STATE BOARD OF bDUCAT ON
BY
hon. herman j. rossi
Moscow, Ida., Sept. 9, 1914.
Editor Caldwell Tribune,
Caldwell, Idaho.
Dear Sir:
In accordance with promise made
you recently, beg to advise you that
the State Board of Education and
Board of Regents of the University
of Idaho elected this evening Mr. O.
D. Center, having in charge "Better
Farming" work in North Dakota as
Director the Agricultural Extension
work in Idaho under the University of
Idaho control.
A practical and typical farmer com
bined with a general and technical
knowledge of agriculture and animal
husbandry, knowing the problems of
western rural communities with its
attendant hardships, difficulties and
handicaps, combining his experience
as a practical and educated farmer,
exceptionally successful not only in
the great state of Illinois, in the agri
cultural college of which he ,was a
member of the faculty in North Da
kota, we belive him to be an acquisi
tion to the state of Idaho, who will
prove himself immensely valuable to
the farmers.
In personality and action as well as
physically and mentally he is a great
big man.
We consider ourselves extremely
fortunate in securing his services and
as he will operate mainly in your por
tion of Idaho, we feel sanguine of his
making ''good" in every sense of the
word.
His most notable work will be
found in his actual demonstrations on
the farms and in the farm homes.
In Illinois and North Dakota he
has been able to show the farmers
how they may overcome the difficul
ties of securing farm help through
diversification of cnops harvested by
means of dumb animals.
His illustrations of how weeds
plant diseases and injurious insects
may be eliminated have been success
fully accepted and adopted with splcn
did results.
Taking all in all, Mr. Center ii
easily numbered one of the foremost
men in America in the big construc
tion work of agricultural extension,
improvement of rural conditions, both
on the farm and in the farm home.
Sincerely yours,
HERMAN J. ROSSI
Wallace, Idaho.
Chairman Extension Committe
the University of Idaho.
It is the intention of the board of
education and the board of regents of
the university to co-ordinate the activ
ities oil the demonstration farms, the
work of the field experts in animal
husbandry, horticulture, entomology
pure seed and irrigation experts, coun
ty agricultural experts, home econo
miés, boys and girls club work and all
other forms of universtiy agriculture
extension. Through this co-ordina
tion it is intended that service shall be
given to every rural community in the
state. Moreover, it is expected that
all the workers of the extension field
will be brought into close and intimate
relation to the departments in the ag
ricultural college and to the progres
sive reasearch workers in the experi
ment station. On the one hand, this
will keep the extension workers in
close and vital relationship to the
teaching and research centers and on
the other, it will intimately relate the
teachers and the research investigator
to the practical and important prob
lems throughout the great state of
Idaho.
This has been badly needed. A
great big plan, requiring an enormous
amount of work, tending however to
a set and definite plan \vhich we hope
will make Idaho first as a successful
agricultural state.
The resignation of W. L. Carlylc as
Dean of the Agricultural College and
director of agricultural experiment
stations of the University of Idaho,
was today_ accepted by the State
Board of Education and Board of Re
gents of the University of Idaho.
Prof. J. S. Jones was elected as vice
director of experiment stations and
with committee composed of himself
as chairman, Professors Peterson and
Vincent, with Dr. John J. Putman,
will handle the experimental stations
of the state. *

