II Bassey Could Hit.

Well-posted fans agree that IL
Johnny Bassey were a real live
wire swatter he wouldn't be fuss
ing around Tacoma, or any other
class B club. No, sir, John would
be right up in the big sensation,
when the great national pastime
is played right. He is a sure n.y.
|grabber, a dandy baserunner and
has speed to burn. But he can't
hit. Shredder says Bassey aver
will be a hitter until he leafns to
cease stepping away fro1 z the
plate. Walt McCredie wa just
as sweet on Johnny as Shredder
and the local fans, but he couldn't
make Johnny into a swatter and
he gave up in despair. It is likely
Shredder will have to pursue the
same course when the hedge-in is
pulled or June 1.

Orchards Begin to Pay.

Apple orchards and other varie-
ties of fruit trees are coming INTO
hearinr ON the Twin Falls South
Side proiect, although the years are
few since the entire country was a
sage brush desert. In another year
or two the orchards planted on the
Twin Falls North Side project,
reaching within seven miles oil
Shoshone, will he marketing gener-
ous crops. There are already many
thousands of acres planted and
more are being put out every sea
son. For twenty years the lrui'
trees planted on the Big and Llttle
Wood rivers and in the Hagermia,n
valley have born fruit practically

fruit yields here is well established

School Board Meets.

The school board met in regular ses-
sion last Saturday evening, all members
being present. After the reading and
approval OF the previous meeting, the
board considered the applications for
janltor for the coming school year. On
motion of MIR, Wagner, seconded by Mr..
Jno. d. Minis the application of Frank
6. Minis was accepted as the lowest and
best bid, and Mr.. Minis was declared
elected at a salary OF 5000 per month.
Upon recommendations by Wayland and
Fennell, the architects, the board thought
it best to not put the finishing touches
on the interior walls Of the new school
building until the building had thorough
ly settled. A committee from the terri
tory miles west OF town, being present,
the board took up the matter OF build
school house in that vicinity, the result

MONEY IN SHEEP.

An authenticated article in one
of our exchanges, upon the sheep
industry in Idaho, says:
"The Idaho wool is better grown
and stronger staple and is easily
worth two cents more a pound than
the wool of the other states this
wear, and the Idaho wool is much
superior this year to what ii was
last year.
The mutton output for Idaho
alone this year will bring in 1000
600, all eastern money.
"The wool clips for Idaho alone
this year will bring in s3,OOO,OOO,
and this money is already coming
in heavily, probably 81 l,5OO,OU
having so far arrived from the east
This means that the sheepmer
will bring an aggregate amount o
81 .OOO, 900 into Idaho for muttol
and wool this year, and that ough

ORGANIZATION.

The article contributed by Major
Reed, appearing in these columns
last week, furnishes much food for
thought among our farmers. The
keynote of his article is organization,
believing it is the only successful
course to pursue. In this he but
voices the sentiments Of the major
ity of the farmers on the tract, and
our people in general, and we trust
that his suggestions may be carried
out.
In the organization of the Canal
Users Association, this idea was
paramount in the minds Of the in
stigators of this Association, and
we believe that this object is still
uppermost in their minds. Up to
the present time, however, there
has been no occasion for active work
along this line, but, as we CLEAN re-
ports from all over the tract, telling
OF the bountiful yields of all pro-
ducts Of the soil, the question of
marketing these products should
become serious one, and every
farmer should work hand in hand
with his neighbor TO obtain the best
possible results.
Thus far the Association has done
much good TO each and every set
tier on the tract, whether he be 9
member of the association or not
and much more good can be accom-
plished if every settler would enrol
himself as a member, and take AZ
active part in formulating plans fo
carrying on the work as suggested
by Mr.. Reed. The expense con
nected with a membership is nomi
nal, and the good to be derive,
from it is hard to estimate. w
would like to see every farmer ol
the tract member of this organi
zation, instead of portion of then
hanging back, ready to take advai,
tage of any benefits they may deriv
Il from it, without contributing thei
u proportionate share. In unity ther
y is strength, and unity and harmon
" are the two prime factors towar

