Can Get High Grade
Seed from Bureau.

Word has just been received from
B. F. Sheehan, secretary of Western
Seed Growers Marketing company, the
concern that handles the pooled clover
and alfalfa seed, that the company has
about $4,000 pounds of dodder free Al
clover seed for distribution to members
of the pool. The exact plan for dis
tributing this seed has not yet been
decided upon, although it is probable
that it will be distributed quite gen.
orally through the different institu-
tons that handled the pool during the
past season. Those desiring to secure
such seed, however, should PLACE their
orders with the Canyon County Farm
Bureau at once and they will be mott
fed later on as to where this seed can
be procured. Growers desiring this
seed should communicate with the
farm bureau office in person, or mail
or telephone, giving the amount of
seed wanted and probably date on
which they will want it. This should
be attended to Immediately.

nison has been the most consistent
winner of the Idaho team this year
and is whirlwind of action while on
the mat. Cornell came back strong
IN his match against Baker, w. S. c.,
losing two hairline decisions. In the
first bout his opponent had the best
OF the game by a reasonable margin
but the second bout was much closer.
Cornell at one time having the upper
hand but losing his advantage in the
last minute of the bout. Both the
men in this bout showed wonderful
ability in breaking holds which SEEM
ed to be sure falls, Cornell especially
spectacular wheh extricating himself
from bad positions. The men weighed
in for the match, Baker 100 pounds,
Cornell $50.
Jim Jackson, College of Idaho cap
tain, probably received the rawest
treatment on the menu of the barber
referee. Horning won the decision in
the first bout in the light heavyweight
class. In the second bout Jackson
started out strong after revenge and
within the first two minutes of the bout
he had Mornings shoulders pinned to
the mat in cradle lock about one
foot from the edge Of the mat. Idaho's
guardian angel came to the rescue
once more, that brave bold tonsorial
artist. The referee ordered Jackson
to break his hold and to go to the
center of the mat on the bottom.
Jackson protested but did as ordered.
Horning again secured the upper hand
towards the end Of the bout and with
less than ten seconds to go, started
the Caldwell mans shoulders in the
: general direction of the mat and when
with three seconds left to the bout
and with about thrA inches for the
college captains shoulder to touch the
mat, the fall was called. Jackson be-
cause of the memory of his brother,
Tom, was the favorite to win in this
bout, except with the referee.
The men and women of southern
Idaho made the trip as trip especially
| pleasant for the local team, showing
real western hospitality to the visiting
team.

Saturday night in the Lake Lowell

Elaborate preparations had been
made to stage the play with a real
rural atmosphere, and stage togeth-

a good cast of characters lent a real

evening thru the efforts of H. G. Nor

ming and wired the house with foot
lights for the stage, borders and dress
ing rooms-the effect lending much
color and light to the play.
Every character in the play was wei
taken and it is hard to say which
characters were the most popular with
the audience which filled every inch

Specialist To Aid
Lettuce Producers.

Prospective lettuce growers who af-
hiliate with the Idaho Producers
Union are to have the advantage of
the assistance of George F. Prince, of
Los Angeles county, Calf, to assist
them in their lettuce production work
for the coming season. Mr. Prince is
pioneer, not only in lettuce produce
ton but also in the production of
celery, >cauliflower, asparagus and
many other vegetables and comes to
Idaho with over 20 years experience
in growing these crops in California.
He is not only informed in all ques-
+tions relating to the production of the
crop, but also is thoroughly familiar
with all details concerning harvesting,
packing and shipping the various vege-
table products. Idaho growers are I'M
usually fortunate in being able to Sc
cure the services of man of this type.
Because of the large number of grow
ers who are signing up in the Idaho
Producers Union, Mr.. Prince will of
necessity devote his entire attention
to members of the Union only.
Those desiring his services should,
therefore, provide they desire to do so,
sign the Union contracts at the earliest
possible date, for meetings of the grow
ers will be scheduled in every COM
munity where the sign-up work is
completed in order that Mr.. Prince
may work as far as possible with
groups rather than individuals. These
meetings will, of course, be open to
any who desire to attend, no matter
whether they sign the contracts or
not.
Printed material covering the differ.
ent phases of lettuce production and
harvesting will, however, be mailed
only to those who have signed con.
tracts. This printed material is al
ready in course of preparation and i,
it hoped will be available for distribu'
ton in the very near future.

MOTORISTS ARE
SLOW THIS YEAR
Less Than Half Thus
|, Far Buy 1922
Licenses.

Less than 1900 of Canyon countys
4500 automobiles can sport a 1922 mo-
tor license, according to information
obtained at the county assessors Off
ce Monday While applications and
checks are pouring in at prodigious
rate, it was predicted that less than
so per cent of the total would be eli
gible to traverse county highways
when the dead line for 1922 licenses is
passed Wednesday.
Instructions from Robert o. Jones,
commissioner of law enforcement, are
to the effect that the motor regula-
tons will be strictly enforced after
March |, that date having been set
as the last day when cars can be leg
ally operated with 1921 license plates.
General roundups of delinquents who
brave the dangers of arrest are expect
ed to follow shortly on the heels of the
deadline. Systematic raids may not
be undertaken this week, but it is fore
casted that next week will witness
wholesale arrests
Many cars are not now in opera
ton, it was explained at the county
capital Monday. Owners of these ma.
chimes are safe until they get the spring
motor bug when they will have to in.
vest in new license for 1922. If the
present good weather continues. II is
predicted that the rush on the count,
assessors office for license applica
tons will continue for the next thre,
weeks
In general, motor license applica
tions are much slower coming in thar
they were last year at this time. due
perhaps, to the almost total absenc,
of motor weather thus far this year.

Students Menorize
Sermon ON Mount.

Mrs, Paul Murphy brought to the
attention of A. A. Hyde. owner and
manager OF the we'll known menthol-
alum company, the needs of the Col
lege of Idaho. He has promised to
give $500 to the college for every STU
dent enrolled, if every student will
commit to memory the sermon on the
mount, as found in the fifth. sixth
and seventh chapters of the Gospel OF
ST.. Matthew.
Mr.. Hyde favors Christian training
He believes that the principles set
forth in the sermon on the mount are
the foundation and all important prin.
ciples of Christian living.
College spirit is strong, so the stu
dents are busily engaged in memoriz'
ing their Bible verses.

Weiser and Nanpa
To Play at Boise,
Decide District Cham
pionship Arrangement
Unsatisfactory.

Nampa and Weiser high schools
will play this week, probably on the
neutral Boise floor, ito determine which
basket ball team will represent this
district at the southern Idaho tourna-
ment to be held at Pocatello Friday
and Saturday. By ruling from Mr..
Mitchell of Twin Falls, president of
the Idaho Interscholastic Athletic as
ISOLATION, only one team can represent
this section at Pocatello. Two teams
will be chosen from Pocatello to rep
resent southern Idaho at the state
tournament March l0-ll at Moscow.
The Caldwell quintet. having but
lately struck its stride, will conclude
the season this week. The first game
will be played at Ontario Tuesday eve-
ming at Ontario, and a week end con-
test with Payette will be arranged for
Friday or Saturday night, depending
on the outcome of the Nampa-Weise
game.
According to Coach Graves of the
Payette team, Weiser has no legiti-
mate claim to the championship of that
section. Both Payette and Weiser
have clean records for the season ex-
cept for one game that Payette lost by
narrow margin to Weiser at Weiser
No return game has been played and
Coach Graves is confident that his
team can win from Weiser at home.
General dissatisfaction is being ex-
pressed with the means employed this
year in determining the sectional
championship in southwestern Idaho
