BUY AND SELL REAL ESTATE.
Live Firm For This Purpose Now Do
ing Business in the Rockland
Valley.

H. P. Frodsham and E. w. Fifeld,
two of Rockland's business men have
joined forces to take care of land seek
ers for that section, and we predict for
the company prosperous future.
Mr.. Fifield has been a resident of the
Rockland section for the past two years
and has in that time thoroughly famil-
raized himself with the section which
with his past experience in the land
business will make a hustling partner
for Mr.. F'rodsham who needs no intro
duction to people here. He has been
nearly thirty years in that section of
Idaho and there is not a man better
posted on conditions or soil than is Mr..
F'rodsham. He. has acted as locator
for new settlers for many years and
knows the country like book. His
dealings have always been above board
and there is no place where he has
proven himself anything but honest.
This combination will mean much for
that section for there is nothing which
can do more for this country than live
real estate firm.

convention will be held at Caldwell,
Idaho, January 13 and IA, 1910, under
the auspices of the Grange. A pro-
gram including papers on subjects per-
tanning to pure seed and cultivation of

is urged to send in exhibits and every
farmer in the state, old or young, is in
vited to attend. No fees will be
charged for entries and admission is

omy association will be organized be-
fore the close of the convention.
A complete premium list containing
the rules governing the exhibit can be
had by addressing the Grange at Cald-
well. This meeting will be instructive
from every point of view to the seed
growers of Idaho and we would be glad
to see number of our farmers attend.

Wool Shipments Will Increase.

There will be an increase in the
amount of wool shipped from Utah and
Idaho next year over the season Just
closed, that will run from Is to 20 per
cent, according to B. Harris of st.
Louis, one of the largest wool buyers
in the western market.
Mr.. Harris has been in Salt Lake for
several days looking over the situation
and preparing his plans for the coming
seasons work. He declared that the
wool growers will be in velvet next
season, and that it will be the biggest
and most prosperous season in the hist
ory of the industry.
In addition to the increased output
from Utah and Idaho, which will run
between Is and 20 per cent" he said,
"the prices will be higher. There is a
greater quantity of wool used in the
manufacturing industry than ever be-
fore. 1t is too early to predict the pre-
vailing price, but it will go consider.
ably higher than this years prices,
believe. 1t will be fine year for the
wool grower, but it will not be so good
for the buyer. "-Pocatello Tribune.

MRS. MATTS0N
WINS RANGE
Closing Day the Largest in
History of Contest.
Range Contest Closed Yesterday and
Votes Were Counted Mrs.
Mattson Winning by
Big Majority.

Mrs. Matt Mattson, with vote of
45, $50 is awarded the $50 range given
away by the Press. Her nearest COM
petitor was Mrs. Clint Robinson, of
Rockland, who received 22,72 votes.
The contest closed at noon yesterday,
and in few hours preceding its close
Mrs. Mattson received more than 15,
900 votes, which accounts for her large
lead. OF these Mrs. G. A. Perry, of
Rockland, brought in 5000 votes. She
has been warm supporter of Mrs.
Mattson from the first, and to her eff
forts, largely, is due Mrs. Mattson's S
success. Others who were entered in
the contest were Mrs. H. T. Stanger,
A, 460 votes. Miss Barbara Warner,
Rockland, II, 140 votes. Miss Jennie
Morris, Rockland, 1,190 votes. Mrs.
Ella Commons, Landing, 8,1l0. The
total vote cast was 80, 80, so that Mrs.
Mattson had clear majority over all.
Some of the contestants entered late,
and others dropped out because they
did not care to compete with Mrs.
Mattson, who is not only deserving, but
is less able to fight the battles of life
than any of the other candidates. Mrs.
Clint Robinson has several times been
near the head of the list, and under
different conditions might have won.
The stove is a $50 Good Luck range,
of the latest pattern, and was yester-
day afternoon taken to Mrs. Mattson's
home and set up by the Oliver & Nc
Kown Hardware Company, from whom
it was purchased. 1t was most worth
lily bestowed, and the Press desires to
thank all the contestants and it's read
ers for the interest taken and the good
natured rivalry

Four of Iowa's Farmers Decide
Make Idaho Their Future
Home.

Last week there arrived in American
Falls four men from Iowa to visit with
an old time Iowa neighbor, L. w. CO.
tant, who is now located in Rockland,
recently arriving from Washington. 1t
was really not the intention of these
men to locate in Idaho when they left
their home in Iowa, but having COM
pleted the harvest work they decided
the summers labor had earned for them
a vacation and American Falls was one
of the spots they desired to visit for a
chat with Mr. Cotant.
The party consisting of A. H. Gould,
J. C. Zahrt, Dan Beatty and James
Gould, after spending day in American
Falls were taken out to Rockland and
the wonders of the valley shown them.
After few days investigation guided
by Mr.. Cotant and several meals prs.
pared from the fruits of the valley by
Mrs. Cotant, they each and all decided
to bid goodbye to good old Iowa and To-
cate in Idaho where Uncle Sam gives a
farm to every man. They returned to
Iowa Tuesday of this week and when
departing told US they would be here
with horse and plow by March 1st to
take up the land they had filed on.

FOUND NOT GUILTY
Jury in Case of State VS.. Asa Church
Returned the Above Verdict
Last Monday.

