LIGHTNING STRIKES
IN COLONIA DUBLAN
Rain Prevents the Harvest
ing of Crops-Fruit Is
Plentiful.

Colonia Dublan. Mex. July 20.-Dur-
ing an electrical storm the home of
Mrs. Matte Brown was struck by
lightning, which tore big hole in the
roof
Fileman Cox, who was so severely
hurt at Janos, lived four days with one
arm amputated, all his ribs on one
side torn from his spine and otherwise
bruised and mangled. His, body was
brought to Dublan for burial, and the
funeral services held here. He leaves
a wife and six small children, the
youngest being only three days old.
The rains have been so copious and
constant that the farmers have not
been able to plant their second crop
Many acres are waiting to be seeded
to lucern, beans. squash and potatoes.
Some Of the farmers have not been able
to thresh their wheat. When 1t is dry
enough the thresher and the headers go
to the fled and cut and thresh at the
same time. But they are not able to
work more than a few hours before
the rains stop them.
There is enough fruit in Porter's ar
chard alone to supply the whole of
Dublan, and 1t is Of an excellent quail
ty, too. P. 5. Williams says he will
have two tons. Of peaches for the mar
ket within the next two months. Grapes
are now being marketed.
The Colonia Diaz people say there
has enough water fallen already this
season to insure them good crops for
1912.

him ever holding the Office of governor.
That he would have made more than
good, will never cease to be the belief
of the people of Idaho. His record on
the supreme bench is enough to stamp
him as one of the foremost citizens of
the state and merely holding the Office
of governor would not have strength
ened the favorable opinion that is al
ready so well fixed.
In losing good governor, the state
has retained an exceptional justice and
in these days of general criticism of
courts, it is worth a dozen governor
ships to have the courts in safe hands.
Not every man could turn down the

tinue even in the more honorable work
of maintaining strong. just court.

LOCAL OPTION

According to reports received at the
headquarters of the Anti-Saloon league
here, petitions were filed last Wednes-
day asking for an election in Blaine
county to determine whether or not
the local option law should be made to
apply to that county.
The petition was filed by John Finch
of Soldier and the petition contained
the names of 1887 voters, being 100
more than required under the law to
secure the ordering of an election.
Less than half the signatures are said
to be those of women, the majority be-
ing men. There were 263 signatures
from Soldier, 140 in Bellevue, 100 in
Arco, rs in Carey and 80 in Haley, the
balance having been received from
smaller precincts.
A petition for an election in this
county was filed once before about two
years ago, but was filed by the com
missioners, who based their refusal up
on some failure to comply with the
requirements of tho law in filing such
petitions. Capital News.

to do to get the greatest returns from
the soil and how to do it, there is
where most of US fall down on certain
things and all because we don't know
to a certainty how. come here to lee
ture on the subjects you want to know
most about. Let us have that school
here, it will be the greatest benefit
possible, it will advertise us and will
make specialist of US in whatever line
of farming we take up. Right here |

farming on conglomoration lines, and
take up some special lines and work

Missouri and Mississippi Valleys
From the 10Th day of March up to
the present date the Richfield Tract
has enjoyed a full supply of water
without an hours interruption from
any cause. Such a record is, we be-
lieve, without precedent under the
conditions which prevail here. Most of
the canals of the system are new.
none of them ever having carried
water earlier than 1909, and for only
limited time during that season. I'm
der such conditions it is to be antici-
pated that canal breaks and sother
casualties will cause miner inter
ruptions to the service even in old and
well seasoned canals. No such casual
ties have been permitted to happen
during the present year and the Rich
field farmer has been enabled to con-
duct that portion of his work without
any other thought than the amount of
water required by his crops. What
ever he needed has been there when he
