The plan Of holding regional teach
ers' Institutes in Idaho entails heavy
expense upon members of the profess
sion living at remote points from the
meeting place. For instance, teachers
from Lemhi county are called upon to
make a journey from two hundred to
three hundred miles to Idaho Falls ev-
cry fall, pay their travelling expenses
and hotel bills while away, entailing
altogether considerably more than
they receive on salary account for the
period while away from actual school
room duty. The injustice Of the plan
appears all the more clearly when it
is seen that the home teachers at
these meeting places have no extra
ordinary expenses at all on account of
the Institutes, while the towns where
they are regularly held have rich
harvest of pickings from the gather
ings in their midst, for teachers must
live while away as well as at home
1t thus happens that the favored mu-
inequalities are strong for tho present
system. Every teacher is put down as
| spending as much as 500 in the fay
ored town while there. Therefore il
certainly pays that town.

Since the nomination of Albert
Amonson for the senate by the uncer-
tain process of writing in his name
became an assured fact he has receiv-
ed more congratulations than ever
came to him before in all his life
Taxpayers from the country districts
and without regard to party alleg-
lance are especially well pleased ut
the prospect of his election in No
vember, for with him in the senate
is hope of cooperation with the gov
ernor in legislation looking to relief
from tax burdens. The demand every
where in these days of reconstruction
Is for business men rather than for
partisans in all public offices and the
voters are telling Mr.. Amonson these
things as they wish him good health
and good luck.

RAPS AT GOODING.

An attack upon the wool schedule
of the tariff bill was made from a new
angle yesterday when Senator Hitch
cock of Nebraska, democrat, delved
into doggerel verse at the expense of
Senator Gooding of Idaho, republican,
reaiing his product to the senate.
"There was some reference yester-
day by the senator from Idaho to his
ownership of Sheep" said Senator
Hitchcock, land it suggested to me a
few verses, which | shall take the
liberty of reading as follows:
Their fleece was white as snow,
And everywhere that Gooding went,
The sheep were sure to go.
They followed him by night and day,
1t was against the rule.
They filed the stateman with dismay,
Tossed high the wool schedule.
And when the people found it out,
Their rage began a-waxing
They knew the presence Of those
sheep
Meant heavy tariff taxing.
But If the wool on Gooding's sheep,
For cloth for those who wear it,
Won't grow unless we tax our folks
Then they must grin and bear it.
But Gooding's case is only one
OF many like abuses,
OF taxes that the tariff lays
For private, selfish uses.
There are other raps at the Idaho
senator every now and then. Judge
Morgan, who is an actor as well as a
fine speaker and lawyer, in one of
his recent addresses, alluded to Mr..
Gooding's connection with House Bill
No. n, which was fathered and pass
ell by Gooding but ANONYMOUSLY We
toed by the president when its iniq-
tiles were discovered and pointed out
as a plan TO give Gooding and his as
sociates in the sheep business prac-
teal monopoly of the best range
lands in Southern Idaho. Here"
said Judge Morgan, 1--WE have a sem
ator of the United States using nis
position not for the public good but
for private gain to himself, which is
pretty b.a-ad," in perfect bleated Inn
itation of distressed lamb. The
house roared its appreciation Of the
rap.

A FARMERS DOLLAR.

Americas farm crops this year are
roughly estimated at $12,000,0O0,O0 900,
with probability that the total value
will be more. The money paid to the
farmers for what they raise will be
used in liquidating loans, erecting or
repairing buildings, buying machinery,
implements and merchandise. No in
considerable part of II may find its
way into the pockets of the automo-
bile manufacturers IL the farmers
have sufficient surplus, because they
have come to the realization that a
motor ear is almost essential on the
farm. The Wall Street Journal says:
''lf the average farm price of crops
and livestock in 1921 be compared
with the wholesale price of all other
commodities il will be found that the
purchasing power of the farmers dol
lar was about 81 cents. In other
words, It would take one dollars
worth of farm products to buy 81
cents worth of other commodities.
The individual farmers return is new
er larger. Ii a return on the value OF
the land be excluded, his wage for his
labor, risk and management averages
less than $500 year. Consequently.
when that wage shrinks in purchas-
ing power, the effect on business is
quickly felt as it was in 1920 and
1921"
IL is estimated that the lowest point
in farm purchasing power was during
the close of 1921 when the buying
value of the farmers dollar fell TO
so cents. There has been improve
ment since then in the price of farm
products, and another important thing
TO take into consideration Is that this
years crops are being produced at
less cost than formerly. Commodity
prices have responded to upward ten
denotes, just as farm products have
become more valuable, thus the farm
er's dollar Is not worth quite as much
as it was several months ago. The
Wall Street Journal thinks the present
purchasing value of the farm dollar is
about ~ cents.
The farmer was hard hit, il is point
ed out, when he raised crops at the
peak of initiation and was forced to
sell them when deflation was well UNI
der way. He was the first hit and
also the hardest hit because commod-
ity prices did not begin to fall until
the prices of farm products had
reached new low levels. Eventually,
however, these things right them
selves. The farmer has about decid-
ed not to be sorry for himself any
longer. His condition is not yet ideal,
but il is much improved.

Elizabeth As She Was
From the Chicago Post.

