PLAN STUDY OF IDAHO
POTATO DISEASES
Experienced PathOlOgist Appointed
For This Work.

]. Nj. Raeder of the Iowa State Col
lege has been appointed assistan
plant pathologist of the University O.
Idaho Agricultural Experiment Sta
| ton. Mr.. Raeder will arrive in Mos.
COW July first and after spending
several days getting acquainted will
accompany c.. w. Hungerford, pathol-
ogist of the Experiment Station, to
southern Idaho where he will under
take a thoro field study of various
important potato diseases.
Mr.. Raeder's appointment is a CO.
operative one with the office of cereal
investigations of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture and he will
return to Moscow for the winter
months to assist in the cereal disease
Investigations which have recently
been undertaken by the Experiment
Station in cooperation with the fed
eral department.
Mr.. Raeder has had thoro training
ILL plduL pdJhOlo5yt having OdhOA LILO
masters degree at Iowa State College
and completed part Of the require
ments for the degree of doctor of phil
osophy. He was raised on farm and
has had considerable farming expert
ence. He has also had much expert
ence in field investigational work up
on potato diseases and the diseases
of cereals.
Potato diseases caused loss of
over "a per cent of the total crop in
Idaho last year and the potato disease
situation is especially serious in GER
toin sections of souther Idaho. 1t has
been found that the only practical
way to study these diseases, and the
diseases of other crops, including the
working out of methods of control, is
to carry on investigational work in
the field and supplement these field i
by intensive laboratory
study. The Idaho Experiment Sta
ton is especially fortunate in secur-
Ing a man for this work who has had
he special training which Mr.. Raeder
las had along these lines.

A suitable memorial to the memory

The plans relative to the American
Falls project will be outlined and the

A comprehensive plan of co-opera-

that the people of Idaho be heard
through their association in all mat

These are only a few of the mat

1t not only means added production

John, written from Fort Cumberland,

George Washington was the John
d. Rockefeller of his day-sO far as
wealth goes. John d. once said he
would rather lose thousand dollars
than be cheated out of a nickel. Well,
George evidently felt the same way +;
at least his letters so indicate. Yet
he accepted no pay as a soldier, and
spent $4,000 Cat leasD of his own
money. He was generous as he was
keen to get what was his. He de-
lighted in good bargain. AS for eff
cheney, 1t was his middle name. There
never was q better farmer and bust
ness man, and Mount Vernon was a
model plantation.
George Washington proved himself
a regular fellow in these ways, among
others:
He played cards, and ordered a
dozen packs at a time; one of his ac-
cards. 8 shillings."
He drank wine, beer, rum and
brandy-always in moderation.
He loved horses, and imported fine
stock.
He was fond of fox hunting; his
pack of fox hounds was famous; he
wore the latest and best in hunting
clothes.
He loved to fish, to shoot ducks and
to hunt deer.
He wore good clothes, and insisted
upon having them to his liking In
every detail.
In short, the real George Washing
ton was not the mythical Washington
who has been fofsted on the American
school boy of past generations. The
marvel is that so human an American
was ever so mummified In a land like
America. They couldn't do 1t to
George when he was alive. And it will
never happen again.
