REMOVE DODDER Is
EXPERTS ADVICE
Noxious Weed Rapidly
Gaining in Alfalfa
and Clover Fields

BOISE, Idaho.-Growers of alf-
alta and clover seed should take i'm
mediately steps to rid their fields of
Dodder, according to B. F. Sheehan,
state seed commissioner.
"Dodder or 'love-vine' is rapidly
making it's appearance in the clover
and alfalfa fields. 1t is important
that the growth Of this noxious weed
be checked at once. Today our mar
kets are demanding high grade
seed and place large discount upon
seed containing dodder.
"The past spring has seen large
imports Of these seeds which have
been placed on our markets at a
comparatively low price. Idaho
growers are going to compete with
the large carry-over stocks from
France, Italy and Germany, SO it is
I'D to the growers to place high
grade product on the market. It
cannot be done unless the dodder is
removed.
"The dodder can be removed from
the fields in several ways and prob
ably one Of the most effective and
generally practiced is to cut the
weed patches by hand. Care should
be taken to get all Of the tendrills
and this is only possible by careful
work. Pile cut portions on the spot,
allow to dry and then burn.
"The blow-torch is a most effec-
tive eradicator. Burning the plants
will remove most of them. The use
of the sodium arsenite spray has
been effective when applied with pre-
caution and care. Livestock should
not be allowed to Craze sprayed

DUTY TO Be PLACED
ON SEED IMPORTS
Tariff Bill Before Con.
gress Places Duty on
Small Seeds

BOISE, Idaho.-That the new
tariff bill now before congress car
ries an import duty on alfalfa, the
clovers, timothy and sugar beet seed
was indicated in wire received
from Representative Addison l..
Smith, according to B. F. Sheehan'
state seed commissioner.
"The passage of the new tarih
bill which includes an import duty
of 2 cents per pound on alfalfa, 8
cents on red, white and alsike clover,
2 cents on timothy and cent on
sugar beet seed will be real pro-
tecetion to Idaho small seed grow
ers," said Mr.. Sheehan.
"Idahos representatives in Wash
ington have been especially FORUM
ate to have inserted in the new bill
import duties on these seeds. Our
state is especially adapted to the pro-
duction of some of the finest quality
seeds to be found on the market
Small seed production is one OF the
farmers most profitable industries
However, we could not hope to COM
pete with the seed growers OF
France, Italy and Germany, who
have been able to lay these seeds In
our ports cheaper than our growers
can produce.
with the low exchange rate there
has been a natural incentive fol
these foreign countries to ship large
quantities of their seeds to the
| United States. AS consequence
there are today large carry-ovel
stocks .of foreign seeds. The i'm
port duty is the western seed grow
ers' only protection and our Wash
ington representatives have beer
very fortunate to secure this pro
lection"

German Battleship

NORFOLK, Va.-With the former

their attention to the problem of pro-

land off the Virginia capes yesterday,
lean to the view that the solution lies
in keeping control of the air. The

such force, was regarded as practic'

WHERE FLIES GET IN

Housekeepers have quite a prob
lem to keep the flies out of the
house, and sometimes when the
screens have all been put in good
order the flies still get in. The
housekeeper trains all hands to drive
the flies off of the screen door and
then pass thru quickly and still the
flies get in.
Chimneys/ sometimes afford a
ready passage for flies. Sometimes
the flue hole is stopped up, but there
is a ventilator above the stove or
range leading into the chimney and
kitchen odors passing thru that lead
the flies right in. Sometimes there
are openings under the caves that let
the heat out in winter and admit flies
in summer.
A good many homes do not have
tight screens, but keep them in the
way supposing that flies approach a
house with their eyes shut and II
they happen to but against the
screen they will be kept out, and II
they happen to hit the holes in the
screen or the cracks at the top, bot.
tom or sides, they will enter, and
that on this theory the rickety screen
will keep some of them out. Thai
theory is not sound. A fly has more
sense than people about some
things. 1t has keen eye and is 6
close observer. If there is hole In
screen it can find it quicker thar
the average person can, and after Il
gets into the house and somebody
tries to drive it out, the fly will hans
on to all the good parts OF the scree1
and never go to the hole to get out Il
he can help it. He uses ricket!
screen door to keep himself in the
house, but it never keeps him out fol
a minute after he gets ready to go in
If you doubt the intelligence of
fly, put out piece of sticky fly pape
and watch them perform. One vii
touch it and get stuck. Another will
maneuver to see what this strang
thing is and will try to beat tn
game. He will light at the edge o
the paper and put one foot on 1t ant

