REHABILITATION WORKER
AT SEATTLE MEETINGI

Joseph Sudweeks, in charge of the
local unit of rehabilitation work of
disabled veterans of the world war,
returned Sunday from lwo-day con-
ference of employees of the veterans
bureau who are working with agricul-
tural trainees in the 18th district, held
at Seattle August 18 and 19.
About thirty employees were present
from Washington, Oregon, Idaho and
Alaska, the territory included in the
18th district. The convention was
devoted to the discussion of the train
ing of disabled men in the various
branches of agricultural pursuit in
order to fit them to take up a voca-
ton.
Special problems of the conference
were the matters of project training
wherein the ex-service man is given
actual experience in farm work, the
placing of men on their own farms
and the training of men in their
academic ork.
Within the thirteenth district six
hundred men are being trained in the
various branches of agriculture
Some 225 are taking project training
ut is the desire of the government
to fit these men for the capacities
they will fill and the task is a large
one,' said Mr.. Sudweeks.

leo BROS. COLLECT
INSURANCE MONEY
JUDGE DIETRICH HANDS DOWN
DECISION INVOLVING 5000
IMPROVEMENTS POSSIBLE

Judge DIETRICH of the federal court
handed down a decision Monday fav-
orable to Leo Brothers, in the case of
Leo Brothers VS.. the New Brunswick
Fire Insurance company and the
Norwich Union. The amount involved
was $4,000, insurance on the vinegar
plant operated by Leo Brothers,
which was destroyed by fire in July,
1921. The case has been followed
with no little interest by Moscow peo-
pie, the action of the insurance com
panies, in refusing to pay the loss,
having materially retarded the growth
of an important local industry, which
has been awaiting favorable decis-
ion in order to be able to make neces-
sary improvements.
The insurance companies based
their case on the fact that Fred
Veatch, their local representative,
who wrote the insurance, was heavily
interested with Leo Brothers in the
ownership of the plant and buildings,
and also claimed that the descriptions
were wrong, there being two risks
instead of one. Both contentious were
set aside by the judge in rendering his
decision.
few weeks ago Judge Edgar c.
Steele of the district court handed
down a decision favorable to the Leo
Brothers, as against another insur-
ance company, where $4,000 was in
volved, making total of $4,000 which
the company will receive in insurance
money.
1t is the purpose of the company
now to go ahead with much needed
improvements which have been need
ed ever since the fire

UNIVERSITY COW
SECOND in STATE
71.57 POUNDS OF BUT.
TERFAT IN THIRTY DAY
PERIOD

Idaho Madison Ormsby Girl, Hol-
stein cow, bred and owned by the Uni
versity of Idaho, has recently made
thirty-day record in milk and butter
fat production that gives her second
place in her class in the state of
Idaho.
In these thirty days of production
she gave 2394.9 pounds of milk and
71.57 pounds of butterfat. During
seven days of the test which she is
now on she produced 5873 pounds of
milk and 1918 pounds of butterfat.
In one day she produced 856 pounds
of milk or more than ten gallons.
In 331-day test prior to the one she
is now undergoing, this Holstein pro-
duced, according to official figures
just returned by the Holstein -Friesan
12884.4 pounds of milk and
1928 pounds of butterfat. She began
this test at the age of 4 years,
months and 6 days.
Idaho Madison Ormsby Girl is the
dam of one of the Holstein bull calves
loaned to the farmers of the commun-
ity of Weston, Idaho, to be used in
bettering the standard of dairy COWS
in that section.

Will RE0RGANIZE
U.I.CADET CORPS
MILITARY DEPARTMENT PLANS
CHANGE In II. 0. Il. c.
COMPANIES

Reorganization of the cadet corps
so that 1t may more readily lend it
self to the maneuvering of the regular
army will be one of the outstanding
changes made in the department of
military science and tactics at the
University of Idaho this fall, accord
ing to Captain Claudius l.. Lloyd, in
structor in the department.
The corps will be organized so as
to consist of two battalions of three
companies each and will be handled
by student colonel, lieutenant col
onel and two majors. Each company
will contain fifty-eight men or be
equal to the war strength of a pla-
toon. Each battalion will be equal
to the war strength of company.
The reorganization of the university
cadet corps will be made possible by
the increased enrolment expected this
fall, said the captain, and will greatly
facilitate the handling of the corps for
ceremonial and tactical purposes.
In speaking of the work of the
cadet battalion at the university, Cap
tain Lloyd spoke very highly OF the
showing made by those students who
went to the summer camp of the
university and college r. o. T. G. units
at Camp Lewis this summer.
Among seven competing teams, the
Idaho representation won second
place, in spite of the fact that most
OF the men had never practiced shoot
ing on anything more than an inn
proyised range. This netted the insti-
tuition a beautiful silver loving cup.
In addition each member received q
national match badge.
1.-The rifle shooting team was COM
posed of Walter G. Chubbuck, Black
foot, captain; Harrison r. Armstrong,
Moscow, coach; e. Fred Creque, Sc
attic, manager; and the following
shooting members: John Rasmussen,
Shelley; Lewis H. Russell, Payette
Bryan B. Bundy, Culdesac; Vaughn
Price, Twin Falls; Roy X. Hendrick-
son, Lief E. Field, Moscow.
James A. (Babe) Brown from Ida
no, was the only man in the entire in
fantry camp at Camp Lewis to make
the qualification of pistol expert. In
addition twelve other men from Idaho
qualified for marked proficiency in
their work. They were:
Advanced course men: Bryan B.
Bundy, Culdesac. VIM Carpenter,
Boise; Robert M. Cummings, Wallace;
William w. Gartin, Caldwell; Abe
Goff, Walla Walla, Wash; Guy o.
Penwell, Moscow; Vaughan A. Price,
Twin Falls; John Rasmussen, Shell
ley. Basic course men: Marvin NJ
Scott, Palouse; Theodore j. Schwartz,
Palo Alto, CAL; Roy H. Hendrickson.
Lewiston; Walter c. Chubbuck, Black
foot.
THE camp was so organized at
camp Lewis that every advanced stu
dent who must have had two years of
basic military work in the universi-
ties and colleges, had an opportunity
to get practical experience in the
commanding of troops. At this task
and with all others, the Idaho cadets
were well at the forefront Abe Goff
OF Idaho, was called on perhaps more
than any other one individual to take
command of the cadet corps"
About forty members of the uni
vers1ty corps attended the summer en-
campment which was conducted un-
der the command of Col. E. R. Chris
man, head of the military department
at Idaho, who has had charge of the
for severarl years.

