Frank Ando has sold the City cafe, in Grangeville, to Y. Kondo, a Japanese, of Spokane. Pos- session will be given April 15. Kondo, with his wife and two children, arrived in Grangeville Monday night. Ando is — cided as to his plans, but said he may remain here. Financial aid for erecting buildings in Grangeville for county fair purposes was asked of the board of county commis- sioners by a committee, repre- senting the Idaho county farm bureau and local interests, Thurs day afternoon. The board has taken no action on the matter. The buildings which it is propos- ed to erect would cost about $1600. Annual meeting of the Alex- ander-Freidenrich Co., depart- ment store, was held Tuesday at which time officers were reelect- ed as follows: President—Milton Freidenrich ; Vice president, sec- retary and manager—Frank Mc- Grane; Treasurer—A. L. Gilke- son. A successful year of bus- iness was reported to the stock- holders of the company. Work will be started at once, on a short but difficult piece of road on Salmon river, between | Robbers’ gulch and Dry gulch, according to word received late | Thursday from Whitebird. The road will be only 600 to 700 feet long, but, because of heavy rock formation, has been regarded as | difficult of construction. Grant Smith & Co., contractors on the North and South highway, have | sublet the job to Joe Peterson. F. N. McKay, who last fall as- sumed the Bicknell contract for | completion of the Grangeville- Whitebird link of the North and South highway, on Tuesday sub- let the contract to Dan Johnson. Mr. Johnson had the station con- tract for a mile of the highway | between Whitebird and Salmon river. This was the first piece of road to be completed in the present project. Since finish- ing this job, he has done station work for the Bicknell concern and for Grant Smith & Co. F. E. Lukens was reelected superintendent of the Grange- ville public schools for the year 1921-22, at an adjourned meet ing of the school board Wednes SS ———— I —— COUNTY SEAT NEWS ITEMS. | Ss TURDILY built—designed for power and dependability, possess- ing grace and beauty in every line— the new Buick Nineteen Twenty One series signally upholds the traditions that have made the name Buick a not- able word in the automotive industry. Two decades have more than justi- fied the unwavering fidelity to the accepted engineering ideals to which Buick stands committed. The same rugged Valve-in-Head motor re- fined is a distinguishing feature of every model. In appearance, the Buick Nineteen ‘Twenty One series is notable for Emblem of Satsfaction the harmonious blending of low, graceful body lines; in appointments, for those added refinements that so materially increase the pleasure and comforn of motoring. In addition to the general features of the new models the Buick Five- Passenger Touring Car (Twenty One Forty Five) possesses a roominess of tonneau and new arrangement of seating that afford occupants the ut- most in riding comfort. For the business man or his family; for the needs of city driving or country driv- ing, this model excels because of its capacity for varied service. wants to see you at the Hoene Hardware day evening. Mr. Lukens hee | eS served for two years as head of the local schools. Position of high school principal was tend- ered to Miss Margaret Sweet, but she has not as yet accepted Miss Tuttle was reelected teach- er of science in the high school. Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Ladd were reelected teachers of the seventh and eigthth grade, and Miss Ruth Pederson was again select- ed as a grade teacher. Miss Anna Beewar, teacher of the first grade, was reelected. Other teachers will be selected later. Dale Hazelbaker, the little son of County Assessor and Mrs. Cal Hazelbaker, who was so severe- ly burned on February 28th, is making rapid progress toward recovery. It is sad to state that the little fellow’s lips are drawn as the healing takes place and his checks are somewhat scarred by the severity of the flames that enveloped him. His parents will take him to a spec- jialist as soon as his burns are sufficiently healed and have the tension taken off his lips and what other assistance that can be rendered nature. NEWS FIFTEEN YEARS AGO. Cottonwood is at last to have an electric light system. Lewis Maugg, a scholar of the Keuterville public school, is the proud possessor of an 8th grade diploma secured at the last ex- amination. The Lange family moved out onto their new farm south of Keuterville Saturday and the boys are now doing baseball stunts with plows and harrows while Mr. Lange directs their “work out.” By far the worst earthquake of modern years and perhaps the worst in the history of the civil- ized world visited the state of California in and near San I"ran- cisco at 5:15 o’clock last Wednes- day morning. BUYS PASTURE LAND. George Troeh last week pur- chased the 200-acre tract adjoin- ing his place on the west and north from J. N. Blackburn a nephew of W. W. Blackburn of Cottonwood. The price paid was not given out but as the place is principally pasture land, it is generally understood that Mr. Troeh secured a real bargain. The land is situated near th mouth of Graves creek. — Grangeville Globe. Yes, that word “Efficient” as used for the title, means exactly what you think it means. It means that the HUGHES Electric Range— —is competent to do everything that any range will do quickly and well. —that you do your work with less worry and bother, while securing better and more uniform results. —that the oven, built on the fireless cooker principle, enables you to cook an entire meal without using the surface burners. —that the kitchen is easily kept immaculate because there is no fuel, refuse, no soot or vapors. —that you will work in comfort because practically all of the heat goes right into the cooking operations and the temperature of the kitchen is not in Surely these reasons entitle us to call the HUGHES efficient. Let us give you a copy of ‘‘How to Modernize” and tell you more about the HUGHES Electric Range. Grangeville Electric Light & Power Company HIRE PAVEY AGAIN. The county commissioners, at a meeting held in Grangeville |~ last Thursday afternoon made an appropriation to the Idaho County Farm Bureau, the funds appropriated by the commission- ers to be used in defraying the salary and expenses for a coun- ty agent. At a meeting of the executive board, of the Idaho County Farm Bureau, Thursday evening, they voted to retain Ralph Pavey, the present county agent for another year. Farmers on the west side ap- pear to be very strongly in favor of the county agent, realizing that they saved thousands of dollars through the untiring services of this department dur- ing the recent grasshopper cam- paign. Another movement, from which they expect to save crops, valued at thousands of dollars will be the systematic campaign on the Columbia ground squirrel, which according to the U. S. de- partment of agriculture, for every squirrel killed will save the farmers 50 cents, in other words every squirrel is figured by the department to do that much damage if allowed to continue on his path of destruction. The poison distributed through the) farm bureau last year, the ef- fects of which killed thouands of | squirrels will no doubt be three fold when scattered in a system- atic way. The re-election of | Mr. Pavey as county agent was welcoming news to the farmers | on the west side of the prairie. DEFEATS LEWISTON. The Grangeville base ball team in its initial game of the season defeated the Lewiston team on | - its home grounds last Sunday by a score of 16 to0.

The famous Cowboy band will accompany the Grangeville team | to Lewiston. Harry C. Cranke, auctioneer, Nezperce and Grangeville, Idaho.
