A PLACE MUCH SOUGHT
BY AMBITIOUS MEN.


H. L. Hollister of Chicago is back
from the Irrigation Congress and from
his inspection of the great irrigating
works In the Twin Falls Country. on
which millions Of dollars are being
spent.
Every time come back from
Southern Idaho" said Mr.. HOLSTER,
Il feel a greater enthusiasm over this
wonderful development. 1t is SO far
ahead of anything we believed pos
sible that take off my hat to these
splendid people from every state who
are making the Twin Falls Country
land of beautiful farm homes, where
everybody Is certain to prosper. Thir-
ty to forty thousand people have
moved In but a million are coming.
Two important events are near at
hand. Our president, Mr.. w. 8. Kuhn
Of Pittsburg, has directed the townsite
OF HOLSTER to be opened Saturday,
Sept. IL, and the State Land Board
has ordered the opening Of the Twin
Falls-O Oakley tract of $4,000 acres for
entry under the Carey Act. Monday.
Sept. 20. the drawing to be held at
Miner.
"One at a distance cannot under
stand what an intense and widespread
interest such events as these create.
II people everywhere realized the mar
velous richness of these lands for fruit
culture and all kinds Of farming, and
"A cpIA 20 GAnfhorn
Idaho could not take care Of the
crowds who would come to share the
benefits of irrigation. That may sound
strong, but 1t is none too strong.
"Hollister is II miles south of Twin
Falls and we expect trains on the new
railroad for the opening on the 18th.
The Twin Falls Salmon tract Of more
than 100000 acres and vast mining
and grazing country will be tributary
to the new city. One person may rep
resent five others at the drawing and
two lots may be selected for each en-
try.
THE Twin s-Oakley tract Is
southeast of Miner. This Is Govern
ment land given to Idaho to sell to
settlers. The land and perpetual wa
ter for irrigation cost $65.50 per acre.
payable 1926 an acre on making en-
try, balance in II yearly installments.
The people will own the irrigating
works. Private sales of decided land
in this tract have been made at $500
an acre. When one can get 40 acres
of such land with down payment Of
$131 It is certainly a proposition worth
considering.
1.-THE immense crops of fruit, grain,
vegetables, etc., grown on this rich
volcanic ash soil makes 40-acre tract
worth 16O acres of Illinois land. It Is
really a wonderful country and the
place for men OF all ages who want
to prosper. Parties of friends all over
the country are chipping In to send
one or two persons to represent them
at the drawings. We are sending
free from our Chicago Office power Of
attorney blanks for this purpose.
