Is a Good Loser.

Jim Knee of Big Willow creek is a
good old sport. His ranch, it will
be remembered, was swept by the
flood caused by a cloud burst few
weeks ago, and he lost his hay, quite
a number of hogs, his chickens and
much of his farm machinery. He was
in town Monday with the same smile.
He will in couple of weeks move
with his family to New Plymouth in
order that the children may attend
school. He tells story on Sam Lit
tie that is too good to keep. When
the second cloudburst occurred Sam
was driving along the road. He man.

steep hill in time to avoid the angry
waters, but he was so badly frighten-
ed that for some reason or other
ne changed his trousers, which were
ater found by Mr.. Knee.

In Runaway.

Tom Fault is nursing a very pain
fully bruised and wrenched arm and
shoulder sustained in a runaway.
The accident happened Friday when
he and j. c. Surber were driving from
the hay field. The bride of one of the
horses came off and the team started
home. Mr.. Surber jumped, but Tom
stayed, thinking he could stop the
horses mad flight by his wonderful
powers of persuasion, but his persuad-
er wasn't working to it's full capacity,
and Tom landed head on in the field
when the wagon struck an irrigation
ditch. Mr.. Fault says he has been in
many tight and dangerous places in
his life, but this is the first time his
persuader failed to do its work.

PRUNE PACKING ON
Three Plants Running Now-Another
Next Week.

The prune harvest started Monday.
Three packing houses are running full
blast. Hartley has force of about
40 in the old Crosson store building.
The FruitAssociation is using its stor-
age warehouse and has 25 at work,
and Arthur Richards is packing at the

had shipped a carload day up to last
night, but this will be more than
doubled hereafter.
The Max Mayfield Co., which will
handle the Hayes crop, will start up
Monday morning in the old packing
house. E. K. Hayes will superintend
both the picking and the packing.
The dealers are up in the air about
prices. At the Fruit Association it is
reported that Chicago commission
men are quoting $2.25 to $3.50. C.
P. Hartley predicts the price will aver

COrt Pyle Dead.

News of the death of Cort Pyle al
Redonda Beach, Calf, Saturday night
came as severe shock to his many
Emmett friends, and deep sorrow is
expressed on every hand over his un-
timely demise. Mr.. Pyle had lived in
this city for about 10 years, coming
here from Smith Center, Kan. Hd
clerked for Frank Crosson for num-
ber of years and held similar posi-
tion for several years prior to his last
sickness. He was always courteous
and cheerful and was very popular.
As man and citizen he was honest,
clean, conscientious. He leaves be-
hind a widow and two sons, to whom
the deepest sympathy is expressed by
their Emmett friends.

Green Prunes Hurt prices.

The quotations on sales of Idaho and
Washington Italian prunes was sur
prise to local growers. The Washing
ton prunes brought 80 cents to SIPS
a crate and the Idaho prunes rs cents
to 81. Inquiry elected the informa-
tion that the difference is accounted
for as claimed by the fact that the
Idaho prunes were too green.
"The trouble of some of our ship
pers," said this authority, "is that they
are in too big a hurry to ship. In
their zeal to reach the market early
they send their prunes off green and
into markets already supplied by full
ly matured fruit from Walla Walla
and Milton. They should wait until
the fruit from those sections is dis
posed of, when theirs would be more

EMMETT WILL MAKE
AN EXHIBIT
Fruit Will be Prominent Feature
at State and County
Fairs.

Emmett's fruit will, as usual, be a
prominent. feature at the Canyon
county and Boise fairs. OF course,
there will be other products in the ex-
hibit, but fruit will be the central fig
ure, and the fair officials are warned
right now to provide "dribbling YES
sels," because there will be lots of
mouths that will water.
A definite decision was. reached
Tuesday evening by the Commercial
Club. That prince of boosters, Chas.
Gamage, was appointed director of ex-
hibits and he will have full charge of
the campaign. He accepted the job
only after strenuous persuasion. An
Emmett fair exhibit without Charlie
Gamage would be about like peach
cobbler without peach. He it was
who put the sit" in Emmitt.
Outside of few samples of field
corn Emmett will make no grain dis
play. The exhibit will consist of fruit
lilrdep truck But that's enough.

VAN WYCK MAN Att
TEMPTS SUICIDE !
George Hanson Sends Bulle
Through His Body
VIII Recover.

George Hanson, bartender in the
Carter saloon at Van Wyck, attempted
suicide Sunday morning by shooting
himself through the body with a 49,
caliber Lueger revolver. He will re-
cover unless complications set in.
News of the near tragedy reached
town late Sunday afternoon in a tele-
phone message to DIR. Clark, request
ing his services in treating the injur-
ed man. The trip was made in an au-
to from the Blurrton garage, driven
by young Al White, and Van Wyck
was reached early the next morning.
Hanson was found with a bullet hole
through his body. He had placed
the muzzle of a 32-caliber revolvej
at his left side and fired. Evidentl1
he had intended the shot for his hear
but he missed it by less than two id
ches. The ball passed entirely
through his body, then plowed through
the frame walls of the building, pass
ed through one side of the Coonrod
barn, 100 yards distant, and buried
itself in the studding in the opposite
side. No vital parts were touched,
and it is not believed that any serious
results will follow.
Hanson was communicative, and
refused to give any reasons for his
rash act. Gossip at Van Wyck is to
the effect that domestic troubles were
the cause. He is well known through
out this section. Last year he worked
for the forest service, being under
Larry Phelan, and he was liked by his

WATCH YOUR HOGS
County Farm Advisor Cautions Hog
Raisers to be Vigilant.

