After hearing Pops petition, JUS
tice Mccall granted him permission TO
change his name from Popp to Pope.
Popp set forth that a name may mean
dollars and cents 20 a person. He
said that he was a foreman in tne
manufacturing department of a con
Germ al No. Ga Fifth avenue, and his
,uccess IN the business depended
largely in his dignity and the dici-
Dline he maintained among the EN-
ployes. In the last few months, he
said, ne found that his name not only
caused 1im much loss of time in al
te1iing 20 business, but that il lost
him the respect of his su~bordinates.
He explained that no matter how
much dignity he maintained. When
ever one OF his superiors came out to
his department and called: Say,
Popp, how about this?" or Whats
the trouble. Popp?" ais dignity was
lost n his subordinates assumed an
unpleasantly familiar tone.
His name was a draw back. too, in
talking business over The telephone.

Attention Farmers!
Electric Power For Pumping.

Without water your fertile valley lands are dormant,
fail to respond to most industrious cultivation and con-
tlnues tip tenaciously hold the hidden wealth locked with
in the POLL. With water the same fertile lands are no
longer Dormant and no longer fail to respond to indus
trious cultivation, but will bring forth wealth in a most
generous manner. Golden fields of grain, green fields of
alfalfa dnd acres OF orchard will appear where now the
lands are barren. This is the law of nature. To elevate
the watfr from It's present level to the level OF your lands
at the lowest cost so the lands may be irrigated is the
problem confronting you. The solution of the problem
Is the u4e OF electric power for pumping.
Electric power is the cheapest power for pumping and
all power purposes for the farmer aud all power users.
II is NOT only the cheapest, but is the safest and the most
reliable hnd convenient power that can be used. In addi-
ton, it Is the only power that IAN be applied directly at
the point where the power is wanted, viz: At the pump
shaft, with direct connection TO the shaft, saving the
large los3 of power due to friction in betting, pulleys and
shafts. We are ready to demonstrate the truthfullness of
these statements to all corners.
We DIRE prepared to furnish power for the irrigation
OF 1O,OOp acres of land the coming season and will in
crease otr plant capacity as the business demands.
Lines "it be extended for a distance of 20 miles from our
power plant where the business warrants the expense OF
construction. We are not justified in mourning The cost
OF line construction and other necessary expense unless at
least 5000 acres will use electric power the coming
season.
We Ill not ask the farmer to subscribe for any of
our stock, or to contribute or donate to US, or to be at
any other expense than the cost of the line from the main
transmission line along the public highway over his prem
ises to his pumping station. the necessary pump and
motor equipment for his well and a concrete weir for
measuring the water. The contract must. however, be
in such fotm as to follow the land regardless of change of
ownership
Those interested are requested to call at our office or
write, furnishing the following information:
a. Name and Post Office address.
CO. Number of acres owned.
(3) Number of acres to be irrigated.
a. Location and description OF land.
(5) Size of well and actual or estimated flow and
length of well casing. If well is to be drilled SO
state and when it will be completed.
TO- Distance water is to be elevated.
% Distance from our power plant to land along
public highways.
49, Names and addresses of others who require and
now want power for pumping.a
Remember it takes time to construct lines and make
installations and it is only a few months until you will
need the water. If you are interested you should act at
once.

The Boise Statesman had an inter-
view with Mr.. ]. e. Boss of this city
who is interested in the Birch creek
mines and he told them work would
soon commence grading on the
branch from Armstead to Birch
creek. This is said to be Gilmore
proposition, but everything goes to
show that the Northern Pacific is be-
hind it. The survey Of this takes
the road through tunnel that will
cost not less than two million dol
lars; and we cannot imagine any one
believing that short branch road
would tunnel through mountain
1000 feet when they could reach the
objective point easily by going
around. A glance at the map Of
Idaho and Montana will show the
Northern Pacific at Twin Bridges In
Montana and that it is not a great
distance from there to Armstead and
from Armstead through Birch coun-
try to Salmon and to Boise City
might be the objective point.
