PLANT TREES.

Borrowing pertinent words from
the Pocatello Tribune, lit is time
to plant more trees" in this place.
If any town ever needed them,
Mountain Home does. They would
brighten the dreary stretch of the
dusty streets when the blazing sun
of July beats down on them. Trees
would make the little city one Of
the most beautiful in the State.
They would break the cold winds OF
winter and stretch out their leafy
branches as shields against the hot
blasts of summer. They would call
grass to life at their feet and do
away with the clouds Of dust, and
not least, would furnish very mate
rial aid in the case of fire, checking
the coarse of the flames at many a
street. By all means plant trees
now is the time.

TIME FOR ACTION.

A new school house is one Of the
imperative wants of Mountain
Home. The time is drawing near
when the election must be held for
trustees and AZ that election on the
first Monday in June a proposition
should be submitted to the qualified
voters Of this school district TO em.
power the trustees to issue bonds
not to exceed $4,000 for the pur-
pose Of raising fund with which to
erect building in Mountain Home
sufficiently large to answer educa-
tional purposes for many years TO
come. The building should be OF
brick, two stories high and contain
at least eight large rooms. Extrav-
agance should be avoided, of course,
in the erection of such an edifice,
but at the same time liberal views
should prevail. Such a building
would not be for the accommoda-
ton Of the present generation only
but for those to follow us, who will
justly bear their portion Of the bur.
den, provided such desire herein
expressed should be carried out.
The town is steadily advancing, the
population increasing and the
present accommodations are entire
ly inadequate for the daily attend,
ance of pupils.
Mr.. Jones, general manager oil
the Irrigation and Land Company
volunteers TO donate the remainder
of the block upon which stands the
school house, in the event that it is
decided to build creditable edifice
which would give school grounds
comprising one whole block.
Let our people confer with tn,
trustees upon this important subjecr
and induce him to start the bal
rolling. Time is short.
