CANVAS COUNTY GETS
LESS TRAIN SERVICE

Camas prairie is to have train
service but three times a week from
August to September 8. Mixed
trains will be run. The present serv-
ice is six trains week. This is the
ruling of the public utilities commits
sion. The Oregon Short Line urged
that the six trains week were too
costly; that the trains were put lit
tie patronized; that in good weather
the farmers haul their produce to
Gooding by auto trucks. 1t is held
by the commission that the patron
age given the Hill City branch does
not justify mort than three mixed
trains a week. Just what the citi-
zens of Camas county will do now re-
mains to be seen.-Hailey Miner.

GRAIN HARVESTING
TO BEGIN NEXT WEEK

The wheat harvest will soon be on.
The hay harvest is stnl in the center
of the stage. But haying is being
rushed to make way for the earlier
wheat harvest. The extreme heat
for Camas Prairie has ripened the
grain earlier than usual and already
the combines have been put into
shapeready for the active campaign.
Some fields will be cut next week
and from hten until snow comes
there will be the merry hum of num-
erous combines and threshers. The
grain is Of excellent quality and the

GAME HOGGIsM AND sAGEHENs

Watch the hunting grounds each
season and you will find plenty evil
dence of "game hoggism"-if there
Is such a word. Take notice of some
camp ground-you will there find
evidence of birds partly eaten-that
is, the legs and wings cut from the
bird and the balance of the bird left
to rot on the ground. If the birds
are to be eaten in camp why is it
necessary for the would-be sports
man to kill more than is necessary
for the meal? Take just what you
need for your evening or morning
meal-don't waste. The next day
when you go out on the hunt keep
within the limit-be true sports
men. Try and put yourself in the
other fellows place. We all like to
hunt-save a few birds for the next
man--and above all save few for
the future by keeping within the
limit allowed Try it and see if you
do not have a better feeling in your
heart when you come home after the
hunt Ruthless slaughtering OF sage
hens is not true craftsmanship.

KEEP ON A-MOvING

The demand for parking places is
growing and the long lanes of life
are becoming Uttered with parkers.
Time was when the corner grocery
was the community parking place
Today it is anywhere, everywhere.
Progressive business institutions and
successful men do not tolerate the
habit one minute. To them real life
is movement. The man who stands
still not only lays himself open to
temptation, but he slowly shrivels
and his courage fails. One can al
most read the sign park here" on
his face. But why park, anyway?
II your goal is worth attainment
keep moving toward it every moment
OF the day, keeping constantly in
mind the fact that while the other
fellow is parking the gates are
open, the fences down, the field wide
open for deyelopment-and its your
business to do the job.

THIEVES BUSY
STEALING LAMBS

Several farmers have reported the
los sof lambs by thieves lately. F.
M. Andrews living on the old Green
street place three miles east of Ru-
pert is one of the most recent losers,
six or seven lambs being taken from
his barn where some forty head are
kept at night according to the re-
port. About the only clue left by
the thieves were the tracks of
truck that wa sbacked up to the
building to load the sheep.
A short time ago two lambs were
stolen from the place of Bruno Sack
that were picketed within fifty feet
of the house, the thieves taking pic
ket roptes, and Minidoka Coun-

TWO DOLLAR WHEAT
PROMISE FOR IDAHO


Wheat, hard red milling quality
started in around $500 bushel say:
the American Falls Press and the
growers are rejoicing in consequence
Discussing the situation at that
point, one of the large wheat ship
ping points of the entire west, the
Press says:
The annual wheat harvest is in
full swing in some sections OF the
country and by August first win be
general. The yields from early vol
unteer range from 10 to 25 bushels
to the acre and when the real har-
vest begins on the heavy fall grain
they will run as high as 45 and so,
according to grain men and farmers
in the country.
The acreage in crops this year is
approximately the same as last but
the yields will be more than twice as
heavy due to the ideal growing sea-
SON. Many farmers who had 500 or
500 sacks of wheat last year will
have 5000 or better this year. Others
who had heavier yields, say 20 bush
els to the acre, will have twice as
much wheat as last.
Harvest in the country lying to
the west of American Falls began /
last week both for headers and com
bines. Harvest is also under way be-
low Medley, in the Heglar country
and in isolated spots at Little Greek.
will begin in the Rock
land valley between the first and Z
tenth of August, though it may be
still later when the combines get to
he foothill ranches. The latest sec
ions are, of course, the Arbon valley
md Roy sections.
The first new wheat received at
he Oneida elevator came from John
Mayer of Little creek who started
last week. 1t tested Gil
'ushel and grades number one dark
lard winter wheat. 1t is yielding 25
bushels to the acre and was grown

KEEP UP YOUR BALANCE

No one cares to ride upon the shoulders of his
neighbor. And, yet, that is exactly what the man
who carries very small balance in his checking ac-
count is doing, because the cost Of checking account
service is borne by those who this service and if
your balance is too small to make profit for the
bank, the cost of the service you receive must be
borne ythe one whose account is always large.
Those who keep records of the cost of handling
checking accounts find that any account which does
not average $4,000 will actually represent loss to
the bank through the cost of teller's tme bookeep
ing, stationery and the like
Keep your account with us and keep up your
balance if possible.

Mail order houses call their cata-
logues silent statesmen. Nearly every
form of advertising is silent sales
manship. because much of it does not
come in and say Il sold this to Mrs
Smith and that to Mr.. Brown" Adj
vertising does talk, however, when
Mrs. Smith and Mr.. Brown walk in
and make a purchase. Nearly every
customer is a silent testimonial of
advertising. Those who complain
because they can not trace direct re-
suits from advertising should be
calm until the final audit of books is
made at the close of the fiscal year.
1t is then that the value of advertis-
ing talks to the business man, and as
the old saying goes. figures don't lie.

BLACKBURN CATCHES
BIG STURGEON

One of the largest surgeons ever
to have been reported in this sec

Monday by G. H. Blackburn, who is
running the Morton ranch on Snake
River. The fish measured nine feet
and two inches and weighed in the
neighborhood of four hundred and
fifty pounds. Mr.. Blackburn was
busily engaged the greater part
of two hours landing the large fish,
and finally had to kill him in the
water before he could get him on
the shore.
