JUST ONE FAULT.
New Sidewalks Do Not Encourage
the Baby Cab Industry.

New Sidewalks DO Not encourage
the Baby Cab Industry.
These who have occasion to go
to or from the north part of town,
aaare wondering how they ever got
along without the side walks which
were laid last week from the Com
pany office clear to the north end
of town. It's a lot better than go
ing in the mud. The only criticism
of the walks is that they do not es-
peciaiiy encourage the baby-eab in
dustry, not being built for the use
of this one best Idaho industry. Bl {
it is expected that another year will
see wider and better walks--and the
little folks will soon grow up, at
least the first of them, SO that they
can walk by themselves. This is
of these misfortunes that
time will cure without any assist
ance or suggestion.

Some OF the finest lands on any
of the segregations will be included
in this higher-price schedule The
opinion of competent orchardists is
almost invariable that this will be
a great winter apple section. At the
Spokane apple exposition the great
marvel on the grounds was the fact
that such apples as were shown,
grown on the Big and Little Wood
rivers under the Idaho Irrigation
Co. segregations, could be raised on
lands under $50 to $500 per acre
for the raw land Most sections do
not have such possibilities, though
their land were sold for $1,000 per
acre. The facts that some of the
land has here sold for $35 and $50
an acre, does not diminish the fact
that the raw land is worth two or
three or five times as much, based
on the scale of values elsew ere
The land that is for the reasons as
signed, the most unattractive to the
casual observer, has the real possi-
bilities for the greatest excellence;
and in view of all the conditions, ad
cost of preparing it, and the
square deal' that ought to give
even a capitalist an honest chance
to make his investment pay,l it looks
like very fair proposition to raise
the price.

TRAIN LOAD OF APPLES.
Idaho's Prize Fruit CaptuIig Market
In Big Eastern Cities.

A train load, Al cars, of "big red
apples'' left Payette few days ago,
consigned to the Chicago and New
York markets. 1t was a specianlly
selected lot of fruit and the way thu
epicurean metropolitan markets will
take to those rosy beauties will be
a real revelation to the average on
locker. There are several hundred
thousand Idahoans who have not yet
realized what apples can do for the
state. Not so very long ago, the
the Recorder editor was down in the
Hagerman valley, one of the finest
frit prospects in the whole West, in
quuiring about a certain piece of
land "Aw. it amt good for moth
in but fruit was the disgusted com
ment of one old-timer, whose life
had been spent in wild but not
wealth by the bucking broncho and
noticeably successful pursuit after
range steer route. He could have
slept in a goose hair bed every night
in the year, worn diamonds or at
least near diamonds the size of ha-
eel nuts, and have bank roll that
would choke a COW, ahd have bath
house and electric lights and orien-
tai rugs even in the stable, had he
seen a few years ago what fruit was
worth and worked as hard in the
orchard as he did on the range.
All along the Snake river, in all T
the promising fruit sections---and it
is all promising, wherever there is a
single acre of good soil that can be
watered---there is being a great stir
over orchards There used to be
good deal of placer gold mining on
tho river and some of the gravel
bars have turned OF good lot OF
gold. But there is probably not
single gold bar on the Snake, that
has paid as much money for mining
a it would have paid for good or

away from the roar of the river,
lat is likely to prove as good for
Iruit as the valley lands. The other

State Shows Gains.

WashingtOn) amendment from the
supreme head OF the census bureau
Boise has increased f9f per cent in
ten years That is a very comfort
able growth for any one.
Every county in the state shows
an increase. Some of them, howev-
er, are qretty small; Owyhee has a
gain of only 6.5 per cent, and Bear
Lake is only 90 per cent better off
than in 1900. Twin Falls has no re-
cord in 1900, nor has Bonner, as
timethe former now has 13,543, and
both have been created since that
the latter 1858. 1t is probable
that the territory embraced within
Twin Falls county has increased
even more rapidly than has Lincoln
county--but there are no figures to
prove it. Canyon county is second
to Ada in present population, hav-
ing %, 1928 as compared with 29,088,
centage of growth, having 237.6 per
cents more people than ten years
ago. Ada is next, with 151; then
Fremont with 1879, Bingham with
1913, Fremont 122, and Elmore with
109 per cent increase All the 9TH
ers fall below 100 per cent, the av-
erage gain for the state
But Lincoln county is the star of
them all. That's where we hve---ge
that?
By the way, there is reason 1t
may be that you are somewhat fami
lar with the theory and practice of
irrigation, which means tia take the
surplus water from where it is and
isn't needed, to some other place
where it isn't and is needed despe
ately bad, and using it to raise ere
with. Why, do you know, within
the last three years, more than 40C
900 acres of land have been made
to irrigation in Lincoln
county; and the water is now ready
for every acre of that land. Quite
a patch, isn't it? Until you started
in to figure it out, perhaps you'd
hardly guess just what that much
land of that quality would produce.
But it would be an explanation of
Lincoln county's gain of 610 per
cent in population and the even
more marvellous gain in valuation as
these lands are patented and devel-
oped.

