NEW GROUNDS
County Fair Association at
Caldwell purchases 40
Acres.

Since our last issue the Directors OF
the Canyon County Fair Association
have sold the old fair grounds for the
sum of $4,000 in cash d. II. Andrews
and others were the purchasers. This
Is satisfactory price ior the twenty acres
of land. The Directors have bought 40
acres Of H. d. Blatchley at the head OF
Arthur Street, paying $l25 for the same.
Work will begin today improving the
grounds and to get ready for the October
exhibition. There will be laid out u bali
mile track.
There will be plenty of room on the
ground for farmers to bring their teams
and camp, ii they so desire during the
estire Fair
An exposition halt l50xT50 feet built
in the form Of cross will at once be
erected. This will give much larger
space for exhibits than has heretofore
been available. and we predict that ev-
cry foot OF it will be needed. A grand
stand 200 feet in length will be con-
structed. This makes building capable
of accommodating 33 per cent more than
the old one. Sixty box stalls for horses
and other stock are to he put up ior this
season. Barns for show stock will also
constructed. This has been needed for
years past, and the Association is now
in position to meet this want.
A poultry building Isxl00 feet will be
one OF the features 1t will be remem-
bere,l that last year there was not near
enough room for the splendid birds put
ON exhibition. We expect to sec larger
bnldiug filed this ial.
Another splendid feature OF the inn
provements will he rest rooms for visi
tors where ladies aud children can be
made comfortable 1t is also purposed
to buikl u aeat cottage to be occupied
by care iaker who will look after the
grounds at all times.
We understand that the entire forty
acres will be seeded down to blue grass
and white clover, and shades trees plant
ed throughout the grounds, thus making
an elegant park where the city can be
benefited at other times besides during
the week of the fair.
The street ear line will be extenrle,
some 800 feet So rs to farnish chea /
transportation 10 and from the city
From now until the tair is held will b'
Il busy time on these grounds. Every
thing has to be done, but it win he com
pleted in time to hold the greatest lai
ever conducted in Canyon County, Th'
directors have taken th,. J,,tn'r steps L
make the fair permaneli caldwell In
stitution, and We can well believe tha
our people will be proul OF assisting il
making this the grandest annual exposi
tion held in the state Of Idaho. Cald
well is taking 40 backward steps thes
days. Just keep up with the procession

Great Interest Manifest

To lie Editor OF The Times:

To the Editor of The Times:
The suggestion in the columns of
The Sunday Times that your readers
submit their ideas and theories
about the probable whereabouts of
little Horace Marvin, of Dover, Del,
and the probable manner of his dis
appearance must appeal to every
one as eminently fitting and sensi-
bic. Not only will these theories
be interesting, but new light may be
shed on what promises to be one of
the greatest cases of child disap-
pearance in the history of the
world.
New Argument Needed.
It Is evident that the authorities and
the bereaved relatives now conducting
the search would be helped to an IN
estlmable extent If even one of your
readers should suggest a new line Of
argument. Il new method of investisa-
tion that would give them some hitherto
unexpiored channel of inquiry.
Another tack might well be followed
with benehcent results. It would be the
best thing imaginable if the people
would look through their own sections
of the city. IF each OF your readers did
this conscientiously. It would be de-
veloped whether or not tla boy was in
