HOPE TO REPORT
DEBT FUNDING BILL
Agreement Expected at Ses'
sion of Senate Finance
Committee Tomorrow.

Senate republican leaders expressed
the hope last night that an agree
ment would be reached and a report
made to the Senate tomorrow on the
foreign debt funding bill. Informal
conferences among them yesterday
gave them the basis for the belief.
they declared.
The consensus of opinion of the
! party chiefs was that the House bill
would be taken, but that the clauses
In it specifying payment on interest
| emi-annually and an interest rate
at S per cent would be stricken cut
1t is about questions involved N
two provisions that the opposition in
the Senate Is expected to revolve
Democrats generally have declared
the two provisions must be included
in any measure dealing with the for
eign debt.
It was said by the republican lead
ers. who have the matter in hand
that some Of their own membership
did not approve of provisions re-
stricting the supervisory commission
in its negotiation with foreign gov
ernments on the question of interest
payments and the interest rates.
The original law permitting the
loans to foreign governments pro-
vided that the interest rate should
| he the same or approximately equal
to the interest which this government
ia having on its own bonds. Some
! of the senators who opposed the pro.
vision for a per cent rate said they
had no objections to the provision
| contained in the existing law. as II
| would allow more latitude.
Full Committee Called.
The full membership of the finance
committee, to which the debt funding
| measure was committed, has been
called to meet Monday to consider
the whole question. 1t was evident
| however, that controversies are due
within the committee and some OF
it's members hesitated at the sugges-
.tion that an agreement would come al
| easily or as quickly as the leaders
declared probable.
| The measureS cannot be taken ur
immediately. even though It is turned
over to the Senate the first of the

Mrs. Giles Scott Rafter declared at a
meeting of the united citizens play
ground committee last night at the
Public Library. She added that the
Fairgrounds are covered with mud

and are a source Of discomfort from
dust the other three months.
The committee WAC discussing the

Recommendation Made.
The subcommittee :. specifically
recommended several matters con-
tained in the children's bureau sur

With this army he has been resisting

Mustapha Kemal's name is known
throughout the near east, where he
has been far more powerful than the

more to effectively combat several in

FAIRBANKS IN "THE THREE
MUSkETEF2S - COMING TO
kENWORTHY THEATRE

Predictions are being made that Tho
screening of Alexander Dumas i'm
mortal story, 1.-THE Three Musketeers'
by Douglas Fairbanks will stand
forth in motion picture history as an
aDochal event and that it Will popu-
larize for all time the costume photo
play
Productions of this sort, even when
based on the fictional writings OF such
masters os Dumas, have always been
considered to be in 'the danger zone"
because 1T has never been established
beyond question that the American
public would receive the costume play
with the same enthusiasm that has
been accorded features more modern
IN locale and setting
1t has always been Fairbanks con
tention, however, that any story suf-
ficiently powerful and gripping in
drama is bound to succeed.
"A popular picture nowadays" said
the star, must be logical; it must
have comedy and pathos, but above
all it must be human. Any story that
is human will succeer regardless of
whether the players wear wigs and
short pants or are CARRIED in pajalnas.
Drama was the same in the Seven !
teenth Century as it is today. This !
may be the gasoline age of civiliza-
ton, but it hasn't altered human |
emotions appreciably- People still |
laugh and cry and give vent to anger |
And they are still inordinately Curl
Gus. In fact, we progress because we
are curious. People of today wonder
if in the olden days kings and queens
and dukes and lords were swayed by
the same passions and emotions that
now rule humanity. To satisfy in a
measure this curiosity we have made
4 celluloid reproduction of The Three
and we have crammed I
nto it everything that is dramatic,
instructive, human, amusing and en-
We have tried to twang
every emotion in the human system,
ust as D'Artigan did in his memoirs
Ind as Dumas did in his great novel;"
In the face of the business read
ustment that the country has been
acing, Fairbanks has spent more
money on this production than on any
picture he ever before undertook, all
because he has confidence in the We
licle and in the amusement-seekingl
,ublic. 1.-THE Three Musketeers'' is

THE RELATIVE PROFIT
OF COMPETING CROPS
Byron Hunters Investigations Are
Reported in Bulletin Form.

