LARGE SUMS PAID.
OUT FOR POULTRY
Farmers Get Three to Five
Hundred Dollars a Day
From One Concern.

Meridian. Nov. 21.-The Meridian
Produce company, e. F. Hunt proprie-
tor, is distributing to the farmers from
three to five hundred dollars per day
for poultry. or from $4,000 to $4,000
per month. This includes chickens,
ducks, geese and turkeys.
Mr.. Hunt said he expects the busi-
ness to keep up this volume until the
Christmas season, and perhaps till New
Year. He is shipping out an average
of half a car of dressed poultry per
week, to Butte and other northwestern
points. Half car of dressed poultry
is equivalent to about 1000 birds.
The growth of the poultry and egg
business in southern Idaho during the
past five. years Is remarkable. Five
years ago western Idaho shipped in
poultry and eggs to supply the local
demand. Now practically every town
ships out poultry and eggs to outside
points. The amount of money paid
out to the farmers of southwestern
Idaho each year for poultry and eggs
runs we'll up in the six figures.

WILDER now HAS
A NATIONAL BANK
New Institution, With CAPT
tai of $4,000, Opens
for Business.

'Nampa, Nov. 21.--With a capital
stock of $4,000. the First National
bank of Wilder, opened up for bust
ness at that place yesterday. DR.. John
Pipher. of this city, the president of the
new bank, has had an extensive expert
ence in the banking business, having
been identified with the banking inter-
ests of Iowa for over "a years. and his
connection with the new institution is
highly productive of confidence In it's
future. Other officials of the new bank
are ]. I. Merdith, vice president: r. C.
Pipher. cashier. In Iowa, where Dr.
Pipher formerly resided he was rec
ognized as one of the states leading
financiers. Indications of his standing
in the banking circles of that state is
the following reference from his old
home paper of Cass county, Iowa:
THE officers of the new bank are:
John Pipher, president; j. l.. Mere
dith. vice president, and r. C. Pipher
cashier. The Piphers have the con-
trolling interest in the bank.
IOWA BANKER "a YEARS.
DR.. Pipher was identified with the
banking interests of this section of
Iowa for "a consecutive years. He was
an early stakeholder of the First Ma
tional bank of Griswold, and later
with Hamilton Wilcox, organized the
Bank of Lewis, and later these gentle
men opened the Bank of Griswod in
1888, DR.. Pipher being cashier. When
the Bank of Griswold was succeeded
by the Griswold National bank, DR..
Pipher retained an interest though then
a resident of Idaho. He also assisted
IN the organization of the Bank of
Grant, later becoming sole owner.
DR.. Pipher was recognized as
man Of good business ability and his
banking business was crowned with
success. We therefore venture that
the new institution in Wilder will be
abundantly successful under the capa-
bic management of DR.. Pipher, his son
and MIR. Meredith. who is also well and
favorably known In our midst"

Caldwell Nov. 21.--Many Of the
| schools of Canyon county are taking
an active part in neighborhood ac-

factors in community life. In order to
encourage this, and to determine how
much is being done along these lines,
the teachers have been asked to send
in a monthly report of the community
activities of their schools.

friends, which makes for success. With
the BIG PLAYER PIANO OFFER to
assist her, she now has the chance to
step In and become a real contender,
not only for this splendid c4S5 Eilers

ALL THAT IS NEEDED IS A FEW
HOURS EARNEST TRYING.
SECOND MISUNDERSTANDING
IMPORTANT.
Here is the source of many votes for
you, one that may bring you a large
share of the extra votes offered now,
and also bring you handsome gift at
the finish - SECOND PAYMENTS.
You know a person who subscribed as
NEW" at the start of the campaign
is NEW" throughout, even if he or
she should make several payments.
Lots of candidates have specialized on
three months subscriptions. Now, if
you an follow in the footsteps of these
and where others have secured small
subscriptions, you can secure addi-
tional payments, don't you see where
your efforts are bringing you?-To the
source of many new subscriptions.
Suppose Mr.. A has given another can
didate a three months subscription
By this time he is fully acquainted
with The Capital News as a real news
paper and will be ready to subscribe
for a longer period. If YOU secured
this Second Payment for six months or
a year, this, will add to your total on
this big offer and increase your
chances of success, FOR ONCE A
SUBSCRIBER is NEW HE is NEW
THROUGHOUT THE CAMPAIGN.
ANOTHER FEATURE OF SECOND
PAYMENTS.
Then, again, see what these Second
Payments do for you. Suppose the
First Payment was for three months
new, and earned you 1000 regular
votes. Then. say, for instance, that
you secure this same persons addi-
tional nine months subscription, max
ing year in all. The regular votes
on a new yearly subscription are
$4,000. So your nine months sub
scription would give you the differ
ence between the 1000 votes given on
new. three months subscription and
the $4,000 given for a new yearly sub
scription, or $1,000 votes on this Sc
cond Payment. This ruling also ap-
plies to any Second Payments or Third
Payments you may secure. Always
mark such stubs Second Payment in
such cases and say when and what
amount the first payment was.
