thought in mind, that the ability of

be lost sight of. the present conditio

A tax commissioner will centralize

~alization of values is fair and that
property is assessed proportionately
and without injustice to any ane
case. 1t will place important duty in
the hands of men who understand
taxation problems, valuations and
conditions within the state; who in
stead of being arbitrary, will be
prompted in their acts by cold de-
liberation. When Idaho has such a

TENDER.
Fertility of soil is very important,
the experienced growers recommend
ing anywhere from forty to one aun-
dred tons of rotten manure to the
acre. The rows ARE planted eigh-
teen inches apart, which are block
ed to about twelve inches a single
head. 1t requires one one-half to
three pounds of seed ITO the acre, the
cost of which is anywhere from
$3.50 to $3.50 per pound.
Special preparation Of the soil is
required. / would suggest that If

not more than one to five acres be

point we are very insistent, as we
desire to have our growers make a
success.

clearly that the task of putting
farming on sound business basis is
really uu to them and that through
organizaf bon they can reduce mar
keting COTS. In this they will have
increasing help from the Depart
ment of Agriculture and the various
state agricultural colleges which
now see better thAan before that they
must give the farmer the same sort
of help in the marketing of his crops
that they have been giving him in
the production.
In the industrial and financial
centers there is coming to be a bet
ter understanding of the important
pant the farmer plays in our general
economic scheme, and consequently
q decidedly more intelligent and
sympathetic attitude toward him
and his problems.
Everything considered, therefore.
we can enter the new year in a spirit
of hopefulness and good cheer. 1
see nothing which indicates boom
times for the farmer in the neal fu-
ture, but there does to be
promise of better times both for the
farmer and for those whose business
is largely dependent upon him.

these hopeful signs he mentioned the
following:
Credit conditions are better both
through regular channels and
through the special agencies created
to meet the farmers needs. Inter
est rates also are softening.
Reductions already made in
freight rates on farm products light
en- by that much the transportation
burden which the farmer has been
carrying.
Cost of producing farm crops will
be lower relatively in 1922 than in
1921.
The paralyzing effect of the sud-
den drop in prices last year is wear
ing off, and farmers will enter the
new year more hopefully, believing
that the worst is over

POISONING ENGLISH sPARR0WS.

The English sparrow is every
where regarded as a pest. Not only
do they consume a large quantity
|of grain but drive away other useful
and, from the farmers point of view,
valuable birds. Fortunately during
1.-THE winter time they are easy to
poison, and every farmer should as
sist in reducing the number of this
pest. Poison bait may be prepared
as follows:
Dissolve is Of strychnine
sulphate in a scant cupful of boiling
water and pour over two pounds Of
oven dried wheat. Mix thoroughly
and spread on paper to dry. The
poisoned wheat should be scattered
thinly and thoroughly wherever the
birds are likely to feed. Roofs, back
yards, unused poultry runs, hog
lots, manure piles, fence posts, etc.,
are favorable places to put the bait.
Every %precaution should be taken
not to endanger domestic animals.
Sparrows are very wise and soon
leave where danger lies, so dead
birds should be removed as soon af-
ter poisoning as possible.
The Farm Bureau is instigating a
campaign against sparrows by plac-
ing poisoned wheat in the hands OF
community leaders for distribution
in small quantities. Each commun-
ity is requested to poison on one
day, designated by the community
leader, SO that the work will be more
effective.

GROWING HEAD LETTUCE.
(Letter from Secretary of State
Farm Bureau received by County
Agent.)

Answering your question as to
what variety of head lettuce is best
will say that the farmers in the low
er valley are using the New York,
which can be purchased at any re-
liable seed house. although the State
Farm Bureau will probably make ar
|rangements for any seed desired by
Idaho growers. The proper time to
plant head lettuce for fall CROP is
between the 25th of July and the
9Th of August. The market is sta
Iple and there is a demand in all the
|1arge cities, however we market the
majority of ours in the central states
such as Chicago, Cincinnati and
Toledo. I would not advise raising
jthis crop in large quantities until
the territory in which the proposed
planting is we'll tried out, as to eli
matte and soil conditions. One thing

M PHILOSOPHY FOR 1922.

