LIMB BROKEN

c. H. Berkey, father OF George P.
Berkey, had the misfortune Sunday
evening of slipping on the sidewalk
in front of his sons residence and in
so doing, fell in such a manner that
his right limb was broken above the
ankle. He was taken to his home where
he is being cared for and the family
physician reduced the fracture.
His many friends hope that his con-
inement on account of this accident,
will not be of long duration.

candidacy for the chairmanship of
that particular committee. seems to
be led by Odell, who IL serving his
second term in the senate after hav-
ing served in the house in previous
years.
Odell is much interested In game
and fish laws. That there are two
separate and distinct factions clam

game committee ia apparent. Odell is
backed BY those who are opposed to
the so-calied sporting interests. mean

game preserves, etc.. and faction IL
backing Hilsendegen. who are opposed
to what they tern ''the city mans

Senator Henry Straight of Coldwater

chairmanship of the liquor commit

ing, though Mr.. DickinEpn has by no
means made any promises for this
important position.
Senator Herbert Powell Of Ionia was
here. but neither he nor Mr.. Dickin-

committee he desired to be appointed

Mr. Smith says he has 65 written

Smith. He thinks very favorably Of

tricts and thinks the plan will work
out for the best interests of the state.
Another plan advocated by Mr..
Smith, II he is elected. will be carried
out. He says he win call Representa-

his office and confer with them rela-

call in probably. ten other members
who have served previously in the
house and confer with them. Flowers
and Hinkley are close to Mr.. Smith.
and he believes that they can give
him some good advice. The idea.
while new one, seems workable. "Un-
derstand. my appointments will be
made by myself. but advice Is good

Solving the Problem;
Grower Gets Short End

The Call has argued ever since the
cooperative marketing plan was first
urged upon this tract that the met
hod would have to be revised-that
If the association is to realize for its
patrons the high prices paid by the
consumer it must get into direct
touch with the consumer; in other
words, sell directly to him, cutting
out all middlemen's profits and all
auction and surplus distributing
charges.
There is but one way in which the
association can realize the price paid
by the consumer, and that is to sell
to the consumer. Opinion may differ
as to the best way of doing this, but
The Call is convinced that the ex-
pense of maintaing a selling agent at
every point of over 10000 popula-
ton would be far within the total
charges paid at the present under the
present plan.
Let this agent remain in the town
to which he is sent; as he builds up
his own trade, and becomes more
familiar with it, the greater his OPP
portunity to benefit the organization
and the growers the better prices
will he be able to realize for them.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1915-06-04

Under the above heading the KIM
berly, Idaho, Call, recently published
an editorial from which the follow
ing is an extract:
A potato grower Of Kimberly late
ly shipped two cars of the tubers
through the association. After pay
ing for his sacks, freight, etc., he re-
ceived net return of IS per car.
There was nothing the matter with
the spuds; they were as fine a speci-
men of the Idaho product (admitted-
ly the best Of its kind in the world)
as were ever shipped from the tract.
Nor was there anything the matter
with the consumer; the man who ac-
tually ate the spuds paid, we believe,
something like 81 per bushel for
them.
Where, then, was the trouble? The
answer to this question is matter
of supreme Importance to the farmer
of Idaho, because upon its correct
ness or falsity depends the possibility
of applying the corrective. Why is
it, with the ultimate consumer pay
ing top-notch prices, the grower can
not get more out of the crop to in
demnify him for his labor and his
investment?

MINING OUTLOOK FOR
CUSTER COUNTY
;Challis Forest has Greater Metal
lurgical Interest Than any in Local
District.

H. Work, forest examiner, Is at
the district office in Ogden for a
few days. having completed his field
work for the preliminary land CLASH
fication of the Challis forest, central
Idaho. The Challis forest has with
in its boundary perhaps greater met
allurgical interest than any other in
the local district, and the reputation
of the old Custer mine, which from
1887 to 1906 produced in the neigh
borhood of $4,000, 900, is we'll
known. A Cripple Creek company,
which spent last year in prospecting
around Custer, has taken over the
Sunbeam dam, mine, and mill, above
Challis on Yankee fork, as well as
the Montana mine and other proper
ties, according to reliable informa-
ion in Custer county. Confidence in
the value of mining property in that
region is strengthened by the fact
that the company has steadily push
ed TUNED from the Yankee fork
level into the mountain to inter
cept the old Custer lead, which has
been exploited from Shallow work
ings from the top. With its heavy
Investment and the attitude of Meth
er disposing of stock nor publishing
favorable reports on their progress,
while pushing steadily ahead, it is
generally thought that the company
believes in the country and is ready
to back it's belief with solid props
pecting.
Speaking of the minerals of the re-
gion, Joseph B. Umpleby, in bulletin
$50 of the U. S. geological survey,
says: Northwestern Custer county
is certain to produce amounts of sill
yer, lead, copper and gold in the
future, if only from deposits now de-
yeloped In heavily timbered area,
WhCAO ouSH DOAduLd uSpOSlIo nave
been found there is ever the proba-
bility of new discoveries The Loon
creek district contains placers which
will probably be worked in the near
future. In addition to these are gold
copper veins, one of which has been
explored to a depth of 1000 feet,
and throughout the ore has varied
in value from $25 to $50 to the ton,
with no evidence of improverishment
with depth. 1t is highly probable
that in rough country like north
western Custer county new deposits
will be found when mining again be-
comes active. The area is far more
worthy the attention of the prospec-
tor than many which are being ade-
.quately explored"
The rise in price of copper has
stimulated operations at mines of
the Empire Copper company, at Mac
kay, and about 240. men are now at
work there. Many of them are OPP
Grating as lessees. The Copper Bull
lion TUNED is especially active, and
the Shay railroad system from the
mines to Mackay is being operated at
capacity. +lsty H'' hy
