has PLAN FOR ROADS
Former Resident Makes Suggestions
to County.

John Janney, well known pioneer OF
TINS tract and an engineer of great
ability, has come forward with a plan
FOR road improvement that is worth
tie attention OF the county commits
sloners. In an interview with the
Times Mr.. Janney gave in brief some
tLlng OF his idea for road betterment.
The basis for the plan is the rounded
and dragged road, but on top of that
MI. Janney's plan should be success
1ul IN keeping the roads free from dust
and firm and hard in all kinds of
weather. Instead OF the usual fifty
feet OF turnpike his plan is to cut this
down to twenty-siX feet of rounded
surface. The other twenty-four feet
to be used twelve feet on each side for
parking sown with white clover with
a ditch dividing it from the road sur
face. The white clover, besides keep
ing down the weeds which make the
highways so unsightly at present, can
be cut for seed at the close of the sea
son and give the rancher a profit for
his trouble. Trees which would give
splendid shade could be placed close
to the fence and still allow the cutting
OF the clover. By the judicious use of
water In the bitches along the road the
seepage would aid in binding the sur
race. Mr.. Janney made a further
statement that he would agree to make
the experiment along the road by his
ranch and guarantee to have a better
road at less expense than any other
portion of the county if the commits
sioners will meet him half way in the
matter The best way to test the eff
ficiency of his plan for general use
will be to accept his offer, watch re-
suits and find the exact cost of such
work per mile of road. Mr.. Janney
has had great deal of experience in
road work and is confident that his
plan is feasible.

Will HATCH FRY
FOR THE MARKET
Company Incorporates to Ud-
lie Sand Springs
WILL CREATE FISHING RESORT
NEAR RIVERSIDE.
Judge UrhIaub and II. W. Alfred
Are Among Backers of the Enter
prise.

Fish for the market and fry to sup
ply private streams will be the aim of
new company which has applied for
state charter. 1t will be known as
the Sand Springs Land Company of
Buhl, with four men as its hackers,
Russ Alfred, F. N. Uhrlaub, Fl. G. Cole
man and w. l.. Coltharp. The COM
pany will stock the we'll known Sand
springs on the Snake river and will
also build small hatchery to keep
the stream well stocked. Fish for the
market will be another of the pur-
poses of the corporation which is max
ing its capital stock $4,000.
The springs will be made into a
popular resort with tents for lodging
and supplies for the visitors, if the
plans of the originators of the pro-
jects are carried out. The springs,
which are part of the same formation
which creates the beautiful Thousand
Springs, have been novel sight for
the tourists for the past ten years.

AFTER A WARE
HOUSE FOR PEAS
Commercial Club Talks With
Ferry Representative
L. d. COULTER OF SEED FIRM IN.
VESTIGATES TRACT.
Large Acreage of Seed Peas Makes
Storage and Sorting of Peas
Necessity.

The Commercial club is getting busy
today in attempting to interest the d.
NJ Ferry Seed company in building a
storage warehouse for the bumper
crop of seed peas which it will get
from this tract. The matter is being
put up to L. D. Coulter, superintend-
ent of the company for this state, who
is in the city today and it will be dis
cussed with the board of directors.
The advantages of the plan from the
standpoint of the tract are manifold
in that it allows the sorting of the
peas before shipping, cutting out the
freight on culls. Besides it will give
employment to large number of girls
in this city while the harvest season is
on and leave a payroll. 1t is to the
advantage of the company in that it
can save expensive handling in load
ing direct to the cars with the usual
demurrage charges and attendant
grief
Already one pea company has de-
cided to adopt this plan and the Roger
Seed company has started twenty
thousand dollar storage and sorting
warehouse at Idaho Falls, where big
seed pea acreage is expected this year.