GET COAL If YOU CAN.
Hard Winter Would See Disastrous
Fuel Famine.

you haven t coal on hand for a
bad spell of weather, you had better
try and get it, at once. The coal
sitatiuon is very bad; many if not
all of the dealers who stored all
the coal they cold uget early in the
season, have been unable to keep
enough coal coming to meet the cur
rent demand and have had to take
coal from stock to meet the daily
demand. AS result, there is very
little coal stored by the dealers, and
a month or two of really hard win
ter would bring about real coal
famine. Perhaps it would help some
to so swamp the dealers with orders
that they might get larger proper

Perhaps you have read and mar
veled at thestories of Jack and the
Magic Bean Stalk; at the Argonauts
tales of gold cities that grew up III
single night; of the oil-well craze
that has at various times and places
worked miracles of growth?
And perhaps you didn't believe a
word of them?
Yet the census of Idaho tells al
n ost as wonderful a story, in the
& .owth of Lincoln county; this coun
ty right here of which you are a
part.
For according to the figures, Lin
coin county has grown from popu-
tion of 1884 in 1900, to 1876 in
1910 "a gain of Clio per cent in one
decade.
And it isn't a hot-house growth,
a mining stampede that will die
quickly as it began, a get-rich-quick-
and-fly-away initiation of any kind.
No indeed; just growed, and stayed
growed, like a tree or ariver bar
that always gathers and gives away
nothing
The state as a whole has Jared
well at the hands of the census TAX
er. There is a gain of approximately
100 per cent for the entire state,
which is perhaps the largest gain of
any of the states The present pop
ulation is given as 325. .594,. 1t may
be enough to bring Idaho another
congressman when the new appor-
tionment bill is passed. There are
but few other states in the Union
where the actual gain has been so
large and probably none with so
large a percentage of gain.
1t doesn't really harm the state,
but it is a matter for quite general
regret that the census cuts Boise off
the map with only 1883 souls---it
is assumed for enumeration purposes
THAT all are souls, though there be
disappointed politicians who dou
it. The state census supervisor had
more than $4,000 on his good book
for Boise, but the jealous Washing
ton bureau cut the city down about
to what he thought they ought to
have in far-off western community

ing to a certainty with those who
have watched the growth Of Boise,

IT'S EASILY WORTH s75.
Company Asks Raise In Price for
Lands Still UnsoId.


Lands Still Unsold.
The Idaho Irrigation Company las
week appeared before the state land
board to ask for a raise in the SELF
ing price of the company lands still
unsold The raise asked for is to
SIS per acre fort open Carey Act
lands, and S65 an acre for the state
lands included within the various
segregations.
The company shows to the land
board that while the various segre-
cations cover 10000 acres, there
will not be nearly that much land
actually gable---only about rs per
cent of it, in fact AS the cost of
the storage and distribution system
is approximately the same as if all
the land were salable, the company
faces a pretty hard condition in not
being able to market as much land
as had been expected.
The land has been pretty well
gone over, yet there is approximate
ly 10000 acres of land still for sale
as original entry. Most of this is
in small tracts, 40 or 80 acres, and
not little OF it hasi float rock to
be picked Off To put it into salable
condition, the company proposes to
remove the loose rock, level off the
offending hummocks that marke ir-
rigation difficult, and put the land
on a par with the best OF the land
already taken. A more expensive
water distribution system will be re-
quired to reach all these isolated |
tracts, and this tii toe enc ef the
reasons for asking an increase.
AS to the real value of the land,
the company rightfully argues that
any of it is worth 500 an acre for
farming purposes. The man who by
careful farming cannot make any OF
the land in this section pay his time
and the interest on more than 500 I
an acre, is not a farmer. AS the 7
company proposes to put the land
on par with the best of the, other
lands around, which even now sell
at good bonus amounting III some F
cases to that increased price, it is
not an unfair proposition. The set
tier who should buy some of these
toughest tracts as they now are, is

Presidents S Message
Congress Meets for Short Session, and
Hears Taft's Long Statement of
National Conditions.

Congress met in Washington, the
first of the week, for the short term
of a little less than three months
left to the present members.
This is the last of the republican
congress, until time rolls around to
give them another chance at the
polls. 1t is a very short time to do
all the things yet undone in the re-
publican program. The new con-
gress comes in in March, with such
a host of democrats to take the
places of the discarded republicans,
that Washington will look like a for
eign country, with almost every one
a stranger.
the chief of the democratic hosts,
who will probably sccueed Cannon
in the chair, walked down the aisle
If the house together, cheered as
if they were champion football he
foes or pugilists. Cannon has only
4 few more weeks of political life,
and then it's back to the farm for
aim.
Little has been done in the way
of legislation; the chief event was
the hearing of President Taft's mes
sage. This was quite a feat in pen
manship, for it contains more words
than any other messaget of recent
years. 1t covers almost three 7-col-
umn newspaper pages, and offers
lot more suggestions than congress
can possibly take up this session.
And he promises to send them an
other one before they can get away.
The messgae does not deal with
things as they are---with red-hot
democratic majority--but as they
should be, with a republican major
ity that would probably listen to the
words of advice. 1t is a, sober, con-
scientious document, worthy of any
president and full of good advice,
