DEARY HAS MANY
GOOD ADVANTAGES

When the present tOwnsite of Deary
was known to the few settlers living
in it's immediate vicinity as the Blalock
place, and picturesque Mt. Deary was
known to a larger circle as Potato hill,
lands around Moscow were of uncer-
tain value, and those of the Upper Pot
latch went begging at from 5000 to
$500 per quarter section.
But this is all changed today I'm
der the impetus of progressive farm
methods, land in this section of Latah
county are held at as high values in
many cases as those Immediately
around Moscow, and the old bug-bear
of frosty conditions and no water sup
ply has given way before intelligent
demonstration that few places in the
entire Palouse are less frosty and that
wells can be successfully sunk any
where.
Deary and the country Immediately
surrounding it is rapidly coming into
heritage of abundant crops, con-
stantly increasing in value and i'm
portance because of the additional
acreage that is being added year by
year by the suDjugation OF the stump
infested lands, wherein fields of wav-
ing grain supplant the scrubby frs
and tamarack, understudies to the
giant western pine of commerce.
Here on the logged-off lands, is to
be found small fruits in all their de-
licious abundance; here the clover and
timothy, and the alfalfa, spread their
delicious fragrance on the morning
and evening breezes; here the truck
gardener plucks from the vines his
peas and beans, pulls his beets and
turnips and carrots, rejoicing mean
while in the profigacy of nature that
produces so abundantly. And to give
credit where credit is due the coun-
ty slogan, tits the Soil" is an ex-
PLANTATION of productivity that no
amount of cultivation could bring
about.
When the townsite of Deary was
placed on the market nearly five years
ago, the first sales of lots having
been made on the goth of September, |
1907, by F. c. MCGOWAN and Fl. P.
Henry, it was predicted that no town
would ever develope in that particular
location. This site was chosen after |
great deal Of study and investiga- |
ton in which Theodore Reed of Mos |
COW, had an important part To his |
Knowledge of the county, specific |
data was added by table made out
after an investigation by Isaac Wilson,
then in the employ of the Washington.
Idaho & Montant railroad This Ia
BILE gave the tonnage that would be |
supplied by the TWO stations of Avon
and Deary, and is as follows:

utes' drive from the slopes of the
Clearwater where the most profitable
large grape vineyards of the north
west are located, and grapes can be
and are proftably grown in almost any
part of the Potlatch.
Like the Palouse country proper, the
Potlatch is naturally adapted to po-
tatoes, onions, and in fact all yegeta-
bles, especially the tuber varieties.
Potatoes are always profitable crop.
averaging 300 to 400 bushels per acre,
and in special instances yielding as
high as 500 to 800 bushels per acre.
The Natural Home of Timothy.
1t is in the grasses, however, that
the superiority of the Potlatch over
other districts of the Inland Empire
is most marked. Timothy grows ma
turally here. Even among scattering
timber on uncultivated tracts, timothy
is found growing in a wild state.
Practically any farm in the Potlatch
country can be changed from wheat
to timothy, and with timothy hay sell
ing from SIS to $25 a ton there is i'm
mense profit in this crop. Glover is
not extensively grown, and where tried
has proven a success. Timothy fields,
alternate with fields of wheat, oats and
barley in the timber district. AS a
consequence cattle-raiSing, dairying,
hog-raising and bee culture are prof
liable here as in few parts of the
northwest.
Strawberries.
In the higher attitudes of the Pot
latch country, in what is known as
the timber districts, strawberries are
grown to perfection, which for size and
quality are unsurpassed in any cOun
try, and command a higher price on
the market over berries grown in the :
irrigated districts, on account of the SUI
periority of non-irrigated fruits.
Game, Fishing and Sports.
This territory is a great place for
the hunting of wild game in the way
Of deer, elk, moose and bear as well
as small wild animals. Almost all
kinds of wild birds can be found, ma
king this section an idea place for the
pleasure seeker to come to spend the

AS SIMMONS PASSENGER
R. ]. Collier Consents to His
Aviator Giving Exhibition
Flight independence Day.

When the hydro-aeroplane of R.
J. Collier with o. G. Simmons at
the wheel arrives off the bluff on the
morning of July 4, the huge crowd
of spectators on the natural bleach
ers will be greeted by Acting Mayor
Ferd Garretson, who will be a pas
senger in the machine.
Mr.. Garretson, who is we'll versed
in wireless telegraphy and is also
an automobile enthusiast, will make
his debut into aeronautics on the

favorable. On the eventful morn
ing Mr.. Garretson will motor to
Soldiers Beach and then under the
guidance of Mr.. Simmons the huge
air conqueror will be headed for this
city, with the acting mayor seated
alongside of the aviator.
At Soldiers Beach yesterday Mr..
Garretson met r. J. Collier and

the craft on the day of the flights.
Mr.. Collier about the middle of June
will remove the machine now at
Soldiers to the Catskill mountains

from the staff of the hangar.
Mr.. Collier stated that he would
soon make a flight to New Haven
and If possible be there to witness
the boat races the latter part of
June. This will be the longest
fight ever attempted by a hydro
aerolane. Owing to the heavy winds
of yesterday afternoon only one
fight was made by Mr.. Collier and
Walter Brookins.
When the party went to the han
gar yesterday they were surprised
to find that about $500 worth of
clothing had been stolen. Several
leather coats belonging to Mr.. Sim
mons and Brookins are missing, as
was Mr.. Golfers polo coat. Ent-
rance was gained by forcing the

