FARMERS BILLS
Idaho Expert Says Value of Hen
Not Approximations
Required Is Small.

THE product of the hen is equiva-
lent to the coin Of the realm" says
Prem Moore, poultry expert of the ex-
tension department of the University
of Idaho, in a special article in the
current issue of the Idaho Farmer.
she returns a profit to her owner
and saves the financial situation in
times of stress. Yet she Is the o
neglected of all farm animals. More
farm children are fed. clothed and edu-
Gated from poultry income than from
any other sources. An Investment in
care for the farm hen is the most
profitable that can be made.
There is a small appreciation in
Idaho as to just what the poultry in
dustry is producing in wealth. There
is still less appreciation of the wealth
producing possibilities of the industry.
Many farmers do not realize. even with
the small flock (not well fed and cared
for), Just how much of the farm x
penses are borne by the hens.
Would Pay All Taxes.
According to the last government
census, there are 42,1O9 farms in Idaho.
Figuring possibilities. let us take into
account eggs alone, on the basis of
200 hens to the farm. with an average
production of 10 dozen eggs per hen
at an average price of 25 cents per
dozen. There is not an average OF 200
hens on Idaho farms. neither Is the
average production as high as IL dozen
eggs per hen. However, there are
many general farms in the state with
500 hens and quite a number running
as high as 1000 and a few with even
more. There are many large locks
averaging Is dozen eggs per hen. The
price will average 25 cents per dozen
in Idaho. Forty-two thousand one hun
bred nine farms. with 200 hens to the
farm would mean a total hen popula-
ton for the state of S.421, 800. An aver
age yearly production. of II dozen eggs
per hen would mean lO1. 061 500 doz-
ems. At Is cents per dozen, $25. 265,
400, which is more than Idaho's total
tax, of all kinds, including state, mu-
nnicipal, roads, schools and public in
stitutions.'
Successful poultry business requires
less canital than any fvne of farnf1np

The Yakima valley will produce a
total of $4,000 carloads of fruit and
vegetables during the present season,
according to the estimate of the Yak
ina Valley Traffic and Credit asso-
citation. Apples will constitute the
major portion of the shipments, as 1t
is estimated that the valley will send
out 1880 carloads this year.

During September apple shipments
from the W~enatchee district are ex-

FINAL EFFORTS
IN COAL STRIKE
Both Sides Meet With Gov
ernor Pinchot to Present
Their Answers to Plan
SECRET IS GUARDED
Operators Send Their Reply
from PhiIadeIphia-Shut-
down is Expected Tonight
SECRET IS GUARDED

HARRISBURG, Pa, Aug. 81 (By
The Associated Press) Miners
union representatives handed Cover
nor Pinchot today an answer to his
proposals for settling the anthracite
labor controversy without suspen-
sion which declared themselves will
ing to negotiate further on the basis
of his suggestions, but dissatisfied
with several particulars of his offer
as made. Operators who entered the
conference with the governor tenn
porarily withheld their response
from publication.
The proposed ten per cent In
crease in wages which the governor
offered, the union answer found to be
unsatisfactory. 1t reiterated the de-
mand for check off, collection of
union dues.
No assurance was given that the
union would withdraw the suspen-
sion order which takes effect at mid
night today, but the union was de-
clared to be ready to go again into
joint conference with the operators
on the governors proposal.
The miners union response, pre-
pared by John L. Lewis, interna-
tional president of the United Mine
Workers, and his associates, was to
be put early before meeting of the
scale committee of the organization
for ratification. Operators met yes
terday at Philadelphia, and the
closely guarded text of their answer
was brought to the capitol by S. d.
Warriner, chairman of the policy
Icommittee which has negotiated
fruitlessly for two months in the sit
uation.
Much depended upon the operat-
ors position as to what could be
done, but Governor Pinchot was
said to be maturing plans for fore
ing forward his endeavor to avert
suspension. He might ask, it was
suggested, a thirty-day truce and
withdrawal of the union orders for
the shutdown while the discussion
proceeded. In any case, it was
pointed out that the shutdown or
dered by the union to begin at mid
might would affect coal production
very little for three days. Half day
operations are the rule in the re-
gion on Saturday and with Sunday
and Labor Day holiday for Mon
day, there was time in prospect for
continuation of discussion.

CITY QUIET after NIGHT RIOT
Mayor Unaware OF Big
Riot Here Last Night

I'VE will allow no more meetings
without permits declared Mayor
William G. Wilson today when asked
what action he and the chief OF
police will take in the future.
The mayor explained that although
a letter had come from the Klan, due
to the fact that he spent yesterday
fishing he did not receive the COM
munication until after he returned
to his Office this morning.
The mayor said that the first he
knew of the trouble was when he
heard the riot call. He had already
gone to bed and after getting up and
making several attempts to get in
telephone communication with the
police station without success went
back to bed and knew nothing fur
ther about the matter until this
morning.
He declared that the officials of
the city will do their best to see that
a repetition of the affair last night
does not reoccur, but he was also of
the opinion that as long as people
are law-lbiding they are within their
rights.
No permits for the meeting were
given, the mayor said, but the chief
of police requested that the meeting
not be held. The chief according to
the mayor. was informed that those
desiring to hold the meeting were
within their legal right and so no
move was made to stop it.
The letter is dated from Trenton
and according to the post mark was
mailed in Newark on August 20 at
4:S0 p. m. The letter bears what

