Bumper Crops Predicted

BOISE, Idaho. Sept. 14.-Excel-

adequate irrigation water supply is
reported in central Idaho by w. G..
Swendsen, State Commissioner of
Reclamation, who has just returned
from that section of the state where
he has been looking over irrigation
projects.
Mr.. Swendsen's inspection began
at HALEY and continued Eastward
through Arco, ending at Idaho Falls.
The Commissioner was over the new
highway from HALEY to Arco and
| says 1t is in excellent condition.
Mr.. Swendsen also visited the two
Owsley projects near Mud Lake. His
purpose in visiting these projects
was to study, in cooperation with
1.-THE United States Geological Survey
and General Land Office, the posi-
bilities OF the amount OF water sup

Anthracite Supply L.
Short 100000 Tons

WASHINGTON. Sept. Ia. - The
country's normal supply of anthra-
cite coal is already short approx
mately 30000,000 tons as result of
the five months strike just settled
according to a statement issued by
the coal bureau of the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States.
According to 1.-The statement the
normal yearly production of anthra-
cite coal suitable for household pur-
poses is about 72.06o.0oo tons.

ly increased while in measles it
doubled. Cancer mortality for both
sexes was considerably higher In
FAINT mortality decreased but the
number of women who died in
childbirth was distressingly large,
owing largely to septic causes.
The figures relating to the birth
rate confirm the old belief that ma
ture succeeds in restoring the bal
ance between males and females
which war tends to destroy An ex-
cess of male over female births is
nomal, but the highest recorded ratio
in the years Of peace was 1,043 boys
to 1000 girls. In 1919 this ratio
had risen to 1860, and in 1920 it
dropped to 1852.
