The Weather

All cold weather records for 1922
were smashed this week when the
thermometers took on sub-normal
temperatures and fell from 10 to 20
degrees below zero, according to
whose thermometer it happended to
be. About three O'Clock Thursday
morning seemed to be the lowest
temperature period of the cold
snap, when an old reliable ther-
mometer registered Is degrees be-
low in Kendrick.
Most of the plumbing in the
houses of this section was not put
IN to withstand such extreme cold,
consequently blow torches have been
IN great demand and the electrical
pIpe-thawlng equipment of the local
light company has been doing good
service.

GET PRIZE CAR OF
SEED POTATOES
Moscow Firm Buy Winning
Spuds of P. N. Show

Star Mirror: The Washburn 4 Will
son Seed company, IN keeping with
their policy of developing the best
products possible IN the Inland En-
pre- have purchased the car of
Melted Gem seed potatoes which
took the grand sweepstakes prize at
the Northwest Potato Show, Spok-
ane recently. Tne potatoes were
grown by j. j. Stutz of Dudley,
Idaho and, as is indicated, won over
potatoes of all classes at the show,
and are perhaps the finest car of
seed potatoes ever produced IN the
northwest. There were several
bidders for the potatoes, but the
local firm, realizing their value,
succeeded in securing them.
Herman Wilson, manager of the
Washburn 4 Wilson company, states
that the potatoes are among the fin
est he has ever seen, being almost
perfect IN every respect. Ihe bulk
of the car will .be used to supply
growers with whom the company
makes contracts this year, but there
Will be some available for other
growers.
Northern Idaho has come to be
recognized as the ideal place for
growing seed potatoes, and the in
dusirv promises III develop with
great rapidity. The seed for use IN
the irrigated sections of Idaho anC
Washington is grown, to a great
extent, IN the Inland Empire, ano
especially in north Idaho.

Big Land Deal

One OF the biggest land deals
made IN some time IN the Kendrlck
district was closed Tuesday, when
Julius Carl Giese secured title from
Thomas d. Parsons to 280 acres of
choice land on Drlscol ridge. The
consideration was S56,000. Negotia-
tions had been pending for the pur-
chase OF this land since 1919, the
owner, who lives IN Minnesota, hav-
ing some difficulty IN clearing the
title.
An inter estlng thing IN connec-
tion with the deal is the fact that
Mr.. Parsons bought the land IN
1903 for $500, thus making more
than forty thousand dollars on the
deal, besides getting a good profit
from his farming operations. This
is but fair example of the advance
in land values on tine productive
ridges in southern Latah county
Mr.. Giese has other land holdings
IN the kendrick district and wa:
glad to secure the additional land al
$500 an acre. e.-Star- Mirror.

Can't Catch Fish

c. B. Green, S. T. CaIlison and
son, Ben. returned Sunday, from
their fishing trip to the Clearwater.
They report fishing very bad. only
four trout being caught. Consider
ing the time, energy, work and fun
it required to capture these three
specimens. they ought to be worth
IN the neighborhood of $25 apiece.
e. B. Green is considered to be,
under ordinary conditions, the most
expert fisherman in Latah county;
Sam CaIlison is not very far be-
hind INN in experience and ability.
and Ben won't concede that his dad
can catch any more fish in day
than he can, SO the only conclusion
possible is, there ere no more fish
In the Clearwater.

Genesee News: Constructive crit
aclsm is beneficial to any commun-
ity. Nagglng and fault finding are
destructive. Yet both are to be
found everywhere.
Constructive criticism points out
the weak spots IN scheme or un-
dertaklng in falr-mlnded but
forceful manner. Nagging picks
it to pieces without reason or
remedy.
Often man is sincerely desirous
of doing something for the general
improvemnt of the town and COM
munity in which he lives. The i'm
provement he advocates may be of
no more benefit to him than to any
other citizen yet there is invariably
some one ready to impute selfish
or ulterior motive to his efforts.
In time such man, If he is not
endowed with extraordinary pa.
tlence. becomes weary OF repeated
nagglng and ceases his efforts fol-
the community GOOD.
The town gains nothing from this
nagging, but loses much through
the future apathy Of the one whose
efforts may have been unjustIy at
tackled.
Legitimate commendation is g
booster and builder.
Nagging is grave digger!

