FOR AN IDEAL HOME
BUY YOUR. 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.

lifelong study of ir
rigation have examined and approved of
Hanford, and as an evidence of their
faith have purchased land hero.
Hanford is located in the center of a
fruit belt that includes North Yakima,
W.enatchee and Kennewick. Situated
in the bend of the river 35 miles north
of Kennewick on the west bank of the
Columbia river, protected from exces
sive winds by the Saddle mountains on
the. north, the Rattlesnake mountains on the south and west and the high bank
of the Columbia river on the east, favored by a climate from two to three weeks
earlier than other districts, the fruitgrower at Hanford is assured of success.
Don't delay until you have to pay $400, $500 or $2000 an acre for your
land, but get it now on the ground floor while you can still get irrigated land
with all water rights at from $200 to $300 per acre, on terms of one-fourth
down and the balance at the end of five years.

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.

Wells-Eargo to BnlM at Eugene.
The Ouard Is Informed by reliable
authority that the Wells-Fargo Ex
press company will soon ebegln th
erection of a brick building adjoining
the Southern Pacific company's new
passenger depot now In course of
construction, says the Eugene Guard.
It in said the building will be quite
large and the architecture will be In
keeping with thot of the depot. It Is
also said that all of the business of
the company will be conducted In tho
new building, and that the down town
office will be done away with. Owing
to tho close proximity of the depot
to the business section of the city this
could be done without any Incon
venience either to the company or to
Its patrons.
