thru the press Of the valley regard
were urged to water early, to run 1t
upon the pastrues and on waste lands
and everywhere they could to soak
up the substrata early so that would
not have to be done when water was
needed for watering crops. 1t has
been urged that storing water in the
substrata all spring would help to
keep the water level from sinking to
dry up wells as well as for the pro-
lection afforded in the way of sub
irrigation, so no stored water is be-
ing released for such purposes now,
the supposition being that this has
been attended to.
Complaints of shortage of water
come from all directions and a good
many canal companies have been
working in the river to get water
into the canals. People on the west
side below Blackfo6t have built
riprap 500 feet long just below
Snake river bridge to hold the stream
to the channel near the west bank,
where the canals tap. This work has
been going on all spring and when
the crisis came the stream was where
they wanted it, and irrigation has
continued.
The Blackfoot reservoir having
been drained for repairs last fall,
contains only half the usual amount
of water, but it is in good condition,
and there are no leaks as heretofore.
The reservoir has never been ex
hausted before and the amount of
water actually stored and available
now is about equal to the amount
used in other years. The government
and Indian reclamation offices are
taking drastic steps to conserve the
water, and orders are being en-
forced to shut off water from every
who wastes it. The canals
depending on the natural flow along |
the Blackfoot river face a prospect |
of severe shortage as there is very |
scarcity of snow on the
headwaters and it runs off early. The
conservation by the beaver dams on
the creeks constitute their chief re-
lance for late water.
In the town of Blackfoot there are
already many lawns that are parch-
ing, and there is an unusual sale of
hose and other goods for sprinkling.
The city council when sinking the
wells, took time to drill both wells
20 a great depth, and there is hope
hat the water level will not sink
ow enough to cut off the city water.
It will be the chief reliance OF the
own people for saving their lawns
md shrubs. Water for irrigation of
,rops is due to the farmers rather
han for decorations of town prop
,rty, tho it Is desirable to save both
10 far as possible.

THE NEW KIND OF FARMER

BY Robert Poultney, head of agri-
culture department, Idaho Technical
Institute.
"Particularized Farming" is a
new term used for the first time in
connection with agriculture by C.
Ben Ross, former president of the
state farm bureau of Idaho Idaho is
so many hundreds of miles from mar
ket that "Mongrel Crops" and Scrub
Stock" will not stand the cost of
freight shipments to eastern points.
To produce profitable shipments the
Idaho farmer must be particular.
L. Be particular in the selection of
mental There is no chance for argu-
ment. 1t is the only possible way to
improve plants and animals.
2. Be particular in safeguarding
crops against disease. Certified seed,
treating seed potatoes and grain, and
spraying fruit trees at the right time
are steps in this direction.
3. You can get mich cows that
prduce 5000 pounds of milk in a
year without being particular, and
they are just as hard to keep as cows
producing 5000 pounds of milk, but
the latter turns in about four times
as much cash profit as the former.
4. Be particular about marketing.
Have something to sell every month
in the year; 1t may be eggs, butter
or cheese. When alfalfa is a drug on
the market at Sc a ton, feed it to
the dairy cows and make $40 ton
out of it.
The successful farmers of Idaho
are the ones that are particular.

COOLIDGE SEES
! LITTLE NEED OF
EXTRA SESSION
SPECULATION OVER
SPANISH FORM GOVT,
AFTER DIRECTORATE

Port vendres, France, Spanish
Frontier. Dec. 25.-(By A. Pal
though leading politicians Of Spain
continue to abstain from express
Ing themselves regarding the posi-
bilities Of the future government of
the country when the existing mill
tary directorate sees At to retire, nu-
merous hints are appearing in the
newspapers Of Spain concerning
what Is likely to occur.
Whatever the viewpoint from
which 1t comes. the idea seems to
prevail generally that the present
dictatorship is approaching the con-
clusion Of its term OF power. This
anticipated change. It is declared, is
not q consequence of the determina-
ton OF the Spanish people to GUST
the directorate, but 1t is because the
members of the directorate them
selves desire to quit q position for
which they admit they do not con-
slider themselves fully qualified.
1t Is stated by those familiar with
the situation that members Of the
military directorate have been
searching for months to find poten-
tial successors. steps have been taken
by the directorate, with the aid of
the clerical and conservative ele-
ments. to form a new party with
purely patriotic ideals. This party,
under the name of the Patriotic
Union, appears to have taken shape.
1t Is believed. observers say, that, as
q consequence of the recent CAM
paign against King Alfonso. some of
the former political leaders will
rally to the aid of the military di-
rectorates on the pretext that 1t is
their patriotic duty to protect the
monarchy. These former leaders are
expected to permit themselves to be
persuaded to accept office. This gov
eminent Is regarded as the one
which is likely to take over power
from the purely military directorate
while the national elections are be-
ing organized.