If we lived in a garden of flowers
and spent our time trying to make
the rose bushes grow nothin' but
thorns, encouraging the bugs an
beetles to eat up everythin' in sight
till the place was like a weed bed
everybOdy'd think we were crazy,
wouldn't they? But we don't do
that. We try to forget the thorns.
We spray and turn UP the ground,
and we fertilize the shivering little
weak fellows that look sickly, till
have something fine an strong
an sweet to look at and enjoy. How
is it we don't do this in the garden
of life? Why don't we forget all
about the thorns in the cranks an
"good for nothin's" and cultivate
the glory of God that's in everyone
of them? What a fine world we'd
have if we only treated humans like
we treat potatoes.

GETTING DOWN TO BEDROCK
ON TAX ISSUE

When the county assessors assem-
bled in a state meeting here in jan
uary and endorsed a proposal to
abolish the state board of equaliza-
|tion and substitute Therefore a state
tax commission, they pointed out the
greateat fault in our present tax
system and offered TO the state a
remedy to get real results. The as
SCISSORS are in constant and direct
touch with the question of taxation.
They have a better idea of valua-
tions than any other set of men in
the state. They realize the import
ance of fair equalization Of values.
And their conclusions, individual
and collective, are that the creation
of a state tax commission offers the
solution and is a step in the right
direction to our taxation problems.
The Capital News feels more than
ever justified at it's conclusion, set
Iforth in it's issue Wednesday, Jan.
IS, two days prior to the time the
assessors recommended the abolish
ment of the state board of equaliza-
ton and creating in it's place a state
tax commission, since the assessors
have endorsed its stand. In that
issue the Capital News said in dis
cussing the taxation address of John
D. Robertson, state tax agent:
I'VE should insist that the
next legislature re-enact a law
bringing the tax commission
back into power with the i'm
provement hat the members of
this commission be elected in
stead of appointed and that
their terms alternate. We can
afford to abolish many of u
existing commissions and some
or our boards and numerous
offices to make way for this
essential. And in that connec-
ton the people could further
hell themselves by amending
the constitution to vest in this
commission the powers and
duties of the state board OF
EQUALIZATION. 1t is no reflection
on the present board or on past
boards to say that such a step
will remove the equalization
question, which has a direct
bearing on taxation, from poll
tics"
We can talk definitely about the
burdensome taxes and 'recite con-
tinually that the burden is getting
to be too great to carry, but the only
way that we can hope to get relief
is to place the entire issue of rev.
enue and taxation in the hands of
men qualified to administer the pow
err that We can give them to reduce
the taxing powers of local boards,
ITO regulate the taxation on proper
ty and most important of all, to see
that each and every class of proper
ty pays its proportionate share into
the Golfers of this state and thus
bear it's rightful burden of taxation.

people of this state the fact that the

power to make it's work effective

The news of the death Of Alva
Adams, some time governor of Colo
RADIO, brings to mind days of long ago
when Albion academy was one of the
principal cultural centers of southern
Wisconsin. Mr.. Adams received his
undergraduate training at Albion acad-
envy in the days before the civil war.
/ Among the men who became prominent
in the life of the state and nation J. @.
Emery, Senator Knute Nelson and Prof.
r. B. Anderson are still in active serv-
ice, but the large number of men and
women who sixty years ago were stu
dents in the academy have journeyed
to the land beyond. The founders and
faculty of the Albion academy of half
century ago represented nigh-mind-
ed and highpurposed idealism in west
ern American life and their influence
placed it's indelible influence upon Dane
and Rock counties, and reached with
splendid vitality into the life of the
whole state and far beyond it's borders.
1t developed leadership of chat sturdy
type which sought to serve rather than
chase the dollar, and in the measure
that these pioneers of education at
tanned their purpose have been bless
ing and power, and their memory will
forever be green in the hearts of like
minded cultural descendants. The walls
of old Albion ought to be rebuilt. Some
day a new seer, like Nehemiah of old,
will make the fallen cultural citadel a
new fortress of strength to the spirit
ual hosts coming after us. We mourn
the loss of Alva Adams and glory in
the memory Of his life.
