/ ture of $4,000 does not appal even
the most confirmed retrencher or bit
terest foe to that thought which en-
| braces future welfare.
The East, with the bitter survey OF
: its denuded forests, is strong for con-
servation. Pennsylvania with 116,-
100000 feet of timber has a measure
before its legislature calling for $780,
600. New York. which has less than
several Idaho counties, last year ap-
propriated $143,000 and will be asked
to spend $221,00 this year. Even
New Jersey will invest $4,000 despite
the fact that that state scarcely grows
anything big enough to make driv-
ing whip for western girl. So that
the 130,O00,0O0 feet of timber in Idaho
are seemingly we'll worth a $4,000
insurance taken out by the state.
Over period of twenty years ex-
periments in Switzerland and for ten
years at Wagonwheel Gap, Colorado,
it has been conclusively shown that
proper forestration is of tremendous
Importance to irrigation supply. The
retention of snow and moisture by the
forested regions is three and one
nuded or barren areas.
Damages from floods are greatly
minimized through forests, the entire
water supply is stabilized and, furth-
er, is more abundant owing to greater
precipitation in such areas as are
graced with trees. Were the forests
of Idaho destroyed this civilization
would shrivel and pass into desc
latiOn. Forty per cent of the Idaho
forests are best adapted to use as
pulp lands. The woods on this area
are the once worthless hemlock,
spruce, lodgepole pine, etc. The in
creasing and imminent danger of
famine in the newspaper world, owing
to the inevitable exhaustion of SUP
plies of paper, is-a menace which the
world but little senses. The day of
the mammoth editions is past; none
but the heavily financed papers are
assured of being able to issue six
months from this date for already
soaring premiums paid for immediate
delivery are serving to seriously
hamper the small publisher. The |

GOVERNOR DAVIS
HAS HIGHWAY PLAN
WOULD SELL BONDS AND d.
VIDE MONEY AMONG COUN-
TIES-LEGISLATIVE NEWS.

Boise-In special message to the
legislature, Governor Davis sets forth
program to be followed during the
next two years to carry out the state
highway program, the legislature
having repealed the two mill highway
levy law. He asks that legislation be
passed paving the way for the sale of
the $2,000,000 bond issue voted at the
last election and that from the pro-
ceeds so per cent be distributed by al
lotting so per cent for use on state
highways in the different counties
proportionately to the amounts con-
tributed by each county in 1920 and
the remaining 40 per cent be used in
neutral zones. Compulsory cooera-
tion in the construction of state high
ways should not be required, he holds
and provisions should be made for
counties to go ahead with construc-
ton of state highways within their
boundries if they so desire. Coun-
ties and highway districts, should be
empowered to bid on road contracts
he contends. Governor Davis asks
for Legislation covering these points
Further recommendations n the
message include: Merging of the de-
parment of commerce with the de-
partment of finances; legislation to
prevent overlapping in numper Of
state departments; investment OF in
surance funds transferred to the de-
partment of Investment; all state
building construction to be placed

creation of state purchasing depart

WEATHER
CONTINUES DAMP
PRECIPITATION OF THREE
QUARTERS OF AN INCH IN
FIRST SEVEN DAYS.

February is starting off as if it
intends to keep up the record of No
vember, December and January, for
dampness according to the report by
F. L. Burkart, weather observer of
the University of Idaho, whose report
for the first seven days is here given.
There is a remarkable similarity in
the records of January weather in
1920 and 1921. The mean maximum
temperature both years was 35.7.
The mean temperature both years
was 24.2 in 1921 and 23.9 in 1920.
The departure from normal was 8
degrees in 1921 and 29 in 1920. The
maximum temperature was AZ in 1921
and 81 in 1920; the minimum was 5
above on January 10, 1921 and 5
above on January IL, 1920. In 1921
there were six clear days and five in
1920; there were seven part cloudy
days in 1921 and eight in 1920 and
there were 18 wholly cloudy days in
January of both years.
The report for the first seven days
Of February, as given by Observer

PRESBYTERIAN
MISSIONARY MEET
INTERESTING AND PROFITABLE
MEETING HELD IN CHURCH
TUESDAY AFTERNOON.

An interesting, instructive and
profitable meeting of Presbyterian
women interested in missionary work
was held in the church Tuesday after
noon. One of those present has given
the following very ably written re-
port of the meeting.
Despite the inclemency of the
weather an unusually large number
were in attendance at the missionary
meeting held in the upper room Of the
Presbyterian church Tuesday after
noon. A true Christian spirit of in
terest and loyalty, which seemed to
pervade the atmosphere, made the
meeting one of unusual interest and
benefit.
Mrs. A. R. Webb presided, also
leading in the usual devotions pre-
ceding the program. The topic for
the afternoon was Siam, as yet a
Presbyterian field. A wonderful
country with wonderful work, and
one of which we can truly say it is
with US, and keeping progress in all
our church work. Certainly we have
reason to be proud of our mission
ares, "By their fruits ye shall know
them.
Obstacles and encouragements in
the work in Siam with glimpses of
the work, together with personal let
ters direct from the field, embraced
a talk and paper by Mrs. J. G. Ed
ridge of wonderful interest and in
struction. An unusually interesting
paper on the mission stations in Siam
and Lavas, together with the differ
ent industries and occupations, was
given by Mrs. H. L. Whittier.
The key that unlocks the door to
our missionaries, that they may Of
for salvation to all people, namely
our hospitals and the healing of the
sick, was ably given by Mrs. J. S.
Heckathorn in an article on the hos
oitals and physicians and The gener-
Jus help given by those who are in
power. Even the Buddists cooperat-
ng with them in this work. The
ARE of the lepers, so numerous there,
vas spoken Of and mention made of
he comfortable abode for them at
Jhieng Mai.
Mrs. ]. H. Bevans favored US with
! piano solo, at the close of which |
Office and cake were served. The
'ffering was very generous.

RAILROADS. REQUEST
DENIED BY LABOR BOARD

Chicago-(By A. P.)-The federal
railroad labor board today denied the
request of the American Associated
Railroad Executives for immediate
abrogation of the national wages
agreement with the brotherhoods and
the establishment of new basic rates
for unskilled labor predicated on local
conditions. The board held that it
has no jurisdiction over questions in
volving expense of operation and sug-
gested that neither the roads nor the
unions interrupt the pending hearings
on standard rules and working condi-
tions. with further unwarranted de-
mands." B. M. Jewell, president of
the railway employees department of
the American Federation of Labor,
replying, to last weeks statement by
W. W. Atterbury of the Pennsylvania
railway, told the board the request
for an immediate abrogation of the
working agreements is part
of conspiracy to disrupt unionism.

STATE HAS MORE THAN 400
PERSONS ENGAGED IN RAILS
ING PUREBRED FOWLS.

More than 400 breeders of purebred
poultry are listed in the Idaho Pure
bred Poultry Directory, which has

1T is not necessary to send east for

Idaho produces stock as good as can
be obtained from anywhere outside
the state"
The directory will be distributed, it
is announced, from the county farm
bureau offices and from the exten-
sion division.
Prem Moore, poultry specialist of
the extension division, now is con-
Quoting series of meetings through