DAIRY
FACTS
sILo NECESSARY FOR DAIRY
inersass Of 7N Per Cent Made on Mis-
- souri, Farm by Feeding Cows
~ on silags.

No man who is milking q herd Of
q dozen or more cows can ever hope
to make maximum returns from his
herd without silo, according to e.
n. Harmon, dairy extension specialist
for the Missouri College Of Agricul-
ture. This statement was proved by
the Missouri Cow Testing associations
during the past year, as shown In the
following results:
Cows receiving silage produced an
average of 6,798 pounds Of milk. 266.S
pounds of fat and profit above feed
cost of $1OS6O per COW. Cows with
out silage averaged $3.50 pounds Of
milk, 252.7 pounds Of fat and profit
Of $1O1.O2 per COW. The difference
was 600 pounds Of milk. 18.0 pounds
of fat and S7.5S cents per COW in one
year.
This means an increase Of IN per
cent in profit due to the silo. The
average man would 60 q long way to
market his wheat for IN per cent
more. 1t Is worth that much to build
silo and we must have lot more of
them before we will reach the economy
we should in butterfat production.

The rattlesnake catchers Of the

as live snakes at present are bringing
only 8 cents 4 pound, according to 7.
Gilbert Pearson, president Of the Ma
tional Association Of Audubon Soci'
etiss, who has Just returned from the
work of stalking out proposed 15O.-
OO0-acre tract in the southern tip OF
Texas AS a game and bird sanctuary.
The greatest rattlesnake establish
ment in the world Is maintained near
Brownsville by a dealer named King,
known as "Rattlesnake King" He had
more than 100000 rattlers In stock
during December, Mr.. Pearson said
These are sold to geological gardens
snake charmers, circuses, naturalists
and snake lovers all over the country,
but the demand has recently become
low. Many Mexicans earn their living
catching rattlers and are glad to get
even s cents a pound for them.

MORGAN is DESIRABLE HORSE
steady Inersass In Weight and Height
Of Animals Maintained at oev-
srnmsnt Stud.

(PrsDarsd by the United States DsDartmsnt
OF A8r1oulturel>
There has been q steady increase in
the weights and heights Of the horses
maintained In the stud at the United
States Morgan horse farm at Middle
bury. VT, says a recent department
circular No. 190. Breeding Morgan
Horses at the United States Morgan
Horse Farm" In 1911 the average
height Of mature stations was lab
hands and of mature mares 14.2M
hands. By 1915 these figures had been
raised to 1b and lab. respectively. and
by this year to 1bh and 14.8h.
The average weight Of mature stall
lions In 1911 was 1.025 pounds; in 1915,
1,040 pounds; and In 1921 1t had been
increased to 1900. During the same
period the weights OF mares went from
1,025 to 1,049 to 1908 pounds.
At the same time. however. the 9th
or qualities received Just as much con-
sideration as size. A frequent objec-
ton raised against the Morgan has,
been that 1t is too small, but the
steady improvement in scale and
weight ID making the modern Morgan
a handy and desirable horse for use
on farms. as pleasure saddle horses,
for police mounts, and for cavalry
purposes. II has good speed and ex-
ceptional endurance.
The government farm at Middle
bury was established to insure preaer-
vation Of the famous American breed,
and the stock at the farm is foun-
tainhead where good blood will al
ways be available. The circular just
mentioned contains information con-
corning foundation animals, the story
Of the movement to conserve the
breed, methods Of breeding and man
agement, show-ring records and the
records made by Morgans In endur-
ance contests held in recent years.
Since the early days Of the breed up
to the present time the Morgan has
repeatedly demonstrated his endur-
ance, one of the most desirable quail
ties in any horse, particularly q light
horse. In this publication attention ID
called to the great reputation made by
