At noon they were ordered by the sheriff to depart, after the officer had recovered from the Gypsies $10 in cash they stole from Mrs. Julia Simpkins, proprietor of a rooming house in Grangeville. The sheriff’s attention was first called to the band of nomads in a message Sunday from the sheriff of Nez Perce county, at Lewiston, asking the cooperation of Sheriff Eller in apprehending the Gypsies, one of whom had stolen $21 in cash from a man in Lewiston. The caravan was heading toward Grangeville, Sheriff Eller was advised. Sunday evening, the Gynsies were located in camp on Stock creek, between Cottonwood and Ferdinand. Sheriff Wm. Eller and Deputy Robinson, in com- pany with Deputy Sheriff Dag- gett of Lewiston, who journeyed by train to Ferdinand, appeared at the camp and demanded re- turn of the money. The Gyp- sies at first denied having stolen the $21 from the man in Lewis- ton, but finally admitted that one of thetribe, a woman, named Rosie, had stolen the money. The officers agreed if the Gypsies re- turned the $21, and in addition paid expenses incurred by the y Morning | officers in apprehending the tribe, no formal cémplaint would be made. The Gypsies settled by paying $52, which included $12 automobile hire for the Idaho county sheriff and costs of the trip from Lewiston by the deputy from Nez Perce county. —Free Press. LEWISTON THE WINNER The Lewiston baseball team || last Sunday defeated the prairie league all-star players by a score of 13 to 2, the game being called at the end of the eighth inning on account of rain. Lewiston went into the game with a strong organization but in Turnbull, the local team haa its greatest strength. Turnbull is accredited with having pit- ched the greatest game ever witnessed on a Lewiston field. He secured 9 strikeouts and only one hit was charged against him. Wade and Hill, the all-star pitchers, secured four strike- outs but allowed 11 hits. Thompson, for Lewiston, se- cured two three-bag hits and Bishop, for Lewiston secured one thre-bagger which netted three runs. The umpire was A. C. Perciful and his decisions were entirely satisfactory to. the visitors, some of his decisions being very close. The game was witnessed by more than 500 spectators. -Lew- iston Tribune. Pale postage stamps, which came into use along with meat- less Tuesdays and heatless Mon- days, soon will go the way of the other repartures from establish- ed usage occasioned by the war. James L. Wilmeth, director of the bureau of engraving at Washington, D. C. said that the bureau, working 24 hours a day, has caught up with the tremen- dous demands made by the is- suance of the new bonds, rey- enue stamps and money, and that postage stamps hereafter will be engraved as of yore, in- stead of being produced bya cheaper printing process. The latest Douglas Fairbanks production, ‘“Headin’ South,” an Arteraft picture which will be shown at the Orpheum theatre next Thursday 14th., marks the entrance of Art Rosson asa director of Fairbanks’ pictures. He is a pupil of Chief Director Allan Dwan, who agreed with Fairbanks that Rosson was quite capable of handling a produc- tion.

Truck Will Speed up your hauling and at less cost per mile then Horses In buying a motor truck the purchaser shoud select the one that will furnish the most efficient transportation with the least interruptions, at the lowest operating cost per year. The experienced operator of motor trucks real- izes what frequent delays and interruptions mean— not only in increasing the operating costs, but in loss of business by reason of inefficient deliveries. The GMC and 2 ton model are, by reason of cer- tain definite advantages over other trucks of like capacities, better able to supply dependable transpor- tation. They are properly designed, each unit is arranged to handle its proportionate work. This design is not some untried theory of the engineering department and adopted because it looks well, or is theoretically correct. The present models of GMC trucks are the result of many years of truck building. Motor tructs must stand hard service to be pro- fitable to their owners, and GMC tructs are built for that service; there is no pleasure car construc- tion in them, no freak practices. For this reason there is less lost time than with many others; they are dependable and durable. Their are many G. M. C. trucks hauling heavy loads on all kinds of roads hereabouts and their own- ers will tell you to their superior merit. SS eS OS ES —— SS =. SS SS EE I) New Century Separator Altman and Taylor You can thresh more grain per day—and get cleaner separation—at a lower cost of running, with a New Century Separator than with any other separator ever made. This statement has been proven, beyond question, time and again. And in addition, a New Century Separator will last longer, and require less repair, than any other. The reason for this is easily found— The rotary shaker construction, patented by this company, practically doubles the separation capacity, requires less power to operate, and reduces vibration to almost nothing—giving long- er life. An eight-penny nail will stand on any part of the frame while the machine operation. is in This is only one of a number of features worth knowing about in these separators.