From tle Chicago Post.
 It seems likely that the majority of educated people have in their mindsa picture of Queen Elizabeth of England as a tall, large-framed, stately red-haired woman. All her full-length portraits give the impression of height and physical strength, while the color of her hair is so often referred to- not only in history but in miscellaneous literature, as to be accepted as an unquestioned fact. Moreover, she has been definitely described by the historians as woman of almost masculine type in size and physical vigor
 The Queens latest biographer Frederick Chambern declares that all writers without exception who have dealt with her personality have portrayed her big woman physically as well as mentally, and he sneers at them in consequence. He claims to have spent years in research mad to have proved that Elizabeth was not over about feet inches in height was thin rail, except in later years, when she was affected by dropsy; that she had an olive instead of blond complexion; that she was never strong and had many desperate illnesses; was nervous wreck, and after 33 years of age was as bald as a billiard ball.
 Mr. Chamberlain, whose feelings have been hurt by some American reviewers rather sighting and superficial comments on his book, declares that he has uncovered hundreds of facts about Elizabeth which have never before been printed As he is man we'll respected in English literary circles, there is no reason to doubt his word, and he has probably done some thing worth while for the truth of history But it seems rather strange that so erroneous an idea of the great Queens personality has come to prevail. It is true that it is 300 years since Elizabeths reign ended, but though there were no daily newspapers at that time which recorded all the doings of the great and included minute descriptions of their appearance on every pub- lie occasion, it was a century of much writing, and it naturally seems as if many pen picture of the Queen should have been drawn and sur viyed the lapse of time.
 There is little probability that twentieth cen tury celebrities will go down into history with any uncertainty about their personalities, though to be sure the camera does not tell the color of their eyes or hair But painted DOT traits in these days are commonly of unflatter- ing accuracy, and 500 years hence there will probably be no difficulty, in case anyone wishes to know, in ascertaining what was the color of say, Princess Mary's eyes. Incidentally MT. Chamberlain must have had some interesting experiences in his delvng into the sixteenth century forgotten lore

A MORNING PRAYER
"STORMY PETREL OF THE NAVY"
 RETIRES OCTOBER Is.

Rear Admiral William Snowden Sims will soon be at liberty to say what he pleases. October 15 he goes on the retired list and the restrictions imposed on him as an active off, fcer in the navy will longer prevent an out-spoken expression of his opinions.
 In spite of discipline, Admiral Sims has on numerous occasions aroused the ire of the navy department and vastly delighted his fel- low countrymen by saying exactly what he thought, serious offense in army and navy circles Had it not been for his distinguished services and his popularity, Admiral Sims might not have escaped the consequences of his independence so easily, but the navy de- rmands, although he was often at loggerheads with his superiors.
 The last time the admiral was put on the carpet he took his punishment like man and then strolled over to the White House, where a cordial greeting from the President quickly dissipated any unpleasant recollections of what had happened few minutes before.
 As soon as the official gag is removed, Ad- miral Sims is expected to give utterance, with characteristic vigor, to some of the thoughts he has been storing up while serving as head of the Naval War college at Newport, R. l., and others that came to him during his long and active career in the navy.

THE MARTIANs

From the Chicago Herald and Examiner
 The belief that Mars is inhabited has been strengthened by further discoveries regarding its atmosphere, reported to the annual con vention of the American Astronomical so- ciety.
 These discoveries are purely technical They indicate only that conditions on Mars are of sort to permit life of the kind we are ac- quainted with. There is breathable air. and a temperature not impossible for human life to sustain; conditions which on the moon for instance do not exist at al
 The suspicion that Mars is inhabited bv living things has inspired many novelists ana story writers, including Du Maurier and H. c. Wells. Actual confirmation of the theory. and particularly communication with the sun posed inhabitants, is not likely, however, till this world has advanced in knowledge and methods infinitely beyond the point it has reached at present. The astronomers think that Mars may have so far advanced. The Martians if they exist, may know far more about us than we know about them. They may be making the most frantic signals to us across the void, and be feeling the most bitter irritation at our stupidity in failing to de- cipher them.
 All that is easy for the imagination to conceive. It is only before universe in which Mars, like the earth, is pinpoint dustv with notes, that our wonder staggers and falls flat.

WHERE LIVE MACHINES. THREsH

Temple Manning, in the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Threshing is Simple" process in Tibet. that strange land which lies north of India. Yaks are employed in doing this hard work. and all that these Tive threshing machines. need in order to inspire them is plenty of music.
 The yak, large, heavy animal, is a cross between the bhon and the OK. It has long hair which fringes down over it's shoulders, sides and tail in great mass. This very use ful animal is valued for its milk and hair and as beast of burden.
 Before the threshing begins the barley is cut and strewn in an enclosure of hard beaten earth. The grain is stacked several inches deen in this incosure, which is usually about half an acre in size. After the barley is in place. about 40 or 50 yaks are driven into the space.
 Now for the Orchestra" the yak must have plenty of "jazz" if he is to do any work. The farmers, their wives and children all gather at the house where the threshing is to be done. They bring with them all of the old drums. rattles, bells, empty kerosene cans, pans and other implements from which noise can be extracted.
 Bang Rattle! Tootv' the laughing Tibetans "tune up Louder and louder grow the sounds of merriment and soon the yaks, frightened and angry, rush through the barley with thelr huge fringed tails high in the air. Back and forth they run, trampling the barley with their huge feet. They run from one side of the inclosure seeking way to es- cape. Not finding an opening in the wall they run to the other side. Back and forth they scamper.
 How simple! The natives have enjoyed a social gathering the yaks have been given concert" and the barley is threshed out m clean grains at the bottom of the inclosure!
 Threshing time is looked forward to with keen anticipation by the natives of Tibet. But perhaps the yaks are not quite sos kecn about 1t.