Admiral Sims Says Report or Speech
Sent Over BY Cable Was Misquot-
ed in Many Places And Wrong

WashingtOn.-In q formal report,
pointing out certain inaccuracies in the
cabled reports, but retracing none OF
the statements made in his speech in
London before the English-speaking
union concerning Sim Feiners in Ire
land and technical American citizens"
in the United States, Admiral Sims,
Thursday, replied to Secretary Den
by's demand for an explanation of his
remarks on that occasion.
Secretary DENLY refused to comment
on his interview with the Admiral or
to make known in what degree the re-
ports of the speech varied from what
the Admiral actually said, nor would
he give out the admiral's statement.
He said however, that he would reach
decision at an early date, and would
then make public all the facts in the
case.
admiral Sims denied the accounts
the secretary said "He said he had
been incorrectly quoted. gave him a
written memorandum setting forth these
statements and asked him to inform
me in writing wherein he was misquot-
ed and to tell me, if he could, what
he did say in that speech. ! asked him
to give me an early reply. My MEM
Orandum was an official communlca-
tion to Admiral Sims in the form or an
order"
Sims reported ait the department al
o 80 O'Clock Thursday and in a two
minute interview with the secretary re-
ceived from him a formal letter tc
| which he submitted reply in writing
before leaving the department about an
houre later.
Although the admiral would not per
nit himself to be intervleWd hiS
friends insist that he retraced nothing
and explaind only certain inaccuracies
occurring in the reports of his speech II

March madness again seized Ger

after the troubles instigated by Doctor
Kapp and General Won Luettwitz In

year it started with a monarchist
tinge. This time the movement APP

Industrial districts of middle Ger
many contain the center of the dis
turbances which threaten the great
ammonia, potash, anthracite and cop

tant cities, Dresden, Leipzig. Frei-
burg, Plauen, Halle, Mansfield, Els.

Outside these areas the large shipping
city of Hamburg has been the scene
Of violent occurrences.
Dynamite has been used extensively
by the revolutionaries and various
town halls and other public buildings

prisons were stormed and their in

blown up In a few places and their
safes raided. Some armories and am
munition stores have also fallen into
the hands of the communists. Fight

barb wire entanglements have been
features.

Harding, Secretary of State Hughes.
other cabinet members and number
of senators and representatives. The
great question agitating Washing
ton is the extent to which their in
tiuence will prevail in formulating the
peace program which the President
shall submit to the coming extra ses-
sion of congress.
Domestic economic considerations
are involved in the fact that a return
to normal conditions requires a mar
ket for American products abroad, q
stabilizing of exchange rates and the
establishing of more settled state of
affairs in Europe. Influences are not
lacking, both inside and outside the
administration, to point out that these
things cannot be achieved without the
strong support Of the United States,
acting in league or some sort of de-
finite agreement with other countries.
A big straw in the strong wind of
foreign influence is seen in recent
decision of Great Britain to bring a
speedy termination to the Mesopo-
tamian problem by admitting the
United States into full rights with ma
tionals of the League of Nations in
exploiting the oil resources of the
Asiatic country. Such conditions and
influences confront the President and
the new congress, ard the question Is
being freely propounded if, under the
circumstances, the administration can
afford to definitely turn down some
form of a league.
