MonopIane Artist Now in Boise With

itors to the state fair this year will
be given an opportunity to witness
flights of the Observation-Disclosures
chine" which made its first flight
during the present season at Ia
coma and appeared subsequently at
the Walla Walla fair. In addition to
witnessing a flight every day the
machine will also be on exhibition an
the mechanism explained to visitors.
The bird men and their flights
have been taking up considerable
space in the newspapers and maga-
zines recently and every day we
read of longer. higher or faster
flight by some man and of a record
being broken. In view of the inter-
est in such matters the fair officials
are to be congratulated in securing
an up to date attraction of this kind
for the people of the state. Those
who have been reading the interest
ing articles in many papers and mag
azines recently about aerial flights
and have been able to form but a
vague idea of a machine or how they
are handled will be interested to
great extent in this feature of the
state fair this year and the mono
plane will undoubtedly prove one of
the star ATTRACTIONS of the fair.

CAR LOAD EXHIBIT
At COUNCIL BLUFFS
Committee Collecting Car Load Ex-
hibit of Apples for Council Bluffs
Show Meeting With Good Sue
cess.

John E. Stoufer, Will Wells and
L. E. Peterson, the Commercial club
committee having in charge the
collecting of a car load of apples
for ,he National Horticultural Show
to ~ leld at Council Bluffs early
in ! ovember, are meeting with fine
. success in the collection of the car
load of fruit and while all the grow
ers have not been seen the follow
ing have pledged fruit for that occa-
sion and will see that their share OF
the contribution is good fancy stuff,
the kind that attracts attention and
wins prizes:
C. H. Lanfear, 27 boxes; Chas.
Hengeler, so; A. C. Patheal, SO; J..
F. zerwas, 20; E. T. Bowman, 10;
Capt J. H. Shawhan, so; C. W..
Young, p; Harry T. Lewis, 25;
Fred Colburn, 20; George Windle, %;
H. A. Kaufman, 25; J. Hostettler,
So; Sargent & Burnett, SO; Smith
Bros, As.
A large number of the growers have
not yet been seen but as there are
already close to 500 boxes pledged it
is evident that a full car can be Sc
cured
The plan is to ship the car load
to Council Bluffs within the next
two or three weeks and put the
same on cold storage with the Bloom
er Ice Company, storage concern
that will look after this end of the
program gratis. A committee will
then be sent to Council Bluffs at the
time of the show to look after the
exhibit and on the close of the
show the apples will be sold to the
highest bidder and after the expens-
SNof handling the same are paid the
Badnce will be pro-rated and divided
among those sending the fruit. An
effort is being made to secure free
Transportation for the exhibit to
Council Bluffs which will probably be
effected and as Payette Valley fruit
is always in the front rank when it
comes to parceling out the blue rib |
bons and will be sure to be in evil
dence as prize winning stuff, the
price secured per box when the fruit
is sold should be and will no doubt
prove to be very fancy one.
The committee requests that any
one having any fruit they desire to
send in this car to notify them and
they will arrange for its care.

EXCURSION TO PAYETTE.

The first excursion on the Payette
Valley Extension railroad was run
from Emmett to Payette, last Thurs
day. Over 100 of our people took ad-
vantage of the opportunity to visit
our sister city and to see the or
chards of the valley, loaded with
ripened fruit, a sight that cannot be
equaled in any country.
The Payette people has a fine dis
play of fruit, grains, grasses, poultry,
etc. The fruit especially was feast
for the eyes.
In the afternoon the Emmettites
took in the races, which were very
good, also the cowboy relay race.
The big carnival company, who
were here a few days ago, were in
town and also helped to make things
lively.
A pear grown by Ed Vahlberg, of
this city, and entered by Mr.. Rob
erts, of Payette, won first premium
among the plate exhibits. 1t was of
the Flemish variety and was the
source of much comment by the
visitors because of its immense
size.
The excursion train arrived home a
I tile after nine o'clock and all were
well pleased with the trip and voted
the new railroad a regular humdinger.
