The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1924-10-16

wag in the crowd called out, Just
hook up with the Idaho booth and
you will have all you need
A bunch of fellows in the lobby
of the Mccoy hotel comparing notes
one evening remarked about the
Idaho booth and the Idaho workers.
Someone remarked about the woman
| in the bunch being a live wire and
added, Lets see where she is
I FROM" whereupon two or three OF
them said, "Oh, don't you know
what town she representa-" They
all laughed and said in chorus, Il
am from Blackfoot, Idaho
The Idahoans were SO proud of
their booth they had a photograph
taken, and it was not very good.
They ordered another exposure and
it was all right. The woman in the
bunch wrote to her home town that
she wished some way could be found
to have all IdahOans see that pic
ture. The home town man wrote
full instructions where to go in Chi
cago, who to take along to join in
the request, which man to put it up
to, to get the picture and short ar
ticle about it, circulated in the week |
~ papers of Idaho and Utah. They |
followed the instructions and re-
ceived a prompt decision to repro
duce it in the readyprints (patent
insides) of the Idaho and Utah pa
pers freeof cost 1t is due to reach
Salt Lake City in mat form this
week and to appear in the papers of
the week ending October 25th.
Eight of the Idaho delegates went
to see the potato distributing system
of E. Kahn in Chicago, and he show
ed them everything and took them
out to lunch, talking Idaho potatoes
from all angles. He handled 400
carloads of them last year, and
bought 400 carloads Of ordinary
spuds to get 600 carloads of bakers
out of them. All he wants is the
bakers, but he buys the others and
sorts them. He spent fifty thousand
dollars advertising the ordinary po-
tatoes to work them off of his hands.
The bakers sold themselves. If he
could buy bakers sorted to suit him
he need not be troubled with all this
stuff Would he come
to Idaho and establish his ware
houses in the potato district? Well,
ne had been thinking of it for three
Or four years. Mr.. Satterfield of
: OCdI6llO,"uO you Know Hill uC
lad been advocating that, and some
ime he was going out there to look
t over. No he would not go out
ust now. Yes he would like to go
light out with this bunch but he was
90 busy. He would go some time.
When Miss Peck arrived in Oma-
Ia she had one hour between trains
nd Mr.. Gignoux took her up to the
General offices of the Union Pacific
o meet some of their men and see :
What she could of their work. He
aid that Mr. Kahn had wired that y
e was going to start tomorrow for
IDAHO. Miss Peck wired him forth
Nth asking him to come to Black '
DOT first, as she wanted to show him d
desirable location for his buying Il
nd sorting operations. She and =,
IT. Kahn got into Pocatello the -
anne day and he came to Blackfoot, y
topped half an hour, bought four "
arloads of potatoes, declared the a.
otatoes were fine and hurried on ID
ithout seeing anything more. The ~ ~
ext day he was shown just what he -
anted at Pocatello and boarded a
ain for Salt Lake City to see if he 81
