Pool Hall Man Presents Amusement

Pool Hall Man Presents Amusement
a la Family
H. J. Carpenter presents a prob
lem and a view of business and
farming that is a little different
from all the others. He says he
made two ventures of long duration
in farming in Oklahoma and Kan
sas, and was not very successful. He
has no enthusiasm for trying it
again at his advanced age and with
family needing immediate support,
but says that If he had only had a
chance to direct his energies in such
opportunities as now present them
selves to the young man in the Alb
erdeen country he might have met
very different results.
Mr.. Carpenter has leased the old
hotel at Aberdeen and makes it a
home for his family. The office has
been converted into a barber shop
and the dining room into a pool
room, and he and his family enter
tain lovers of the game and are I'M
dertaking to make living from it.
He says his customers are well-be-
haved men, and that by reason of
the family environment of the place,
the character of the pool hall is
blended with that of the home, thus
raising the standard of the place Of
amusement

that the entryman need only be a
resident of the State of Idaho during
the said period.
4. The provision for leave of alb
sence has been eliminated and is OBJ
viously unnecessary, nor does the
law as amended require that the en-
tryman shall be personally engaged
in cultivating the land and harvest
ing the crops.
Entries Allowed Prior to Amendment
The requirement of cultivation
during the first year will not affect
entries allowed prior to the amenda-
tory act; on the other hand, after
the date of the act, such entrymen
may avail themselves of it's pro-
visions with respect to residence and
personal employment in cultivating
the land.

INCONSISTENCIES HOME
STEADS IN IDAHO

By section 10 of the act approved
August 10, 1917, public No. 400
section 6, of the act of June II,
1910, (36 Stat, 531,) providing for
a non-residence homestead in Idaho,
was amended to read as follows:
Sec. 6. That whenever the secre-
tary of the interior shall find any
tracts of land in the State of Idaho,
subject to entry under this act, do
not have upon them such sufficient
supply of water suitable for domestic
purposes as would make continuous
residence upon the lands possible he
may, in his discretion, designate
such tracts of land, not to exceed
in the aggregate one million acres,
and thereafter they shall be subject
to entry under this act without the
necessity of residence upon the land
entered: Provided, that the entry
man shall in good faith cultivate not
less than one-sixteenth of the entire
area of the entry which is suscept-
ible of cultivation during the first
year of the entry, not less than one
eighth during the second year, and
not less than one-fourth during the
third eyar of the entry and until
final proof: Provided further, that
after six months from the date of
entry and until final proof the entry
man shall be resident of the State
of Idaho.
Effect of the Amendment
1. The amount of land which the
secretary of the interior is authoriz-
ed to designate as non-residence
homestead land is increased from
three hundred and twenty thousand
acres to one million acres.
2. One-sixteenth of area of the
entry is required to be cultivated
during the first year Of the entry,
whereas no cultivation during that
year was formerly required; the cul-
tivation requirements during the
second, third, fourth and fifth years
remain unchanged, being one-eight
for the second year, and one-fourth
for each succeeding year and until
final proof is submitted.
8. The former requirement that
entryman after six months from
date of entry and until final proof
must reside not more than 20 miles
from the land entered is so modified

to do, try to get it done before the
adjournment of school so you can
work for Others.
Soldiers have to drill several
months before going into actual SER
vice. You should drill each day
when not in school, to be getting
physically fit to hold your own in
the trenches bayoneting sugar beets
and, rendering first aid to potatoes.
Our men in the training camps drill
from five to eight hours a day and
study four hours, so they can be
effective. when they reach actual SER
vice. We hope all of you will make
the most of yourselves, and especial
ly during the October enterim. Try
carefully to render dependable
service. tt

SUGGESTION TO STUDENTS

During the October interim from
school, your time will be worth as
much to your country as the soldiers
in the first line trenches, tho the re-
suit of your neglect of duty would
not spell disaster in the same hour.
The effect of your activity or the
lack of it shows later.
Try to make arrangements in ad-
vance for rendering the greatest pos
sible service, and do not measure
this service entirely by the ready
coin it brings to you. Put the in
terests of your employer and your
country into the equation along with
your own.
II you have work of your own

A. III. HEITMAN, MERCHANT

Hardware Man Talks of Dry Farm
ing, Weeds and Soil Preparation.
A. H. Hoffman, manager for six
years of the Aberdeen Hardware
company, has had experience both as
a dry farmer and as merchant.
He has owned three dry farms, and
sold two of them for $1,000 each.
He kept them free from weeks, and
kept up their earning power. AT
the same time that he sold them,
others were offering equally good
farms for $4,000 and were unable to
sell because the earning power OF
the farms was lowered by the pres
ence of weeds, so that they either
lost $4,000 by having weeds, or he

WHY DIDN'T OTHER GOVERNORS

The Governor of Ohio saw the point.
He issued an order asking all hotels and
restaurants to save the eyes OF all po-
Itatoes used by them and thus furnish
seed for those who wanted to plant po-
tatoes This met with IN universal re-
sponse' on the part of the hotel people.

rot afford 10 buy seed potatoes got
their seed free. The eye OF potato Is

dear life there were no onion sets In

would have given that amount for a
