BINGHAM COUNTY NEW

will continue to work out from the
Boise office as heretofore.
Every effort is being made to select
thoroughly capable and experienced
man to succeed F. X. Cammack as
field dairyman in the extension divf-
sion. Several excellent men are I'M
der consideration and early announce
ment of a selection may be expected.
Plans are already being formulated
for a statewide conference of all ex-
tension and other agricultural work
ers connected with the university to
meet on the campus late in October
to formulate plans for more effective
service to the farmers in all parts OF
the state and to study and organize
Idaho's needs in the form of five
year program of investigation and ex-
tension teaching.
This announcement was given out
after a conference of members of the
university executive committee OF the
state board of education held at the
university. President A. H. Upham In
commenting upon it said:
"The retirement of Mr.. Fluharty
has been anticipated for several
weeks and will in no way change the
tail it's activities except as it permits
of greater unity and cooperation IN
administering our entire agricultural
program. The extension service has
been considerably criticized in recent
years, particularly during legislative
sessions, and state funds for this pur-
pose were greatly reduced for this
biennium. Our constant aim m
meeting this situation is to reduce
overhead costs wherever possible ana
to render the largest service within
our means to the farmers in all parts
of the state.
"Our superior corps of extension
specialists continue to give general
satisfaction. Home demonstration
and club work are now operated eff
fectively on district instead OF
basis. The county agents,
while reduced in numbers, are as cap
able a body of men as have ever Ia
bored in Idaho. A worthy successor
to Mr.. Cammack will soon be en-
ployed. Professor Graves, who is be-
ing added to our campus staff in ru-
raj economics, will give his summers
to the study of production costs and
problems throughout Ida
no. Both experimental and demon
stration work in combating insect
pests will be pushed as rapidly as
funds permit.
"Intimations have been made that
some recent changes in the extension
staff indicate a change Of policy on
the part of the university toward its
work with the farmers
through the extension division. These
are absolutely unfounded in fact"

CLAIMS SILVER SITUATION
WAS MISREPRESENTED
Head of Miners Organization Asserts
Government and Not the Producer
PrOfited Largely From Advance.

Not only because all section Of
Idaho are concerned with the produc-
ton of silver, one of the states big
payroll and matchmaking indus
tries, but because of the manifest in
Justice contained in the statement,
there is widespread resentment ex-
pressed respecting the representation
of acting Secretary Of the Treasury
Gilbert. that the silver producers had
been paid $62,OO00OO in excess Of
market prices for bullion under the
operation of the Pittman act. Special
interest attaches, therefore, to dis
claimer by Ravenal Macbeth, secre-
tary of the Idaho Mining association,
who states:
"While Mr.. Gilbert does not so
state, the uniformed reader would
infer that the $62,OO0,000 came from
the pockets of the taxpayers Of this
country, and that is what I am con-
fident he intended the uniformed
readers to believe, owing to the un-
friendly attitude he has shown to the
silver producers, whereas the facts
are that the government merely acted
as the fiscal agent for the silver pro-
ducers, and England exacted the fiscal
agents toll, and the transaction did
not cost the taxpayers a cent.
How the q. s. PrOfited
"The facts are that the government
sold to England 2OS, 100000 ounces Of
silver at $101 Is, with interest at
4 per cent. until paid, and repur-
chased this amount from the silver
producers at 81 an ounce.
"Now If Mr.. Gilbert in his commun-
ication to Senator Gooding had been
Inclined to be fair, he would not have
been guilty Of stating a half-truth,
which in effect makes a false state |
nent Of the conditions.
"Mr. Gilbert fails to state that when |
silver ranged from s1.35 to S1.37 an
an ounce the silver producers lived |
oyally up to their contract with the |
government under the Pittman act
and turned in their silver at 81. Nor
loes he give them credit for the DIFF
'erence between these prices and ST
when he mentions the amount MADE /
n excess Of market prices. without
he Pitmann act, silver would have
scared to $3.50 an ounce, possibly
higher, with resultant revolution m
india and the loss of the great war,
10 England advised our government:
md it was due to these representa-
ions by our government that the sill
rer producers, imbued with high pa
riotic motives, agreed to sell their
liver at 81 to be resold to England
o prevent this revolution.
Calls It Misrepresentation
Permit me to reiterate that this
liver transaction between the silver
roducers and England did not cost
he taxpayers Of our country a cent.
n fact, the government made money |
ut of It, Furthermore, owing to the
Ugh cost Of production, the silver l
roducers made but little money out

