Progress on Big Canal

T. r. Jones just returned from trip
down the line Of the big canal leading
through the Carey Lands, and says the
farmers are irrigating and the crops are
looking we'll. The canal has been cut
through many spurs Of the lava beds,
and when the water reached such places
it poured into seams and went roaring
away into subterranean depths, but
teams aud scrapers and men with shovels
brought IN dirt to puddle" such places.
The mud was allowed to run into the
seams until they we're closed. In one
case it took week to close the seam,
but now it shows no sign Of leak. On
the Twin Falls canal they had two miles
Of this formation and it took ten days to
get the water through that two mile sec
tion, but it is tight as a barrel now.
/ Mr.. Jones says the American Falls
Canal and Power company have about
200 men on the payroll, and want more
help. They are pushing work on the big
fill northwest Of Danilson Springs, at the
camp called "Windy Point" and are busy
all along the line below there.

Advertising

The following clipping explains itself
and is taken from merchants trade
paper;
Let us take any country town for an
illustration. We will say it has popu
lation Of 1000; it is county seat and
surrounding it are 1900 persons who
should naturally trade at the stores in
this town. A visit to the freight house
reveals the fact that Chicago concerns
are shipping immense amounts of mer-
chandise to individuals in the town and
surrounding territory. The dealers have
enough trade to keep them going, it is
true, but the bulk Of the goods are sold
by the mail order houses. There is
newspaper published in this town.; it is
read by nearly every one in the country
1t is loyal to local interests and urges
merchants to advertise, to FIGHT, but
in spite of all warnings they persist in
letting the cream of the business go away
from home. Now the right thing to do is
to WAKE UP and FIGHT The mail
order concerns fight by mail by adver-
tising and in practically no other way.
You can do the same. Use your local
paper first; don't appeal to patriotism,
local pride, or good fellowship. Talk
DOLLARS and CENTS that's what
the people send away for: they imagine
they can secure better goods for less
money than you can sell them for. Get
this idea out of their heads You have
better goods than any mail order house
on earth. To prove this ssnd for some Of
the cheap stuff they offer. as bait, that
shows hog You stand on QUALITY.
Now, about price, figure the freight as
added to what the local customer buys.
This runs the price up. Figure on neces-
sary exchanges in sizes Of clothing, etc.
Postage also counts up. Figure Il
all in. then put some OF those mail order
bargains on exhibition; put them in
your window anywhere that people can
sec them easily. Put the name OF the
concern they were bought from, the price
they figure at, and alongside Of these
things place articles from your OWN
stock, at your price. Then circularize
the country, use newspaper space and
tell the people you are there TO SHOW
THEM. Talk is cheap, but facts are
facts, and II you go after the people ~
you should,,the mail order octopus will
soon have to retire to the tall grass.