H. A. Ireland, county farm advisor
was in town Monday to make an in
vestigation of the disease which eff
fects hogs belonging to a farmer not
far from town.
After thorough diagnosis he is
fearful the swine are suffering from
the same disease which has wrought
such havoc to hogs near Caldwell and
other Boise valley points. Strict
measures have been taken in this case
to guard against spread of the infec-
tion if such it shall prove to be. He
advises hog raisers to watch their
herds closely and take prompt meas
ures to nip the disease in its incipiency
if it shall appear.

DR.. Clark and Al White had siren
uous trip. They went over the Dry
Buck road. While ascending the Dry
Buck summit, the grade was so steep
that no gasoline could be supplied to
the engine and it went dead. A camp
er who had team of horses, was ap4
pealed to to pull them over the hill
but he refused them any assistancd
whatever, in spite of the fact that the
urgency of their mission was ex-
planned to him. So they were com
PEELED to push the car up the hill by
main strength and they were COM
pletely exhausted when the summit
was reached. The trip from Emmett
to the foot of the hill was made in
three hours, and three hours was re-
quired to push the car to the top of
the hill. DIR. Clark's son Floyd was
of the party.

Sewer Commission Amounted.

At last evenings council meeting
Mayor Cummings appointed Guy B.
Mains and W. L. Powell and reap
pointed E. E. Stanley as members of
the sewer committee, which will have
charge of the building of the proposed
new sewer. 1t is hoped the committee
will get busy and be ready to start
work this fall. The city's
health demands it.

A serious oversight was made in
not having Emmett" printed on the
crates of the fruit boxes, and it would
appear that Payette will be given the
credit of producing some of the fruit
grown here. This mistake was reme-
died to a large extent on the peach
shipments by using label, which was
pasted on each crate. Precautions
will undoubtedly be taken next year to
avoid a recurrence.

MILLIONS OF PEACHES
BEING SHIPPED
Twenty-Five Carloads Ship
ped Out the Past
Week.

The peach crop is moving in earn
est and the scores of orchards and the
Offices and loading sheds of the Fruit
Association are scenes of wonderful
activity. AT o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon lonb lines of wagons loaded
to the top of sideboards with crates
of peaches were waiting for their turn
to unload their cargos, while at every
available point on the long loading
platform other wagons were discharg-
ing their crates. The loading shed
seemed to be filled to its capacity, but
some way or other room was found
for more. Thousands upon thousands
of crates-how many no one even ven
tured to guess-were waiting to be
loaded into the refrigerator cars.
On the other side of the shed five
big ice cooled cars were lined up and
being filled with fruit. But not a
crate was loaded until it had passed
the inspection of Fred Baisch and re-
ceived his 0. K. No blemished or i'm
perfect fruit or defective pack es-
capped his eagle eye. He was every
where. His duties, many times un-
pleasant, are important Upon his vigi-
lance and frmness depend the reputa-
tion of Emmett's fruit. A few crates
may work an injury to the district
that will require years to efface.
Twenty-Five full carloads of peaches
have been shipped out up to today.
Over 80 per cent of them are Ell |
bertas. And none of finer quality or
more delicious flavor ever grew any
where. Fred Baisch says they are
even better than last year. He says
he has never seen their equal in all
his years of experience. In shape,
size, color, flavor and freedom from
blemishes, they are without a peer
and as near perfection as it is possible
to grow them. His declaration is cor
roborated by c. J. Sincel, the well
known fruit expert of Boise and the
chief fruit inspector for the Oregon
Short Line, who was an interested
spectator of the peach harvest in En-
NETT Friday and Saturday. He said:
"The peach crop at Emmett is the
finest | have ever seen. The peaches
are of large size, perfect form, excel
lent color and are ripening evenly"
About half the carload shipments
are sold inside the state. This week
four carloads were sold f. o. b. En-
nett. One car was for Jerome, an ,
other for Caldwell and two for Boise. 8

Thrifty housewives from the Boise
valley, the lower Payette valley and
other points have moved to the peach
orchards on the Slope, bringing their
camping outfits, stoves, kettles, and
other necessary cooking utensils, and
are canning peaches right on the
ground. There are hundreds in camp
all the time and the scene is unique
and interesting. Nearly every fruit
farm has its quota. They use the
blemished and ripe fruit,
which is rejected by the packers, but
which is frst-class for canning.

Canyons Assessed Valuation
Less Than 1t Was

In spite of the increases made by
the state board of equalization in the
valuations on the 1913 assessment roll
of Canyon county, the total assessed
valuation for this year will be an es-
timated S3,0O0,O00 less than it was
last year. This fact was made plain

Harry Carmichael says the States
man added one cipher to his estimated
value of the peach crop. 1t should
have been 100000 instead of 100000.

ance. For instance, it can make $500
look like 80 cents and cause our es-
