land from the Hiawatha Land g. Water
company, southeast of the city.
They have ordered a carload Of seed
potatoes-Netted Gems-from Poca-
tello. This seed is certified stock raised
in the Idaho Falls section, on the best
potato land in the state.
The proposition has been fully
financed. and all arrangements made
for planting. The venture will entail
experienced farmer, will have charge
of the work, and will begin breaking
the land at once. 1t is expected to have
the entire 40 acres planted by June l..
A meeting of the club was held last
evening to complete the organization
and arrange all details.
The members Of the club are William
U. Hews, receiver of the United States
land office; Ben R. Gray, register of
the United States land office; Levi
Rosengren, clerk in the land office;
Wesley B. George, of the Blaine County

The object of the club is to increase
the supply of potatoes on the local

These gentlemen are to be commend
ed for their action and If all cities

far toward preventing another potato
shortage. There is room for another
club in this city.
From all indications there is no
danger of loss so far as markets are

money will be repaid in full, anG should
earn good interest on their investments
without placing a prohibitive price on
their product.
1t is the hope of everyone that the
HALEY Potato club will have a bumper
crop.

NEW YORK SUN REVIEW.

New York, May 12.-The New York
Evening Sun financial review today
said:
Today's short session Of the stock
market was devoid of more than the
most nominal interest Trading was
quiet in the extreme and the trend
of prices was downward, although
within narrow limits. 1t was clear
that only the professional operators
were participating in such trading as
there was a desire to clear up ac-
counts for the week end.
There is still much to be clarified
in the capital before confidence in
securities circles can be fully re-
stored, but that the process is under
way can scarcely be doubted. There
is some anxiety that too much taxa
ton may be undertaken in the first
year Of the war, but there is still am
pie opportunity of the Objectionable
features as a revenue bill to be elm
mated before it is placed on the
statute books.
There was no initiative whatever In
the market. Prices were unstable,
but movements we're narrow save for
few strong and weak spots. United
States Steel an other standard in
dustrials ruled fractionally lower al
though in the late trading prices dis
played firmer trend all along the
line. The motor and traction stocks
were under pressure
