Crushed Rock for
Michigan Avenue
TRUSTEES ENDEAVOR TO GET
NEW CEMETERY SITE-WILL
PUSH SALE OF BONDS

The placing OF crushed rock on
Michigan avenue. the purchase of a
new cemetery site. and the sale Of
the sidewalk Improvement bonds,
were the subjects of discussion at
the regular monthly meeting of the
board of village trustees held at the
fire hall Monday night AS the vii
lage has money left In the treasury,
1t was decided to place crushed rocI,
from six to eight inches thick on
Michigan Avenue, commencing at
johnson avenue and extending as
far as the Christian church. An
agreement has been reached with
the county commissioners whereby
they will macadamize the street
from the Christian church to Glen
wood. The city's plans contemplate
placing width of from sixteen to
twenty feet of rock on the street
and 1t is estimated 1t will take
about 500 cubic yards for its share.
Crushed rock was placed on the
street leading from Johnson Avenue
to the Post office several weeks ago
at very nominal cost and the vii
lage board believes it has money
enough in the treasury to carry out
the present plans. Plans are being
made to obtain the crusher from the
asylum, which will be moved where
plenty of rock can be secured
Action was taken to negotiate
through senator Mix for the pur-
chase of from five to ten acres Of
state land lying on the west side OF
the river on the first flat below the
bridge for new cemetery site. It
is believed the land can be bought
for from ten to twelve dollars an
acre and the city plans on obtain
ing enough to meet the requirements
of the city for the next fifty years.
General dissatisfaction over the pre-
sent site is the cause of the action.
Trustee Schmid cashier of the
Fidelity State Bank, expressed the
opinion at the meeting that the
bond market was getting conider-
ably better and that there is a pos
sibility that the contemplated side
walk improvement bonds could be
, sold before spring. The sidewalk
work has been delayed on account
OF the high interest rate wanted for
money. The city will endeayor 20
sell the bonds and push the con-
struction of the pavements tV COM
| pletion as soon as possible. The
regular bills and other business of
minor Importance were also acted
upon

Important Road
Meet at Gilbert
ROCHDALE MEETING RESULTS
IN MOVE TO GET NORTH
AND SOUTH HIGHWAY

The semi-annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Orofino Roch-
dale company was held Thursday
afternoon in the Rex Theatre at
one o'clock. Nothing of Importance
came before the meeting except mat
ters concerning the welfare of the
organization. the most important of
which is in regard to the North
and South highway
After last session of the legisla-
ture connecting link between the
North and South highway and the
proposed Lewis and Clark highway.
was designated by the state engineer
from Craigmont to Kamiah through
Nezperce. For financial reasons
there is every indication that this
project will be abandoned and that
new connection may be designated
from Grangeville through Nezperce
to Orofino VIM. J. Hall. commits
sioner Of Public Works, expressed
an opinion some time ago to bust
ness men of Orofino that the con-
Meeting link in all probability would
be designated from Grangeville
through Nezperce to Orofino instead
of to Kamiah.
that there is a move on to build q
new road up the Gilbert hill, that it
is advisable to have the connecting
link between the North anc south
Highway and the Lewis and Clark
highway designated in that terri
tory instead. The citizens of Oro-
fino have already made an effort to
secure the same and will continue
to do SO. Such was the Information
put before the Rochdale meeting by
Mr.. Jewell and it was moved and
seconded and carried that the or
ganization go on recored as favor
ing such plan.
Following this action arrange
ments were made 20 call mass
meeting of the citizens of the Gill
bert country for Saturday night
January Is, at 7 o'clock in the Gil
bert school house when the propo-
sition will be discussed with the
view of indorsing tn, designation OF
the highway from Nezperce to Oro-
fino and requesting the county leg
islators to use every effort to secure
the same. An invitation was ex-
tended to Orofino business men to
be present at the meeting with all
available information concerning the
finances. etc.
1t is urgently requested that all
farmers in the Gilbert section inter
ested In a five per cent grade to
Orofino be in attendance Saturday
night at the meeting. A committee
of Orofino men will be present to
present history Of the North and
South highway to the meeting and
ways and means of doing the most
effective work toward securing It's
designation. 1t was argued at the
Rochdale meeting that such a road,
II built. would be Of untold value to
that organization as we'll as to the
farmers individually. and also to
Orofino. Full particulars will be
discussed at the Saturday night
mass meeting and 1t Is hoped the
ultimate result will be the compile
tion of such road.

BACK TO MORT
GAGE LIFTERS

Since wheat started on It's upward
trend in 1915. the hog industry In
the north west has been gradually
falling off until at the present time
we find ourselves with great
shortage of hogs in many of the
wheat growing sections, and a big
supply of cheap feed.
1t is true that the hog market
and the price of feed in the, past
four years have been at variance
and fluctuated in such way as to
make the buiness Improbable at
times for the man who dabbled In
the hog business or in the feeding
game at the wrong time. But with
the man who has been permanently
in the hog business, keeping his
regular number of brood sows each
year. and turning his hogs off reg
ularly as they were ready for mar
ket. 1t has been profitable bust
ness.
Why has the hog buiness been
profitable when handled in this
way? Because, by being perma-
nently in the business they were
able to get some of the best prices
that have ever been paid for hogs
in this country, which enabled them
to stand the drop when it came In
the past three years I have known
some farmers to make some ex-
ceptionally large profits by feeding
hogs for short periods and fitting
for the market. Again I have known
farmers to make some big losses by
feeding. but the farmer who STAYED
with the business through the high
and low prices, and who is still in
the business, will show more profit
during the past four years than the
grain grower.
the lowly swine did not acquire
the name Of the mortgage litter in
the middle western states. without
having lifted some mortgages. and
If he can do It there he can do 1t
here where conditions are Just as
favorable for him to operate.
Thousands Oh acres OF the finest
land In this country, on which peas
would do we'll, lies idle every sum-
mer when 1t might just as we'll be
growing crop of peas. which from
the time they are foot high
would furnish feed for hogs until
after harvest when they could be
turned into the wheat stubbles. and
by harvesting a few acres OF peas
enough feed could be had to fatter
for market after they have cleaned
the stubble fields. BY having sows
