FOUND HIS LOST FATHER
Young Man Comes to Locate in Black
foot, Finds His Father Who Had
Been Lost for Is Years

This week young man came to
Blackfoot looking for location
for repair shop for auto
mobiles, and decided to locate. While
waiting for train to go to Salt Lake
for stock of goods, he was intro
duced to the editor of the Republic
can, who repeated his name, Priest
ly," and said, I'VE have another Mr..
Priestly here Is he a relative of
yours?"
The stranger replied, mot that I
know of; who is he?"
why, he is much older man
than you, short and heavy like your
self, but he speaks with foreign ac-
cent. W. w. Priestly?"
why that's my father" said the
stranger. II haven't seen him for
eighteen years, and he has been re-
ported dead. Are you sure he is
still here?"
,'Oh, yes. He was IN my office less
than an hour ago. He is the sexton
at our cemetery, and think he has
just gone up to his cottage"
The young man went Immediately
to the place, and after few hours
father and son appeared at the Com
mercil club rooms. both smiling and
happy. They had identified them
selves to each other, looked into each
others faces and read the proof by
family resemblance and the life
light; had reviewed the eighteen
years of separation, with it's changes,
and the father had learned of the
passing of the mother to the Great
Beyond. But these matters are their
private concern, and the men seated
about in the big rockers who knew
of the finding, read enough in the
happy countenances of the two men,
to know that all was well,-as we'll as
could be, after eighteen years had
slipped away from them.

FARMERS MILLING 90. MEETS
Blackfoot Company Has Greatly Ben
Gifted the Farmers and Stock
Holders of the County

There was special meeting of the
stockholders of the Blackfoot Farm
ers' Milling company last Monday at
the Commercial club rooms and about
two thirds of the stock was represen-
ted The company was organized
last spring, about hundred farmers
taking stock, most of them subscrib-
ing for one share each, of one hun
dred dollars, the amount being limit
ed to ten shares that any
individual might take.
The secretary's report showed that
at the inception of the new company
they were heavily in debt, and that
the profits of the seasons business
had greatly reduced the indebtedness.
During the session it was turned in
to an experience meeting and diff
ferent ones spoke on the benefits they
had received by reason of being
stockholders, and these talks indi-
Gated that the stockholders were well
satisfied with what had been done.
A number expressed a desire to take
more stock If it could still be had at
par, and resolution was adopted,
asking the directors to continue to
sell it, at par for the rest of the
month of February, giving new pur-
chasers the benefits of the undivided
profits.
The directors asked the stockhold-
ers to ratify change in the bylaws,
permitting the directors meetings to
be held on the 9Th of each month
instead of the second, but this was
opposed by Mr.. Robert of Rigby, and
the amendment was not made.
A number of the farmers express
ed their appreciation of being furn-
ished the free use of the club rooms
for their meetings. and some express
ed determination to join the club
as soon as they could sell something
to get the ten dollars membership

company held their annual meeting
of stockholders. About dozen per-
sons were present, representing about
two thirds of the stock.
Manager w. r. Jones reported a
large amount of work done on the
claims and in building roads to the
property. ASbond was given ON the
mine some time ago for fifty thou
sand dollars, and half of this amount
is to be paid next October, and half
in October 1911.
Most of the stock when sold was
transferred at five and ten cents a
share, and Mr. Jones, who has been
in touch with developments all the
time stated that he would not take
twenty-five cents per share for his,
SO good were the indications for reali-
zing more on the investment.

SPECIAL GRANTS EXHAUSTED
No Relief in Sight Says Register
Church From Situation Result
ing From Recent Opinion
Boise Statesman

Boise Statesman
The state of Idaho has no acreage
under it's special land grants avail
able for substitution as base in lieu
of sections 16 and So which the SUI
preme court of the state has de-
clared cannot be legally used for that
purpose, according to a declaration
made yesterday by Register M. l.
Church of the state land board. IT
wish to say he stated, Sin view of
reports which have been published
to the effect that the state could avoid
the loss of any of the Marble Creek
lands by substituting special land
grants that all special grants have
been exhausted. There is no land
to the states credit which would be
available for that purpose.
Register Church made this asser
ton in reply to published state
ment made several days ago by a
prominent local attorney who asser-
ted that the state could still protect
its holdings.
~ IF sections 16 and SO relinquished
by the state were not a valid base
for the lieu selections made" the at
torney stated, "the state has a right
to substitute other base; for in
stance, select the land as a part of
grants which have not been exhaus-
ted. This Is clearly indicated by the
language of the opinion and even
suggested. by the court"
State Cannot Avail Itself
Register Church does not deny that
the court suggests such remedy
but asserts that the state is not in
position to avail itself of the propo-
sition propounded by the opinion.
The condition of the various grants
as set forth in the recent report of
the state land department is shown
by tabulated statement, showing
the grants practically exhausted, as
follows:

WESTERN POTATO GROWERS
CONTINUED from page 81

8 pounds to the hill, this would make
total of 104,544 pounds to the acre.
This is 1855 pounds less than a
field crop of potatoes raised by the
potato wizard of Scotland, the Earl
of Rosebery, who last year grew 1884,
200 pounds per acre total crop, with
105,280 pounds of marke able pota-
toes over n Inch screen. Some
day potato growers may be expected
to approximate this phenomenal yield
in Colorado, as the conditions of eli
mate, soil, heat, and application of
moisture are much nearer ideal for
potato production than in any part
of Scotland.
Conclusion
There is no line of farming in the
irrigated districts that gives such
marvellous profits as that of scientific
potato production.
With scientific knowledge which
can be acquired by experiments in
supplying perfectly balanced plant
food and maintaining soil fertility,
the scientific principles of which are
similar to those used by every sue
cessful breeder in feeding and fitting
prize winning stock; and with the
proper proportions of plant foods
phosphates, nitrogen, and potash--in
the soil as found in many parts of
the West; and by the use of clover
and alfalfa, there is no reason for
those who contemplate engaging in
the potato industry to fear the out
come.
Too much stress can not be put
upon the value and Importance of
live stock in keeping up favorable
soil conditions, as no country now
known has been continuously success
full in crop production withore the use
of manures from the feedin~ If for
age and grain crops:
Five Cents Pound
Potatoes can be sold for cents a
pound in New York City, the very
best fancy potatoes, | mean. AS it
is, no one can buy a good potato in
a New York hotel at 81 each today.
About $50 potatoes othe 100-pound
sack is the right size, and they must
be smooth and with few eyes. other
wise the loss in preparing them for
the table is as high as one-third. 1t
is possible to raise 1000 bushels of
potatoes per acre in Utah and Idaho
and get fancy prices for them. A
good potato farm will yield more
money for the capital and work in
vested than any other kind of farm
ing.
Mr.. Edgerton Says
H. l.. Edgerton, one of the best au-
thorities on the tuber in the United
States, says Like gets like, and you
must plant good seed Plant small
potatoes and you get small potatoes.
Plant the best potatoes you have or
can get. Do not sell them. Plant
them The potatoe must be consid-
cred from the standpoint of the hill,
not the individual potato. This is
where so many men fail. The hill is
the unit of selection. Remember that,
for it is the most important thing in
potato raising. Potatoes need cool
nights, no matter how hot it is dur
ing the day."
