Advices received by j. NJ. Thompson
attorney for the Black Canyon irriga-
ton district, are to the effect that re-
clamation service officials have APP
proved the contract for taking into
the Boise project $4,000 acres of this
districts lands. The contract was re-
Gently drawn up under direction of the
Black Canyon directors and submit
ted to the Washington county officials.
Before the agreement with the gov
eminent relative to inclusion of the
new lands in the existing project be-
comes binding, it will be necessary
for the electors of the district to vote
their approval at special election.
As the approval is strongly favored
by the settlers, little or no opposition
to the contract is anticipated. Before
the extension can actively be under
taken it will be necessary to Obtain
an appropriation from congress.
There are hopes here that the neces-
sary funds may be voted at the next
session of congress.

Organize Hunt for the So.

An ldiana woman was peeling
potatoes. She cut into one that was
hollow and inside it found a note
from the Southern farmer who had
raised the potatoes. The note read:
got sixty-nine cents a bushe for
these potatoes. How much did you
pay for them?
She wrote back:
/ paid 81 per bushel.
The farmer sent her just one more
letter. II said:
got sixty-nine cents for those
potatoes. 1t could not have cost more
than thirty-one cents to carry them
to you. Who got the other So. |
am going to try to find out.
That was the end of the CORES
pondence, but not the end of the
matter. A farmer in Texas set out
to look for that SO, and woman in
Indiana set out on the same search.
They are typical of thousands of pro-
ducers and consumers in these United
States.

Firms as much liberty as they hac
before. He promised they could have
their own constitution and legislature,
could make their own laws, have their
own schools, and they need not give
men to the Russian army unless they
wished to, and then their regiments
should be differed by Firms. Every
thing went along finely for many
years while the czars kept their word
and gave the Firms a large measure
of freedom, and under that benign
rule Finland developed. They had
banished serfdom hundreds of years
before Russia did. They had absolute
prohibition Of the liquor traffic, and
wonan's suffrage, with eighteen wo-
men in the legislature; and pensions
for aged persons who had been honest
and Industrious; free education with
all children in the schools
And then Russia changed its policy
and began to Russify Finland. The
Diet, or Legislature, was shorn Of all
is powers, which practically abolish

ars year was imposed; great
evy of young men for the army was
made, and when the men refused To

way. The Firms were forbidden to
peak their own language; only Rus
ian could be taught in the schools,

What OfFinIand?

Finland has declared its indepen
dence of Russia. What of Finland?
The average American reade
thinks of the country as a snow,
Arctic waste; of its people fur-clad
blubber eating dwarfs, who drive rein
deer, live in snow huts and hunt polar
bear and walrus.
The winters are long and cold in
Finland, but not more so than they
are in settled parts of Western Cana
da. The summers are about as warm
as those of Minnesota.
Finland is the home of a cultured
and hospitable people who are build
ing great cities and great commerce.
There are about 3 million of them,
white race, with blue eyes and blond
hair, mostly, and twenty-three of
every one hundred are actually in
school. They have great universities,
great poets and literature of their
own.
The Firms have been in Finland
f'i '''ic IMAM a lHouSdHu years. lHey
were probably Of Tartar origin and
were driven there from the Volga
district in the south. Seven hundred
years ago Sweden undertook to sub
due the Firms. 1t took her one hun
bred years to do il, and even then
she did not conquer them, and to .
keep the Firms quiet Sweden had to {
let them have autonomous constitution q

years. In these five centuries /
