CONDITIONS IMPROVE
Idaho Farm Agent Leader Says
Farmers Recovering.

Moscow, Idaho. o.-"yt is remark
able how little transient labor has
been employed on the farms OF
Idaho during the season just clos
ing" comments w. b. Kjosness,
state county agent leader for the
agricultural extension division OF
the University of Idaho college OF
agriculture, now in northern Idaho
comforting with agricultural agents
and getting material to aid in
making more efficient the &C. .oper-
alive work of the extension service.
1.-The farmers have traded labor
and have organized their crops so
there has been less necessity for
outside labor. The crops have
been only fair in Idaho this season
on account of the drouth, but the
prices have been better and it is
my opinion the farmers will be in
a better financial condition this fall
than at any time during the last
FIVE years.
1.-The greatest demonstration nf
skillful management in the history
OF Idaho agriculture has been put
on by the farmers this year and
they should be commended Tor the
splendid self reliance that has
made it possible for them to effect
such a change for the better. This
has been hard year, but II Idaho
can 60 through such year and
our farmers can make such a
splendid showing, there should not
be any apprehensions as to the
future OF agriculture in this state. "
