Vegetable Plan Is
Proving Popular
Farmers Interested j n
Production of In
tensive Crops.

The movement inaugurated by the
Idaho Producers Union for divcrsi-
fed vegetable crops is making good
progress. In response to a widespread
interest in the growing of celery
caulilowcr. and onions. and in rccog-
milton of the fact that these crops pre-
sent very promising possibilities a
series of meetings is being held IN
southern Idaho and eastern Oregon.
r. G Risscr, who has been secured
to discuss the growing of these crops
is attending ten meetings this week
and will probably continue this work
for the remainder of the month. In
addition to consideration Of the grow
ing OF these crops, temperature re' ords
and climatic conditions affecting tic
productios of lettuce are also beine
discussed. Many interesting points
are being brought out and growers arc
having an opportunity to clear up
questions upon which they desire
more definite information.
Mr.. Risser will address a meeting
OF farmers at the Caldwell Commercial
club rooms this evening.

6 2. Shellabarger Killed
While on Duty at Rail
road Crossing; Fellow
Worker Suspected.
Especial Dispatch).

Namoa-S. B. Shellabarger, Nampa
,;orcer was shot and instantly killed
Wednesday evening about o:45, while
holding down his job as crossing ten
der on Tenth Avenue.
Suspicion for the deed seems to have
cen,ercd on Kenneth McClenzhan. an
other crossing tender. who was dis
charged by the railroad company
about two weeks ago. When officers
questioned him Wednesday he assert
ed he had TO weapons with which the
crime might lave been committed.
Upon investigation Of his shanty on
the north side. an old fashioned ~
calibre long-barrelled Colts revolver
was found with one cartridge evidently
but recently discharged.
While a warrant formally charging
him with the murder has not been
sworn out. and County Attorney s. d.
Hyslop is said to be noncommital,
Sheriff o. Y. Mason intimated that
such 4 step would probably be taken.
Shellabarger's body was found abou,
1880 Wednesday evening in front OF
his shanty on the Tenth street cross
in. lie had been shot through the left
breast just above the heart Death
was evidently almost instantaneous.
Shcllabarger had evidently been lean
ing against the front of his shelter
when the shot was fred. The door
to his shanty was found open.
Oregon Short Line detectives have
been working on the case. According
10 information received from them
II is believed the crime was committed
about o:45 Wednesday evening. One
person has been interviewed by rail-
road operatives who said that he heard
the shot, looked at his watch and re-
members it was about GAS o'clock.
Identity Of this person has been with
held.
Shellabargcr has been a resident OF
Nampa about 2S years. For MANY
years he was engaged in the undertake
ing business and has been employed IN
recent years as a crossing tender at
this station. McClcnahan who is
thought to have been implicated in the
shooting, held a similar position about
three blocks cast Of the one where
Shellabargcr was employed. Officials
incline 10 the belief that if McClena-
han was implicated in the crime, II
was due TO belief that Shellabarger
was responsible for McClenahan los
ING his position.
Shellabarger is survived by his wife
and four sons. None of the latter are
residents Of Nampa at the present
time.
