$1,000 FROM ~ ACRES OF CLOVER

Herman Mende has recently hauled
in his crop Of clover seed on his farm,
in America, and sold to the Marvin
Lumber Co., for about $1,000.
He raised it on about ~ acres, some
thing like four bushels to the acre,
sold 1O5 bushels and has some left for
seed. 1t was exceptionally fine seed
and he got twenty cents a pound for
it. # s H. *
Four bushels is not a large yield,
and the price now is low as compared
with a couple years ago, but at that
it is profitable crop. Warroad Pion-

o. s. l.. railway, which is the largest
taxpayer in the county, went over the
whole school budget this fall and ex-
pressed his entire satisfaction with
it, and said it was above the aver

presses this opinion, the smaller tax

carefully managed. This extract from

CONGRESSMAN FRENCH

The second republican political
meeting was held on Saturday night
and Congressman French was the
speaker. His talk was mostly on ma
tional questions. He showed how the
emergency tariff law enacted shortly
after President Harding came into
office had resulted in advancing the
price of many of the farmers prod
ucts; that the continuance Of the
three per cent immigration law had
kept out many undesirable foreigners
who would otherwise have flooded the
country. He thought the limitation
of arms conference the greatest
achievement Of any administration as
it would lessen the danger of war and
had greatly reduced the expenses of
this government. He showed where
other reductions Of millions Of dollars
had been made in the expenses.
Explaining Senator Borah's vote
against the tariff bill while his col
leagues voted for It. he said that Sem
ator Borah was not opposed to the
purpose and principles of the bill, but
as lawyer he could not vote for it
because he believed the provision
giving the President power to in
crease or decrease the rates under
certain conditions was unconstitu-
tional as this power belonged to
Congress alone.
He spoke of the excellent work In
Congress done by Congressman Smith
and the high esteem in which Mr..
Moore, candidate for governor was
held by his neighbors and all who
knew him.
He entered fully into the provisions
Of House Bill n relating to the ex-
change Of state lands to, the farmer
for lands within the reservation. He
said he And. his colleagues believed
the bill was,.all right but at the re-
quest of various bodies and organiza-
lions in idaho who thought they saw
something's supicious in the bill. they
had asked the President to veto it and
he had denesso.

SOME OF GEORGE A. LINES IDEAS

Mr.. Line is one Of the republican
candidates for member of the State
Legislature of Idaho. He is a sue
cessful farmer, owning a ranch at
Springfield, also property owner in
Blackfoot. He is one of the officers
of the Seed Growers Association and
interested in all movements to i'm
prove the agricultural and market
ing methods of the farmer.
The News man had little talk with
Mr.. Line today and got some of his
views on various subjects. We sug-
gested that it was good thing for
the farmers to have representative
in the legislature.
WELL" said Mr.. Line. II will not
consider myself the representative
of the farmers exclusively. II am
elected it will be by the votes of all
classes, and l expect to be the rep
resentative Of all the people. The
idea that any one class must have a
special representative l believe is all
wrong. But being a farmer l will
naturally be a little more familiar
with the special problems of the
farmer who constitutes the great bulk
of the population of Idaho"
do you think the cabinet form OF
government is as bad and expensive
as its opponents claim?" asked the
News man.
"Some people are doubtless honest
in their opposition" said Mr.. Line
"but with good many it is simply
politics. think If the people were
really informed as to the results and
economies effected by this simplifica-
ton and consolidation of the state
government. all opposition to it would
disappear. None of its friends will
claim that It is perfect in all respects

At a conference last week in Boise
held by the advocates of the direct
primary law with Senator Borah, it
was decided to make statewide
campaign in behalf of this measure.
1t was participated in by about so
representative republicans from all
parts Of the state. The contest will
be waged within the party and moth
ing will be left undone it is stated, to
convince the leaders Of the republican
party and the rank and file that a
primary law. is essential In Idaho to
direct and control political affairs,
and that it has a direct bearing on
taxation and economic problems.
Many of those present expressed dis
satisfaction with the present hybred

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS

Wne0 the present OOarQ went INTO
office in January, 1921, they found q
large amount Of unpaid obligations to
take care Of. One Of the items was
the fair grounds which had been con-
tracted for and the Board has. been
paying these off. 5000 Of the stock
claims remain to be paid. TO put the
grounds and. buildings in shape to
make them useable further expendi-
lures had to be made. Another item
was the interest on the road bonds
the people voted for In 1919. This
was an obligation the people them
selves had mSde and must be paid.

But the commissioners are really
making headway. They are catching

reports the warrant condition in ex-

been. The roads and bridges have
been kept in a good condition. though
more money would have been spent
had It been available. Salaries and
other expenses Of the county are a.

It was because Nelson Miller, w

made such q satisfactory record the
past two years that they were nom
mated for reelection. This plan wal
followed in the case of most of tn,

place actual settlers upon the soil
and to assist them to build homes
and create values which in after
