Senator N. ]. Sweeley Introduces Bill
In Legislature.

Senator M. ]. Sweeley has introduced
q bill In the senate to provide for a
state park at the Shoshone Falls. The
state owns 237 acres of land west OF
the falls that is of no use for anything
else but for park purposes. IT the bill
10 passed, this county is to spend $4,000
like sum to be asked from the state
to improve the land.
The bill refers to the surroundings
at the falls as follows:
THE surroundings Of the falls are
but little improved and furnish inade-
quate accommodations and conven-
fences for tourists. The land desired
for park provides some of the finest
views of the scenery and embraces
places that by Improvement can be
made of great interest and national at
traction.
''The land Is rough and rocky and SO
cut by the Snake river and ravines as
to be of practically no financial value
but with the proper outlay and atten-
ton can be developed into an asset
of great Importance to the state.

Calls Special Meeting to Con-
fere with Citizens.
SCHOOL PATRONS ASK STRICT EN-
FORCEMENT OF HEALTH LAWS.
City Council Appoints Special PATROL
men to See that No Persons Shall
Enter or Leave Afflicted Quarters.

Pursuant to request made by the
patrons and trustees Of the public
schools the city council convened in
special session last Thursday night to
decide on better quarantine for three
cases of scarlet fever SO far reported
within the corporate limits. After the
indignant citizens had expressed their
opinion the council issued orders to
the health officer to appoint special Of
flcers to patrol the streets In front Of
the houses and to arrest anyone at
tempting to enter or leave the prem
ises. While rumors make the danger
seem much greater than realty, yet
the disease is stopped as far as the
city Is concerned and the authorities
wish to keep 1t in check. One more
case has been reported In the country
but owing to the lack Of state laws
the authorities are helpless to estab-
lish quarantine outside the city linn
its.
I The school board. while keeping q
strict watch on the disease, do not an
ticipate further spread and will not
close the schools until such action
should become imperative

Twin Falls Looks Good to Ia-
dependent Phone Concerns.
REPRESENTATIVES FROM BUTTE
AND SALT LAKE IN THE CITY.
Montana Company Offers Reductions
In Present Rates On An Automatic
System-Committee Will Investigate.

The meeting of the Commercial club
on Monday evening brought out moth
ing but further perplexity for the
phone users. The cause of the per-
plexity lies this time in the number
of companies applying for franchise
from the Utah 1nde-
pendent Telephone company and the
Montana automatic telephone of Butte
were present and presented their
cases to the club. Mr.. H. B. Risely of
Butte, on behalf of his company, stat
ed that in his opinion the cost Of in
stalling a new system would be in the
neighbOrhood of $4,000, and that 1t
could be ready for use in about sixty
days. He further stated in response to
questions that the rates in Butte for
the automatic system were lower than
the rates of the Bell company in cities
of the same size. A rough estimate
by Mr.. Risely placed the cost for
service at $500 for business phones
and 81, so to $500 for residences. Long
distance service could not be promised
short Of six months.
r. B. Jones of Salt Lake City, repre-
senting the Utah Independent Tele-
phone company, was next given {
nearing anu pTOCo0ueu u StdIt CIldt IL
his opinion that system of centra
energy would cost $4,000, and would
take three months to install from thu
time of beginning. He would make nj
promise of reduction of rates in any
case.
The club then took up the question
of franchise and after debate voted tt
ask the council to grant a franchise
to one of the two Independent com
panies after committee from the clul
had investigated the merits Of thu
rival propositions.

EXCELLENT PAPERS READ BY
STATE UNIVERSITY EXPERTS.
Several of the Helpful Articles Pre-
pared TO Be Reproduced In the
County Newspapers.

