executive head of the club, will
WELD the gavel at the cornerstone
laying. Others prominent in the
organization and growth OF the club

ceremonies are scheduled to take
place at o'clock.
Experts are agreed that when
completed the COMPASSIONATE gOlf
course will In typography, scenic
beauty and spOrtIveneSS equal
that Of any golflng course III
America. The increasing pOpu-
larity Of the club can best be at
tested to by the rapidly mCreaS-
ing number Of members. 1t Is be-
lleved that it is only question

For some time back the waiting
lists at Columbia, Chevy Chase,
washington and other local clubs
have been growing steadily longer
and longer. The opening of Indian
Spring was thought would relieve
the demand for affiliation by golf
erS to the more pretentious organ
izations. but Indian Spring with its
rapid growth has just about All the
members it cares to cater to at the
present time. Congressional Will
supply a most pressing want.

The public links in Rock Creek
Park is meeting with far greater
favor among those who frequent
the course than had been antici-

winter rules prevailing local golfers
would not take any too kindly to
the new public course. The reverse

THIRTY CENT JUMP
STARTS MOVEMENT
OF IDAHO POTATOES

Caldwell-Possibilit that south,
ern Idaho farmers who last year pro
duced a large acreage of potatoe:
may realize something for them yet
is seen in a quotation Monday of IS
cents for Idaho Rurals. A week ago
potatoes were going at 80 cents a
hundred. One shipping firm here ex-
poets to start 25 carloads of 65-
cent potatoes rolling this week, and
other shippers are preparing to make
large shipments also.
Cold weather in the east and the
reported shortage in the Texas crop
are assigned as reasons for the un-
looked for demand that has doubled
the value of Idaho tubers in a week s
time.

day and succeeded in having con.
tinued for thirty days the emergency
freight rate on shipments of seed
potatoes within the state. Advised
by eastern Idaho farmers that they
could not get their seed all shipped
by March 80, the date on which the
emergency rate expired. The gov
ernOr Immediately took up the ques-
ton with the Oregon Short Line and
within twenty-four hours had Sc
cured an extension of the rate to
April 30.
This extension will apply only to
shipments within the state as the
time was too short in which to Sc
cure action by the interstate COM
merce commission for shipments
outside of the state. This will bring
great relief to hundreds of producers
of seed potatoes as the emergency
rate is half the regular rate. Being
thoroughly familiar with the trou-
bles of the farmers the governor was
quick to take action in a case where
he could secure definite help for
them.

The fire on the north side last
week resulted in the loss of $50
lambs and 65 ewes by Spencer Bros.
The fire came from a sudden rise of
the wind in the night which caught
up smoldering sparks from a week
end rubbish clearing fire that was
supposed to be out entirely when
looked at just before closing up for
the night of the parties who had set
the fire. 1t is always easy to give adj
vice after things happen but it is
the old lesson. March and April
winds must be expected in this part
of the state and they rise suddenly
and change direction instantly.
Therefore every one should be alb
solutely certain there is~no smoke,
spark or even hot ashes in any fire
which is left after shutdown.
