ENLAReEs SCOPE OF BUSINESS.

Elsewhere in this paper can be
found the ad of the Enterprise Meat
Market announcing to the farmers of
this vicinity that that concern will
pay the highest cash price for all
sorts of produce Berries, eggs, veg.
etables, spring chickens and in fact
everything raised on the farm now
comes under their line of business
as they have a demand from nearby
towns for much more than they can
furnish. If you have any produce to
sell give the Enterprise Meat Market
q chance at the same. They can
get you the highest cash price for
anything you have to sell. They are
especially desirous of getting hold of
spring chickens. This movement is
a new addition to their scope of bus
mess and they have succeeded in
getting in touch with enough of a
market to warrant the handling of
all kinds of farm produce ON cash
basis.

Cantaloupes Are
Looking Fine
Season Will Be Two Weeks Ahead
of Last Year and Melons Will
Be Moving by Last of JuIy-Pros-
poets Good for Large Crop Of
Fine Melons.

The year 1910 promises as much
in the way of cantaloupes as il
does in any other fruit line and
the large acreage in and around Pay
ette is looking fine. The season this
year is much ahead of that last
year and will be fully two weeks
earlier. Many of the largest grow
ers state that they will have canta-
loupes to ship by the last of July
this against the fact that last year
it was the fifteenth of August be-
fore cants began moving.
A. L. Wood who has sixteen acres
planted to cantaloupes states that
he has the finest field of melons he
ever had in Payette Valley and the
Jackson Brothers and E. d. Cox
also heavy growers of cantaloupes,
have extra good stands of melons
this year and are looking forward to
the largest and best
crop they ever harvested in this
valley.

sHADE TREES DYING
FOR LACK OF WATER

AS the sewer nears completion
there is good and sufficient evidence
presented in several different sec
tions Of the city that it has thor
oughly drained the city. In the
school house yard. near the Water
nan residence and in many other
places the leaves on the trees have
been withering until at last many
have awakened to the fact that if
they are tq be saved irrigation viii
be necessary and as a result bitches
are being dug and water is being
put on the trees to save them. Many
people were at first puzzled TO know
what was wrong with their shade
trees when the leaves began to
wither and the trees gave every ap-
pearanee Of dying. Investigation re-
vealed the fact that TIE sewer had
so completely drained that section
Of the city through which it ex-
tends that there was not sufficient
moisture for the trees 10 properly
thrive upon. In other instances the
shallow wells in the city have al
ready been drained dry by the sew
er and several parties have been
forced to drive and dig their wells
much deeper.

A. E. WRIGHT SERIOUSLY ILL.


Last Tuesday morning a week ago
while at a point on the Little Sal;
mon River about seventeen miles out
of Meadows A. E. Wright was sud-
denly taken seriously i'll so much so
that il became at once necessary TO
start back home with him at once.
He was taken to Meadows in an
auto by }. NJ Swanson who was with
him and at Meadows the doctor
there did everything possible to re-
lieve his suffering but to no avail:
= e. was placed on a stretcher and
! d from Meadows to Evergreen
where connection was made with
the p. I. n. railroad and he was
brought to Weiser and from Weiser
to Payette arriving Friday evening.
On arriving in Payette he was TAX
en- at once to the Woodward hos
pital where an operation was at
once decided upon as the only means
of saving his life. The operation re
vealed the fact that he was suffering
from a severe case of intestinal OBJ
struction and that a delay of few
more hours would have cost him
his life. The operation was entirely
successful and Mr.. Wright is rapidly
recovering although it will probably
be three or four weeks before he
is able to leave his bed.

Club Enjoys
Fine Meeting
Two Days Matinee Racing Program
Enjoyed by Members of Payette
Driving Club and Fair Association.

The two days racing matinee held
by the members of the Payette Driv-
ing Club and Fair Association was
a success as far as enjoyment to
the members of the club was con-
cerned but from point of attendance
it was not so flatteringly successful
as there was a light attendance both
days
On Friday the gath in the free
for all trot John A. Crawford, owned
by Hurd Brothers was an easy first
in the two heats with Major Lee a
Vale horse second and Kankakee
owned and driven by S. E. Chap
man third. The time of the first
heat was 2:S9 and of the second
2:3O.
In the three minute trot or pace
a two year old colt owned by C. F.
Wayne astonished his admirers by
going out and stepping the mile in
the first heat at 2:59 and repeating
the same effort by going the second
heat in minutes flat. This is an
excellent showing for a two year
old especially when it is understood
that he has only been In training
for sixty days and in fact never had
G harness on until that time. He is
surely a promising youngster. In
this race the Wayne colt Golden
won first, Antoine, a Vale horse
second and Hector owned by Hurd
Brothers third.
In the quarter mile dash on this
day there were about seven entries
and they got away well in a bunch
but finished rather struggled. School
Boy owned by Hurd Brothers and
ridden by Jesse Redington won
handily.
The program on Saturday the 25th
was rather curtailed on account of
some of the members of the associa-
ton withdrawing their horses.
In the 2:4O trot Dan B.. Mormon
and Antoine were the entries. Dan
B. took the two first heats in 2:47
flat with Mormon a close second and
Antoine third,
One of the exciting races of the
afternoon was three hundred yard
sprint between T. ", bay
mare owned by DR.. o. +. Lowell and /,
Niger Baby, a saddle horse owned
by Walter Keegan. Niger Baby /
showed his heels to T. V, and nearly
-an away and hid from her winning
ne race In l9 flat.
Another enjoyable feature of the
afternoons program was the exhibit
ion half mile paced by John A.
Crawford, Wilbur Hurd up. The
rack record is 1:O7% for a half
nile heat being made by Flaxy Nc
Gregor two years ago and an effort
was made to have John A. Craw-
ord lower the record. He stepped
he half in 1908 just failing by
7ery narrow margin te lower the
:ecord and there is no question in
he minds of any that saw him go
,ut what he can materially lower
hat record under proper conditions
The track was In very poor shape
n fact considerable care must be
lsed in making the turns and it was
simply impossible to let John A. do
lis best.
The most exciting event of the
,fternoon was the potato race on
,orse hack. There we're six entries
or this and when the dust of battle
lad cleared away, the judges an
louneed that Harley Verley had
Won first with Clyde Currin, Austin
Earl Mccullough, Dick
Purcell and DIR. o. E. Lowell finish
ng in the order named.
