WARNING TO SETTLERS

October 27, 909.
A grave misapprehension has aris-
en- regarding the character OF lands
near the Minidoka project, Cassia
county, Idaho, which were recently
restored to entry by the Secretary Of
the Interior.
The lands were restored because
no plans are being made to 1rrigate
this area. Any entry made upon the
supposition that these lands would
be under what is known as the
fourth lift of the Minidoka project
is founded on an absolute misunder-
standing, because construction OF the
fourth lift has been definitely aban-
doned.
Those who have made homestead
entry on the area restored must live
upon the land, cultivate and improve
it in accordance with the terms of
the homestead law and have no rea-
sonable ground to anticipate that wa
ter will ever be furnished for irri-
cation.
Homestead entrymen who took
these lands in the hope that the ope-
rations Of the Reclamation Service
will enable them to comply with the
homestead law are doing soon an
entirely unfounded supposition, and
they must necessarily perfect their
entries without the assistance of any
water supply from the Minidoka pro-
ject.

ent at the corner stone laying cere-
monies yesterday afternoon at that
place The weather was ideal for the
occasion.

ings of the past four years. In his re-
marks. in German, the Rev. Feeger

The principal address was by Rev.
Joseph Beck. pastor of the Trinity
Lutheran church. who spoke in Eng
lish. He referred to the need OF sucn
home and the interest the Lutherans
have taken in it. He stated that the
corner stone of any institution, cs-
pecially one of religious nature, was
to be compared with the purpose of the
coming of Christ. He referred to the
satisfaction the donors of the fund
with which to erect the home should
feel.
The institution has proved almost
invaluable in the past in that it has
taken in Lutheran orphans and has
educated and trained them for the
worlds responsibilities.
In speaking of the cost of the build
ing, he declared that $4,000 was in
the treasury now while $4,000 more
could be easily raised. There will be
practically no debt when the institl-
ton is finished this fall. The home
will be most modern in every respect
and will be able to accommodate q
large number of orphans.
Rev. Gahre, superintendent of the
home, and several others made short
talks. A number of musical numbers
were rendered in very pleasing man.

ton of the premises was made by

ton.
