FRUIT GROWERS ARE GIVEN A NEW CAUSE FOR WORRY Cold Storage Plants at the Market Centers Seem to Be Closed to the Western Growers. Is there gigantic cold storage trust being formed In the mlddlo west which will greatly cripple fruit growers In the state of Idaho as well as other states In the west'.' This Is the ques tion that is causing not a little worry to growers who have been cast and have had occasion to review the pecu liar conditions as they found them there with regard to the cold storage situation. I>. H. Moseley, a well known real estate dealer and a man familiar with the fruit industry, has Just re turned from a trip to Chicago and other eastern points. He was given an op portunity to review the cold storage situation. What Situation It. From facts that Mr. Moseley could secure it appears that heretofore a greater part of the fruit shipped from the west Is sold at public auction In Chicago. Buyers have In the past bid for and secured this fruit and then made arrangements with cold storage owners to care for the fruit at so much per box until such a time as the buyer could dispose of the fruit when it was taken from cold storage and delivered to the purchaser. When buyers attempted to secure cold storage space for their fruit this year they found that cold storage own ers had no space for sale and In face of this fact they considered It too great a risk to purchase on the market. In quiry at all cold storages developed the same condition of affairs. That the owners of the cold storage plants were doing a little business of their own In fruit was evident for they are said to have sent their agents on th-e auction market and bid in the fruit. Then they stored It and now have it In cold storage waiting for an advance In prices, with the result that the con sumers will be forced to pay the price demanded or go without fruit. The cold storage t owners can hold the fruit, It Is said, indefinitely and aro assured of a much better price when they un load than they could secure on the market now'. The condition is claimed to be serious one and may result In entirely new tactics being pursued in the sale of fruit grown in the western sections. It is viewed with some seriousness by fruit growers and buyers. The cold storage plan is said to extend generally and Includes not only the plants Chicago but in other large market centers.

CMJMIA MS QUEER METHODS Admitted That No Investi gation of Idaho Alfalfa Has Been Made. In order that a quarantine might he declared against Idaho alfalfa, State Horticultural Inspector A. J. Cook, of California, had Investigated the con ditions surrounding weevil claimed to be in Utah and Washington alfalfa, according to information conveyed by him in letters to a party in tills state, these letters having been turned over to State Horticultural Inspector John U. McPherson. Just why it was nec essary to investigate the alfalfa Utah and Washington in order quarantine the Idaho product is some thing that local officials and growers fail to understand. Horticultural In spector Cook has never, so far as can be learned, Investigated Idaho alfalfa. California was urged. If It felt that It had to quarantine against this crop In Idaho, to only quarantine against alfalfa grown In those districts claimed to be under the ban of the law. In Horticultural Inspector Cook's letter-, to parties In this state, which are now In the possession of Idaho's state hor ticultural Inspector, ho makes It plain that California has little Intention of lifting the quarantine, although he will reconsider the matter. He says: "We sent a man to Utah and made the fullest Inquiry In ittah and Wash ington before we declared a quaran tine. It Is very difficult to quaran tine a portion of a state and often quite unsafe. I will, however, go into the matter again and give It a very thorough examination and will, If pos sible, raise the quarantine or modify It, but I fear we cannot. The people of our slate would resent any such action." DEATHS—FUNEE/ r ,S The funeral of Aaron I.

The prospects of Governor James H. Hawley becoming second United States senator from Idaho if only for a brief month, to fill the recess va cancy made possible by the death of the late Welson B.

He has nothing to say upon the Issue but that Is not taken to Indicate that when he finally acts he will still he as silent. He has been busy holding conferences during today with many of the party leaders as well as prominent Republicans who have requested audiences. The great est pressure that Is being brought to bear upon the governor to accept the senatorial appointment himself Is com ing from those of an opposite politi cal faith, many of whom are urgent In their requests.

There are still many leading men who when consulted declared that the governor will, after all send the ap pointment north ns he declared he would at first, Irrespective of the re ports to the contrary and which prin cipally relate to the appointment of himself.
