Low QUALITY seed
CAUSES POOR CROP
EXTENSION DIVISION EXPERTS
ISSUE BULLETIN ON IMPORT
ANCE OF TESTED SEED.

Low quality seed harvested last
season in many sections may be at
tributed in measure to the fact that
some growers having low quality
seed sold it to their neighbors at a
price somewhat below the prevailing
market price, according to uni
versity of Idaho extension division
bulletin issued Thursday
The farmers are facing exactly the
same proposition this year. In view
of the fact that foul seed is bound TO
produce a crop that has difficulty in
finding a ready market, some farm
ers will continue to follow the same
old practices. Laboratory tests show
that on the average five growers out
ten producing clover and alfalfa seed
have crop that contains nox1ous
weeds of which dodder is the worst.
The only sure means of knowing
that the seed is not foul is to secure
state test. Failure to receive an
analysis of seed before planting time
has caused many regrets
Pure Seed Important
1t is to the farmers benefit to OBJ
serve the Importance of pure seed.
The Idaho Pure Seed law is as bind
lllS OI tilt ldllIltI dS Ou Lie QcdlcI. :.
1t requires growers as well as deal
ers to sell only tested seed of alfalfa
and clovers that conforms state reg
ulations.
One of the best places to get low
quality seed containing many of our
most noxious weed seeds is at an
auction SALE" Samples examined at
various sales indicates this to be true.
In many instances a farmers low
quality seed could not be gotten rid
of otherwise. Buying tested seed
from a reliable dealer is the safest
plan to follow
Inspection will soon be under way
and it behooves all concerned to OBJ
serve requirements for the improve
ment of seed production in an effort
to bring Idaho grown seed up to the
position it should hold in the seed
trade.

CORRENCY COMPTROLLER
ANNOUNCES OPPOSITION

Washington-(A. .)-Comptrollel
of Currency Crissinger announced
Thursday that in the event of the en-
actment of soldiers bonus Legislation
providing for payment by adjusted
service certificates, that he would adj
wise the national banks to decline tc
accept the certificates as securities
for loans. Crissinger described the
proposed plan to use the certificates
as collateral for loans to so per cent
of their face value as the worst kind
of frozen credit
He added that while he is without
authority to order the national banks
to refuse to accept them as security
that he will strongly advise against
their acceptance.
Republican leaders disclosed Thurs
day that they are considering plan to
put the soldiers bonus bill through
the house under suspension of the
rules, which would shut out amend
ments of any kind and would limit
the debate to 40 minutes. Under this
plan a two-thirds vote is necessary
but leaders of the republican party be-
lieve this majority could be obtained
Representative Mondell of Wyom-
ing, majority leader, said Thursday
that he did not think the statement
made Yesterday at the White House
that Harding had not changed his po-
sition could be taken as an indication
that Harding, is prepared to veto the
bonus measure as now drawn, with
the bank provision in lieu Of cash
bonus.

COLUMBIA RIVER ROAD
NOW OPEN FOR TRAFFIC

Portland, Oregon=(A P)-The
Columbia river highway Oregon's
famous scenic route traversed every
year by thousands of tourists from all
parts of the country, is again open
for traffic after having been blocaded
for several weeks as result of a
freakish storm which swept the re-
gion in December.
A combination of sleet and snow
was piled in deep drifts along the
highway for many miles in MuItno-
nah and Hood River counties, shut
ting off all traffic, working a hard
ship on sections of the state which
normally depend upon the highway
for transportation facilities all the
year round, as well as preventing
sightseeing trips.
Multnomah county put crews of
men to work cutting a pathway
through the ice walls that covered
the highway, and the state highway
commission undertook to clear that
part of the highway in Hood River
county adjoining.
When the unusual storm swept the
Columbia River gorge railroads were
blocaded for several days, and many
automobiles overtaken by the storm
were stalled in deep drifts

sity of Idaho.

