$4,000 POLICY COMES IN
HANDY AFTER ACCIDENT

The above head lines appeared
in the Idaho Daily Statesman OF last
Saturday, over an article givinA
the account of the accidental death
of Clyde Mathews who fell from
a hay stack and broke his neck. He
leaves his wife and eight small chill,
dren with $4,000 in cash after pay
ing but one years premium on his
death and accident policy.
The same kind of policy can be
had by calling at my office in the
First National Bank Building. In
case of accidental death the bene-
ficiary is paid double the amount of
the policy. In case of total disability
one-tenth of the face of the policy
is paid annually, the company waiv-
ing the payment of all premiums,
and at death the full face of the
policy is paid to the beneficiary.
Call NOW Delays are dangerous.

AUTO CRASHES
into WINDOW


Elsewhere III this issue we have
an article New Restaurant Open
ed.y On Wednesday morning about
one a. m. it was again opened and in
much less time and without any
preparation Everett Mendenhall
and Jack BrassfieId were out with
a couple OF young ladies for a joy
ride and had parked their ear in
front of Thompson's new restaurant
while they were in for refreshments,
and in backing the car away from
the curb il seems young Menden-
hall who was at the wheel, got the
fringe on the robe mixed up with
the throttle, causing him to loose
control of the car The car made al
most a complete circle, backing over
the curb and into the plate glass
window, causing a complete wreck
of the north half of the front. For
tunateIy no one was hurt and but
little damage was done to the car.
The next morning the young men
did the right thing By going TO Mr..
Jacobsen and explained the acct
dent and agreed TO pay all damages.

EVER
KNOWN

The Payette River is at the pres
ent time lower than it has ever been
known since the first settlers came
to this Valley. We are informed by
Mr.. Holt who is in charge of the
Lower Payette Ditch, that at the
point of diversion of this canal all
the water is taken out of the river
and the ditch is not running at full
capacity. There is considerable wa
ter going down the river here at
Payette but it seems to be sepage
and vast from the bitches on the
Fruitland bench 1t is quite likely
that for the first time in the history
of the irrigation systems of the
Payette river that the priority rights
of bitches will be used. However
we do not anticipate any loss from
shortage of water as the nights are
beginning TO get cool which usually
causes rise in the feeders to the
river. And with cooler weather the
ground will not require as much wa
ter.

A BIG REAL ESTATE DEAL
With Love,
Forrest.

One of the largest transfers of
real estate in this valley for some
time was the sale on last Monday
of the j. r. Mckinney ranch of 1856
acres near New Plymouth to Ben
Strohbehn. The consideration being
$4,000 Mr., Strohbehn came tG
this valley some 10 or 16 years ago
and has been gradually picking up
land around Payette, Fruitland and
New Plymouth until he is now the
heaviest land owner in the County.
This last buy is an excellent stock
ranch which is Just suited to the
needs of Mr.. Strohbehn as he is al
so quite heavily interested in stock
as well as land. He will get possess
ion of the place March 1st. The
deal was made by B. R, Fitch.

JONATHAN HARVESTING. TWO
years ago we estimate a loss of 40
cars of boxed Jonathans valued al
100000 because of over-ripeness.
Part of this loss was due to delay in
picking. An example of this is the
/ Government test that Fall showing
that Jonathans picked as late as
! October 10th suffered Is per cent
\ loss. And yet a census the County
Agent made that same October, 1917
showed that out of 10000 boxes
reported there were $4,000 boxes

October 10th. The Government test
also showed that delayed for cold

business. On Monday night when
the east bound train passed through
town he was at the Depot and SEEM
ingly became suspicious of the
night man, and boarded the train
as if leaving town, but few min
utes later telephone massage came
from Ontario, through information
of the Conductor, saying that he
left the train shortly after leaving
the depot Mr.. Fenske, realizing a
black spot was hard to find in the
dark. called the Sheriff to assist
in locating the man. Mr.. Jefferis
had not gone from the house more
than a block when he met the gentle
man in question making his way
through the north part of town. he
was landed in the Jail for the re-
mainder of the night and taken be-
fore Judge Luther the next morning
who relieved him of $4,000 and sent
him out of town. The officers have
good reason to believe he Is boot
logger but have no evidence to cause
conviction.

MIR. AND MRS. FARBER RETURN

Mr.. and Mrs. w H. Farber return
ed last Saturday from an extended
trip to eastern Kansas and Nebraska.
They made the trip by auto, cover
ing about $500 miles, without any
mishap and were gone about ten
weeks. Mr.. Farber says corn in that
country is looking very good, but
all small grain is badly damaged by
wet and hot weather. Many places
it is being burned in the field, and
whore it is worth harvesting, will
be very light. Notwithstanding this
fact, the farmers are all making
plenty of money. Mr. and Mrs. John
Reynolds and daughter accompani-
ed them on their return and after
investigating this country may de-
eide to locate here. Mr.. Reynolds
is a brother-in-law of Mr.. Farber.
