Alfalfa Seed.

Probably two-thirds of our farm
ers are going to try the alfalfa seed
proposition this year. 1t is ac-
knowledged that the successful pro-
duction OF seed is about the most
difficult thing that our people will
have to contend with. In the first
place the stand must be right, the
water must be applied at the right
time, and only at the right time,
and just in the right amount. A
person expecting to produce alfalfa
seed shonld get expert advice on the
subject.
No one thing will mean so much
to this country as the successful
production of alfalfa seed. If our
farmers demonstrate that this is an
alfalfa seed country, their lands will
double in value within six months,
and there will scarcely be any limit
to the value that they will eventual
ly bring. Alfalfa seed can be pro-
duced only in limited sections and
the demand is steadily increasing,
and the freight does not eat up the
profits. 1t will pay every farmer,
even if he has no more than an acre
of alfalfa, to try his hand at raising
seed.

Mr.. c. G. Adams and Miss Ellen
Adams of Ohio arrived in Wendell
this week and will spend the sum-
mer on their farm adjoining the J
P. Bates ranch.
Mr.. J. B. Ellsworth thinks he i
now Il full-fedged irrigator. On
going over his farm Tuesday morn
ing he found every corrugation had
been running just as it should all
night.
Reports of the splendid crops
sound all the better in the light OF
the fact that potatoes are bringing
81 per bushel on the Kansas City
market and most other farm pro-
ducts are selling for high prices.
The farmers at GoOding will begin
to cut alfalfa the latter part of the
week. As a great deal of hay was
put up here last week, this makes
US little better than a week ahead
of the Gooding country.
The young proprietor of the May
B ranch fell asleep while on his way
home at an early hour Monday
morning, and upon awaking h,
found himself severed miles from
home and going in the opposit,
direction.
Mr.. W. 5. Bates was up from tn,

Mr.. A. d. Milligan took a littl,
better than two tons per acre of
his alfalfa field. This is dom,
pretty well as it was the first tim,
the alfalfa has ever been cut. Tw,
more cuttings like this, at presen
prices, and the land will be paid for

Lincoln County Fair.

The Lincoln County Fair was held
at Hagerman last year and at that
time Wendell was selected as the
place for the next county fair. And
pursuant to the holding of the fair
at this place the Wendell business
men have organized themselves into
club, the purpose Of which is to
promote the fair aud other kindred
matters. An organization has been
completed and committees appoint
ed to look after the verious lines of
work which have been mapped out.
The Club is taking the matter up
in business-like and energetic
manner, which speaks well for the
success of the undertaking. 1t has
been decided that this fair must be
the greatest thing ever held in Lin
coin county. The occasion will be
very ausplcious one, because II
really will be the celebration of the
cementing together of the two ends
Of the county, as that will be their
first opportunity to do 50.
1t has been decided that a thous-
and dollars can and will be raised
for the payment of premiums and
expenses. And it has further been
laid down as law that every premi-
um must be paid spot cash. This
will do away with much of the dis
satisfaction that has been connected
with former fairs. Wendell has
the chance of a lifetime to make
herself famous, and she intends to
do it.

The East Drying Upi

Reports are finding their way to
us every day of the terrible drough
in the Mississippi Valley states.
Wheat will not make on an average
of over six or seven bushels to the
acre, corn is an absolute failure, and
the potato crop will not amount to
very much. This is condition to
be greatly regretted, but at the
same time we cannot help but call
attention to the fact that it is going
to cause our farmers to get good
prices for what they produce. There
ought to be a small fortune in po-
tatoes for our North Side farmers
and they ought to realize handsome
ly on their grains. The drough
will make the people back there ac-
knowledge that irrigation is a
mighty good thing, and numbers
will find their way out to the coun-
try where irrigation is king.

That Bridge Matter.

The following communication
was received from Gov. Hawley and
it would seem that Mr.. Hawley is
in no way to be blamed for the mis-
location of the Snake River bridge:
Ny DEAR SIR:
Yours of the Goth ultimo was received
during my absence from the city, and
my attention hes just been called to it.
Whoever has stated that | am the one
who did the locating of the bridge across
Snake River, near Clear Lake, is abso-
lutely mistaken. This was a matter
that | knew but little about and it was a
matter solely for the legislature to decide.
| presume there is wide divergence OF
opinion in regard to the proper location
of the bridge, as find varying opinions
in regard tothe location of all bridges.
The matter, however, is placed by the
statute in the hands of the Commission
ers. 1t is their business entirely and
something have nothing to do with.
| would advise that you take it up with
the State Engineer.
Yours very truly,
j. ii. HAwLEY.

A Short Sighted Course.

Wendell and Jerome have for the
greater part of their existence been
situated on a short stub of a rail-
road, and all persons bound for this
tract from the outside had to stop
over either in Gooding or Twin
Falls. \ person headed for the
North Side would naturally inquire
into the condition of things here,
wherever they stopped. Now it
would seem that people in these two
towns who are supposed to be en-
gagged in the grand and ardous
struggle of getting people from the
outside to come to Southern Idaho,
and grasp some of the numerous
opportunities that are to be found
here in abundance, would naturally
say a good word for Us; or if not,
they would at least tell the truth
concerning conditions on the North
Side. 1t would seem that reasoning
persons would realize that whenever
they turned a prospective settler
away from Southern Idaho that
they were injuring themselves as
well as the entire state. But it has
to be acknowledged that the afore-
named towns have some very short
sighted people within their limits.
Instance after instance has come to
us of people who started from their
homes in the east with no other
point but Wendell in view, who,
on arriving at Gooding or Twin
Falls, have had such lurid pictures
of the hardships here painted to
them and have had such infamous
falsehoods told them concerning the
conditions here that they never even
come to see for themselves; but
took the first train back east or else
went to some other part of the
Northwest. The first of this week
a man came in from the northern
part of the state and stopped day
or two at Gooding, and the ideas he
had of the North Side after our kind
friends up there got through with
him were laughable in the extreme.
He had been made to believe that
we had never had water, that our
canal system was a mere make be-
lieve, that we had no reservoirs and
that our land was all rocks and sand
1t was by the merest chance that he
came on down and saw things for
himself, but he happened to be a
good enough Judge of human nature
to know that we must have some
thing mighty good down here, OF
else those people there would not
have been so anxious to discredit us.
He. came down and found that his
surmises were true, and decided to
buy and remain at Wendell.
However much our neighboring
towns may wish to iniure us, they
will not be able to do so much
longer, as, once our Main Line
trains are running we will be in a
position to have our prospective set
tiers come straight from their home:
in the east to their destination or
the North Side tract. And wher
they are once here, all we will have
to do is to show them our splendid
system of bitches, our magnificent
storage reservoirs right on our owl
splendid lands, forever safe from
tampering hands, our well devel
oped farms, our bumper crops anC
our unexcelled railroad facilities
and they will readily stay and cas-
their lot with us.
