Southwest Idaho
Weather is Fine
Late Crops Mature Rap
idly; Rains Help
Pasture

Generally fair weather with moder'
ate temperatures prevailed the FIRST
part of the week. while during the lat
ter part a change to cooler with un-
settled weather and showers occurred.
The weather was favorable for all ag-
ricultural activities. Thrashing OF
cereals is completed in all but the
very late districts. Clover and alfalfa
seeds and beans are mostly harvested
and partly thrashed. with good yields
of beans to the acre reported from the
Twin Falls section. Potato digging is
becoming general. and the cutting Of
the third crop of alfalfa has begun
with yields reported better than the
two preceding cuttings. Apple pick
ing has begun in some sections and
will become general throughout this
district by next week. The picking
OF prunes has been delayed on ao-
count OF poor prices. and about half
OF the crop is still on the trees. Corn
is excellent, well maturcd. and ready
for frost. Rains greatly benefited
unirrigated pastures and the range.

operation OF Caldwell civic bodies in
a campaign to repair highways. par
,icular emphasis being laid on the Old
Oregon Trail from Canyon Hill
Parma to Nyssa. That the
big sign directing over this route has
twice been mutilated was one state
ment made by Mr. Mitchell who said
that the state highway department

will not be taken down. Mr.. Mitchell

.|DAH0LETTUCE
READY To ROLL
Prices Show Strong Up.
ward Trend; Quality
is High

Head lettuce prices are soaring, &C
cording to advices received Thursda,
by the Idaho Producers Union from
eastern markets. Quotations at Chi
cago Thursday will net Idaho ship
pers about Sl5O-Sl.7s per crate.
Shipments from this district will be
gin next week In fact some lettuc,
in the Parma country is ready for
packing now and a start may yet be
made Friday or Saturday. The Cald-
well stuff will not be ready, it is said
for another week or more. Quality
is said to be unusually high because OF
the remarkably favorable weather pre-
vailing here the past three weeks.
Warm days and cool nights have turn
ed the trick, it is said.
Asked Thursday if the rains OF this
week have harmed head lettuce, w.
T. Mccall, manager of the Idaho Pro-
ducers' Union, said that he did not
believe any material damage had re-
suited.
Stuff that is now ready for ship
ment may go soft, Mr.. Mccall says.
But cool weather following the rains
practically makes certain that little or
no damage will result to head lettuce
that is not ready to roll.
Prices over the country are reflect
ing failures of the lettuce crop in 9th
er districts, Mr. Mccall believes. Evil
dencc is rapidly accumulating to show
that southwestern Idaho is the only
part of this entire district where head
lettuce can be successfully produced.
Eastern Idaho this year is not having
success with this crop. The Wallowa
couatry in Oregon, counted on as a
certain producer, will not ship one
car this season.
About 1900 cars will be shipped
from this district this year, according
to present estimates. Most OF this
goes from the Immediately contiguous
territory.

JAP AN FACING
BUILDING PLAN
Destruction of Two Cit.
les Makes Construc-
ton Necessary

Washingion-HouSing operations a:
America knows them even in wal
times. appear Insignificant beside tn,
scope of the building operations ia
pan now faces in reconstructing the
great cities of Tokyo and Yokohoma,
says the far eastern division OF the De-
partment OF Commerce. The latest re-
ports place the destruction OF build
ings in the devastated areas at $4,000
in Tokyo. or about II per cent of the
total number in that city. while Yoko-
hama out OF the $1,000 buildings stand
ing before the disaster only $4,000
are left intact. The destruction in
the outlying districts may bring the
total of buildings destroyed up to
the half million mark, the large ma
jority of which are homes. This num-
Der, added to the housing shortage
that existed in Japan before the earth
quake, will neoessitate the construc-
tion of dwelling houses on large
scale. Since Japan normally looks to
the United States for about 90 per cent
OF its lumber requirements it is ex-
pected that the demand for American
lumber during the reconstruction peri
cd will be very heavy.
The price of Japanese lumber de
livered c. i. {. Yokohama or Tokyol
has been approximately 20 per cent
higher than that of similar qualities
of American lumber. and American
freight rates have been favorable. The
American market also finds itself in
a favorable position as regards de-
livery. II often happens that the
Japanese importer can secure delivery
from Pacific ports to Yokohama in
less time than from Hokkaido, Kara
futo, or even from the northern pro-
vinces of Japan proper.
Japans preference for American
lumber, aside from the price considera-
tion, is due, perhaps, more than any
thing else to the fact that our lumber
is more nearly like that of Japan prop
er than the product of any other
country from which it draws wood
supplies. This similarity of wood
makes it possible for Japanese build
ers to substitute American lumber for
Japanese in all building projects. In
fact. its use has become so universal
that American lumber is now specified |
in many instances.

HIGH SCHOOL To
|. PLAY At EMMETT
Lowell's Football War.
riors Ready for
Opening Whistle

Blake Lowell's high School football
warriors will undergo their first fire
of the season this afternoon when his
eleven engages the Emmett high
school aggregation at Emmett. Con-
hdent that his men will make a good
showing, considering the early season
game, but not at all sure that his
squad can bring home the bacon,
Coach Lowell will take not less than
20 men to Emmett today. The attn
etes will leave about noon in motor
lorries. Time of the game has not
been announced locally. Few Cald-
we'll fans. it is said. will make the
trip.
Probably every man who makes the
trip will get a chance in this game.
Lowell has but few experienced men
and he wants to test the mettle of his
material under fire. Thursday, on the
eve OF the battle, he was uncertain
as to what men would start the game.
He thought, however, that the lineup
would look something like this:
Ends, Earwood and Bacon, tackles,
Mum and Thayer; guards, Stevens
and Mccall; center, Crookham; backs.
Captain Teach, Turner, Albertson and
Platt.
While the center of the high school
line is heavier than usual this year.
ends and light backheld bring the
team average down. About l55
pounds average will be all that Cald
well high can boast. Coach Lowell
believes. and this is only an average
high school aggregation.
Emmett's strength remains some
thing of mystery.

Especial to The Tribune)

Washington-Senato Borah lost nC
time in calling on President Coolidge
upon his return to Washington. Th,
next day the Washington Star pub.
lished an editorial under the heading
The Farmers Relief Problem" This
editorial starts out with a thrill, as
follows:
Wanted: A practical method of
helping the American farmer under
the conditions spelling ruin for many
of the agriculturists, now confronting
him. President Coolidge, his cabinet,
Senator Borah OF Idaho and other leg
slators are giving the matter their
close attention. Ii such method can
be found and plan framed, requiring
additional legislation, then Congress,
Senator Borah believes, will be called
in special session by President Cool
idge, who is in hearty sympathy with
the plight of the farmers.
Senator Borah believes that it is
essential-and so does the President
that definite plan be approved by the
Administration before calling Con-
gress together. 'If we can't agree on
what should be done before an extra
session is called. we would not be
likely to agree afterward." is the way
the Idaho Senator puts it. Senator
Borah points out that the farmer today
is compelled to sell his products at
pre-war prices and to buy his supplies
at war prices. and at the same time he
is compelled to pay treble the amount
of taxes he paid before the war. There
is a big crop of wheat and OF other
staples this year, all of which tends
to decrease prices received by the
farmer"
