Are Responding To Request

A standing invitation to the peo-
pie of the state. to contribute some
thing toward the maintenance Of the
home finding society of Boise exists.
After the harvest the existance of the
home and its necessities are brought
more forcibly before all the people
operating the home. The teachers of
Bingham county are doing a good
work along this line and many are
raising money by little entertainments,
many are soliciting fruit from farm
ers. Prof. Pickett, of Porterville, has
brought to the county superintendent
office a box of canned fruit, the b.
salt school children gave school
dance and secured $3.50. The girls
Of the domestic science class Of Yuma,
under the direction of Miss Dorothy
Clapp, is dressing doll, which will

The potato is sure and safe crop
for farmers to grow in this locality in
the future. Potatoes and fruit are
two crops that but few localities are
adapted to, and after a locality is
beyond the experimental stage and
produce quantities and attract buyers,
then the question comes as to quality
only AS the buyers are always glad
to pay the price if they can get the
quality. Idaho potatoes have worked
up reputation for themselves this year
that is world wide and is selling 10
cents in advance in all markets and
it is safe to say that even the day
for so cent potato is gone, but ev-
en- at this price our farmers can make
from $500 to $4,000 per acre. Farm
ers do not be afraid to grow potatoes,
get good seed and use good land and
grow the quality and the price will
take care of itself, for the demand
will be great on all markets for Idaho

Fifteen Years Of Sunshine

Once in a while one finds in middle
life man or woman, whose, view
point of life has kept their faces free
from wrinkles, their voices young, and
their minds as clean of worries as can
be imagined Such woman is Mrs.
G. H. Clayton, of this city, she is a
woman full of fun, with voice of rare
beauty, woman who can make one
in party of young folks any time,
and Saturday night she passed her
fifty-sixth birthday. Friends of the
city gathered at her home and helped
to celebrate the day. and the time was
passed with merrymaking until late
hour. While Mrs. Clayton has no
doubt had her share Of care In life,
yet her smiling face, quick step and
merry voice would indicate that she
had spent fiftysix years of Sunshine.

About Sale Seasons

Every business has its successful
and unsuccessful seasons. Nothing is
more SO than farm auctions especial
ly so when live stock is the main part
of the sale. . As winter approaches It
seems to be second nature for peo-
pie who have surplus of live stock
to want to SELL and 1t makes such a
flood that even quality must suffer the
slump. Then about February of each
year people begin to feel the coming
of spring and all want to buy. The
drag season only lasts practically six
weeks then people are free to pay
values for there is plenty of competi-
ton and keen demand and those
anticipating sales should bear it in
mind.
