GRADUATION EXERCISES.

Notwithstanding tho unpleasant dust
storm which prevailed Friday afternoon.
tho graduating exercises OF the First 9th
Grade class Of 1906 was well attandod.
A manifestation Of unusual interest was
evident in the fact that before tho ap-
appointed hour tho friends and patrons
were assembled and in waiting. there be-
ing no interruptions after the exercises
began.
Tho class role was as follows:-
Joe Goblin. Gerald Linn. George Jones.
Mira Moore. Everest Kolsay. Bon Wiley.
Ralph Hufford. Joseph Lacy and VIM.
Taylor.
As the boys filed into the assembly
room from the superintenden Office they
were met by the girls Of the Second 9th
Grade class. who sang the Graduation
song.
The opening address was delivered by
Joe Goblin. the youngest and smallest
member, and response made to the same
by Blaneh Ransdell Of Junior class.
That each member Of the class acquit-
ted himself credltably. beyond the expee-
tations of both friends and teachers. was
evident in the unusual interest and en-
thusiasm manifested in the reading of
each paper.
Each effort was deserving of special
mention, did space admit. Suffice to say
that by their maiden effort they have al
ready distinguished themselves as high
school students.

by Miss v Kearney, but in her absence
from the graduation exercises was read

The attitude OF the American Beet
Sugar Co. toward the beet grower, has
always beCn that of one who desired to
be on the friendliest footing, possible;
TO do evJ rything within reason TO pro-
mote this feeling: to work for the in
terest OF the grower as well us them
selves: in fact, we can sea nothing in
the past or present attitude of this
company to merit any particular crit
icism. They have granted everything
asked bv the grower, II within the
bound OF reason. As evidence to the
fact miglt be cited the granting OF
fiat rate OF $5 per ton n year ago, and
this year granting the growers de-
mand OF so cents per ton for siloing.

things. and the other factories merely

PERRNE AND THE CAPITALISTS
TURN THEIR EYES THIS WAY.

The following extract taken from the Deseret News
gives the forecast of of the good things that
ing our way
"W, r. Jack has taken a ninety day option eight
marble and onyx claims owned by John Farchid and
Gade Roberts, east of Basin settlement The consideration
0OO Mr. Jack is securing this property for syn
dicate with view to establishing extensive marble
onyx works, and other manufactures. Mr. Herman L
Harensten of Constantine Michigan is expected early
in June make selection of quarres and sites for some
large factories which it is thought will either be located
in Basin Willow Creek IA miles north of Oakley The
Basin properties contain 100 of fine quality and
large variety of coored marble and onyx be in
the west
Mr.. l. b. Perrine of Blue Lakes who has done much
for the development of southern Idaho is the moving
cause in this enterprise.
That the factories mentioned above will built is be-
yond the question of doubt That these factories will
require rail facilities for transportation is evden that the
electric dummy will be built practically settled
That part of the county the very verge of
of great prosperity is known by few and will soon be
realized by all Whoop it up whoop it up, whoop it up:

Just Give us a Tip.

The publisher of the average
newspaper is generally not only
willing but glad to publish any
thing in the shape of news that
he can get hold of, and the more
he gets the better it suits him
and his patrons. Yet some peo-
pie think they're sighted because
they do not come under his OBJ
servation, but which he would
just as cheerfully publish wheth-
er it concerned friend or enemy,
did he only know it. The moral
of the above is, when you know
anything that will make your
home paper more newsy and
readable just give US a tip and
see how quick we will jump for
it.-Ex.

MUST OBEY
SPRAYING LAW.

State Horticultural Inspector
A. F. Hit has been requested by
the state board to enforce the
spraying law to the letter. He
has sent out notices to people
who have trees that need spray
ing, after having made a person
al inspection, These notices re-
quire the owners to spray their
trees without delay. If the in
struction is not followed the
owner will have to answer in
court.
The first case was tried yester-
day in the county court John
Johnston was the defendent. He
was found guilty of not comply
ing with the spraying law, was
fined $25 and mustpay the costs.
1t is understand that another
case will be brought tomorrow
Mr.. HIT will play no favorites
and will see that the law is en-
forced.-Capital News.

ind that great many are just
where they were last year at
this time. Now if these parties
are made an example of don't
blame the inspector. If the fruit
growers of Dist. No. 10, will
unite in fighting the fruit pests
good will result. The first
spraying for the Goblin moth
should be done Just after the
petal of the blossom has fallen
and the blossom has a brownish
appearance; care should be taken
to fill the calyx or blossom end OF
the apple or pear before the same
closes. When to spray is of just
as much Importance as how to
spray or what to spray with.
Remember that thoroughness
will determine results. | shall re-
