VIOLATED THE REST LAW.
Manager Weightman of the Western
Union Carries Out Orders.

Thedetermination OF the officers to
enforce the Sunday closing law was
made clear Sunday when Manager
Weightman of the Western Union
was arrested for keeping open the
telegraph Office in violation of the
law. Mr.. Weightman was released
on his own recognizance and his
hearing will be had at time to be
set later by Prosecuting Attorney
Hanson, who is sick today.
Mr.. Weightman says that his in
structions are to keep open and he
will continue to do so until the mat
ter has been finally settled, John p.
Gray is defending Mr.. Weightman
and says that the case will be carried
to tho supreme court, If necessary,
to establish the right of the telegraph
company to operate. Mr. Gray con-
tends that even were the present law
constitutional it could not apply to
the Western Union in its conduct of
an interstate business,-ldaho Press.

That Athletic Organization.

An atheletic organization has been
organized in Malad and already a
number of boys have joined and
more have signified a willingness to
become members. No only are the
younger men of the town taking an
interest in the matter but several of
the leading business men will belong
to it and are ready to do everything
in their power to encourage it.
One of the most urgent needs of
Malad is some diversion that will
keep the young men away from the
saloons in the evening. 1t is impos-
sible to keep young men at home at
night. They must have some place
of amusement, and at present great
many of them seek that amusement
in the saloon With club room nice
ly lighted and heated the saloons
would have little attraction for them.
There they could go and spend their
evenings among congenial company.

Idaho Snake Farm.

A syndicate Of Pocatello men Is
investigating the feasibility Of uni
que industry in this part of the world
They are in the market for strip
Of land suitable for utilization as a
snake farm. This is not joke
Rocky hillside land is preferred. The
snakes will be raised for their oil
skins. Snake oil has a positive me-
dicinal value and 1t is used extensi-
vely by watchmakers in their trade.
Snake skins are used in the manu-
facture of purses and curios. Snakes
at one time were very plentiful In
this section of the state, especially
rattlers. They have largely disap-
peared, however. Along the Port
neuf river, especially where the can
yon narrows between the lava hills,
snakes are still abundant. 1t Is not
impossible that the Pocatello men
may secure piece of land near
here adapted to the culture of the
reptiles, and thus will be added to
southern Idaho another important
industry. --Pocatello Tribune.

Money Not Needed.

The Canadian Pacific Irrigation
Colonization Co., of Calgary. Alberta,
Canada, have just notified their Ida
no representative that they will now
make what are termed, Crop pay
ment" contracts, for the sale of their
lands to actual settlers.
Under this contract the purchaser
will simply be required to break at
least one-third of the land the first
year and plant it to crop the second
year, and give them the proceeds Of
the crop from this tract each year un-
til the payment is completed.
This leaves the settler two-thirds
of the land from which to make his
living.
The prices of the land near the
railroad are from $1,000 to $500
per acre for non-irrigated and $500
to $500 for irrigated land with wa
ter rights, which makes it by far the
cheapest lands offered on the CONT
nent.
Many farmers have cleared SIS
per acre the past season from fall
wheat. Good markets; plenty of good
water and. cheap coal near at hand.
Coolest weather this season, to Dec.
25th, has been degrees below zero.

Dubois for Vice President.

The Shoshone Journal advances
the conjecture that Dubois has the
vice president bee in his bonnet, and
cites strong support for him among
the fasteners who are concerned
about Mormonism and polygamy, and
other strong support from the friends
of silver everywhere. They also sug-
gest that the west would naturally
support a western man, and rightly
so.
Dubois has never been accused of
being Corporation man." and that
is almost equal to "Shibboleth" now
days.
Dubois has them all guessing.

CAREY ACT PROJECT
Tract of Land Near DOwney to be
Reclaimed.

The McCammon Banner says that
about twenty thousand acres of fine
agricultural land will be brought I'M
der irrigation south of McCammon.
The land lies near Downey. 1t is
simply great for farming and fruit
raising. A company has been form
ed for the purpose of bringing in
this tract under the Carey Act.
The Company Is composed of H.
o. Hardness, T. M. Edwards, Jos.
II. Boyington, l.. w. Johnson, Geo.
T.. Hyde, and f. G. Croker. Their
plans are to open up the land in
April, and it will be sold in 80 acre
farms, to be secured under the Carey
Act homestead law by drawing. The
price will be $3.50 per acre, and
after paying 1926 per acre cash
down, the settler will have ten years
time on the balance of payment. The
drawing will probably be held in
April next, and the bitches will be
constructed ready for use before the,
year is ended.
This Is a great opportunity for
home seekers, and hundreds Of them
will be there. This fine land will soon
sell for two and three times the cost
price. Many will be disappointed in
the drawing, but they will still be
fortunate because equally good bar
gains in decided land may still be
found around McCammon and Down
ey.

Dear Sir: | noticed the solution
of the dog-rabbit puzzle in this weeks
issue of your paper. / respectfully
send you the following:
If one and one-half dogs kill one
and one-half rabbits in one and one
half days, one dog will kill two
thirds as many rabbits as one and
one-half dogs will; in one and one
half days, two-thirds Of one and one
half rabbits is one rabbit in one and
one-half days; six dogs will kill six
times two-thirds rabbits which equals
four rabbits for six dogs in one day;
in seven days six dogs will kill seven
times four or twenty-eight rabbits.
