BRIEF NOTES FROM
THE STATE CAPITOL

At a meeting of the state de-
positOry board, Jan. % was set as
the date for nearing the appeal
from the refusal of State Bank
Commissioner Hit to grant a
charter for another bank at Kim
berly, applied for by L. H. Wal
den, G. b. Smith and others. The
bank commissioner held one bank
was enough for Kimberly and two
would weaken the present and in
coming banks. The board or
dered an audit Of the treasury
moneys and accounts.
The public utilities commits
sion has issued an order calling
on all public utilities operating
in this state to file annual re-
ports with it on or before Sept,
80, covering the year ending
with Dec. 81 preceding.
In his biennial report Former
State Auditor Fred l.. Huston rec
commended that the Office of state

ATTEMPT TO REMOVE
kooTENAI ASSESSOR

A street rumOr circulating with
remarkable persistence is to the
effect that one of the first acts of
the new board of county commits
sioners after they are organized
next Monday will be to make a
move to dispOssess Fred Wonna-
colt Of the office of County As
SCISSOR.
This rumOr is accompanied
with such a full measure of de-
tail as to either give it credibili-
ty or to invest its inventor with a
remarkable gift Of imagination.
1t is stated that the man who will
be appointed to the office if the
proposed scheme is successful is
Harry L. Clark of Lane, a ranch
er of the Occur d'Alene river val
ley. Mr.. Clark was a candidate
for commissioner on the Re
publican ticket at the last pri-
mary, but was defeated by Hans
Johnson, a member of the new
board.
It is also positively stated that
a resolution declaring the office
Of assessor vacant already has
been prepared, that likewise a
bond is ready for approval, and
that things will move at a lively
pace after the new board is or
ganized.
County officials in a position to
know something about the prob
ability of such rumOrs being au-
thentic refuse to discuss the
question. All that could be
gathered from any of them was
a statement from the present
members of the board that no
such action is contemplated by
them. "Mr. WOnnacOtt's term
does not expire before ours and
apparently any steps to dispos-
sess him of his Office could not be
undertaken with hope of success
at this time" said Chairman
Ferguson.
Apparently the attempt to dis
possess Wonnacott will be baseC
upon the contention that his
term of Office has expired. Or
the other hand Mr.. Wonnacott in
sists that the law means what i
says when it declares that cleo
tive officials hold Office It'll theiI

PAYS FOR 16O
ACRES OF LAND
from the Crop Of Wheat on SO
Acres in Western Canada.

This story Of paying for your land
out of one years crop is fully authen-
ticated by, a great many farmers in
Western Canada.
And now, all that the farmer makes
Is velvet and you find him going more
extensively into stock raising, for all
authorities agree that in short time
there will be demand for live stock,
such rs even will tax the vast re-
sources Of Western Canada. They
will go into stock raising because of
the adaptability of the country to pro-
vide food and fodder without feeding
grain If necessary. They will go into
stock and improve their places. They
will install steam and heating plants
in fact, many are now doing it. They
will have automobiles, in fact in many
districts there is not farmer but has
one. They will beautify their homes
and erect fine barns until the whole
country will be as attractive as many
of the counties in the best states in
the Union. But we started out to tell
you of the farmer who paid for 100
acres of land from the crop of wheat
oll VI do dcEeS- L he Ilolueu ulSlIlCt
on the line of the Grand Trunk Pacific
does not appear to the ordinary OBJ
server to be any better than many
other districts along that line, and
probably isn't. It was in this district
that John Larcome, settler pur-
chased in 1915 16O acres of raw prai-
rie'nland. He broke and seeded SO
acres. His crop turned out well, and
he sold the greater portion of it for
$2,07O. His land cost him S16.5O per
acre, or $2,64O. So that the crop from
the SO acres paid for the land and left
a balance of over $500, which with
part of the crop left over would just
pay for the cost of operation. This
is not really an unusual case, hundreds
of other farmers in Alberta and Sas-
katchewan having been able to do the
same.
Sales Of land are being reported
from many districts in Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan and Alberta at good prices.
And values are yet low. but with the
flow of any value that will take place
after the war, no doubt they will be
considerably increased. The home
steads in the Park sections which are
to be had actually free are having
