Would Make Idaho Taxless

Senator w. w. Davis, president of
the First National Bank of. American
Falls, would like to see Idaho tax
less. A great many Of US would like
to, see the same thing. HpweNer
Senator Davis has a method by which
the contamination. can be accomplish
ed. In an address delivered before
the, last meeting. OF the state bankers
association he, put forth his plan. His
idea, IS to dispose, Of the state lands.
He stated that by. selling, pyramiding,
reinvestiqG the, interest, ETC., at the
end Of ~ years the state would have
$9O,913,0 which at per cent would
produce an annual revenue Of $37,9l3,-
00Q Senator Davis. ingeniously works
out thu financial, end Of the
proklelA so that, commencing, at, once
the taxpayer would begin to feel re-
lief. Within II years the taxes, could
be reduced, 40 per cent. The billions
the; state. would have at the emo of
say 100 years is Of no present impor-
tance. Few, of US will be alive at that
time to collect the dividends. How
ever there. is no question but. the state
owned lands should be disposed Of
more rapidly. BY. doing so an an
nual revenue would accrue to. the
state. More important than that it
would induce immigration and de-
velopment. Idaho needs more peo-
pie. Senator Davis" says we need

when interviewed. "The land is To-
Gated on the rolling foothills and for
Is miles out offAmerican Falls in one
direction a great wheat field greets
ons's' view. When dry farm land;
which probably. never can or, will
be irrigated, brings $3.50 per acre,
it must be the. very best wheat land
And that is what it is. After that
sale l took ride over that new and
promising dry farm country and |
want otell you-it is great sight. A
total. of 100000 acres of the finest
grade dry farm wheat will be har-
vested off that land this year"
A few years ago dry farminug was
the. most hazardous thing that the
farmer attempted. He got a crop
about once every three years. At that
time cultivation and summer following
was unthouaht of. The farmer plant
ed his grain and trusted to luck. AS
usual when trusting to luck he lost
in, the, long. run. Now it is entirely
different. Dry; farming is a success
and as sure as farming under any 9TH
er manner where conditions are right.
The entire southeastern part of the
state has. dry farmed successfully for.
many years. 1t is. understood that

HIGH SCHOOL SPECIAL.


Owing to an oversight OF the writer
last week. the word Chronicle was
used instead of Special as was in
tended. Hereafter these notes will be
known as the Hight School Special"
The question is now being discuss
ed by the teachers and pupils as to
whether the school board should furn-
ish the material used by the manual
tanning and sewing classes and the
article when finished be sold. or that
each Individual pupil should furnish
his own material and be allowed to
keep the finished a rtic1e. The senti-
ment of the majority seem to be In
favor of furnishing their own material
and keeping whatever is made.
