MARKET NEWS BY
RAPID TRANSIT
Dept. of Agriculture Will Introduce
Innovation in Transmitting Mar
ket News by Radiophone.

Agricultural market reports by
radiophone is the latest innovation
announced by the Bureau of Mar
kets, United States Department Of
Agriculture. This service will be
launched experimentally at East
Pittsburg this week, and with the
necessary radiOphone apparatus, far
mers and Others within a few hum
dred miles of Pittsburg will be able
to learn agricultural market condi-
tions and prices Immediately after
the close of the markets. The re-
ports are to be sent from radio sta
tion KDKA over a wave length of
$50 meters.
The departments experimental
radiophone service follows shortly
the inauguration of sending agricul-
tural market reports by wireless
Daily radio market reports are now
being dispatched from Omaha, ST..
Louis, Washington, and Bellefonte,
Pa, and received by wireless opera
tors in 20 Central and Eastern States
who Immediately relay the news to
farmers, shipping associations, dis
tributors of farm products, and
others. Although in existence but a
short time the department is receiv-
ing many gratifying reports regard
ing the usefulness of this service,
land marketing organizations every
where are not only watching the
work with keen interest, hut are ar
ranging as rapidly as possible to util-
ize the service.
Sending the reports by radiophone
would greatly simplify their receipt
by farmers and Others direct, mas
much as the operation of a radio
phone set does not require knowl-
edge of wireless codes. Instead of
coming in dots and dashes the mar
ket news would be received in Eng
lish, the same as conversation over
! an ordinary telephone. At present
those desiring the radio market re-
ports must make arrangements with
local experienced wireless operators
to receive and relay the messages to
them.

CHAUTAUQUA ON
JUNE q TO q
Ellison-White Company Will Put on
Some of Best Features Ever Pre-
sented on Chautauqua Course.

That the Chautauqua program
for the coming season holds much of
interest for the lecture, music and
entertainment lovers is indicated by
the advance Information from the
EllisonWhite Bureau. The dates
for Blackfoot have been definitely
set for June 21st to 27th.
The announcement that Peter
Clark Macfarlane, the noted writer.
is scheduled for a ChautauQua ap-
pearance this year is of particular
interest. For many years Chautau-
qua managers have tried to lure
Macfarlane to the platform, both be-
cause of his popularity as a writer
and because of his we'll known plat
form ability. Senator Hiram John
son rates him as one of the best pub
lie speakers in the country. His
contributions to the Saturday Even
ing Post, Golfers, McClures, Amer
lean, and practically all the leading
periodicals have been widely read
and appreciated.
Another figure of national, or
rather International Importance,
sch eduled for the coming assembly is
Stefansson, the famous Arctic ex-
plorer. Stefansson was contracted
for ChautauQua tour last year but
throat trouble developed and he was
forced to cancel at the eleventh hour.
Stefansson has been repeatedly pack
ing the big a,nditoriums Of the East
at his lectures and his coming will
undoubtedly be eagerly anticipated.
He has a fact lecture picked with i'm
formation as we'll as real interest.
Willie Golfers great success on
Broadway, Nothing but the Truth"
is one of the feature attractions an
nounced. This play is a screaming
comedy and has often been rated as
one OF the best farces OF the past
decade. A big musical attraction of
interest is scheduled In Aeurance's
Little Symphony. an orchestra or
ganized by the we'll known Ameri-
can composer, Thurlow Lieurance.

LEGION DRIVE IS
PROGRESSING NICELY

Local Legion officers report that
the drive for membership has so far
resulted in doubling the mem bership
of the Blackfot post, and that it is
expected to be doubled again in the
near future. They state that there
are good number Of ex-serwice men
in this vicinity who have not re-
sponded to the call, and think their
failure to do so is due to the fact
that many OF them are engaged on
the farms and otherwise, and that in
the course of short time most of
them will come in and enroll with
their comrades.

CROP co NOTIONS

BOISE, Idaho, May 1S.-Increased
warmth greatly improved growing
conditions and all vegetation made
rapid growth. Both winter and ear
ly sown spring wheat are looking
fine, as weather conditions all along
have been mostly favorable for these
crops. Sugar beets are coming up
nicely in most localities but in the
Twin Falls district the stand is poor.
Alfalfa grew rapidly. In many sec
tions this crop has been given it's
first application of irrigation water,
which is plentiful in all districts.
Pasture and range grasses are
growing luxuriantly. Range feed is
improving in al districts and forage
generally plentiful.
