 McCarty is a good hitter. Last sea son he batted around the .270 mark. He has seen considerable service in the American Association. and should he able to do well in the Southern. The American Association is rated higher than the Southern League, and for this reason McCarty should find it easy sail ing in the Southern.
 The new player is said to be a fast man, both on the bases and in the field. He had a goodiy sum of stolen bags to his credit at the end of last season. Moley stated yesterday that he expects McCarty to make wonderful showing with the Barons during the coming season.

Independent Baseball in
Order After Alfalfa
League Disbands.

Independent baseball will be pro-
vided for Boise Valley baseball bugs
after August 2, it was determined at
a meeting of the Alfalfa league
moguls held at Nampa Thursday
evening. Determination was reach
ed at that meeting to make no eff
tort to extend the regular league
schedule beyond August 2, the date
originally set for the conclusion of
tfe summer pastime. Following that
date. teams will be brought into the
valley for series of games from
other sections of the state to supply
the demand for high grade exhibi-
tions. 1t is planned to keep the loop
teams intact until about September /.
Boise virtually has the pennant
cinched. Early season victories be-
fore the Caldwell and Nampa aggre-
cations had sufficiently strengthened
their hne-ups to occasionally cop a
game from Boise gave the Capital
City aggregation Commanding lead.
It Nampa loses next Sunday to Boise
at Boise, the pennant is definitely
Boises.
Because practically every team in
the league had bolstered its lineup
through the importation of outside
men, 1t was determined at the Thurs
day meeting to open the league to any
men without regard to former resi-
Dental requirements. Anse. Cornell,
manager of the local team, represent
ed Caldwell at the meeting.
Efforts are being made to get a twi-
light game with Boise Wednesday
evening at $50. If the game is ar
ranged, a good crowd is expected to
witness the exhibition since Boise and
Caldwell in every game this year have
put up fast and interesting exhibitions
of baseball.

Good Citizenship
Urged in Address.
to Crowd Friday

Good citizenship as an aditdote for
anarchism, I. w. w. ism and bolshe-
vism was emphasized by. Frank
Chase. representing the United
Americans, in address which he de-
livered at Memorial park to a large
and atentative crowd Friday evening.
DR.. Frederick Vining Fisher, the
leading exponent !. Of the United
Americans creed in Southwestern
Idaho and reputed to be a speaker
OF unusual ability. was i'll and un-
able to attend the meeting. Mr..
Chase was substituted at the last
minute.
Incubation of patriotism and love
of country in every person was the
theme of Mr.. Chase's talk. He urged
that his hearers familiarize them
selves thoroughly with the Ameri-
can constitution and that they take
every possible opportunity to become
acquainted with the fundamental
principle of American government.
He urged that more work be given
in public schools to educate children
to the duties and responsibilities of
citizenship.
No effort will be made until after
the election to perfect the Idaho or
ganization of the United Americans
because the movement must not be
confused with political movements,
according to Mr.. Chase. Immediate
ly after the November general cleo
ton, membership campaign will be
actively launched.
Already, hundreds of the United
American creeds have been placed
in western school ropms. Next win
ter, it is proposed to enlarge the
scope of work through the MAIN
tainance of bureau in Boise with
the object continually in view of en-
couraging Idaho people to take a
more active interest in making and
understanding the laws which gov
ern them.
Mr.. Chase was introduced by T.
A. Walters, with few we'll chosen
remarks. At the conclusion of Mr..
Chase's address. the Rey. Francis
Cook led the assembly in singing
America. Many slides depicting
typical American scenes, most of
them of patriotic significance, were
shown.

lived two miles east of this town,
died at II o'clock Wednesday morn
ing, following a long sickness. Mr..

of l8, and following that time he
returned to Iowa, where he engaged
in farming and stock raising. In
1862 he came overland with a large
party and took up the business Of
freighting from The Dalles to the
Boise Basin.
In the winter of "a he went into
the lower Weiser valley and Mann's
creek to winter his stock. Al un-
usually hard winter destroyed the
major portion of his stock, and after
his business matters had been
straightened out he again started for
Iowa, by way of the Isthmus of
Panama. While crossing this section
of the continent he engaged in farm
ing tor few years, afterwards COM
pleting his trip to Iowa. During his
stay there he was married to Anna
L. Parkherst.
In 1875 he again started overland
for Idaho, bringing his young family,
and located on his present farm. Mr..
Stafford served one term as Canyon
county commissioner, and refused the
second nomination.
He is survived by his wife and six
children, who were with him at the
time of his death. They are L. v. and

Meridian Downed
on Home Lot 9.1O
by Caldwellites

Caldwells thoroughly rejuvenated
baseball team trounced Meridian
soundly Sunday on the latter's back
yard. For just two inning it was q
fair game. But in the third, fourth
and fifth innings, Caldwell batters be.
gan to fall on Johnson's offerings and
some timely hits, coupled with a few
costly errors, contributed nine runs to
the credit of the Caldwell team.
The game was over. Meridian was
dangerous only in one inning. Berg
for probably the only time during the
game, exerted himself and pulled ou,
of the hole.
In the sixth inning, his ump, who
was convinced that Caldwell had the
game sewed up, began calling them
with view of ending the matinee.
Three more innings failed to change
the score and the game ended, 90.
Nelson Features
Aside from Nelson's great one-hand.

runner on third, the game was fea

FRUIT GROWERS
WILL COMPLETE
ORGANIZATION
Outdoor Gathering at
Curtis Park July "a
Called to Consider
Problems Vital to
Canyon Producers.

