COMMISSIONERS
GET READY To
CALL ELECTION
Petitions Are Circulated
Asking for Opportun-
ity to Wipe Out War
rant Indebtedness.

Canyon county commissioners are
preparing to call a special bond cleo
ton to retire deficiency warrants.
Last Friday, petitions drawn up at
the direction of the board of county
commissioners, were left at many plac-
es in the county for signatures of
citizens who favor refunding the war
rant indebtedness with bond issue.
That the action of the commissioners
will meet with public approval was
evidenced early in the day when al
ready many citizens had signed the
petitions.
The petition points out that $780,
900 bond issue will be necessary to re-
tire the outstanding warrants and put
the county on cash basis. That
material saving will be made by the
sale of the bonds due to the lower in
terest rate is one of the chief argu-
ments advanced in favor OF the plan.
Recommendation made by the last
state meeting of the county commits
sioners of Idaho that the legislature
pass measure permitting county
commissioners TO retire warrant OBJ
legations with bond issue without re-
sorting to an election for approval.
met small favor with the legislature
and the bill, drawn at the commission
ers' direction, was defeated.
When the subject for refunding the
Canyon county warrant Indebtedness
with bond issue was first broached.
the plan attracted many bond buyers
and inquiries. 1t is believed that no
difficulty will be experienced in selling
the bonds. If the election carries, at
good price. Canyon county at present
has less than 100000 OF outstanding
bonded indebtedness. With a valua-
ton of approximately S25,00O0 900, the
credit OF the county is excellent and
bonds issued by the county would al
ford an excellent investment from this
standpoint.

Adequate Supply Is Now
On Hand For Spring
Planting

The Idaho Producers Union has on
hand a fresh supply of high grade
American grown Golden Self Blanch-
ing celery seed This seed will be de-
livered to growers at cost, which is
40 cents per ounce F.O.F. Caldwell.
From one to three ounces OF seed will
produce enough plants for one acre
under ordinary conditions. Caution
should be used in purchasing imported
seed of the above variety this year,
as last years product was not satisfac-
tory.
The Union has not yet purchased
its supply of cauliflower seed but will
do so soon and have on hand an ade-
quate supply of the best Danish inn
ported seed. Three ounces OF this seed
will produce enough plants for one
acre when planted in beds and trans
planted in the fields later.
A variety of onion seed known as
Buckskin Brown is being recommend
ed by the Union this year. This seed
is now available and the cost will be
approximately $500 per pound. About
three pounds of seed are required te
an acre under normal conditions. The
Buckskin Brown seed is produced
from sets imported from Australia
each year. This is the only way that
the quality can be kept up. When

duct is a very firm onion, of good eat
ing qualities and one which can be

STRIKE IS NOT
WIPED OUT YET
Railroads and Shopmen
Haven't Settled All
Difficulties

Washington, March 12.-Incidcnt to
the theory that the force of public
opinion" will straighten out most con-
troversies it is interesting to find out
at this time through the United States
department Of labor that not much
more than one-half of the railroads
have settled their differences with their
shop men who went on strike last
fall. Among these roads are to be
found the Nashville and the Pcnnsyl-
vania systems.
The shop men as well as the rail-
road executives dchcd the Railroad Ia
Dor board last year. And despite the
fact that public opinion backed the
tribunal all the way through. the hula
balloo in railroad affairs went chasing
merrily on.
Public opinion undoubtedly is good
when it gets to going good and. strong.
but in the instances given above II
went to sleep on the job before its
tasks were finished. A good many
people think that tribunals that are
either national or international, must
have teeth and be able to command
the help of some sort OF sheriff,
who will have pistols in his belt and
posse back of him-just like the
Wild West movie stuff
President Harding in letter to ,.
T.. Connor, of the federated shop
crafts of the Central Railroad OF New
Jersey, has expressed the opinion that
the railway executives who refused TO
settle the shop strike are responsible

Another Car of
Eggs to New York
Association Ships Fifth
Big Car to Eastern
Market

The Pacific Cooperative Poultry
Producers shipped another car OF eggs
to New York this week. making the
fifth car shipped to New York since
January Is, 1923. Members OF the as
sociation and non-members alike will
profit because OF these heavy ship
ments of eggs out OF the territory
Were il not for the fact that tie as
sociation is prepared to ship out eggs,
in quantities, it is quite probable that
the Boise Valley markets would be
glutted with eggs at the present time,
hence much lower prices than at pres
ent would prevail.
The poultry producers throughout
Idaho and Eastern Oregon are also
of the association. This is due 10 the
fact that the surplus of eggs now be-
ing shipped to New York out OF the
Boise Valley would ordinarily be sent
by local express into the surrounding
towns OF Idaho and Oregon. Five
carloads OF eggs expressed out locally
in this way since January IS. 1923.
would have resulted in Cutting every
egg market in the intermountain dis
trict.
Idaho poultry men are indeed for
tunate to have in their midst an or
ganization such as the Pacific Coop
erative Poultry Producers. The Ida
no branch of the Poultry Producers
is in charge of Mr.. George s. Du-
rant.

Among the high lights on the pro-
gram OF the flying squadron which
will visit Caldwell this week are two
addresses by Hon. Frank Regan, ac-
cording TO advance circulars received
here. Mr.. Regan is to speak at the
Methodist church, where all the meet
ings are to be held, Wednesday after
noon at o'clock and again in the ev-
ening. He is a cartoonist and chalk
talker. OF him the circulars say:
Il cannot emphasize too strongly
the importance of the two addresses
to be given by Mr.. Regan. They are
wonderfully entertaining and instruc-
tive and those who fail to embrace the
opportunity offered OF hearing him will
miss a rare treat"
"Mr. Regan is known from the At
lantic to the Pacific and the Great
Lakes to the Gulf He is bubbling
over with energy and enthusiasm and
will present truths that should be a
part of the intellectual equipment OF
every citizen of this country. am
sure you will be glad to assist us in
making public the fact OF his coming
and the importance of the messages
he will deliver"
"In thus placing special stress on
the addresses OF Mr. Regan we do not
wish in any sense to detract from the
addresses TO be given by the other
speakers. Each has a message OF spe--
cial importance; each is a master in
his particular field

ian tablets containing records of bust
ness transactions between 2400 and
2lOO years before the time of Christ
has been given to the university mu-
scum by Major and Mrs. w. w
Woods. old friends OF the institution.
Major Woods is not now living but
his last wish was that the tablets be
presented to the university. Mrs.
Woods resides at Wallace. The tab
lets were presented to President A. II.
Upham by Judge J. II. Forney, OF
Moscow, first president of the univer-
sity on behalf of the major and his
wife.
The tablets were discovered in the
ruins OF Babylonia by Edgar J. Banks,
a noted authority on such clay and
brick records, and were sent back to
America to Major Woods, his life
long friend.
The records have been deciphered
by Mr.. Banks and their authenticity
proved The tablets are perfect and
all of them are legible. The oldest
traces its origin to about 4300 years
ago while the most recent is 4l00 years
old. Nearly all are records of busi-
ness transactions.
None of the tablets is more than a
few inches in size. They were writ
ten on while the clay was damp, later
being dried or baked. The dates en-
the back have enabled investigators
to trace them back to between 24Oo
and 2l00 years before Christ.
The tablets constitute one OF the
most valued gifts ever presented to
the institution and will be given a
prominent place in the museum. which
contains many other relics of great
historical importance.
After the presentation II. L. Axtell,
professor of Greek and Latin, gave
brief talk in which he explained the
significance OF the tablets and the re-
laiion OF their letters and signs to the
modern system of writing.
