PAYETTE CREAMERY

! There is nothing more pleasing to
/ the Enterprise than to publish the
success of an enterprise in the COM
munity or something to lend en-
couragement to the people. The
Farmers Cooperative Creamery Co.
is usually the source of this kind
of news, and an institution that
brings the enormous amount of
money into the community that the
Payette Creamery does, is deserving
of any amount of publicity.
The compliment paid to Mr.
Wagner, manager of the Payette
Creamery, last week is really some
thing to be proud Of
The Los Angeles Creamery Co, of
Los Angeles, California, who has
handled practically all of the butter
from the Payette Creamery for the
past year, sent a representative Mr.
E. F. Knudsen, from their institu-
ton here to get acquainted with the
plant. Mr. Knudsen is a native of
Denmark, and has spent a life time
in the creamery business, he has
been with the Los Angeles company
for seventeen years, and is the man
who passes on the quality of the
butter received by the company, and
has supervision of three large cream
cries operated by his company After
spending two day at this place TAX
ing note of every detail in the pro-
cess of making butter, the manner of
gathering of cream, and the equip
ment of the Payette Creamery, was
frank in stating he had absolutely no
criticism to make, that the Payette
Creamery was as well equipped and
under the best management of any
creamery he had ever seen. This
compliment coming from a man
who has spent lifetime in the bqsi-.
mes and who is at the head of one
of the largest butter making insti-
tutions in the United States, makes
it worthy of publicity
During the past IL months the
volume of business done by the Pay
cite Creamery each month has
shown marked increase over. the
previous month: Seven cars were
shipped out during the month of
May, total of 1S2,609 pounds of
butter. The amount of butter
churned last Saturday night was
1884 pounds the largest amount in
"a hours since the organization of
the company. The volume of business
now being handled enables the COM
pany to show maximum output at
a minimum cost. At the present time
the total manufacturing cost which
includes the gathering Of cream. de-
probation of equipment and inter-
est in the investment is reduced to
three and onehalf cents per pound.

LIKES PAYETTE BEST

Mr.. and Mrs. Lee Gearhart and
little son, came in from Wasco,
Oregon, the latter part of the week
for a weeks visit, and there is moth
ing sure about their going back at
all. Lee says, if you are dissatisfied
with Payette, Just get out and travel
around awhile, and you will come
back more contented Lee has
tried several places during the past
two years, including the state of
California, and doesn't hesitate in
saying conditions are much better
here than any place he has been.

TO BETTER JAIL CONDITIONS

The matter of safety and proper
care for the men confined in the
county Jail has been subject under
discussion for sometime. The Pay
cite county jail has been condemned
by the state authorities for some
time, but financial conditions have
prevented the construction of a Jail
such as the county should have. In
the present condition the Jail is a
fire trap should fire break out in
the building, and as matter of tenn
porary relief, the county commission
ers met Monday evening with the
city council and obtained permission
to put in an outside door constructed
of steel, which will be done at once.
This will materially better conditions
and at a minimum cost.

A REAL EN's NEST

r. H. Woods has added the last
word to the modern improved poul-
try house. he has invented and will
soon have patterned hens nest
that is bound TO be winner. The
nest consists of box about the size
of a standard apple box with one
side open about two-thirds of the
way down from the top. The bot
tom of the nest is lined with can
vas with a hole in the center large
enough for the egg to pass thru. be
low the nest is a draw that opens
from the back about three inches
deep. lined with excelsior with a rub
Der pad in the center directly under
the hole in the canvas nest The pad
is made of strips Of inner auto tubes
about two inches wide tackled at each
end and cupped up in the center to
form a flexible pad to receive the.
egg. There is sufficient room in
the receiving draw to bold Is or 20
eggs. Mr. Woods has had num-
Der of these nests in use in his poultry
house and finds them a perfect sue
cess. The principal object of the
nest is to keep the eggs perfectly
clean, however we imagine Mr. Woods
had in mind fooiing the hen,
she would get off the nest
and finding no egg, would get back
on and lay another.
Mr.. Woods had number of these
nests at the poultry special Tuesday
which were highly commended by
the poultry specialist. who took them
along on the remainder Of the trip.

KU KLUX KHAN HAVE
CROSS BURNING


Last Saturday evening at about
$50 P. NJ. the residents of Payette
who happened to be on Main street
were again treated to the spectacle
of cross burning by the Ku Klux
Klan. At the identical moment
when three crosses blazed forth
around the business section of
the city. the white robed figures of
several Klansmen appeared upon the
principal streets and touched off
what appeared at first to be torches
of red fire After burning for mo-
ment these exploded and were eyi-
IDENTIFY set to call the attention of the
people to the fiery crosses.
The utmost secrecy seeming to at
tend these periodical visits of the
Klan, and the evident reluctance CT
those suspected of membership to
inform us of the significance
of the cross burning makes it
difficult to venture the reasons there
fore, but we arc informed from some
source that these occasions mark
the progress of the attainment of
some objective The cross burning
Saturday night was reported TO be
in the celebration of the recent sign
lag Of sh9 Immtxrstton Restaction
Bill by the President. which bilI the
Klan was said to support vigorous

IA TROUT

Payette was well represented Oh

day of the open season, perhaps bet
ter than it was with fish on their

by party from Midvale, returned
with ia brook trout ranging from
Z to II inches in length. They
didn't follow the crowd to Weiser

