BIG LAND SALE
Swiss Dairyman will bring Large
Bunch of Fine Cows

Bunch of Fine Cows
Anton Arnold, of O'Brien, Washing
ton, near Seattle, was an interested
visitor to the Richfeld tract last week.
So interested, indeed, that he bought
120 acres of land here---the old Chal-
mers- Mcconnell land near Marley. He
has contracted to have at least 40 acres
of the farm put into alfalfa ready for
next year.
Mr.. Arnold brings very interesting
story. He is Swiss, and big farmer
and dairyman he has 80 cows and has
been paying S25 an acre per year rental
for the land he farms. All lands there
are worth as much. He expects to
bring many of his cows here probably
about fifty---to start with---and he says
further that there others of his country
men, and neighbors, from his part of
the State of Washington, who will be
glad to come here. He says that the
productiveness of the land, and the
good water-supply, make this land
good buy for any farmer. He contem-
plates the manufacture of cheese, and
he is confident that there 10 4 great
future for this business here.

The Woman's Club met, September

the regular program meeting.
1t was found necessary to postpone
part of the program until later meet

Mrs. Gorow gave very interesting
paper on the story of Sacajawea. Sac
ajawea was a Shoshone Indian, who,
with her French husband (Shebonya)
served as guide to the Lewis and Clark
expedition for two years. She had been
taken captive by 4 hostile tribe and
taken to the Dakotas, where Lewis and
Clark found her. She found her own
people while travelling through Idaho,
who. through her influence, helped the
expedition quite materially. Through
her knowledge Of food roots and those
used ~ medicine, she was able to save
the lives of the party many times-
When the expedition reached Idaho on
their return trip, Sacajawsa and her
husband left the party to make their
home with her people
Quite q number were present 1t the
meeting and all enjoyed the delicious
refreshments served by the hostssses.

Practically the whole Oregon Short
Line operating force was in Richfield,
Thursday morning, under the lead OF
Vice President and General Manager
E. E. Calvin.
Mr.. Calvin believes in taking the rail
road to the people---not in waiting for
them to come in and plead for what
they want or ought to have, or to stay
away and feel crouch over things
that could and would gladly be straight
ened up if only any one knew what
they were and what was wanted. He
is having all the heads of departments
go over the entire system; to meet as
many of the people as possible, to see
the country, to learn the resources,
the social and business conditions, the
road conditions as much as they can
learn that; in short, he wants every
man to be responsible part of sys-
TEN that should work for the benefit of
the whole country, and incidentally if
not primarily for the good of the Short
Line
He has fine bunch to preach this
kind of . gospel to- You never met a
more earnest lot of railroad and human
ity students than those who surround
him in headquarters. They believe
there is more to railroading than the
mere figures that pour in ceaseless
stream through their books and adding
machines and freight statistics. The
whole business of railroading is based
on the little things---on the Bill Jones
and John Smiths and the Mary Olsens
and all the things that these people and
their neighbors ship in or out. A rail
road could not do business for minute
with only 5000 to serve; no, nor SO, 900,
