hear lectures on the improved

The number of third grades is a
little higher than the number of
higher grades on account of the new
certifcation law. This law provides
that no applicant can receive higher
than third grade without first hav-
ing had at least eight months Of ex-
perience in teaching. A few of those
receiving third grades hold enough
or nearly enough credits for higher
grade.

If every business man in our town
could do business on a strictly cash
system it would be blessing to us
all. If we all had to pay cash we
would learn to live within our means.
1t would save business men the ex-

bad debts all of which some one has
to pay for. If our town could grad

tenn it would be better for us all.

The price of coal has been
reduced 80 cents a ton in
Salt Lake and 81 a ton in
Boise, but as yet no reduction
has been announced for
Montpelier. However, it was
only through the united and
vigorous efforts upon the part
Of the commercial clubs of the
two cities named that reduc-
tions were secured there,
which leads us to suggest
that the Montpelier CONNER
cial club might bring about a
reduction here if it would
only get busy.
1t certainly seems unrea-
sonable that the people of
this valley, living within IS
miles Of the great coal fields
Of Wyoming, should have to
pay So. so a ton for this fuel.
We believe that d reduction
Of from so cents to 81 a ton
can be secured if we go after
it, bat there is just one way
to get it and that is, for the
Commercial club to go after
it with hammer and tongs.
The question should be taken
up at once so that if a reduc-
ton is secured the people
will secure some benefit from
it vet this winter.

Divide

Split the big farm into little

prove and cooperate.
There is no mistake about
it. Great farms are a hurt
to the community in the long
run. The experience OF
ancient Italy, where Livy,
the historian declared that
they had ruined the country
and of modern Illinois, where
such enormous estates as the
Scnlly farms, rackrented the
tenants and impoverished the
lands demonstrates the truth
of the contention. So does
the experience of France,
where small farms prevail and
rural prosperity abounds, and
the fertility of the soil has
been conserved.
The experience of Denmark
and of our southern states
proves that intensified farm
ing and diversified farming
are far more profitable than
cultivating a single staple.
The small highly cultivated
farm of Denmark have in

peasants far beyond what it
was when they raised chiefly
wheat. The fruit and veg

made proportionately as much
money for the small grower
as the orange grove or the

farmer.

WILL ORGANIZE HERE.
Mr.. ]. E. Haws Securing Fraternal
Brotherhood Charter List

State Manager Dempster of The
Fraternal Brotherhood, spent Friday
and Saturday in Montpelier with the
local organizer of that company, J.
f. Haws, who is busy securing a
charter list here.
Mr.. Haws is meeting with success
in securing members and he will pro-
badly be ready to institute a lodge
here early next month, when some
of the officers and escort teams from
Pocatello, Idaho Falls and Boise will
assist in the work of instituting the
lodge.
The Fraternal Brotherhood is an
insurance society with headquarters
in Los Angeles and it is rapidly ex-
tending over the middle western
states and is growing very fast in
Idaho, where lodges have been organ
lied in all the principal cities. State
Manager Dempster has force of
twenty men and women at work in
this state organizing lodges and build
ing up old ones and he seems conf
dent that Idaho will soon be a strong
hold of his society.
This is one of the few fraternal
orders admitting men and women in
to the same lodges on an equal foot
ing, which probably accounts for it's
great popularity in social way. Tt
has also proven exceedingly popular
in railroad and mining towns on ac-
count of its paying accident, total
disability and old age benefits in adj
dition to regular life insurance.
While no definite date has been set
for instituting the lodge it will proba-
bly, be within the next two week.

Montpelier, Idaho, Dec. 80, 1910

While Montpelier has not
made any great strides dur
ing the year which is just
drawing to a close, there has
been a number Of substantial
improvements made. Three
new business blocks have
been erected The Vincent
Furniture Cos store, G. c.
Gray's bank building and an
addition to the Hotel Bur
goyne block. The Sidney
Stevens Co. has also complet-
ed the foundation for their
mammoth implement house,
which will be erected early
next year. A half dozen or
more substantial residences
have been erected, improve
ments made about many
others, cement sidewalks
have been constructed and
in other ways the town has
shown a conservative growth.
What the new year has in
store for Montpelier and
Beaf Lake county, we can
only conjecture; but there is
every reason to believe that
greater advancement will be
made than has been for some
years past. AS a result of
the advertising literature,
which will shortly be distrib-
uted throughout the east,
there is no doubt but what
many home-seekers will visit
this section early in the
spring, some Of whom will be
sure to cast their lot in this
beautiful and fertile valley.
The construction of the
railroad to Paris, and posi-
bly, beyond, will result in
putting new life intolthe west
side of the valley and assist
materially in the up-building
of the county.
With a section so well
adapted as this is for the
dairy business, dry farming,
truck gardening and other
lines of agriculture, there is
no reason in the world why
this valley should not produce
many times the wealth that it
does, and we believe that the
day is near at.hand when the
larger ranches of the county
will be divided and the same
number of acres will be made
to produce many times what
they now do.
Let US all resolve to boost
for Bear Lake county during
the coming year; let us en-
courage immigration and by
SO doing we will build up a
larger and better Montpelier,
which is now and always will
be the commercial center OF
the county.