Dealers, under the rules pro mulgated by the state depari- ment of agriculture, are permit- ted to buy wheat on the basis of federal grades without sub- mitting samples to the state grain inspector, The ruies further say: “In case of disagreement ve- ween buyer and seiier, or upou demand of either one ot tie parties concerned, a sample must be submitted to the state grain inspector for his ofticial grade. The grade determined by the state grain inspector be- comes the official grade of the lot of wheat represented by the given sample and settlemeut must be made on that basi.. There is no appeal from a grade thus designated, but grading will be reviewed upon payment of a second fee.” Directions for selecting sam- ples say: “Three pints or more are necessary for an ordinary test.

A meeting of threshing ma- chine owners of the prairie coun- try has resulted in an agreement on the prices for threshing as well as an agreement on wages to be paid for labor about the machines says the Ilo Register. The price for threshing was fixed at 16 cents per bushel for fall wheat and a graduated price 18 cents a package Camels are sold everywhere in scientifically sealed packages of 20 cigarettes; or ten packages (200 cigarettes) in a glassine-paper- covered carton. We strongly rece ommend this carton for the home or office supply or when youtravel. will be effective for barley. The price on spring grain is left open because of the great difference in crops, it being agreed this price should be determined by the threshing machine owner after he had viewed the crop. The scale of wages to be paid for labor is practically the same as last year and ranges from $4 to $6 per day, the difference in pay depending upon the position filled.

Due to a_ scarilet-fever out- spread, the picnic of Aug., 10 for the church and Sunday school of the Community church was post-poned. Present con- ditions are so favorable, that we think it not dangerous to have such a picnic, so are asking that all interested in an all day picnic for Sunday Aug., 17, meet us at_ the Community church next Sunday, Aug., 10, and help us plan the affair. With this month, closes the Conference year at the commu- nity church. The Rev. Chas. MacCaughey, Dist. Supt., will be! here Aug., 21, to finish the church business before the meet- ing of the Annual Conference, the first of Sept., in Spokane. M. W. Sligar, Pastor. 40 ACRES BRING $26,000. New Plymouth claims the re- cord this year for an apple crop fruit off 40 acres that sells for $26,000, $650 an acre. This item is reported to The Boise Statesman by F. W. Man- ville of Boise, who is authority for the statement that the Reli- able Fruit Company has just contracted for the entire crop of apples of Mrs. McBride’s orchard at New Plymouth, on the trees, for $26,000. There are just 40 acres in the orchard. This sale, Mr. Manville be- lieves, is almost epochal. Upward of one-half the purchase price was paid in cash. “Tip Top” makes more loaves of better bread than other flour on the market. 24-tf Try a load of our mill wood, it is ideal for summer use. Hussman Lumber Co, | STAR OF “THE DISCIPLE.” William S. Hart, whose methods have been a large fact- or in reviving the popularity ot “Westerns,” has achieved a pro- nounced success by his work in “The Disciple,’ which will be seen at the Orpheum Theatre on Saturday 9th. The renewed popularity ot “Western” film plays due to Triangle enterprise and energies has curionsly enough brought about the return of the “drama of the plains” and of the heroes and bad men of a decade ago. Old playgoers will remember Mr. Hart as the Messala of “Ben Hur” when it was produced. He was also the originator of the role of Cash Hawkins in “The Squaw Man.” In “The Disciple” he creates the part of Jim Houston, the “Shootin’ Iron” Parson, who comes to Barren Gulch to establish a church. The play promises a greater sensation than the rainstorm produced in “The Iron Strain,” in the realistic thunder and lightening storm in “The Disci- ple.” A symphonic storm to ac- company these scenes has been composed by Wedgwood Nowell, and it is declared by those who have enjoyed a private view of the picture to lend great force to the effect. AGENT KILLS HOPPERS. John Finley, county agent, passed through Cottonwood last week, enrouted to his home at Grangeville, from the Edgar Fry ranch near Ferdinand where he demonstrated toa number of farmers that poisoning of grass- hoppers at this stage of the game is just as. effective as when they are hatching. After the poison began to work more than 50. hoppers were esimated to have been killed to the square foot. Mr. Finley stated that if at any time farmers in this neighborhood have problems that require his advice or atten- tion he wants them to only make their wants known and he will be only. to glad to help solve them. “Idaho Gold” costs less than other flour not half as good. 23-t
