.
From all parts OF Idaho the same
reports come to Boise-the biggest
fruit crop in the history of the
state, with the. quality and color ex-
cellent. Due to the drop in the cost
Of labor, 1t is not expected there will
be any difficulty in handling the
harvest. f4 fs.3

Waterrnelons Free
on Tuesday, First
Day Of the Fair

The fair association has con-
tracted 10000 pounds of water
melons to be here for the fair.
They are to be given away free
on Tuesday, the first day of the
fair and everyone is requested to
be there and to get their melon.
Tuesday is certainly going to
witness a real watermelon bust
when visitors from all over south
eastern Idaho will be here to see
the exhibits and take in the
sports. We have heard so much
of how the colored people of Dixie
like their melons, but come to the
fair on Tuesday and see how the
people Of the west appreciate a
real watermelon raised in Idaho.
The melons are from the
Frozen Dog ranch at Emmett, Ida.
and are grown by H. Obermeyer.

HEAVY ENROLMENT
EXPECTED AT U OF |
Many Students Have
I Already Sent in Their
Credential Blanks

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, MOS
COW.-Prospects for heavy enroll
ment at the University Of Idaho this
fall were indicated by the announce.
ment that already 225 new students
had sent in their credentials from
high school or from other institu-
tions from which they were enter
ing. This number not only Is
greater than the corresponding num-
Der for last year, but also is in ex-
cess of the number that had been re-
ceived when the university opened
last fall, according to an announce
ment from the office Of Miss Ella
Olesen, university recorder.
Whether this means an unpre-
cedented increase in enrolment,
however, would be only a matter OF
guesswork," said Miss Olesen. "The
university has made a special effort
this year to see that credentials were
in early"
Last year, on the first day, only
about 150 credential blanks were in
the hands of university officials. BY
the close of the first week freshman
enrolment had grown to 339. For
the year, it was 1868. A proportional
increase this year over the 225 ap-
plications already at hand would pro-
duce a freshman class Of 40. Uni
versity officials indicated, however,
that proportional increase this year
was not expected.
students should see to It," said
Miss Olesen, "that their credentials
are sent in before they come. Other
wise they may have to telegraph
home for their credits. At best they
can be admitted only Professionally"
From the office Of President A. H.
Upham it was learned that 1876 stu
dents had applied for work to help
them thru the year. More than half
of these, it was said, were new stu
dents. The university and the
Chamber Of Commerce, cooperating,
have listed all the jobs in town and
on the campus that will be available
for self-supporting students.

New Paving Being
Laid; Expects to be
Through by Fair

The new paving contract in Black
foot amounting to about mile was
commenced the last of the week and
Contractor ]. N. Hartong says he
thinks he can get it about done by
fair time.
~ He began the work on Judicial
street from Broadway west where
the hitching racks are, and 1t now
seems assured that the filthy condi-
tions about the racks Is at an end.
This is the outcome Of an agitation
of long standing that was renewed
a few weeks ago by members Of the
town council, who said that tie racks
are still essentials in a town, and
that it is also essential that the
street, where they are situated
should be paved and kept washed
clean.
On former occasions when there
was talk Of paving about the tie
racks somebody generally dis
couraged it by saying that cement
was too hard for the
horses to stand on and that bitulithic
would be injured by the acids de-
posted on 1t where horses stand.
Strange to say, such arguments had
some weight for a time, but people
have at length got the idea soaked
into them that It is better for horses
to stand on clean cement paving even
tho 1t is too hard, than to stand In
filth and 1t is better to have bituli-
thic paving decaying under use than
to have the people from the farms
wading in filth at the tie racks. In
short, the present town council have
decided that they think more Of
people and horses than they do of
money or asphaltum and crushed
rock.

READING MATTER ON BUSES
Old English Custom Had TO Be Aban-
doned on Account of Dishonesty
of the Public.

II IS being suggested that every
long distance railway tram should car
ry q library for the use of travellers.
More than one hundred years ago,
when omnibuses first began TO run In
London. travellers were furnished, not
only with newspapers and magazines.
but with books Each bus had little
bookcase filled with books by we'll
known authors.
As new books were expensive In
those days the thoughtfuness of the
bus-owners was appreciated 1t *
said that people used to ride TO some
outlying suburb and back simply for
the purpose of being abe to read a
book IN the omnibus library
Unfortunately while the public ap-
prcciated the boon, there were some
mean travellers who stole the books.
until, at last, the proprleLors were
obliged to announce that. In conse.
quencc Of repeated thefts, the libraries
would be discontinued.
