When you have electric water heating in the house, there's a constant supply of hot water— nature's gentle, soothing medical treatment. Hot water, too for dishes, for wash day, for cleaning day— it saves time and labor all around. E L E C T R IC WATER HEATING IS CHEAP pretty. A combine has come into the Hol low and threshed wheat and barley for Jim Trummel, wheat lor Chet Sage, wheat for Mort Wixon and now Is threshing for Frank Parker. George Gabriel’s corn is looking fine and Sam Cates' watermelons are getting ripe. Clarence Niccum's wife and kiddies came home Friday morning so the Happy Farmer Is wearing a big smile too. Elza Niccum feared all spring that the rabbits had ruined Ills hopes for a crop, but now since he has poisoned most all of them off his hay has • perked" up and he Is go ing to raise considerable leed. We see two cars with trailers come into Dale Limbaugh’s yard last week and now we count six head of new cattle in his pasture. Chet Sage has a broad grin and says, "My cream check raised $3.00 last week,” and Margret says "may- by Chet can get himself a new pair of overalls now.” Mrs. Chuck Share has been rath er "under the weather” and is now over at Caldwell taking medical treatments. While Chuck is a baching his outside toilet caught fire and burned completely up. Rus sel Howell says "well the insurance companys will Insure anything, but that is the last thing I would think to insure.” Clarence and Elza Niccum’s brother Howard and his new bride and their mother brought Clarence’s wife and kiddies home from Wen dell, Idaho, and took Elza's wife and kiddies back with them. She will visit with the Niccums at Wendell and then go on to Twin Falls and visit with her father and her sister and some of her friends. Last week L. P. Thomas and Mr. Robert Eyck and Mr. H. Sanford were out looking over the project and drove up Cow Hollow. They stopped and chatted with us a while and took some pictures. Mr. Eyck and Mr. Sanford are with the Bureau of Reclamation and work out from the Boise office. They were out gathering informa tion on the new Reclamation farms for the benefit of some of the peo ple back east.

(a) In the first place the U. S. Government must pay millions In soil conservation checks to get us to curtail our crops so our Good Neighboring nations can have a market here for a part of their farm produce. (b) In the second place It Is mighty fine of the Reclamation Service to reclaim this land so as to give thousands of us homes and a chance to make a living, that a chance to make otaoi jn-h. 2hk- otherwise many of us would be homeless and on relief for a living. Thousands of workmen get work on these big dams and other Rec lamation work where otherwise most of them would be on relief too. (c) And in the third place the Government has to let these other nations ship In their wheat, meat, sugar and numerous other agricul ture products for to—? Mr. F. D.
