IDAHO SPUD GROWER
BECOMES DETECTIVE

In order to determine Just how badly
he was being robbed and at the same
time show the consumer how he was
being held up, l.. l.. Young. a rancher
residing near Nampa, Idaho, put into
operation unique scheme that
brought astounding results from the
potatoes he raised and sold.
Young is an extensive potato raiser.
After he had harvested his Murphy
crop last fall and while sacking the
potatoes, he placed "A note in the bot
tom of each sack asking the consumer
to be kind enough to write him what
price he paid for the spuds. The po-
tatoes were later sold by Mr.. Young,
who received for them 55 cents sack,
a net profit of 80 cents a sack.
Some time later letters began to
pour in to MIR. Young from all parts of
the United States. The consumers had
found the notes. The several hundred
replies received stated that the con-
sumers had paid prices ranging from
$3.50 to 81 80 a sack for the spuds.
Mr. Young said he expected the mid
dlemen to make reasonable profit,
but that he, as grower, was receiving
such a small fraction of the ultimate
selling price demanded of the buyer as
astounded him.
The revelation has spread among
Idaho growers, many Of whom are CON
tident now that sales direct to the con
sumers would be more profitable all
around.

Professor Harmon Gives Recital

A fair sized audience al the Baptist
church Tuesday evening enjoyed the
recital given by Prof. A. j. Harmon
and his pupils, assisted by Dr. M. II.
Sharp, yiolinist, Edward Hill, reader,
and Miss Alberta, pianist. While the
crowd was not as large as the entertain
ment merited it lacked nothing in ap-
probation, and all were argeed that it
was one OF the most enjoyable even
lngs of the kind so far offered this sea-
son,
Professor Harmon has been at no
small amount of exertion in gathering
and training his Mandolin club, which
is already furnishing splendid enter
tanment and gives promise of much
good work. One feature particularly
noticeable and appreciated by the audi
ence was the unusually perfect time of
the players.
The solos and duets by the first year
pupils are deserving of an espG cial
mention, each one eXcelling on his or
her chosen instrument. However, the
entire program was worthy and called
forth repeated encores. Edward Hill,
the artist, whose ability as reader is
we'll known, gave two readings which
were enjoyed by all, and responded to

Professor Harmon, who is himself an
acknowledged artist. was ably assisted
by DR.. NJ. H. Sharp. who needs no in
PRODUCTION to Hood River. lovers of the
violin. Both we're at their best Tues
day evening and more than pleased
their hearers.
Professor Harmon deserves much
credit for the success of'the recital and
1t is a foregone conclusion that the
next, which he contemplates giving
son, will be well patroniZed.

COUNCIL ORDERS
WALL REMOVED

The most interesting matter coming
before the city council at its Monday
night meeting was the request of the
members of the Benedict Tennis club
that the wall recently constructed on
the Oak street side Of the courts of the
club and which encr0aches on the
street, be allowed to remain until the
club secures new quarters in the coun-
try, which are the present plans of the
organization. f. A. Cram, Harry T.
Dewitt, j. II. Heilbronner and Chas.
Hall, members of the Tennis club, were
present at the meeting. Mr.. Cram
told the councilman that it was not the
purpose of the club to ask the council
men to violate their obligations, but
that the organization had hopes that
the wall, which was built for tempor-
ary purposes, might be allowed to re-
main until the club might be able to
secure new quarters. Councimen A.
C. Staten and J. Il. Robertson ex-
planned that if the council allowed the
wall to remain either by a silent ac-
quiescence or by affirmative action,
they would have many other petitions
for the same privilege.
A motion providing that the wall be
removed but that reasonable time be
given for the work was carried.
The city received a communication
from the Burns Detective Agency an
nounCing that check raising artists
were reported to be working the Hood
River district. The agency asked that
all business men keep careful check on
their checks and checking accounts.
The fire and water committee report
ed that 1t would recommend that the
proposition of the Home Telephone
Company to rent a portion of its build
ing for a water office be not accepted.

cation, because of greater amount of
vault room Tor records. The report
was adopted
The street committee reported that
John Zolls had finished the work of
placing concrete curbs in front of the
property of J. f. Batchelder on State

also recommended that the two small
bells now owned by the city and used
for fire purposes be sold and that a
larger bell be purchased. The commit
tee thinks the new bell should be placed
on the brow of the hill IN the vicinity
Of MontelIo avenue, where it can be

The opportune motion was carried
without a dissenting vote.
Following this number of short
speeches we're made and questions
asked relative to the coming election.
Prof. Mclaughlin told of how the Ii
brary would benefit the pupils of the
high school and grammar grades of the
city and county. "a class at the Park
street school has done more and better
work than any other in the city this
year-and not by the use of text books,
but by the reference books in the IL
brary," he said. "The boys and girls
have taken trips to China and Japan,
and in such a way that they will re-
member them | wish you could read
some of the a lers they have written. ="

Keosauqua Republican: An old
old landmark, dating back to 1852.
was recently torn down at Bloomfield
in order to clean the site for the erec-

from Bloomfield says that the first
services were held in the old building
by a Methodist circuit rider from Keo-
lsauqua, the name not being given.
Probably some of our Keosauqua read
Iers can supply the name. Rev. J. w.
Cheney, of Keosauqua, and Rev. Hen
ry Clay Dean are two of the noted
preachers who held pastorates at
Bloomfield during the life of this old
building In the pastorate of Rev..
Reinick the first church organ was
mysteriously demolished. You know
there was a time when there was
much opposition to the innovation of
introducing organs and other musical
instruments in church worship. The
writer remembers that when Rev.
Ira o. Kemb1e, nov" of Oskaloosa, was
pastor of this old church he. made a
vigorous fight against dancing, which
became very bitter and was carried
into the newspapers, T. o. Walkers
Democrat and the preacher having
quite an acrimonious series of set-tos.

popular waltz at Bloomfield, called the

had To meet the spiritual demands
of this one woman the minister
prepared a sermon on the woman
who has a tongue long enough to
reach from the parlor to lick the
skillet in the kitchen and expected
a round of abuse from the blather-
skite woman, but instead of taking
the sermon to herself she told him
of family living seven miles away
whom she wished might hear Just
such a sermon. The preacher con-
cluded that it is a difficult matter
for people to apply the Scriptures
TO their own personal needs.
His text for the evening was,

expressed his belief in innocent fun

to go to the ballroom for their fun.
Every man full of life likes to see
ball game, but no first class Chris

In a most sarcastic manner he
criticised women who run after fads

live on S75, the 500 men to live on
$50, and so on and the nose of the
bread winner is kept to the grind
stone. He gave mimic of the
