Funeral of Max Chenier

The funeral of Max Chenier was
held last Saturday from the Moore
Undertaking parlors, the Rev. Will
bur officiating, and the services be-
ing conducted by the Odd Fellows
lodge. Interment was made in the
Boomers Ferry cemetery.
A large number of the friends and
neighbors of the deceased were in
attendance at the funeral to pay
their last respects to the worth of
a neighbor who was held in high
esteem by all who knew him, being
one of the largest attended funer-
ais held in Bonners Ferry for some
time.
Besides the immediate members
of the family, a brother, Mr.. ]
P. Chenier, of Kansas City, was also
present.
The deceased was 38 years OF
age and death was due to a rupturec
appendix. He is survived by a wife
and three children, who have the
real sympathy of the community il
their bereavement.

Basket ball fans are expecting to
see the best game of the season
on Friday night, January 18th, when
the local high school five will meet
the Kalispell, Mont, team on the
local gymnasium floor.
The local five played Kalispell a
few weeks ago on the Kalispell floor
and lost out by a score of "a to 80.
In the coming game the home team
is confident that it will be able to
reverse this score. Coach Plummer
and the high school team feel that
they are entitled to unanimous sup
port from the Boomers Ferry fans
and it is urged that everyone come
out to see this game and root for
the home team. In the game last
Saturday night the local team did
not receive enough money from the
sale of tickets to pay the expenses
of the visitors. If the basket ball
games do not receive liberal patron
age they will have to be discon-
tinued.
A dance will be given after the
game Friday night. The game
starts promptly at $50 p. m.

Mr.. and Mrs. Davis Entertain

A company of the friends of Mr..
and Mrs. o. S. Davis were pleas
antly entertained at the Davis home
last Friday evening at the "kids"
dancing party. The event was in
honor of Mrs. Florence Warmer, a
sister of Mrs. Davis, who left yes
terday for her home at Sheridan,
Wyo., after a several weeks visit
here.
All the guests wore costumes in
keeping with younger days and there
were many clever as we'll as comic
representations. Mr.. and Mrs. G..
w. Spoerry won the prizes for the
best costumes.
While dancing was the principal
amusement a part of the evening
was spent playing old fashioned
games and at midnight a delicious
lunch was served by the hostess.

FACTS ABOUT
FEDERAL LOANS
Interesting Points Concerning Loans
From New Federal Farm
Loan Banks.

There has been considerable said
and printed about the federal farm
loan act in various papers and mag
azines, and now that one of the
land banks has been located in Spo-
kane the time is fast approaching
when they will be ready to commence
making loans.
In order to take advantage of the
act it is necessary for 10 or more
farmers to form a local association
Loans may be taken out for amounts
ranging from 500 to $4,000, but
to begin with the members of an as
ISOLATION must borrow not less thar
$4,000. The rate of interest car
not exceed 6 per cent, and may
be 5, 51s, or even as low as A. This
depends upon the sale of govern
ment bonds.
Loans may be had up to so pei
cent of the value of the land anc
an additional amount equal to q
per cent of the value of the i'm.
provements. The time for which tn,
loan shall run must not be les:
than five years and can be as long
as 40 years. At the time that the
annual interest is paid a few dol
lars additional is paid to apply OF
the principal so that when the time
for which the loan was taken has
expired, the interest and principa
are paid in full.
The following table shows the pay
ments required annually to wipe GU
both the principal and interest OF
a $1,000 loan in from 10 to 40 years
at 5, 51a or 6 per cent interest:

Boomers Ferry Wins Decisive Game

Bonners Ferry Wins Decisive Game
AS the opening game of the basket
ball season in Bonners Ferry, Coach
Plummer, the Bonners Ferry high
school basket ball team won a de-
cisive victory over the husky Eureka
five last Saturday evening, the score
being % to Ia.
The Eureka team was slow in get
ting started and allowed the local
boys to secure a lead of IL to
the first half, but they started with
rush the second period and cut
this down to three points. At this
time the local boys came back and
gradually increased their lead until
it reached the final total.
There were several pleasing fea-
lures of the game, among them the
clean playing, the satisfactory ref
creeing of Jarvis, and the close
guarding Of both teams. Bonners
Ferry was particularly handicapped
in this latter respect as both regular
guards were out of the game, Stew
art for breaking training rules and
Luse on account of illness.
The visitors man Robertson, was
their only star, making ali of their
field goals and converting two free
throws into points. His shooting
was very accurate and it was only
the excellent work of Mcnamara
at guard that kept Eureka's score
at the low figure.
For the local boys Collins was the
stellar performer. He made six
baskets, D.. one of which approached the
sensational, being from the center
of the floor.
The lineup for the Bonners Ferry
team was: Collins and Bond, for
wards; Norton, center; Mcnamara
and Thomson, guards.
Bonners Ferry herald. [volume] (Bonners Ferry, Idaho) 1904-current, 1917-01-09

