ARROWROCK DAM
SAVES CROP
BOISE RIVER WOULD NOW BE
ALMOST DRY BUT FOR THE
STORAGE WATER BEING RE-
LEASED,

The delivery of government water
stored in the Arrowrock reservoir is
proving the salvation of crops in the
Boise valley and southwestern Idaho,
according to Watermaster Tallman
who has charge of the Boise river
district and is supervising the ad-
ministration of water in this se-tion
of the state.
Because there is water running in
the Boise river many water users
who have been cut down in Their
supply have objected to the cuts,
asserting that this water should not
be permitted to run to waste. The
fact of the matter is, however, the
water is not running to waste, but
is the proportionate share the ser
eral canals below Boise are entitled
to. Watermaster Tallman states that
one-third of the water running past
Boise in the Boise river now is from
the government storage and has

operative and the Caldwell Highline
canals. If this delivery was not be-
ing made at the present time the
Boise river would be almost dry, for
but only 25O second-feet of water
would be running in it, whereas, the
storage water which is now running
into the river is almost 500 second
feet.
The water shortage is the most
serious in the history of the Valley
Had 1t not been for the fact the
Arrowrock dam was recently COM
pleted so that water could be stored
behind it there would have been a
serious loss In this section in crops.
As it is, this storage water is prov
ing the salvation for crops. Not only
will there be enough for the fruit,
but the third crop of alfalfa will be
saved. Water is probably being
more economically used in the Boise
valley now than ever before in its
history with the result that there Is
going to be sufficient for all pur-
pos ses.-Capital News.

Mr.. D. L. Ingard and Mr.. ]. H.
Lowell of Parma returned Wednes-
day evening from the Trustees meet
ing of the North Pacific Fruit D-s-
tributors held in Spokane on the 18th
and 18th. They report an optimis -ic
feeling in regard to the sale of
apples but that at the present time
the prunes from the Yakima Dis
trict are being rollsd out of Yakima
at low prices. 1t is hoped that these
prunes will be out of the way before
the Idaho prunes are ready and that
prices may be maintained on the
Idaho product as in previous years;
but owing to the enormous crop ct
peaches being shipped from all dis
tricts at ridiculously low prices
such as 90c f. o. b. shipping po'nt
there is great danger that the prune
market may be seriously affected.

LIoftOR MEN GO INTO BETTER
AND BIGGER BUSINESS

In states where prohibition goes
into effect January /, 1916, liquor
dealers are getting ready to engage
In other lines of business. The own
ers of the largest brewery in the
state of Colorado are building pot
terry plant from which they expect to
make more money than they ever
did from the brewery. They are also
experimenting with matted mix
manufacture. Neef Bros. of Denver
will make malt BREW" a new temp
erance drink guaranteed to contain
no alcohol. The large brewery at
Bellingham, Washington, will be
transformed into cold storage and
creamery plant. The secretary of the
Beer Drivers local union In Spokane
goes into the hotel business, and the
secretary of the local Bottlers' Union
has bought a confectionery. The
Idaho Falls Brewing Company will
convert It's buildings into cold stor-
age and ice manufacturing plant and
at Nampa the same crew OF laborers
are now employed In making food
instead OF beer. These are few OF
the many instances of advantages
prohibition will bring to the liquor
men themselves. In changing their
business the manufacturers and sell
lers of liquor will find abundant
compensation" financially and so
cially,

OGDEN GATE
WAY CASE

in connection with the recent de-
cisinn CT the Interstate Commerce
Commission in conceding the fair
aess of the contentious of the
Onion Pacific System in the Ogden
Gateway Case, you will probably be
interested in noting the following:
IN 1914, the Union Pacific an
noGnCed its intention to discontinue
the interchange with the D & R G.
at Ogden, of passenger business to
or from points On the Oregon Short
Line-a part of the Union. Pacific
Systein-this affecting only business
to or from Denver and points east.
The I & R. G. contended tina. as
these rates had been in effect about
19 years they should not be cancelled
The Union Pacific stood upon what
it regarded as its legal right to re-
tire from an arrangement whieh
short hauled it's own lines, and
contended that it was entitled to
the long haul ON Passenger traffic
to and from territory served by the
Oregon Short Line. The principal
reason assigned being the large ex-
penditures made by the Union Pa~1-
fic in the construction of branch
TO Yellowstone
Park and in Oregon Short Line ter
ritory, the testimony indicating that
In recent years, $109,000,000 were
in the construction OF
branches for the purpose of enabl-
ing the Union Pacific to serve Idaho
and adjacent territory. while the
D. & R. G., on the other hand, had
not invested dollar in Oregon
Short Line territory. Commissioner
Harlan, in announcing the majority
opinion of the commission says:
Z" In addition to the shorter mile !
age, the service of the Union Pacific
in point of time is much superior,
The fastest train over its rails from
Omaha reaches OGDEN in IS hours
and 55 minutes less time than the
best train between the same points
over any other route in connection
with the D. & r. G.
" The situation before us is
very practical one. The Denver and
Rio Grande Route as herenbefore
pointed out is longer by nearly 400
niles and is 19 hours longer In po'nt
If time. Under such circumstances, If
10 through route were now open,
IN order based on the record before
IS, recurring the Union Pacific Sys-
EN- to short haul itself by establish
ng the present parity of fares over
he Denver and Rio Grande, would
,e Illogical and arbitrary in the
highest degree. 1t would be no less
10 should we undertake to exercise
,ur power under the same provision
# law by compelling the Union Pacf
c to continue a rate adjustment
which we could not lawfully require
t to establish as an original ques-
ion.'
