There is much speculation as to the prospective price to lie paid for Idaho apples, and while this is not yet fully determined, I uesire to ask the growers not to be too hasty in contracting their crop. From present indications we have reason to believe the price will be good, and we hope to be in possession of information that will in sure and stabilize the best price ob tainable. ^ Our reports from producers and State Horticulturist Graham are to the effect that we have one of the best apple crops ever grown in the state— good'quantity, size, color and remark ably free from worms. If united ef fort can be had on the, part of the growers, we should be able to realize a just and uniform price for them. We are now searching the markets for additional quotations, and if any growers have received quotations for their crops, which they feel is equit able, and tiiat market could handle a greater quantity than the grower is able to supply, it would be helpful to other producers if they would pluce the farm markets in touch with it. There should be paid a uniform price for picking, either by the day or by the box, that one grower will not bid against his associate grower. Have you any suggestions to offer as to what that uniform price should be? If the communities in any section of the state where fruits are not grown will organize under their farm bu reaus, or other suitable head, and pool their orders for fruits, submitting same to the farm markets department, we will place them in touch with pro ducers, that they may buy direct. Wheat. By way of answer to many inquiries respecting the sale of wheat, will say tliat the base price of $2.20 ut Chi cago terminal is a maximum price—a price fixed in order to prevent wheat advancing beyond that figure. I am informed that this price includes the cost of handling, by dealers, and transportation charges, subject also to any dockage or deductions justly made for foreign matter or inferior wheat. This fixed price does not mean that dealers must pay that full price, less transportation charges and actual cost of handling. Dealers are privileged to pay just as much less for the wheat as they can buy it of the producers You will see, by tlds, that the for. element of speculation, at the expense of the grower, is not eliminated ; while it is eliminated at the expense of the consumer, and that the producer pays the cost of handling, and all commis sion the dealer lias power to charge. The fixed maximum price of $2.20 bushel at Chicago would permit the paying of $1.85 per bushel, on an av erage, f. o. b. cars at southern Idaho points. It is estimated that the cost of handling is about 3c a bushel, which takes care of shrinkage, and in many Instances nets a profit to the dealer. It is quite certain that every above that is clear cut profit for the dealer, if his system eliminates need a cent less waste. All grains received are subject to dockage for sand, dirt, weed seed, stems and certain other mutter that may be in excess of one-half of one per cent by weight, and also subject to grading as to quality. The only way in which producers can protect themselves against exorbi tant profits on the part of the dealer is to pool their products and market direct, or through some farmers' or ganization now in existence, and of good standing.

Î GOVERNMENT BARES MORE PLOTS AGAINST UNITED STATES BEFORE THE WAR. Money Furnished by Germany's Am bassador for the Purpose of De stroying Life and Property, It Is Charged. Washington.—Further disclosures of far-reaching German propaganda, in trigues and plots In this country prior to the diplomatic break with Ger many, were made on Saturday by the committee on public information. In a bulletin styled "official expose," the committee quotes numerous let ters and extracts from letters seized by the department of justice In April, 1910, in a raid upon the New York office of Wolfe von Igel. Von Igel, in carrying on his manifold pro-Ger man and anti-American activities, the documents snow, was in constant touch with 'Jie German embassy and with Count von Bernstorff, German ambassador to the United States. "In the form of letters, telegrams, notations, checks, receipts, registers, cash books, cipher codes, lists of spies and other memoranda and records," the committee says, "were found indi cations—in some instances of the vaguest nature, in others of the most damning conclusiveness—that the Ger man imperial government, through its representatives in a then friendly na tion, was concerned witli— "Violations of the laws of the Unit ed States. "Destruction of lives and property in merchant vessels on the high seas. "Irish revolutionary plots against Great Britain. "Fomenting ill-feeling against the United States in Mexico. "Subornation of American writers and lecturers. "Financing of propaganda. "Maintenance of a spy system under the guise of a commercial investiga tion bureau. "Subsidizing of n bureau for the pur pose of stirring up labor troubles in munitions plants. "The bomb industry and other relat ed activities." Case of Holland. The committee, of which Secretaries Lansing, Baker and Daniels are mem bers, and George Creel, chairman, has tills to say concerning Holland : "It has long been an open secret that Holland is merely a way station for shipments of contraband into Ger many. Here is official coqfjrituition, from the Yon Igel records whWÄi would seem to indicate a suspicious and con fidential relation between the 'Holland commission' and the German diplomat 1c officials accredited to this country, or possibly a belief by the Germans that they could not successfully get the munitions to their own country. The message iu code, with interlinear translation, is eutered as 'A 2493' and headed 'German embassy, Washington, D. C., April 6, 1916.' It runs as fol lows : " 'Telegram from Berlin by secret roundabout way for Carl Heysen : Con sent sale Holland three hundred thou sand chests (cartridges) and two hun dred tons powder. I'lease get in touch with Holland commissioner. Sender, war minister, foreign office, iu repre sentation. " TIATZFELDT.' " Prince Hatzfeldt was an official of the German embassy. Tlie Hamburg-Americnn line bureau of investigation, the committee states, an "innocent pretending agency, was at tlie outset the secret service of the Hamburg- American Steamship com pany. Under Paul Koenig, its mana ger, it became an adjunct of the Ger man diplomatic secret service. (Signed) SEN. KING ATTACKS AUSTRIA. Says War Should Now Be Declared Because of Austria's Action. Washington.—Exposure of Count von BernstorfTs $50,000 slush fund produced Saturday these outstanding developments : 1— Approximately 75 per cent of con gress wants an investigation of the im putations that members were ap proached by German propagandists. 2— Tlie state department and other administration officials oppose an in vestigation. They believe there is nothing to be gained and that such a course would give Germany tlie im pression that a grave scandal was dis rupting the nation. It would array tlie 6tate department against congress. 3— Senator King read letters into the record showing that Austria, even while at peace with this country, had paid money in to offset the sentiment of the good work of the allies. He said this country should now declare war j on Austria. War Hits University Hard.
