Lincoln County times. (Jerome, Idaho) 1911-1919, 1913-10-09

Three quarters of million acres
of public lands were restored to en-
try last week says the Press Bulletin
Of the United States Geological sur
vev. These reStOratiOns were based
upon recommendations made by the
Survey a a result of its classitica-
ton work in the western states.
The largest restoration was in Mon
tana. where 525,747 acres were re-
stored to public entry as the result
of coal classificatiOns completed. In
California, Idaho and Washington
,S24 acres heretofore reserved for
water power, were restored, eNami-
nation having indicated that they
are not valuable for the purpose for
which they were withdrawn. The
Survey has also classified as non
irrigable and designated for entry
under the enlarged homestead acts
more than 200, 900, 900 acres o
lands in those western states I,
which the 320-acre homestead prin
ciple has been extended by Con
gress.

Shoshone. to accommodate the large
crowds from that section.
On Friday GOV. Haines, made
special trip from Boise to be in at
tendance at the fair. lie was met
at the depot and escorted to the
grounds where ne was shown through
the different sections, expressing
much surprise at the magnitude and
superior quality of the exhibits, and
pronouncing the exhibition through
out a grand success. An somewhat
informal reception was afterwards
rendered the Governor at the Inn,
at which time he had occasion to
meet many of our citizens and con-
gratulate them on their success in
inaugurating such a successful and
meritorious exhibition of the pro-
ducts of this new section. The
! Governor returned to Boise in the
evening, not however, before assur-
ing our people that the trip had
been very enjoyable and profitable
to him
Now a word of praise to the man
agement. The local officers deserve
much credit for the successful anC
satisfactory manner in which they
have conducted the affairs of tn,
association, some of them sadl,
neglecting their private business t.
attend to the duties imposed upoI
them by the association. Thes
officers however, are 10th to accep
any hOnors without first giving du
credit to the directors from the othe
counties for their hearty co-opera
ton and assistance, and assurin
e them the same hearty support fror

d coming Tri-County Fairs.

Fine Exhibits Ideal Weather! Large CrOWdS!I
Combine to Make it the Most Successful Ex-
hibition Of the Kind Ever Before
Held in the State.


There are times when a writer
feels incompetent 10 do a subject
the justice that the merits of il de
serve, and we find ourselves in this
predcaiment in attempting to des
cribe the glowing success which at |
tended the first Tri-COunty Fair |
which was held at jerome last week |
The gates have been closed and the |
management are now busily engaged
in settling up the financial obliga-
tions incurred, with the happy con-
ISOLATION that they have sufficient
funds to meet all these obligations
in full, and while the business end
will soon be forgotten, remembrance
OF the best fair ever held in the
state will linger long in the minds
Of those who were privileged to look
upon the fine exhibits displayed in
every department.
In pronouncing it the best fair
ever held in the state. we are not
relying on our own observations or
OF those locally interested, but we
are simply reiterating the express
sions OF visitors from near and far.
who have had occasion to attend
many of the fairs held in the state.
Even Gov. Haines who honored the
fair with his presence on Friday,
stood awed with amazement before
the exhibits of grain and farm pro-
ducts. which he pronounced as equal
il not surprising anything he had
ever before witnessed.
Visitors from the east who chanced
to be present, looked with some de-
gree Of credulity upon the spcci-
mems OF oats that yielded over lOC
bushels per acre, wheat that would
average nearly 80 bushels per acre,
corn that produced more from one
acre than can be raised on two acres
Of Iowa soil, (and this is not con-
sidered as a corn section) potatoes
that yielded upwards of 400 bush
els per acre, and where at digging
time the sacks are so thick on th'
ground that one could almost wall
over the field on them withou
touching the earth; pumpkins tha
weighed 100 pounds, squash OF al
most equal size, and other vegeta
bies OF like proportion, to say moth
ing of the fruits and other product
OF the farm.
The fame of the fair was not con
lined to local enthusiasts but tn
great achievements of the Mort
Side tract as evidenced by the eS
exhibits shown, was heralded in tn
columns of the daily press at Bois
which had representative on tn
grounds.
But some will wonder why a
this ado over an ordinary county
The answer might he that this W.
no ordinary fair. 1t might be col
sldered as such in an old settle
community, but when it is acknow
edged on all hands that the eXhibi
shown here would be classed Mt Il

at the State Fair for farm products,
and would have done the same this |
year had they been allowed to com

which is now divided into three
counties, WED with each other for
these honors, and it was this hearty
cooperation among the three new
counties that made the fair the sue

ty was honored with the trophy
this year, it will be harder matter
to retain it than it was for old Lin
coin county against the state.
1t would give US pleasure to give
q detailed account of the various ex-
hibts did time and space permit,
but will have to content ourselves
with a brief description Of the diff
ferent departments.
