SURVEYORS ON CRANE
CREEK
Electric Railroad Proposed
to Run from Council
to'Emmett

As outlined by a prominent bus
mess man OF Council, the proposed
interurban will have its northern
terminus at PayeIte Lakes, will fol-
low the valley to Council, thence
through a pass in the mountains to
Crane creek, thence down that
stream and Willow creek to ]. H.
Knees farm, thence in a southerly
and westerly direction 10 BisseIl
creek, across the bench to this city.
From here, a line will be built to
Caldwell and another to Boise. AS
our informant enthusiastically told
us his story and eloquently dilated
upon the advantages of such a rail
road, we smiled incredulously, but
he was very emphatic in declaring
that the road was no hot air pro-
position. He stated that surveyors
had been in the field for some time
and their preliminary survey had
satisfied the promoters that such
a route was feasible.

RATES ARE REDUCED
Electric Lights and Power
Will be Much Cheaper

AS a result of a conference of
Mayor E. NJ. Reilly with General
Manager Markhus of the Idaho-Ore-
gon Light & Power Co. in regard
to the rates charged Emmett con-
sumers of light and power. very ma
terial reductions have been agreed
upon which will go into effect next
month. The same rates charged
BJ:se patrons will be charged in EN-
nett.
The reduction in rates will mean
an annual saving of several thou
sand dollars to Emmett people for
both light and power. On lights,
the percentage of reduction is from
20 to 45 per cent, and on power from
10 to 20 per cent. For instance,
the old rate for lights is 15 cents
flat per X. w. hour Under the
new rate, the maximum charge up

the Weyerhauser people through the
Payette Lumber company, which as
sumes control. The contract the COM
pany has with the state expires with
in a comparatively few years and
during that period the timber must
be removed or it will be a loss to
the syndicate. The immediate con-
struCtion of a railroad, therefore.
into the valley and through the tim
Der belt, will make it possible for
the company to remove the stand
ing timber at a very rapid rate. In
order to accomplish this a steam
line must be installed as quickly as
possible and it is believed that the
visit of Mr.. Weyerhauser in this
section at this time indicates that
he is prepared to take the necess-
airy steps. 1t was stated Tuesday
that at a recent conference of re-
presentatiyes of the Weyerhausers
and the Payette Lumber company.
ii was virtually decided to furnish
the capital with which to construct |
the extension of the Idaho North |
ern into the Long Valley country |
and through the timber belt. No
official announcement has ever been |
made that this course will be follow |
ed. although it is reported an un-
was reached that one
would be forthcoming within the
next few months. IL is claimed by
railroad men that once Roseberry

The man whose bill in previous
months has run up to 50, viii next
month pay about s11 for the same
amount of current. For power, the
reduction will be in pretty much the
same degree. The city's bill for
power at the pumping station will
also be effected The scent rate
which has heretofore obtained will
be cents, with a sliding scale for
larger consumption of current which
will be considerable saving of ex-
pense in operating the waterworks

Emmett Attorney Mentioned.

Attorney Finley Monroe of EN-

as a likely Republican candidate
for District Judge. Mr.. Monroe
would make strong candidate. He
is well known throughout the Dis
trict;is lawyer of great experience
and ability; is a man of good char
acter; is a Republican and no mis-
take about it and would run well.
We can see no reason why the Re-

WILL BUILD new ROAD
TO OLA
First Class Highway to be
Built Along Squaw Creek
from Sweet.

Realizing the Importance of good
roads and determined to take ad-
vantage OF the strong sentimentthat
peryades that rich and prosperous
agricultural section. the Squaw creek
valley has inaugurated good roads
campaign OF such magnitude as
would be a credit TO communities
many times more populous and
wealthy. The main purpose OF this
campaign is the construction of
first class road along Squaw creek t.
Ola, a distance of 30 miles, at an
estimated expenditure of $4,000.
This action was decided upon Sat
urday night at Ola. at a joint meet
ing of the Sweet Commercial club,
citizens OF Ola and farmers in the
Squaw creek valley. BY unanimous
and enthusiastic vote it was decided
to organize the Squaw creek country
between Ola and Sweet into good
roads district and issue bonds suffi-
cient to build the proposed road,
and committees were appointed to
circulate petitions.
The present road is one of the
worst in the upper country and
winter or summer is dreaded by
travellers. The proposed new route
follows the creek and is a water
grade nearly the entire distance. The
cost of construction will
be through the two or three canyons
along the stream.

CANNING FACTORY IN
OPERATION
Machinery Running Smooth

Peas Being Canned.

After a week of more OF less eI-
perimenting and initiating a force
of inexperienced hands, the canning
factory is running full blast and
plant impresses one with the i'm
portance and value of this new in
ddstry to this valley, and the possi-
bilities for expansion and growth
which is open to such an institution.
The executive ability and experience
of Mr.. Cloud is also apparent and
betokens the success of the indus
try.
The rapid manner in which the
pea on the vine passes from its raw
raw state to the edible finished pro-
duct in the can, and the scrupulous
care taken to remove every particle
of dirt and refuse is revelation.
The vines are pulled from the fields
where they are grown and hauled
in hay racks. From the wagon they
are fed direct into what is known
as the pea yiner, in much the same
manner as wheat is fed into a
thresher. Here the peas are taken
from the pod without being mash
ed or split and gathered in buckets.
They are then run through a re-
volving washing machine and every
particle of dirt removed. This ma
chine is cylindrical in form with the
outside made of a wire mesh through
which water strains. A constant
stream of pure water is constantly |
poured from a perforated pipe onto |
the peas. Then the peas are grad |

separated in the second division,

not possess the nutriment that the

cAfter grading, the peas are again
washed, first in cold water, then
in boiling water. The last process
slightly cooks the peas and at the
same time removes the outer COW
ering, which is composed principally
of starch. They are then put into
cans, being filled about three-fourth
full The balance of the can is
filled with boiling liquid compos-
ed of salt and sugar. The cans are
then taken to the soldering machine
and the lids put on This completes
