New Bleachers For
Arnistice Day Game
Seat Sale Begins; Choice
Seats Will Go
First.

BOISE-A crew of IA men is busy
erecting the new bleachers at Cody
park, 265 feet in length, to augment
the seating capacity of the field for
the Armistice Day football game be-
tween the Universities of Idaho and
Utah Fritz Hummel, a prominent
architect, is supervising the work for
the mutual athletic association which
controls the park. There will be
enough seats for the crowd, it is esti-
mated, but none to spare, and only
limited standing room, and those who
want to see the game from the best
vantage are reserving tickets by mail
A flat price of $l.50 has been placed
on all admissions, the only edge" be-
ing that the early orders will get the
choicer locations.

Caldwell Will Not
Close November IL
Business Concerns to Re-
main Open Armistice
Day.

Caldwell business houses will not be
closed on Armistice day, Saturday,
November II. This decision was
reached at the first regular weekly
luncheon of the Caldwell Merchants
association held Tuesday. That Arm
istice day comes this year on Satur-
day and the fact that Boise places of
business did not close last year, de-
spite the football game there, were
reasons given for the decision reached
by the Caldwell association.
One local dry goods store refused
to close for today's football game be-
tween Pacific University and the Col
Iege of Idaho. AS result the asso-
citation committee, after obtaining
pledges from almost every establish
ment in Caldwell to close from 3 un-
til o'clock this afternoon, announced
that all places of business would con-
tinue open as usual.
Reports of the committees OH con-
stitution and membership were pre-
sented and adopted. This baby among
Caldwell organizations had an attend
ance Of % local business men at its
first meeting and promises to take q
virile part of the community public

WARM WEATHER
HURTS SLETTUCE
Crop Best With Snappy
Days; Frosts In
East.

Three or four days of rather warm
weather this week hasn't helped Boise
Valley head lettuce according to w.
IT. Mccall, Canyon county farm bur-
eau agent. On the other hand the
crop is suffering setback. Shipments
from this territory have been only
nominal awaiting the time when the
latter crop, maturing under cooler
weather conditions into well solidifed
heads, will be ready for market.
Frosts in the eastern head lettuce
districts have cut into crop estimates
there recently. AS result prices for
Idaho lettuce have been somewhat
stimulated. Shipping poor quality
stuff, however, has broken the market
somewhat on the Idaho crop. Pro-
ducers, anxious to get their stuit on
the market with as small loss as pos
sible. have been inclined to selected
loose heads, and have not taken suffi-
cient care in cutting, it is said. This
cut down the quality OF the Idaho
product and it has reacted upon the
price.
That celery may, in another year Oh
two, take its place with head lettuce
as one of the premier crops OF thu
Boise Valley is forecasted as the re
suit OF the shipment of two cars b,
R N. Berry, producer near the Col
legc of Idaho. His cars, upon arriVa
in Chicago, were inspected by tedera
man who informed commission mel
there of the arrival and quality OF tn
two cars. Immediately orders wer
sent to Caldwell for six more cars
the same stuff. Prices are high an
it is estimated that at present quota
tions local growers will net aoou
, $1,000 per acre for their celery.

HIGH HOPES c D
To NEW HEIGHT
Football Expects to Win
From Weiser Satur-
day Here.

Alden Garrity. 10 pounds Of plung-
ing full back, latest acquisition OF the
Caldwell high school football team
has added so per cent to the chances
Coach Berry's team has of Winning
Saturday against Weiser high in a
game to be played on Cleaver field
Recognized as one of the two critical
games of the season, this contest
prices TO attract one Of the largest
crowds in the history of Caldwell
high school football games.
Given until this week an outside
chance to win over the powerful
Weiser eleven, high school stock has
taken a decided boost as the result OF
Garrity's arrival last week end. Cap
tain Bardsley, who has been filling a
hole in the backfield, has given way
, to Garrity and is back at center where
he is at home. The entire squad has
felt the stimulus of Garrity's presence
and now has all the football fight and
ability that usually characterize Cald-
we'll high teams
"We expect to win," Coach Berry
said Thursday And the high school
student body reflects this optimism.
This morning a high school rally that
will shake the .rafters of the high
school building is scheduled. Every
football player will decorate the stage
and several OF them will make brief
remarks.
Berry's optimism prevades the entire
high school, The football squad ha.
shaken off the iegarthy that marked
its early season work and is out tc
win Weiser has a capable team thi
year, football followers seeing in tina
club one of the three championship
contenders for this district.
With Teach, Marshall, E. Lowell
Garrity and Van Wasmer, the loca
high school team is believed to hav'
the most competent backfield that ha'
represented the school in several seas
ons. Speed and driving power ar
combined to make the Caldwell Of
fense a formidable one.

