WAREHOUSE FOR POTATOES.
The Potato Growers of This Section Ia
Erect Stone Building a.
Aberdeen.

Aberdeen is going to have ware
house for the storing of the farmers
products. This much was definitely
decided upon at meeting of the Aber-
deem Potato Growers association, held
Saturday evening. A committee con-
sisting of John Toevs, o. 7. Faa and
R. A. Stearns was appointed to ascer-
tain what amount of money would be
subscribed by the residents of the dis
trict, and it is almost an assured fact
that the building will be started within
the next two weeks.
The meeting Saturday evening was
well attended, notwithstanding the dis
agreeable weather, and every member
of the association present was heartily
in favor of the warehouse and all ex-
pressed a willingness to subscribe
money for the erection of the building.
r. A. Stearns said that building 40
feet wide by 140 deep, two stories high,
could be erected at cost of about
81, 800. This building would be built of
stone and the walls to be 16 inches
thick. There will be two stories, one
above and one below the ground Many
of the members were in favor Of a con-
crete building, but it was shown that a
concrete building would cost about
twice the amount of the stone building,
and those men Immediately withdrew
their objection. A stone building will
serve as well as a concrete building and
much of the material can be obtained
within few miles of town.
Money for the building will be raised
by the sale of stock in the warehouse
company. The stock will have par
value of $40 share and payment for
the stock can be made either by cash
or labor. Any person may purchase
stock in the warehouse, but no person
or corporation will be allowed to buy
more than 25 shares Of stock. Another
I excellent rule of the company is that
4 no one will be allowed to dispose of his
stock without first obtaining consent of
/ the association. By this means no one
4 firm or corporation can possibly secure
. control of the warehouse, and the build
ing viii always remain the property of
the farmers who built it.
It was the general opinion of the
members of the association that the
building of a grain elevator in Aber-
deem was an unnecessary expense this
year, and the matter was dropped anc
no action will be taken or this PROPOSE.
tion this year. The cost Of a grain ele.
vator to suit the needs of the commun-
ity would be nearly $4,000, and it was
decided that it would be impossible tC
erect this building at this time. 1t is
understood that the matter will be kept
before the association, and the building
erected and made ready for use by next
fall.
Another meeting of the association
will be held in about one week, at ~slt
time the committee appointed to solre-
subscriptions will make its report
When this report is made the associa
will know just what action can be taken
and set the date for the beginning O.
the warehouse. The building will b.
erected on the spur track Of the rail
road, where the products can be place.

Wreck in Yards.

Thursday night rear-end collision
in the o. S. L. yards at this place just
inside the yards below the water tank
delayed traffic several hours. Five cars
were derailed, one rolling down the
enbankment. No one was hurt in the
mixup.

CITY'S VAST
IMPROVEMENTS
Since January First $l5O,00O
Has Been Expended.
Many Business Blocks and Modern
Homes Have Been Completed.
Many Others Are Now
Being Planned.

The present year has been the best in
the history of American Falls, in the
way of progress, not that expenditures
in improvements were greater but
more varied. Two years ago, when
the Hotel Remington, the Touring mill,
the Fall Creek Sheep company, Oliver
& Mckown, the First National bank,
the Hager and Press buildings were
erected, cement side walks laid and
other improvements made, the expendi-
lures were larger but they were con-
fined to fewer improvements.
A larger number of good residences
have been erected this year than any
previous, and the building is by no
means over. The number of business
buildings has been practically doubled,
and others are in prospect.
Subjoined is list of the better build
ings, which is by no means bad record
for small town, and when their
character is taken into consideration,
the record is better than the totals.
American Falls is the most substantial
ly built new town in Idaho.
