FINLEY TALKS ON
BANKING SYSTEM
RESOURCES OF EACH LOCALITY
SHOULD BE AvAInARLE FOR
COMMERCE..

WASHINGTON. Nov. s.-speaking
to-day of the present discussion OF
currency legislation, President Finley,
of the Southern Railway Company.
said:
The banks OF the South eastern
States compare Very favorably as to
soundness and ability Of management
with those OF any other part OF the
country. This was demonstrated In the
panic OF 1907 and the subsequent buxI-
ness depression.
I'm the South. as in the West. q
much larger supply Of currency 10
needed during the crop-moving period
than at any other time in the year.
The effect OF the present banking sys-
tenn Is that, during this CROP owing
season and as = result Of this larger
demand for cash. interest rates tend
to advance and credit u curtailed. no.-
withdrawing the fact that the farma RS
of the South are bringing to market
hundreds Of millions Of dollars worth
Of cotton and other products. on the
| basis of which credit should expand
rather than contract.
Speaking generally, therefore. any
plan OF currency legislation should not
only be such as will stand the strain
| of conditions tending to create panics.
| Out olOuld AiSO pN ~ ~ W
meet peculiar sectional requirements.
This does not mean that legislation
| should be sectional, for any plan that
| will enable 'he banks OF tho South,
or OF any other locality, to meet their
seasonal der ands for cash and to ex-
pand thcir credit within saf3 limits
will be bs.lsfc,el to the entire country.
ut Ia, believe. to the interest o.
the entire country. as we'll as of the
South, that tho banking resources of
each locality should be made available
for commercial transactions in that
locality, as far as this can be done
consistently with safety and sound
banking. Ia IT.. own oper atoms this
Southern Railway Company aims te
aid in the carrying out of thia policy
so far az it can consistently do SO.
| It allows the money 1t receives in pay
ment for freight and passenger trans
portation to remain in the localitiel
| in which II IL collected. In the shape
OF deposits In local banks. to be drawn
upon from time to time a. occasion
may require in payment Of wages
and other obligations"

Change of Business

Yesterday morning German Bros. took
possession of the stock OF goods carried
by f. Tacha, having purchased the lat
ter's interest and good will in the mer-
camille business so long conducted by
him. The new proprietors are no stran-
GERS to our citizens, or the mercantile
business either. They are among de-
romc's earliest settlers and are large
property holders here, and their iaith
in this country is fully evidenced by tins
last business venture. They are iamihar
with all branches of the business, having
followed the general merchandise bust
ness for years before coming to jerome,
and being pleasing and atfable gentle
men, they will certainly command lib
eral share of the patronage OF this com
munity. For the present they will con
tinue the sale inaugurated at the store
while they are shaping their plans iol
the future.
Mr.. Tacha, who retires from the busi
ness. is the oldest business man IN Je
rome, having opened his store herr. II
June. 1905. lie is as yet undetermined
as to his future arrangements.

One day last week a sleek looking, well
dressed young man drove up to the Je-
rome Livery with horse belonging at
Shoshone which showed the effects OF
quite hard driving. The young man rep
resented himself as connected with the
Government Forest Reserve corps and
stated that he was enroute to Twin Fails
in search OF a man who had been steal
ing timber from Uncle Jam, and wanted
a fresh horse to continue the drive An
animal was furnished him and a day OF
two later Piper x Bloom We're notlhed
that their horse was being offered ioT
sale there. Upon their advice the young
man was placed under arrest and Will o'
taken to Shoshone for preliminary hear
ing. charged with attempted horse steal
ing.

morning for the purpose of opening bids
for the purchase of the $1,000 worth OF
bonds voted by the citizens on October
2nd. J. S. and w. 5. Kuhn OF Pitts
burg, having been found to be the best
bidders. the bonds were ordered sold to
them at par, plus accrued interest on the
same from July LIST, 1911, at SIX per
cent. The sale is considered a very Ia
vorable one from the standpoint OF the
town, as shortly after adjournment an
offer was teegraphed the treasurer from
a Denver brokerage firm which was about
5000 less than what the bonds were sold
for. With the cash realized from the
sale of these bonds in the hands OF the
treasurer. the improvements contempla'

A Trim to f1iIIsdaIe.