Organization of the Canyon Coun-
ty Fruit Growers association will be
completed at an outdoor mass meet
ing of interested persons at Curtis
park, near Caldwell, July "a. Mem
bers of the state horticultural associ-
alton will hold special meeting at
the park on the same day. Trans
portation representatives. of the rail-
road which traverse the state will be
present to take up various matters
relative to obtaining cars for fruit
and moving the crop. Thursday eve
ming preliminary steps toward the
organization of the Canyon County
Fruit Growers association were
taken. About 80 representative fruit
producers, both men and women, at
tended the meeting which was held
at the Commercial club rooms.
w. H. Hicks, director of the bu-
reau of plant industry in Idaho. at
tended and presented the ideas un-
derlying the proposed organization.
Without opposition, decision was
reached to organize an association
and committees were appointed to
that end. w. H. Stoelenbaugh of
Middleton acted as temporary chair
man. y
A committee of three consisting
of ]. ]. Allison of Caldwell, A. E.
Gipson of Caldwell and w. H. Stoel-
enbaugh of Middleton, were appoint
ed to draw up necessary plans for
permanent organization. Mr..
Wicks was also appointed to this
committee as an advisory member on
organization. Another committee
was appointed top resent constitution
and by-lawws at the next regular
meeting.
The outstanding purpose 81 form
ing this organization is to have Cam
yon county fall in line with what
will undoubtedly come to be a state
wide movement to organize fruit
growers in each district all of which
will be under state organization
something similar to the fruit grow
ers' associations of Oregon and Cali
fornia. When the organization is
completed Canyon county will be
the first district to organize al
though some have temporary organi-
cations and it is believed that these
will soon fornf permanent associa-
,tions. These districts are Twin Falls,
Lewiston, Post Falls, Coeur d'Alene,
Bonners Ferry, Payette, Washing
ton county and the Blackfoot dis
trict.

HARVEST
Of SPUD CROP
LATE IN JULY.
Potato Problems and
Prospects Aired at
Well Attended Meet
ing in Caldwell Last
Friday.

Harvesting Canyon county pota-
toes. will shortly be under full head
way, according to growers in some
OF the more favored sections. Gem
eeral shipments, however, will not be
made earlier than August /. At a
meeting of the Boise Valley Potato
Growers association, begun Friday
afternoon at the Commercial club
rooms, thegener al opinion prevailed
that this years crop would not be
so heavily as last years from an
acreage standpoint because of the
prevalence of potato diseases in some
fields and some sections
That interest in potato problems
has notably increased as a result of
the approaching harvest was indi-
Gated by the large attendance at the
meeting, no less than $50 growers
answering the cali. Members of the
association convened at the CONNER
cial club rooms but, driven from
there by the extreme heat, went to
the court house lawn to continue the
work.
Organization Essential.
w. H. McCluskey, a potato grow
er from the Riverside district and
now manager of the Caldwell
Equity, emphasized the necessity of
organization and attacked the pres
ent inspection regulations for al
legged inconsistencies as they relate to
theg rover.
{. F. Smith, another widely known
grower from the Deer Flat district,
found on a recent trip throughout
the western states relative to the re-
tail potato trade. He advocated
some steps to the end that Idaho pro-
ducers should get the samep rice for
their potato crop that California.
growers were obtaining for theirs.
On the same subject, w. w. Bates
of Wilder called attention to the fact
that good portion of the California
success might be attributed to the
splendid organization of California
growers and their ability to enforce
certain market price quotations.
Seed Prospects Worry.
Fear was expressed that because
of the somewhat inferior condition
prevailing in Canyon county potato
fields this year, difficulty might be
encountered next spring in obtain
ing sufficient quantities of high class
seed. Problems relating to obtain
ing refrigerator cars were thorough
ly discussed, an optimistic note pre-
vailing relative to shipping matters.
H. A. Lyon of the bureau of mar
kets talked of price conditions and
potato inspection. He said that 90
per cent of the Idaho potatoes last
year graded number one, about per
ment; number two and the remainder
no grade. Mr.. Lyon emphasizes the
value of the grading. w. F. Allie
walt assured the members that 10 of
the best inspectors in the state
would be obtained, making the in
spection service this year at least Is
per cent more efficient than last
year.
