AN AID SENSE BALLAD

It used to be SO easy in the happy days
Of yore,
For the man who kept grocery or a
modest dry goods store,
To sit out in front and whittle and talk
politics or crops,
For the folks who did the buying then,
took pains to find the shops.
But things are very different in these
modern business days
Keeping store is very different; people,
too, have different ways
And the man who is in business must let
people understand
What he sells and where he sells it if he
doesn't want to strand.
He must tell folks what he's doing-tell
them every blessed day
Tell them candidly and clearly, in a
reasonable way,
What he has to sell, his prices, the loca-
ton Of bis store
For they quite got over buying as they
did in days of yore-Ex.

RENEWED ACTIVITY ON
THE BRUNEAV |

Complete and detailed filings were made
in the United States Land office Saturday
afternoon for an additional 40, 900 acres
Of land to the $50, 1000 acres previously
filed on and for 14O miles Of canal for the
mammoth Bruneau-Twin Falls irrigation
project located west of the present Twin
Falls tract on the south side of the Snake
river and which extends almost from a
point just west Of Buhl to Grandview in
western Idaho. The filing is the largest
one for any individual irrigation project
in the history Of the United States land
Office, it is said
The maps and charts Of the project in
blue print are now record of the United
States land Office in this city and so far
as the filings for the promotion and event.
ual irrigation Of the project is concerned
those behind it, or the capitalists repre-
senting the Twin Falls Land & Water
company, are through with the land Of
fee
Some idea Of the magnitude Of this
great project can be secured from the fact
that the plans show that approximately
rs miles of the 100 miles of canal will be
22O feet wide at the bottom. At that ra-
ito the canal at the surface of the ground
or from tip to tip of the embankment will
be over 200 feet wide, great river bed
in fact, that will be constructed over this
vast area Of land which is to furnish
homes for thousands of future residents
Of arid southern Idaho. Through these
canals will pass every second 10, 900 cubic
feet of water, volume sufficient to be
estimated as the normal flow of big
river.
1t was discovered after surveying the
land to be included in the project and
after mapping out the right Of way Of the
canal chat there was complete block of
10000 acres Of ground which heretofore
had been overlooked that could be filed
upon. Accordingly this was appropri-
ated and will be included in the segraga-
ton. Eventually it is expected that the
project will contain 800, 900 acres of land,
the biggest project of its kind in the

Present Plan of Selling State
, Land Will Take Long Time

Under the prevailing system Of public
land sales it will take the state of Idaho
just l76 years to get rid Of the available
land Of this state, according to calcula-
tions made by Register N. Jenness OF the
Idaho land bureau.
Mr.. Jenness believes that system Of
sales wherein the investor from outside
the state could be placed on an equal
footing with the native of the state,
would be beneficial to Idaho,
As the constitution provides at present,
the state can dispose of but % section of
land year, and these at public sales.
Hundreds of letters are sent to the land
board officials from outside the state every
week, wherein inquiries are made regard
ing the dates Of disposal Of public lands,
and no definite information can be given.
Few men who have very limited capi-
tai can afford to come to Boise and wait
here until the sale is announced, /" said
Mr.. Jenness yesterday afternoon. eff
there were some system whereby the
lands could be appraised SO that the citi.
zen of Iowa, in reply to his letter, could
be informed that there are such-and-such
lands in this state which sell at such-and-
such figure, there would be a greater
influx OF settlers to Idaho and a more
rapid filling up Of the country with de-
sirable citizens.
''The dates OF the sales, Of course, are
announced in advance, but the eastern
farmer who comes out and remains here
for several days, and then, at the sale, is
not fortunate enough to be able to OBJ
tain the land, is hardly good advertiser
for the state of Idaho when he returns
home.
Ot course this ruling, as now prevail
ing, was framed to do away with com
bine getting in its work, but the present
ruling seems to me to give the monopoly
to the crowd about the districts wherein
the lands are for sale. "
The next public sale Of lands will prob
ably take place on December %, and
will include property in Idaho County.
Sale of lands in Canyon county will
take place shortly afterward. .-Ex.

The Mutiny of Congress-

Congress will meet on Monday next.
1t will have but three months of life and
then the Democrats will, in the new Con-
gress, have control of the House, while
their power in the Senate will be materi-
ally strengthened. Considering the bit
terness between the two sections Of Re-
publicans, and the natural opposition of
the Democrats to any measure which the
Republicans are liable to propose, we
doubt whether much Of good will be ac-
complished in the short session. The
Democrats will be the more determided
by the knowledge that after the 4th Of
March they will have full control in the
lower house. At the same time the Re-
publicans ought to keep in mind that if
there is any special legislation which they
want to see passed, it will have to be pas
sed at this session or indefinitely post :
poned. That fact ought to call up thei r
party loyalty and all their patriotism
Very much will depend upon the presi :
dent. If he is as non-assertive as he wa s
last winter and spring, not much can be
done. If he could take the initiative and
in ringing words point out to the Repub-
lican majority what, in his judgment,
should be done, it would profoundly inn :
press the majority. We hope the tariff
commission win have ready some amend
ments to the present law, with the figures
added of the effects of the present law i.
Such amendments might be accepted
without prolonged debate.

on by the thought that if anything for at

MUST SPRAY OFTENER
Oregon Hop Grower Urges Others to
Help Preserve Good Name.

That it is becoming necessary to
spray Oregon hops in raising a crop
and that this will continue to be so is
the burden of letter which Joseph
Harris, a prominent local hop dealer,
has sent out to about rs growers with
whom he is connected. Harris declares
that his firms in the East are coming
out into the open against oregon hops,
not only for their quality, but because
they assert the picking is so poor as
to make them practically unstable in
many cases. The letter which Harris
has been sending out contains some
valuable information on spraying, and
follows:
while travelling through the coun-
try have noticed that vermin had
made its appearance. / believe from
now on IL will be impossible to raise
a crop OF hops in Oregon without thor
oughly spraying. as II is done in other
countries.
From now on II will not do tor the
growers to depend upon weather con-
ditions; the vermin is here. and here
to stay. Had the last hop picking sea-
son not been an extremely favorable
one. the crop would have been lost
Early spraying will prevent mould.
II spraying is postponed. the best one
can produce is mouldy hops. which are
almost unstable at any price. as has
been demonstrated this year There
are many hops OF last years crop un-
sold in oregon. which are practically
worthless so far as brewing qualities
are concerned.
The best results from spraying are
by beginning the first spraying about
July S, and the second spraying the
latter part Of July.
Sales OF Oregon hops In the United
States and England this year have
been much smaller than would have
been the case had the quality been up
TO the standard. oregon hops sold
freely in past years. mainly on account
of their attractive appearance. and II
the growers want 10 stay In the busi-
ness and keep up the reputation OF
oregon hops. Il is absolutely necessary
to give more care and attention to
quality and picking"
