REVIEW OF THE TWIN FALLS
AGRICULTURAL CONFERENCE

The conference desires to call at
tention of the Idaho farer to a mum
Der of essential facts.
Livestock
In making plans affecting the
livestock business, it is well TO re-
member that butter, as compared
with other commodities, has a pur-
chasing power of 112, eggs 121,
been steadily coming up; that. in
the past, such periods as this of
heavy pork production and low pri-
ces have led to a reduction in breed
ing as drastic as to result later on in
a shortage, and indications are that
hog producers may now be moving
INTO one of the recurrent periods of
low production.
Livestock husbandry has always
been the keystone source of income
OF Idaho irrigated farmers. 1t is
well to remind ourselves that Idaho
farmers have right now an invest
ment OF
$10,664.000 in dairy cows
si3,318,00o in beef cattle
$21,921,0O0 in sheep
s 3.553,O00 in hogs
s 100000 in producing hens Zap
proximately)
No estimates are available for the
Investment in livestock equipment
Wise farmers are bankers are giving
first consideration to the mainte-
nance to full production of dairy
cows, poultry, sheep, beer cattle and
hogs by planning cropping systems
which will furnish ample food. They
recognize the danger of great loss
unless the great investment in live
stock and equipment is protected by !
reduction to full capacity. Uuless
feeds are abundant, many farmers I
may be required to sell high priced /
livestock at a great sacrifice :
The growing of food crops for
livestock is, therefore, regarded as
of first Importance. Cash crops
should receive secondary considera-
tion because of the small investment
which they carry at present and be-
cause of the greater risk attached
to the production and marketing of
such crops.
Grain Crops
OF all the grain crops barley re-
luires the least amount of irrigation
Lc mature. 1t is a first ranking
Grain food for livestock for Idaho.
Next to barley, oats requires the s
east amount of water and its i'm

cited shortage of commissioned per sonnel which, he said, had reduced the "quota of officers on duty with units of all components to less than 80 per cent of peace requirements" Lack of funds, he added, also had made it nee essary to issue clothing to enlisted men from war stocks, giving commands an unmilitary appearance or compelling soldiers to expend large proportions of their personal funds to keep up proper appearance in public.
 Reverting to needs of the army air service, the secretary declarde for Sin creased production facilities and an increase in our air service personnel in order to give us a peace force of 5000 officers and 25,000 enlisted men,"
 In the National guard and the or ganized reserves increases, MT. Weeks said the growth noted during the last fiscal year had been encouraging.
 At the end of the fiscal year," he said, "the guard was already growing beyond the limits set by current ap- propriations."
 Referring to the organized reserve, the secretary asserted that "an increase in the training over that now available for reserves is absolutely necessary to maintain popular interest and maintain efficiency in the reserve project"

NEGRESS KILLED
 BY AUTOMOBILE
Struck By Car Of E. R. McDavid
 IT,, While Crossing Street

Jennie Montgomery, 50, negress, was almost instantly killed at II o'clock Sat urday night on Twenty-fourth street, between Avenue B and c when she was struck by an automobile driven by D. R. McDavid, Jr., 23O Highland avenue, according to police reports.
 Witnesses told police that the negro woman was crossing the street when struck by the automobile. Following the accident, McDavid stopped his car and carried her to the Hillman hos pital. She was dead upon arrival, at- tendants said.
 McDavid furnished bond after being taken into custody by City Detectives Watson and Alexander and State Law Enforcement Officers Fred J. Cain, pending a coroner's inquest. Assistant Coroner H. H. Williams began a pre- liminary investigation late Saturday night.
 MT. McDavid made the following statement regarding the accident to The Age-Herald:
 T was going north on Twenty-fourth street, and do not think I was going more than 25 miles an hour. The wo- man was crossing the street diagonally, going west to east. blew my horn, and when she did not slacken her pace, again blew my horn and slowed down to about 15 miles per hour.
 "When I realized the car had struck the woman I immediately turned around, put her into the machine and rushed her to the hospital. Inves- tigation later showed the front of the car did not strike the woman. She undoubtedly had been hit by the sup porting bar of the left windshield"

COLORFIJL CROWD
 SEES ARMY WIN
fContinued From Page Ono. j

sSVubhhuC4 ChOnA A sSV SssOsJ and officials, including Secretary Will bur; had lunch at the stadium; wit messed the game, sitting during the first half on the navy side and during the second half on the army side, and then returned to Washington.
 As commander-n-chief of both the army and navy, he was compelled to maintain an impartial bearing during the contest, and at no time partici- pated in the cheering. He told friends that even personally he had no choice and his only desire was that the best team should win.
 Remains Tsciturn
 Taking seat near the fifty-yard line and just below the section occupied by the midshipmen, President Coolidge watched the game intently but in his usual taciturn, manner. The first half ended, he and Mrs. Coolidge were es- corted to the middle of the field by Secretary Wilbur; Admiral W. Eberele, chief of naval operations, and Rear Admiral Henry B. Wilson, superin- tendent of the naval academy. There the party was met by Secretary Weeks ; Major General John l.. Kinds, chief of staff of the army, and Brigadier Gen eraf W. Sladen, superintendent of the military academy and taken to the box set aside on the army's side of the field.

