PILOT Manner PATR0LING
NORTH IDAHO TIMBER

Spokane, Wash.-Pilct Nick Manner
has undertaken patrol of the forests
of the Coeur d'Alene and Potlatch
Timber associations with radio
equipped airplanes. His contract is
said to be the first of it's kind ever
signed in this country for patro1ling
privately owned forests for protection
against fire.
The wireless equipment will be used
to notify headquarters and fire
fighters when smoke is sighted or
when any fire situation changes 1t
is believed that fire fighting on
large scale can be directed most eff
fectively from the air, when radio
affords means of constant communica-
ton.
The plane Pilot Manner is now US
ing is the one in which he recently
carried two passengers from ST. Paul
to Seattle without even a motor
miss" A second machine, to be used
for emergencies, is being shipped
from the middle west to Bovill, Idaho.
The contract requires the patrol ship
to be in the air four hours a day
from June Is to September Is.
By this constant patrol," Pilot
Manner says, it should be almost i'm
possible for any fire to get a start.

WAR PRISONERS FREED ON
ORDER FROM PRESIDENT

Washington, CA. P. P.)-Immediate re-
lease of more than a score of federal
prisoners convicted of violating war
laws, but with continued detention of
almost as many more, was ordered
today by President Harding before
leaving on his western trip.
The president acted on 158 pard-
ons and communication cases, record
breaking number in the opinion of
department of justice officials. He
granted 80 conditional and IA un-
conditional combinations, one full
pardon, restored civil rights to 27
former prisoners and denied "a ap-
plications for pardons or commuta-
tiOns. He also ordered remission of
fines in two cases.

MOWERS HUMMING
in ALFALFA FIELDS
MUST MAKE WAY FOR SECOND
CROP-YIELD PROMISES
GOOD.

Notwithstanding the fact that there
have been showers almost every day
for the past several weeks and that
the ground is so soft that the horses
sink down over their hoOfs, a numb
er of farmers in the Moscow district
commenced cutting alfalfa Thursday
afternoon, claiming that the time had
come when the first crop must be
cut, or damage to the second crop
would result. The second growth is
springing up rapidly with the first
crop, and even now it is necessary to
set the machines high in order not
to top the second growth alfalfa.
George SEWERS, manager of the.
Moscow Union Warehouse company,
when seen by a Star-Mirror represen-
tative Thursday afternoon, said that
with clear weather for the next week
or ten days, the damage to the alfalfa
would be almost negligible, but that
immediate good weather is most es-
sential if the crop is to be saved
The yield, he said, will be one of the
heaviest in the history of the Palouse
country, and if the present crop can
be cut and cured at once, there is
every reason to expect a heavy sec
ond crop
There is a considerable demand for
men to aid in harvesting the hay
crop, and but few idle men are found
in MOSCOW or any of the Palouse
country towns 1t is probable that
this condition will obtain throughout
the harvest season.
The wheat has not suffered any
damage from the unusually heavy
and continuous June rains, with the
exception of an occasional spot Of
exceptionally heavy wheat having
gone down during the rains of the
past two or three days. Much of this
The crop, as aswhofe, has the appear
ance of being almost one hundred
per cent, and, unless something un-
expected occurs, will be the heaviest
harvested in the Palouse in a con-
siderable number of years.
Price is Uncertain.
The price is uncertain, due to the
fact that the crop generally is heavy,
not only in the United States, but
also in the foreign wheat producing
countries.
Regarding the crop in the United
States, Charles M. Donnelly, of the
Northern Pacific railway, in an in
,erview given out Wednesday, stated:
"A tremendous, record-breaking ag-
,icultural crop will be harvested from
ands from the Mississippi river to
he Pacific coast"
The price quoted for wheat on the
ocal market during the past several
lays has been 80 cents. While there
will be no Palouse wheat on the
market for approximately two months,
he farmer is nevertheless anxious
o know what to expect, but, like
he local dealer, and also the ex-
,orters, can only guess at the prob
tble market price. There is a feel
ne, however, that it is not likely to
,e below the present quotations, and
nay hover about the dollar figure.

SENATOR BORAH TO
ACCOMPANY HARDING ON TOUR

William E. Borah, senior senator
from Idaho, who arrived in Boise,
Sunday, to spend the summer, will

party on their tour through the state,
part of the presidents western trip,
Senator Borah announced Monday
evening. The senator will join the
presidential party at the state line

O. the Mountains" with the president.
In the belief of Senator Borah and
Walter Brown Of Pocatello, the presi-
dents representative, President Hard
ing will not visit the American Falls
dam project while in Idaho. Efforts
will be made, however, Senator Borah
said, to have the chief executive visit
some irrigation project in the state,
and in order to get the presidents
consent to do this, Senator Borah
wired him Monday night Statesman.

LABOR SHORTAGE MAY
RESULT In BETTER PRICES

Increased cost of production on
account of higher farm wages result
ing from shortage of farm labor, now
confronts the agricultural industry,
according to the United States de-
partment of agriculture in it's month
ly agricultural review issued few
days ago. The effect of such a Situa-
ton is normally in the direction of
high prices for farm products or cur
tailment of production, or both, the
review indicates. The department
points out, however, that it is still so
early in the season that definite fore
casts regarding either supply or de-
mand cannot be made. An influx of
Mexicans into the sugar beet regions,
to relieve in part the shortage of farm
labor, is reported.
Agricultural prices show relatively
little change. Slightly higher prices
for some products are shown, but
most of these products have left the
farm. The index of purchasing power
of farm products stood at 70 for April,
as compared with SO in March. The
general industrial situation is receiv-
ing considerable attention by the de-
partment in charting the prospective
demand for agricultural products.
Competitive bidding for labor and
materials, and strikes in the textile
and building industries, suggest that
the industrial boom may be entering
the phase of highest costs, the de-
partment SAYS. The building boom
has already received some prelimin-
ary shocks in the shape of strikes
and suggested curtailment of credit,
it is stated.

