First Meeting 20 Years.

Mrs d. w. Fitzwater was pleasant
ly surprised last week in a rather un-
usual way. Her brother. Geo. Dus-
enbery of West Chester, Iowa, whom
she had not seen for over twenty
years wrote her from Seattle that he
would drop off in Mountain Home
and omitted signing his name. When
he came, the surprise can only be
imagined when he was recognized
by Mrs. Fitzwater. He was accom-
panied by a Mr. Owen who enjoyed
a splendid visit with him in the dity.

over 1900 men and many teams
are employed in the construction
work in progress in the Twin Falls
country, 700 men being employed on
the Twin Falls extension, working
day and night, 800 laborers and
teams being engaged with the con-
struction work ,on the Salmon river
project and about 200 men being at
work on the Oakley project and still
more men being wanted for the e.
normous amount of construction
work in progress and proposed for
the near future, the number of men
at present employed being limited
only by the numder available for con-

Perrine Tells of Activities
Responsibility for the above state
ment rests upon the shoulders of T.
B. Perrine, the Twin Falls booster,
who is in the city today TO confere
with his associate, s. H. Hays, and
who is fairly bubbling over With rail-
road news and activity in the south
east, according to the Statesman.
CONSUMPTION is in progress on the
extension of the Idaho Southern from
Gooding to Miner, which will be in
operation by January L." declared
MIR. Perrine 1.-The line from Milner
to Oakley is also in course Of con
struction and will be in operation in
go days. We are rushing the road
on account of the fact that mater
ial for the big reservoir dam Of the
Oakley project will be required in
a short time. 1t certainly did me
good to see the construction camps
along the road east of Jerome as I
came through to Boise. We are
building the railroad through the land
of Sen. Dubois, who is wen pleased
with that country. Senator Petit
CREWS son is also there proving up

Vegetables at $3.50 Feet

This Office received a box the first
of the week neatly packed with fine
assortment of vegetables from VIM.
A. Nixon, of Rocky Bar. Many who
do not realize the fact that the res
idents of the upper country are in
terested in farming and gardening as
well as mining would be surprised
to know that vegetables as large and
fine as are grown anywhere are pro-
duced at this high altitude. The box
contained carrots, radishes onions,
and potatoes and they were all better
than any we have seen before this
season

Idaho weekly newspaper which, as
its name indicates is frisky, full of
life and willing to buck or even kick

increasing its circulation and at the
same time affording some eligible
young woman an opportunity to see
the Alaska Yukon Pacific exposition

expense.
According to the article in the
Maverick. announcing the result. the
voting must have been fast and fur
ious, indicating an increased circula-
tion and also the interest that the
contest aroused. In all total of
264,140 votes were cast of which

sUPPORT OF HOME PAPER

An appreciative view of the home
newspaper is given in the Office
Outfiter of Chicago, from which we
make the following extracts.
Many a good town isn't worth a
cent because the local newspaper Is
neglected Many a good merchan-
dising center is dead because the
men in business treat the editor Of
the newspaper as an object Of chari-
ty This is wrong The local paper
is the greatest thing in the communi-
ty. II should be supported. 1t
should be read and patronized. The
merchants who think they are clever
land smart when they slip one over
on the local paper make big mis-
take. Every dollar you take away
from the local newspaper in schemes
and knocks hurts the town It
hurts business, and most of all, it
hurts the merchants who indulge
in it..
Whatever else you merchants do,
patronize your home paper Don't
tell me that it has a small circula-
tion. Don't tell me that you reach
ten times as many people with less
expense using circulars Don't
spring any Of those time worn gags
on me at ALL Stop standing in your
own light Get behind the local pa
per and push it for all you are worth.
don't mean push it to the wall.
Push II up grade to position where
it ought to be, and as sure as you are
alive you viii push your own busi-
uess up with it to a point younever
dreamed Of before.
When a man tells me he reaches
more people and gets better results
from his cirulars ! know that he is
deceiving himself and telling me
what can prove TO be untrue. A
newspaper in the community is read
by the people They learn to watch
for it. and when they get il every
member of the family wants his
turn to see what it says. Ads. and
all are read If the merchants of q
community will educate the people to
look in the newspaper for their an
nouncements the people will read
the paper more and greater will be
the returns.
There is no alley so long but that
has its ash barrels, and there is no
knock so powerful or subtle but that
it reacts. DO yourself favor and
keep up your end by supporting the
local newspaper, and support II for
all you are worth.
It can be added that whatever the
local papers do to help their city or
tDwn is Of benefit to every business
'man therein Chelsea (Mass.) Rec
ord.

EAGER TO GET LAND
FILINGS ON LAND AT ARCO
LASTED PAST MIDNIGHT
Hhree-fourths of the entire Segrega-
tion Probably Disposed of by To-
day. Choice Selections Made in
Heart of the Rich Powell Tract.

Arco, Sept 15-So eager were the
fortunate men who participated in
yesterdays land drawing here to en-
ter on their choice selections that
the filing Office of the Big Lost
River Irrigation Company was kept
open until midnight last night, and
still the crowd was not appreciably
thinned out. 1t was therefore decid-
ed to call off the departure of the
special train to outside points and
keep the crowd here until the last
filing has been made. From present
Indications it seems assured that
fully three-fourths of the entire seq
regation of 10000 viii have been
disposed of before noon today
The first selections and filings
were made in the center OF what is
called the Powell tract, where is To-
Gated some Of the finest land that
ever laid out Of doors. and where
it is confidently expected a large
town will spring up.

LIKES MOUNTAIN HOME BEST
After Looking Over Different Sec
tions of the West Fails to Find
Anything as Good as this.

Occasionally we are given the hap
by privilege of allowing the other
fellow sing the praise of our own
community and it really sounds
good to us We talk about our
many good things so much that it
all begins to read the same, and when
a stranger comes to the city and finds
new things to talk about, it is really
refreshing.
Some weeks ago Fred schonecke
entertained an old friend from the
Show Me" state who was looking
over the west. He came to the city
to visit his friend Fred and family
and after a week passed on. Listen
to his opinion on the community he
was about to pass after he had visit
ed the favored" sections of the
west.
