Profs. Thomas Shaw and A.
E. Wilson Address
Large Audience.
DUAL PURPOSE IDEA
More Stock With Less Grain Is
Advocated by Lecturer
Wilson on Alfalfa.

The meeting held by the agricultural
and stockraising experts of the North
ern Pacific and Great Northern railways
at the opera house last evening brought
out a large audience of townspeople
and farmers, and had the weather
maker been little more considerate.
the house would undoubtedly have been
filled to capacity.
The principle speaker OF the evening
was Prof. Thomas Shaw. who made
splendid talk, advocating the right kind
of diversified farming, more stock and
less grain raising with dairying. Prof.
Shaw soon had his audience at ease
and asking questions right and left
and he asked many questions in return.
The professor took a great deal of pains
in explaining his points and great in
terest was shown by those in atten-
dance.
| Prof. f.. A. Wilson followed dealing
with alfalfa and giving the history Of
their experimental farms in Dakota and
Montana in alfalfa and corn raising,
where 1t was thought impracticable.
M. Wilson was also asked many ques-
tions which were answered in a manner
| that made him easily understood.
C. e. Arney of the n. p, was then
introduced by the president OF the
Commercial Club, S. A. Anderson, and
made a brief talk on the object of
the railroads in sending out such lee
turers as Professors Shaw and Wilson.
and made the remark that 1t increased
the profits of the farmers and conse-
quently the railroads
Mr.. Shaw, 1t will be remembered is
the gentleman that was sent to Europe
by James j. Hill of the Great North
ern, to select the dual purpose strain
of cattle of which he spoke. Mr.. Shaw
secured ten young bulls which were
shipped to the United States and scat
tered over the country. one of which
was placed at the T. w. Bales ranch
a few miles north of this city.
From the interest manifested there
is no doubt that much good will result
from the meeting.

POSSIBLE BUSINESS CHANGE.

Rumor has it that w. H. Thomas,
the well known Ilo poultry fancier
and mill man of that place, is about
to take over the electric light plant
at White Bird, and that he will erect
a flour mill and water plant at the
Salmon river metropolis. Mr.. Thomas
has had a whole lot of experience
along these lines having been in the
light and power business in southern
Idaho for a number of years, and If
this rumored deal should be consummat-
ed, there is no doubt but that the
patrons would receive first class SER
vice.
