Editor Sells
Printing House

Byrd Trego has sold the building
and ground in which the original
Macakay Telegraph and the Mackay
Miner were printed, at Mackay, Ida.
He bought tie property, including
some printing equipment and the
newspaper business, in 1908, paying
$1,000 of borrowed money, and agree
ing to pay the balance on the install
ment plan covering a period of two
years.
The printing business did not
prove to be very profitable, and it
took him nine years and six months
to clear up the debt. In the mean
time the machinery was worn out
or moved away, and after carrying
the investment for seventeen years,
during which he entertained some
hopes of the town developing into q
Butte or an Anaconda, he sold the
real estate for $2250, which was very
little more than it cost, and was a
few thousand dollars less than the
Mackay enthusiasts expected such
property to be worth in the palmy
days that did not arrive.

RUPEES Sell Farm
To A. B. Lyman

Ancil Rupe and family developed
a aainiew sss,fir il r,ia hberw1een Sprr6gfe1d snd md
Sterling in the past couple of years,
built houseon it and now they have
sold 1t to A. B. Lyman the man who
originated the Grim alfalfa seed in
Minnesota.
Mr.. Lyman has visited this Sec
tion on former occasions and has
been here for some days not only
visiting with alfalfa seed men, but
booking for place where he could
get into the business of pure seed
production himself, operating farm
by proxy.
The Rupe farm contained 100
acres, and the purchase price was
100000, or 1925 an acre.
The Rupees have another farm of
1876 acres left, with a large house
which they built themselves, and it
is leased for the present. They came
here from Oklahoma in prairie
schooner, about seventeen years ago,
landing in BlackfOot with scarcely
anything but their appetites. They
took up land under the new canal
that was building into the American
Falls tract, carved out two fortunes,
made good name, and are planning
for the whole family to hop into their
automobiles this spring and spend
the summer on a pleasure trip back
to Oklahoma over the same route by
which they came to this country,
busted, in 1904.

Warning Is Issued
TO Canal Companies

The prevailing custom OF having
the water shut out OF the canals for
several weeks in the early spring for
the purpose of making repairs results
in delay in irrigation. It also pre-
vents the filling of the sub-strata to
form basis for more rapid irriga-
ton when the water is turned into
the fields.
1t is earnestly recommended that
water be conserved as much as pos
sible during the early spring by al
lowing it to flow in the canals and
on lands where it will not hamper
farming operations, to get as much Of
it stored IN the land as can be done
without damage, and to the end that
when irrigation begins, the full
capacity of the canals can be centered
on the fields. Those who are willing
to water meadows, pasture lands and
orchards early, will be fOrtifying
against the shortage that will come
with the hot weather.
Appeal to Canal Officers
Officials Of canal companies are
urged to take such action as they can
to hold the water in the upper valley
if only for the purpose of delaying it
so that the return flow intc. the river
may reach those in-rfle lower valley
in the irrigation season and thereby
increasing their crop yield. What
ever helps them also helps us in some
degree.

Promote Pro-
ject in Colorado

A big project is now being pro-
noted in Colorado to drive tunnels
thru the mountains in three places
to make passage for rail, auto and
team traffic between the eastern and
western parts of the state, and to
make an outlet for the products fof
the valley where production has been
hampered by lack Of transportation
to the markets.
Two of the tunnels are six miles
long and another about two miles,
and the estimated cost of the work is
a million dollars a mile, fourteen mil
lion dollars for the three jobs, and
they propose to submit to the people
of Colorado at the next election a
bonding proposition to do the tunnel
ing with money obtained by the sale
of state bonds, and let the rentals or
tolls obtained from the traffic pay off
the interest and bonds. Leading
men Of the state are behind the
problem and we may hear more of
the enterprise.

Barry Dibble Pays
Visit To Blackfoot

Barry Dibble, project manager for
the Minidoka pumping plant, was in
town Monday afternoon between
trains, and reported that the pre-
cipitation in the mountains about the
headwaters of Snake river is slightly
above the average this winter. The
amount is greater now tina the total
precipitation of all last year from
September till September
The amount of water in Jackson
Lake now Is somewhat less than it
was at this time last year, due to the
fact that water was carried over in
1918 to apply on the 1919 storage,
and there was none to carry over
from September, 1919. The volume
of water flowing into the lake during
the present winter is greater than
last winter, yet the water line is be-
low that a year ago.
The amount that will be stored
from now on will be greater than the
amount that was stored in the cor
responding months of last year, and
the amount of precipitation from
ON cannot be less than last year be-
cause it was almost nothing from
March till Septembers 1919. He car
ried with him a graph (map) show
ing the average line of precipitation,
the precipitation of 1919, and that Of
the recent year, and the 1919 line
stood practically on level from the
first of March till the last week in
August, when it rose slightly, show
ing rainfall.
The water flowing over the Miner
dam generates electric power of oper-
ate the pumps at Burley lifting water
for over $4,000 acres of land for ir-
rigation. The amount tot electrical
energy consumed in the work is 10,-
600 horse pwer, and is the largest
pumping plant in the world The
federal government advanced the
money to build the project, and the
settlers are paying it back with in
terest, making one of the best
records in the history of irrigation.
The use of the water on the project
has created a new empire teeming
with wealth.

Council Will Call Bond
Election to Provide
Funds for Build
ing Plant
WILL BE ADEQUATE
Plans Provide for
Future Growth
of City

City county, Tuesday night, de-
cided in favor of municipal water
system and preliminary steps towards
acquiring one will be taken immedi-
ately.
A motion introduced by Council
man Clark and seconded by Council
man Tavey provided for the calling
of special bond election to secure
bonds to the amount of 100000.
The estimated cost of the municipal
system Is $259,641.72.
It was not stated in the motion
whether the present water system
would be purchased or the city op-
crate in competition.
From preliminary discussion, how
ever, 1t appeared the disposition OF
council to come to an agreement with
the present water company If pos
sible.
The engineers estimate on the pro-
posed system and submitted by Cot
tin & Wilson Of Idaho Falls several
weeks ago, gives in complete detail
all costs, revenue and plans for the
system. The first ten years, accord
ing to the estimate, the revenue de-
rived from the system will be $41,O63
per year with an expense of $38,590.
The cost of water to consumers will
average rs cents per 1000 gallons
for the first ten years and 20 cents
per 1000 gallons for the second ten
years.
The plan comprises the sinking of
two deep wells and the installation
of two pumps each with sufficient
capacity to handle the present needs
of the city. In case of fire 1t is
planned that both pumps be used
which will give the city supply of
gency. The electricity will provide
the. motive power for the pumps but
in case of a lack of a power gaso-
line engine will be in readiness to
keep the pumps in motion. The plan
provides for the pumping of water
directly into the mains which makes
a standpipe necessary. The distri-
buting system will be so constructed
that in case the Mt. Putnam project
is completed it can be connected di-
rectly with the mains.
SOuNCll lZcu LIiC VI
a motorcycle at Tuesday nights
meeting and the city police will
henceforth be equipped to handle all

The matter of hitching grounds
was laid over until more detailed
report could be obtained.
1t was decided to call for bids on
the cement work planned by the city
on various streets and for the con-
structi0n of several siphons.
The West Park Ditch company had
representatives at the meeting who
stated that the city didn't own any
stock in their company and watered
the city park free without paying any
assessments. The matter Is being
looked into.
