method adopted by the bondholders
they have voluntarily dropped the price
of pumping project land from $50 to
$50 per acre, granting land owners
there the same price as the settlers I'M

agreed to absorb the pumping charges

sell their excess land and thereby be
able to properly equip and stock their

of paying the actual maintenance seem

Likes New Contracts.
Speaking of the promising prospects
OF the North side tract, ]. M. Hale.
we'll known business man of Jerome,
who erected the first business building
there, gave out the following statement
before returning to Jerome:
THE bondholders committee made
sr offer of extension to the settlers OF
all principal and accrued interest pay
ments from March 1, 1914, for Ave
years with no principal payments to be
made but with interest on the prin
cipal at six per cent for these years.
Beginning with March /, 1919. the set
tiers will under the new contract pay
Ave per cent on their interest and six
per cent on the principal as heretofore
with one per cent interest on the prin-
cipal each year following.
Many Of the settlers have paid but
the initial payment of SO per acre with
no interest so they are in areas five
years principal and interest, which I'M
der the present contract is drawing
eight per cent interest. The bond
holders committee proposes to COM
pute the interest at only six instead of
eight per cent, adding the same to the
principal, which would draw only six
per cent for the full time.
Ready to Deposit Bonds.
This means a saving in the differ
ence of computed interest of over
100000 to the farmer on the North
Side tract. The bondholders propose
to fully complete the system and put
it in first class condition, and, to guar
antee their good faith the bond of the
Kuhns of 100000 deposited with the
state land board together with the
bonds of the North Side and $500, 900

portion necessary. will be deposited

so desires. Bonds to the amount of

PLENTY OF WORK
AT IDAHO FALLS
Objection Raised to State
ment of Boise Trades and
Labor Council.

The statement Of the Boise Trades
and Labor Council that there is no
work in Idaho Falls for carpenters and
advising them to remain away from
that city is erroneous according to w.
L. Shattuck, vice president and gem
eral manager of the Idaho Falls De-
velopment company of Idaho Falls. In
a letter from Mr.. Shattuck he takes
issue with the local trades council.
Mr.. Shattuck says he noticed in the
paper an advertisement from c. E.
Sandstrom of Idaho Falls offering $3.50
a day of hours work for carpenters
and in the same issue the Boise Trades
and Labor Council warning He con
tinues;
81 am very familiar with conditions
here and will say in connection with
these notices that our company, the
Idaho Falls Development company is
now erecting three large business
blocks, and C. E. Sandstrom has the
contracts on all three of them. These
contracts were signed up the early part
of May and soon after they were
signed the carpenters union in Idaho
Falls advised Mr.. Sandstrom that he
would have to pay IS for an eight-hour
day, whereas he had figured these con-
tracts on the basis of $3.50 per day for
a nine-hour day, and the increase was
to take effect June l.
"Mr. Sandstrom could not grant this
| increase without sustaining a great loss
as he had figured the buildings on the
lower scale of wages, which was the
union scale at that time. therefore he
has been paying the wages he has adj
vertised in your paper
"As for there being no work here
will say emphatically that the state
ment of the Boise Trades and Labor
Council in your paper Is false and
without foundation. Mr.. Sandstrom
has 80 men at work today and as il
will be impossible for him to finish
these buildings of ours before Sept. l
he will need men for several weeks.
II have been advised that some mer
came here from Boise and were met by
members of the carpenters union o.
Idaho Falls and told not to go to work
whether this is true or not cannot
say, but If 1t is it is possibly thu
foundation for the statement made BY
the Boise union"

BondhoIders Have Money
THE bondholders, of which there are
over S0O0 have raised fund Of over
$75O.OOO with which to carry on the
work From this amount Mr.. Shop
herd had paid the government $4,000
for work on the Jackson lake reservoir.
Since coming to Jerome Mr.. Shepherd
has spent over $4,000 back salary of
the Kuhns, the Kuhns overdue taxes
and other bills. Mr.. Shepherd will be
manager of the tract. He has had ex
perience with irriagtion projects be-
fore, having successfully promoted and
constructed two 10000 acre projects in
Montana.
Some of the heaviest bondholders
of the North Side project are also
heavily interested in railroads and |
have been reliably informed they have
already started an investigation of
the resources offered by the southern
Idaho country and its transportation
facilities with a view of entering the
field with a railroad. There are some
facts in connection with this investiga-
ton am not permitted to give out but
lldI the DOnunOlQbIS mean business
and there may be very important de-
velopments in railroad construction as
the result of their investigation is quite
probable.
To Develop Territory.
mr.. Shepherd had the consent of
the bondholders to apply a portion of
the interest collected towards develop
ing the territory and bringing to it
those things that will help to create a
good market for products raised or
creameries, cheese factories and mills.
The headquarters OF the company
will be at Jerome and with the accept
ance of the new contracts we expect an
influx of settlers and the return of
former settlers who left the tract under

tations because they are not in the best
marketable condition. Hens on range
will seldom carry sufficient flesh to
put them in the first class. Before be-
ing marketed they should be penned
for 10 days or two weeks and fed
special fattening ration. hen in con
fnement takes on fat rapidly and quite
frequently a gain of from one and one
half to two pounds can be made in two
weeks.
Hens in the fattening pens should
not be permitted to exercise. In order
to prevent them from moving around
they are crowded in very limited quar-
ters. A good method and one that
should be in force on every farm, Is
that known as crate fattening. Crates
are built 10 feet long, IS inches wide
and IS inches high. II the crates are to
be used inside building they may be
built entirely of stats. If used outside
the top and back must be built solid to
protect the fowls from stormy weather.
The front of the crate should be built
of Stats two inches apart, thus giving
the fowls free access to the feed trough.

to the crate. The front of the crate
should be covered with a curtain while
the fowls are not eating The idea
for keeping the fowls in darkness is to
prevent unnecessary moving about
A Fattening Ration.
A fattening ration that has given
good results is as follows: Two hun
bred pounds OF cornmeal, 100 pounds of
middlings. 100 pounds of ground oats
and SO pounds of beef scrap. These in
gradients should be thoroughly mixed
while dry. If to be had, the mash
should be mixed with skin milk or
buttermilk. The mash should be made
rather thin.
The fowls in the crates should be fed
all they will eat three times a day
When they are through feeding, the
feed trough should be removed anc
thoroughly cleaned. When the fowls
no longer take the large quantities Of
food they did when first put in th'
crate, one may safely conclude tina
they are ready for market.
If one does not care to go to tn
trouble of constructing crates, good re
suits can be obtained by placing tn
fowls in a small dark room and fee
and manage as above directed.
Several years ago the writer brough
"a hens in from the range. They wer
divided into two lots that weighed ex
actly the same number of pounds each
One lot Of ~ hens went into fattenin
crates, while the other was yarded an
fed in the regular way. The expert
ment continued IA days, when the hen
were killed, dry-picled and sent
market, each lot in a separate package
The returns from the commission FIR
showed the shipment of crate-fed hen
weighed 7S pounds, sold for 16 cent
per pound, netting $11.6s. The othe
lot weighed. 40 pounds and sold for /
cents a pound. This lot netted $6.Sl
From this it is seen that the crate-fe
hens sold for $4.S2 more than the lc
fed in the ordinary way.-T. H. R.
