MILLS THE HYPNoTIST
PROVES A SUCCESS

The hypnotic show given at the Pa
vilion last night by Mills was a rous-
ing success from start to finish. Mr..
Mills proved to be one of the best enter
tanners the patrons of the Pavilion have
seen in long while His work was
clean and done with a snap that won
him favor from the start. He put the
subjects through series of tests that
would prove to the most hardened skep-
tie that it was impossible for them
to be anything but hypnotized
Mr.. Mills proved to be so strong a
drawing card that it was impossible to
accommodate all the patrons who came
The management were obliged to turn
away nearly as many as were lucky
enough to get into the theatre. Owing
to this fact, the management will with
out doubt give Mr.. Mills a return date
in the near future.

OLD WOOSTER BOYS
HAVE A REUNION

Some of the "Old Wooster Boys"
have had convivium the last few
days. There is DR.. Boone of the class
of "a; bigger. finer boy is hard to
find. Perhaps some of you know him
the president of the College of Ida
no. Then we see Dr. R. M. Donald
son of the class of '85. 1t is just nip
and tuck between these two to know
which is the bigger, finer boy. There
too, is Ex-Governor Morrison of the
class of ~. He is about as large as
the other two gentlemen-about as
big boy and real fine fine fellow
too. These boys tell stories of what
they used to do in college at Wooster
University; it is hard to tell which one
was the greatest boy then. And since
that time the very hairs of their heads
are being, numbered-one by one
plucked out and not put back. All
three have wives-no better could be
found. Of course this does not an
swer the stion-who numbered the
hair? And these boys are all trying
in their way to make the world bigger
and better. If you get chance to
hear any of them speak do not miss
the opportunity.

S. M. Coffin was called upon for a
few words and responded very happi-
ly. He said that while he had visited
every city of any prominence in the
state, he had yet to know any COM
mercial body with the enterprise and
public spirit found in Caldwell. The

the way that the members backed up

Dried Potatoes The Next Thing

Dried Potatoes The Next Thing.
Idaho farmers will be interested in
dried potatoes. Drying potatoes IN a
new industry originated and developed
in Germany. 1t has already become of
great commercial Importance In 1907
there were ll8 factories in Germany.
There are now 4O4. The dried oorato
is used for stock food. Only tile culls,
except when the bottom has dropped
out of the market are used.
There are two types of drying ap-
paratus on the market. The one pro-
duces the so-called potato "schnitzel"
which is made into pieces about as
thick as a small lead pencil aud dry
ing it under very intense heat. The
other produces what is known rs po-
tato "focken" flakes. In this latter
method the potatoes are first cooked
by steaming and then mashed and
dried by passing between hot rollers
by steam Since the rollers are placed
near one another the mass passes be-
tween like sheet of paper. The heat
causes them to adhere to the exterior
walls of the rollers and the motion of
the machine is so regulated that they
are completely dried before the rollers
have half completed the revolution. 2
knives on the outside of the rollers
cut off the dried mass, which has a
bright yellowish-white appearance, a
good smell, and forms a course sort of
potato meal.
In the drying of the raw potatoes,
the shredded pieces are first exposed
to very great temperatures, often as
+ s~L I n
Fa'h.r), as they are carried slowly
through long chamber constantly de-
crasing. When they go into the dry
ing chamber as raw potatoes they con-
tain IS to 80 per cent water, and when
they come out as the dried product or
"schnitzel" they contain IL to Is per
cent water. In the manufacture of the
flocken such high temperatures are not
necessary, as the potatoes are first
cooked, but when finished they contain
approximately the same amount OF
water as the schintzel
The dried potatoes of both kinds are
used for food for sheep, swine, horses
and cattle Although used for all kinds
of live stock dried potatoes are used
more largely for hogs. They may
be used in place of corn entirely and
are said to be practically as good. By
drying danger from frost is entirely
done away with In addition the
weight is reduced about three-fourths
so that the cost of transportation is
reduced in like proportion, and the
surplus in one section can be shipped
to other sections of the country. In
Germany the cost of drying pototoes
ranges from $3.50 to $3.50 per ton
They have been used long enough that
the food value is known. The indus
try is no longer an experiment.