We had the pleasure Tuesday OF meet
located on the first segregation, at a
meeting oi the Farmers Association held
at lillsdale on that date. 1t was also
the occasion OF our first visit to that por-
ton Of the tract, and besides meeting
a most hospitable class OF people we
found them enjoying their share OF pros
perity, which is evidenced by comiorta-
BILE homes, with stock roaming the fields
and an abundance OF hay visible from
every direction.
Some are in the midst OF the potato
harvest, others are busy threshing while
some alfalfa is still being cut, so taking
it as whole they are busy lot of peo-
pie. From casual observations our neigh
bors have not given as much attention
to fruit culture as we have on the second
segregation, though several fine orchards
were brought TO our attention, notably
among which was the one belonging to
Mr.. j. ii. Day, which consists Of Al

look at. The collection is mostly Of the
Jonathan variety OF apple trees, and have
shown most remarkable growth dur
ing the past season.
The home of Mr.. John T. Woodcock,
is probably one OF the most complete on
the tract, situated on an eminence over
looking beautiful valley from almost
any point of view. One attractive fea
ture at this place is large grove o
black locust trees which certainly mus
look inviting on a hot summer day.
We suppose there are other inviting
places on the tract, but time did not per

The Challenge Hill

The report last week OF the hill OF po-
tatoes that weighed So pounds drops
into insignificance when compared with
a sample hill that Mr. J. T. Graham was
exhibiting on Monday. The latter hill
contained upwards OF 80 potatoes, all OF
which. with the exception OF or 5, were
marketable tubers, and the total weight
of the hill was 1873 pounds. These po-
tatoes will be kept intact and will he for
warded to the Chicago land show, ac-
companied by an affidavit from Mr.
Graham as to the truthfulness of the
assertion. Such an affidavit will bt
needed where Mr.. Graham is not known
AZ this yield is very phenomenal one
and well calculated to bring forth sus
picion on the part Of almost anyone wh'
is not acquainted with the grower. Th'
potatoes are OF the Delmany variety, an'
were dug from a small garden patch
Another hill dug by Mr.. Graham iron
the same patch yielded SO potatoes, bu
of somewhat smaller size, although tn
weight was about the same. The correct
ness of this statement can be substantial
ted by affidavit from Mr.. Graham at an
| time.

After All is Said and Done,

Who in the long run comes out with
the sway? The man with the irrigated
farm, where crop failures are unknown.
Did YOU ever know man who bought
an irrigated farm and held on TO 1t that
didn't make money?
There is no better soil than this vol
canic ash, blown out OF the earths inside,
weathered for thousands OF years and
watered now by mans artitice. And II u
YOU wish TO live amidst ideal conditions,
here YOU will find a climate OF pure sun
shine. Here your children can secure
the best in education at modern, up-to-
date S45. 900. 90 school, with corps OF
able teachers.
We who are here consider ourself for
tunate in getting on the project. Where
many irrigation companies on various
tracts throughout the West have default
ed, the Kuhn Brothers have gone for
ward with this wonderful work, perfect
ing it at great financial outlay, overcom-
ing all obstacles, and, regardless OF
thoughtless criticism and knocks, are
making this One OF the best irrigated pro-
iects in the Uuion.
Every Company man, from the Kuhn
Brothers, Mr.. d. c. MacWatters and
Mr.. II. L. HOLSTER, down to the hum
blest clerk. (even Maj. Reed) owns some
OF this land. Why? Because they be-
lieye in this North Side Tract and its
future, and they are spending their mon
CIV to make their farms ideal. The old
saving is that "What is good for the
Jack is good for the Jennie. y Five
wears hence this land that you can buy
now for S4O.O0 to 5000 yer acre will be
worth from $4,000 to $4,000 yer acre.
Stop and think for minute what the
Yakima, the Wenatchie and some Older
irrigation projects have done. We have

I richness, and further, we have men witt

The Hagerman Sun says The farmers
on the North Side tract have gotten into
squabble with the Water Co. that is
going to work hardships on the whole
community if they don't get together and
settle their differences. You are dead
wrong neighbor, like many others who
are giving out advise from prejudiced
standpoint. The farmers up this way are
simply seeking their rights as guaranteed
in their contracts with the company, and
when these are forthcoming everything
will be peace and harmony again.
