GOOD REPORTS FROM
UPPER DEAD OK FLAT


j. R. Langley was a caller at the
Enterprise office Saturday and re-
newed his obligations for SO doses of
the Enterprise and gave us some en-
couraging reports as to farm condl-
tions in his neighborhood. Mr..
Langley owns and is living on
quarter section, four miles northwest
of Payette on upper Dead Ok Flat in
the dry farmed section, and reports
the fall grain that was planted in
proper season in the best of condition
and with a reasonable amount OF
moisture next season a good crop may
be expected. NJ. and Mrs. Langley
have a small dairy herd, some poul-
try and other livestock and find no
difficulty in producing sufficient
crops on their dry farm to supply
their wants. His version or proper
farming was given by the illustra-
ton, "The man that sits on the stool
and waits for the cows to come to
be milked won't get much milk. A
further statement made by Mr.
Langley was, that rye hay cut at the
proper time was equal or better than
alfalfa for dairy cows.

SATURDAY A BUSY DAY

The Treaurers office was a busy
place last Saturday it being the last
day in which to pay the first half of
the 1928 taxes. 1t was a case of line
up and wait your turn. The little
treasurer and her assistants passed
them through mighty rapidly but
they kept coming until late hour in
the afternoon.
The Assessors office was also a
scene of jam receiving the checks
and passing out receipts for auto Ii,
censes.
The Post Office clerks were an
other bunch that had but little time
to set back and wait for business.
From the number of packages that
were received at the Post office Sat-
urday and for ten days previous it
would seem that times are not so
very hard after all,

LARGE DIVIDEND
TO IT'S PATRONS

1t is really surprising to know that
the annual dividend paid to the 1000
patrons of the Farmers Cooperative
Creamery Co., amounts to the mag
nificent sum of s17,53239. This is
a patrons dividend of cents per
pound on butterfat, which is made
possible by the volume of business
done during the year. OF this amount
the patrons of the Emmett district
received s4S0.70, from the Weiser
district s4,3555O, and at the Pay
ette district s12,6s6.1s. a bonus of
SO was also paid to the employees

FISH SAVED BY
GAME DEPT

Boise, Idaho.-The state Game
Department has salyaged from the ir-
rigation canals and reservoir of the
Deer Flat irrigation system more
than one million six hundred thou
sand perch and bass and replanted
them in sloughs, lakes and streams
all over southern Idaho, according
to Game Warden Dick Thomas in his
report recently to Governor Charles
c. Moore. Several hundred thousand
of these fish have been planted in
the Payette Lakes in an effort to re-
store that section as fishing re-
sort.
Southeastern Idaho has been well
taken care of in this connection since
40 cans of perch have been planted
in the Port Neuf river and several
other cans in its tributaries. Mont
pelier, Malad, Twin Falls, Gooding,
Rupert and other sections have also
received several thousand fish. The
vicinities of Kuna, Payette, Nampa
and Midvale have received several
scores of cans of these fish which
would otherwise have been lost in the
irrigation bitches this fall when they
were shut off from the main canals.

Agriculture is the Head of the

to observe what followed. Every

MAIL SERVICE HEAVY

Just one look in at the Post Office
during the last ten days will give
some little idea the amount of the
work imposed upon the boys at that
place. 1t was our privilege to step
in behind the door, Sunday morning
and view the vast amount of letters
and packages received Saturday even
ing. A reasonable estimate would
be at least one thousand packages of
various sizes. Is it any wonder that
occasionally a mistake is made, (al-
though we have heard of none). 1t
requires many hours of over time by
the entire force to get this enormous
amount of mail worked over in time
to give the patrons prompt service
Postmaster White was still on the
job at 2 O'clock Sunday morning
He also states the amount of mail
matter sent out from the Payette of
flee this year will in his judgment
exceed that of previous years.

5TR ANNUAL
AMERICAN LEGION
CONVENTION

The 5th semi-annual convention
Of the Third District Council, of the
American Legion of Idaho, has passed
into history. Yes, they came in
throngs and punches from all parts
Of Southwestern Idaho and Eastern
Oregon. The "buddies' from On
tario, Vale and Nyssa, Oregon, were
invited as the guests of the conven-
ton altho' those posts are not with
in this district.
There were around two hundred
who enjoyed the entire affair. The
banquet was probably the largest
ever served in this city. 1t consisted
OF many good things to eat and was
served by the excellent Woman's
Auxiliary to our local Post, as only
they know how TO serve.
The banquet was enlivened with
beautiful violin solo by Miss Mary
Christian, accompanied at the piano
by Miss Helen Kilbourne; also Sc
lection and an encore by Prof. Adams,
of our local High School, which met
with hearty applause. Mrs. Bernard
Eastman then entertained the boys
again with her beautiful rendition
of a Christmas solo. The orchestra
offered numerous selections thruout
the banquet, including several of the
songs the boys sang in the camps
and trenches, which gave the bud
dies" another opportunity to exer-
else their lusty lungs.
The speakers consisted principally
of State Commander, Paul Davis, of
Boise, National Vice-Commander,
Lester Albert, also of Boise, State
Commander Kiddle of Oregon, Col.
Maddox of the Veterans Hospital at
Boise, end Brig. Cen Patch of Pay
cite. The usual district business
session was followed by torch light
parade down Main street to the dane

ex-soldiers and civilians mingled in
the enjoyment of a well staged mill
tary ball until late hour. State
officers reported that this was the
largest gathering of ex-soldiers of the
World War ever congregated in the
State.