a greater extent than in any pre-
vious year. While all have not
been interviewed, all who were 90
preached reported an increase in
business over 1915.
There are indications that this
prosperity for the town will con-
tinue. The practically certain To-
cation of the Great Northern freight
division yards here, the rise in price
of lumber and the consequent in
crease in activity among the saw
mills and logging camps, the prob
ability of mining development in the
county, the good prices for farm
produce, and the natural develop
ment in farm lands all tend to in
dictate prosperous year for Boomers
Ferry and the entire county.

G. w. Spoerry has been in cor
respondence with the Federal Farm
Loan Board and has the necessary
papers and instructions for forming
a local association. He would like
to have those interested see or write
him at once so that he can ar
range a meeting. 1t is proposed that
Boundary county become the local
district under the association.

SULPHITE MILL is COMPLETED
Company Is Turning Money Into
This Community in Pulp Purchase

The new sulphite mill OF the In
land Empire Paper company at Mill
wood, Washington, has been COM
pleted and is now in operation. This
mill, together with the ground wood
mill Of the company will utilize 5000
cords Of wood monthly.
At the mill the wood is cut into
two-foot lengths and the bark is
removed with special machines. Some
of the wood is pressed against large
grind stones revolving at the rate
of 240 revolutions per minute and
ground into pulp. The other wood
is cut into little chips which are
cooked with acid and steam in large
digesters.
The pulps produced are suitable
raw materials for making such
grades of paper as bond, writing,
book and newsprint, all of which
are manufactured at Wildwood.
The paper company is purchasing
wood in this territory and is af-
fording an opportunity for many
to find market for their spruce and
white fir woods. The spruce is
worth, $3.50 per cord and the white
fir is worth $500 per cord at Mill
wood.
The wood is purchased in four or
eight-foot lengths, between six and
twenty-four inches in diameter and
must be sound and round with the
bark on it.

Redpath, well known pioneer mer-

stock and buildings to John Sher-

MUCH BUILDING
DONE in 1916
BIG IMPROVEMENT IN BUSI.
NESS SECTION AND SEW
ERAL NEW HOMES
TOTAL SUM EXPENDED, SAG, 300
Indications Point to Continued Pros
Perity During 1917.

1t is becoming the custom with
many cities to cast up a balance
sheet at the end of the year and
learn in what ways the city has
grown and developed. Such cast
ing-up of local conditions shows that
Boomers Ferry has made very pleas
ing and substantial improvements in
1916, Improvements in the one year
that exceed by far the combined
growth of the past five years.
This improvement is chiefly notice
able in the number and character of
new buildings that have been erected
on Main street during 1916, and
while the new buildings on this
street naturally exceed the building
operations throughout other parts Of
the town, yet there has been con-
siderable money invested in new res
licences and improving old homes,
While no buildings of pretentious
dimensions or cost have gone up,
undoubtedly it will be a matter of
surprise to many to learn that the
sum thus expended in 1916 totals
$4,000.
Among the most noticeable of
these new business houses is the
building erected by Nicholson & Zim-
norman to house the City Meat
Market and declared by the state
pure food inspector to be a model
for the efficient and sanitary han
ding of meat; the First National
Bank building, a handsome bank
structure, not only greatly pleasing
in appearance, but arranged to han
die this banks rapidly growing bust
ness with real efficiency. The build
ing erected by Dell Cane and Wal
den Bros, and occupied respective
ly by their barber shop and clothing
store is a real addition to the towns
business houses as is also the Mrs
Belle Bishop building which houses
the C. d. Simonds drug store.
Below is given an enumeration OF
the buildings erected, with the ap-
proximate cost of each:
