South Idaho Getting Them.

John Pulse returned last week from
Pocatello where he had been attending
a meeting of the state pharmaceutical
board of which he is a member. In
speaking of his trip he stated that i'm
migration is pouring into the south
part of our state by the train load and
especially is this true of the irrigated
sections like Twin Falls.
Nampa and other towns Of South
western Idaho are also getting their
share of the people and it seems the
middle class, people with considerable
means, form the per centage Of the
newcomers. 1t will be remembered
the Twin Falls country has received a
great amount of advertising during
the past two years, bureau being
maintained in Chicago for months and
may be there yet, where information
and no doubt some mis-information
was given out and advertising in the
papers of the middle west section was
extensive.
The country down there is not as good
as this Of the Panhandle but where
the difference comes in the people
know about it, have listened to the
stories Of great fortunes to be made
time after time, the promoters have
kept everlastingly at it until almost
every section of the middle-west knows
of Twin Falls and the irrigated land.
What is the use to have the best il
you keep it quiet?

Autos Out In Force

These fine spring days brings the
auto-fends out of the winter quarters
in great number and no matter which
way you look you can see white car
or a red car cut the corners i'm Grange
vile, nowadays. John Jack brought
his forty horsepower machine from
Lewiston this week and is kicking
dust in the others faces. This is Of
the famous "Buick" build and has
stood the test, this is the machine sold
by the Grangeville Implement Co.,
who report the sale of Buick No.
10, known as the "tourabout' car to
DR.. Stockton. Walter Crosby sold a
motor buggy to DR.. Riggs and in a
few days we presume the Doctor will
be an enthusiastic motorist. This
makes six cars for Grangeville and
with wheat over dollar bushel it is
difficult to guess the number that will
be sold before fall.

that sharing has prevailed this season
