WIDE ITINERARY IS
OBJECT OF INTEREST
SURVEY OF FORESTS WAS VIEW
POINT FOR EXCHANGE. NEW
FARMING LANDS.

Ben Bush, state timber cruiser, in an
interview with the Star Mirror Tues
day, after his arrival home from a
wide survey of Southern Idaho, in
connection with the exchange contem-
plated with the National forest,
stated that his itinerary covered from
1900 to 1900 miles, and from a timber
as we'll as general viewpoint the
survey had been interesting when
compared with that of years ago.
In making the national forest SER
vice sections he travelled over the
Weiser, Payette, the South and Mid
die Forks, the Salmon, Wood river,
the Upper Snake river, and he tribu
tary basins. The general view of
the timber sections was undertaken as
a preliminary to the exchange spoken
of with the national forest. The forest
on the Upper Snake territory con-
tains only fringe of Lodgepole pine.
One remarkable surprise was oc-
casioned when Mr.. Bush came on the
fine stretches of new farming land
in the Upper Snake river basin.
This Solid farm" as he termed it,
was 100 miles long and SO miles in
widh. Over half of the three million
acres is irrigated from water taken
by headgates from the river. The
system Of bitches enabled the farmers
to raise excellent crops of sugar
beets, potatoes, wheat, and alfalfa.
The soil is black loan.
Mr.. Bush after remarkable survey
of the territories mentioned, will
make report to the land department.
on the general viewpoints he takes Ill
with the exchange to be
with the national forest. All
his friends in Moscow and Latah
county are glad to see him home with
them again.

ANOTHER GARBAGE
PLANT IS NEEDED
This and Other Recommended
tons Made by J. n. Gregory,
Sanitary Expert.

That Wilmington Is In need of two
garbage incinerating plants is the
opinion OF John II. Gregory, sanitary
expert. who recently made an extern
siNe survey OF garbage disposal con-
ditions In this city. and who. in a
report submitted TO Mayor Harvey,
recommends that Wilmington should
collect it's own garbage.
The report was submitted to City
Council last night by Mayor Harvey
and owing TO It's length. was referred
20 the public health committee with
cut being read The committee. of
which Councilman Herman ID. Faulk-
ner is chairman. will study the report
and refer IL back 20 Council with rec
concentrations.
The draining and wrapping of gar
haze. known as the "dry garbage
method" the collection OF such gar
haee and rubbish jointly, three times
week the immediate construction of
an additional incinerator with a ca
paclty Of SO tons per day and the coll
lection of garbage by the city itself.
hlstcad OF through private contractors
upon the expiration OF the existing
contract. are the principal recommen-
dations.
In his report Mr.. Gregory takes into
consideration the existing contract and
recommends that equitable financial
adjustments be made with the con-
tractor for the collection of both gar
hage or rubbish.
Ii is further recommended that the
f.v- hs. Al n
may be ready for use by May /, 1922,
aud that it contain certain mechanical
improvements, not in the present
structure.
The collection of rubbish and trash
after Il has been separated and tied
IN bundles is also recommended. Mr..
Gregory urges the careful policing of
dumps and regulations prohibiting
the burning OF combustible materials
on such dumps.
The fun set OF recommendations
made by Mr.. Gregory follow:
That IL be required that garbage
De thoroughly drained of all free
water and liquids, that it be wrapped
up and tied in substantial paper, that
Il then be deposited in n suitable re-
ceptacle ready for collection and that
a be collected only by persons author
lied by the city to do 30.

ible rubbish, such as waste paper
excelsior. rags. old clothes, and other
similar materials. which will scatter
/. loose be securely fastened together

SIR JAMES CRAIG CALLS
CABINET ON PEACE PLEA
VIII Consider Lloyd George
Farley Initiation.

BELFAST, June ga meeting of the
Ulster Cabinet has been called for Tues
day by Sir James Craig. the Premier,
to consider the letter of Prime Minister
Lloyd George inviting the leaders Of
North and South Ireland to a conference
for the purpose of trying to bring about
o. reconciliation between the factions in
Ireland.
Upon receipt OF the letter of Mr..
Lloyd George Sir James replied inform
ing the Premier that he was summonng
meeting of the Cabinet and that he
hoped to obtain the attendance of all
the members. 'You may rest assured
no time will be lost in conveying the
result of our deliberations" the message
OF Sir James concluded.
The general feeling in Belfast is that
the Ulster men viii demand that the
terms TO be discussed at the proposed
conference shall be strictly limited, espe-
cially excluding the subject of an Irish
republic.
Sir James and his Ministers expressed
surprise that the letters OF invitation
from Mr.. Lloyd George to Sir James and
Eamonn de Valera had been launched
through the medium OF the press before
those invited to the conference were
first sounded regarding the acceptability
of such project. Finance Minister Pol
lock is expected to be the colleague of
Sir James Craig at the conference.
