WILL FIGHT ATTEMPT TO d.
VERT WATER FROM PROJECT
Nampa Settlers Think Land Within
District Should Come First.

The Nampa Leader Herald states
that rumor of an attempt being made
to divert surplus water to lands out
side of the Payette-Boise project has
aroused settlers of this vicinity and
are to be made subject of investi-
cation by the Nampa Commercial
club.
Since there are lands within the
project that are not now supplied with
water but which could be irrigated at
small expense if there is extra water
available. settlers on the project feel
that it would not only be unwise but
unjust to allow lands outside the
project to profit from such water
Would Reclaim Dry Lake.
Most important of the districts
within the project that could be easily
irrigated is the Dry Lake region near
Nampa. This is body of land COM
prising about $4,000 acres and it is
said by persons who have investigated
the subject that from 10000 to $4,000
acres-possibly more-could be
brought under cultivation if the pro-
ject continues to have as much sur
plus water as it did last year.
1t is believed that determined eff
fort will be made by the settlers in
this section as we'll as other parts OF
the project to prevent any water from
being diverted to lands outside the

One of the worst things about peo-
pie is that they are ashamed of their
estate. So far as we know, this is
true of no other biological specimen.
Dogs have no objection to being dogs,
cats are quite satisfied to be cats. and
so on, but people constantly are try
ing to get away from the fact that
they are people, and. therefore, that
they are like everybody else. They
are constantly seeking to be magnates
and bosses and representatives and
professors and bachelors of this. and
doctors of that and masters of the
other. Sometimes we can, find a fellow
who will admit that he is "real man.
but never one who will admit that he
is Just a man. Boys will be boys, and
girls will be girls, but people simply
will not be people.-Life.

Farmer Advertisers.

In looking over our exchanges we
have noticed that in practically every
part of the country the farmer is be-
ginning to advertise in the newspapers.
AT this season of the year. in every
country printing Office, bills and post
ers advertising farm sales are print
ed. In some Offices it is the custom
to reprint the poster or part of it as
an advertisement. We do not refer
to that custom. The advertisements
to which reference is made are
especially written and set to go in two
or three columns of space.
This means that the farmer is awak-
ening to the value of newspaper ad-
vertising. He puts his announcement
N the home paper, where he knows 1t
will be seen by everyone interested in
the Forthcoming sale. He knows that
it will be read carefully, for the paper
is taken into the home and pursued al
leisure. He knows that he will get
complete and perfect publicity and
that it will be worth all that the editor
charges him. Other things being
equal, the farmer who advertises hi:
sale in the newspapers will have Z
larger buying crowd at his sale thar
if he merely stuck few posters. The
posters are all right in their way. bu
they should be supplemented will
newspaper advertising.
In this respect. the farmer is point
ing a way to the old-fashioned mer
chant. The farmer buys advertised
goods. Therefore he has come t.
realize the value Of advertising. Thu
m erchant who is complaining abou
bad business or hard times should tax
leaf from the farmers book and d.
some advertising himself.

DOUGLAS CAMPBELL NEAR
HAVING NOSE BITTEN OFF
Horse Grabs Member and With Dis
astrous Consequences.

Douglas Campbell nearly lost his
nose Friday evening last by having it
bitten off by a horse.
AT the time he was bitten Mr..
Campbell was leading three horses to
water. The animals were quarreling
with each other, when. without warn
ing, one of them lieged forward,
seemingly in an atfplpt to bite a
mate, but instead clamped its teeth
about the rancher's nose.
Though it will require time for the
process to be complete, it is expected
that the unfortunate mans nasal ap-
pendage will eventually be saved.
