BANNER EGG WEEK.

Last week was the banner one in
the history of the local station of the
Pacific Cooperative Poultry Produc-
ers, according to George Durant, local
manager. He estimates the receipts
at 73s cases for the week, while the
largest receipts for any preceding
week were 72s cases The increase is
due TO the fact that big producers are
no longer keeping out eggs for hatch
ing and that production is at high
mark. The Caldwell station is only
about 1000 cases behind the Portland
mother concern in monthly egg sales.
April figures show. II the industry
continues to grow. il is confidently
predicted that the Caldwell station will
be handling a larger volume than does
the Portland concern in = short time.

SECRETARY HAS
SUMMER WORK
IN ONE LETTER
Nebraska Man Floors r.
T. Hurtt with Deluge
of Questions Concern
ing Caldwell.

What do you know about Caldwell?
The average resident. thinks r. I.
Hurtt, Commercial Club secretary. ac-
cepts conditions and things as matters
of fact and doesn't really know his
own town. Mr.. Hurtt gathered this
opinion as the result of communica-
ton from A. H. Gunthorp. of Lincoln.
Nebraska, a communication that asked
so many questions. Mr.. Hurtt believes,
he has summers job gathering in
formation to answer it. And Mr..
Hurtt is convinced that when this
QUESTIONABLE is answered. it will not
be necessary to compile any additional
material for Caldwell advertising
booklet.
These are the questions that Mr..
Gunthorp would like to have answered:
Does Caldwell have any electric
shops or an electric or hydroelectric
plant? II not. where is the nearest
one to it1 How is the chance for
employment in different capacities and
what is the wage scale in each Of these
businesses? Can you refer me to some
electric (preferably hydroelectric) firm
so that could communicate with
them regarding employment
"Is the residence district of Cald-
we'll we'll built up or is it somewhat
scattered so that one could have two
or three lots for garden purposes and
have some seclusion in his location1
What is the range of value of residence
property What municipal improve
ments does Caldwell have? What is
the source of its water supply and how
does il treat its water? What is the
nature OF its sewage system and its
disposal? Does it have either gas or
electric connection. are they munich
pally owned and what is the cost to the
consumer? What are the educational
facilities of Caldwell and how much
does it pay its teachers? What are
the principal occupations and indus
tries of Caldwell citizens? Are they
for or against municipal improvements
of various kinds' What are their
amuscments and activities'
What is the climate of your region?
What arc the extremes and average
temperatures? What is the average
rainfall? Are thunder storms numer-
GUS? Is that a windy country or
calm country?"
Mr. HURT comedies that when he
has supplied Mr.. Gunthorp with this
information. Mr. Gunthorp will be
fairly familiar with all facts pertain
ing to Caldwell.

Burglars Blow Up
Safe at Middleton
Crime Committed Early
Sunday Morning;
Loss Is Small

Middleton.-Burglars, apparently oi
the amateur variety. broke into the of.
fee of the Boise Payette Lumber
company here early Monday morning
blasted the door from an old model
safe and escaped with about SS.37 in
currency. The crime is believed to
have been committed about 2:30 am,
several Middleton residents having
heard the blasts.
Nitro-glycerine was evidently used
in blowing the safe. So crude were
the efforts that four blasts were nee
essary to open it. Nothing about the
office was disturbed aside from the
safe. which is completely ruined. Sew
eral checks which were also taken have
been picked up around town where
they were evidently discarded by the
burglars. No arrests have been made
nor are any clues available upon which
to trace the crime to its perpetrators

ROAD is COMPLETED

That the Sunnyside cutoff highway
project treasury is empty and that an
actual net deficit of S2l4 exists is the
gist of an informal report brought to
Caldwell last Friday by A. w. Nc
Neil of Nampa. chairman of the inter-
city committee in charge of this work.
Construction has been completed, Mr..
Mcneil reports, and the road is in
good condition due to recent rains.
Caldwell will be asked to contribute
the deficit and Nampa expects to raise
a small additional fund for dragging
and other maintenance purposes. To-
tai cost of the IA miles of new high
way aggregated about $3.50.

