 It is all true, as The Courant says. We may assert that the proposed scheme is not only impracticable, but impossible. but how do we know?

SECOND LARGEST DAM IN
WORLD Is UNDER WAY

L. H. Gerry, jr., manager of the
Helena Power Transmission company
has announced that material has been
ordered for the construction of the
second largest dam in the world
says a Helena dispatch. This will be
known as the third dam on the Mis-
souri, river, thirty miles from Helena,
When completed. it will not only irrl-
gate thousands of acres of land in
this section, but will furnish power
for plants in Helena, Butte and Ana
conda. BY July more than 500 men
will be employed on the construction
work.
The immensity Of the undertaking
is seen by the fact that 125,0OO bar
rels of cement will be used. Loaded
on cars, this would compose a train
nine miles long. One thousand tons
of steel will also be used. The pro-
ject is backed by Former Governor
Samuel r. Hauser and New York cap
itallsts.

The trouble was always severe and

PHONE RATES RAISED.
Bell Company Advances All Prices at
Boise City.

Telephone rates have been raised
throughout the city by the Rocky
Mountain Bell Telephone company on
the grounds that the system in this
district is not much more than max
ing expenses, says the Boise Capital
News.
The raise has been effective since
the latter part of March and patrons
whose contracts for the year expired
after that date have been required to
sign new contracts at the advanced
rate of so cents.
The Independent Telephone people
it is authoritatively stated, were ap-
preached about that time to make a
similar raise in accordance with the
raise that was made by the Bell Tele-
phone, but this proposition was turn
ed down by them, one of the officers
stating that they were making enough
under the present rates and did not
think the people would stand for a
raise on account of the financial de-
preston that had. recently swept over
the country.
Learning today that the rates are
being raised, a representative of the
Capital News interviewed Manager
Jones of the Bell Telephone company
relative to the present rates.
Mr.. Jones stated that the raise has
been in effect since the last of
March, the dollar hone" for four
party line phone being done away
with and the rate raised to $3.50 per
month, or SIS per year under the new
contracts. The two party lines are
raised accordingly, the new contracts
calling for 81 per month or $24 per
year, while the single or individual
line phones are raised to $3.50 per
month. or $40 per year.

0. R. & \. STARTS TEN-YEAR BATTLE
FOR BETTER FARMING METHODS

I campaign for next fall. It will i'm
prove its program for demonstration
trains, carrying lecturers and equip
ment for showing the farmers the
most successful methods of diversi-
fled farming.
Time for Questions.
In the recent demonstrations the
train was permitted to stop only one
hour at each point. Next fall the
trains will make two-hour stops at
each point. and allow time for ques-
tions and discussions by the assembled
farmers. The hearty cooperation Of
the professors from the oregon Agri-
cultural college has been assured and
the company will not spare money nor
effort to accomplish a complete re-
versal of present day farm methods
in the inland empire. 1t is believed
that Oregon cannot only be made to
maintain its prominence as a wheat
producing empire, but it can make a
great success of diversified farming.
Wheat farming on a large scale in
eastern Oregon, while very successful.
has had its serious drawbacks The
farms are so large and the country so
sparsely populated that the problem
Of securing harvest hands has been
hard one. The new era is expected
to usher in a change that will i'm
prove conditions.
When 1t is demonstrated that every
acre Of a 500-acre farm can be used
every year, and its productive capac-
ity more than doubled, the farmer
will find that he has all he can do to
farm one-half of that acreage. The
lands will rise in value and he will
sell off lands for smaller farms, and
increase the number of farmers in
the country. The result will be a vast
ly greater aggregate crop product.
There will be more help in harvest
time because the farmers will see
them going about as is done in the
middle west farming regions, helping
each other with teams and men to
garner the crops.
Addressed 5000 Farmers.
On the trip made by the o. r. & N.
demonstration train IS stops were
made, and it is estimated that the
lecturers were heard by more than
1000 actual farmers, not counting wo-
men and children. At many places
the schools were dismissed and the
children were brought by their teach
ers to hear the lectures. At Weston |
the normal school attended in a body |
At every point crowds Of farmers |
were waiting the arrival of the train.
They gave earnest attention to the |
lecturers and showed every evidence |
OF being deeply interested in the doc
trines advocated. There was no dis
position shown to discredit the i'm
portance Of the movement, but on the
contrary the attitude of the farmers
Is one Of cooperation in any plan that
will improve their farms, populate and
better their state.

PECULIAR ACCIDENT TO r. CLIFF.

on the ball grounds at Millers,
whereby r. Clifford suffered broken
leg. The Millers team was out for
practice and Clifford having batted
the ball was making a run to first,
and in sliding came in contact with
the first baseman's knee. The man
dropped to the ground and was evil
IDENTIFY in great pain. The first base
man assisted him to his feet, but 1t
was impossible for him to put the
injured member to the ground. A
hasty examination was made and the
young man was brought to Tonopah
and taken to the Miners hospital,
where DR.. Mapes made an examina-
ton and found that the leg was
broken. The fracture was set and
Clifford was resting comfortably last
night, though it is not probable that
he will play ball any more this sea-
son.
