HOMESEEKERS FROM
THE MIDDLE WEST
ARRIVING DAILY

Caldwell, April 81. Immigrants
from the eastern and middle western
states continue to arrive and purchase
farms in the Wilder, Deer Flat and
Greenleaf communities, all of which
are tributary to. this city. From
general agricultural viewpoint it may
be said that the lands in these COM
munities are of the most fertile soil
to be found in the Pacific northwest
which fact was abundantly evidenced
by the crops of thee farmers of these
several communities last year when
numerous farmers raised crops, which,
when sold, equaled the valuations of
their farms. Illustrative of the real
estate activity in these respective
communities Is the fact that Frank
Herlocker r. zeal estate man, of Green
leaf, has sold 20 highly developed
farr-s in the Greenleaf community
since July Is of ;ast year.

CALDWELL HAVING
RED HOT CAMPAIGN

Caldwell, April 21.-Never before in

aggressive municipal campaign been
waged as is now in progress, and each
day the activities of the followers Of f.
Fl. Plowhead and Fred L. Lilly, the
contesting candidates for mayor, ap-
pear to assume increased proportions
Adding to the intensity Of the campaign
is the fact that the two newspapers
Of the city have entered as factors and
are vigorously championing the cause
of their respective candidates, the
Caldwell Tribune standing as the ex-
ponent of the Lilly ticket and the Cald-
well News espousing the candidacy of
Plowhead. Mr.. Plowhead is the cashier
of the Commercial bank, while Mr..
Lilly is the assistant manager of the
Caldwell Milling a. Elevator COM
pany. Both are men of recognized
ability and of commanding influence,
and as a consequence the campaign is
featured by the fullest measure of ac-
tivity.

PROFITS IN RAISING
OF PUREBRED SHEEP

Caldwell, April 21.-Throughout the
country tributary to this city sheep
raising is being engaged in by the
farmers on q limited scale, and as a
consequence of the great profit which
has been derived by those who have
engaged in the industry, it promises to
assume great proportions and to be
correlated with the agricultural oper-
atoms of the vast majority OF farms
in all of the surrounding agricultural
communities. Only purebred sheep
have been purchased by the farmers,
Shropshires being the leading type, and
sheep men from all over this and ad-
jacent states come here to purchase
rams for their flocks and pay exceed
ingly fancy prices for them.
One notable instance of the great
profit derived from this industry is
that of the, handsome sum of money
made last year by ID. l.. Bailey on his
farm in the Deer Flat community near
this city. In December of 1916, Mr..
Bailey purchased 25 Shropshire ewes
for $500. Last fall he sold 40 lambs
for $500 and wool from the flock for
the sum of $3.50. This last week he
sold out his original flock for the sum
of $500. He estimates that the feed
for the entire flock for the period he
owned it amounted to 800 which left
him net profit of $3.50.

WATER USERS PAYING THE
lEVlES TO CARRY ON FIGHT.

Caldwell, April 2l.-1ndicative of the
purpose of the members of the Boise
Payette Water Users association to
wage an aggressive fight for reduc-
ton of the estimated cost of water
rights on the project from the national
government is the rapidity with which
they are raging to the secretary of the
association, l.. a. Magee, the 10 per
cent levy upon approximately $4,000
acres of land upon the project for the
purpose of employing counsel to con-
duct the fight for reduced cost on wat
er rights and other expenses incidental

area upon which the assessment is
applicable, has been reduced to about
$1,000 acres, upon which the levy
amounts to $500 and of this sum there
is now deposited in the banks the SUM

presented at the recent safety confer
ence held under the auspices of the

ical examination of employees and wide

statistics to the effect that the aver
age worker loses about. nine days a

stated.