Asa Church, who was arrested Satur-
day of last week on a charge of selling
liquor without license, was cleared
from the charge by eight men as jurors
in Justice Jones court Monday. The
complaint was filed in the case by Alvin
Meadow, County Attorney Jones pro-
scouting. Attorney Winter appeared
for the defendant. Considerable time
was spent in the selecting of a jury,
each exhausting all Their peremptories.
Alvin Meadow, Chas. Clinton and
Fred Arlington were witnesses for the
state and swore that each received
from Asa Chu rch in the w. A. West
building in American Falls on Septem-
Der 80, 1909, drink of whiskey and
soda mixed for which 40 cents was paid.
Witnesses for the defendent swore
that this mixture sold was ginger ale

Fruit and Alfalfa for Dry Farms.

At the Dry Farm congress in Billings this week Colo
rado who has been following dry farming for fourteen
years said the safest dry farm crops he had found were
fruit trees and alfalfa Both deep rooted and dry

He advised seeding alfalfa early in spring as possible

the dryest of years. and secured good has we'll His ex
perience has been duplicated in smaller way at Anerisan

year from spring seeding and the dry land orchards have
made good growth with a very slight loss of trees If
the longer experience of this Colorado gentleman means
anything it that the expanse of country above
the canals American Fails will be dotted with
alfalfa fields and small orchards The success of the nas

through which bottles of liquor were
passed on signal, and through which
the room could be quickly cleared Of
illegal goods on the slightest alarm.
The jury was packed against the
prosecution, and from the time the
panel was filled there was no hope for
conviction. Several members of that
jury have been served with intoxicants
in that building by the defendant or his
agents since the license expired, and
condone the offense charged. Marshal
Barnard Summoned the jurors, but the
suggestion of its personel came from
some other mind.
The defense was simple denial, not
only of the specific charge, but that
any liquor at all had been sold, brought
into or taken from the building. And
a majority of the jury, under oath,
with a personal knowledge of the truth
or falsity of the statement, said they
believed the defendant.

Irene Theatre Opened.

Last Saturday evening the Irene
Theatre in American Falls was opened
and packed to the outer doors during
the entire performance which lasted
from Z 80 until 10 o'clock. The Ameri-
can Falls band played several pieces
in the streets in honor of the occasion.
With the show which can be seen here
on canvas for ten cents there is no
doubt that the new house will be
packed every night. There is an en-
tire change of program every evening,
something which is seldom found in a
town the size of American Falls.

LEAGUE OF COMMERCIAL CLUBS.
Fifth Annual Meeting Held at Pocatel-
10 Success in Every
Way,
little town

The meeting of the League of South
ern Idaho Commercial Clubs, held at
Pocatello, last week, was the most sue
cessful in the history of the league.
The secretary's report showed that
$1,000 had been expended in advertising
Idaho, as result of which the state
has secured thousands of desirable
settlers. The league now has nineteen
members, all debts paid, and is in
fiourishing condition. The secretary's
report will be printed in sufficient num-
bers to give every member of every
local club copy.
The sessions lasted throughout two
days and closed by a banquet at the
Elk's Club, rendered by the citizens of
Pocatello. A feature of local interest
was the lectures delivered at Seattle,
in the Leagues building, accompanied
by moving pictures and views. Profess
sor Thompson delivered the lectures to
crowded houses both evenings One of
the talks was on American Falls and
the other on Bannock county. Mr.
Hofer, of the aho-Oregon Develope-
ment Congress, delivered an address on
using the credit of the state to build
railroads, and E. M. Higha dealt with
the subject from practical standpoint.
R. B. Greenwood was elected member
of the executive committee of the
league for the fifth time.

BEAT EARLY WASHINGTON.
This Country Has Advantages Over the
Early Days in Washington Where
Land is Now Priceless.

This week an old timer of the Wash
ington country visited this community
and tells us we are better off in every
way than we represent ourselves to be.
This gentleman, Henry Rock, of Pull
man, Wash, settled in Washington
state when there was only little spur
of railroad thirty miles long west of
the mountains. He tells of some of the
trials which settlers of those days had
to contend with and compares them
with conditions here. ''You can do
here in five years what we accomplish
ed in twenty" was the way he put it.
The conditions here are so different, we
have the outlet for our crop and the
settlement is greater. He tells us that
he had heard much of the American
Falls and Aberdeen country before he
came here but did not expect to look
upon such section as this. He has
visited the Rockland country and some
in the direction of Aberdeen. He also
says that he will visit here again in the
spring or summer of next year and
should it look to him as it does now he
will locate with us.
Mr.. Rock is a man of means, having
large ranch in Washington and should
he decide to be one of us he will be in a
position to do great deal for the
country.

Gazette Editor Returns.

t. Dewitt Foster, editor of the Alb
erdeen Gazette, was in the city yester-
day. He is just returning to Aberdeen
from Salt Lake, where he has been the
past two weeks, on mission that comes
to all, that of burying his father. The
community extends to Mr.. Foster their
sympathy in his trials. He is on his
way to Aberdeen to resume the news
paper work of the Gazette and we hope
by this his load of grief may be made
lighter. We are glad to see him again
in the field and trust his labors will be
appreciated by the good people of that
little town.

one of Landings farmers and has a
large acreage in grain as well as other

money and easier money can be made
here than in Washington.
