Many Go to Boise.

The big three day celebration
at the capital city has drawn a
a number of our people that
way this week and in conse.s
quence the prospect is for a
rather quiet Fourth of July here.
Mountain Home did not feel
equal to financing a celebration
here this year, but the next
time the Fourth comes along,
we will be up in front and the
neighboring towns will be in-
vited to come and see how an
affair Of that sort should be
conducted. Meanwhile, prep
arations are going on for a
rousing good time during fair
week and, if time and money
can do the work, Mountain
Home will have a fair that will
eclipse all previous attempts
along that line.

In MEMORIAM.

Mary Sophia Jolley was born
in Ohio February 12, 1850, and
in that state and Illinois she
spent the early part of her
childhood. At the age of six
she, with her parents, moved to
Kansas, where she lived until
the death Of her mother in 1864,
when she again became a resi-
dent Of Ohio. On August 4,
1867, she became the wife of
Seth Heath and after that time
she lived with him at Raoli, Kas.,
until 1883, when they came to
Idaho to make their home.
During all that time she was
very active in chuach and edu-
cational work, but about twelve
years ago she was injured by
being thrown from a sleigh and
after that time she gradually
failed in health and became
more and more a care to her
children. Seeming to feel this
fact keenly, she was for a long
time impatient for the end of
her life, which finally came on
the 29th day of June, 1908,
while she was at the home of
her daughter, Mrs. Claude
Yeats, in this city. She leaves
to mourn her loss a husband,
two daughters and a large num-
ber of friends and church asso-
ciates.

SSiito w p4OAuIC.
To anyone familiar with the
conditions it will readily be seen
that the figures on the amount
of production have been held to
the minimum, while the cost of
production is figured at the
maximum. It isa fact that the
average will be a great deal
more net profit per acre than
the above figures will prove,
but in order to be very conserv-
ative and not over estimate, all
benefit of the doubt is given.
The real facts in the case are
that under average conditions
land in this section which sells
for seventy-fve dollars per acre
will net a return of twenty-five
per cent on a two hundred and
fifty dollar valuation. = Idaho

SNAKE RIVER LAND VALUES.
Values Based on What the Land
Will Produce.

The value of the Upper Snake
river farm land affords an al
ways fruitful topic of conver-
sation. It has been argued that
land values in this vicinity are
too high. The contrary, how
ever is the case. 1t is a well
known fact that irrigated lands
in the widely advertised Sec
tions sell for from two hundred
and fifty to four hundred dol
lars per acre. 1t is a well-known
fact also to the informed that
this high priced land will not
produce any better, if SO well, as
the land in this section. There
is every reason why this is true.
Land values should be based on
on what they will produce. 1t
is an easily proven fact that
seventy-fve dollar land in this
valley will yield a net return Of
ten per cent on a two hundred
and fifty dollar valuation.
Three hundred and sixty
pounds of clover seed to the
acre is a low. estimate, below
the average. Sell this seed at
thirteen cents perpound, which
is also a low estimate, and it
would yield a gross return Of
forty-six dollars and eighty
cents per acre. Allowing twen-
ty-one dollars and eighty cents
to produce this crop will leave
a net return of twenty-five dol
lars per acre, or ten per cent on
a two hundred and fifty dollar
valuation.

HAMMETT DENIES HE
ABANDONED FERRY
Says Reported Intention Of King
Hill Company to Boom New
.-~ Town Was Ill-Advised.

Ben H. Hammett, the pro-
moter of the King Hill Land
and Irrigation company and OF
the Glenns Ferry Development
company has denied the story
published in the Republican of
Wednesday that his company
contemplated the booming of a
new town at King Hill station
and asserts that the original
plans to make a thriving town
out of Glenns Ferry will be
fully carried out. The report
given in this paper was obtained
from an officer Of the company
direct and was confirmed by a
number of Glenns Ferry people
who claimed to have been told
the same story by Mr.. Ham,
NETT himself, hence the only
logical conclusion at the pres
ent time is that the Hammett
interests have changed their
minds which they had a per-
feet right to do. We are glad
to learn that the Ferry is not
to be left out in the cold entire
ly and hope that the promised
boom will soon be Forthcoming.

Rubbing Oil

A mild soothing, but very penetrat-
ing liniment-good for sprains, lame

blistering. We sell lots of liniments