P PAC|F|C TEAM
C0NF|DEN n 7 Of
WINNING { AM T
Stage Set for First Col
lege Gridiron Battle this
Afternoon on Cleaver
Field.

Pacific University's football team. 20
strong, will arrive in Caldwell this
morning. That the visitors expect to
walk all over Cornell's College of
Idaho eleven this afternoon on Cleavcr
field may be evidenced from the fact
that the team will have but three
hours rest following the long trip be-
fore donning football togs and pre-
pairing for the game with the college
team. Pacific bases its hope for clean
ing up the college eleven on the fact
that Coach Franks team held the
bulky o. A. c. eleven to 80 score
two weeks ago and last week easily
walked off with victory over Mount
Angel college.
Paci6c's style of play is unknown
here. Not only will the team which
faces the college this afternoon have
the opportunity of surprise attack
but even the lineup of the visitors is
absent. Nothing is known of the
weight or playing strength of any OF
the men whom Coach Frank will send
against the college eleven this after
noon.
Cornell's team will be at its best
this afternoon. Only Hudspeth, whose
injured ankle hurt last week in scrim-
mage, has failed to recover, will be
missing from the first string lineup
when the team takes the field. Either
"Porky" Welsh or Charles Robinson
will take this scrappy guards place
Otherwise the team is ready anc
rarin' to go. Every man is in tip
top condition. B. Lowell has beer
busy this week with punting and ha'
been getting his kicks away in goo
shape for goodly distances. Kicking
passing, signal practice and line plung
ing work on the bucking machine hav
been on Coach Cornell's calendar thi
week, rounding his club into fina
shape for the game.
Bleachers to accommodate almost 6O
football fans were completed on th
college field Wednesday afternoon
Parking space on the south side o
the field only will be reserved TO
automobile parties at the game.
B. F. Sheehan is to referee the game
:, c. w. Douglas will act as umpire an
Fritz Hummell will act as head lines

To Build Highway
Before Snowfall.
Sunnyside Cutoff Will be
Open for Use
Soon.

A passable highway from Noun
tain Home west, parellelng the rail-
roal through the Sunnyside tract will
be a realization before winter, in the
opinion of the Caldwell portion OF
committee cooperating with Nampa
and Kuna members on plans to build
this road.
AT meeting of the committee held
in Nampa Monday evening, Lee R.
Cooke, Nampa engineer. was author.
ICED to arrange for right-of-way for
the seven miles which are now closed
to traffic. Immediately upon obtain
ing this right-of-way, it is planned to
construct a passable road through this
district That done, the road will be
open from Mountain Home to Nampa,
route shorter by about nine miles
than the Boise-Mountain Home route
from Caldwell or Nampa.
About $500 will be required to
build this seven miles, according 10
estimates made by Mr.. Cooke. Com
struction is not at all difficult. While
all of this work is in Ada county,
equipment from the Nampa highway
district and Canyon county will prob
ably be used in construction. Almost
all of the construction work can be
done by machine.
Next Tuesday evening, another
meeting of the committee will be held
this time at Parma where an effort
will be made to enlist the aid OF the
Parma Commercial club in pushing
this project.

Burglars Break
Into Melba Store.
Destroy Safe Lock and
Steal $2O1.OO In
Cash.

Following closely on the heels of
the robbery of the post office ait
wilder Sunday night, burglars Mon
Gay night broke into and robbed the
cooperative store at Melba They
obtained cash to the value of about
Szol and wrecked fine, new safe.
Almost identical methods were used
at Melba to those employed at Wilder
the night preceding. A sledge ham
mer was used in smashing the knob
on the safe and the lock was driven
IN so that the safe door could easily
be opened. Entrance to the building
was gained thru the backway, many
footprints in the dust revealing the
course of the burglars. Evidently an
attempt was made to cut off com
munication by telephone with the out
side but, by mistake, the men cut the
reclamation office wire.
Losses are fully covered by insur-
ance Sheriff Howard Kinney was or
the ground early Tuesday morning
for thorough investigation. Officer.
are working on the supposition that
this robbery and the one at Wilder

No arrests have been made as yet
there being but few clues upon which

No goods were stolen from the

CANYON COUNTY
COSTS ARE GUT
Court House Operated at
Big Saving Over Pre-
ceeding Bieniurm.

