WILL
STAGE DRIVE

The Prospective Poultry Market
ing Association began to take form
when the leading poultrymen of the
county met iTf the FTuitland school
house Monday evening and decided
10 stage a real campaign in the sign
ing of contracts. That enthusiasm
Is running high vas evidenced when
all those present At the meeting
signed a contract. There were three
thousand hens signed making total
Of five thousand TO date.
Prem More, of the University of
Idaho Extension Division, and w. T.
Mccall. County Agent of Canyon
County. were in attendance and they
pointed out what a marketing Assn.
would mean to this county. Archy
Larsen. largest pOultTyman in this
section gave his reasons for signing
the contra Ct After the various
speakers had finished H. T. Lewis
took charge OF the meeting and all
those present were appointed on a
standing committee to assist in a
countrywide drive. The date was
not definitely set but it will be an
nOunced in the near future.
The formation of poultry mar
keting Assn in this section will be
-he first big proposition that the
Farm Bureau has put across in line
Of organization work and this is only
2 stepping stone to future success.
I has been figured out that a mar
keting Assn. will mean thousands
OF dollars profit 10 the farmers and
of this section.

SAFE BLOWERS
GET IN THEIR WORK

The safe at the Payette Stea m
Laundry was blown up at an early
hour Sunday morning. $500 in
cash taken and $4,000 in war saw
ing stamps. together with $500 in
checks. also several other papers
such as deeds. stock certificates and
memorandums, that were OF no
value except TO the owners.
II is quite evident that nitro-qly-
eerine was used in blowing open the
door which was entirely ruined, the
knob had been knocked off with
heavy hammer evidently with the
intention of manipulating the tum-
ler without the use of explosives. A
quantity OF unlaundried clothing and
bundles of laundried clothing bas-
kets and various other articles had
been piled about the safe to deaden
the sound The tools used by the
burglars were left lying on the floor
near the safe. which was later prov
en- to be tools stolen from the Idaho
Oil & Gas Co, after breaking open
their tool box al the derrick. IL is
believed the work was done about
four o'clock in the morning as neigh
bors living in that part OF town
heard an explosion at that time. II
is also evident that the parties were
familiar with the habits of the night
watch who usually goes home at
four O'Clock. Some of the missing
papers were found along the Short
Line track about a mile north of
here which would indicate the par
ties walked out of town.
An attempt was also made to enter
the OrioIe Cafe some time early
Sunday morning, Mr.. Terwilliger.
the proprietor, who was sleeping in
the back room was awakened by
some one on a ladder near the back
window, got up to investigate but
was heard by the intruder who in
his hurry to get down, fell into a
hen coop and made his getaway.
Sheriff Jefferis is quietly working
on the case, however there is but
little evidence or a clue that might
lead TO the arrest of the guilty par
ties

CHAUTAUoUA GIVES
GOOD PROGRAM

The ChautauQua week has come
and gone, and the only feature in
connection with the entire affair
that was not up to standard and en-
tireIy satisfactory, was the lack of
the proper material for advertising
and the cooperation of the people
which resulted in a light attendance.
The program was good, fully up to
the standard of previous years not
withstanding the fact the manage
ment were aware of the fact THAI
they were not to be given an oppor-
tunity to return another year. Mr.
Burlinn. the Superintendent, was Z,
fine gentleman, at no time in his re-
marks regarding their defeat did he
utter one word other than speaking
well OF the Ellison-White Chautau-
qua who are TO appear here next
season. We heartily indorse his re-
marks in saying they were not given
a fair chance by not giving them ar
opportunity to present their pro
gram to the people before they had
signed up for another year.
The Tadmean Chautauqua. while
not so well known throughout the
western states, are no small con-
Germ. They are good. clean people
and gave us a good, clean, high
classed weeks entertainment, buc
now that we have signed up for the
Ellison-White people for another
year, let's get behind the movement
and make the Chautauqua a real
success.

BOYS ARRESTED FOR
SHOOTING BIRDS

George Toxin, United States Game
Warden, for Southern Idaho and
Eastern Oregon, was in Payette the
latter part of the week leaving here
Monday evening for Baker, Oregon
The duty of the department repre-
sented by NJ Toxin is to protect all
migratory birds and to regulate in
terstate game shipments. While
here Mr.. Toxin made quite an extern
sive investigation as to the killing
of song birds and other birds that
are under the protection of the U. s.
Game Department, and placed under
arrest Sunday afternoon, three
young lads from Payette who were
taken before Judge Keller, L. S.
Commissioner. charged with shoot
ing Heron. that inhabit the cotton
wood grove just south of town. The
boys plead guilty and were bound
over TO appear before the Federal
court at Boise, where they will re-
ceiye their sentence.
There are too many boys, and
some that are not boys who have
no regard for shooting the innocent
birds that do no harm.

RETURNS FROM THE EAST.