SAYS Use OF INSULIN
HELPS IN TUBERCULOSIS

Santa Barbara, Gala. P.)-" The
discovery of insulin for the cure of
diabetes by DR.. f. G.. Banting of To-
ronto, Canada, may be considered a
great aid in the anti-tuberculosis cam
paign," said DR.. W. D. Sansum of
the Potter Metabolic Clinic, Santa
Barbara, California, at the nineteenth
annual meeting of the National Tuber-
culosis association now in session in
this city GA good many cases of
tuberculosis are also diabetlc. Here
tofore the treatment of diabetes meant
a severe diet, often causing under
although the treatment
of tuberculosis calls for The best
possible. Cases affected
with both diseases have in the past
been nearly hopeless"
The use of insulin, DR.. Sansum
pointed out, now frees such patients
from all diabetic symptoms, and if
is present this may be
treated with the best general diet
that the market affords. One patient
under the care of DR.. Sansum gained
35 pounds, and now weighs Is pounds
more than he ever has weighed. In
every one of his tuberculosis diabetic
cases, laboratory findings have shown
improvement. 1t now
said DR.. Sansum, that
such patients have the same chance
of recovery as have similar patients
without diabetes"

CHIEF JUSTICE TAFT AP-
PEALS FOR LAW RESPECT

New Haven, Conn.-Pleading for a
return to "Anglo-Saxon respect for
law" Chief Justice William H. Taft
told his fellow alumni at the Yale
university alumni luncheon today
that it was the special duty of those
charged with leadership and influence
to set aside their personal likes and
dislikes and to support the law. He
referred particularly to prohibition,
which, he said, had become import
ant because it served as a test of the
principle of observance of all law
Mr. Taft declared that prohibition
has been legally adopted by large
majority and that there was not the
slightest indication that the 18th
amendment would be repealed.

Big ACREAGE TO
PRODUCE seed
SEEDED UNDER CONTRACT FOR
WASHBURN & WILSON - COM
PANY OPENING NEW TERRITORY

Between six and seven thousand
acres of the Inland Empires most
productive soil has been put in crop
for the Washburn e Wilson Seed
company of this city this spring, ac-
cording to Herman N. Wilson, man
ager of the company. The crops are
grown under contract and are grown
on land as far north as Fairfield,
Washington, and as far south as Oro-
fino. The acreage is considerably
larger tim the company has contracted
for any previous year.
The Washburn & Wilson Seed COM
pny is an example of the possibility
of developing an industry which is
constructive and which supplies
legitimate need
While the growth has been steady
since the organization of the COM
pany, it has been greater the past
year, and still greater developments
are in sight for the future, the SUI
perior quality of the seeds grown in
northern Idaho and eastern Washing
ton becoming known over greater
area. Just now the company is open
ing up virgin territory in Montana,
where the prospects for good busi-
ness are excellent.
Three statesmen are on the road now
coming fall and winter. Delivery will
start Immediately after harvest. A.
D. Coles is in charge of the eastern
Washington and the Oregon territory;
F. L. Kinnard the Palouse country
and northern Washington, while Ken
meth Anderton is opening up the Mon
tana territory.
The past spring the company de-
livered 81 cars of seed potatoes to
farmers in the Yakima valley, under
contract, and it is expected that con-
tracts for next year will be fully as
big. The potato from this altitude is
the best available for seed in the
irrigated districts. Alfalfa seed was
handled in large quantities the past
season, considerable being sold to
farmers in Latah county, indicating
large increase in the alfalfa acre
age.
The crops which are being grown
under contract for the company have
been put in this spring under the most
favorable conditions, and excellent re-
turns are expected this fall.

PRoLoNeING THE TOURIST SEA.
 SON IN ALASKA

This year the transcontinental -ail' roads are arranging to sell round trip excursion tickets to the Pacific coast from May 1, instead of as previously from May 15. This will have the eff feet of starting the tourist business to Alaska earlier than. in previous years. The steamship companies have ar ranged to schedule their departing steamers to the north earlie. than us ual, as they realize that often May Is one of the most delightful months of the year for tourists to explore the north. The fact was apparent last year when May and June were possibly the warmest and brightest months of the only prove attractive to the eastern tourist but should appeal with equal force to the residents of the Pacific coast. Better accommodations are then available, as traffic is not so congeSt- ed as duringf July and August when traffic to the northern cline is at it's height. As the wonders of Alaska are better known there will be increased thousands to avail themselves of the opportunity to view the marvellous scenic beauties during a season that will extend from May to the end of September. And the pleasures and the sports of winter are so greatly en- loved in the interior of Alaska, will also be expected to appeal to many who want diversion from the usual re- sorts of the south where perpetual sunshine and warmth pals. In time Ai aska will undoubtedly prove one or the most attractive of all-yea--round resorts.

(Alaska CapitaD
 The Alaska Road Commission will only have available from the Federal government this year the usual appro priation of s465, 1000, which will not permit of much new road construction If is unfortunate that the plan of the Commission to erect feeders to the new railroad and to new camps can not be carried out because of the lack of available funds It will require near ly all of the appropriation to maintain the present system of roads and trails Fortunately, however, particularly for the First and Third divisions, the For estry department will have funds ava1l able to do much of the work necessary in these sections. Then again the Ter ritorial fund may be sufficient, Ii rev enues are available, to help out the extreme necessities of all the four div isions. All concede the great necessary for additional roads and trails in Al aska and it is expected that soon the government will appreciate this need if the new railroad is to be made paying proposition and if Alaska IS to develop as it should and as it's resour- ces warrant.
