SAYS ASSOCIATION
WHEAT Will net 81

While recent advances in the wheat
market will mean a materially in
creased average price when the 1921
pool is closed, they have not precipi-
tated dumping of the wheat still
held by the cooperative marketing
concerns, according to Walter j. Rob-
inson, general manager of the Wash
ington Wheat Growers association
in a statement published in the Spo-
kesman-Review. Mr.. Robinson .es-
Inmates that 40 per cent of the 1921
crop is still in the hands of the asso-
ciation
By the terms of marketing reso-
luton, the associations in Oregon,
Washington and north Idaho have
agreed to market an average of
100000 bushels month to dispose
of the 10000 0,000bushel crop in an
orderly manner by next June The
quota is not obligatory, but no radi-
cal change in the general marketing
program is contemplated.
Since January l the Spokane office
has sold about 100000 bushels of
wheat to millers in the interior and
brokers'" said Mr.. Robinson. I'VE
are already past our February quota
and will probably market 100000
bushels this month and cut down the
quotas for the months ahead in pro-
portion.
Current wheat prices should net
the grower 81 a bushel anywhere in
the interior producing districts. The
grower whose wheat is sold at the
higher figures does not actually re-
GIVE them, but they tend to raise the
pool average on all wheat sold. Our
association is fortunate because we
still have about 40 per cent Of the
crop to sell at the higher figures"
While Mr. Robinson figures the
average net to the grower from re-
cent sales at 81, or around 81 20 gross,
much wheat has been sold at a high
sr figure. For instance, limited guam
titles of Big Bend bluestem and Mar
luis havebeen sold to interior millers
1t $1.50 a bushel, which equals the
london price. The association holds
most of these high priced varieties
'tll in the west 1t still advances q.

COUGAR MEN Win
TOURNAMENT HERE
IDAHO WRESTLERS DEFEATED
15 TO 5-KINNIS0N WINS
DECISION

Washington State college wrestlers
won the second wrestling tournament
from the University of Idaho mat men
at the university gymnasium 'hurs-
day night by a score of 19 to 5. The
Washington State mat artists took
five falls, a forfeit and one decision
from the Idaho grapplers for a total
of 10 points while the Idaho men won
two decisions and a forfeit for a total
score of five points.
The visiting wrestlers showed up
particularly strong in the 125 pound,
lightweight and light heavyweight
classes. Frank Kinnison was the only
Idaho man to win his match. He
took two decisions from Schroeder of
w. S. c., after IA minutes of fast
wrestling IN which the Idaho man was
the constant aggressor. Schroeder
was on the defensive at all times and
Kinnison had his shoulders more
than once close to the mat.
Refuses to Meet b rOWn
Trommanhauser of w. S. c., pow
erfully built heavyweight wrestler,
refused to meet Babe" Brown of Ida
no and forfeited his match. Robinson
of Idaho forfeited his match to Boggs
of w. S. c., in the las pound class.
Trommanhauser's refusal to meet
Brown was a disappointment to the
crowd who wanted to see the capable
Idaho man in action. Brown is hold
er of the state amateur wrestling
title and is looked upon as the fore
most amateur wrestler in the north
west
In the lighter weight classes the
Idaho men showed plenty of speed
and fight but greater strength and,
from appearances, greater weight won
for Washington State. Washington
State won the first tournament, Is to
10, at Pullman recently.
Takes Two Falls
Osborne of Idaho was thrown by
w. S. c., in the 125 pound
bout. The fall of the first bout came
in four minutes and 56 seconds when
Jahlstrom clamped on a straight body
lock. The fall of the second bout
came after five minutes of fast wrest-
pinned Osborne's shoulders to the

as married in 1920, the census bureau
announced today, in a statement pre-
senting special analysis of marital

crease since the 1910 census in the
percentage of married persons for
each year of ages from Is to 34, es-
pecially among the younger members
of this group. The age group from 35
to "A, inclusive also showed an in
crease in the ratio of married persons
As years of age and older showed a
decrease.
In 1920 the figures show 1922 boys

