A New Corporation.

The Barrymore Townsite Co. is
new organization which filed articles
OF incorporation the first of the week.
Among the incorporators is l. B. Per-
rine, who has associated with him
several eastern capitalists, some of
whom already own land either in or
adjoining the townsite of Barrymore.
The capital stock OF the new COM
pany is placed at $4,000 and we
understand that active work will at
once commence on improving the
townsite and it is likely that lots
will be soon placed on the market
for sale.
The present townsite of Barrymore
is located in one of the most produc-
tive sections OF the tract in the heart
of the Jonathan Valley and some
work has already been done in plat
ting the ground and making improve
| ments, a deep well having been put
down, a community club house hav-
ing been erected, and everything now
points to some activity in that local
ity. Some time ago postoffice was
established at that place, the town
being on the line OF the Oregon Short
Line, and some talk has already been
INDUCED in about starting store at
that point, the farmers around there
now coming TO jerome to do the most
of their trading.
= The inhabitants of that section
will hail with JOY the formation Of
= this new company and will look for
= ward to having quite a settlement
: there in the near future. The fac
e that capital has been interested IL
II this undertaking is an evidence O
is the faith in the tract, and we hop
to see the contemplated improve
ments progress rapidly.

School Board.

The school board met in regular
session last Monday evening. From
the fact that IL was the meeting set
aside for the consideration OF appli-
cations for the position of teachers
for the coming year, quite a delega-
ton of our citizens were present In
the interest of one of our former tea
chers who is again an applicant for
position. Upon the recommenda-
tion of the teachers committee. all
of the old teachers who had made ap-
plication were elected. This left
three vacancies to be filled the
Misses Diffendaffers were not appli-
cants, neither was the Miss Sarah
Stacy. Miss Coral Hall was elected
to one of the vacancies. Mrs. Harri-
EFT Massey to another and the third
was referred TO the teachers commit
,ee to report at the next meeting.
The arrangement of lease for the
grounds upon which the Freeman
school house stands was referred TO

The village election for the pur-
pose of selecting five. trustees to
serve for a term of two years. will be
held in less than two weeks. There
seems TO be quite discussion among
some relative to the merits of certain
individuals to serve the village in
this capacity. but as yet no one has
publicly announced their candidacy.
1t is to be regretted that more in
terest is not taken in the selection of
/ these trustees. as the matter is OF
much more importance than many
seem to realize. The placing of the
government of the town in the hands
of these men should be of the mos
vital interest to every taxpayer. an'
others who wish to see the town pro
gress. 1t is intimated that some lo

Little is known concerning the life
and habits OF this new species OF
worm as it is stated that there are
no bulletins published regarding it.
However. the county agriculturist of
Canyon county has made somewhat
of a study of it and says:
1T is not an army worm. nor is it
the same cut worm that infests the
corn fields in eastern states. but
different worm entirely.
The moths emerge in late summer
or fall and often fly long distances
before alighting to deposit eggs. The
fields infested this year are not at all
likely TO be infested next year, un-
less moths from some other field hap
pen to light upon them.
The young worms hatch out late

AN ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING.
Tho Farmers OF This Section Evident
ly Aroused over the Prospect of
"a Creamery Being Estab-
lished Here.

Another most enthusiastic meeting
of the farmers of this section was
held at the town hall last Saturday
afternoon to further discuss the prac-
ticability OF organizing creamery at
Jerome. Mr.. l.. ID. Carlton was made |
chairman OF the meeting and several
we're called upon to express their
views regarding u creamery, all OF
whom seemed enthusiastic over the
PROPOSITION, providing satisfactory
arrangements could be made for IL
nancing the same.
X. Il. Shepherd. the representa-
tive OF the bondholders. WAS present
as he had agreed and made very III
teresting talk TO the farmers. not only
along the lines OF establishing a
creamery, but the stock question in
general. urging the farmers to adopt
some means OF reducing the pro-
ducts OF their farms to the least pos
sible expense OF marketing the same.
AS has been stated in these columns.
MIR. Shepherd assured those present
that he had succeeded in interesting
some eastern capital In the financing
of the stock industry on the tract
and especially as regards the dairy
lines. and was prepared to advance
money for the erection OF creamery
and the furnishing of dairy stock tc

would safeguard the advancing o.

was familiar with the creamery quei
tion and had been instrumental

titions, and unless the farmers

other hand he considered this as OIL

Damage by Worms.

Through the courtesy of VIM. Wag-
ner we were taken to his clover field
about mile west of town one day
this week where we were shown the
damage being done by a peculiar
worm which now infests portions of
the tract. The particular field men
toned is one on which clover seed was
raised last year. while the field ad-
Joining on which nurse crop
OF wheat was raised, has not been mo-
Tested by the worms. II will be re-
membered that last year attention
was called to an insect that was de-
stroying the clover blossoms and ii
is thought by some that perhaps this
insect laid the eggs which hatched
out these worms. as in the field In
question many of these insects were
found.
On this field It was found that thu
worms burrow themselves into tn
crown of the clover and thus destro

Early Irrigation the Best.

1t is gratifying to note the num-
Der of farmers that are taking the
advice of Mr.. Shepherd and are irri-
eating their lands early. From the
best authority obtainable. this rule
should be followed every year. Es-
pecially is this so as regards new
land. There are many who expert
ence some difficulty in raising a crop
on new land. and Investigations go to
show that much of this difficulty is |
due 10 the lack of moisture. and the |
failure TO get the ground we'll irri-
gated early in the spring. 1t is a
lwell known fact that while the wea-
ther is yet cool, much more success
can be had in getting the moisture
down deep into the ground, than can
be attained after the weather be-
comes warm and the rays of the sun
have a tendency to evaporate much
of the water put on the land.
Stanley r. Moore. of the Arizona
Agricultural college has been study
ing conditions in Idaho. and he states
that there is really no necessity for a
= great deal of trouble the farmers
have with new land. He has found
I in several cases. on digging down into

Many farmers think they would be

Many farmers think they would be

year. says Wallace's Farmer. Look

For If labor were cheap and abund-