DEMOCRATS IN
A HOT BATTLE
County Clerk Cannon Talks
on the Runyon Effort to
Get Control.
WILSON CLUB MEETS

There is no intermission in the
factional fight in the Democratic
party in this city and throughout
Middlesex county. Among the fea-
lures today is an interview with
County Clerk B. M. Cannon, the re-
organization of the Wilson club here
and the activities displayed by the
Ross-Runyan faction who are back
ing the cause of Jim Smith.
Milliard F. Ross, of New Bruins
wick, and w. Parker RunyOn, of this
city, allied with former U. s. Sen
against Governor Woodrow Wilson,
have jumped into the campaign with
in the past few days with increased
vigor and are leaving no stone un-
turned to throw MiddleseX into the
anti-Wilson column. Ross and his
henchmen have toured South Am
boy, which is the home city of Con-
gressman Thomas J. Scully, candi-
date for Wilson delegateship, eX-
tending themselves to re-establish
any political lines which existed a
few years ago, when the name of
Ross spelled Democratic success in
MiddleseX county,
South Amboy for Scully.
The Scully men are confident of
a three to one victory, however, and
the executive committee of the Dem
ocratic party in South Amboy will
hold a meeting Sunday afternoon
and complete arrangements for the
local situation for the primaries
Tuesday. AS yet it is not practical
ly certain whether the local COM
mittee will arrange for a public
demonstration for Mr.. Scully or not.
When one of the members of the ex-
ecutive committee was broached on
this subject this morning, he said:

NAME OF BOAT
is T0TTEkVILLE
S. |. R. T. Follow News Sug-
qestion-- Service This Week.

Following the suggestion made by
the EVENING NEWS soon after the
purchase of the second boat by the
Staten Island Rapid Transit Com
pany, the name of the ferryboat
"Hoboken," has been changed to
Tottenville after the staid old town
across the sound.
1t was pointed out at the time
that as the one boat was named
Perth Amboy," It would be appro-
pirate to have the other town hon
ored by its name. The old name has
been painted out and the new name
now adorns the boat, which is being
thoroughly Overhauled and painted
at the company's shops at Clifton,
Staten Island. The ferryboat is
painted red and is contrast Of the
color of the Perth Amboy, which
is a shade of green.
The ferryboat "Tottenyille' will
be put on this Saturday and Sunday
to relieve the heavy traffic which
has been given over to the one boat
heretofore. The new boat was pur-
chased by the Rapid Transit Com
pany from Captain Emery, superin-
tendent of floating equipment Of the
d. L. and w. railroad, who had Sc
cured It from his company some
time before.
The boat is In first class condition
and is much longer than the Perth
Amboy, which will be of much more
advantage In carrying the large
number of automobiles which pass
over the ferry here every week end
and holidays.

Special By United Press Wire.

Special BY United Press Wire.
Washington, May 22:-Far from
being disheartened by the Ohio re-
suit or signifying any intention of
withdrawing from the race for the
Republican nomination, President
Taft today indicated that he ex-
poets to fight harder than ever up
to the very day of the Chicago con-
Yention.
His first official act on reaching
Washington was to approve an ex-
tension of his New Jersey campaign
tour, which keeps him making
speeches IN that state up to noon on
Tuesday of next week. The New
Jersey primaries open at 1 p. NJ.
that day. This is probably the first
time a presidential candidate has
ever done any campaigning on cleo
tion day himself.
He starts out for New Jersey
early tomorrow morning. He will
make a desperate effort to take the
majority of the twenty-eight New
Jersey delegates. The President 8
campaign will take him into every
county in the state. Most of the
journey Will be by automobile.

TO SPEAK IN
MANY PLACES
Taft Compelled to Cut Short
Visit Here.

One Of the chief reasons why
President William Howard Taft will
be unable to speak longer than fif-
teen minutes In this city next Mon
day morning, Chairman John Pfeif-
fer explains, is the fact that the Taft
itinerary has been stretched out to
cover most of the important towns
in Middlesex, Monmouth and Ocean
counties, comprising the Third Con-
gressional district. President Taft
will make train platform speeches
all through South Jersey, according
to the change in plans, and will d.
vide his time between that section
and North Jersey. He will speak
about fifteen minutes In New Bruins
wick on Friday afternoon, Mr..
Pfeiffer states.
A stand will be erected on the
vacant lot opposite the postoffice
building, from which President Taft
will make his address.
Want Seats on Stage.
Former Judge Adrian Lyon, in
charge Of the Roosevelt meeting in
this city, has received an innumer-
able number of applications for
platform seats at the Roosevelt
meeting in the Auditorium, this
city, Saturday afternoon. Mr.. Lyon,
who is a Roosevelt candidate for a
delegateship in the Third district,
regrets, exceedingly, that the num-
Der of stage seats is limited and will
be reserved for honored guests and
city officials. No tickets will be re-
quired to gain admittance to the
main floor of the Auditorium at this
meeting.
