LITTLE WILLOW NOTES



Little Willow valley lost one of its
best families when Mr. and Mrs
George Scott moved to Payette last
Monday. Mr.. Scott and r. Y Currir
have made a deal whereby Mr.. Scott
takes over the Currin Barn and Mr.
Currin will take possession of the
Scott ranch the first of November.
We wish Mr.. Scott all success in
the business he will follow in Pay
cite and we know Mr.. Currin and
family will be welcomed here and
that he will be a successful farmer
we are positive, for as the saying
goes, he has been there before. We
welcome Mr.. and Mrs. Currin and
family to our valley.

Bell were Payette visitors Sun
rAy. Miss Bell came out to her

VIM. Wilburn came down from
Paddock valley Monday on his way
to Payette. He gave us the latest
report from Lester Milligan the Is
year old boy of Jess Milligan who
accidentally shot himself with a "a
calibre rifle the first of October. The
shooting occurred in his fathers
sheep camp 20 miles from Council up
in the mountains, where the boy still
remains. He was taken to the near
est house and is still very low, is
attended by his mother and a train
ed nurse, the steel bullet entered the
body under the right ribs just
above the hip and passed through
the body coming out near the left
shoulder. DR.. Brown of Council

fighting chance to recover.
A family reunion was held at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. w. R. shrimp
last Sunday when the entire fami-
ly, the sons and daughters and the
grandchildren were all at home. This

phone line to the Shivers ranch.
S. Gissel lost head of young
cattle with black leg last week. DR..
Ray Hurd was called out and used
the vaccine on the rest of the cattle.
AS election is drawing near We
have many things to think of and
figure out which way to cast our bal
lot. so that it will best help us in
our business, just as others do. Now
let us look at some things which 1
appeal to us here in this valley.
First the pure seed law, and how it
has affected us in the selling of al.al-
ia seed, next the pure food law and
it's effect on our poultry raising and
why the turkey business dropped
off as it has right here and why
our farmers can not kill and sell
their hogs and cattle direct to
the consumer. without the present
n think 4
things over and on next Tuesday gov
ern ourselves as our best judgment
dictates We must make the best of
the opportunity to cast our ballot
right, or as near so, as we can. There
are other things to be considered, we
want n County Commissioner who
will look things up and know what
he is doing and not put herd law
right in the center of the range and
where no one can possibly be bene-
fitted, but many farmers and stock
raisers injured and many thousands
of dollars of taxable property drtv-
en- out of this county, as is the case
in Sand Hollow. Let us, as farmers
brighten up to conditions.
Mir. and Mrs. Jasper Roe and
children were visiting in Payette
Saturday.
IS. Bolton left Monday for Cam
briaye to look after his sheep as
they are in pasture there and viii
move them to the ranch in the near
future.
