HILLS NOT RARREN WASTE

To the average person who sets
around home on Sunday and every
other day in the week, and doesn't
try to find out what is being done in
this vicinity, it would certainly be
surprisingly to know the number OF
cattle that is ranging on the hills
just outside of the irrigated lands il
the Payette Valley at this time OF
the year. The Editor and family,
accompanied by ]. H. Connyers and
wife, on last Sunday, took a trip OUT
over the Payette Heights, crossed the
summit into Emory Gulch, and fol-
lowed the old Moss road winding
through the hills to Sand Hollow and
up through Sand Hollow for several
miles, and to our surprise we found
this territory, not barren waste, but
thousands of cattle feeding on the
hill-sides and seemingly doing wen.
Mr.. II. Hansen, three miles up from
the mouth of Sand Hollaw has a bano
OF several hundred, ranging on his
500 acre ranch and are watered from
a well, a gas engine is used in lift
ing the water 200 feet. other ranches
further up the hollow, have naturat
springs While this has been an IN
| usually dry season so far, the hills
are green and viii furnish ample
feed for the next two months when
most of the cattle will be taken TO
the range higher up.

AMERICAN LEGION NOTES

All ex-service men who do not be
long to the American Legion nigh
just as well join now as a drive hai
been started to get new members anC
We are going after all of eligibles.
The pedestal on which the Dough
boy statue will rest is now in place
and it is sure some rock.
At the meeting held Monday eve
ming more plans were discussed foI
the program to be held Memorial
Day, several committees being ap-
pointed to take care of differenl
things One to arrange for cars to
carry those who wish to go to the
cemetery for the program.
Also committee to see that
every FraternaI Organization and
every other organization is invited to
march in the parade.
Some remarks were made by mem.
bers stating that last year and years
previous civilians failed to remove
their hats when the flag went by in
the parade. OF course this was NOT
done Intentionally but if everyone
makes a special effort not to forget
to do so this year it will make a much
better impression, will look better,
and each man will feel better be-
cause he did so. Millions of Amerh
cans thought enough of the Stars
and Stripes to give up their lives
for it surely no one is 80 tired he can
not remove his hat to show his re-
spect for it.
The American Legion has made |
to have the film, "a
Man Without Country, shown al

it is put on by some American Legion
Post. 1t is based on the book by

seeing.
The next meeting, the first Mon.
lay in May will be different from
any SO far held, the Adiutant may
ct you know but so far as l am con-
,erned you will have to be there to

 Although Gus Welch had hard season at Washington State in 1922 there is DO talk of replacing him as coach. He was handicapped by the fact that most of his men were green and also by a hard schedule which made his eleven practically a travelling team.
 Dick Rutherford has developed a great line at the Oregon Agricultural College and probably will be retained If he can keep his team together and develop Q quarterback, the Aggies will be heard from next year. accord ing to northern observers.
 Idaho to Be Feared
 Idaho is the team that most of the conference coaches will fear in 1923. Last year Bob Mathews, dur ing his first year as Vandal coach talned out an eleven which paie , reputation for it's fighting ability, al. though most of his men were playing out schedule which called for sey- en out of eight games away from home. Mathews is well liked at Idaho and will be retained.
 Elmer c. Henderson last year turned out his first Coast Confer ence team and it won three organiza- ton games, winning for it the right to represent the West in the Pasa- dsna East-West clash with Penn State New Years Day. Henderson has turned out good teams for the rast several years.

WASHINGTON J
 10 PLAY MANY
 BIG GAMES, 1923
Ten Games in Ten Weeks Is Hard Schedule Before Foot
 ball Men Next Fall.