Mr.. Baker, Manager of the Dry
Goods Department, of the Payette
Cooperative Co., returned this
week from the East where he has
spent three weeks on a purchasing
trip. Mr.. Baker states styles in
women's apparels which are being
shown by the designers are the most
attractive seen in many wears Spe-
cial smartness is shown in the suits,
dresses, skirts and coats for Fall.
Practically all of them are cut on
new and becomming lines with
wide variety of shades and trim
mings. Mr.. Baker purchased
large stock of Fall apparels during
his trip and it is expected TO arrive
within the comming three weeks.
Tricotines, Suedines. Elna Corona
Duvetyn are the materials in the new
suits.
In the coats Polo, Velours, BOLIVIA.
Broadcloths and big variety of ma
terials are being shown.
In dresses, Serges, Tricotines. Sa-
tins and Canton Crepes, predOmi-
nate. Skirts will be chiefly in pleat-
ed sport stripes and plaids in Pru-
nella and worsted weayes. Colors
for fall will mainly be Reindeer.
Taupe Brown, Beaver and Navy
Blue.
Prices in Women's Appearels this
fall will be one-half less than they
were at this time last year.
Better materials are being used
this year in popular styles of gar
ments and the workmanship is OF
superior quality than that main
tanned during the last few years.
Almost all manufacturers are now
operating on new and re-adjusted
basis. For this reason we can ex-
pect these same lower prices to be
maintained from now on.

NEW CURWOOD FILM
SHOWN HERE
go isobel: cr. The Trails End, Has
Been C"iled That Authors
Best.

One OF the interesting events for
lovers of the hotOplay of the season
will occur at the Emma Theatre.
Wednesday and Thursday. Aug. 10
and l1th, where James Oliver Cur
woods latest story of the North
land, "Isobel, or The Trailer's End
will open for a run of days. This
lilm drama is product of the direc-
toriai talent of Edwin Carewe. and
is presented with cast which fea-
lures House Peters and charming
Jane Novak.
OF all the Curwood stories. it has
been acknowledged that none has
the breadth and human appeal of mis-
famous novel. "IsObel." from which
this interesting epic OF q Northland
romance was adapted. Those who
have read this volume will find that
the phOtoplay version adheres close
Y to the lines of action and charac-
ta" portrayal as laid down by the
author. Edwin Carewe. in fact. has
been said to have given photoplay
fans their first real glimpse of Cur
wood: in other words. he has re-
tanned the full power of the authors
weeping character portrayals and
mis- tense and exciting climaxes.
When presented for the first time
at the Hotel. Astor Grand Ball Room
in New York recently, reviewers de-
clared it was the greatest story of
the Northwest ever filmed. It
comes TO this city after repeating its
successful New York premiere in
other large cities of the country.

THE LITTLE WOODEN CROSSE,

The little wooden crosses
Upon a rocky hill,
There where the autumn leaves drift
down.
And all is strangely still,
The old. old church that br0Ois DER
them.
Has seen no fairer sight
In all the years than these who gave
Their youth. and life. and light.
To sleep beneath the wooden cross !:
Yet sweet their rest must be.
Whe made themselves a sacrifice
That all men might be free.
The pain shall be to those who wait
cross ocean mist and foam.
Who'll miss their face among the
ranks
When soldier boys come home.
But this shall be their recompense.
To lift the cross they bear;
These were the gift a nation gave.
Ar offering and a prayer.
And long as mortal tongues shall live
Until the world grows old,
New beauty and new glory.
Their memory shall enfold.

FAMILY GOES OVER BLUFF

!fr. Bob Brown in company with
mis- wife. mother and an aunt, re-
turned Monday evening from a short
trip 10 the mountains going b. way
of Council and New Meadows and re-
turning by way of Cascade and En-
NETT. Bob don't seem inclined to
say much about their trip, bu: when
asked how he came by few little
scratches about his face, just said,
the brush along the creek was pretty
bad. The facts are, Bob took along
a double hammock to sleep in aud
the only place he could find, two
trees the proper distance apart to
hang il. was at the brink of the
bluff about d hundred feet above the
creek and during the night Mrs.
Brown got little chilly and spooned
up TO Bob to get warm when down
came the hammock and the whole
darn Brown family Mrs. Brown
managed to grab a root and anchor
near the top of the bluff, but Bob
being q good subject for rolling con-
tinued on down over the rocks and
brush landing broad-side in two
feet OF water. Bob says he didng
mind the trip down. but the cold
water bath was rather sudden after
being aroused from a sound sleep.

MR.. AND MRS FRANK
XIMERMAN RETURN

Mr.. and Mrs Frank Zimmerman
returned Friday evening from an
overland trip TO Iowa, returning by
way of Yellowstone Park where
they spent several days. They re-
port a fine trip and enjoyed it all,
but the pleasure and satisfaction of
being home was about the best part
OF the trip. Mr.. Zimmerman says
the conditions back in the middle
west are vastly different to what
they were 4 few years ago. Before
the boom in prices practically every
farm was clear in incumbrance, but
during the advance in price, many
farms changed hands at higher
prices leayeing heavy incumbrance
which still remain, and in some
cases the Indebtedness is really more
than the actual value of the land
