TO BEAUTIFY
GRAND VIEW

c. NJ. Zediker has the right idea. He
as accumulated all the vacant lots in
Grand View addition, but that addi-
ton is not to remain unimprOved as
it has been since the land was plated.
Mr. Zediker will grade and substan-
TALLY macadam Deer Path Boulevard,
the main street through the addition
running north and south, and will
plant every lot to alfalfa in the
spring. In the past, after the first
beauty of spring has passed the
hills upon which Grand View Is
spread out become dull brown, burnt
up expanse, anything but attractive
to the eye of the traveller. With the
hill covered with carpet of green al
falfa that part of town will be 4
comfort to the eye and an advertise
ment of the fertility of the valley. This
land all lies under the irrigation sys-
TEN so that the growth of the plant
is assured. There is a double advant-
age in planting out alfalfa, 1t adds to
the value of the tracts in genral at
tractiVeness, and the alfalfa Will be a
source of revenue to the owner. The
lots are worth while, for each of them
contain half an acre, which gives room
for gardening, the keeping of cow or
the planting out of fruit trees.

where they had been to visit the
stock yards with the aim of buy
ing cattle, as great many head
are now being delivered at the Spo-
kane stock yards from Montana and

has forced many stockmen to throw
their cattle on the market. Yet for all
of this influx of cattle from those Sec

figure, considering the chances of
what the market may be next fall
Notwithstanding the rather abnormal

section being exceptionally fortunate
IN having an excess hay crop, espec-
tally under the irrigation system. Mr..
OHerin did not invest, as he did not
consider the prices attractive. Mr..
Woodland and Mr.. Loudon purchased
car load of calves, which We under
