Gates a recognition of the purpose
on tie part of Idaho to make the
most of it's unequalled dairying pos
sibilities. The purpose was to di-
rect attention to Idaho's dairying re-
sources. 1t appears that this Is be-
ing accomplished. The article in the
Tribune says:
The best advertising is that which
reaches in a definite and emphatic
manner the man who is in the mar
ket to buy what you have to sell.
Idaho recognizes this fact and is put
ting it to practical use.
Idaho is a dairy state. She can
produce the finest cow feed and in
quantities sufficient to feed twenty
times the number of COWS now to be
found in the state. She can make a

and has a market for twenty times
the amount she produces.

USING SUGAR IN
RECORD QUANTITY

With the approach of the harvest
ing of the sugar beet crop in the
western section of the country ani
the beginning of operations of the
sugar factories, interest attaches te
the sugar situation in the nation as
a whole.
Up to the middle of September
the people of the United States have
used S,4OO,O0O,O00 pounds or over
100000 tons of sugar since the
first of the year according to fig
ures compiled by experts of the sug-
ar trade This is the largest amount
ever distributed in like period of
time and in consequence the guam
3 tity remaining from the large crops
produced last season in the United
States and Cuba has been reduced
to less than 100000 tons.
The amount required to meet the
needs of the country for the remain
der of the year is placed at over two
billion pounds. The rapid decrease
in visible supplies under the influ-
ence of the heavy consumption dur
ing July and August is the principal
reason for the advance in the whole
sale price of sugar during the past
six weeks. Further advances are
looked for in trade circles during
the next month as the country will
be forced to rely almost entirely on
sugar imported from Cuba during
that period With the exception of
fifty to sixty thousand tons the en-
tire crop of Hawaii, Porto Rico and
the Philippines have been shipped.
BY the middle of October the new
crop of beet sugar produced in wes-
tern states will begin to come upon
ing this sugar will begin operating
about October l. About the same
time Louisiana cane sugar will also |
become available as the mills in that |
state begin grinding cane in October
Louisiana will have only half crop |
this year on account of the prolong-
ed period of dry weather The beet
sugar crop will be little larger
than last year and is expected to
reach about 100000 tons. Earlier
in the season it was estimated that
the output would be 900, 900 tons or
over but dry weather in California,
Utah and Idaho and as far east as
Colorado and Nebraska has cut down
the yield throughout these sections
OF the entire beet sugar crop not
more than half or about 100000
tons can be marketed before the
close of the year. The tot Il amount
of beet and Louisiana sugar avail
able before the end of the year will
be perhaps 100000 tons or hardly
to supply the needs of con-
sumers until cane sugar of the next
crop begins to come on the market
along in January. 1t is fortunate
thing for the country that it has
these domestic crops to rely on as
a serious shortage would
be in prospect and prices would rise
% very high levels.

the merchants advertising, will be unlghted in the
evenings. Every merchant has agreed to cooperate
with the power companies long the shortage

Of course, the chief sufferers will be the agricul-
tura interests should the power fail entirely and the
present effort Of the Southern California Edison and

EQUAL TAXES FOR GERMANY

The Dawes committee German finance is now
said to have up against the real difficulty con-
fronting everybody who has tackled the problem OF
German reparation. 1t has been comparatively easy
to frame a plan whereby Germany would be able to
pay reparaton. The real question remains-with this
plan accepted, how can Germany be made to
play her part?
The committee is working out what might be
called the mechanics of German payment. 1t involves
taxes. Granted that Germany, through moratorium
of about two years and ample loan, on sufficient
security, start the German industrial machine to
funconing again, it will remain to collect the money
from Germany when payments scheduled to begin.
That will mean mainly the payment by Germany OF
money raised by taxes imposed the German people
by the German government.
The way has been prepared for raising large
amount in that way, by the wiping out Of the
German domestic debt With interest to pay on in
debtedness to themselves, the Germans the experts
agree will be able to pay pretty heavily on their in
debtedness to the Allies.
They have not yet been taxed much, either during
the war or since The committee is going to demand
that, in order to meet reparation charges they pay
hereafter heavy taxes paid by the French
and English who victims of the German war That

William Green, third vice president
of the American Federation of Labor
and treasurer of the United Mine
Workers, was elected Saturday, by
the Executive Council as President OF
the American Federation to fill out
the unexpred term of Samuel Com
pers, deceased. Mr.. Green is an
advocate of prohibition and he does
not smoke, but he is, his friends say,
man in whom are combined those
qualities of tact, urbanity, considera-
ton, and friendliness which make him
instinctively a good fellow. This is
the estimate of those who have known
him long.
From his school days in Coshocton,
o., through his twelve years as coal
miner, then his brief but distinguished
career in the Ohio senate, and finally
the years since 1913 during which he
has served as secretary-treasurer of
the United Mine Workers his popular
ity has never failed.
He is known as a fighter, and he has
not hesitated, on more than one occa-
sion, to oppose even the projects of
Samuel Gompers.
Mr.. Green is 81 years old and the
father of a family of six, five girls
and boy.
The election was held in the Elks'
club here, where funeral services for
Green's predecessor were conducted
Friday. All ten members of the
executive council were present. Six
votes were enough to elect.
Green, who has been an official of
the federation since 1912, will carry
out the policies of Mr.. Gompers.
James Duncan, first vice-president
of the federation for many years,
resigned his office on the election of
