THE CANYON COUNTY
BRAND OF CHRISTIANITY

On the evening of Tuesday. Aug. Is,
Mr.. G. B. Lafferty, a popular young
rancher living about miles south Of
the city met with very serious acct
dent while driving a team in the city.
HE was thrown out, his leg and ankle
broken, besides receiving serious
scalp wound.
Monday last some Is or 30 of his
neighbors assembled on the place at
7 a. m. with IL mowers and by IL
o'clock had cut 40 acres of hay. The
wives and daughters of the neighbors
in the meantime had arrived with
great baskets of the choicest edibles
and the men. laughing and joking after
their strenuous morning, sat down to
a general jollification.
At o'clock seven rakes and 80
shockers started in and 3 o'clock lined
up to have their pictures taken, having
finished as clean job as may be seen
anywhere.
At 5 o'clock lunch was served the
workers and fine social time was
spent. One man present said he felt
like he had been attending a wedding
and picnic combined and was ready for
another any time.
Today the men are at work with
derricks and by night the crop will be
safely in the stack.
Mr.. Lafferty is improving as rapidly
as may be expected, but will not be out
for quite while yet.

PIONEER PLANS
IMPROVEMENTS

At the meeting of the directors
Tuesday, the Pioneer Irrigation Dis
trict determined to replace the old
wooden structures along Indian and
Mason creeks by reinforced steel
fumes.
There is considerable water carried
in these creeks, some 1880 inches
being accredited to Indian creek and
about 10000 to Mason creek. The
wooden fumes are nine years old and
it was thought best to replace them
with stronger and more permanent
structures.
1t will be necessary to use twin
fumes of the best quality of steel with
concrete abutments. The cost is esti-
mated by Engineer Williams at about
100000. He is now preparing plans
and specifications.

BOISE VALLEY A
GREAT POTATO DISTRICT.

John Clemens, farmer living east
of town, who was at one time a prom
inent potato grower in the Greeley,
Colorado district, was in Caldwell
Saturday. He brought with him from
his farm some choice samples of his
potato crop this year and expressed
the opinion that the Boise Valley in
the near future would become the
greatest potato growing district in the
United States. He informs us that
several of the leading growers now
located around Greeley are contem-
pulating of moving to Caldwell to
engage in that industry on a large
scale.

Dance on the Street.

The latest innovation announced is
the big open air dance Friday and
Saturday nights, September n and %.
Unlike open air dances held on similar
occasions, where large platforms or
dancing pavilions are erected, the
Nampa Harvest Festival boosters will
utilize the excellent paved street of
the city as dancing floor, and visitors
to the big event will enjoy the now
city of practicing the terpsichorean
art on the bithulitic pavement.
A distance of 800 feet, the full width
of the street, extending along Twelfth
avenue from second street south, in
front of the city hall, will be blocked
off as pavilion, thoroughly cleaned
and slickened with powdered soap
stone. 1t is estimated that three bar
rels Of the slippery stuff" will be re-
CURED, as all the indentations of the
horse hooffs will be filled and the en-
tire surface will receive a coating that
it is said will make it as smoothe as
the joy slides on Barbara coast.
Brass band music will furnish the
inspiration. A band of ten or twelve
pieces with an extra supply of wind
will be stationed in the center of the
pavilion and there is no question but
that the music will be loud enough ct
guide the trippers to the remotest
corners. Above the street strings of
electric lights will substitute the
bright lights of the ball room, and the
city hall, lighted from basement to
garrett will serve as reception parlor
and rest room for the merry party.
Another Big Barbecue.
The big free barbecue feature of the
Festival will not be overlooked this
year. 1t was pulled off so success
fully and brought forth so much favor
able comment last year that it was de-
cided to repeat it. But like every
other feature it will be increased pro-
portionally; half again as much meat
will be prepared under the direction
of George King of the New York Meat
market, who conducted the same a
year ago, and there will be much mare
bread, coffee and other editables to as
sure the public that all will have an
opportunity to partake of the rare
open air lunch that is to be held at
noon on Saturday, the last day of the
Festival.

ANNUAL ELECTION OF
SCHOOL TRUSTEES,

On Tuesday, September 3rd, occurs
the annual election of school trustees,
at the city hail. There will be elected
four trustees. one for a term of one
year, one for two years. and two for
three years. Mr.. R. S. Madden has
resigned, the term of Messrs. H. B.
,Aven, w: R. Wilkerson and Ed Meek
have expired. 80 sx4
Mr.. Wilkerson finds it impossible
to again serve. He has given himself
to long, faithful work as trustee,
and feels that another should now
take the burden from his shoulders.
Mr.. Meek may be persuaded to serve
another term; which is also probably
true of Mr.. M Mcdonald, who is fl-
ling the term of Mr.. Aven. The work
OF these gentlemen is a matter Of
public record; they have made good
trustees and the people would do we'll
to elect them to another term.
Prominent among those mentioned
as trustees is the name of Mr.. F. H.
Lyon. cashier of the First National
Bank. Mr.. Lyon Is a man of keen
business instincts. warm human SYM
pathies, and altogether we'll fitted for
the office of school trustee.
Another name suggested is that of
MIR. r. B. Scatterday. Mr.. Scatterday
is young man of mature Judgment.
OF splendid executive ability, we'll
known and universally liked. If he
would consent to serve, Mr.. Scatter
day would make a splendid trustee
Mr.. S. d. Simpson, cashier of the
American National Bank. has also
been mentioned for q position on the
board. Mr.. Simpson Is q hustler, OF
admirable business training and ex-
perience, and an earnest booster for
the city of Caldwell. The people
would make no mistake in electing
Mr.. Simpson q trustee.
One of the most consistent boosters
OF the city and a man known by every
one as a hard headed business man, as
well as q gentleman upon whose judg-
ment the people might well adopt, Is
Mr.. Ed. Potter. manager of the Sara
toga Hotel. Mr.. Potter seems TO
have the appreciation of quite mum
Der OF people. He would make q
good trustee.

On account of the fact that the sub

compelled to discontinue their weekly

The organization will be continued,
but there is some expense entailed to
the concerts and the boys declare they
are not getting enough support to
warrant further free concerts.

Next Month.

When the bells ring out Monday,
September 9, everything will be in
readiness for the opening of the fall
term of the public schools of the city.
The most important addition to the
regular curriculum is the manual train
ing department. The trend of national
thought is distinctly towards fitting
the child to do the work which he
will be called upon to perform
in his daily life when the school
days are over. The manual training
room fitted up in the high school
building has been equipped at a cost
of about $4,000, and the instructor
employed, teaching other classes, will
cost the taxpayers but little additional.
The laboratory has bee renovated
and the equipment added to with an
expenditure of some $4,000, which
about sums up the money spent dur
ing the summer.