WILL RE-FL0OR
PICKLE BRIDGE
Contract Let Monday to
Cover Timber With
"Hot Stuff"

Pickle Butte bridge is to have an
asphalt floor, laid over the present a
inch timber flooring, according TO a
contract drafted Monday and accepted
by the commissioners of Canyon and
Owyhcc counties. At the same time.
a contract awarding the work TO the
Mcclure Construction company. now
doing paving work in Nampa, was ac-
ccptcd.
Cost of rc-Hooring the bridge will he
slightly less than $4,000. Each OF the
two counties which the bridge con-
meets is to pay half of the cost. Owy-
hec county, having residue OF about
$4,000 in the state highway fund from
that c6unty's allotment of the state
81 10000 bond issue and new state
highways upon which the money may
be legally spent. expects to use a por-
ton OF this fund to finance its share
of <hc work Canyon county, without
state highway funds, must pay from
current county funds.
Decision to re-hoor the bridge was
reached at conference OF Owyhee
and Canyon county commissioners
held here Sunday. While the flooring
is said to be in fair shape, IT was de-
cided wise to cover the planking with
asphalt to eliminate the danger OF hire.
According to facts brought out at the
commissioners conference Monday,
the Pickle Butte bridge has been
threatened with destruction by ire not
less than four times in the past year.
Hay and other inAammablc debris on
the planking has been accidentally ig-
nitcd. presumably from tobacco sourc-
es. and the commissioners arc anxious
to prevent any possibility of destruc-
ton OF the bridge.
The Pickle Butte bridge is the only
one OF the three connecting Owyhee
and Canyon counties that was built
with q timber 6oor.

NEW PRIVILEGE ASSURED

That the Union Pacific railroad Off
cials favor a loan en- transit privilege
for partly filled cars of eggs from
Portland at Caldwell was the gist of
telegram received this week from J. A.
Reeves at Omaha, in response to a
communication from the public affairs
committee Of the Kiwanis club. OF
which DIR. +. M. Cole is chairman.
The change has been recommended
by the railroad and only remains to
be written into the tariffs. This privi-
lege calls for the halting Of cars OF
eggs here to I'LL them to capacity and
continue them on their journey with
out having to pay the local rate from
Portland 10 Caldwell, as is now true.
This change, which seems assured
now. is expected TO prove OF material
benefit to egg producers OF both the
Willamette and Boise valleys.

thinks COSTS
SHOULD BE SET
On NEW BASIS
Maqee Believes Distribu-
ton of Construction
Charges Can Be Made
More Equitable.

That the western reclamation pro-
iects should be made to pay, not on
the total cost of each project, but in
relation to their ability to pay. consid-
erinq costs of construction, nearness to
market. and ease with which settlers
can pay, is the belief of L. ]. Magee,
secretary of the Payette- Water
Users Association. In a formal state
ment issued the latter part of the week,
Mr.. Magee explained the attitude of
the Boise project settlers to the recla-
nation service and the possibility of
another controversy arising with the
service as a result of addresses made
at the Black Canyon dam by A. p.
Davis. director of reclamation, and D..
w. Davis. assistant secretary of The
treasury. Mr.. Magee said in full:
Conditions on the Boise project and
its relations to new projects, particu-
Iarly the Black Canyon. has recently
come into prominence as a result of
public statements by reclamation Off
cials.
at was reported they were coming
to Idaho to study conditions on the
constructed projects with particular
reference to operation and mainfen-
ance and overhead costs. The entire
time while in this part of Idaho was
devoted to new projects and If refer
ence was made at all to the Boise pro-
ject it was to criticize the efforts of
the settlers. They are no more pre-
pared to report to the secretary on
matters to be Investigated on the
Boise project than had they remained
in Washington.
"As a result of the public utter
ances of these officials while here. a
controversy between those who want
water placed on Black Canyon lands
and the Boise project settlers forking
for relief, has been raised. We were
told if the agitation for relief was not
stopped new work would be impos-
sible.
The writer's name has been mem
toned as one opposing the watering
OF the Black Canyon lands and also
that he favors the 40-year bill, as such
statements are misleading, I desire to
state as briefly as l may just what my
position is, which of itself is of no con-
consequence, but in stating my posi-
ton state the position Of an over
whelming majority of settlers on the
Boise project.
