cost of freighting alone being 50

Those were the days of high
prices, being before the advent of
railroads in the west.
Mr. Clarkson was elected county
commissioner of this county in 1884
and re-elected in 1884.
Death was caused by leakage of the
heart and Mr. Clarkson had been con
fined to ills bed the past six months. |

No Tango at Wellesly Tonight.
WELLESLEY. Mass., Feb. 6.—It
will be a tangoless senior "prom"
] which Wellesley girls will give to
night in tlie Mary Hemenway gymnas
ium, scene of countless Terpsichorean
events of other years. As a result of
the faculty ban on the Wiggly tango,
tlie girls are sad. Gloom about the
classrooms today could be cut with
a knife.
The senior "prom" generally is at
tended by scores of Harvard students,
and as Harvard men have gone in for
the tango at all of thefr dances, the
girls feared the annual "prom" this
year would be dubbed a frost.
Feared Lynching—Hanged.
ATLANTA, Ga., Feb. 6.—Three ne
groes, George and William Hart and
Robert Paschal, were hanged here to
day for the murder of Mrs. Seth Irby
of Jefferson county, several weeks
ago. Feeling near the scene of the
crime was so strong the authorities
feared lynching. The trial was held
only last month.

ENGINEERS GET POINTERS
Problems of Vital Interest to Idaho
Discussed at Meeting Held
at Boise.
Boise Captiai News: Reclamation
engineers, water masters on the
various projects and officials in the
service in Idaho and several from
outside points gathered in Boise this
of three
morning for a conference
days to discuss problems of mainten
ance and operation and for the pur
pose of exchanging ideas and discuss
ing matters of value which can be put
in practice and which will make the
service more efficient.
F. E. Weymouth, supervising engi
neer for Idaho, is presiding at the con
ference. The speakers this morning
were C. R. Burkey of Jerome, who
gave a history of the maintenance
problems on earthwork and wooden
and metal flumes on the Twin Palls
The engineer
North Side project,
covered the subject well and it was
followed by a discussion, a number of
questions being asked the speaker
an( j maintenance problems of flumes
on other projects brought up.
John U. McPherson, general field su
perintendent for the North Pacific
Fruit Distributors, spoke on the topic
"Marketing Crops." He emphasized
two essential points necessary to the
successful moving of crops. One was
the standard package, which lie stat
ed could be depended upon by buyers
as being o. k. and the other was the
furnishing
nf
a certain
so that buyers
amount of produce,
could depend upon getting a certain
quantity from a certain district, know
ing what the quality would be.
He
system fo
declared that the only
marketing crops was through an or
ganization, the farmers pooling their
products, conforming with the grade
demanded, and shipping in bulks, thus
getting better rates and selling
through an agency which had to be
reckoned with on the markets. He ex
plained the system by which special
brokers were maintained in market
centers, how the farmers were kept
posted on the market and the distribut
ing system by which cars were moved
on from points where prices were low
to points where they were higher.
He gave a history of his work in the
potato field last year, stating
farmers at first refused to pool, be
lieving that they could do better by
shipping independently, but declared
that by December all were ready to
pool. He stated that the grade was
the only thing Insisted upon by the as
sociation but that was strictly enforc
that
ed.
Following his address Mr. McPher
son was asked
The topic proved a live one and was
only temporarily halted by the noon
hour, being resumed at the opening of
the afternoon session.
A change in the program was nec
essitated this afternoon owing to that
fact that J. H. Lowell was obliged to
leave the city and his address on
"How to Raise the Efficiency of Irriga
tion Farming," was given.
There were some 42 service men in
attendance. Following is a list of those
who had registered up to 2 o'clock