On Thursday, Friday and Saturday
of last week the Farmers Institute
occupied the center of the stage and
attracted large number OF ranchers
in spite of the mud and rain. The pro-
gram as published was carried out to
a great extent and the different topics
of farm work were ably handled by
the speakers. Most of the men were
farmers who have made a marked sue
cess in some branch of agriculture or
horticulture and their papers, CAREFUL
ly written, were subjected to a critical
questioning by the audiences. The de-
bates in all cases developing much in
formation. The institute which was
to a great extent the direct work of
Alex. Mcpherson and j. A. Waters,
proved of such benefit to all who at
tended that next year a larger attend
ance is certain. The presence at the
meeting of Professors French, Frans-
don and Shinn of the State University
at Moscow, added materially to the
success of the institute with their ar
ticles on Sheep, Dairying and Land
scape Gardening.
A number of the papers given were
secured by the managers and will be
published in the county papers for the
benefit of the farmers unable to at
tend the sessions.
!. Articles by Prof Frandson and A.
| P. Senior on "Dairying' and Market
Gardening" respectively, appear in
this issue and the other articles will

GETTING DOWN TO CERTAINTY.
Cross SectiOning Of Buhl-Parma Cut
off Commenced by 0. s. L. Ry.

The construction OF the Buhl main
line extension of the Short Line
through the Bruneau country along
the south side OF the Snake river to a
point opposite Parma, and from that
point across the river to the present

reports being received to the effect
that the Short Line corps of engineers,

of work preliminary to inaugurating
active work on the proposed route.
The corps of engineers that has been
working on surveys, stalking out the
route and driving grade stakes, has
been noncommittal and information as
to the probable connection with the
present main line has not been vouch-
safed.
For short time indications pointed
toward Boise as the probable point of
connection, but from recent develop
ments it would seem that Parma or a
point in that locality is to be the con-

crossing at a point nearly opposite
Parma many miles of construction,

DAIRYING.
(By Professor J. H. Fransdon, Univer-
Sity of IdahO)

That dairy farming is q profitable
business is fully shown by its mar
velous growth during the past decade.
No other branch of agriculture has
ever seen such rapid development in
the same length of time. It's growth
has been universally noticeable in all
parts of our country. The dairy COW
produces more human food from q
given amount of feed than any other
animal of the farm, and as the popula-
tion of the United States increases,
dairying will become more and more
important.
Many sections OF Idaho possess con-
ditions particularly favorable to dairy
ing. Here is found cheaper land,
plenty of good, cheap feed, rich In pro-
tein, good water and mild and

lists to the police station, and it was
only with difficulty that the men of
research escaped the intoxicated en-
thusiasm of the trio.
The professors, clad in clothes for
roughing it, and carrying bags for col
lecting specimens of shells, larva and
seaweed, had been out on the beach
near Diamond Head and were return
ing home when they were followed by
three Hawaiians, one of whom was
Philip Davis.
Nearing Thomas square one of the
followers placed his hand on the Shout
der of one of the men of learning and
informed him and his fellow alchemlst
that they were both under arrest as
deserters from Admiral Sebree's squa-
dron and had better come along to the
police station without putting up any
resistance. The Hawaiians had in
sight the ten dollars reward paid TOR
the capture of any deserter.
The naturalogists bethought them
it would be well if they made a get
away, and so they took to their learned
legs and hiked strenuously for the Nc
Kinley High School grounds for cover.
The Hawaiians went scorching after,
intent upon their reward
The president of the College of Ha-
wall thereupon appeared on the scene
land conceived that there was something
going on in the way of excitement. He
INTERCEPTED MS professors whereupon
ne told the Hawaiians to go away,
that they were mistaken.
The Hawaiians went away, all right
but they met Deputy Sheriff Charles
Rose and informed him that two deser-
tiers were hiding in the Mckinley High
School building.
Rose, naturally enough, went to a
police box and telephoned for an Off
Ger to come out and help him bring
in two deserters.
Meanwhile the Hawaiians surround
ed the school building in case the
"runaways' tried to escape.
Then the president of the college,
waiting for car, espied the Deputy
Sheriff and suggested to him that the
three Hawaiians who were hanging
round the schol had better be ordered
away, as they were up to mischief and
had claimed that two of his professors
were deserving sailors
A great white light broke in on
the mind of the Deputy Sheriff and
he forthwith threw a scare into the
three reward-seeking Hawaiians, chas-
ing them away under threat of arrest,
although he Is not sure yet that he
convinced them that the professors
were not runaway man-of-warsmen.
