The great water powers at and
near your city assure permanent in
dustries. Add to this railroad trans
fer, more electric car lines to out
lying towns. as well as such a state
scenic highway as is proposed, also
the increasing prosperity Of the
farming region. the attractive resi-
dental conditions now existing and
in prospect, the town should have
more than normal growth and be
very attractive to persons of means
who wish to settle down for perma-
nent homes.

OIL EACH sue OF the NOFLn western
railroad right of way.
The bluff top and bottom reserva-
ton roads almost their whole length
give access to unimproved low priced
property, much of this property be-
ing low priced because it is wet. An
important feature of the project is
to provide for the drainage of such
land through an open channel within
the reservation for most of it's leng-
th that will be deep enough to drain
all wet land along the line. Usually
this channel will follow the line of
streams that come within the takings
indicated. At other points a new
channel will take the stream within
these lines. Sometimes a paved bot
tom may be needed on the bottom of
the new channel to make it easy to
keep it in order, but with planted
banks and shaded walks it can soon
be given the character and attrac-
tiveness of a natural water course
which will be very attractive from
the walks and roads along side.
Such an open course I would recon
mend here as well as in the propos-
ed reservation along Grand avenue
on the westerly side because of the
lower cost of construction and it's
attractiveness.
Such a permanent landscape pas
sage through the town will invite
the construction of homes thereon as
they are now coming on the river
banks. It will make an attractive

Of the width Of the streets be recon

to pay for their paving. The question
OF reconsideration was put to vote
and carried by a very small margin.

involve about 5000 acres. A dis
cussion was INDUCED in between Mr..
Potter and the members of the board
relative TO cooperative methods being
adopted by the state officials and the
forestry department in handling forest
fires, the forests of both state and
government being taken into consid-

agreement will be reached as will be.
satisfactory to both parties. Governor
Hawley expressed to Mr.. Potter his
appreciation of the benefit the state
had derived from his visit and in turn
Mr.. Potter assured the governor and
the members of the board that bis visit
had been very pleasant and that the
which he had derived of
the timber land in this state was
profitable one. A resolution embody
ing the agreement effected was pre-
pared by Attorney General McDougaIl
and was passed by the board.

At meeting of the state land board
this week an agreement was perfected
between the board and A. C. Potter of
the national forestry department at
Washington whereby the state will be
allowed to select two or more compact
bodies of land in lieu of unsurveyed
sections 16 and SO lost by the state by
the creation of national forest reserves
created in this state. The area of
the lands lost is about 500, 600 acres
and similar area will be selected the
selection being made with a view to
the compact form of the lands which
will probably involve one of the bodies
being located in the northern part of
the state and the other in the southern
part of the state. BY the terms of
the agreement effected, the state will
also release certain lands it has at
tempted to select in the forest reserve
and as consequence will be allowed
BY the government to select a similar
area in compact body nearer lands

HOW TO KEEP YOUR FISH
Cheap and Simple Remedy For the
Keeping of Fresh Fish

Sportsmen who are going on hunt

something that will be of use to
them in the preserving of fish, II
they will follow the instructions
laid down bby Dr. ]. c. Leonard.
of Gilmore, says the s tatesman.
Following is his curing method:
First you must catch your fish.
Then cut his head off, split open
on the back, and scrape out the
black blood along the backbone. Put
on salt and black pepper and throw
fish aroccss a line in fthe sun. t
will da in about 40 or SO minutes.
Into the bottom of box that will
hold the amount of fish you wish
save put layer of green grass,
layer of fish then another layer of
grass and so on. Preserved in this
way fish will keep from so to 80
days, and will be as fresh as when
first caught.

ton This Year

The Richfieeld tract Is prosper
Gus and there is more land being
put in cultivation on the Richfield
tract this year than any other seq
regation in the entire state Is the
word brought in by every person
coming into this country this year.
Alfalfa made q good crop, early
gardens could not be beat, straw
berries were as good as the best,
potatoes, raised right at home are
on the market and there will be tons
upon tons to ship out this year to
sections of the country that are
less fortunate than ourselves and the
price will be good.
Wheat harvest will commence mex
week, and from the present outlook.
the yield will be as much as forty
bushels per acre of an extra good
quality of wheat and as the great
wheat growing states of the mid
die west have almost an entire fail
ure on this much used grain this
yr,ae, our Richfield ranchers can
expect ii good price for all they have
to sell.

evaporation will form very big items
for considerations. The canal woulc
be IS miles in length and it is altogeth
er probable, on the face of recent
examinations, that only cement lined
canal will be considered.
1.-The crossing of the Salmon river,
where the water must be taken across
q canyon 500 feet deep and 500 feet
wide, is another feature of great diff
Guilty. This probably will be done by
means of shaft and tunnel, using an
inverted siphan system. This involves
not only great friction but also tre-

"'The capacity Of the canal will be
about 5000 second feet Of water at 3
point IS miles from its head. This
canal would be about twice the size
of the present South Side canal +"
"The main point noticed from recent
developments, however, is the fact that
although between ten and twenty
million must be expended to carry this
gigantic project to q successful con-
clusion, the question of money isn't
the most pressing, the engineering
problems as to feasibility being the on
