to be Started Near the
Station.

Ralph Simpkins.-who is devoting
his time to settling Medbury valley
and bringing it into prominence, re-
turned there Monday after a week
spent here in the interest of\ that
growing community. Ralph lsays
how that Medbury has secured a
postoffice the growth of the valley
takes another forward impulse, and
Especially since it has been decided to
pat down another artesian web TO
secure water for irrigation. -
He states that a meeting will be
called at an early date to take steps
in the matter of organizing some
form of commercial club to promote
and advertise the valley and to Sc
cure settlers. In talking to the Nav
erick, Ralph delivered himself of the
following
''Those who possess land in Med
bury valley are of course aware of the
many advantages that section has.
The attitude of many is that this
knowledge should be kept a precious
secret, whereas it must be impaired
to others before capital for develop
ment can be induced to go there.
There are but two courses to pursue.
One is to keep strictly mum about the
best little valley in Idaho; the other
is to set forth it's merits by the only
method possible advertising.
''The suggestion has been made
that as a beginning a folder be
printed to be distributed on trains
and sent out in all letters. Another
plan is to erect large sign beard al
the station where it can be seen by
the passengers on all trains contain

flowing wells there will yield not onl,

wells we have two other sources from
which water for irrigation may b
