AIR LANDING.

BEFORE CLUB
Judge Ailshie Says Grange
vile Can Easily Be Placed on
Line of Interstate Flights
Griffith Reports on Mining
Convention in Portland; APP
point Standing Committees

If Grangeville will establish an air
plane landing field, this city will
quite likely be made a stopping place
FOR all airplanes flying between Occur
d Alene, Boise and Salt Lake City.
This was the opinion of James e.. All
SHE, former chief justice of the Idaho
supreme court, who addressed the
Grangeville Commercial club, We'd
day noon at the Imperial hotel.
Planes flying from northern Idaho
to the southern part of the state now
make the flight by way of Walla
Walls, Judge Ailshie explained, but
would in all probability come this way,
if facilities for landing and replenish-
ing fuel supplies were provided.
SEES BETTER BUSHES
Speaking of the business situation,
Judge Ailshie said:
"This year will see the turning
point in affairs, and | believe business
will gradually grow better
Matter of a municipal market for
the sale of fern produce direct to con
sumers was brought up by Judge ALL
SHE, and received informal indorse-
ment of club members The subject

E. NJ. Griffith, who attended the In
ternational mining convention, in
Portland, recently, reported briefly on
activities of the convention. Mr.. Crit !
fifth said there exists at the present
time little interest in mining for the
baser metals, because of the big drop |
In prices for these metals, and that all
indications point to a revival in gold |
mining He reported delegates to the F.!
Portland convention expressed desire
to know more of the gold possibilities
in central Idaho.
FOR FISH STATION
The state fish and game department
has given its approval to the estab-
lishment here of receiving station
for trout fry, consigned from state
fish hatcheries to streams in central
Idaho. A station for the fish will
probably be fitted up in the old court
house.
Brisk demand for the folder, "What
Idaho County Offers to the Sports
man, exists, the club members were
told. The supply is exhausted, but ad-
ditional folders are expected to be
printed.
