Encouraging support.

The subscription to the Capital
Stock of the Weiser Fruit Land and
Investment Company, is on the In
crease and will soon reach one hun
bred names. This is the most bene-
fetal enterprise that has ever been
presented to our people and should
be endorsed by every citizen Of the
town by subscription to stock.
The building of industrial enter
prises will build up the country and
the town, and regular pay days will
be established and that is what few
towns in southern Idaho have. Let
every body come forward and add
their name, and we will soon have
that support and solidity that makes
it an easy matter to bring in outside
money.
We want the benefits this Com
pany will bring and every body will
receive their share. 1t is good
thing. 1t will make Weiser grow.

An $4,000 Structure in West End.
TRUSTEES have TAKEN STEPS
School District Election will be Called at
Once to Authorize Bonds.

The board of trustees of Weiser
school district held an important
meeting last Monday evening and de-
cided that it was necessary to call a
district election on the question of
issuing $13, 500 bonds for the pur-
pose of taking up s., 500 bonds now
due and an additional $4,000 to
erect an additional brick school house
to meet the growing needs of the dis
trict and give facilities to care for
the rapidly increasing school popula-
ton which Is turning the curve to
inter- the home stretch towards a
thousand. The new building will be
two stories and contain four rooms,
designed for the adding of two addi-
tional rooms later on, as in the case
of the East End building. The gen
eral plan upon which the board is
moving, is to locate the new build
ing somewhere in the vicinity
of the vaporator, and then in
the course of eight or ten years,
or whenever necessary, larger cen
trail school house with all modern i'm
'provements can be erected half way
between, giving a wise and equitable
distribution Of the buildings over the
city.
The present contemplated building
will be heated by steam, effectine,a
. great saving in fuel.
