SEARCHING PARTY FAILS TO
LOCATE BODY-PRoBABLY LOST
LIFE LATE IN THE MONTH
OF OCTOBER

Details of the tragedy which has be-
fallen Peter johnson, the old Buffalo
Humper, were brought out by j. p.
Reeves and Lee Colgrovo, who came out
to the county seat this week on bust
ness.
1t seems the first intimation they had
of anything having gone wrong with
Pete was November 10 when Peter
Klinkhammer, another old Buffalo
Humper, came out to Orogrande and
stated Pete had not showed up on cleo
tion day at his place and as he had
stated when he went in this fall he
would vote at either Concord or Oro-
grande, his friends became little un-
easy and decided that on his way back
to the Hump Klinkhammer should go
by the way of johnson s cabin and see
what was wrong Klinkhammer found
upon arriving at the cabin no evidence
of Pete and indi aations that showed he
had been gone for some time.
He returned to Orogrande and formed
searching party composed of j. T.
Reeves, Lee Colgrove, George Overfield,
Henry Folks and himself. The party
struck out and arrived at the johnson
place Nov. II. An examination of the
cabin showed Pete had mixed some
bread. put dried fruit ON the stove and
evidently made other preparations which
would indicate he had intended to be
GONE but a short time His snow shoes
were there and everything in place ex-
cept his gun.
In the search the Ash barn which Is
located ON the summit, was visited as

The country home and contents of
Wess Hockersmith, located on Rice
Creek, were totally destroyed by fire
last Friday afternoon, the origin of
which is unknown. The flames were
discovered about five in the afternoon
and while Mr.. Hockersmith made every
effort to save the building and some of
the contents he was unable to do any
thing. In his efforts he was rather
badly burned but is not serious. His
loss will prove a serious one and as far
as we are able to learn there was no
insurance.

HOW farm LOANS
ARE SECURED UN-
DER new LAW
FARMERS OF PRAIRIE WILL BE
INTERESTED IN WORKINGS OF
NEW FEDERAL LOAN LAW.
RURAL CREDITS LOWER RATE
Association to Get the Benefit of the
Loan Act Now Going in Operation.

Farmers ON Camas Prairie as else
where, are taking deed interest in
the new rural credits law and in the
formation of the federal farm loan
board. AS it is confidently expected
that one of the farm loan banks will
be established in Spokane the subject
is brought home to this section In an
intimate way, and the plans for organ
izing farm loan associations are freely
discussed. BY this scheme the farmers
hope to save immense amounts hereto
fore paid out in high interest rates.
How Farmers Start.
According to the plan of the board
any 10 farmers may unite to form q
national farm loan association. That
is the least number that the law al
lows, and farmers only can be members.
Following the work Of forming the as
sociation q committee of three must be
appointed to appraise the lands ON which
the money is to be borrowed, known as
the loan committee. When an ap-
praisement has been made the commit
tee sign their report and forward it to
the federal land banks of their district,
where their articles of organization
have already been filed
Honesty is Best Policy.
There will be no opportunity for
over appraisement because before the
money is actually loaned to the farm
ers the bank will send its own apprais-
ers. If the appraised amount forward
ed by the farm committee and that
reported by the appraiser for the bank
are anywhere near alike, it will give
farmers a better standing with the bank
because it will then know that it is
dealing with strictly honest men.
The national farm loan association
are to be organized and run by farm
ers and for farmers. The law states
that no one except farmers shall be
members of the association, and that
no one except members can borrow.
The lowest sum any farmer can bor-
row is 800; the highest $4,000. These
are the limits set by law.
Must Buy Shares.
Farmers will not be allowed to Join
the association without buying shares
in them The value of the shares is
: fixed at the low price of So each Ev-
cry farmer who becomes member of
! national farm loan association also
fbecomes a borrower and shareholder
at the same time. The law says tha,
; he must subscribe for stock to the
amount of per cent of his desired
loan. If he wants to borrow 800 ht
! must take one share of stock; if $20(

will be for the better class OF draft

TIL DIR ECT PRIMARY

The direct primary is a recent in
Vention which makes one man 3 vote
as good as another. 1t has also raised
the price of votes in some states to a
point where it costs more to run for
Congress than it did to run a han
team IN the Federal League.
Before the direct primary came into
