MUST WORK IN WET
WEATHER AGAINST WEEVIL
Must Show As Much Energy AS
He Does, Says Depart
ment

Under the heading, boil Wee
wills Work in Wet Weather-So
Must the Cotton Planter" the De-
partment of Agriculture sends out
the following additional instruc-
tions on how to win the battle with
the pest:
If you expect to whip the boil
Weevil in fair fight, you have got
to show as much energy as he
does which means that though the
operation may be both difficult and
unpleasant, poisoning must be
done even when the plants are wet
and the ground. muddy, so says the
United States Department of Agri-
culture with regard to poisoning
the weevil with calcium arsenate.
The Department has found that
during the critical stage, the poi
soning should be done at intervals
of about four days. Two or three
applications, made in good weather
may have got the weevils under
control. Then there comes a rainy
spell and the farmer lets the time
for poisoning pass while he waits
for fair weather. But that is exact
ly the time when the weevil is
busiest. The numbers are likely to
increase so rapidly that the con-
troll already gained is lost. In that
event, the weevil inflicts about as
much damage as if no poisoning
had been done and the farmer loses
in addition, what he has spent in
poisoning operations. The only
way to prevent that sort of result
is to let wet weather interfere as
little as possible with poisoning
operations. Stick to the schedule,
the department says, regardless of
weather conditions.
The Department realizes, of
course, that poisoning cannot be
done in pouring rain but the farm
er the specialists urge, should take
advantage of the earliest oppor-
tunity 10 get back into the field af-
ter the rain, that he should make
every effort to get the cotton
again busted regularly, even
though fair weather does not seem
certain. He can afford they say to
put on poison even in unsettled
weather. 1t may be washed off
again shortly but, on the other
hand, the weather, even when it
looks most threatening, may stay
fair long enough to allow weevil
control to operate. Every farmer,
it is pointed out, must expect to
lose some poison by rain but the
operation is sufficiently profitable
to justify it.

At present, hardly more than
enough coal is being mined in Utah
to keep abreast of the noraml sum

GR D " ERS ARE
PREPARING F D R
MAIN PAINTINGS
Preparations for Fall
Shipment of Lettuce
Being Made; Election
of Officers

Preparations for growing the main
paintings of lettuce for fall shipments
are being made with satisfactory pro-
gress according to officials of the Ida
no Producers Union. This organiza-
ton of growers is holding series of
important meetings this week at
which interest in the seasons program,
runs high. Seventeen meetings in all
will be held in this part Of the State at
which growers not only receive their
seed but elect their local officers and
listen to instructive talks on methods
of growing the crop.
Some of the growers have been
much pleased that the seed is not cost
ing them so much as a current rumor
has led them to believe On account OF
foresight exercised in buying the seed
before the market value had risen tc
it's present level, the Union is able to
supply its membership with seed at a
total cost of $2.75 per pound. A re-
port which gained circulation in Ger.
tain quarters led growers to thinl
the price was $500 per pound. Thi.
report was doubtless based or
the fact that growers in certain sec
tons who are not protected by an or
ganization like the Union are obliged
to pay such prices for their seed as ;
great shortage has developed and goo'
seed is very valuable. The idaho Pro
ducers' Union is provided with ampl
supply to meet the requirements of it
members and is glad to be able Il
save them something on the purchas
price.

HOLD SESSION
IN 7 WIN FALLS
Delegate Conference for
Purpose Discussing Or
ganization of a State
wide Body, July IL.

Reports from sportsmen of various
sections Of the state show keen inter-
est in the delegate conference to be
held at Twin Falls July IL. At that
time representative sportsmen and citi-
gems will be present from each coun-
ty, the recent conference held in Poca-
tello having decided that the oppor-
tionmcnt consist in furtherance of the
movement to perfect statewide or
ganization on the county unit plan.
At the meeting of sportsmen of va
rious counties held in Pocatello on
May Is temporary organization was
perfected, with Chas. G. Sumner as
temporary chairman and S. E. Ander-
SON, temporary secretary. Both are
the regular officers of the Bannock
Sportsmen's association, the largest ir
the state, though the session held in
Pocatello was not called at the insti.
cation of the Bannocksbody, it acting
as the host. Active sportsmen were
present at that time, and a committe,
was appointed to make recommends
tons as to the plan of procedure il
perfecting a statewide body, after tn,
matter had been thoroughly discusse,
from all angles.
During the session at Twin Falls i
will be the purpose to further discus
the project and to perfect constitu
ton and bylaws and other regulation
submitted by the committee if tn
state body is completed.
In case there are several clubs o
associations in each county it is fig
ured that they will unite upon but on
delegate or on several with fractions
vote if need be.
A good attendance is anticipated, a
many interests aside from these of III
sportsnfen have signihed intention c
taking in the session. 1t is a move
ment of import to the sportsmen c
the state, and there is probability thu
the work of the preliminary meetin
will resolve into thorough statewid
body, by affiliation, the units remainin
intact. Sportsmen's associations an
clubs should send the name of the
delegate to Secretary Anderson, Pocs
tello, as soon as possible.

