Schroeder Returns from Boise

Representative August Schroe-
der returned Monday evening
from Boise where he has been a
member of the state legislature
for the past two months. He re-
turned with other north Idaho
legislators in a special car from
Boise as far as Riparia.
Representative Schroeder has
made an excellent record for him
self in the house and was always
working for the best interest of
the state as whole and especially
for Idaho county. He more than
took an active interest when the
North and South appropriation
bill was framed and passed by
the legislature.
Idaho county was indeed fortu-
nate in obtaining a candidate to
accept the Office of representative
as Mr.. Schroeder, being man of
broad views, and having himself
made a splendid success of his own
private affairs he used only the
same good business judgment at
the state capitol in voting on
measures that came before that
body.
Mr.. Schroeder stated that he
was more than pleased to get
home, as the life of a lawmaker
was beginning to have it's effects
on him. He is a man, when at
home spends most of his time in
the open air.

Land Brings $11O An Acre

Jim Eller, who lives north of
Greencreek, sold his ranch Thurs
day to Geary Trautman for the
handsome sum of $110 an acre.
This land is considered to be
one of the best quarter sections
in the Greencreek section and is
located ten miles from Cotton
wood the nearest railroad station.
When men like Mr.. Trautman
purchase land at these figures,
paying $17,6O0 for a quarter it
surely must be about as good land
as lays out of doors, as he is con-
sidered to be an exceptionally
good judge of farm values.
Mr.. Eller's reason for selling his
holding was due to the fact that
he wishes to farm on a much
larger scale.
The deal was made by George
M. Reed of Grangeville.

FARM BUREAU
MEETS FAVOR
Netting Held In Cottonwood
Last Friday Well Attended
Elected Officers


The Cottonwood local of the
farm bureau was organized last
Friday afternoon at a meeting
held in the l. 0. Q, F. hall. A
fairly good crowd Of farmers and
business men were present to .lis-
ten to Lieutenant R. r. Gronin-
ger, representing the United
States Department of agriculture,
The lieutenant explained the
work carried on by a farm bureau,
Every person in attendance at
the meeting was an enthusiastic
supporter of the movement and
are now diligently working for
members. Some so were signed
up Immediately after the meeting
as members and this is expected
to be increased materially. Ow-
ing to the roads being in bad
condition many of the farmers
who had planned on attending
the meeting were unable to be
present.
The organization passed reso-
lutions asking the board of county
commissioners to appropriate the
necessary amount of money to
employ a county agent, whose
duty it will be to advice and give
the farmers valuable information
about preplexing farming ques-
tions and all such other informa-
ton that pertains to the farmer.
That this appropriation will be
made by the county fathers is the
general belief of men prominently
connected with the work and that
farmers in Idaho county will re-
ceive much benefit from the
same is an assured fact.
In various counties in Idaho
where the farm agent plan has
been given a trial the farmers are
more than pleased with it's work.
ing operations. There are now
33 counties in the state who en-
ploy a county agent.
In our neighboring county of
Lewis the farmers are more than
pleased with their agent. A farm
er from that section who was a
recent visitor in Cottonwood stat
ed that he had saved many a dol
lar from advice received from the
county agent since its operation
in Lewis county and that he knew
of many other farmers in his home
community who had also been
helped financially from advice
obtained from the same source.
The local organization elected
as its officers the following:
Howard Mckinley, president.
Charles Staal, vice-president.
M. A. Pierce, secretary.