EXPLAINS CALL
Of THE EF|REMEN
Chief Campbell Says Men
Were Deceived by Smoke
Caused by Tear Bombs

| John Campbell. chief of the fire
department., made the following
statement this morning regarding
the part the firemen took in the
rioting last night:
washington Hose and Chemical
Company was the only company at
the scene of the disturbance. They
responded to an alarm which show
ed on the indicator in their house
to be box 35. AS a matter of fact.
however, 1t was no fire alarm at all,
but was police call. The fire alarm
system Is so unreliable that it Is
common occurrence to have wrong
numbers show up in various houses.
As the firemen rushed up Smith
street in response to what they sup
posed was an alarm of fire, they
were attracted by the smoke caused
by the tear bombs. They had every
reason to believe that there was
fire. I had been out of town, but
arrived at about the time the Wash
ingtons answered the alarm. l went
at once to the scene and finding no
fire, ordered the apparatus back to
its house. Only two lengths OF hose
were taken from the apparatus, ana
but little water was spilled. no
damage was caused by water. NO
hose was cut at any time during
the evening.
Later in the evening Chief Ton.
nesen went to a box to sound riot
call and his hand evidently touched
the plate which sounds the fire
alarm for that box. This was box
25. To this alarm the Lincolns, the
Protection Hook and Ladder and the
Eagles responded as is their custom.
Upon reaching the box and finding

ITALY RECEIVES
GREECE s REPLY
Government Considers Reply
to Premier Mussolini's Ulti-
matum on Indemnity

ROME, Aug. 81: (By The Assoc
lated Press)-The Italian govern
ment today had before it Greece's S
reply to Premier Mussolini's ulti-
matum embodying seven demands
for reparation and indemnity for the
massacre of the Italian officers serv-
ling on the Greco-Albanian boundary
commission.
The reply declares that the Greek
lgovernmea. INSIDERS IS unjust the
lattributioa to II by Italy of .esponsi-
bility for the assassinations, and
says 1. fiads it impossible to ac-
lcept three de1.ands IN the Cltimtum
considering IhtIn viola ions of the
honor and sovereignty of the Greek
state.
These demands were that a
Itwenty-one gun salute pc paid by a
Greek naval squadron to the Italian
flag: that the Greek authorities in
stitute a thorough inquiry into the
massacre on the e:ene Of the clay
ings, assisted by the Italian military
attache in Athens, and that ell the
guilty be executed.
The Greek reply promises formal
apology for the incident, but in a
modified form from that laid down
in the italian uitimarum, and also
agrees to the celebration of a relig-
ious function IN memory OF the VIC
TINS. It offers "just indemnity" to
the families of tne slain mission
ers, and concludes with the nope
that Italy will acknowledge l;reece's
desire to give satisfaction.

MERCHANTS At
THEIR STORES
Smith Street Storekeepers
Fearful that Their Places
Suffer Damage

Most of the merchants and busi-
ness men near the riot scene were
stationed at their places of business
until the early hours this morning.
They give credit to the police Tor
the work done in saving their build
ings from ruin. Several of the places
neighboring the Odd Fellows hall
were damaged considerably by fly
ing stones.
The mems furnishing store of
Cannon and Sheehy was probably
damaged the most. four window
panes and a show case stationed in
front of the doorway were broken,
Mr.. Sheehy said this morning that
most of the damage was done when
the first rush was made, while minor
ruin was caused by the on and off air
attack from the opposite side OF
the street.
Mr.. Sheehy also added that the
police aided in helping him remove
his merchandise from the windows
to a safe spot soon after the glass
was broken.
H. L. Hall, who owns stationery
store on the other side of the Odd
Fellows entrance, said today that
outside of the fact that two plate
glass windows were broken in his
place, the situation was handled
very well. One of the windows
broken at his place contained num-
erous stationery articles and as far
as has been checked up this morn
ing nothing was missing. The police
also aided in removing the articles
here. =,
while practically every window in
the two upper floors OF the % Odu
Fellows building was broken, only
two other business places were dam
aged. A window in the National
Photo studio over the L. Pargot
dry goods store was penetrated by
a small stone and cracked the pane
and at the Ross stores
and awning rod was bent ana parti-
ton erected for protection to the
plate glass windows was knocked
down.
A few of the stores in the neigh
borhood of the firing line barely
escaped serious damage and were
only saved by awnings and over
| hanging roofs which halted the
rocks and flying articles on their way
| to destruction.
w. E. Roberts, of Roberts q Liep-
erman jewelry shop, said that theii
plate glass windows were saved from
ruin only by the awnings which hf
lowered after the first rush to tht
building. Other merchants founo
rocks scattered in front of theii
doors this morning which were
either stopped by the electric wires
in front of the building and bounced
away in different directions, or were
not accompanied by enough speed &c
carry them to their destination.
Albert Leon told the News TO-DAY
that his six-story building was also
well protected. no damage being
done and no attempt made to ruiz
any of his property. Some of the
remaining material left over after
the completion of the Leon building
was used in the air attack, while a.
the blacksmith shop of James smith
on King street the brick walk was
rooted up by the gang.
Statements regarding the FAVOR
ing or the disapprovement or the
Kian meetings could not be secured
from several merchants along smith
street.
