Hyomei will open up and give relief
in five minutes.

and can pronounce it the best relief
for this trouble that / ever tried OF

Boston, Mass. March 80, '09. |
BuTTER-There is continued ;
fairly steady tone all around and on
strictly fancy butter possibly little
short market, but on all other grades
the market is practically unchanged.
Fancy northern creamery can be quoted
from 29c to 30c with western creamery
in ash selling from 2Sc to 29c but a
good many lots coming from the west
are not good enough to bring over 273c
to Csc. There is generous supply !
here of boxes and prints Of northern
creamery which is selling slow round
&c. We find very good inquiry for
dairy butter in tubs and this can be
quoted from 27c to Csc, Id boxes
generally selling from 27c to 29c.
EGGS-Market a week ago was a
little slow and we found it hard to
move goods readily at top quoted
prices and on this account they accun-
ulated a little here, but the past few
days has given US little better acting
market and we have been able to move
: more lots and the prospects at this
writing seem to be for continued
fairly firm market which we believe
will clean up all lots here. The tone
is firm and possibly from &c to lc a
t dozen higher than it was four days
ago. Fancy nearbys can be quoted at
22c with some of the best lots of

extras selling at practically the same
: price but we have had to sell some
, very good lines at 21c, with a good
many common lots coming from near
+ py points that will not bring over zoe

f ket should be considered. Westerns

e selected lots can be quoted at 2O2c
( While the trend of the market is up

expect any great further advance
k prices are plenty high enough for tn
lie time being. No doubt this advanc

Press Association Meeting.

An important meeting of the Press As
sociation was held at Payette, Ida, on
last Saturday and Sunday, where we were
royalty entertained by the hospitable eiti-
zens of that thriving and model city
The attendance was not as large as had
been expected, but those who did attend
were very enthusiastic in the promotion
of the welfare of the country and matters
pertaining to the newspaper business.
Many subjects were discussed for the bet
tering of conditions politically, socially
and morally. While we may differ in
our views on many subjects, yet we have
no trouble in getting together and having
a rattling good time when we meet. The
members of the organization were treated
to an automobile ride through the Payette
valley, where we enjoyed all the various
phases of automobiling while viewing
this beautiful valley. Only few years
have elapsed since it was only a sage
brush plain where the land could be pur-
chased at a low figure or settled by any
citizen, but now is selling at from $3.50 to
$1,000 per acre. Diversified farming,
where all kinds of produce is raised, inn
mense orchards, acres of berries, peas,
beans, sugar beets, ETC., are seen on every
hand. This is one of the garden spots of
the world, as can readily be seen. The
dwelling houses and all the buildings,
fences and other improvements indicate
the prosperity and enterprise of the own
ers, all Of whom have fine driving teams
and carriages, while many also have au-
tomobiles.

ladies at the Y. NJ. G. A. building, to
which all did ample justice.

cursion to New Plymouth.
The hospitable people of Payette will
long be held by the members of the Press
