Still ascending he swept back in a
big circle, and as he reached the
North end of the enclosure, he started
his spiral glide. He was then at an
altitude Of about 500 feet. With his
planes tilted at an angle of almost
90 degrees, he swooped down in a
narrow circle, the aeroplane seeming
to turn almost i'm it's own length. As
he started the second circle the mid

wing tips of both upper and lower

surveying a Large Tract of Land
Near American Falls.

A Unj'.d States General Land
Office surveying party arrived on
Tuesday T the purpose of sur
veying land near American Falls.
Quite a body of land west of here,
in Blaine county, has been settled
during the past two years, under
oossessory filings and the survey is
for the purpose of enabling settl-
ers to make homestead filings and
in time secure patents to the lands
they are improving. These lands
lie west o. the Big Dry farm, and
include some choice farming lands
which during the present unfavor-
able year produced excellent crops
of grain

MAIN POWER PLANT

Thirty Thousand Horsepower to- He
Added to the 5000 Already De-
veloped--Improveme Will
Come Within a Year.

Thirty thousand additional horse
power is to be developed at Ameri-
can Falls during the coming year
by the building of new power sta
ton, which will constitute the main
plant of the system, as projected
several years ago. The wing dam,
about one third built, is to be com
pleted, and will be a part of the
new works. The excavation for the
new station, which has heretofore
been referred to as Station No. 3,
was made several years ago
but according to plans now adopted,
Is by far too small and will be en-
larged to more than double it's
present size, and above it will rise
station more than 800 feet long
From an unofficial sourse the Press
is informed that the improvements
Will cost approximately half a mil
lion dollars. Authority for the an
nouncement that the plant will be
built the coming year comes from
Governor Brady, who controls prac-
tlcally all the stock of the Idaho
Consolidated Power Company. Gov.
ernor Brady was here for a few
hours Monday, settling a few deaiIs
OF construction preparatory to submit
the plans for bids, and stated that
work would begin as soon as the
contracts could be let and contract
ors get materials s-for that -purpose
Development of the power re-
sources of American Falls was be-
gun about ten years ago by Cover
nor Brady. The first unit of 1900
horsepower was installed in the is
land station. Later Station No. 2,
on the west bank of the river was
built and another 1900 horsepower
unit added. About year ago the
third unit was installed. and these
are now supplying light and power
for American Falls. Blackfoot, Ross
Fork, and Pocatello The new sta
ton will have practically ten times
the capacity of those now in opera
ton and will enable the company
to meet all demands for power that
Will be made within the next decade,
whether for manufactures or cleo
trio railways. 1t is the intention OF
the company to use this power for
the upbullding of Idaho, and the
more of it that can be used in
American Falls, without the build
ing of expensive transmission lines

tabled as not being a proper subject
upon which to take action. Monday S
session was given over to consid-
Grafton of legislation, the club re-
iterating its position in favor of
eliminating the second choice fea-
ture, changes making it less easy
for members of one party to partic-
ipate in the nomination of candid
ates for any other party, and A
reasonable adjustment of the ex-

might at least meet the people of

One of the Good Dinners.

Among the praises to be giver
for Thanksgiving fancy feeds comes
form small party who went out to
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Sam Rid
die. Turkey with all the trimmings
and other good things too numerous
to mention is their description OF
the dinner, and from the fact that
the same party ate chicken dinner
with Mrs. Riddle last summer, and
left the foot ball game to get there
on this occasion is evidence suffi-
Client that Mrs. Riddle is an artist
at making dinners and entertaining.
Long live Mr.. and Mrs. Riddle, and
may we remain friends and neigh
bors," is the toast of the party.

Fair Prices,

The auction sale of implements

farm Tuesday did not bring a very
large crowd, but those present came
Tor business and the sale was a sue
cess, fair prices being realized The
traction engine and thu combine
were the only things not Sold. and
considering the fact that the eouip-
ment was sufficient to handle three
or four thousand acres. the record
Is a good one. L. w. Cotant was
the auctioneer.
The dry farm is a collection of
homesteads which have been omar
ated on the community plan. In the
spring of 1908 about 800 acres was
IN grain. In 1909 the farm had
grown to 400 acres and the past
season 34O0 acres were harvested
me machinery was owned in
common by the settlers who had
banded themselves together for the
purpose of employing labor saving
meathods and machinery. At the
annual meeting held in March il
was decided to disband the asso-
uation at the close of this sea
son work, and the sale was held
accordingly. The land will be here
after farmed in small tracts by
the owners. The farm has been a
Iactor in demonstrating the possi-
Dllltles of growing crops without
irrigation. and has not only been
successful but served a useful pur-
pose.