Distinct economies have been effected
in the operation of the county court
house during 81 months now past OF
the present administration, according
to figures compiled Monday and COM
parisons made with the proceeding
l9l9-20 biennium.
In 1919 and 1920, the court house
cost Canyon county taxpayers, under
a Democratic administration, total
of $l0,99385. In the first Fl months
of the present Republican administra-
ton, the cost has been held down to
8,2o0l3. On a monthly basis of op-
Grafton, the cost has been cut from
$458.07 to $393.33, net reduction OF
$64.74 per month. This means net
saving of $lss3.76 for the two year
period ending January l, 1928.
Satisfactory as these figures are in
reflecting the efficiency of the present
county administration, it is confident
| " predicted that totals at the end oi
the year will increase this saving tc
approximately 100000 as the result
of the last quarters operations. Thi'
additional saving will be shown be
cause the entire coal supply for thi
winter has already been purchased
and paid for and swells to consider
able amount, the cost for this yea
thus far.
Items involved in costs of operating
the court house include fuel, light
ianitor service and other incidenta
expenses.
. Among things that has been accom-
plished to the credit of the count
officers is the fact that the court hous
is no longer a popular playground fo
Sunday parties. Keys for court hou:
doors have been made and the cou
house kept locked when not in publ
business use. Until those keys we
! made, the court house was always o.
r en- nights, Sundays and at all 9th
times.

BUSINESS F Or
SHERIFF JUMPS
I D HIGH MARK
Office Expense Increases
Is Per Cent But Work
Is IS Per Cent More;
Earnings Grow.

While the expense of operating the
sheriff's office during 1921 and the
first three-quarters of 1922 shows an
increase of Is per cent over an iden-
teal proceeding Democratic admins
tration, the work handled by the office,
measured in volume of business, shows
a net increase of 65 per cent In ad-
dition, the volume of criminal work
has also greatly increased, accounting
in no small measure for the slight net
increase in operating expenses of this
office. To handle this added volume
of business, the number of employees
has not been increased
In 1919, the total volume of business
handled by the sheriffs office aggre-
gated $15,759.84 This total is made
up of fees, fines and routine office in
come. In 1920 this total has declined
to $14,49275 but in 1922, the first year
under Howard Kinney, this total had
jumped to $23,492.75. The first nine
months of 1922 indicate that even this
staggering increase will be exceeded
since on October /, the total volume
had reached $22,72l25, promising that
this will be the biggest year, from the
standpoint of business transacted, in
the history of Canyon county's sheriff
office.
| Reflective of the work carried on in
this office is the amount of fees quar-,
terly earned and turned over, as net
proceeds, to the county treasurer. Ir
1919, 2,036.35 was added to the genera
county fund from this source. In TIL,
Following year, the last in which tht
late George Froman served as sheriff
the amount slightly increased, the ne
earnings for that year being $2,6l5.lS
The year 1920 showed slight de
cline in the net earnings of the offic'
from fees, $l,81092 having been turnet
over to the county treasurer during tn
year. But this year, all previous re
cords are certain to be shattered, tn
net earnings from this source for TIL
three-quarters ending October /, hav
ling reached $4,088.27, the total for TIL
first 21 months of the biennium beinl
I$5,89o19, a sharp increase from tn
l$4,651.53 earned by the office during
the entire "a months of the proceed
ing biennium.
Despite this greatly increased vol
ume of business and the big increas
in net earnings of the office, expense
have been kept at practically the l92
, level. In 1920, the total actual eS
, pense of operating the office aggregat
ed $S,42243 while in the followin
: year it reached total of $9,550.7.
, About $4,000 of this increased CO:
$ went for supplies, the office being pra'
, tically denuded of various items at tn
e beginning Of Sheriff Kinney's term

LIVING OFF The FARM

In an advertisement in this issue Of
the Telegraph, Mr.. C. N. Trimble,
manager of the W. ]. johnson Co
asks that farmers in the Washington
trade territory report surplus farm
commodities they may have on hand.
This information is desired, he says,
so that his company may help con-
sumo and place this surplus, thereby
cooperating with the farmers in keep
ing home money at homIa, instead of
ordering from a distance and send
ing money out of the country.
A striking chanbe has taken place
in this section of the country the past
few years in the relation of the mer-
chant and the farmer. Not many
years ago the farmer who did not
plant a large per cent of his farm
to cotton was not considered a good
risk by the supply merchant. The
merchant has gotten further and fur
ther away from this ida in recent
years, however, and we predict that
the farmer who does not grow an
abundance Of corn, peas, potatoes
and othN crops of a like nature this
year, and is not independent of the
banks and supply merchants, viii be
out of luck when he asks for favors
in order to meet expenses during the
growing season next year.
Notice it when and where you will
and you'll always find that the farm
er who grows everything possible in
the way of food and feedstuffs on his
farm is always more independent than
his neighbor who stakes all on
cotton and depends on the proceeds
to buy many things which he could
easily have produced at home. Our
awakening on this proposition has
been slow and painful, but now that
we have learned our lesson well let
us profit therefrom by growing more
food and feedstuffs on Hampstead
County farms this year than ever be-
fore.
