STOP PRINTING
ENVELOPES
Government Will Soon Stop Los-
ing Business and Let Printers
Of the Country Have What is
Rightfuliy Theirs.

Postmaster General Hitchcock
has announced that the govern
ment will discontinue the print
ing of stamped envelopes and
recommends that the same be
done by the local newspapers
and by special permit for the
towns nearest the newspaper
where a town has no newspaper
of its own. No large town will
be allowed to have a monopoly
on the printing Of the envelopes
to the detriment Of the smaller
newspapers.
A uniform scale of prices will
be prepared by the postoffice de-
partment and insisted upon or
the newspaper will not be sold
stamped envelopes for printing.
The scale of prices will be such
that a reasonable profit can be
made by the Office printing them.
The department will also soon
make ruling that no first class
mail will be allowed transmission
through the mails until it has a
return card written or printed on
it. The above means that the
envelope printing business will
take big boom soon, which is
sure to continue.
The order relating to the print
ing of envelopes is a correction
for an evil of long standing and
against which the newspapers
throughout the country have
fought for many years, for the
reason that the price charged
for envelopes was less than the
stock could be purchased by
printers and the rate charged
was such that a profit on The
printing could not have been
made by the. government. Hun
dreds of millions of stamped en-
velopes printed by the govern
ment are used annually through
out the country and the contem-
plated change will be greeted
with pleasure by every printer
and publisher.

It is stated upon authority that
the Great Shoshone and Twin
Falls Water Power Company will
build a power line from Lower
Salmon Fall to Glenns Ferry at
once. This is the company,
which is known as the Kuhn
concern, and already has power
plants in operation at Shoshone
Falls and Lower Salmon Fall..
The line will be in operation to
Glenns Ferry by early spring.
Spokane restaurants and the
elite will within the next few
weeks be supplied with SQUADS
from the pigeon loft of w. F.
Schornstein, of Hauser Lake,
who has just ordered four dozen
homers from the Plymouth Rock
SQUAD company of Boston, in ad-
dition to 70 pairs now in the loft.
Mr.. Schornstein expects to real
ize 35 cents apiece for the SQUADS
in the Spokane market, and will
ship several dozen each week.
One year ago he started with 10
pigeons and at that time sur
piled the family table and the
wants of the immediate neigh
bors. The average SQUAD raised
in the Hauser Lake lofts weighs
from seven to IL ounces. The
loft will be enlarged.
Figures compiled at the
freight and express Office show
that 1908 carloads of fruit and
melons were shipped from the
Payette valley during the season
of 1910. These were divided
as follows: Apples 761 cars,
prunes 174 cars, pears 8 cars,
melons 70 cars. This is said to
be more fruit than is shipped
from the rest of the state COM
bined. 1t is estimated that more
than 10 times as many acres Of
young orchard now planted in
the Payette valley than there
are acres of bearing orchard.
This being true, the next five to
ten years will see a wonderful
increase in the production Of
fruit here as in addition to the
new orchards coming into bear
ing every year the old orchards
will bear heavier each season.

holders. rs per cent of the issued
stock being represented. After
the meeting it was announced
that future plans call for a doub-
ling of the present plant the
coming summer, and that an ef-
fort will be made to install a
steel-casting plant at an early
date. The manager was in
structed to ascertain at once the
cost of such a plant. A steel
casting plant would enable the
company to improve the machine
in many particulars, as castings
requiring great strength could
be made of steel and thereby in
crease the strength and yet not
increase the weight. This equip
ment will cost between SIS, ,000and
$4,000.

Idaho, is the proposed filing o1
an application for a receivershiI
of the Big Lost river irrigation
company and the foreclosing of {
heavy lien ranging near half 9
million dollars, by the Corey
Brothers of Ogden, the contract
ors in charge of the construction
of the works at the Mackey dam
and the bitches and canal system
in connection with that project,
in the United States district
court. The matter is expected
to come up Saturday morning.
knowledge of this action fell
like a bomb in the meeting of the
state land board at it's session
this afternoon, and the air of
Governor Hawley's office was
warm for two hours while the
members of the board shot back
and forth their individual opin-
ions Of the matter.
AS affecting public policy and
the future of the state, depend
ing largely on the stability of it's
irrigation enterprises, the land
board has determined that the
issue is the most serious which
the commonwealth has ever fac
ed. The statement was made
that it is possible that a scheme
is on foot to "cut off at the pock-
cts" all of the settlers, bond
holders, investors and old back
ers of the company under re-
organization.
The sensational circumstances
attendant inevitably on such a
process of reorganization, it is
feared by the board, will be a
terrible blow to Idaho, and inno-
cent Carey act projects not d.
rectly involved would be dis
astrously affected by the results
of such an undertaking, in the
event it should prove successful.
SATURDAY
Among the charges that may
be laid before the legislative
committee named to inquire into
the actions of the state boards
are the following:
That the state land board is
responsible for the present con-
dition of the Mackay dam at a
loss of thousands of dollars to
the state.
That through a lease made in
Fremont county thousands of
acres of homestead and dry farm
land are placed in the control of
the sheep monopolists.
That the Weyerhauser syndi-
cate in northern Idaho has been
given preference in the selection
of timber lands.
That state officials have used
their offices for personal gain
and have violated the laws by
taking up Carey act land while
in the employ of the state.
That the Washington Water
Power company, of north Idaho,
has been allowed to gain control
of the fresh water lakes and
streams of that section.
More Carey Act Generalization.
Serious charges were made
against officers and agents of the
Pleasant Valley Land and Irriga-
ton company by settlers on that
project at the stormiest meeting
ever held by the new land board
at its afternoon session, called
especially to consider the prayer
of the settlers that the land
board see to it that their vested
rights be protected in the event
the company should take advan-
tage of the permission granted
by the old board to build the 3d.
foot dam to the 60 foot level and
sell water contracts for 600 acres

tees on the part of the company's
agents; that their signatures to a
