Clerks in The Great
Mail Service

The avocation Of clerk in the rail
way mail service, only short time
ago considered precarious because OF
the danger in case Of wreck, Is now
a position that carries no greater
hazard than that incurred by pas
senger, where statistics recently COM
piled show that passenger on a
railroad may ride for 200 years at
go miles an hoM without being killed.
Particularly on the lines Of the South.
ern Pacific Company is this statement
true. On the first day of July, this
year, every mail coach on the South.
ern Pacific that was not of steel con
struction was taken out of the ser
vice and today the mail clerks on the
Southern Pacific ride in safety.
In the economy of railroad manage
ment there are still number Of wood
en- mail cars used, but they are sim
ply the survival OF the fittest, and will
also soon be retired. But whenever
used in connection with steel cars,
they are attached to the rear end of
the train.
Prior to the Introduction OF the
steel mail cars the lives Of the mail
clerks were constantly endangered by
being compelled to ride in wooden
cars. directly behind the locomotive
with many hundreds of tons of heavy
cars behind them, that in case of q
wreck might have telescoped the
lighter mail cars, crushed them into
kindling wood. and then frequently
apply fire brand to the kindfing, as
has occurred at some bad wrecks.
The Southern Pacific mail clerks
are more at ease since the change has
taken place. Now they are safeguard
ed. Their cars are built of armoret
steel. Over their heads is a steel roc
to which they can cling at the firs
intimation OF a wreck and thus save
themselves from shock or at leas
minimize 1t. The construction of tn,
cars Is such that they can roll owe
| and over without danger of collapsinl
or being telescoped nor can they burn

Can We Raise Sugar Beets?

This question was brought to the at
tention OF our farmers on Tuesday, when
Mr.. job Pingree, 4 representative OF the
Amalgamated Beet Sugar Co., OF Ogden,
appeared before them al Il meeting, hur-
riedly called, at the city hall Mr.. Pin
gree was accompanied 10y ). l.. Smith, a
large farmer near Oakley, where sugar
beet raising has proved very successful,
and the two gentlemen thoroughly ex-
planned the matter and went into details
regarding the revenue to he derived from
the cultivation OF this product.
Their visit to the tract was ior the pur-
pose OF interesting the farmers here to
sign up for stipulated acreage oi the
product, in order to warrant the build
ing OF factory somewhere in the Valley
10y the Company, which proposes to put
in factory costing from S5n,UOO To
Sso,un, providing 800 acres oi beets
could be contracted inr.
The plan is feasible one, and the
sugar beet culture has proven very suc-
cessful in most eases where il has been
introduced, Us it guarantees market ior
the product before it is planted and at a
very rcmunerative figure. The only
question that arises among the farmers
is the availability OF our virgin soil ior
successful raising OF this product As i
rule what little experimenting has been
done along this line has not met with
the best OF success except on land that
has been cropped season or more,
though these experiments need not
strictly apply to sugar beets.
1t is the opinion OF Mr.. Pingrce, who
has spent II years in raising sugar beets,
that they IN he successfully grown here.
The average yield this year around
Ogden was - tons per acre, and at q
price of 500 per ton yielded Il handsome
revenue to the grower. Several oi tn,
farmers present at the meeting signi-
fled their willingness To experiment witt
small acreage the coming season, an,
the matter was left open until the mex
regular meeting of the Farmers AsSocia
ton, Saturday, Dec. 9th, when the ques
ton will be further discussed

LEFT TO DIE IN THE DESERT.

a ghastly tale comes from the
vicinity Of Richfield where a young
man was shot and left to die in the
desert, miles away from help, with
one side of his head literally torn to
pieces from the effects of a gun shot
inflicted by his pals in crime. This
trio Of desperadoes is supposed to
be the perpetrators Of the robbery at
Picabo last Wednesday night, and
their clever capture at Shoshone re-
fleets credit upon Sheriff Zugg, of
this county. One of the men was
taken to HALEY, and the other one
held at Shoshone, while the wound
ed companion lies in hospital at
Richfeld. The following dispatch
to the Statesman gives a brief out
line Of the affair:
Harry Barton is lying at the
point of death in Richfeld, his
right cheek and jawbone blown
away, and Fred Murphy and Ed.
Burke are in Jail, suspected Of both
the assault and obbery with Barton,
Of the postofiice and Fitzpatrick
Bros. store at Picabo last Wednes-
day night, when burglars secured
over $1,000 in cash, stamps and
paychecks by working the -combina-
ton Of the safe. Evidence in the
hands Of the officers leads them to
believe that Barton was shot in
row over the division of the
spoils, and that the other two left
him alone at night in the foothills
while they attempted to make their
escape. They were captured at
Shoshone, however, and one taken
to the HALEY Jail, while the other
was placed in the Lincoln county
prison to await trial.

THE GOVERNORS SPECIAL.

Probably the most gigantic adj
vertising scheme ever inauguratcd
for displaying the resources OF the
Northwest, was put into active op-
Grafton Monday Of this week, when
Il special train bearing the governors
OF ten states OF the northwest, left
st. Paul for twenty-day tour Of
the east.
This special train is the first of its
kind ever run and it is the first
time any advertising event as large
rs this has even been attempted. 1t
is already attracting the attention
of leading journals devoted to ad-
vertising as one OF the biggest stunts
ever tried, and papers throughout
the east are dcvoting a good deal of
space to this visit Of the west to the
east
This train in which the governors
will ride will also carry four exhi-
bit cars, each state to have half Il
car for showing what can be raised
in each commonwealth. Through
these cars the school children and
general public of the cities visited
will be invited to pass and look at
the exhibits. The governors will
act as guides to the parties and ex-
plain some of the advantages of liv-
ing in the west, where land is cheap
and yet productive.
Gov. Hawley Of this state is
aboard the train and will deliver
several important addresses in the
principal cities of the east.
This special is the result of zeal
Gus labor on the part Of ex-gover-
nor Brady, and the following gov.
ernors are members Of the party:
James H. Hawley, Idaho.
Oswald West, Oregon.
NJ. +. Hay, Washington.

