Senator Gooding, Idaho,
Declares Slate Faces Union Pacific Monopoly tBr Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Dec. 7. Separation of the Central Pacific from the Southern Pacific system would "blast the last hope left In the hearts of the people of Idaho" for better railroad ser
vice, Senator Gooding, Republican,
Idaho, said today befcre the Interstate
commerce commission. Appearing in
his own behalf, he declared the com
mission should grant the Southern Pacific authority to continue Its present control of the Central Pacific line, even
though the supreme court decree has been entered ordering their separation. Idaho is facet with a practical monopoly of the Union Pacific and its subsidiaries. Senator Gooding said that the policy of that railroad had "wrecked and ruined the state of Idaho" by maintaining high rates. If the Central Pacific should bo separated from the Southern Pacific, he asserted, it would pass under the control of the Union Pacific directly or indirectly.

FALL PLOWING DELAYED BY DROUGHT, FREEZE IN SEVERAL STATES
WASHINGTON. Dec 7. Farm work has progressed under favorable weather conditions but fall plowing has been restricted by drought and freezing of the soil In a number of states, according to the semi-monthly crop report of the United States department of agriculture for the period Nov. 15 to Dec.
1. Droughty conditions have been broken in some sections but still continue over many areas. The condition of winter grains varies considerably. Drought has retarded growth in many areas and has reduced the expected acreage in some states. Where conditions have been favorable the grains have been making favorable growth. Seeding is not yet finished in some areas. Reports show less damage from the Hessian fly than usual. Corn husking is still in progress but the greater portion of the crop is housed. The quality of the crop is generally good. Car shortage has been somewhat relieved but the movement of the crop is still slow and large quantities are being cribbed for feed
ing on the farms in Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. Arkansas is buying corn.
Pastures Suffering. Pastures in Illinois, Ohio, and Indi
ana have improved while eastern pas
tures are suffering from the drouth. Warehouse receipts of tobacco have fallen off, due to poor weather for stripping and handling. Livestock generally Is in good health. Cattle are largely on feed in most areas. Less feeding of cattle than usual is reported in Georgia, while Illinois, Indiana and Ohio are feeding more heavily. Stocks of forage are large and animals are expect ed to winter well. The farm labor supply Is ample but wages too large for most farmers. Changes in the general agricultural situation have not been great in the last two weeks. , Heavy frezes have stopped plowing in Wisconsin and Michigan and northern Ohio. Indiana and Illinois.
