PROTECT COAL CHUTES.
Railroad Company Installing Fire
HydrantS This Week.

A crew Of carpenters and pipe-fitters
have been putting system of fire pro-
lection in the coal chutes. this week
The blaze of month ago, when only
the reckless energy of two of the men
saved the structure from destruction
during high wind that blew an engine
spark on to the roof and famed it into
a blaze, is believed to have brought the
officials to the point of ordering this
necessary protection.
ltis understood that new chutes are
to be built here at a not very far dis
tant day. The new ones will be much
higher, so that the coal can be brought
in on dump cars. and dumped into pock-
cts that are still high enough to empty
into the tenders by the force of gravity.
50 that the coal need not be touched by
hand. As it now is, all the coal is hand
shoveled.

There Isn' { buster place snywher

The company has been running the

Is expected that the first Of the new
crop viii be ready for the market about
the middle Of September, and no orders
are being tsbeH for delivery prior To
that time. But By that date, they viii
be ready for all comers, in practically
any quantity that they may wish.
A recent letter from General Funs-
ton. the Kansas warrior who Is now
pretty near the head Of the United
Stste@army. says that he spilled 4 few
drops Of the tonic on the stone pave

NATIONAL WOOL WAREHOUSE.

Great Project.

Fred W. Gooding, president Of the
National Wool Growers Association.
left Monday for Cheyenne, where he
VIII meet the executive board Of the
Association to 90 over the plans for a
great wool warehouse in Chicago.
This wool warehouse idea is believed
to be the biggest thing for the western
producer, that has been brought for
ward in years 1t will mean the
building of great warehouses in Chicago,
to store 100. 900, 900 pounds of wool, or
more than one-third the total crop of
the United States It viii be sheep
mems enterprise, with heavy bank back
ing to give it stability The wool viii
all be consigned to this warehouse, and
the old practice of the buyers beating
down the individual seller will be done
away with. The wool will be ample
security for a good advance of money,
it being the very best Of collateral, and
the seller can get money on his crop
without being at the mercy of the buyer.
1t will also bring the wool market closer
to the west, where wool is produced,
and this will be distinct help.

Lincoln County Farms
Assessed Much Higher
This Season.
Farm Lands Have Increased 100
Per Cent in Many Cases..
New Land Patented.

J. W Wheeler. sounty assessor, re-
ports a considerable gain in the assess
ment roll for Lincoln county this year.
There has been some land patented and
50 brought under the head of taxable
property. but the principal gain has
been in the raising Of the price Of farm
property. This raise, he estimates,
will be from Is to 20 per cent. taking
the whole county over. It Is a con-
siderable advance, though not believed
70 be excessive Farm lands have IL
creased very greatly in value IN the
past year or two. Farms that two
years ago could have been bought for
S25 TO so an acre, are now held st
double that price, or even higher, and
there are some transfers al these high
figures. It was with these facts IN
view that the assessment was raised.
Other counties have made even great
er raises in assessment. II is reported
from Bear Lake county, that a rate Of
one-half the actual selling OF holding
price Is being maintained. A farm that
sells for 800 an acre, Is assessed at so
While the law seems 70 contemplate
the assessing AT the real cash value. 1t,
Of course, does not say whether It is 70
be q forced sale without warning. which
would bring far lower prices than
sale after long and careful arrange
ment- In no place Is the law absolutely
carried out 50 as to take advantage Of
private deals on price
What the board ofequalization willdo
in the matter Of raising the assess
ments on railroads and other inter state
corporations, Is gong TO be an inter
esting question Il could hardly be ex-
pected that they VIII raise the rates as
some of the farm assessmers have been
raised. Idaho Is on the boom right now,
and farm lands are increasing IN price
with extraordinary rapidity, 50 that
raise In assessment is strictly just Cor
poration interests, however. have not
increased in quite the same brOpor-
ton: and to equalize these tax rates IS

shone. He returned Wednesday night
well pleased with the outfit. 1t cost

and will take charge of the enterprise.
He believes there is a fine field here
for laundry, and the general interest

NEW HOSPITAL BUILDING.
DR.. Dill Needs More Room for His
Many Patients.

Dr. c. W. Dill has begun excavating
the cellar for a new hospital on the
north side of the track fronting Rail
street, little east of McMahon's store.
The new building is to be go 30 feet,
one story and basement, the whole to
be built of stone The demands on the
doctors hospital space are greater than
the old building on Rail street can ac-
commodate, and a new builing becomes
a necessity. The fame of the Dill hos
pital has spread beyond the confines of
Lincoln county and many patients come
from remots points. Every enterprise
that can be built up in Shoshone adds
that much to the business and popula-
ton of the city. And the enlarging of
a home institution to meet the demands
of a growing business, or an enlarging
patronage of a professional calling that
had its start here in Shoshone, speaks
we'll for the institution and the abilities
of the man whose skill and energy has
built it up and made it to prosper.

Mr.. Lickley is a member of the school

l4OO-Acre Buckeye Farm
Near Hagerman to
New Owners.
Foreign Corporation Gives Way to
Local Men, Who Will Improve
the Valuable Property.

The biggest land deal made in Lin

is not the biggest in the history of the
county, was closed last week, when w.
L. Coltharp and C. ~ Dilatush Of Hag-
erman bought the big Buckeye ranch
near Hagerman.
The property consists Of about 400
acres of land just south of Hagerman.
in the heart of the beautiful valley. 1t
has been held by the Idaho Mining and
Land Trust Company, Kentucky cor
poration. Judge J A. Runyon, of Ohio.
came out here to close up the deal.
TIE price is not given to the public.
It is the intention of the new owners
to improve the place, which has had
scant care in past years. Only about
$50 acres is under cultivation this sea-
son, and there is water ol about half
of the place. The new men will com
plete the irrigation of the whole 400
acres. or as much of it as can be reach
ed, which will be practically all of it.
They intend to have it all carefully sur
veyed, and lay it off in small units,
which will later be offered for sale.
As the Hagerman section Of the Snake
river valley is one of the best fruit grow
ing sections of Idaho, it is expected
that fruit will be made the principal
crop on this fine farm. This should run
Up the value per acre to some very high
figures.