PLANS Progress FOR
BANQUET SERVICE men

The hearty cooperation which the
ladies of st. Marks guild are giving
the executive committee of the Am
erican Legion in preparing for the
banquet on Washington's birthday as
sures it's success. The banquet, as
announced in recent issue of The
Star-Mirror, is to be given in honor
of State Commander Robert d. Leeper
of the Idaho department of the Am
erican Legion, who will be the speak
er of the evening.
Commander Leeper is a practicing
attorney in Lewiston and an orator
of more than ordinary ability. His
subject will be of interest to all ex-
service men. Therefore, the local
post is acting as host to all ex-service
men of the community at that time.
The banquet will be financed by the
Legion and managed by the ladies of
the guild and will be free to all ex-
service men. The only requirement
is that they sign the list which will
be at the Togs clothing store, between
now and Monday evening. In that
way the ladies will know just how

CLUB EXPERT TO WORK
in NORTHERN COUNTIES

H. A. Mathieson, of Ada county, has
arrived in Moscow to take charge of
the boys and girls club work in the
ten northern counties of the state.
The work will be carried on under the
Smith-Lever act. Mr.. Mathieson will
organize pig clubs, potato clubs, etc.,
working in conjunction with the coun-
ty agricultural agents The girls
club work will be handled through
Miss Erwin of the university, who has
charge of home demonstration work.
Mr.. Mathieson states that it is the
purpose to work the boys into the
adult work, SO that they may find it
profitable. One feature, especially in
Bonner county, will be the growing
of seed potatoes, which can be done
by the boys at a profit. By making
the work profitable for the boys, they
will become interested in the farm,
he believes, and, when they grow to
manhood, will be equipped to conduct
farm profitably and will be content
ed to follow agricultural work, while
now a majority of boys are eager to
get to the cities. The necessity of
work along the line of greater pro-
duction is shown in recent statistics
which show that the United States
stands 18th in acre production in the
entire world.
The boys and girls club work in
the northern counties has been light
in the past, being taken up only as
the young people demanded it and
called on the county agent for aid. In
Latah county, o. S. Fletcher county
agent, has organized several pig clubs
during the past winter.

SEVERE COLDS BORDER
ON THE REGULAR FLU

Numerous cases of severe colds
which in some cases border ON the
influenza, are reported in Moscow
with the coming of milder weather
and the doctors are reasonably busy
So far no severe cases have been re-
ported and there seems little likeli-
hood of serious epidemic.
In neighboring towns, especially in
Whitman county, the influenza has
been epidemic for the past several
weeks. 1t is said that Colfax has at
least 900 cases, while Pullman and
Palouse have numerous cases. At
Albion it has been necessary % close
the schools. So far there have been
very few fatalities traceable 10 the
disease.

MARCH | DEAD-LINE FOR
SECURING AUTO LICENSE

March l is the dead line date fol
securing 1922 motor vehicle licenses
in Idaho. Sheriff John L. Woody is
in receipt of a communication from
Robert o. Jones, commissioner of law
enforcement bearing this information
and urging that the sheriff'S office
at ONCE commence to inform the pub
lie of the dead-line date. Sheriff
Woody informs The Star-Mirror that
there are comparatively few people
using 1922 license plates so far, the
impression having been received,
through a statement given out last
year that it was not necessary to Sc
cure new license before March l.,
when, as a matter of fact, they have
been operating their cars since Janu-
ary l without complying with the
registration law.
The letter from the commissioner
of law enforcement is, in part, as fol-
lows:
"In the direction of being absolute
ly fair, the department of law en-
forcement has set the dead-line date
for 1922 as March 1, after which time
it is asked that strong concerted
drive by all peace officers of the
state be made in enforcing this law.
"The public should be informed
that parties found operating motor
vehicles without 1922 license after
March l of this year will be immedi-
ately arrested. An expired foreign
license gives the user no protection.
These parties are as equally amen
able to our laws as are the residents
of this state who attempt to operate
their cars on an expired Idaho license.
"a similar request to that which is
now asked of you will be sent to all
peace officers"
