HE BUILDS HIS HOUSE BY
THE SIDE OF THE ROAD

Billy Collins, who has the makings
of fine ranch on the Lemhi just
above High Bridge, was in Salmon
Wednesday, as a passenger with l..
T. Ramsey, Lemhi merchant. Mr..
Collins some years ago discovered
that a portion Of the old agency res
ervation had been set aside for a
power site. He thought the place
not at all adapted for power devel-
opment because the G. and p. rail-
road ran directly through it. He
wasn't long in taking up the matter
with the general land office and the
surveyor general at Washington, with
the result that two years ago he
was permitted to make an entry
thereon, thus confirming his valuable
rights to the adjacent reservation,
which comprises 120 acres of mighty
good land. Better still the most of
it is ready to be reclaimed, with the
old Indian ditch available for plac-
ing water on nearly all of the acre
age. Friends of Collins are asking
him how it came that he found such
an opportunity to make a home fol
himself and he smiles as they con-
graduate him on his good fortune
This summer the settler built him.
self a comfortable dwelling which
stands invitingly by the side of the
road.

$4,7OO,7s5.7S Increase in Receipts.


The first of a series of sectional
of managers of the great
chain of J. C. Penney company stores
was held in st. Louis on September
10th and 18th. Over a hundred man.
ayers were in attendance. Other con-
ventions will follow at st. Paul on
September 23rd and oath, Portland on
September 30th and October lst, and
Salt Lake City on October. 7th and
9Th.
Prevailing conditions as they are
generally understood to exist are not
reflected in the financial report of
this nationwide institution, which
shows that for the first eight months
of this year the gross receipts were
4,700, 1856 in excess of the figures
for the corresponding period of last
year,
President Z. c. Sans attributes
this increase largely to the fact that
tie public nowadays is shopping
around and buying merchandise of
quality at the lowest possible price.
The purchasing power of such tre-
mendous organization as the J. c.
Penny company naturally makes pos
sible the buying of selected merchan-
disc of high quality so as to retail il
at low prices.

Right Sort of Distinction.

It is a matter for pride among the
school children of the state of Idaho
that this state has won the inter-
state loving cup, to capture which
the school children in AS states par
ticipated in the Modern Health Cru
sade. This is the first time that the
beautiful silver trophy has come west.
The cup, one of the largest of the
kind, of silver, with ebony base and
gold lined, stands 80 inches high and
must be won three consecutive times
to become the property of any one
state. Iowa won it last year, South
Dakota announces that she has a
niche in the state house ready for it,
but Idaho's school children are al
ready digging in" to keep it another
year. Meanwhile they are forming
'.health habits" which will make for
health and happiness in the future.
The cup will be sent to the Idaho
Anti ti-Tnberculosis association as soon
as engraved. Mrs. Athey, executive
secretary of the association, an
nounces that the cup will be turned
over to the State Superintendent of
Instruction, Miss Ethel +. Redfeld,
who is delighted with Idaho's success:
ARRANGEMENTS will be made to send
the cup over the state so that the
children may see 1t.

Mr.. and Mrs. H. G. King were adj

she made her home with her son, C..

in hand development work on num-

bach in the house of his daughter,
Mrs. Jones, who has gone to Gilmore
to join her husband, Charles b. Jones.
Mr.. Palmer is probably the Oldest ac-

younger days he was enabled to ac-
cumulate a comfortable fortune and
his activities are continued for good

APPOINTED POTATO INSPECTOR
STATE IN SAME CONNECTION.
ON LEAVING SERVICE OF

The public service suffered dis
tinct loss in the resignation of James
Melvyn, as will be sufficiently plain
when it is learned that Immediately
afterward the G. and p. railroad
management sought an dobtained his
services in the same connection; that
of inspecting potatoes for outside
shipment. Superintendent Bichler,
who spent last week in Salmon, per-
sonally made the appointment as
soon as it was ascertained that Mr..
Melvyn's services could be obtained.
The resignation was said to be the
result of some political juggling in
the state agricultural department
that didn't make hit with Mr.. Mel
vyn at all, for being straightforward
himself he wants nothing to do with
double dealing. His work for the
the railroad is to see that potatoes
received for shipment are not frosted
or damaged otherwise before receiv-
ed. This is highly important and re-
sponsible service for the shipper as
we'll as for the railroad company. Mr..
Melvyn entered upon his duties on
Friday last. Before potatoes are ac-
cepted for shipment by the railroad
he must give his o. X.
Is it any wonder that the public
so often gets the worst of it when
as in this inconspicuous instance the
public fails in proper appreciation
A car shortage is imminent, ac-
cording to reports that reach Salmon
Superintendent Bickler of the G. and
p. said on Saturday last that he
could hardly hope to supply all the
refrigerator cars that would be re-
quired as promptly as he would like
to be able but would be on the jot
all the time and get the cars if they
were obtainable. He advised ship
ping in box cars before cold weather
rather than waiting for cars.

lists in the poultry IN some localities
of Lemhi county form of tubercu-
losis, which he il endeavoring 10 Grad
