Appleton Road District Vote Bonds.

Appleton Road District Vote Bonds.
On Saturday last the election TO
vote $4,000 road bonds was held
Tor the purpose of determining whe-
Their the residents of that district
wanted better roads. So pronounced
was the vote In favor of the bond is
sue that in most cases 1t would be
called practically unanimous, the
vote being SO for with only II
against, which positively indicated
the wishes OF the residents of this
prosperous community Consider
able Investigation on the part of
some Of the interested parties was
necessary to show them the advant-
ages to be obtained by good roads
and to that end about two weeks ago
three autos we're secured and a drive
over the Bliss, Cooling, Shoshone
and Dietrich highways was made and
well can the result be seen by the
vote as cast at the election on Sat
urday last. Along in the spring a
day was set aside for the working of
roads and planting of trees and SO
liberal was the response to this call
that hundreds of men and teams
turned out to assist in the better
ment OF roads in the Jerome district.
Seeing the results obtained by one
days work, this enterprising COM
munity Immediately set to work to
improve not only small portion of
their roads but the most of them, and
as a result the successful election
Just held spells much for the COM
munity.
Much credit is due the promoters
of this election In thoroughly setting
before the people the advantages tc
be obtained by this bond issue.
This fund of $4,000 will be ex-
pended by the commissioners, Messrs
Sillbaugh, Harry and Elliott, toge
ther with Director Albee, and 1t /:
stated that work will be commenced
at once and pushed forward as rap
idly as possible until it freezes up
Thus 1t will give work TO every resi-
dent OF the district who desires it
and it is expected in the end t
make a good road leading from ever.

The board of road commissioner
In the Appleton district are all goo
men and to their management nov
remains the job of iudiciously over
seeing the work and to that end W
can say to the people interested the
have made no mistake.
Many citations Of the advantage
obtained from good roads can b
shown and it is to be hoped that tn
few remaining road districts in thi
section will get busy. With goo
roads, the planting of trees in cor
junction with good farming, there
nothing that can hold back the tra'
and soon an era of prosperity will
on that no one can stop.

Valuable Reference Library.

Perhaps there is no one on the
tract that has given more close
study to agriculture than has DR.. O..
+. Henning, OF this place. Although
following his profession he has de-
voted his leisure hours In gaining
what information he could as regards
successful farming, and his know
ledge along this line has been gained
to a great extent from bulletins he
has received from the Government
and also from many of the state ag-
ricultural colleges. Being in receipt
of these bulletins they were carefully
indexed and preserved, until at the
present time the number reached
something over 5000 volumes. Feel
ing that these volumes would be val
liable references for the farmers on
the tract, containing as they do in
formation relative to any branch OF
farm activities. he has presented
them to the Jerome Experimental
Station. where they will be open at
all times for the information of al
who are interested. AS a complete
index goes with these bulletins, any
subject desired is easily accessible
and the general public is cordially
invited to call at the station anc

Manager Dewey. OF the station, Is
mcuh pleased to come into possession
of this valuable reference library
and knowing its value to genera

people of this section are due DR.
Henning for his liberality in turning
the same over for the benefit OF TIT
public. and it is to be hoped tina
they will be used by everybody IN
terested in farming.

A sad affair occurred at the home |
of the Dagget Brothers on the rim
rock, on Thursday of last week. in |
the SUDDEN death of Mrs. c. j. Rider,
who with her husband were tempo
rarily stopping at that place. Mrs.
Rider had been enjoying the best OF
health and upon retiring Wednesday
evening she gave no sign of any all
ment, except slight cough which
kept her awake for a time. Her hus-
band spoke to her once or twice
asking her if she was feeling well
and her reply was that the cough
kept her awake. Later on he again
spoke to her but received no answer,
and being alarmed he called for the
other inmates of the home, but when
they reached the room Mrs. Rider
had passed TO the great beyond.
The couple are strangers in this
community arriving here only about
two weeks ago, and were driving
through from Oregon to Kansas. Be-
ing acquainted with the Carver fam
lily residing south of town, they
stopped here, and being pleased with
the country and learning that the
Dagget boys wanted man and his
wife for the winter, they concluded
to stay here until spring. But this
is only another instance of the UNI
certainty of life, and the husband is
heart broken over the sudden taking
away of his helpmate.
Mrs. Rider was a native of Cali
fornia, having been born in Shasta
county, Oct 3, 1868, making her D:
years old at the time of her death
She leaves to mourn their loss hus
band and five children. four of whom
are in California and one in Oregon
The funeral services were conducted
at the Dagget home on Friday las
| at l o'clock p. m, Rev. NJ. F. Roo
= officiating.

2 munity goes out to the bereaved hus
/ band.
