WHEAT PROSPECTS
Are IMPROVING
FAIR YIELD FALL GRAIN PRE-
DICTED--SPRING CROP IN
NEED OF RAIN

AS the summer progresses, even
though the usual June rains did not
come in the Palouse country, and the
Fourth Of July passed without any rain
there are evidences that the yield of
fall wheat will not be as light as
conditions two or three weeks ago in
dicated. The wheat crop in this fav-
ored section has way of coming in
strong on the home stretch, even when
conditions seem anything but favor
able, due to the fact that the soil re-
tains the moisture.
Harry Whittier, of the Moscow State
bank, has been out in the country
more or less the past few days and
reports marked improvement in crop
conditions over two weeks ago. He
states that in his opinion the pros
poets are now 20 per cent better than
at any time during June. While some
fields look ragged and uneven, many
fields Of fall wheat promise a good
yield. He believes, with ground shad-
ed, as it is now, the condition will i'm
prove between now and harvest, and
if there should be rain within a
few days marked improvement would
result.
j. j. Keane, pioneer farmer and
real estate man, drove down through
the Genesee country Wednesday and
says that he finds a. great improve
ment in the prospects over few
weeks ago. While the spring grain,
unless rain comes shortly, will be
almost a failure, he predicts fair
crop of fall wheat, and says the story
told by the threshing machine will
surprise some of the people who have
been predicting a light crop.
The hay harvest is practically COM
pleted and the tonnage of alfalfa and
timothy, all over Latah county and
southern and eastern Whitman coun-
ty. is the biggest in a number Of
years.

MISSIONARY WORKERS HOLD
AN INTERESTING SESSION

The Women's Home Missionary So
ciety of the Methodist church met
Wednesday afternoon in Epworth
hall and enjoyed most interesting
session. Miss Ruth Fogle led the de-
votional session and presented the
patriotic program in .reverent and
impressive manner. Then followed
a short business session, after which
Mrs Will F. NMorgareidge and Mrs.
John King gave interesting reports
from the annual conference meeting
held in Walla Walla, June 20 and FL.
Both reports were splendid and we'll
given. One pleasing feature of the
report was the news that the Moscow
auxiliary ranked first in all the lead
ing points The echos from the pro-
grams given by the two ladies were
ms spring and well worth hearing,
each session of the Walla Walla meet
ing being we'll received. Nor did they
forget to add with what genuine hos
pitality they were entertained by the
people of that CITY

few ATTEND Meeting
OF commerce CHAMBER

1t may have been the warm wea-
ther; it may have been because it
was just after the Fourth of July,
or it may have been because the busi-
ness men have not become used to
the evening meeting of the chamber
of commerce, which is scheduled to
take place at $50 on the first We'd
nesday of each month. Whatever
the cause, the attendance at the dim
ner Wednesday evening was the
smallest in many months, and but
little business was transacted.
j. w. Lieuallen, of the Legion
committee in charge of the Fourth of
July program, made partial report
on the celebration, but stated that
the finances had not been checked up
to a point where a complete report
could be madee.
Pesident G. A. Hagan complimented
the Legion on the very successful
celebration and said it was the best
Moscow had ever held and that the
business interests fully appreciated
the efforts put forth by the Legion.
The matter of continuing the
evening meetings was re-
ferred to the board of directors and
a report will be made at the noon
day luncheon, next Wednesday,.

AUXILIARY women ARE
APPRECIATIVE OF help

The dinner and lunch served by
the Women's Auxiliary of Dudley
Loomis post of the American Legion,
on July 4, was a decided success. The
spacious Williamson building was a
mass of evergreens and beautiful
flowers. Six tables extending the en-
tire lengt hof the long room were
decked in white, and on them great
baskets and vases Of fragrant roses,
velvety pansies and Shasta daisies and
at the end of the room large pic
ture of President Harding. Overhead
were great streamerS of red, white
and blue, and from every nook and
corner and high over all, waved "Old
Glory"
Not only was the dinner here a
success, but the ladies from the diff
erent churches and societies VINO
served at the many different places IN
the city all reported a splendid
success. Each and every place shone
beautifully in red, white and blue and
"Old Glory" reigned supreme.
The ladies of the auxiliary of the
American Legion wish, through the
columns of The Star Mirror, to pub
licly express their appreciation to the
many who helped to make their din
ner a success; for each and every
donation; to all who so ably assisted
in preparing and serving.
The auxiliary is organized for the
sole purpose of encouraging and help
ing the boys who hope to soon have y
nice home of their own. One of the
aims the ladies have is to help all in
their power to get such home in
Moscow.

young men from Johnson, Washing

Ruby, charged with firing rifle at
the Northern Pacific passenger train,

city, Saturday night, was dismissed
this morning.
The boys, who were arrested at Elk
River Sunday night, where they had
gone to fish, claimed that they were
shooting firecrackers at the roadside
when the train came by, and their
story was corroberated by Pullman
parties who drove by at that time and
stated that the boys were shooting
firecrackers. Members of the train
crew were unable to swear that n
gun had been fired, and the road Of
ficials asked that the case be dis
missed.
The boys are all members of pio
neer families and have clean records,
and the dismissal of the case meets
with popular approval throughout the
district.

WESTERN COWBOY
NOT TOUGH GUY
PRINCETON UNIVERSITY MAN
TELLS OF MISCONCEPTION
OF EASTERNERS

Princeton, N. j., "a. P.)-When the
movie fans get the truth about the
cowboy from this stately seat of learn
ing they may be surprised. The
word does not come from this seat
of learning exactly but rather from
a product Of it, Philip Ashton Rollins,
trustee Of Princeton, and some time
cowboy when the West was raw
Football was not rough enough for
Rollins in the old days of the flying
wedge SO he tucked his diploma un-
der one arm and gun under the
other, took Horace Greeley's tip and
went out to see the country.
One of the first things Rollins dis
covered when he got of west was that
he had little or no use for the gun
and even less for the diploma. The
fact that Rollins had made a very i'm
portant touchdown against Yale at
one time did not cause any western
mayors to meet him with band.
This cowboy historian says the real
cowboy was not much like the one
seen in the movies these days. The
real killers and bad men of the west
in the days now gone were not COW
boys at all but just tough guys"
The pistol had one use to which
the average cowboy would, from time
to time, enthusiastically devote 1t,
and that was the production of noise.
When put to use the weapon was
fired either directly upward into the
air or slantingly downward at the
ground, for the west had no blank
cartridges. On such occasions the
pistols effects would be supplement
ed by Indian-like screeches and coy
ote-like howls.
AS to the bad man, he was more
often boaster, this historian says.
Tazewell Woody, famous as Col.
guide in the west, was
standing in saloon with left elbow
on the bar, right hand hanging by
his side, and eyes luckily pointed at
the mirror behind the bar. He caught
in the mirror the reflection of a
head pOked momentarily into the sal
oon'se doorway, and belonging to a
man who had publicly stated his pur
pose of killing Woody at sight.
This man, having apparently
thought the coast to be clear and that
the saloon contained sufficient aud
leHce, tuIHeu HIS uOISe IOue tIIouSH
the doorway, and boldly said: Has
any gent here see that feller Woody?
I'm huntin' for him. At that instant
the man realized, for the first time,
that Woody was in the room and
he realized also that, though he him
self was facing Woody's back, the
mirror negatived this advantage He
saw that right hand hanging idly
down. The bad man backed out
the doorway and on his own
initiative rode out of the state.
