A PARTNERSHIP ELEPHANT

The Pocatcllo Tribune is author
ity for the statement that the COM
miss'onCrs of Bingham and Bcnnocx
counties met at the site of the Tilden
bridge last Saturday and had dis
agreement as to what to do with it.
Another meeting of the two county
boards is to be held tomorrow to
consider the matter.
We are not permitted to refer to
the bridge as white elephant but
we are allowed to say it is partner
ship affair-the partnership existing
between two counties and three com
munities and if reports are true the
matter is drifting into fye-corner-
ed fight.
People in Pocatello want the
bridge so Tilden people can go there
to trade. Merchants in the Tilden
country want the bridge so the In
dians can cross over to Tilden and
trade. Blackfoot people are said to
be indifferent because the advantag-
es and disadvantages to them are
about equal, but being good lot OF
folks they like for everybody to
have everything they want
Some want to repair the bridge
where it is, some want to rebuild
it by the side of the present bridge,
and some want it rebuilt at some
other point but they do not know
where. Now is the most favorable
time to be working on the job but

HOT WATER FOR BOISE.
Pocatello Tribune.

E. A. Hutchins, representing the
Boise Natural hot water company, ar
rived in Pocatello yesterday on the
limited train and will remain several
days in the Gate City on business.
His company holds control of 40
acres of ground near the Capital
city, beneath which is located the
source of all the natural hot water
that makes Boise one of the luckiest
cities in the union. The Boise Ar
tesian Hot and cold Water company
owns a we'll from which hot water is
pumped into the city for heating
most of the large buildings there.
The new company, which has secur-
ed a 20 year franchise to compete
with the old company, has been
strongly financed and is now offer
ing a limited lot of stock for sale to
raise funds for the further sinking
of we'll that already flows trem-
endcus volume of hot water. 1t will
be carried by gravity to the city, the
fall being over 200 feet, sufficient
to force it into the top floors of the
highest building in the city. The
investment is most attractive one,
as after the plant is once installed,
the fixed charges will be almost
nothing. The hot water supply of
the old company operating in Boise
is limited, and the demand for the
product of the new company is
therefor clamorous.
Mr.. Hutchins is well known thru
out southern Idaho and eastern Ore
gon, where he for years engaged sue
seccfully in mining operations.

ORCHARD AND POULTRY FARM
ING.

Orchard and poultry are splen-
did combination. Either is depen-
dent one upon the other This is
true in many respects. Orchard con-
ditions are ideal for poultry. The
trees provide shade. Shade is one
of the problems to overcome in a
prairie country. Shade is not only
desirable but necessary and the or
chard provides the very kind of
shade that is desired. The ground
is not all shaded, giving the sun an
opportunity to dry the surface.
Cultivation necessary to maintain
the proper mulch in the orchard Is
very desirable. The frequent cult
Walton of the lands keeps it fresh
and insures against possible disease
so common to poultry as result of
yarding on land without cultivation.
Cultivation is necessary for the
orchard and saves the expense of
cultivating yards that are used for
poultry only
Poultry requires animal feed in
some form. The usual manner is to
buy packing house products which
come very high. This expense is not
so great for birds running in an or

PEAS AND POTATOES PROFIT
ABLE CROPS.

Mark Austin, agricultural super
intendent of the Utah Idaho Sugar
company in Idaho, is in Salt Lake
attending a meeting of the stock
holders of the Price River lrriga-
ton company, in which he is heavily
interested. Speaking of the past years
record in his part of Idaho, Mr.
Austin says the season was very Sc
we're and the returns on peas as well
as potatoes were in many districts
unsatisfactory. The pea crop, from
which so much had been expected,
was not an entire success because
new varieties of peas had been
furnished the farmers. This year
there will be a return to the old
varieties, and farmers feel so con-
fident of these. that they have signed
contracts with the pea companies for
planting about 10000 acres the com
ing spring. If they average % bus
hels to the acre, this would mean
100000 bushels. for which the farm
ers would receive an average of ST.
so per bushel, or total Of $780,
900. Many of the farmers and the
sugar company itself were rotating
beets with peas and found the
change very beneficial to the soil.
The acreage for beets around Sugar
City this spring would be about the
same as last year In the Idaho
Falls and Blackfoot country, the
hardships sustained by the farmers,
who were unable to market their
potato crops last year, had caused
growers to turn to beets which they
realized were the one reliable crop.

the American Farmer where they
hae been thoroughly organized as in
the Kentucky and Virginia tobacco
districts where by following equity
and by being organized they have
brought the prices of raw tobacco as
sold by the farmer from cents to

cost the consumer one cent more

organized Farmers Union in organi-
cation in the south has brought Cot

the most prosperous in the nation to-
day. Farmers of Snake river valley
are getting together in Equity as
they never did before. Fremont,

organized and within 10 days Bing-
ham county will organize with a To-
cal at nearly every shipping station.
A county convention composed of
regularly elected delegates will meet

organization and transact business
that means something to every
farmer in this county. 1t also means
much to our merchants and banks

NOVEL TEST PROPOSED
FOR OLYMPIC AMATEURS

PARIS. FRANCE, Feb. 25.-Baron
Pierre DeLoubertin, president of the In.
ternational Olympic council, advocates a
new scheme to assure the amateur stand
ing OF all Olympic contestants He pro-
poses that all men who take part in the
games be required to swear a solemn oath
to the flag of their country that they are
amateurs.
IF Jim Thorpe he said, had been
called upon to swear upon the Stars and
Stripes that he never violated the rules
of amateurism, 1t is inconceivable that
he would have told lie.
AN Olympic vow such as suggested
would a once do away with the necessity
Of numerous inquiries into the status Of
competitors and athletes would be put
upon their honor"
This is typically a French idea and has
aroused enthusiastic approval from Paris

record policy.

ance on the rank and file of our
athletes" said Foster. "In the case
of McGraw. however we figured
somewhat differently. He had just
signed for five years at a greater
salary than that paid to any other
man in the game, proving that the
New York club fully appreciates his
value.
In case of some unexpected aC-
cident, which would deprive the
Giants of McGraw' services for
ever, it would take at least the full
face value of the policy to provide a
competent successor. Figure it out
any way you wish and the policy
can not be considered unusual in
the light Of McGraw's value.

Clarke is taking things easy, as

is true, he will reach Hot Springs
a little earlier than usual, but he
is always one of the latest to reach
training quarters. And no one will
say that the Pirates have been i'm
properly trained. For more than
ten years the Pittsburg club has
been right up in the first three at
the finish.
IF this early start keeps on, 1t

been designated as an "undesir-

city having been tipped off to the
United States authorities.
Johnson has two nigh powered,
expensive automobiles in Toronto
which were shipped there in ad-
vance of his attempted fight from
the United States. It is intimated
at Toronto that communications
from the department of justice at
Washington to the ottawa author

ing Johnson's entry into Canada.
At any rate, Johnson's arrest at
Battle Creek precipitated the order
for his exclusion. 1t is pointed out
that this is likely to have the eff
