Official Route of Epworth
Leapuers to Denver.

Official announcement is made
by the State Chairman of Trans
portation that for the 9TH Inter
national Epworth League Con-
ference TO be held at Denver
July 9Th to 9th, the Fort Worth
Il Denver City Railway (''The
Denver Road') has been select
ed as the 'Otficial Route from
Texas and that in connection
with that line arrangements
have been perfected for Special
Service leaving Fort Worth at
9:55 A. NJ. July 4th, the schedule
being such as to put Delegates
and friends in Denver early the
following afternoon.
In addition to the always up
to-date regular service avail lab BILE
via that route, which includes
Palace Sleepers and Cafe Cars,
the special arrangements also
provide for operation of first
class Pullman Tourist SleeperS,
through, in which entirely salts
factory sleeping accommoda-
tons will be available at but
one half the usual expense. In
other words, upon basis OF
two persons 10 a double berth,
individual expenses for through
Sleeping Car Accommodations
need not exceed 81 % from Fort
Worth to Denver.
AS the passage rate will be
but one fare plus $500 for the
round trip and tickets will be
good for stop-overs, also good
for 60 days for return, and at an
unusually low rate side trips
will be vailable from Denver
to the numerous adjacent re-
sorts and points of attraction in
and along the mountains, it is
anticipated that Texas Leaguers
will, as they most undoubtedly
should, be on hand in large
numbers.
AS a strong effort is to be
made toward securing the next
International Conference for
Texas, many Pastors and other
Church workers will head dele.
cations from their respective
charges and communities in the
interest of accomplishing the
end referred to: hence it is a
foregone conclusion that Grand
Old Texas will be strongly and
enthusiastically represented and
that, among the many thousands
who will be present from every
section of the country, Texas
and its claims will be made
manifest and become justified
through its delegations.

1t has been raining here today
and looks as il il would continue for
some time. purchased a tent l2xl4
and will live in that until | build
nv house We will burn sage
brush until the railroad gets here in
July. But just think OF town in
the heart of 100000 acres OF the
finest land in the world all to be
covered by water and with the great
Shoshone Falls next to the Niagara)
within seven miles of the town and
five millionaires backing the town
up with every dollar of their fortune.
Keep your eye on Twin Falls. But
there is another side TO this picture.
It takes men OF. means to buy this
land and men OF some experiences in
irrigation to win in farming it.
The land costs the settler soc per
acre to the state, 2Sc payable on
day of entry. SIS per acre for
water, So per acre payable on day
of entry, balance at 81 per acre per
year except last year. which is 81.
Now the settler must pay six per
cent interest on all deferred pay
ments. That means Sl.52 per acre
interest alone. Now comes taxes
and soc per acre for use of water
until the ownership of the canal
passes into the hands Of the settler.
which is not done until all land is
fully paid for. Now the land board
has held that residence must be
maintained on the land. the same as
is required on homesteads under
government law. except the settler
may patent his land when he has
one-sighth under cultivation, but
the water company has lien on the
land for all deferred payments of
water right, which prevents the
farmer ever mortgaging the land
until the water rights are fully paid
and discharged.
Now you can see for yourself you
pay for all you get and it is no
place for a poor man to get a home
unless he pays for it and is very
careful and industrious and has at
least $1,000 to start on.
OF course IT is like all countries.
a man with nothing may succeed
and the man with thousands may
fail. But it is going to be a great
town for merchants, doctors, lawyers,
and all professions for the simple
reason that there are so many peo-
pie. say family on every eighty

Crop Prospects

The showers which have fallen
throughout the reservation country
during the last two weeks are worth
thousand, of dollars to the farmers
of this section. Never have the
prospects been better for An enor-
nous yield of grain of all kinds than
they are at present. Spring seeding
is farther advanced than it has been
for years at this season, and if the
weather conditions continue favor
able an unusually large acreage will
be planted to spring grain and it is
safe to say that one half the crop
will be in the ground by April l.
For the past month farmers have
been rushing their spring work early
and late. February's heavy freezing
weather, which loosened the soil to
an unusual depth, followed by the
mild weather of the past four weeks,
has placed the soil in fine condition,
and there is no doubt but what the
yield will be above the average.
The indications are that a large
acreage will be sown to fax. Land
values have steadily advanced
throughout this section during the
past two year,. and with the pros
poets of a railroad in the near future
many will have made comfortable
fortunes of of the raise in Nezperce
prairie farms.