Oklahoma Man Investigates the
Finances of City
HIGHLY PLEASED WITH CONDI.
TIONS UPON THE TRACT.
]. A. Kidd. of Lenapah, Okla,
viii Apply for Charter from the
State.

j. A. Kidd, for eighteen years en-
gagged in banking in Lenapah, Okla
homa, has been in this city for several
days this week looking over the field
for bank. In an interview with the
Times Mr.. Kidd stated that the Twin
Falls country looked good to him and
that he considered the field large
enough for another bank. He author
lied the Times to state that he would
apply for charter and begin organi-
zation as soon as the state granted the
same.
1t will be the intention of Mr.. Kidd
to interest local capital in the bank
and the amount of capitalization will
be fixed when his associates here are
consulted in the matter. Mr.. Kidd
stated that it would be at least fifty
thousand dollars and that available
capital would be forthcoming to make
it one hundred thousand if necessary.
Mr.. Kidd, who is accompanied by
his wife and neice, has some very fine
recommendations as a business man
from the bankers of his section and
should prove valuable addition to
the business circles of the city.
At present there are two applica-
tions for charters for banks in this
city, besides the present one, which
will go forward this week. One is
made by G. A. Robinson and the other
by the Kuhn interests.

REACH DISSOLUTION AGREEMENT
U. p. Plan Submitted to the Federal
Court.

Washington, June 2S.-Attorney
General McReynolds and representa-
tives of the Union Pacific have reach
ed an agreement for the dissolution
OF the Hartman merger. The princi-
pies OF the plan are in harmony with
the views of President Wilson and he
is expected to approve it. 1t will be
submitted Monday to the judges of the
Eighth circuit federl court at st. Paul
The plan will go to the court with
the governments approval, qualified
only by the request that the judges
give limited time before entering the
final decree during which the govern
ment may possibly make objections
which cannot be foreseen. Mercy
nclds does not expect to go to ST. Paul,
but will send G. G. Todd, special as
sistant, who has been associated in
the negotiations.
McReynOlds said he was not ready
to discuss the situation or the details.
1t is understood, however, that the
plan will provide for exchanging $685.
100000 of Southern Pacific stock held
by the Union Pacific for the Pennsyl-
vania's interest in the Baltimore &
Ohio and the sale of the remaining
$8S 100000 of Southern Pacific through
the medium of trust company under
such safeguards as will end the con-
troll of the Southern Pacific by either
the Union Pacific or it's shareholders.
AS the plan of dissolution does not
provide for the separation of the
Southern and Central Pacific officials
the department of justice reiterated
that McReynOlds later on would bring
a civil antitrust suit to accomplish
that result.-Capital News.

LAW IS AGAIN CONSTRUED
No Limit to Amount Of Liquor Private
Individual May Have.

A great deal of confusion has re-
suited in the matter of the amount of
liquor private individual may have
in his possession, this confusion being
brought about on account of the
Haight law, passed at the recent ses-
sion of the legislature. The confusion
was added to by the bulletin issued re-
Gently by the state druggists associa-
ton, which stated that the amount of
intoxicating liquor person might
have in his possession for private us
was one gallon and the amount of beer
was limite& to one case of "a quart
bottles.
Now it develops that the law was
amended and there is no limit on the
amount of liquor an individual may
have in his possession for private use
provided you can get it into Idaho.

RAIN DFTfRS fXCURSIONISTS
Only Few Enjoy Delightful Trip to
Riverside.

The proposed auto excursion to
Riverside and Thousand Springs
planned by Judge Urhlaub and l.. A.
Burson for last Sunday, was rather
poorly patronized, owing to the threat
ening weather of the day previous and
doubt, as to the condition of the roads.
However, five or six automobiles made
the trip and the excursionists are en-
thusiastic in praise of the treatment
accorded them. The dinner provided
at Riverside came in for it's share of
enconioums together with the splen-
did work done on the roads by the
boosters at Buhl and Riverside. Other
excursions will be made later in the
season

Respondent in both argument and
brief pointed out that limited the pow
er of the conal company to the actual
operation of the irrigation system,
might at any time destroy the values
that had been created in the Twin
Falls country. 1t Is pointed out that
through the existence of the canal,
and its operation, about 100000 acres
OF land had been made extremely val
liable and productive, several towns
had been built and a large amount of
wealth had been created. It was also
shown that in the event of a great
disaster to the dam, washing it out,
that unless the company was able to
borrow money, and give ample secur-
ity, the damage could not be replaced,
and that without the reconstruction of
the dam and ditch system 1t would be
but very few years until the Twin
Falls tract would return to its original
desert condition.-Statesma