"THE GREAT STROKE" AT
THE BUNGALOW THEATRE
Another Exciting Picture Play at
Popular House.
Saturday night Lucile Love at the
Bungalow theatre. This popular pic
ture will be on during the next three
weeks. After that "The Tray of
Hearts" in serial will follow. Mana
ger Waters has made arrangements
for a special every Thursday night.
Thursday evening, September 24, will
be presented in five acts "The Great
Stroke," a synopsis of which follows:
Colonel Hudson, tired of paying the
debts of his nephew. Lieutenant Egan,
refuses once for all, the Lieutenant's
demands. Having pledged his honor
as an officer for payment of his debts,
Egan, in despair, forces the Hudson
safe and takes $2,500. Boldly admit
ting the theft, Egan is denounced by
his uncle, and sent to jail. In depart
ing he makes a threat that inasmuch
as he has been branded a thief, he will
remain one. After 2 years' imprison
ment, he is freed and at once returns
to the home of his uncle, and again
robs the safe. He is discovered by
Mary Hudson, his cousin and sweet
heart. who induces him to return his
booty and take a new start. Person
ally furnishing the funds for this, she
bids him, for her sake, to become a
better man. Instead of which he falls
n with a (fang of crooks, of which he
becomes leader, under the name of
"Dr. Morris." Having received word
that the firm of Herzog & Company
is to send a special messenger with a
valuable shipment of pearls oil a cer
tain train, "Dr. Morris" personally
conducts the party. Stepping front
his compartment, he crawls under the
car and bores a hole through the floor
into the one occupied by the messen
ger. and forces a deadly fume, by the
aid of a specially designated appara
tus. upon the unsuspecting messenger.
The messenger becoming stupified
does not regain consciousness until
the "Doctor" has taken the pearls and
is well on his way home. Detectives
arc empolyed and a reward offered
for the return of the goods. Being
famous pearls, the gang has difficulty
in disposing of themv so decide to ac
cept the reward. During the trans
actions. the hiding place of the gang
is discovered and they are tracked,
but outwit the police. During the
escape, in an automobile, "Dr. Mor
jumps on the running-board of a
car, going in the opposite direction,
and leaves his comrades for the au
thorities.
Going back to the home of his
.Sweetheart, he seeks forgiviness. and
they immediately sail to foreign lands,
to find happiness and respectability.
SUÏT BROUGT AGAINST
O. S. L. RAILROAD CO.
Plaintiff Alleges Short Line Refused
to Accept Ticket.
Mrs. Lottie McComb, as guardian
of her minor son, Clifford C. Mc
Comb, has brough suit in the district
court against the Oregon Short Line
f or damages in the sum of $10,000. It
is alleged that trie McComb boy
boarded the west bound pony the
evening of September 5, and that the
conductor refused to accept the ticket
which he had bought at Ontario for
Crystal, Idaho. It is further alleged
hat he abused the boy by kicking
and cuffing him, finally ejecting him
rom the train at Payette.
What Happened at Payette.
In con-ieciion with the case cited
above :ht layette Independent I. «s
the tollowing particulars:
On last Saturday evening Clifford
Clemvns got on the west bound pony
at Ontario, bound for Crystal, dem
ons. who is a boy under age, was
intoxicated. On the way between
»ntario and Payette he and the con
ductor had some difficulty on account
of Clemmons being intoxicated, the
conductor taking some bottles from
him and throwing them out of the
car w ndow. The conductor refused
to take Clemmons' ticket and when
the train reached Payette he threw
him ofî in a ve^- rough manner, land
ing him sprawling on the platform
Officer Jefferies was soon on the
ground and helped Clemmons to his
feet and started to take him away.
The conductor followed Clemmons up
and insisted upon having it out with
him, saying to him, "hit me, just hit
me," etc. Clemmons muttered some
thing in a maudlin way and while
Jeffries was still trying to hold him
up and get him away, and after he hiyl
told the conductor) to stay back and
he would take care of him, Clemmons
threw out his hand and lightly brush

UNITED STATES WELL
PREPARED FOR WAR
Plan* Are Ready For Action Against
Any Country in the World.
(Philadelphia Public Ledger)
The militarj authorities of tile Unit
ed States have in readiness plans of
operations for war with any nation on
earth.
Some persons see in the European
trouble the mcnance of an immediate
"world war." As far is the United
States is concerned, "one never can
tell." If there were no Japan there
would be less concern today over the
possibility that America may become
involved, but, Japan aside, it is per
fectly conceivable that the United
States through some turn of events
may be forced to take a part in hosti
lities which now seemingly are to br
confined to the Continent of Europe.
Advanced Officers in War College.

I duty of this war college to make plans
' in advance for any campaign in which
the land forces of the United States,
under any conceivable circumstances
may be forced to enter against any
power in the world—American, Euro
pean or Asiatic.
Near Newport there ts a Naval war
college, where plans for sea campaigns
against the naval powers, one by one,
are laid. Frequently there are joint
studies and joint conferences of the
wnr college students and the Naval
college students. The plans, which arc
made and which always are ready to
be put into operation, comprise a com
mon scheme when necessary for cam
paigning by land and sea.
"In Times Of Peace."
It is the business of the army and
navy officers of the United States in
times of peace to prepare for war. It
may seem curious to the laymen, but
there are plans in existence for the
use of the armed forces of the United
States against those of countries with
whom from the time our history be
g'ns we never had a whisper of trou
ble.

TUXEDO is the logical smoke for million

Tuxedo is the logical smoke for the eco

To buy cheaper tobacco means to get
less pleasure out of smoking, because it is
impossible to make a tobacco as good as
Tuxedo at less than the Tuxedo priceI

Plans All Mapped Out.
If tomorrow some happening-un
hearlded should force this country in
to war with Russia there would be
forthcoming from the War and Navy
departments a complete plan for of
fensive and defensive operations. With
the plant there would be a table show
ing the strength of every arm of the
Russian land service, the name, sta
tion, armament and tonnage of every
vessel of the Russian navy. The
points of least resistance at the mom
ent of last acquired knowledge could
be given. The food supplies of the
enemy would be tabulated, and in fact
everything of known service to th»
American army and navy would be
under the hand and eye of the govern
ment authorities.
Applies to AU.
What is true if war should be declar
ed with Russia is true in relation to
possible hostilities with every other
power on earth, from little Portugal
to Great Britain.
1 he instant that there was a whis
per that we might become involved
with Japan over the school question in
California, a plan for engaging Japan
in war to the best advantage of the
United States was brought out ready
to be put into operation. That plan,
like plans affecting other countries, is
e *' s . ten ce today, but it has been
amçliflied and is up to the minute.