A BIC TIME PROMISED.

Our readers should keep in mind
the session Of the State Agricultural
Short Course, Which will be held in
Jerome some time in January, the
exact date of which has not as yet
been set. Arrangements, however,
are under way for Il physical as
well as intellectual feast and it
is proposed to have a big potato
bake some day during the session,
at which time coffee and sandwich
es will also be served. To this end
the large bake oven which did SER
vice at the Hagerman opening has
been secured from the owners, Fra
zer- Moore Co., and will do service
on this occasion. This oven has a
capacity of from six to seven hun
dred potatoes, so that none need 90
hungry.
As To the meetings, it will be Ia
the interest of every farmer on the
tract to attend as many Of them as
possible, as instructors, the best the
state can secure, will be in attend
ance to instruct and impart infor-
nation on all lines of farming, fruit
growing and dairying. Those who
attended the sessions at Wendell
last winter We're more than delight
ed with the information received
While the date has not been defni.
tely fixed, it is well to keep thi.
session in mind, and in the mean
time make a note of the little per,
plexities you would like explained

EXACTLY so.

The Shoshone Journal takes Il
very sensible and practical view rel
ative to the various proceedings
that have been inaugurated between
the settlers and the irrigating COM
panies on Carey act projects
Among other things the Journal
says:
" Irrigation in Idaho is new. The
laws covering this subject are not
fully established. There is bound
To he more or less conflict OF inter
est between the settlers and pro-
noting companies and in order to
firmly establish the law, especially
in regard To Carey act projects, it
becomes necessary for suits To he
started thus throwing the interpre-
tdtion of the law within the juris-
diction of the courts. When Il
judgment or decree is finally issued
10y the supreme court of the state,
then the matter becomes final and
the law fully established. "
How much more sensible to look
al the matter in this light than to
at once raise the howl that you
are driving capital from the state
the moment the settler raises any
objections to the manner in which
his particular company is conduct
ing things. The settlers on Carey
act projects believe they have some
rights at least under the law, and
a the same is subject to various in
terpretations, il is no more than
Justice to the settler as well as the
company, that the supreme court
should be asked to pass upon it,
instead Of leaving the whole matter
To the discretion of the company
As the journal further says, 'liti-
cation is no sign of failure on the
part of either the settler or the
company, and the sooner some OF
these important questions are def
nitcly settled, the better it will he
for all parties concerned, and the

A NEW ENTERPRISE.
A Very Important Industry of Much
Interest to the North
Side Tract.

While food products OF every sort have
yielded to the progress OF modern science,
the homely spud, that has made
the North Side tract famous, is still hand
led and used in the same old antiquated
way the fathers have done it for centur-
les, and it has remained for a jerome
Food Expert to solve the problem OF
putting the potato into convenient
portable form that places it by the side
OF other up-to-date food products.
After exhaustive experiments, cover
ing period OF several years, Mr. l.. G..
Humphrey, who is operating large
ranch west OF Jerome, has perfected Il
process by which he is able to take the
500 OF water from the potato and con-
vert the latter into meal, and as this
product is thoroughly cooked in the pro-
cess, it can be prepared for the table in
1t is pronounced very fine by those
who have tried it served as mashed
creamed or fried potatoes
The significance Of this enterprise to
this tract can be realized when we re-
member that although we can produce
the finest POTATOES on earth, we are 50
far iton the large markets, and ircights
are So high, We can afford to ship only
the choicest spuds, that will command
the top prices, and this leaves an un-
usually large quantity OF discarded po-
tatoes in tine hands of the producer, run
ming from 2jGc to 400 oi the total yield.
The quality of these spids is Just as good
as the selects, but they are rejected he
cause of their i'll shape or size, and by
this process these good culls can be used
and made as valuable as the select, and
then in years of plenty, when the mar.
kets are low, Il still larger portion OF the
crop can be proitably converted to pota-
to meal, thus assuring to our producers
u certain, regular market, and thus sup
plying the missing link to the grand sue.
cess OF the Potato Industry on the Great
Nortn size tract.
This industry means so much to ON
farmers that it ought to be under theii
control, and we believe that the Cana
Users association, or lot OF our peo
pie under separate organization, shoulc
unite with Mr.. Humphrey in putting ir
Il factory here.
He desires to see good plant estab
lished here, and as the demand becomes
established for the product, locat,
branches in other localities to NEE
the growing demand ior the products.
Mr.. Humphrey also puts pumpkins
Hubbard squash, carrots, turnips an,
sweet potatoes through this process witt
great success.

The Idaho Leader seems to think
that all difficulties between the set
tiers and water companies should
be settled without the aid of a law

the companies would relent some
what in their autocratic domination

settlers ON equal grounds.

ANOTHER IDAHO WONDER

A Richfeld dispatch of recent
date says that II. f. Essley is he
coming quite in expert at the chick
en- business and for years has been
experimenting, trying to get a
breed of chickens with four legs,
and at last has succeeded and is
now preparing To book orders for
setting, for March delivery, of the
famous Essley four-legged chickens.
They are the easiest chickens to
raise that have yet beqn found, and
one queer feature about them Is
that they swim like II duck, prob
ably due to Mr., Essley being con-
nected with irrigation projects 81
long.

farmer is making a close study Of
the question Of irrigation and the
laws regulating the same, and with
the rights of the settler once estab-