AUTOMOBILE RUNS DOWN
WOMAN AT 3RD and MAIN.

Another auto accident was added to
the number rapidly accruing at the
intersection of Third and Main streets
Wednesday when car belonging to
c. w. Cowne ran down young woman
on the sidewalk at the F. A. David
& Sons mercantile establishment.
The car was, evidently, either com
ing up Third street or had turned
up Third after coming down Main.
judging from the tracks leading to the
sidewalk, where the accident occurred.
According to bystanders the woman
was crossing from the Corner Drug
store to Davids' corner when she
spied the car. She began running in
an endeavor to get across the street
before the car arrived, but it seems
that the driver tried to head her off
with the result that he drove the
machine up on the sidewalk and
crashed into her.
The driver threw on the emergency
brake when it became apparent to
him that he must hit the woman, as
is evident rom the tracks of the car
on the sidewalk and street.
The young woman was taken into
Davids' store and after few minutes
rest was none the worse for her ex-
perience though she was badly fright
ened and weak from terror.
Whether or not Mr.. Gown was
driving the car was not known as

accident occurred shortly after noon

INVESTIGATES use
WOODPRfSERVATIVE
WESTERN YELLOW PINE CRUDE
OIL NOT GOOD WOOD
PRESERVAWVE

An article by DR.. Henry Schmitz,
in charge of the forestry laboratory
at the University of Idaho, in regard
to the utilization as a wood preser-
vative Of the crude oil obtained by
the distinctive distillation OF pine
stumps, has just been published in
the Journal of Industrial and Engin-
eering Chemistry
The Investigations of DR.. Schmitz
show that the low toxicity and the
high rate of evaporation Of crude oil
made from the distillation of western
yellow pine make it Of little or no
value as a wood preservative. 1t
may, however, be adapted to special
uses in the manufacture of shingle
stains, preservative paint, etc.
A new method of determining the
toxicity of wood preservatives was de-
veloped from the Investigations. By
this method the wood is impregnated
with the preservative then actually
decayed by wood destroying fungi
This method, though complicated
gives results which are comparable
to those that obtain under ordinary
conditions when treated wood is sub
jected to wood destroying fungi.
"This new method of determining
the toxic properties of wood preserv-
atives," said Dr. Schmitz, "has been
very favorably received by both forest
pathologists and forest engineers.
The experiments were made as a
result Of numerous inquiries that have
been received at the school Of for
estry for the past several years. The
scarcity of information available
necessitated the investigation Of the
properties of the oil and it's qualities
of permanence in preservation Of
woods"

F. A. DAVID MAKES QUICK
TRIP TO ALBERTA CITY

F. A. David, head of the firm of F.
A. David & Sons, returned Monday
from a hurried trip to Calgary, AL
berta. Mr.. David left Moscow last
Thursday afternoon and by making
close connections was able to reach
home Monday morning, making rec
ord trip. During the time he was gone
he spent SO hours on the train.
While there are some good crops In
the district which he passed through
in Canada, he states that the grain is
spotted and that the average will not
be high. Conditions are just fair in
the Alberta towns.
Mr.. David says that Moscow is
better and looks better than any town
he saw on the trip. The tons do not
have the appearance of permanency
and prosperity that exists here.

Don't Follow Moon Rule.

Some gariners formerly believed
in planting Irish potatoes an;; certain
other garden crops according to the
signs of the moon. No one seems ia
know how the old moon theory origi-
mated, but it seems to date back to
prehistoric times and probably was
tased upon the method of keeping
time by moons rather than by months
There is no definite experimental data
to show that the moon has any in
fluence one way or the other upon
plant growth, and experienced garden
ers prefer to plant their potatoes at
a time when the weather and soil
conditions arc right rather than ac-
cording to the phase OF the moon.
Experienc. has shown that the point
of most importance is to have the
land in frst-class condition for plant
ing, then proceed to plant as soon
as weather conditions permit.
A dwarf or smooth variety OF
English peas may be planted about
the same time rs Irish potatoes, or
just as soor as the ground is dry
enough to work in the early spring.
Here again soil preparation is i'm
portant, and the ground should be
made fine and mellow before plant
ing. Opinions differ as to the depth
to which the seed peas should be
covered. Some authorities claim they
should be covered as much as inches,
while others maintain that 2 or 3
inches is sufficient. Much will de-
pend, however, upon the character Of
the soil in which the crop is planted.
If the soil is a Light sandy loan and
Inclined to Gry out quickly, the peas
should be covered to inches. But
if the soil is rather heavy and inclin-
cd to pack closely, they should not
be covered more than to 2 inches.
The varieties of peas having wrinkled
seed coats snould not be planted un-
til about two weeks after the smooth
varieties. They are just g little more
susceptible to injury from frost and
will mature abou.. as carly if plant
ed when the ground has slightly
warmed.
