GOVERNMENT TOWN LOT SALE.

OiOll pfOJecUS III Tue west, many
OF which were located in the cen
ter Of an uninhabited desert, the
Reclamation Service set aside
certain tracts OF land for town
site purposes.
On opsning the agricultural
lands to the homeseekers who
fiocked thither from all parts of
the country, there was created
at once a demand for town lots
upon which to establish the var
led lines OF business required to
supply the needs of the settlers.
Public auctions were held and
portions of the townsites were
disposed of for cash to the high
est bidder.
The growth of the country has
promoted that of the adjacent
towns, which under the stimulus
OF the excellent crop yields Of the
farms, have steadily prospered.
The rapid increase in population
in a number of thenew commune
ties necessitates the holding of
another auction sale of town lots.
On the Minidoka project in
southern Idaho, embracing 1872
600 acres of exceptionally fertile
land now occupied by more than
1000 families, there are four
new towns, three of which are
government towns. In the geo.
graphical center of the project is
the new town OF Rupert, contain
ing 800 acres. Its growth has
been such that the government
has decided to offer at public
sale, beginning April s, two hun
dred acres of the townsite. The
land has been subdivided into
lots 50x140 feet each and APP
praised from $50 to $50 each.
Rupert is an Incorporated vii
lage with a population of 500,
and is situated on branch of
the Oregon Short Line. A new
line commencing at Rupert and
running west to Bliss, Idaho, will
be completed in 1910. Trans
portation facilities are. excellent
and are being improved in adj
vance of the needs of the COM
munity.
From the big government dam
large amount of cheap power
is developed, and contracts for
supplying some of itfor the light
ing ofRupert, and forcommercial
and manufacturing purposes,
have been approved by the Sec
rotary of the Interior.
AS an investment these lots are
attractive. Rupert is bound to
grow to a town of several thou
sand inhabitants. Surrounding
it are 10000 acres of land divid-
ed into 40 and 80 acres farms.
The diversified crops and inten-
sive farming of this region, che
fertile soil, and favorable climate,
assure the future and continued
prosperity of the farmer, and
furnish sufficient basis upon
which to predicate the substan-
tial growth of the town.
There is today a good demand
for houses to rent, and it will
doubtless prove profitable to i'm
prove these lots by putting up
houses which will produce good
revenue. AS a plan for future
residence, Ruperthas advantages
not usually found in a new coun-
try like this. 1t has an $4,000
public school, five denomination.
al churches, several fraternal so
cieties, a woman's culture club
and all lines ofbusiness are repre-
scented except manufacturing.

One week from today will tell the

a campaign of apathy on the part OF

When the real part of the cam

HIGH SCHOOL TEAM
DEFEATED SATURDAY
LOCAL TEAM MET WITH A STE.
WE'RE DEFEAT AT THL HANDS
OF THE SIOUX FALLS HIGH
SCHOOL.

There was not much hilarity in the
crowd of football enthusiasts when
they came home Saturday night from
Sioux Falls, where they met defeat
in the afternoon by a score of 81 tc
0 in the high school game.
The Mitchell lads really did not
expect to win against their more for.
midable a~dversaries, but they did ex.
pect to score. The sum and substance
of the situation was that the Mitchell
boys were outweighed by the Sioux
Falls crowd, and they were unable
to cone along that line. Several of
the Mitchell players weigh out but
1875 pounds and compared with many
of the Sioux falls team at 100 and
over the difference Is apparent when
thev get on the gridiron.
The following account OF the game
is taken from the Sioux Falls Press:
Sioux Falls, 81; Mitchell, Zone OF
those things"
Such is the tragic end Of the hopes
of the Mitchell high school pigskfn
artists so far az a look-in for the
state title is concerned. The visi-
tors started game and "nded game,
but they were so far o%utclassed in all
OF the game that they were. to
use the gridiron classical, tramped on.

IN smooth sweep from the face Of the
earth.
Though the score failts to show ef-
fectual work on the part Of the visi-
tors 1t is to be admitted hat only
bad fortune prevented a most des-
perate effort at a drop kick. Twice
In the second period OF play the visi-
tors were within striking distance
and Derr made efforts at drop kick
