SHIPPED GAR OF
BEANS TO SPOKANE
Soil in This Vicinity is First
Class For Producing
Beans.

]. E. Dohson, pioneer of this sec
tion of Idaho and former resident of
Kendrick visited in this city Sunday,
on a return trip from Spokane where
he sold 40 tons of Lady Washington
B cans. While here Mr.. Dodson called
at the Gazette Office and gave us
short sketch of his life in this country
as bean producer.
Mr.. Dobson came to this vicinity
from Iowa in the year 1890 and settled
near Kendrick. The spring following
his arrival he conceived the idea that
beans would be sood crop to raise,
so be was among the first to commence
raising the said produce, and up until
1895 he made fair progress with his
favored idea of producing beans.
In the fall Of 1895 lie moved to Orc.
fno Idaho aud purchased an so acre
tract of land with 55 acres IN cultiva-
ton. The next spring he planted his
land to beans and the first year his
average yeild per acre was 1245 lbs,
which he sold at 4c per pound lob.
the cars at his home station. Since
that time he has raised beans and kept
actual account of the cost of planting,
harvesting and putting them in the
Warehouse in sacks and he states that
1t cost him on the average of Sl1. an
acre, and IN the eighteen years he has
followed this up he has produced an
average crop per yeal ot 900 pounds to
the acre and the lowest he has ever
sold his produce was in :he year 1907
when he sold for So 90 per hundred
and has run as high as S4. per hundred.
This year Mr.. Dobson thought best to
ship a car load to Spokane, and did SO
and he states that his 40 tons cost him
S23'40 per ton TO lay them down in the
market at that city and he received a
net profit of $54 go per ton.
He is more than satisfied that it Is
the crop to handle. He made the
statement that. on his investment of
$500. which he paid for the above
mentioned so acres of land he has sold
in three years $6OCO. worth of beans.
His method of farming is to crop the
ground to beans three years and one
year to small grains, Thereby keeping
the land clean and in mellow condi.
ton. 1t is the opinion of the gentle
man that if the farmers would raise
beans in systematic way they would
realize more clear profit for their labor
than any crop he could speak of.
With these facts in cold print from
an old time farmer who has kept his
books the same as any man in store
or business of any kind would do, he
is able to show the reader that if yor
come to this ideal country where the
soil is of the best and climate unexcell
ed and do your part in planting anc
cultivatlpg your crops that you viii
prosper the same as this man has done
So when you are looking for a home
and place to make money drop dowr
to Kendrick Idaho, the city where th'
sun never sets.

E. L. French, for the past two sessions a
member of the Washington legislature, has
announced his candidacy for the Republican
nomination of lieutenant governor. The first
session he was a member Of the legislature
he worked with the rather politically notori-
Gus Edward B. Palmer, and the last session
he was a protegee Of Jim McNeeley of
Pierce County, who fathered and engineered
the scheme to prevent the state from being
re-apportioned for senators and representa-
tives in the legislature because King County
would get the bulk of the increase, which
also carried with it the dividing Of the state
into five Congressional district. King Coun-
ty voters nor the voters of any other county
in the state that are for fair play should
give French a single vote and Jim McNeeley
will get his.
