PAYETTE COUNTY FOR
QUALITY AND QUANTITY

We sometimes wonder if the peo-
pie of this country ever fully realize
the wonderful fruit and other pro-
ducts that are grown right here in
the Payette Valley. We see them
so often the magnificance is SEEM
ingly overlooked, and only the peo-
pie who are newcomers in the coun-
try look at the productiyeness of our
soil and climate in its true light. Mr..
N. j. Garman brought to this office
three peaches that if placed on dis
play in the middle west or eastern
section of the United States would
cause more comment and excitement
that a $1,000 span of horses of a
$1,000 automobile. We can pro-
duce apples prunes, fruits and yege-
tables, of all kinds, grain hay dairy
and beef cattle, sheep, hogs and
poultry, equal to the quality of these
three peaches, and yet we cry,

8 SERIOUSLY HURT
WHEN Autos HIT

Loring Robertson SON of G. H.
Robertson, of this city is in Boise
Hospital in a serious condition as a
result of an auto accident Tuesday
evening. Mr.. Robertson who lives
in Boise, accompanies by two other
young men who also live In Boise
were on their. way toward Meridian
at about eleven O'Clock Tuesday
evening driving a Chevrolet and
when within a mile OF that place,
met a party of Boite people, two
men and two women IN large Nash
who according to the report given
out, held to the left hand side of the
road until the two cars were nearly
together, then turned suddenly to
the right just in tiAe to be struck
ouartering on the left side by the
Chevrolet. 1t is quite evident that
both cars were going at high rate
OF speed as both werea total wreck,
Mr.. Robertson and ho two compan-
ions were II seriously injured, one
young man completely scalped. the
other received blow in the face
throwing one eye from the socket
and scalping his eyebrow and eyelid
the cut extending to. his ear. Mr..
Robertson sustained . severe scalp
wound, injured chest p bad cut on
one leg and was rendered uncon-
scious and was not found Until one
hour after the accident, by parties
driving by after the others had been
picked up and taken to Boise. The
occupants of the Nash al escaped
with minor injuries not withstanding
the fact both ladies we're thrown
from the car over the fence into the
field.
On receiving word of the accident
Mr.. C. H. Robertson impediately
drove to Boise returning Wednesday
evening and reports the seriousness
of his sonss-a>.AaAts661et unde-
termined but the attezdfng physf-,
clan believes he will recover.
Another auto accident Of less
serious nature occurred in Payette
Wednesday evening when DR.. Nc
Donald and William Blackaby of On
tario came together on the pavement
at the Ensign corner in the south
east part of town about nine o'clock
in the evening quite badly damaging

QUICK TRIP TO WALLA WALLA

Mr.. and Mrs. John T. Jefferis
drove to Walla Walla Friday, accom-
panied by their daughter Ethel, who
goes to attend college at that place
and will make her home with her
grandparents.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jefferis returned to
Payette Tuesday evening. From
Johns own statement of the speed
made in going down we would judge
he escaped being pinched for ex-
ceeding the limit by out driving the
traffic cops. They left Payette at
A. M. and stuck their feet under
the table at Walla Walla for dinner
at five minutes past twelve distance
of 234 miles. Its a good thing he
was outside of Fred Christensen
jurisdiction.

ANOTHER JAM AT
BAND CONCERT

The streets of Payette are good
and wide, but Saturday evening
there was insufficient room to ac-
dommodate the large crowd that
gathered to hear the band concert
given by the Payette County Band.
1t was a regular jam, cars filled the
street to the center in every direction
until the traffic was completely
shut off, to disburse the jam Of au-
tomobiles at the conclusion without
an accident required considerable
care by the traffic cops.
The hand is showing a marked i'm
provement in the class of music
given, their efforts and service
rendered is greatly appreciated by
the people who In meager way are
giving them their support. We are
proud of the boys and feel that the
few dollars spent in their support is
well invested.
The special number by Earl Keller
Saturday evening, vocal solo,
simply captivated the large audi
ence.

WORK At OIL
WELL CONTINUES

The work at the oil well is pro-
crossing without any interference
and hopes of obtaining results is
still held out by Mr.. Stevens head
driller on the job. The drill is now
working little over 1000 feet below
the surface. At a depth of about
1900 feet considerable gas was en-
countered The formation at the
present depth is that usually en-
countered when oil or gas is found
according to a statement made by
Mr.. Stevens.
The equipment for completing the
well at any depth is complete and the
work will be continued until it is
fully determined whether oil or gas
will be found.

MANY BIRDS KILLED
ON OPENING DAY

Sunday was the first day of the
open season for shooting ducks.
Every old Zulu down to the latest
improved model was previously lin
bered up and on the firing line at
the peak of day. The bombardment
was fierce from the first volley a
half hour before sunrise, but gradu-
ally deminished as the nimrods came
dragging in, some with their limit
and others without a feather. The
Enterprise man was awake in time to
join the first brigade, but turned
over for another snooze deciding to
take chances in the generosity of his
friends. We had duck for dinner
the next day.

of Gooding College, was in Pay
cite visitor Sunday as he made trip
to Boise and other Pocatello-
Huntington points. According to
his report there will be substantial
increase in the attendance at Gooding
College this year, due largely to the
fact that the fine new gymnasium at
the school has been placed under the
supervision of the athletic director to
be used as a mems dormitory. Stu
dents are also given an opportunity
to work for half their board and
room, which enables a number of
others to attend. Mr.. Tenney plans
