CHEESE FACTORIES
CONSOLIDATE

No surer evidence can be found
that the cheese industry is perma-
nent in Southern Idaho than is
found in the fact that the consolida-
ton of the different small units OF
the industry into larger and more
efficient organizations has started
according to Prof. r. H. Paultney Of
the Agricultural Department of the
Idaho Technical Institute.
The first large consolidation Of
cheese factories has just been form
ed under the name OF the H. F.
Labbs Cheese Company, which will
open offices and warehouses in Po-
catello. The company was formed
by the seven factories owned and
operated by H. F. Labbs, which are
located west from American Falls,
and five factories of c. E. Voight in
Southeastern Idaho. This COM
pany will ship 10000 pounds of
cheese month to the California
market, and will no ooubt be able
to make better financial arrange
ments for the farmers by paying for
the milk twice each month, instead
of monthly as before.
Owing to the recent phenominal
OF the dairy industry in
Idaho, the Idaho Tech.
will give a special short course of
As weeks in dairying beginning jan
uary 7th. Anyone interested should

ATTEMPT TO
BREAK OPEN SAFE

An attempt to rob the safe at the
Assessors Office was made some time
between Wednesday night and Fri
day morning OF last week. probably
the evening before Thanksgiving.
The combination on the safe had
been tampered with, an attempt
made to pry the combination plate
from the door, but the party or
parties gave it up as a bad job or
were frightened away. Entrance to
the Assessors room was gained by
prying the door jam away from the
casing admitting knife or some flat
instrument between the door and the
casing pushing back the catch.
1t is quite likely the parties were
amateurs at the work, also thought
at this time of the year money col
lected on taxes might be in the
Assessors safe.

ALBERT WEIGHERT LEAVES
FOR THE COAST

Albert Weighert, who came to this
country from Holland years ago
and for the past two years has lived
in Payette left Monday for Port
land where he will spend a few
weeks and then go to California and
probably locate at some pont on the
coast, this young Hollander is a
natural forest, and during the two
years spent n Payette installed the
spirit of beautifying the homes
among many of the Payette people.
While Payette will not be lacking for
a place to purchase plants bulbs or
shrubbery as Mrs. c. E. Genoway IS
greatly improving her greenhouse,
and D. H. Snowberger is still IN
the business, Albert will be missed
by many OF the flower loving people
OF Payette.

FIRST NATIONAL

The First National Bank of Pay
cite, in sending out statements To
their depositors on December Isl.
enclosed letter explaining the work
of the board of directors, and action
by its stockholders in keeping the
institution in sound and safe con-
dition. This is the information
that patrons of any bank are entitled
to, but seldom get. 1t is fortunate
for this community tnat stockholders
of the First National feel the moral
responsibility and are financially
able to stand back of its depositors.
A bank is the one fundamental insti-
sutton in any community, and when
the facts are made clear as set forth
in their letter of December 1st, they
certainly merit the undivided sup

but few rods ahead, jumped the
fence into the road, walked slowly
across to the other side and grace
fully leaped the fence into the field
on the other side. and made his way
to the hills TO the west. He will pro-
badly winter in that vicinity if not

To our depositors:


It is very probable that you have
heard or been informed during the
past two or three months, that TINS
bank has had difficulties which has
necessitated strengthening the in
stituticn. Probably you have heard
a great many OF the stories, for some
of them have come back to US, and
they are very malicious, We feel.
These things are of course told by
people working against the interest
of the bank, which is the center or
hub of business of the community,
and is so in any town large enough
to support a bank. 1t is possible that
the people or at least some of them,
and we hope all, are little aware OF
the effect of the 81 heard so and
so say" without knowing the FACTS
AND TRUTH has on the confidence
of the community, and it is abso-
luteIy unwarranted. Did you ever
think what harm this might cause?
If not, do so now.
1t is very true and no doubt even
in your own case, that all business
and farming-yes all lines Of
trade-have beeen hard hit the past
two or three years some more than
others of course, and we have had
our share. This we have not de-
MED, and are glad to speak the
truth as has been determined, and
it is with that one idea in view that
We send this information to you.
Last February, and even earlier we
set to work ~ rectify the conditions
and eliminate the assets in this
which were not worth one hundred
cents on the dollar and have worked
consistently since that time. We
found that we had slow and doubtful
paper which did not represent good |
money, and we called our stock |
holders together, and it was with a I
good deal of satisfaction that they
agreed unanimously that the bank
stock should be assessed for the full
value of each share and take out
tnis doubtful paper. This was alb
solutely voluntary upon their part
and shows the loyalty and willing
ness to stand behind the bank. In
the course of time as soon as 1t
could be legally accomplished the as
sessment was paid and on October
31st, $S0,000.00 cash was put into
the bank, and the questionable as
sets were taken out, and we feel that
the community and you depositor3
have a good sound place to do your
banking business. Our directors
and stockholders are strong finan
cially and are tending to business,
which they should do. Virtually we
have started a new bank and nothing
will be left undone TO protect your
interests we have shown this, and
we want TO thank you especially for
your loyalty in staying with the in
stitution while this difficulty was
being slaughtered out. We invite
you to come into the bank and ask
for such information along this or
other lines; you are entitled to it,
and shall receive it.
Yours truly,
FIRST NATIONAL BANK,
By Chesley Barton,
Cashier.

PAYETTE COUPLE WED

A very pretty home wedding took
place when Dennis L. Dean, and
Miss Anna May Hutchinson were
united in marriage at high noon,
Wednesday, December 5th at the
home of the brides mother Mrs. Betsy
Hutchinson of this city, the ring
ceremony being pronounced by
Judge Calvin Keller.
The bride carried a bouquet OF
rose buds, and was beautifully at
lace. Immediately after the cere-
mony which was in the presence of
just the immediate family, a sumptu-
GUS turkey dinner was served with
Hugh Hutchinson, brother of the
bride, at the head of the table, who
served the guests In a very graceful
manner.
Too much can not be said of the
bride as a charming young lady, she
has lived all her life in this COM
munity and is unquestionably one of
Payette's best. The groom better
known by his many friends as
Nilsson" might also be called a pro-
duct of Payette, having made this
his home the greater part of the time
for the past 20 years, where he has
been quite mixer among the young
men of this place, always looking up
on the bright side of life and we
venture to say will be good life,
mate for the bride he has chosen.
Mr.. and Mrs Dean left TINT even
ing for Boise, where they will spend
a few days of their honeymoon, after
which they will be at home at
Glenns Ferry, where Mr. Dean has a
good position with the Short Line
Railroad Co.
The Enterprise joins with many
other Payette friends in extending
congratulations.