DEVELOPMENT ON THE TRACT.
About Twenty Per Cent of the and
in the Jerome District Under
Cultivation.

a careful investigation has been
going on for some time by the agri-
cultural department of the North
Side Water Co., to ascertain the
total acreage under cultivation
in this vicinity. The figures given
below represent the Jerome district
only, which embraces the territory
extending from the north line of
the segregation to the river, and
from the east line of the segregation
to "A point about 6 miles west Of
Jerome.
a careful inquiry shows that
about $500 acres are in actual
cultivation, which represents about
20 per cent of the entire acreage
contained in this boundary. The
result also shows an increase of
300 acres over last year. The lat
ter figure, however, does not cover
the amount OF new land that has
been put under cultivation this
year, as several pieces that wer,
put into proveu-p crops, etc, last
year are not being worked this sea
son.
The summary Of the l3, 800 acre
is made up as follows:
ORCHARDS, 1850 acre
Alfalfa. G,7S0 "
Potatoes, 800
Beans, 200

The Idaho Falls Times tells OF
the use of sweet clover as SOIL Ter
tilizer, saying that in an Illinois
experiment it was found that in an
acre of thrifty sweet clover, includ-
ing leaves, stems and roots, there
were 22s pounds of nitrogen which
is about twice the amount contained
in an acre of alfalfa or red clover.
1t was also found that an acre OF
this wild lcgume contained ga tons
of dry matter, furnishing as much
humas as would be contained IN
twenty-five loads of average barn
yard manure.

LAW ABIDING WOOD.

Yesterday committee of represen- tatIve citizens of Hot Springs went to Little Rock to ask the governor of the state to carry out the proyis- ions of the LAW and call special election in Garland county.
 J. E. Wood. public prosecutor and representative of the LAWy Is re ported to have called the governor up by phone aud urged the request oi the committee be turned down.
 There is a nice situation for you
 Citizens should not have to beg governor, who is sworn executive of the LAW, to abide the law.
 But if the political situation madl 1t necessary that citizens of com munIty were forced to demand or beg that the LAW De compiled with, isr't 1t another thing altogether when the public prosecutor. also sworn execu tive of the law. opposes the request of the committed?
 This question will have to De ans wered,
 The rights its ot of the tsfhie people are .rama- led. The LAW of the people Is de- nisd our people. and Donaghey ano Wood are behind the denial. Are Don aghey and Wood above the law
 Win it increase respect for the law TOT seif-exponents of tine law 10 de ride the law?
 Can the governor of a state, arbi- trarily and against the law, name of- ficers of e community?
 When a man is commissioned as sheriff. and the commission is with out the authority of the full law, Is the authority vaiid
 Can governor designate com muni;y officcf under the authority of the law. without being governed by the whole of the law?
 There are some hard facts to race in the appointment of a sheriff il this county at the behest of !. B. Wood and by Governor Donaghey.
 Every citizen or Garland county has a right to Kc.ow all about this situation. The sheriff is a public officer, and the validity of his ace concern all the people.
 
 The law says the governor SHALL. call special election, and shall ap- point until the election is held
 t ;s the same law that demands he call | special election that gives hini authority to appoint temporarily.
 If half the law is obeyed and the other half Ignored the law is not com piled with by tho governor. and f may Do that the cheriff has not full authority to handle the office.
 If your legal processes are served by man not properly in authority 1t Is your business If you let twe men, Wood and Donagbey. bamboozlt you into mistakes. that is your busi- ness.
 The most high handed procedure fhat has ever taken place in Arkansas is to override the constitution under the gulse of upholding the law.
 If a community Will sit idly by and and let two men dominate their affaiys when that domination is in opposition to the law, then the consequences must be theirs.
 But if this community will arise ir It's might and declare that 1t is nc pitable object 10 be taken for door mat that 1t will nos tolerate being deprived Of its plsyilege of self government; that it's citizenship ars men and not weddings to Dc under trod by the heavy boot of Czarshtp there may be a different story yei to tell of Hot Springs and it's fa. fure.
