Public Interest
Takes Big Slump.
Newspapers Call Core
spondents Home from
Washington Meet.
By J. +. JONES.


Observation-Disclosures edi-
tors who sent special correspondents
to the conference for the limitation of
armament are calling their writers
home on the ground that public in
terest in the affair has ceased to exist.
The next struggle on the part of the
Administration will be to put the four
power treaty through the senate.
While the opposition in that body has
not developed to any extent, neverthe-
less it is significant that some of the
leaders are pressing measures like that
of the soldiers bonus, agricultural
legislation and the tariff, and are in
sisting that congress must "close UP
shop by June l, and then adjourn
until after the fall elections. When
asked: "How about the treaties" the
statesmen are apt to act as though
they had been reminded of something
that had been overlooked. Some of
them reply, systematically: ooh, that's
so. Well, we'll, l don't know"
Others among them who appear to
have given more thought to the mat
ter differ as to whether the treaties
will be ratified at this session, or go
over until the next session-and a good
many have expressed themselves that
1T will be all right to wait awhile !"
There is no doubt but what the
administration is deeply concerned
about the sag in public interest. Sec
rotary of State Hughes is regarded as
the one who will have to direct the
fight for ratification, and upon the
success or failure of his efforts will
doubtless depend his whole political
future.

FARMER RELIEF
j Fl c PUSHED
Agricultural Conference
Should Lead to Con-
structive Legislation
By J. E. JONES.

WASHINGTON. : Three hundred
delegates have been attending the ag-
ricultural conference in Washington.
President Harding, in his address at
the opening session declared that
there should be developed thorough
code of law and business procedure,
with the proper machinery of finance,
through some agency, to insure that
turnover capital shall be as generous
ly supplied to the farmer and on as
reasonable terms as to other indus
tries" He added: can industry, more
vital than any other, in which nearly
half the nations wealth is invested
can be relied upon for good security
and certain returns"
There have been so many confer
ences" during the past two or three
years that there is something that is
foggy in the very word In the case
of the present conference there is hope
because it has in its makeup many
dirt farmers"-men who know from
their own experiences the difficulties
and troubles that are now almost para
lying the farm interests OF the Ma
ton.
While these men are laboring with
their intricate problems it is just as
well to note that practically all the
remedies that are being suggested by
way of legislation have already been
vigorously championed by the best
men in both branches of congress

Lose Hard Battle
At Boise Friday.
Inability to Convert free

Game.

Inability to shoot foul baskets cos,
the Caldwell high school basket ball
team one of the hardest fought con.
tests in the history of basketball in
this section when Boise took the long
end of 28-25 score at Boise FRIDAY
evening. Each team made 10 field
goals. Quinter for Boise converted
eight of 10 tries from the foul line
while Lowell and Hanley were able
to turn 10 tries into but five points
From the spectators standpoint, the
game was brilliant one.
AT all times during the 4O-minute
playing period the two teams were
running neck and neck race. With
but three minutes to play in the sec
ond half Caldwell was on the long
end of 24-22 score with every pros
peot OF winning the game Two passes,
intercepted in the middle of the floor,
paved the way for two long shots
which Robinson, Boise guard, con-
verified and the lead was not again
overcome.
For Caldwell E. Lowell and Field
were the bright lights although the
entire team played capably. This
week, two conference game are on the
schedule to be played on the home
floor. Friday evening Meridian will
play here and Saturday evening the
fast Mountain Home quintet will meet

Sparrows Can Be
Easily Poisoned.
Weather Conditions In
vite Eradication of
Pest Now.

If the farmers in the various COM
munities would cooperate at this time
the sparrow pest could almost be com
pletely eradicated from CANYON coun-
ty, according to a statement issued
Monday from the farm bureau. With
the ground covered with snow and as
a result feed hard to get the sparrows
swarm into poultry yards and hog lots
in quest of food, All that it is neces-
sary to do in such cases is to distribute
with proper precaution some poison
ed grain. Many farmers turnout the
county are taking advantage of the
opportunity and are coming to the
farm bureau office for sparrow poison.
Sparrows do a vast amount of dam
age each year and a saving to the
county would result if the farmers
would only cooperate at this favor
able time for their complete eradica-
ton.

MANY EGGS ARE
SOLD OUTSIDE
Eighty Per Cent Leave
Local Markets Thru
Association.

Eighty per cent of the eggs receiv-
ed at the Caldwell branch of the
Pacific Poultry Producers association
warehouse are being sent to outside
markets, according to a statement
made Monday by U L. Epson, mana
ger of this cooperative marketing
concern. But for the fact, the local
market for eggs would be glutted and
eggs here would be almost without
marketing value, in Mr.. Upsons opin-
ion. Only enough graded "Nu-Laid"
eggs are being sold in this territory
to keep markets supplied. The remain
der are going out and are being sold
on exactly the same basis as eggs
from the Portland branch of the con-
Germ.
AS a result of the effort of MIR. Up
son, freight rate reductions of $780,,
per hundred pounds on eggs has been
granted from Caldwell to the New
York market The rate heretofore
has been $3.S0H per hundred pounds
1t is now $500. Six weeks were re-
quired to obtain this reduction, the
old tariff being the same as the Port
land rate.
Other commodities should have
similar concessions and shippers can
get them if they go after them, in Mr..
Upson's opinion.
Asked how the association was pro-
crossing, Mr.. Epson said:
I'VE have our troubles like every
body else. Members were not fami-
liar with the grading idea and some
dissatisfaction has resultei from that.
One unfortunate thing that we have
to contend with and that all cooper
alive marketing concerns aust face
is the attitude of persons outside the
association. They reap the benefits
of the prices that the association Gre
ates and don't share its ex2c Use. Eggs
would be almost valueless on the To-
cal market now but for the associa-
ton lifting and reno ying so per cent
of this sections output.

ever, and | predict material increase
in the gross volume of the poultry
business here as the result OF the op-

Lindsay Volumes
Now at Library.
Minstrel Poets Poems
In Demand by Read
ing Public.

Among the most interesting of the
new books at the public library are six
volumes of Vachel Lindsay's works.
These books were purchased for the
library, by DIR. w. J. Boone of the
College of Idaho, from the remainder
OF the Vachel Lindsay Entertainment
fund.
Judging from the number who heard
him month ago, Vachel Lindsay was
greatly appreciated in Caldwell These
cold winter evenings afford an ex-
cellent opportunity to all who felt as
they heard him that they should like
to know him better and his poems are
much in demand.
"A Handy Guide for Beggars," and
Adventures While Preaching the
Gospel of Beauty" give an interesting
account of Lindsay's own life as he
tramped through the southern and
eastern states, giving his poetry to all
classes of people. They are both writ
ten in simple, easy, and readable
style and there is delightful touch of
humor, too.
The three volumes of poetry, "The
Congo" "The Chinese Nightingale, !"
and "Geferal William Booth Enters
into He} ven," will prove of special in
terest td those who heard the poet in
terpret them. Each of these volumes
corltaina shorter poems which are also
very readable.
