BUAL LOOKS MICHTY Goob| New Idaho Town Looms Big on Map | Just Now, ITS ORCHARD LAND IS RICH Vast Area Around it J Beginning | to Yield the Wonderfu | With vast acres of delta land stretching round it, and with all the conveniences that sclence has produced giving comfort and facllity to handle its resources within it, Buhl, Idaho, is one of the towns that are fissipating & misconception. With towns like Buhl standing as conerete contradie- | tions of the romantic reports plcturing “the wild and woolly” west, the business men of the east are fast learning that the west holds forth opportunity in a civilized | guise, It 18 becoming recognized as a matter of fact that Idaho towns are more up-to-date than eastern towns of a like size. In Idaho everything Is new and modern, and of the latest and most approved type. A fitting | representative of these towns ix Buhl. | There are five churches in the town of Buhl, a modern graded achool system, daily mail and complete postal facilities, pas- sengers and express service, and the news of the world brought to the doors of the inhabitants by a dally paper. Buhl has a water system for both domestic and busi- ness service that affords complete fire protection. Ample markets in the contain everything' necessary the dwellers, at reasonable prices. A rural mall delivery is being established before the present year is ended it Is expected a trolley line will be in operation, There are electric lights and telephones in Buhl. The eyes of An eastern man are opened In amagement when he comes upon the country surreund. ing Buhl in his investigation. Here he finds farming on a scale and under methods ho never dreamed of before. The farmer in this section does not depend upon rgins for his crops, neither does he fear that floods will destroy his products. A long growing season and water ap- plied at just the right time conspire to cause plants and trees to grow in remark- able fashion. The plant life is not affected by Insects, worms and other pests, as is the case in other climates. An example of what Is developed in the Buhl country was shown when a merchant of the town offered a five-dollar hat for the largest potato grown in that vicinity. The winning potato welghed eight pounds and ten ounces, and another one N\lhmlllfll\ weighed seven pounds and nine ounces. The Hon. B. H. Grubb of Colorado, an authority on potato culture, said recently, “I would not be afrald to undertake to pay for any plece of land I have seen in this section with the crop of potatoes I could raise on it."” A considerable part of the possibility in the Buhl section was created by the great irrigation diteh which was buflt through town | tor profit It. Much fruit is raised on the surround- Ing land as well as vegetables. One farmer reports he bas successfully pro- duced five varieties of apples, four varie- ties of pears and also plums, prunes and smaller fruits on his ranch, Prof. P. G. Holden, the agricultural ex- pert of the Towa Agricultural college, said concerning the Buhl distriot: “Trees there have a growth In three years equal to that of ours in five years.' The quality of the fruit grown near Buhl bas been appraised as the very best in re- pOrts at the several great expositions. A report on this score from the Chicago ex- position, based upon a large exhibit rep- resenting twenty-three varieties correctly named, Is as follows: “The fruit is mer- Horlous for dessert and cooking, but ex- cels chiefly in color, uniform size, freedom from Insect and other blemishes, and for these reasons are especlally valuable for market purposes.’” Statistics showing the results of fruit growing around Buhl have shown that many orchards are producing from $500 to $1,000 per acre per year. Small fruits and berries are unsurpassed in the reglon In the possibilities of farming around Bubl It has been shown that corn of a fine quality ¢an be grown there with & vield of 62% bushels to the mere. Corn, alfalfa and hogs make a fine combination that 1s being used by many the section. The sugar beet farmers of | Industry is also being developed to a large extent throughout the Buhl country. It Is expected this industry In the near future will take its rank as one of the fore- most in operation there, An especlally mild and equal elimate helps the country in its farming poten- tiality. The days are sometimes warm in Jdly and August, but the nights are in- variably cool. The coldest weather ex- perienced during the winter of 190 was 3 degrees above zero. Prostrations because of the heat are absolutely unknown. There are no floods, drouths or biissards, | Under these Influences of favor the farmers of the section find it easy to raise with equal facility, cattle, hogs, sheep, poultry, fruit, wheat, oats, alfaita and vegetables, It Is expected by those who have cast their lot in Buhl that the country sur- rounding it will one day be the greatest frult raising section in the land The Buhl country at this time has been settled and cultivated from three to five years. Owing to the smaliness of most of the farms, the district has developed with marvelous rapidity. It is now under full head: toward substantial growth. The selection comprises 20,000 acres and was the first great area to receive water from the Snake river for irrigation pur- poses. Prices for the land varies according to location and improvement. Raw lands are seling for $i0 to $60 per acre, while | improved farms can be had for from §7 to $100 an acre, with water rights included. Buhl has been selected as the operating point for vast irrigation enterprises, be- use of its commanding situation as the leading town in the great irrigational dis- trict. A dam Is being constructed at a point thirty miles south of Buhl, and & canal line will convey the stored waters in the reservolr upon 50000 acres of high grade agricultural land. The northern end of this tract s situated about fourteen miles southwest of Bubl. The lands in this tract may be purchased wor ) cents an acre In forty, elghty and 10 or 180 acre tracts. The price of water right is 30 per acre, payable 10 per cent each year for ten years. Some of the most beautiful scenery in the | find every opportunity to live and prosper clad mountains seen in three directions. The rivers abound in trout and are pos- | seswed ot most attractive spots. The town itself holds forth exceptional advantages for education and the genera) | culture of its inbabitants. There is a good | moral atmosphere. 1t has kindly, broad- minded, western spirit, for which the west- ern people are famous. The settier here will world lles in the Buhl district, with snow In a growing community.

BY THOMAS EMMETT DUBLIN, April 16.—(Special Dispatch to The Bee)—Even if the next general elec- tion should be held as early as May, the nationalists will be ready for it. As soon as the results of the last general election became known the nationalist leaders were convinced that another battle would have to be fought before the way could be cleared for home rule. They began to pre- pare for it at once. The war chest has been steadily filling, and It §s now certain that the legitimate expenses of the next| | general plection cah be met. As soon as| | the situation clears up sufficiently to show when the next battle will be fought, an| appeal will be made to America for funds | and assurances have been received they will be forthcoming. Redmond's position has heen greatly strengthened by the recent course of events and it s probable in the next Parllament the O'Brien faction will not have more than half the strength it now has. Bremch of Fromise Suit. The daughter of a woman who claims to have been the housekeeper of the late President Garfield has just won & sult for breach of promise in Cork. She is Johanna Callaghan, Knockhane, Kilmichael, and she sued James J. Buokley, who resides at Ballyhonoen, near Blarney. Buckley had also lived In Amerfca, but returned to Ire. land some time ago with $,00. He hought a farm and paid court to Miss Callaghan She consented to marry him, but his af- tection cooled and the suit resulted. He was muloted in the sum of 800 for trifling with the young woman's affections. Sir Horace Plunkett. Sir Horace Plunkett, who fs endeavoring to establish a national trade mark for Irish butter, comes of a family the mem- bers of which have for the last seven cen- | turtes played ne small part in the history | of Ireland After leaving Oxford, he took Jo cattle ranching In western America, where he spent ten years and acquired that knowl- edge of practical farming which has since stood him In such good stead.