First shipments of lettuce from Lar

August and will continue probably
for six weeks to two months.
The Colorado acreage this season is
very large, but we do not anticipate
over-production of the best quality
product. There will probably be a
good deal of poor lettuce that will not
be shipped,

Idaho Seed to be
Sold Under Brand

The Board of Directors of the Ida
no Seed Growers Association and
the Western Seed Growers Marketing
Co. are now working out brands or
trademarks for the sale of our higher
grade clover and alfalfa seed, This
move will not only work for the bene-
fit of the individual growers. but it is
expected to better advertise Idaho
grown seed and create demand for
our seed on the eastern markets.
In the past there has been some dis
elimination against seed from irrigat.
ed sections, this being especially ,ru,
with alfalfa. Dry land seed has beer
preferred. Purchasers in the middl,
west and east have not fully appre
GATED the. varying degrees of tenn
perature under which our crops ar,
grown. The northern grown, dry
land seed has been thought to b,
much more hardy. Recent expert
ments carried on at different stat
stations have proven that this conten
ton is not entirely founded.
It has been recognized for som
time that as regards quality, particula
color and viability, western grow
seed excels that produced in other sec
tons of the United States. Wester
growers in the past have not been re
ceiving the benefit of this. The tru
merits of our seed have not been ad
vertised sufficiently to acquaint grow
ers of the middle west and east c
its superiority,
1t will be remembered that la.
years exhibitions of Idaho seed ;
the International Hay and Graf
Show outciassed that exhibited fror
every other section of the Unite
States. Our red clover, alsike Glove
alfalfa and timothy stood out aboy
that of any other section. This beir
the first real competitive demonstr;
ton brought to the attention OF cas-
ern growers.

STEWART STANDS
BOISE SKATERS
ON THEIR HEADS
Local Twirler Strikes out
Twelve Men and Al
lows but Four Bingles;
Best Game of the Year.

In one of the fastest games of the
season, Caldwell took the Boise Noun
taineers to fast cleaning in the Fourth
of July game here Tuesday.
Stewart, reliable left-hander for the
local club, pitched wonderful game.
For five consective innings Boise bat
tiers walked to the plate and back
again to the bench. Only once did
the visitors threaten to score, and that
was in the initial inning, when with
two on and one down Stewart struck
out the next two batters.
Caldwell hit the Boise twirler often
but could not bunch their hits. Even
with two men on in three innings,
when hit meant run, the Caldwell
swatters could not connect. Even
Benny, the best he could do was to
strike out once and pop up couple
of little inheld shoots.
With two down in the last half of
the fifth and two men on bases,
Dutch" Sherman lifted one to the
right field fence, scoring both runners
Framback, Ansel, Webb, Benedict
and Cornell, all contributing to the
FIVE runs garnered in this inning be-
fore the last out was made when
Stewart struck out.
In the sixth one more run was made
on an infeld error, Framback scoring
After this Caldwell threatened agar
a couple of times but Kuss, the Boise
twirler, became settled.
Bosses two runs came in the first o.
the sixth, when with one man down
and one on base, an inheld error, thu
only one of the game made by thu
Caldwell club, spoiled a possible
double play, and Nadeau, batting fol
Johnson, hit a two-base hit into lief
field, scoring both runners. After thi
it was case of one, two, three.
Kuss, pitcher for the Moose team
at Boise, pitched very creditabl
game but costly errors and punched
hits lost him the contest.
With Benedict at first, Cornell OF
short, Webb third, and Sherman a
catcher, the Caldwell club has stronl
lineup. Stewart pitched remarkabl
game, and after the first and fifth in
nings was never in danger of agai
being scored upon. He struck out l
Boise swatters against his opponent
eight. The grandstand and bleache
stand was crowded to capacity, as we
as the automobile parking.