pigs wheat for one hundred and twen-

NEW YORK LIGHTS PAY
TRIBUTE TO HARDING
Crosses Blaze From Tall Buildings as
Presidents Body Rests in His
Fathers Home.

The night that the body Of Warren
G. Harding lay in his fathers home
in Marion, Ohio, while former friends
and neighbors filed by taking their
silent farewell Of the late President
of the United States, New York City
was also paying final silent
tribute to the dead President. AS
an impressive tribute of light blazed
forth from lofty buildings the city
over, to the memory Of the fallen
Commander-in-Ch Chief. High above the
streets and visible for miles around
huge crosses of light sprang up
against the black background of the
skyscrapers. These were viewed by
thousands within the city as we'll as
across the Hudson River in New Jer-
sey.
This, used for the first time in his
tory by New York to indicate the
city's mourning for public official,
was organized by the Building Man
ayers and Owners Association. From
dusk until the coming of dawn hun
dreds of these crosses Of light from
tall buildings all over the city kept
their solemn vigil. They were most
spectacular in the lower parts of the
city where the streets and buildinbs
were darkened at the close of the
business day. But even Broadway m
the heart Of the theatrical district
had its crosses shining steadily forth,
calmly ignoring the flashing Of near
by advertising signs.
Running almost the entire length
Of the buildings on which they were
formed, with cross-arms stretching
almost across the front of the struc-
lures, the lighted crosses carried their
message of sorrow to excursion
steamers and ferry boats in the bay,
and twinkled across the water to the
Jersey shore.
Down the front of the Whitehall
Building, facing Battery Park and
overlooking the historic spot where
at the close of the Revolution Wash
ington embarked to return to Mount
Vernon after having taken farewell
Of his officers, stretched huge cross
whose tree was formed Of lights In
offices on twenty-five floors, two win
dows wide, and whose cross-arms
stretched the length Of twenty win
dows, two stories hight, across the
width Of the building. This cross was
visible far down New York harbor.
The Singer Building at 149 Broad
way had four crosses, one on each
side of the building. They were set
high up on the building, being seven
stories tall and four windows wide at |
the cross-arm. The crosses could be
seen for miles. Trinity churchyard,
where Alexander Hamilton lies bur-
led, was faced on three sides by huge |
crosses formed on the sides Of the
buildings which hem it in. One cross
at Rector street, to the west Of this
graveyard, seemed almost to rise
from Hamilton's monument. On the
south was 70 Broadway, with a big
cross facing north. On the north Of
the graveyard was a cross facing
north on the building at Ill Broad
way. The cross extended for seven

VELOP better
men, IS SCOUT AIM


Someone has said that scouting is
the natural recreation from our pres
ent-day tendency to DO too much for
our boys and girls and leave to little
FOR them to do for themselves. Teddy
Roosevelt once said ''it is the hard
things OF life that develop charac-
ter" and without character our boys
OF girls chance Of success in life is
very slim.
Scouting is very simple. Baden
Powell, the man who first worked It
out, realized that character was one
of the requisites Of successful life,
and as we cannot inherit it It must
be developed. It had been proven
that the average boy develops fully
80 per cent Of hts character through
his play, or leisure time activities.
Therefore he drew up q program Of
leisure time activities that is so
tempting to a red-blooded boy that he
takes to It as a fish takes to water.
And this program Of activities, of
things to do, is so broad and Is made
up Of so many different subjects that
1t appeals to PRACTICAL yevery type
of boy everywhere.