More Enlarged Homesteads.
nr~A~n E.>->A 4

Congressman Burton L. French has
introduced a bill in Congress provid-
ing for the designation of $4,000 acres
of land in Idaho, as available for EMERY
under the enlarged homestead bill,
which was passed by Congress four
years ago. Under the enlarged homes
tead law 800 acres of land may be
taken up and the residence feature of
the homestead law is done away with.
In Utah large areas have been so de-
signated and the entrymen may reside
within 50 miles of the land Congress-
man French proposes to so designate
some 5000 acres and permit of resi-
dence within 20 miles. There are large
tracts of land that cannot be irrigated
but can be dry farmed. In order to
dry farm successfully the farmer must
have at least twice as much land as
where he irrigates. This was one rea-
son for the enlarge homestead. AS
these tracts are isolated and in many
cases water for culinary purposes can
not had the residence feature OF
the homestead law was changed. All
the land available to the settler under
the enlarged homestead law in this
state has been filed upon.
In southeastern Idaho, in Adams,
Idaho and Boise counties, irrigation
is not needed for wheat and other pro-
ducts although they are considered
and are semi-arid. The land in these
sections of the state should be put
under cultivation at the earliest pos
sible moment

of gold values contained in the gravel
can be made at cost of not to ex-
coed 7 cents per cubic yeard. Shovels,
operated either by steam or electric
power are used to loosen up the ground
and carry it to a central point, where
the sand is screened through a fine
room containing the machinery and
appliances necessary for the final saw
ing. Numerous efforts have made to
recover the gold by the dredging pro-
cess, but owing to the extreme fineness
of the gold, up to this time it has been
found impossible to make any material
or profitable saving. According to re-
ports of work done with the Rowdon
process by one of the largest testing
plants in the west, this ground has
yielded GO per cent of the values con-
tanned in the gravel, showing a gross
saving of about IA cents per ton.
1t Is estimated that plant to treat
1000 tons of ground day can be con-
structed for about $4,000, and that
the operating expenses will not ex-
coed 7 cents per cubic yard, which will
leave handsome profit. The River
view Concentrating Company is oroan-
lied tor $50,UUO.OO capitalization. The
process is attracting considerable at
tention, and if it proves a success in
a commercial way, as anticipated by
the inventor, there is hardly a ques-
ton that great areas of placer ground
in various -arts of the country, which
are enormously rich in gold, but of
such fine character that it cannot y
recovered by the old methods, will be-
come productive in the near future.

Taxpayers GET a Refund.

Judge E. L. Bryan of the Seventh
Judicial District has enjoined the
county assessor and tax collector OF
Bannock county from collecting any
more than six and fve-tenths mills on
the dollar of Pocatello's tax levy OF
ten mills for the redemption of out
standing warrants Pocatello, like all
other counties, spent more money than
was raised by taxation. Warrents
were issued for the payment of claims
The city council decided to wipe out
the outstanding warrent indebtedness
and make levy of ten mills for
that purpose. Taxpayers sought an
Injunction from the district court. AS
Judge Bulge was disqualified Judge
Bryan was called in. Judge Bulge held
that the city's 20 mill levy for general
fund purposes, which was also at
tackled, was invalid. The 1O-mill levy
was held invalid. In view of the fact
that many taxpayers paid their taxes
the question arises as how the refund
is to be made and if it is to be made
to all property owners. Pocatello law
yers are of different opinions. Some
hold that the refund can be made by
the tax collector on the order of the
board OF county commissioners to
every taxpayer; others that only those
who paid under protest can get the
refund; a third firm holds that col
lection can be made only by individual
suits.
