The little community at Bliss was

Mr.. Moore was assisting in putting

proved too much for him and he was
violently pulled off his feet against
a wagon which was right in front, his

Of the rod which holds the end gate

men ran to assist him. The wound

by name and then lapsed into un-

revived.
He was not disfigured. in any way

IDAHO WILL EXHIBIT.
Five Hundred Square Feet Of Space
Secured at Twin City
Land Show.

Idaho will show from 10000 to
10000 people big exhibit OF her
products at the land show in st.
Paul December IL to %.
Governor Hawley has received Woro
from the officers of the Northwestern
Development League that the busi-
ness interests of St. Paul, Minneapol-
is and Duluth have agreed to deal
whereby this state will be furnished
exhibit space without cost. at the land
show. The show to be given under
the auspices Of the league is the only
one in the country which is not a
private enterprise and will be manag-
ed in such way as to furnish space
for official exhibits.
AT cost of ten thousand dollars
the business interests OF the three
Minnesota cities have bought from
the league $500 square feet of pre-
ferred space at the show Each of
the seven states will have space of
fifty feet long and ten feet wide for
their official exhibit
The governor has been asked to
confer with officers OF the league in
this state and secure the interest of
those necessary to put in an exhibit
which will be a credit to the state.
Under this plan no one community
or city will have an advantage over
others in the state. Any city, county
or land company desiring to make
an independent exhibit will be able
to secure a limited amount of space
near the state exhibit on reasonable
terms, but it is the desire of the
league officers for this state that the
best possible exhibit be made in the
name of the state as it is from such
an exhibit that results are to be OBJ
tanned.
The seven states which are to be
thus represented are Washington, Ore-l
gon, Idaho, Montana, North and South
Dakota and Minnesota. No other
states will have exhibits and Canadian
exhibits will be barred, the whole
idea of the show being IAN exposition
by the seven states for the benefit |
of the seven states alone"
Idaho officers of the League are Viii |
liam M. Morgan of Moscow and G.
H. Potts of Coeur d'Alene. Inquiries
about the Idaho exhibit should be
addressed to them while information
about the show and space therein
should be addressed to Will A. Camp

These six inch wells have been

way that the draft from any one well
should not interfere with the suppy

a small draft will be put upon each

The counter effect upon the others

One Of the most productive
sections of the world is today
without a railroad; in the course
Of a year this very section will
have several railroads. that is
the story Of mans opportunity
in q nutshell.
Nechaco and Fraser River
Valleys. according to the Cana
dian government report, form
the largest connected area Of ex-
tremely fertile agriculture land
in all of British Columbia: a
vast domain that must be fed: a
section Of the northwest that is
eager, anxious, to purchase it's
foodstuffs at it's very doors.
Just because Of this lack Of
railroads the loveliest. most pro-
ductive soils in the world re-
manned comparatively unknown
until the waiting billions were
informed that the Grand Trunk
Pacific Railway Company would
build Q transcontinental line
right thru these lands, thereby
exposing to the world the won
ders, the beauties. the CONNER
cial possibilities of Nechaco and
Fraser Valleys.
Already the line is commenced
at each end, building crews are
hurrying to meet at the center:
when finished the Grand Trunk
Pacific will run trains from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, thru the
lands that will make one rich If
purchased now while prices are
yet within reason.
The western objective point Of
this new transcontinental line is
Prince Rupert, on the Pacific
Ocean, passing directly thru the
lands we offer to sell you now at
prices that must raise almost
unbelievably within a year
The road is already completed
148 miles west Of Edmunton and
will be finished thru the Rocky
Mountains this fall and under
its contract with the Canadian
government is BOUND to COM
plete the main line in 1911. Sew
eral other lines Of railway-one
east and west, another north and
south-are also assured and will
add to the advantages already
insured to those who are
PROMPT to buy literally in
their vicinity.

There are many forms of publicity.
They vary from the village style of
lacking up pencilIed notice in the
postoffice to the use of billboards,
window hangers and posters-up to
the use of newspaper display ads and
brightly written reading notices.
All forms Of publicity are good

experience Of advertisers who have
spent millions in the publicity game
Is that newspaper advertising gets
