CONGRESSMAN FRENCH
AMONG HOME FOLKS
is IN FINE FETTER-BRIEF RE-
VIEW OF WORK AT WASH
INGTON.

Congressan Burton L. French ar
rived in Moscow last night to spend
few weeks during the recess of the
congress, Mighty glad to be back"
was the way Mr.. French expressed it
and today he is meeting his many
friends.
"The several months of the con-
gress just ended have been exceed
ingly busy ones" said Mr.. French,
land probably never exceeded by the
amount of work done by any peace
time congress in our countrys his
tory.
1--WE had, of course to pass sew
eral of the appropriation bills that
failed of passage in the last congress,
and the temper of the congress is in
dicated when l say that we scaled
down the items about $600,O00,OO0
belowwhat was asked for by the ad-
ministration less than year ago.
"In addition to this work we have
passed the following laws:
1. The Emergency Tariff law to
act as a stop gap pending permanent
| legislation.
, 2. Measure fixing a 80 percent
duty on American made goods sold
abroad at the close of the war.
3. The immigration resolution
measure limiting immigration from
any country to percent of its prior
immigration.
A. The national budget law.
5. The peace resolution.
6. Measure increasing the farm
loan fund working capital from $685.
100000 to $50,000,000.
7. Act allowing farm loan bonds
to be sold for 51a percent instead OF
5 percent. ,;so., n,o.s,,ro
9. Grain futures tax measure.
10. Measure to regulate the pack
ing business.
IL. Measure authorizing the war
finance board to issue securities up
to $1,OOO,O00,OO0 for agriculture
credit.
"In addition to this the following
bills are in conference:
l. The Volstead beer bill.
2. The good roads bill and the
farmers cooperative association bill.
''In my judgment those bills VIII
pass shortly after the congress shall
reconvene.
"The house has passed and sent to
the senate the tariff and the tax re-
vision bills and the finance commit
tee of the senate is now considering
both of these measures.
Mr.. French reports that there is
tremendous interest in the approach
ing limitation of armaments con-
ference, and he believes it will mean
the scaling down of war and navy ap-
preparations for the future for all the
nations of the world, and the putting
aside of one of the greatest causes
for war: Namely immediate war
materials. Nations are like lndlvl-
duals and they act hastily if they are
armed to the teeth.
Mr.. French will have several side
trips to make in Idaho, one of which
will be to the Boise-Payette lrriga-
ton district, where a program is be-
ing pushed to add extensively to the
project by including the Emmett
District now under water and the
Black Canyon AREA where the set
tiers have been waiting for water for
fifteen years.
NMrs. French did not accompany me
on this trip because it must neces-
sarily be so BRIEF said Mr.. French,
"and because the congress will re-
convene in another three weeks. 1t
wouldn't be fair to her, however, IT l
did not say she is getting anxious to
be back with her Idaho friends, her
home and her garden

Princeton Is Prosperous.

L. L. Young, well known farmer
and stock man of Princeton, and R. D.
Harris, merchant, are in Moscow to-
day, having driven in to transact
business. Mr.. Young states that at
least four inches Of snow fell at
Princeton Sunday. He says that
while the moisture was needed, an
other week of good weather is much
to be desired in that district, as the
spring wheat is still in the shock. The
fall wheat has been threshed in the
northern part Of the county, and
yielded we'll. The cut of timothy
along the Palouse river was also good
this yeas, making the season pros
porous one for the farmers.

VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM
ON GRID TOMORROW

Football practice preparatory tC
the 1921 University of Idaho varsity
season starts in reality tomorrow
afternoon. This afternoon 25 men
were in suits and went through light
work under the direction of Coach
Thomas Kelley. Actual practice for
the year awaits the arrival of Cap
tain Grover Evans of American Falls
and other letter men.
Pessimism was the keynote of a
statement made today by Coach Kel-
ley on the outlookt for the season.
He refused to make any predictions
except to say that varsity candi-
dates were in for long hard work if
the current season is to be success
full"
The MacLean field gridiron has
been painstakingly sodded and is
now a fine grass field. This field
will be used only for games this
year All practice will be held either
on the campus or on the adjoining
field to the main gridiron-
Preliminary work will consist of
passing the ball, charging and short
sprints. Coach Kelley's design is to
get the men in the best of shape as
soon as possible and to acquaint them
with handling of the ball.
In commenting on the prospects
for the season Coach Kelley said:
''The goal of the varsity candidates
and myself is of course to make the
1921 season the best in the history
of Idaho football / am far from
optimistic, however. Every indlvid-
ual man must do his best if the team
is to do things this year"

These and q number Of similar ques-
tions will de definitely answered, at
least for Louisiana, when a field
party from the State Department
OF: Conservation completes a survey
covering most of the second-growth
piney woods Of Louisiana. The re.
suits Of these studies, when combined
with similar studies being made In
other Southern states, will be pub
lished for thel use Of timber owners
throughout the South. The men now
at work in this state are s. A. Tra-

During the past month they have been
measuring stands in Calcasieu, Beau

surprisingly rapid growth in young
stands on old fields and cut-over land.
The growth Of virgin timber is very