In most of the irrigated districts
of Southern Idaho from six to ten
field crops can usually be grown
Under such conditions farmers are
usually at loss to know which crops
to select IN the organization of their
farms for it is very difficult to Judge
which crops are most profitable. To
throw some light on this problem the
Idaho Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton, in 1919, began study in Twin
Falls County OF the cost of producing
and the relative profitableness Of
wheat, sugar beets, potatoes, beans,
alfalfa hay, and red and alsike clover
seed.
A bulletin covering the results Of
this study for the seasons Of 1919
and 1920 has just been issued. It
shows the cost per acre and their
relative profitableness per acre and
per dollar expended in their produc-.
ton; the range in the cost of pro-
QuclHS odCu crop, Inc relation De-
tween yield per acre and the cost
per unit; and the quantities of ma
terials and the hours of man and
horse labor required to produce an
acre of each crop.
The study shows there was a very
wide range in the cost of production,
about SO per cent of the farmers be-
ing above and so per cent below the
average. This indicates the possibil-
ity of increasing efficiency on many
of the farms. The bulletin shows
clearly that there is direct relation
between yield per acre. and cost per
unit, the cost per unit decreasing as
the yield per acre increases. Per-
haps the most dominant factor in
the profita bleness of a
crop was the price or value per unit.
A copy Of this bulletin may be had
by writing to the Director Of the Ag-
ricultural Experiment Station, Mos

BOISE VALLEY HOLSTEIN
MAKES HIGH RECORD
Shows Value of Official Testing

! The Dairy Husbandry Department
mas Just received from the Holstein
Friesian Association of America, the
official record of Viola Shadeland No
l541S4, q Holstein COW owned by f,
Q. Johnson of Boise.
She made 19,125.6 pounds of milk
and 690.01 pounds of but terlat, equiva-
lent to S62.5 pounds of butter. The
test was started when she was nine
years and two month of age. This
places her third in her class in Idaho,
being surpassed only by Idaho Violet
Posch Ormsby owned by the Univer-
sity of Idaho and Golden Hero's
Queenie Lass, a Guernsey COW owned
by Henry Schick of Bull Viola is
the third COW in rank for milk pro-
duction being the third COW to pro-
duce over 10000 pounds In a year in
this state.
Viola was bred by Badger G. Frost
of Central City, Nebraska, and was
sired by Chief Shadeland, a half
brother to Missouri Chief Josephine
that held the worlds milk record many
years ago with a production of 26,961 |
pounds of milk and 925 pounds of i
butter. The dam of Viola is Viola v
I'd who had a record of 22.094 pounds
of milk and 851 pounds of butter in
a year.
Thus she inherits high production
on both sides and her record just com
pleted is one more argument in favor
Of selecting foundation stock with
high producing ancestors. This COW
produced as much milk as four or
five average Idaho cows. Why milk,
iced, and care for four when one will
10 the same job and do it more err
iciently?
Your future herd depends on your

way to know whether you have the
light kind or not is to test them Of J

potatoes are not desirable for cult

Many growers have the mistaken
Idea that seed treatment is a panacea
for all the ills to which the potato
is subjected. However, this is not
the case. The diseases which are
controlled by seed treatment are
very limited. In addition to seed
treatment other precautions must be
taken to control our common potato
diseases. Clean, treated seed, plant

yield of clean. healthy potatoes. If
any one of these factors is neglected.
large decreases in yield may be ex-
pected. :.
Seed treatment is necessary, how

Certain precautions are necessary
in order to secure the best results
from seed treatment. The best chem /
ica1 for this purpose is corrosive

This is d fairly unstable chemical and

therefore, if potatoes are cut, dirty

SMITH IN SEARCH
 FOR ROY JOHNSON
TO BEGIN STILL HUNT
Tom Johnson Leader on Fatal Night with Roy an Able Second
 No Word of Fugitive.

George w. ("Smoky") Smith, who apprehended Tom Johnson last week, will today begin a still" hunt for Roy, he declared and added that he did not mind the fact being, publish ed- Smith believes that Roy John son is still in Faulkner county and will undertake his hunt with this theory in mind.
 Roy Johnson will be much harder to take into custody that Tom prov ed, Smith said, and may require more prolonged search. As was the case in the first hunt, Smith will have the advantage of being thor oughly familiar with the country through which it is pushed and of knowing all residents in the sections travelled.
 The next "break" in the murder story will be either the capture of Roy or further confession from Tom Johnson at the state penitentiary. The statements made by Mon Hon. singer and Myron Wright at the jail here will be used as the wedge for forcing more details out of the prisoner, who up to now has limited his admissions to what happened early in the night until he became so drunk as not to know what he him. self or other members of the party were doing.
 More than the average number of "breaks' have marked the course of the Johnson murder story. First WIS the report that George Hopkins was murdered, then the discovery of his wife's body and what was brought out at the inquest, then the capture of Tom Johnson and finally the arrest of Wright and Honsinger.
 No loophole is seen for Roy if he should prove that Tom Johnson was the aggressor at the fatal party and that he merely followed his fathers lead Wright and Honsinger say that Roy was slightly less under the influence of whiskey than was the old man, but as the evidence of serious if not deadly trouble became more apparent, Roy joined in with the old man and ably backed up anything he started. Guilt of the two murders, if established, would be shared equally by the pair.