Professor Dale. eve grow the wool
that is sold in Boston, the wool mar
ket of the United States, and that is
made into cloth in the textile mills
of New England and later sold to the
clothing manufacturers of Chicago TO
be made up and resold to us at high
prices. We have the power, that fac
tor that makes the New England
states manufacturing centers. And
finally we have the capital-at least
for investment in oil wells.
Need Skilled Labor
There is just one reason why we
have not already become a manufac-
turing state. We have heretofore
lacked the skilled labor necessary, sbut
that feature is being gradually over
come, and there is nothing to hinder
Idaho from becoming a great manu-
featuring state in the future.
Statistics for 1920 show that the
manufacturers produced something
like eighty millions of dollars worth
of goods, or more than the combined
value of all the cereals, all the seed,
and fruits and vegetables raised in
Idaho that year. Plants classed by
the census taker as factories included
bakeries, laundries, railroad shops and
milling concerns.
"Of these at the present date the
lumber and timber industries are at
the top of the list with the milling
concerns a close second Dairy pro-
ducts also rank fairly high and con-
sugar refining is done with

400 new TEACHERS
NEEDED EACH YEAR
SIXTEEN HUNDRED STUDENTS
SHOULD BE PREPARING AS
HIGH SCHOOL INSTRUCTORS

Four hundred new high schoo
teachers are needed in Idaho every
year, according to statistics compiled
by the school of education of the
University of Idaho and announced
by Dean J. F. Messenger.
This means, according to Dean
Messenger, that 1900 Idaho students
ought to be preparing to teach ii
high schools, as it takes four years tC
complete the required university
work in preparation.
The estimate of an annual demand
of 400 is based on the fact that about
that number of persons are teaching
in Idaho high schools who were not
teaching in those schools last year.
Idaho Teachers Wanted
"It is not hardly desirable that
every high school teacher in Idaho
should be graduate of an Idaho in
stitution,' said Dean Messenger, "but
if this state is to do her share in the
nations work of preparing teachers,
she should prepare as many as she
uses.
MANY of our graduates go to other
states to teach and students from
other institutions in neighboring
states come here. This is quite de-
sirable but Idaho should train as
many to send away as she receives
1t is too much to expect that we
will be able to do this in the near
future, but it is worth while to note
the demand and opportunities.
Teaching is coming to be a safe,
attractive and reasonably remunera-
tive vocation and presumably after
high school graduates learn of the
possibilities, more of them will pre-
pare for high school teaching posi-
tons"

ALDERMAN HOMESTEAD MAY

Negotiations are under way for
the purchase of the home of the
late ARA Alderman, by the county
commissioners, to be used as the
children's home. If terms are
agreed upon, Mr.. G. L. Alderman
now the owner of his fathers home
stead, will take as part payment the
present children's home property
out the Barnesvil1e pike. The head
inspector of public buildings of the
state has been here and carefully
inspected the Alderman property, as
to it's present fitness for a chiTdren's
home, which he pronounced 0. K in
every respect, with the single excep-
ton of fire escapes. This house
contains IL rooms. IT will be re-
called that the commissioners have
been ordered to- provide better ia
cilities at the chiIdren's home, and
all the money available for the
change is $4,000, while the esti-
mated cost of Improvements order
ed by the state is almost double
that sum. It is figured that if the
Alderman home is purchased the
county will save by the transaction
about $4,000. The matter will
probably be settled one way or the
other, at the next regular meeting

CLASS OF BOYS
GIVES SPLENDID PROGRAM

At the meeting of the McCon-

League last Sunday night, the Sun
day school class of Mr.. Earle Eve
land had entire charge of the pro-
gram. No one else had part in it
outside of this class which is made
up of about 20 young men of ages
ranging from IA to 18. These
young men furnished the music al
SO. Among those who took part
were Arthur Ross, Ralph Dye, DON
aid Sims, Bernhard Mercer, Roy
Ferguson, Edgar Northrup, Wayne
Jackson, Edward Perkins, Chas.
Lindsay, and Harry Savage. The
orchestra was composed of Edgar
Northrup, Wayne Jackson, Harry
Savage, Edward Perkins, and Chas.
Lindsay. The last two played a
cornet duet, and Wayne Jackson
sang two special numbers, Edgar
Northrup playing the piano accom-
paniments, as well as for all the
music.
This is one of the 1ivest Sunday
school classes in the school, and
never fails to respond when called
upon. While Mr.. Eveland is proud
of hfs class, the class is just as
fond of their teacher. While all the
League meetings are well attended,
an unusually large crowd was pres
ent Sunday nfght-over 125 being
there. The week previous the Sunday
school class of Mr. o. p Lindsay, of
older boys, had charge of the pro-
gram, which was also a good one.
