HOME The small irrigated funn ie the farm that is now in de mand and will be in demand in the future. Why? In tho first place it is the farm that affords the best opportu nity for the enjoyment of life. No other kind of farm affords the conven ience of nearby neighbors and schools and churches, trolley lines, telephones and daily mail. Tho tide is turned. City-tired people want irrigated farms. The demand is greater than the supply and the prices will go up as never before. While the soil is practically uniform throughout the district, choicest locations are eagerly sought by those who first came. WHERE TO BUY In buying irrigated fruit land you will make ho mistake if you get good foil in a good climate, where you have plenty of water for irrigation, good drainage and in a locality that has been proven to he good for fruit. iSoil experts, experi enced fruit men, cap italists and men who have made a In the Irrigated Lands at HANFORD! lifelong study of ir rigation have examined and approved of Hanford, and as an evidence of their faith have purchased land hero.

The grave of "Jack Pot," once the rendezvous of those who rolled tho high cards while concealed within the cellar room under the old Senate saloon, which has recently been razed to make way for the modern building which will bo erocted at the corner f Eighth and Idaho streets, is gradually being desecrated and di vested of Its original appearance by the plow and scrapers of the force engaged in exca'atlng for the foun dation of the new business block, says the Boise Capital News. Around this cellar chamber which was exposed with the removal of the floor of the old Senaie saloon, cen ters history connected with the los ing and making of fortunes In a night at the most enticing of all games of chance, stud poker. Many are the tales of big games where fortunes changed 'hands In a singje night that are whispered about tho Streets by the old-timers who, observing the grave of "Jack Pot," as disclosed by the razing of the Sen ate saloon and excavating for tho new building, gather about the historic spot and become reminiscent. The cellar chamber which was lo cated directly under the bar of the Senate saloon, was, until within a few years, the resort of the professional gamblers who drifted In and out of the city, and who composed a large per cent of the floating population of the city. The cellar chamber was- finely fur nished and fitted, afforded conceal ment and protection for the gam blers who played night after night without fear of Interruption from the officers of the law. A few years ago the den was dis covered, the wall next to the side walk on the Eighth street side cav ing In ro that possersby oln the street could look down into the apartment.

The wheat In the lower valley, that Is. down beyond Kennewlsk and in and about that section of the country, is said to be In better condition than that tarther up. The conditions are thut following a winter In which tho snowfall and rainfall ere very light, particularly about the Rattlesnake section, htero has been a season of unusually clear, dry eather and heavy winds. These winds have had he effect of further absorbing such moisture as there was, of blowing some of tho grain out and burying more of it. In spite of all .this and the damage thus done, which cannot be repaired, there is a belief on the part of experts thai it Is yet too early to give up hope.
