piece of mountain mahogany came in
contact with the sayshrdlu cmfcmf oh

on it. The thumb and forefinser of
the left hand were severed and the

Of electrical current, was caused by
mountains of ice in the Snake river
at American Falls where the cleric

the S. !. L. p. Co. spared no time
or expense in removing the trouble,
and were fortunate in doing it as
soon as they did.

WONDERFUL
PRODUCTION

If the products grown in 1918 jn
the upper Snake river valley, between
the towns of Ross Fork on the south
and Marysville on the north, with
Idaho Falls as the center and pivot,
could have been loaded into cars and
filled train III miles in length, or
double track the length Of the valley
besides leaving train nine miles long
standing on the siding The average
was 253 cars Of outgoing freight per
mile for the entire valley. 1t is 81
miles by rail from Ross Fork to Marys
vile. This is the remarkable showing
from reliable crop and car movement
statistics secured from the Idaho Falls
country.
The development experienced by the
Idaho Falls country and in fact the
rich, fertile valley stretching from Po-
catello almost to the headwaters of
the Snake river has been little short
of phenomenal during the past 10
years and if the same ratio of devel-
opment is experienced within the next
10 years the tonnage from this sec.
ton will be more than doubled for
the yield per acre on both irrigated
and dry farm lands is very large for
potatoes, sugar beets, grains and gras-
ses and there is a vast empire of dry
farm lands there as yet uncultivated.
Seed Pea Crop Prominent
The seed pea industry is one that
has become into marked prominence
in this section of the state. Some
idea of its extensive growth can be
gained from the following figures:
For the year ending June 80. 1912,
the total number of cars Of peas ship
ped from the valley was Is, while
the present number is 500. In addi.
ton to being profitable, this crop
builds up, the soil and at the same
. time brings the farmer returns from
$40 to $75 per acre ana he still re-
tains the pea straw, which is excell'
ent sheep and cattle feed.
