INVENT APPLE
SIZING MACHINE
Psyette Valley Men Demonstrating |
Machine That Promises to be Boon
to Fruit Growers-Sizes Appies
Rapidly and cheapIy.

John Rowge and R. H. Woods have
invented an apple sizing machine
that promises to be of great bene-
fit to apple growers. They have
two machines on exhibition in Pay
cite and are daily demonstrating
what they will do to people that are
interested. 1t is impossible to des-
cribe the machine but when once
seen in operation it convinces the
most skeptical that il will do the
work and do it properly.
The arrangement is such that the
apples when sized are presented at
once to the packer who can grade
and pack them without further NOV.
ing. The capacity of the machine at
present is something over SIX hund-
red boxes per day. A similar ma
chine has been used by Mr.. Woods
on his ranch this year sizing his ap-
pies and so far has given the best OF
satisfaction and has been OF untold
advantage in assisting him TO get
his apples cheaply and properly
sized.
The machine is not on the market
for sale but the inventors Will lease
them to growers who desire to use
them. Many growers who have wilt
messed the work OF the machine de-
clare that 1t win revohtionize APP
pie sizing and be of inestimable val
ue to fruit growers.

REPORT OF PoRTIA
CLUB RECEPTION

By far the most enjoyable event
ever given for the teachers of this
city, was the reception given them
on Monday evening by the Portia
Club, and planned by the Education
al, Reception and Entertainment
Committees. These committees
worked unitedly and harmoniously
to make the reception success and
success it surely was.
By pre-arrangement Sec. Harader OF
the Commercial Club placed his Of
lice rooms at the disposal of the
teachers where they enjoyed a get
acquainted time for a few minutes.
The club rooms never locked more
inviting and bright fire was burn
ing in the fireplace.
Mrs. Maule, chairman of the Edu-
cational Committee, presided. Mr..
Shontz very kindly favored the guests
with selections on the pianola. Mrs.
Scritchfield gave the first welcom-
ing address. on behalf of the Portia
Club. Mayer Compton brought greet
ings on behalf of the city. In the alb
sence of the President OF the Gem
mercial Club. Mr.. Harader in a few
words conveyed welcome from
the Commercial Club. Rev, Smith
on behalf of the Ministerial Associa=
ton earnestly welcomed the teach
ers to any or all the churches. His
welcome included toasts for the
teachers that helped to break the
formaiity of the evening. which was
completely demolished when Mrs.
McGlinchey responded to surprise
call. Ever at her best when on her
feet and talking. she this time sur
passed herself. Mrs. Brainard from
a parents standpoint gave a few
earnest thoughts to the teachers and
Mr.. NJ. F. Albert had message to
parents as we'll as to the teachers.
Solos by Mr.. Paul Brainard. Miss
Ruby Landon, Mrs. Brink and Mr..
Nelson, made fine musical pro-
gram. Miss Velma Spaulding was
the accompanist. Mrs. Shontz gave
a reading, THE Teachers Dream"
that had message to the teachers.
Refreshments were served by the
entertainment committee.
One thing learned at the recep-
ton was that the teachers would
be pleased with visits from whole
committees at one time. Chairmen
of Committees should bring this to
their committees. This reception will
probably be an annual affair Of the
club hereafter.

By a vote OF five TO one on Mon
day evening the council took the first
real step toward the formation o.
the local improvement district fo-
the purpose of building cement walks
and curbirg in the city. The vote
was on the passage Of the ordinance
to second reading.
The first action of the council was
moticn carried to disallow the
protests on the ground that the num-
Der protesting did not constitute a
majority OF the property holders of
the district
After passing the ordinance at its
first reading a motion was also pass
ed that the council as a committee
on the whole get together and go
carefully over the entire district
with a view Of thoroughly getting
at just where any changes should
be made. Wednesday morning OF
this week was decided upon as the
date upon whcih they would thor
oughly canvass the district
4 petition signed by a considera-
Bile number OF property holders on
North Sixth street was presented ask
ing that that street be included IN
the improvement district
Some changes have been made In
the district which win reduce the
amount OF the bonds to be sold TO
something over $4,000. The councH
also announced its intention of di-
gidins this work up and extending 1t
over a period OF several years in o.
der that the contracts may all go
as far as possible to home people
and home labor be employed The
bonds viii re issued in series and
sold only as the work goes in