(Leased Wire To The Age.Herald)


 NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-Leading :heologians and divines are already en- gagged in picking to pieces the version of the Old Testament, translated from the original Hebrew and rewritten in- to modern colloquial English by the Rev. Dr. James Moffatt of Glasgow.
 A symposium seems to show general belief among authorities on the good book that neither Moffatt's Bible or any other of it's kind can ever hope to take the place of the standard auth orized ard King James versons now indelibly engraved on the Christian religion. It is conceded by some, how ever, that Moffatt's work-the first at- tempt to translate the Old Testament in 300 years-mey be of value in that the translation may be more accurate and certain obscure passages cleared up.
 Eliminates Jehovah
 Moffatt eliminates the familiar Jehovah of the earlier Testament, trans lating it as "the eternal;" and uses such words as barge, onions, riff-raff, clan, iinstead of tribe), lampstand, red omclette for "mess of pottage," and many other marked innovations.
 Dr. John Roach Stratton, who is famous for being against nearly every thing, said we are in danger of losing the Bible because it is being read in silly, chopped forms" He attacked "indis- criminate translations and Jetransla- tions of the Bible which are having such popularity today, and declared:
 ''The old Bible is good enough for me. It has helped me and guided me-"
 At the other end of the discussion is Rev. Charles Francis Potter, well

UNIQUE GAS ROBBER CAUGHT N BOSTON
Negro Accused Of Asphyxiating
 Victims Before LOOting

BOSTON, Nov. 29.-Enter the "gas robber," who enters apartments at mid night, turns on the gas to partially axphyxiate tenants, robs at leisure. turns off the gas, and then escapes un- molested with his poot.
 Boston police tonight have in custody David Burns, colored, of New York, all leged to have robbed at least six homes here recently by first flooding the places with gas, stupefying the occupants, and then taking his time in ribbery.
 Burns, alias Bob Fulton" is held in $25,O0O bail for hearing December 8, following his arrest and identified ton of $1,000 worth. of stolen goods which had been pawned, pawn tickets for the goods, police said, were found in Burns pockets.

KIP 4 PRISONER,
 WIFE CHARGES

NEW ROCHELLE, N. Y, Nov. %. The question whether the wealthy and socially prominent Rhinelander family of New York, somewhat flabbergasted at Leonard Kip Rhinelander's marriage to "colored girl," are holding the young bridegroom a prisoner to keep him from his dusky bride, has been raised by Mrs. Rhinelander, the former Alice Beatrice Jones.
 Judge Samuel F. Swinburne, who has been retained to fight the suit for an- nualment brought against Mrs. Rhine lander in Leonard Kip's name, an nounced Alice's belief in this theory tO- night. To support it, he produced note which Swinburne says was received by Mrs Rhinelander from her husband half an hour after papers were filed in the annulment suit The note says: q hope you will win this case. Get the best lawyer. "Leanard Rhinelander."

CONVICT IS SOUGHT
Man Who Threatened Fee Suspect In
 Bankers Death

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 29.-William R. Fee, banker of San Gabriel, found mysteriously slain in the Can Bernar- dino mountains last Tuesday was buried from his San Gabriel home near here today with simple ceremonies and only members of his family and few inti- mate friends attending. In her AL hambra home, a few miles from the graveside, Mary Watkins, young San Gabriel business woman charged by the widow with coming between her hus- band and wife, had retired into seclus- ion.
 From San Quentin state prison came new angle of the case. Search of records there revealed that last April a convict had been released, had threat ened to "get" Fee. His name was Ed ward B. Giauque. On August 30, 1921, he had attempted to hold up Fees San Gabriel bank, was arrested and prose- cuted and finally convicted, not on the holdup charge, but on one alleging the theft of an automobile. He was sen- fenced to from one to ten years in San Quentin and was released after a prison record of good conduct last April. Of- ficers now are attempting to check his movements since,

CHLORINE GAS IS ABANDONED
 AS COLD CURE

NEW YORK, Nov. 29.-The chlor- IN inc gas treatment for colds
 which received much publicity when President Coolidge and other officials took it in Washington, is more bother than it is worth, the New York City department of health has decided. While the treatment is actually deleterious in tubercular af- fectiOns, hay fever and asthma, it is practically worthless for other res piratory diseases, the health depart ment finds. Of 671 cases treated with the gas, some 5O6 patients an- swered questionnaire as to the re- suits, and it was shown that only 6.5 per cent thought they had bene- fitted. Throwing the chlorine gas treatment into the discard, the de- partment accused manufacturers and vendors of the chlorine apparatus of spreading propaganda attributing qualities to the gas which it does not possess. Its popularity was or ignally instigated by the United States army medical department.

Leading Clerics Attack
 Modern Version Of Bible
Dr. John Roach Straton Leads In Denunciatior
 OfDr Moffat' 8 Translation Of Old Testament

known New York modernist, who cha mnions the rendition of the Bible in modern speech.
 Dr S Parkes Cadman of the Central Congrega tional church in Brooklyn and an outstanding fundamentaiist, wei comes the translation as an aid on making clear the Bibles meaning, but hastens to add that no modern version can equal the dignified grandeur ot the King James verson style.
 Fears For Result
 "The eventual result of these trans lotions will be to brush away the bloom, the halo and the romance from the Bible," fears Rev. William Norman Guthrie, who is in more or less hot water with Bishop Manning because of his presentation of pagan pageants at the church of St. Marks On-The- Bouwerie.
 An official of the Methodist Advo. cate, church organ, said the Moffatt translation was lone of the best things that has happened in long time"
 T am much impressed by the fresh. ness and force of the new translation, ' Dr. Sherwood Eddy said. "Of course it canot profess to replace the stand ard, authorized, revised versions, but have used Dr. Moffatt's New restiment with great profit in my daily reading and believe thousands of laymen will welcome this new light thrown upon the text by modern research in a fresh translation in effective and intelli. gent English. It seems to be real con. tribution of great benefit"
 Dr. Eddy agreed with others, how. ever, that a satisfactory substitute could never be found for the accepted versions.
