The Family Mans
Hardest Problem

and at the same time the most
important one is the building OF
a suitable home. So much de-
pends on the environment OF
the children that every pre-
caution should be taken for
their comfort and health. Sun
light and fresh air in the home
is neccssary-uniform temper
ature and humidity is also
necessary. These things and
many more have come down to
us through generations gen.
erations when the home was
the making Of our Nation and
the material used in most of
those homes was good Ameri-
can wood-sometimes crudely
cut, but always gives the pre-
ference because of it's fitness to
health and comforts.
Our yard today contains the
same kind Of " sr. but more
perfectly cut .-.u finished so
that the work required Of the
carpenters has been reduced to
the minimum. We want to
show it to you and explain
how you can use It profitably.

NEW DEPOT FOR BLACKFOOT

Officials of the Oregon Short Line
announced Monday evening that the
appropriation for a $4,000 depot al
Blackfoot had been made, and that
it will be built this year. The city
council was requested to pass an or
dinance vacating Pacific and Francis
stteets to enable them to go on with
the plans as heretofore adopted.
B'ackfoot is especially fortunate in
thismatter as Pocatello, Montpelier,
McCammon and a number of other
towns that have been clamoring for
new depots were denied them.
This is the fourth depot allowed
for Bingham county this year, Pin
gree, Sterling, Springfield being the
others.
The new structure at Blackfoot is
to be built of concrete and brick or
concrete and stone, and will be on
the west side, opposite whero it is
now, and when it is completed the
old depot will be moved to where the
stock yards are now, and used for
the freight depot.
One track, the main line, will be
on the east side of the new struct-
ure, and the Mackay and Aberdeen
track will be on the west side, The
dimensions of the building Will be
~ 1872, one story, with a heat
ing plant in the basement. The posit
ion of the various rooms and offices
are as follows, beginning at the south
or southwest end.
Express office, 2Oft. 8 x "a. 6.

oule to prevent draft through the

of this one is thought to

THE CITY BUSINESS

The city council had a sitting Tues
day night and passed an ordinance
closing Pacific and Francis streets
for the new depots, and worked on
some estimates for the city levy taxes
for 1912.
The law at present requires them
to publish certain estimates before
they get it from the assessor, so they
are in trouble.

TO be continued. J

Last Friday evening while Grant
Kness was putting load of hay in the
barn the horse that was hitched to the
cable became frightened at the grinding
of the pulleys and ran away. For a
while it looked as though Ralph the
eleven year old boy who was riding il
would be killed; but when the cable
stopped the horse Ralph shot out from
among the harness and the horses heels
and went ricochetting for some rods over
the ground like a chip over the water.
About twelve square inches of skin was
torn from the boys back, but no bones
were broken. The horse wrecked the
harness and tore loose from the cable
before it could be brought under con.
troll. Now comes the second scene
this stirring act. Mr.. Kness was
aggravated at the horses conduct and
boasted that he would make it work on
the cable. Accordingly it was once
more hitched to it. Mr.. Kness led il
and all went well for two fork fulls,
when again the horse went mad and
started. Kness was unable to manage
it, If he hung to the horse he would
be killed. If he let 90 he was sure to
be caught by the cable. He finally let
go and fell to the mercy of the flying
cable, seventy feet of which was dragged
at tightening speed over his neck and
face burning them into a crust and
nearly tearing his left ear from his head.
The cable then caught hog trough and