Advertising
Payette Valley
Potatoes
Frank Hogue Sorting, Grading and
Packing Hosue's Improved Russett
Potato-shippine in Fancy Brand
ed Sacks-Guaranteeins Quality,
Flavor and Size.

, Payette Valley has long been fam
Gus for its fruit and putting out a
good pack and fine quality Of fruit.
Now it seems that Idaho potatoes
are going to be put on the map and
receive some excellent advertising
from the manner in which Frank
Hogue is putting his own special
brand of Hogue's Improved Russett
potatoes on the market. This year
Mr.. Hogue raised a considerable ton
mage Of potatoes for the purpose Of
putting them on the eastern market
Contrary to the usual method he Is
not just sacking them in the fled
without regard to size and condition
A large force of men is engaged at
the old Moss warehouse in cles nirg,
grading and sorting these potatoes
and getting them ready for the
cars.
Four grades are being put out. The
potatoes are first screened and all
dirt and foreign substances removed.
They are then serted down exactly
to size and approximately so many
of each size arec ontained in a sack.
The sacks in which they are shipped
are all new sacks of a fancy design
with one side printed giving the
name, ''Hogue's Improved Russett,"
the grade, etc, in large letters. In
each sack is put an envelope con-
tanning a circular letter giving
history of Hogue's Improved Rus
sett potato, what constitutes the diff
ferent grades and numbers and
where they may be obtained.
1t is only necessary for one TO
watch the manner in which they
are being put up to become assured
that buyers of this brand OF fancy
potatoes are going to get their mon
ey's worth and that Idaho potatoes
and especially Payette Valley pota-
toes are going to be on the map
from now on.

PETITION CANYON COUNTY
TO BUILD BRIDGE
Delegation from Payette Valley Ap-
peared before Commissioners Thurs
day and Asked for Appropriation to
Build Bridge Across Big Willow.

A delegation from Payette Valley
went to Caldwell Thursday to meet
with the county commissioners to
discuss a very important matter con-
corning the New Plymouth Payette
River bridge. The direc tors of Road
Dist. No. were with the delegation
and the problem to settle was the
matter of a bridge across Big Willow
Greek, just across the river from the
new bridge. The new county briege
is directly opposite the confluence
of the Payette River and Big Willew
Creek and unless bridge can be se-
cured across Big Willow Greek the
new county bridge across the Fay
ette will be practically useless.
1t will cost according to rough
estimates not less than $500 to
build the Willow Creek bridge and
this amount would bankrupt the coun-
ty bridge fund and for that reason
the county commissioners will of
necessity be backward about build
ing the bridge and the people of
road district No. / contend that the
county should build the bridge.
There seems to be some question
as to whether the place is within
the road district or not and the resi-
dents of that section contend that
they petitioned two years ago to be
relieved from the road district, but
it seems their petition was not act
ed upon and now they are anxious
to know what disposition was made
OF their petition and as to who will
build the new bridge, the county or
road district No. /.

whistle was blown to besir. On try
ing it over they pushed ,Ste2fen over
on the second down for 9 points and
he added another by kicking gcal.
After see-sawirg back and forth for
a while in the second half the local
warriors began TO edge closer to
the opponents goal and while about
twenty yards away covered tie di,-
tance by a forward pass from Ste
en- to Goodwin. The goal was m s.
ed and the score stood Is to 0.
Easing up little after their SIC
cess the local boys gave Caldwell a
chance anC after being pe-al'zed tif-
teen yards they were pushed back
to their goal line where Caldwe
went over for points on the fourth
down. Time was called with the
ball in Payette's possession in Cald-
well territory.
