Letter From Idaho
Twin Falls, Ida, Dec. II, 1918

Twin Falls, Ida, Dec. II, 1918
Editor Recorder:
Dear Sir thought perhaps a
few lines from the Gem State"
might interest few Of your readers,
if you have place for them.
We came to Idaho five years ago
to make our home. We landed here
strangers in a strange land, but not
for long; we soon made new friends
and feel as much at home here as
any where we have eXer lived.
The people here, while not as hos
pitable as the people in the South,
will dig down deeper in their pockets
to help a man in trouble, than any
place I have ever lived.
The Twin Falls Tract of land was
put in operation about fifteen years
ago, when they put dam in snake
river and surveyed canals and later
ais to carry the snow water from the
mountains out over the sage brush
desert, and today the Twin Fall tract
will produce as much, or more than
any other tract its size in the U. S.
The city Of Twin Falls takes its
name from the Twin Falls on Snake
River, three miles east Of here, where
the river is divided by big ledge of
rock and falls to the bottom, a dis
lance of 60 feet.
Shoshone Falls, (the Niagara Of the
Wcst) is about one mile below the
Twin Falls, and is a wonderful sight
to behold Old Snake rushes over a
precipice two hundred and ten feet
high, and makes a sight beyond my
description. I will send you pic
ture or two Of the falls, which will
give you a faint idea of what Twin
and Shoshone falls look like.
The Snake river canon is from five
to seven hundred feet deep, and some
places the walls are nearly perpendi-
cular.
We have had q very nice fail so
far, farmers were still blowing two
days ago. We can see plenty of
snow On the Saw Tooth mountains
seventy-fve miles from here. The
snow will stay on the mountains
from now until next July or August,
before it is all gone.
The principal crops raised here
are wheat, barly, oats, beans, onions,
potatoes, alfalfa hay and clover seed.
The farmers who have clover seed
this fall are making money as it is40
cents per pound, and clover seed is
good this year, making eight and
nine bushels per acre. This is red
clover, white c. has made as high
as IT blu. per acre, wheat make from
thirty to sevfnty-hve bu. this year,

cans from twenty-five to forty bu.

leans from twenty-five to forty bu.
We cut alfalfa hay three times 4
=car. get from four to six ton per
acre. If any one in Highland is
short on hay. send them to me. have
two hundred tons. this years hay. l
will sell at ten dollars Il ton.
When this tract was first opened
ip the settlers put out lots Of orchards
md otter they cot 10 bearing they
lad 50 much fralit they had no sale
for it. end in the last three years
there have been hundreds Of acres OF
frees pulled up and burnt.
l often think that if the Highland
people understood irrigation, how
much they could better their hay
crops and posture land by using.
those beautiful mountain streams to
:rrigatc. Any enc interested should
make a trip out here and learn how

Well. lir Editor. I don't know if
YOU will publish this or not. but ]
think you should, for 7 have been
gone from dear old Highland for
seventeen years and have always TAX
cn the Recorder. and this is the first
letter have ever hu;nercl you with
and If there is any thing that SOUNDS
unreasonable, just come out to Idaho
and l will show you for used to.liye
in Missouri.
With best regards to all.

Dear Mother:
This is sure one dreary old day

Two weeks and does not look as IL 1t

that the war is over, everyone wants

dear old States.
We get a service stripe in a few
DAYS, but if were going home l
would let the service stripe go. l
would be the happiest soldier alive
if | thought l were going to eat
Christmas dinner at home. I am not
going to send any gifts home now
because it may not reach you, as not
half of my letters have reached you.
But | will try and bring all oil you

cause we were in the trenches fight
ing like Sam Hill" at the time
when they we're issued and when we
we're relieved I thought it would be
too late, as they had to be in by Sep.
list. But never mind, mother, dear
will know that all of you are
thinking of and praying for me and
that will be present enough. We
have soften used to doing without
things by now.

.!ared our last piece Of bread and
also our blanket. We have read
the Bible to one another when we
could scarcely hear one another's
voice for the screaming and burst
ing Of shells. We slept for ) nights
m a little wooden shack and shells
bursting so close that it rocked like
a ship at sea. A piece of shrapnel
came through the wall and tore a

fourth night we left it and went to
another place and that night it was

On June is the dealers were con-
frented with another communIca-
ton from the men 1t stated that
inasmuch as the earlier letter had
not produced a reply. the employees
wanted the employers to meet them
and the night of June 10 was set as
the date for the proposed confer
ence. The letter was unsigned, anu
was not written on the stationery
of the union, as the previous com
had been. The dealers
paid no attention to the request.

The last letter, which contained
the strike ultimatum, was received
by the dealers Tuesday of this
week, the day of their annual pic
mic. 1t demanded that a meeting
take place that night at Industrial

Rock Island labored under the
|sweltering rays of a torrid sun to-
day.
Ice! Ice, Everywhere, but not q
lick to sooth!
True to their statement. the ice
men slept late this morning. Some
% or 30 of them failed to report
for work and the threatened strike
was on. The only ice being deliver
ed in the city today is that handed
by three of the smaller dealers. who
have been accustomed to the labor
of supplying their customers. They
are John Seigrist of the Seigrist Ice
company. Carl Schmacht of the
Mississippi Ice company and
Charles Weinberger of the Rock
Island Ice company.
In" substance the men want in
creases in pay which will make the
weekly envelope range from $50 to
s2S. an average of SO per week
more than they are receiving in
Peoria or Davenport The present
wages are from SO to $24 per
week.
AS stated by A D. Huesing of the
Rock Island Artificial Ice company
this morning, the dealers. seven IN
all, are willing to meet the men I'M
der the terms of a contract dated
June 81. 1915, which calls for arbi-
tTation of all disputes, during the
progress of which no strike shall
occur.
The agreement is dated June 81
1915 to expire May 1. 1919, but IN
der the Interpretation of a letter
dated May 3, 1919 and signed by thu
officers of the teamsters' local. No
295, the dealers still regard the
contract in effect. The letter reads
that if the dealers have no desire t.,
enter into new contract the union
would then regard the old contract
as effective until June /, 1920. an
extension of Is months. II was
written upon the letter head of the
union and stamped with the seal OF
the organization.
Regarding the communication in
the light of a renewal of the old
contract, the dealers say they dis
missed the subject under the I'M
preston that the men were content
with present condition. Under the
agreement the wage scale ranged
from SIS to $50 per week. accord
ing to the experience and com
potency of the employees.
War conditions of last summer
resulted in higher wages for the
men, regardless of the terms of the
contract Mr.. Huesing states he vol
unfairly raised the pay of his men
to S24 per- week for each.
