LEE MOORE
KILLED At FRONT

Word was received by Mr.. L. &.
Moore last Friday morning that his
sen, Lee Moore, had been killed in
action on the battlefield in France,
October 22nd. Thus another son has
made the supreme sacrifice for his
country He has paid the price that
the world might be made free from
the iron grip of autocracy. Lee
was inducted into the service Of the
United States from HALEY, Idaho,
September 5th, 1917, and at that
time entered the training camp at
Camp Lewis, and on August LIST, 1918
sailed for France. He was big
husky young man % years old
with the best Of moral habits. Just
before sailing to take up his part In
the worlds struggle, he was home on
a few days leave and stated at
that time he was anxious to go
and do what he believed TO be his
patriotic duty. He also took out
his full quota of insurance wHich
will be left to his relatives. He
will ever be remembered by many
friends who also extend to the rela-
tives their sincere sympathy in the
loss of a true American who leaves
just a little mound some where to
mark the spot, the last resting place
Of a boy who gave his all In the
cause of freedom for the world.

AUTOMOBILE
COLLISION

Wednesday CT last week. c. h.
Huntington and DIR. w. B. Sims,
while going from Payette to the
Huntington ranch near Fruit nd,
I'm an auto, met with an ascifent
that might have been very serious.
Just after they had cross d the
railroad track south of the Fayette
river bridge and had made the turn
going straight south, they met two
linsmen from Ontario coming at a
furious rate and just before meeting
the Ontario car skidded to the wrong
side bringing the two cars together
with disastrous results. DR.. Sim 8
was thrown out beside tie road and
besides being famed up with sprain
ed ankle, received a bad cut on the
back of the head with some of the
flying debris One CT the lin A-en
was also thrown to the ground and
quite badly hurt. Both cars were
almost totally demolis he'd. DR.. SINS
was taken to the Fouts home which
was nearby and after having his
wound dressed was L ken on 10 Mr..
Huntington's place where his blood
stained cloths were exchar gid fer
others and after admin 'stering to
his patient, was brought to Payette
and his wounds properly dressed
and is now doing ni,ely but IS II
wearing a bandage. The injured line
man was taken to Ontario in a
passing car where it was discovered
that several ribs were broken but
otherwise not seriously injured. Mr..
Huntington and the other man es-
capped with but slight bruises.

RED CROSS
ELECTION

The election of directors was held
as per notice last Saturday. The re
suit seems to be an endorsement OF
the work in the past, in the same
way that the Deacon's nap was an
endorsement of his minister. He
didn't need to stay awake, because
he knew that everything would be
perfectly orthodox.
The few people who voted cast
their ballots so that Mrs. Crump was
elected chairman of the Board of
Directors, Miss Anna johnson Sec
ond member, and Mrs. Muller tied
with Chas. Bolton fer the third place.
The decision between the two has
not been made yet. But whether the
one or the other we have Board
that will hold the confidence of the
supporters of the work.
The Board will meet soon and APP
point the chairman and other officers
for next years activities, which will
probably be equal to those of the
year past if not even greater.

LETTER
FROM FRANCE

Below we are publishing a lette
received by Mrs. Hattie Shafer, writ
ten in French and translated by Mrs
C. F. Muller, which we believe viii
be of interest to our readers:
Sunday, Nov. 3, 1918
Dear Madam,
Dear Friend
l received your letter ard
thank you for the pleasure you gave
me in sending me your photo; yoU
can count on mine.
thank very sincerely the friend
who translated my letter, please give
me her address, because she has bee;
in France, she is surely good fri
end.
Cliff is very nice and we love him
like a brother because he loves us
much and speaks every evening CT
your country, your habits. That gives
us pleasure because we have a large
number of Americans coming to cur
house. All speak with respect of theil
families and always particularly of
their mothers.
l often sing for cur wounded sol
diers, and like you, we give great
care TO the sick ones-each one to
his duty. This terrible war will be
finished soon and your dear son
will return to see you dearer than
before.
am glad that you are a Grand
mother. Give my compliments to
the Mama also to your son, and may
God guard ycu and keep close to you
as long as possible.
When you will have my photo
graph you will ses your little cores
pondent of Is years. / believe that
you will answer all my letters be-
cause my only diversion is letter
writing
am waiting for Cliff to show
him your letter. He will be happy
because he so often asks me to
write you, but I believe you find
my letters very uninteresting. But l
am happy TO have a reply
If Mr. Shafer comes to France will
he come to see US.
l have news to give you Cliff
speaks French very well and we un-
derstand him well now. 1 speak En-
lish very well also but 1 cannot
translate a letter. There is so much
difference between hearing and speal
ing English. 1 find the spelling so
difficult
| am going to take lessons because
for business it is almost necessary,
after the War.
Awaiting the pleasure of a letter
from you, my parents and my two
sisters send their best wishes, ant
|, my friendship and my regards.
Your good little friend gives her

IMPRESSIONS OF
FARM BUREAU WORK

/ The Editor asked the PRESIDENT OF
the farm bureau Ior his Impressions
OF TINS -oreanIza,ion. ana this is
what he says:
After ten months Of Farm Bu-
reau and County Agent wor6 IN
this county, We might ask ourselves
in this day Of commercialism-what
did it ecst, and what did il pay.
The Farm Bureau funds come,
from the Government one thousand
dollars. from Payette County two
thousand dollars, from memberships
one hundred seventy-six dollars.
These pay the expenses Of maintain
ing an office, a Ford, the County
Agents salary, vaccinating outfits,
etc.
The farm problems taken up dur
ing the year weie rest con .rUl, Dai- =
ing, blaeKleg Control, crop Improve
ment, boys and Gir4s Cub Work,
Livestock Improvement. Concerning
these, the Executive Committee
elected to direct this work report
that definite progress has BEN made

only one bushel more or $3.50 0Lsnels
worth $500 each or over S1500.00I
saved. Over 3z00 head Of yo-Lg cat
tic have been protected from black-
leg without a cent Of expense to
stockmen. This protection sayed over
$4,000 worth Of cattle that would
have died, and saved S16V0.00 vet
erinary fees as ali vaccine is fu-n-s4-

By having this central labor office
excessive wages have-pesn larseiy
prevented and at least $4,000 has
been saved by having a central Of
flee where farmlrs Lhoned Tor and
secured 233 farm hands.
Personally l believe that another
year can double the ben>fi 90
tanned from this sort of work. The
figures l mfnt4oned above are only
part of the good work tho they to-
tai the modest sum OF s12, 5000. In
addition about sI2,GOO.OO wo.th OF
hay orders have passed over the
Farm Bursau desk.
Next year the organization must
be stronger as the alfalfa weevil
must be controlled. a blttsr organ
zation can secure better roads, bet

ever the knockers appear to be

The officers this year are G. L.

Boomer, and L. d. Carpenter of
New Plymouth; Jas. H Boor of
Fruitland; John Hill, H. Gregory,
E. F. Harper, A. A. Stroup and my
self of Payette.
1 believe it has done excellent
work in ten short months and ranch
ers who wish to boost this Bureau
for next year should come to the
annual meeting a week from Satur~
lay or December 14th, and help plan
