To Towns on Branch

IT plans under consideration by
the board of directors of the Black.
foot chamber of commerce are car
ried out get-acQuainted trip will
be made by the business men Of
Blackfoot to Arco and Mackay, with
stop at Moore, at a date early. in
June. 1t has been suggested that
the trip be made by special train
and as the Elks lodge of Blackfoot
expects to initiate large class of
candidates at Mackay at about the
time of the proposed trip a COM
mittee has been appointed from the
chamber of commerce to confer with
view to adjusting the expenses in
cidental to the trip.
Sentiment expressed at a meeting
of the chamber of commerce board
of directors Wednesday night was
favorable to the plan. The purpose
of the trip as considered by the
chamber would be to get better ac-
quainted with the people and bust
ness interests of the towns visited
and to foster closer trade relations.
While no definite arrangements can
be made until the conference COM
mittee has reported, the question of
taking the Blackfoot band along is
being considered. j. M. and Louis
Felt were named as a committee to
confer with the Elks.
The board also authorized the pur-
chase and installation of register
at the park where all tourists visit
ing Blackfoot this summer will be
asked to register The information

Blackfoot Firefghters

In letter to Fred Simon, chief
of the Blackfoot fire department,
E. L. Lee, special agent of the Hart
ford Fire Insurance company says
he was in BlackfOOt at the time of
the recent blaze at the Eccles hotel
and compliments Chief Simon and
his men for the quick and efficient
manner in which the fire was hand
led. Reference is made to the fact
that insurance rates for each city are
based on past loss ratio and that
efficient fire departments are an in
f1uential factor in reducing fire rates
in general.

Shall Blackfoot Have
The State Seed Show

Bingham county has forged aheat
in the pure seed business until i
seems the logical place to hold the
annual state seed show, and it i!
working on the task of bringing it
1t has been costing from $4,000 te
500 to take care of it at Pocatello
Boise and Jerome, and Blackfoo1
does not feel disposed to put w
that much money.
In days gone by our men have OBJ
tanned desirable things without going
out and buying them outright, and II
may be done again. Twice we car
ried off the district institute by vir-
tue of our fitness to take care of il
land by the act OF making it known
just how we'll Blackfoot could serve
lit.
At this time our men are empha-
sizing the fact that it is not all a
matter of money, getting the seed
show located where it can show and
do its great work for progress, and
that argument is being listened to
and considered Our pure seed men
and the secretary of the chamber of
commerce have been heard and will
be heard some more at the proper
time, and Blackfoot may walk off
with the state seed show in it's vest
pocket by virtue of merits more than
by matching dollars in high bidding.
Does the reader ask, "What good
does state seed show do for the
town."
: Well, not so very much for town,
but it does great educational work
for the agricultural interests of he
territory in all directions from the
town-that is, if the people are made
acquainted with the situation so they
will lay aside all other engagements
and attend the seed show and listen
opportunities afforded by the times.
1t is not matter of dollars and cents
for the merchants of the town; it
is not matter of immediate re-
turns for the farmer of the county.
1t is matter of getting correct I'M
derstanding of what it means to
clean up the fields of old varieties of
plants and get them planted with
pure seed of the kinds that yield
more and better crops. That is the
whole story. II Blackfoot gets the
state seed show. it will get the speak
ers from all over the state and many
Of national standing, and the show
and speakers together will prove
things and point to new agriculture
and show just how to operate it.
II. the seed show comes to Black
loot and the people of the county
ignore it and remain absent from its
they will lose great OPP
}ortunity.

TO TRY ARTISAN WELLS

Artesian water for irrigation in
the semi-arid portions of Idaho,
where there is plenty of first class
farming land and with little or no
water to put on it, would virtually
mean farm, home, and living
for many settlers of the Gem State.
But where flowing wells can be OBJ
tanned and at what depth is Ques-
ton which is very difficult and be-
wildering to the settler who is not
versed in the principles Of geology
and NEUROLOGY and who can make
no systematic survey of the structure
of the rocks beneath the surface.
There were in Idaho in 1910 a
total of 81 flowing wells whit an ag-
gregate discharge of 1920 gallons
per minute, or an average discharge
Of 116 gallons per minute; and in
1920 a total of 142 flowing wells
with an aggregate discharge of 49,
113 gallons per minute or an average
of 1O6 gallons per minute. Recently,
however, new wells with large flows
have been drilled at high enough al
titudes to permit the water to be
used for irrigation of good lands
for which there Is no water supply.
Three recent wells have not only ap-
pealed powerfully to the imagination
of the settlers who lack water sup
ply, and have produced a wave OF
optimistic interest in artesian water
throughout the state, but have also
demonstrated to men of sound judg-
ment that the limits of artesian de-
velopment have not been reached and
that no man knows what these limits
are.
Congressman Addison T. Smith of
Idaho who is ever looking out for
the people whom he represents and
Idaho generally, has taken the in1tia-
tive in the matter of securing govern
ment aid to carry on the work more
by introducing bill in
Congress which If passed will set
aside two hundred thousand acres OF
unreserved, nonmineral, surveyed
public lands in Idaho, and the pro-
ceeds used for exploring for artesian
water for irrigation of arid lands
in Idaho.
