V'" VilX. tr - About three dozen farmers congregated in front of the state Capitol Tuesday aboard 12 tractors and other vehicles for the start of a cross-statconvoy aimed at generating news about the farm crisis. BOISE (UII) e Substantial publicity preceded the start of the convoy, but hopes that at least 50 tractors would join the three-dacaravan through southern Idaho faded when almost as many reporters and television cameras as farmers showed up for a rally starting the event. Organizers said they hoped more farmers and their tractors would join the event in other towns along the convoy route.

Larry Peterson, a grain farmer from Carey, said he was driving a weather tractor in "because its better than sitting at home." But he said most farmers are independent, and too proud to show their support. "Farmers are the most independent people," he said.

Harry Davis, who appeared in court in a wheelchair and wearing earphones to aid his hearing, went on trial Monday in Maricopa County Superior Court. Assistant Attorney General Gary Fadell said in opening arguments that Davis "certainly appears to be somewhat sympathetic " "The state cant ask you to put aside every bid of sympathy you'll initially have," Fadell told the jury. But he said Davis shot his wife, Geneva, 65. three times and should be convicted of murder. Defense attorney Richard Mesh said Davis shot his wife in self defense. He said Geneva Davis was an alcoholic "who passed herself off to the world as a kindly woman" but was a "Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde of the female gender" with her husband Mesh said the two had lived in a state of "aggravation" since their relationship began in 1976 and after rii 12"x1 2" d Amputee, 82, Goes on Trial INSULATION PANEL - The GARDINER, Mont. (AP) business manager of the Royal Teton Ranch says a proposed $30,000 fence to prevent bison from entering the ranch merely would replace an existing fence along the Yellowstone National Park boundary. And. Ed Francis said, the new fence also would keep the ranchs cattle out of the park. "The ranch's boundary with Yellowstone Park is already fenced and has been for many years," said Francis. He added that most other private property bordering the park also is fenced. Francis comments Monday came following criticism of the fencing plan-pu- t forth by the Fund for Anianimal promals, a New York-basetection group, and the Church Universal and Triumphant, which owns the Royal Teton Ranch. The church has planned to replace the fence for several years to keep its cattle from crossing into the park, Francis said. The current fence is dilapidated, he said, because of damage from migrating elk and bison. They want to build a wooden fence along 22 miles of the park's border. Critics claim the fence would prohibit other animals, such as deer and elk, from following their natural migration routes. "The fence we propose to install is not a game proof fence by any stretch of the imagination."
