MISERLINESS

Miserliness Is a form Of in
sanity.
Misers differ in cast of counte-
nance from other persons.
Discrimination to social inter-
course is another characteristic.
Hiding money in out-of-the-
way places is characteristic of
misers.
Some of the famous misers
ate diseased meat and lived in
filth, although they possessed
hundreds of thousands of dol
lars.
One famous miser played
dead. for two days, thinking
that his domestics would fast for
that time, and thus save some
expense.

lands in the winter season, has given
way to a thriving little town of some
1900 population dotted with hand
some residences and substantial bust
ness buildings.
AS will be seen by reference to the
illustration on the first page of this
issue, Jerome is located in almost
the center of the Great North Side
tract, and has always been looked
upon from the first as the metropo
lis of the tract, its central location
being such as to enable it TO draw
trade from a wide area.
Fortunately the population of Je-
rome was made up of a most genial
and sociable class of people, while
here business men were of a class of
progressives, which is evidenced in
many ways. Ever alert for any i'm
provement that would be of benefit
and interest to the citizens of the

and modern residences have been
constructed on some of the farms in
this immediate vicinity, and while
it would have pleased us to include
these in our list of illustrations. the
difficulties of obtaining photographs
of these in the winter time were too
great to be overcome.
From present indications the yer
1915 will outstrip the preceding
year in the matter of building i'm
provements as several new residences
are now in contemplation. Jerome
has all the modern conveniences to
make home attractive, and there is
nothing bordering on the pioneer life,
which some of our eastern friends
would imagine. The town is settling
up with a class of refined and moral
people and no one can make a mis-
take by casting their lot among such
a class of citizens.

one wish to visit the beautiful Blue

times for this purpose.
The farmers about Jerome enjoy
the free mail delivery there being two
routes which are covered daily, and
third one is now in contemplation.

filed with the postoffice department
With the telephone and electric
light lines reaching to the country
homes of many, Jerome and it's vi
cinity is far remote from the sage
brush desert that confronted the pio-
neers only few short years ago.
All things considered, the future
of Jerome from the present outlook.

community. Jerome now enjoys more
modern facilities than many eastern
cities of twice its size, and many
years its senior.
Unlike any of the new towns that
have sprang into existence on some
of the uncertain irrigation projects
of this state, Jerome has never suf-
fered from a boom, unless it was at
the very opening of the tract, but her
growth has been gradual and sure,
and while the population has per-
haps not increased as rapidly as some
of the towns of mushroom growth,
those who have cast their lot here
are evidently satisfied of the choice
they have made, as they go on max
ing substantial improvements from
year to year, with full confidence in
the future of this community. This

Going back few years and look
ing over the sage brush desert of
Southern Idaho, the most imaginat-
i've dreamer could hardly conceive of
the fact that within very short
decade this same desert would be-
come the site of thriving little town
nestled in the heart of one of the
most fertile and picturesque valleys
of the northwest. But a few short
years have wrought a wonderful
change, and what was formerly the

Dotted With Handsome Residences and Substantial
Blocks.

is evidenced by illustrations of some
of the new residences that have been
built during the past year. which ap-
pear on the following pages. These
do not, however, represent all the
new building that has been done in
the year just past, as substantial
improvements have been made in
various homes throughout the town.
and it is very conservative to esti-
mate that at least 100000 has been
spent in building improvements in
the residence section of the town
during 1914.
But the building improvements
during this time were not confined to
the limits of the town. as several new

Jerome is quite fortunately located
as regards railroad transportation,
being located on what is known as
the Bliss-Rupert cut-off on the Ore
gon Short Line railroad, which is
only a link in the double tracking of
this system, and this branch will un-
doubtedly become a portion of the
main line within a short time. Pas
sengers from the east can make close
connections with trains on this line
at Minidoka, and coming from the
west connection is made at Bliss.

Buildings Idle Most Of Time.
It was pointed out several times that
buildings worth millions of dollars lay

the year. Officials of the schools were
anxious to extend and develop certain
lines of work, but were greatly ham

IL was not possible to use the buildings
to their fullest capacity.