LAUNDRY FORCE
GO on PICNIC


The Payette Steam Laundry and
the Weiser Laundry, joined in
picnic on Mann's Greek last Sunday
for the entire force of both places.
In order to accommodate the force at
the Payette Laundry with some of
the families included it required the
two trucks and three cars There
were 23 in all and 19 from Weiser,
and from all reports there was no
lack of a good time. ten gallon
can of ice cream and grub enough to
last a week. Fishing was out of
the women preferred wading in all
good fishing holes The principal
feature of the day was Fisher of the
Weiser Launry floundering over the
rocks belly VI in the creek after the
women had bodily thrown him in.
1t is quite likely this is the begin
ming of an annual affair.

foolishness and ghastliness and wan
ton waste of war let US not forget
that to disarm ourself is unsafe until
the world does likewise Mr.. Her
bert Davis delivered a reading con-
tanning Lincoln's Gettysburg Address
and it was enjoyed by everybody
present. There were several hundred
gathered under the trees and loung-
ing on the cool grass who enjoyed
every moment of the program.
At P. NJ. the fine, big 100 foot
flag pole of the American Legion was
dedicated and flag II feet by 20
feet was hoisted to its lofty height
for the first time amid the strains of
the National Anthem by the Payette
County Band and accompanied by the
cheers and salutes of a thousand
civilian and uniformed spectators.
The dedication address was delivered
by Hon. Calvin Keller and we must
say that the few words he uttered
stirred our sluggish breasts to their
darkest depths. He told us things we
never knew, he reminded us of things
we had forgotten and he urged US to
do things we have all too often neg
lected. 1t was picture long to be
remembered. Civil War veterans,
Spanish War veterans. World War,
veterans, members of the State
Militia all in formation and at at.
tention around the gigantic flag pole
The mammoth flag straining at her
ropes eager to display her purity,
liberty, strength and justice to the
skies, and the snow-white hair of
the speaker framed in a background
of the freshest green of the springs
first leaves, it all made 4 lump come
in ones throat which fingered long.
May we all remember. ponder upon
and profit by the word of that won
derful speaker there.
Now that it is all over let US see
what has been accomplished. The
American Legion, as we stad before,
had charge of it all and to say that
it was well done is unfair. 1t was
done with a character of super-excel-
lence and super-reverance seldom
seen and, may we say, never before
seen by this community. The Legion
has been pounding at us to be more /
patriotic and more respectful to The !
Did Stars and Stripes. They told |
us to take our hats off when she /
goes by Did you notice any i'm
AS the beautiful flags !
moved down the street the hats came
off in wave. The women and chill !
iren all saluted properly and enjoyed /
/. Let us not make ii necessary for
he Legion to again remind us OF our
iuty to the flag. The Legion gives
he old soldiers the distinction, the
honor and respect that is due them.
It is good for these old veterans and (
hey are prospering under it. 1t
will make their lives longer. Bury
hem in flowers while they are alive,
boys. They can enjoy them now.
When they are dead they cannot.
Our enthusiasm over this occasion
makes it almost impossible to bring
his article to a close. But we must
iay that the American Legion is
stirring this old town to its depths
md is doing us all inestimable good.
Nay we say that it is wonderful or
,anization. And yet we are informed

'ligibles belong. There are thou

RETURN FROM COAST TRIP

Henry Hanson and wife and Rev.
Victor E. Newman, returned Friday
evening from a two weeks trip to
Portland and other coast points. The
principal object of their trip was to

all the rest who go away from Pay
ette and return saying, this is
about the most prosperous looking
place in the Northwest.

Bernard }. Lancaster.

Master Bernard j. Lancaster. son OF
Ex-senator and Mrs. S. Spearman
Lancaster. OF Rock Point, died at
Providence hospital Thursday OF last
week from typhoid fever. aged Is years.
The deceased was a bright boy, full OF
energy for one of his years and the
pride OF his parents, whose life he made
happy by his bright and cheerful dis.
position.
He was most popular at school with
both teachers and pupils. His popu-
larity with his school mates at Glasva
High School, where he was second
year student, was shown by the beau
tiful flowers placed by them upon his
bier.
IT'S sad indeed, to sec one OF his
brightness and energy called TO the
great peyond so young, when life held
out so much to him, but when the Di-
vine summons comes, all must re-
spound, both young and old.
His remains were brought to the
home of his parents Friday and his
funeral took place Saturday. Requiem
Mass was celebrated at Holy Ghost
Catholic Churh, Issue, and his remains
we're inferred in the family lot in the
church cemetery.
a He leaves besides his parents, three
sisters and three brothers.
His pallbearers we're Masters L. A.
Price, N. Lomax, Thomas Barbour,
Robert Lee Price, Frank Cameron and

Our deepest sympathy goes out to
his bereaved parents and family.

Know Your Soil.

All soils have their peculiarities. A
good farmer does not treat different
soils the same, any more than he
would give his horse the same ham
ding. Muck soils have quite different
fertilizer requirements from the upland
soils. The soil that has been cropped
forty or fifty years must have different
treatment than the virgin soil that has
just come under the pillow.
II is almost impossible for the aver
age farmer to know all of the princi-
pies underlying the fertility of the
soil. To tell the truth, there is much
about the soil that scientists do not
know.
However, there is in almost every
section of the country one or more soil
experiment fields on which various fer
tilizer treatments are treated for differ
emit crops. The county agricultural
agent or the State experiment station
can give information on the location
of these fields and what results are be-
ing obtained To lime or not to lime,
what fertilizers give the most profit
able increases, and on what crops in
the rotation fertilizer can be used to
best advantage are some of the ques-
lions that are answered by the soil ex-
pertinent fields. The results of these
tests help ons to know the soil and to
make it produce at its maximum.