SEATTLE, Jan. 12.-Ten games in 10 weeks are to be played by the University of Washington football team in filling what sport observers say is one of the hardest schedules facing any Pacific Coast Conference university for 1923.
 Eight of the games will be against Pacific Coast or Northwest Confer. ence teams. Washington meeting California, Southern California, Ore gon, Washington iStase, Whitman, Willamette, Montana and the Oregon Aggies. The non-conference games will be with a navy team and the College of Puget Sound.
 Whitman is returning to the Wash ington schedule after being off this year. For years Whitman has opened the conference season at Sc attle, but in the 1922 schedule Idaho was substituted. Idaho is not on the Washington schedule and critics are saying Washington in passing up the Nandals feared an early-sea son defeat. Last season Idaho held the Huskies tosa a two-point victory.
 For the first time in years the Washington team will appear in Ia coma, playing the College of Puget Sound October 27 Tacoma alumni wanted the game Southern Cali fornia will be a stranger on the Husky program next season. This clash is expected to be one of the biggest games of the year
 The Washington schedule follows:
 Sept. 29-Navy team here.
 Oct. 6-Willamette here.
 Oct. Whitman here.
 Oct. 20-Southcrn California here.
 Oct. 27-Puget Sound at Tacoma.
 Nov. 9-Oregon Aggies at Corvallis.
 Nov. 1e-Montana here.
 Nov. 17-California at Berkeley.
 Nov. 24 Washington State here.
 Dec. 1--Oregon here.

FOOTBALL HEADS ARE TO REMAIN
 COMING SEASON
Practically All Coaches to Remain with Universities
 During Year 1923.

SAN FRANCISCO, @an. 12.-All the football coaches of 1922 Pacific Coast Conference teams will be re- tained during the 1923 season. ae- cording to present indications. Often schools with losing teams change coaches during the winter but it Is probable that the rule will rot be followed.
 For Stanford University 1923 will be the first year in five that new coach has not taken charge at the opening of the season. Andy Kerr, who handled the 1922 team, will re- main as tho representative of Glenn Warner, who comes to take over the reins in 1924 Kerr won the eonfi- dence of Cardinal students by his work this season, when he laid the foundation of what is expected to be winning system for Stanford.
 Andy Smith, of course, will remain at California. When Smith went to the big state university as coach in 1916 his men had nothing but rugby in their systems. Three lean years followed but during those years Smith taught his men how to play a game of football which has won for them the coast title for three years. California hopes to repeat next sea son.
 Huskies Make Record
 WGshingtons team last year made the best record of any Husky eleven since 1916, the last year Gilmour Dobie coached in the North, so, nat urally, Enoch Bagshaw will be kept as coach. Bagshaw formerly was a winning high school coach at Ever ett and last year took over football at Washington. His first year was touch ono but this year his team lost only 10 California.
 Shy" Huntington, who succeeded his teacher, Hugo Bozdek, as coach at Oregon in 1918, has been given his contract for 1923. When Hunt ington produced the great Oregon eleven that held Harvard to a 76 score in 1919. critics said that he inherited his men from Bezdek. But this year, without Bezdek pupil on the squad, Huntington turned out a

SWEDEN IS FIRING
 OF INVESTIGATIONS

STOCKHOLM, Jan. 12-A whole sale slaughter of costly public com mittees. to begin immediately, is the first important outcome of the cam paign of cleaning up and saving which has been started by Sweden Minister of Finance, F. w. Thorsson This drastic step, which will save the country millions of crowns an. nually. is finding favor with the press and public of Sweden.
 Mir. Thorsson. in his recommends. tions, makes no comment on the governmental practice of shifting re sponsibility to committees. He mere ly points out that 2S5 committees, consisting of more than 1000 per. sons, have been conducting various and sundry investigations, and that in 1921 their expenditures exceeded the government appropriations by more than 100 per cent. He then recommends slashing of the list, and these recommendations have been accepted by the government.
 The number of committees elimin- ated has not yet been announced, but 1t will probably be 70 per cent of the total. The annual saving to the government is estimated at about sl,O00,000. AS a measure of economy, the remaining committees will here after submit their reports in type written form instead of printed form. The Minister of Finance recommends, IS a further safeguarding of public funds, that committees ehreafter be granted maximum appropriations in stead of estimates which may be ex- ceeded.
