Overdoes Things but
Many Crops Prosper
Under Sun's Rays This
Week.
Boise, August 18.—The past week
was exceptionally warm, especially
during the latter half when excess
ively high temperatures were record
ed. Rain occurred only in small
widely scattered areas and mostly in
small amounts, although the rainfall
in portions of the Panhandle was
sufficiently heavy to be of benefit to
crops and to pastures and range*.
There was little cloudiness and the
percentage of sunshine was high. In
the Boise-Payette valley there was
little wind movement but in the up
per Snake river valley and over the
Twin Falls region hot drying wind*
occurred.
It was too hot and dry for the best
progress of crop* generally, but it
was ideal corn weather and in irri
gated districts that crop made splen
did progress. The heat and drying
winds carried away soil moisture with
great rapidity and it wa^ necessary to
make liberal applications of irriga
tion water to keep crops growing.
Dry farm crops are suffering from
lack of moisture', although the bulk
of dry farm grain was well on the
wajf to maturity before the drought
became damaging. Late sown spring
wheat and the beet seed crop in some
fields were damaged to some extent
by hot winds. Hay cured rapidly
and the bulk of the second crop of
alfalfa is now in the stack. Timothy
harvest is pretty well over. A plenti
ful Crop of fine quality has been se
cured in the be*t of condition.
Garden and truck crops made good
progress; potatoes are maturing in
good shape; sugar beets made satis
factory advances; the beet seed crop
i* being harvested. Fruit is doing
well generally but prunes are drop
ping too freely in. some commercial
districts. Although pastures and
ranges are in need of rain and dry
ing badly in some localities range
feed ia still adequate and range stock
continue to thrive. Heavy shipments
of beef cattle and la nibs are being
made from Adams county and tifey
are coming off the range in fine
condition.

CALDWELL THIRTY YEARS AGO
Caldwell is the home of freaks.
Not long since, The Tribune dis
covered a man who never asked, "It
this hot enough for you?" and last
Wednesday a reporter found a man
7 years of age who was not a crack
ball player in his younger days. We
are now earnestly seeking for a man
who was not a "devil" in a printing
office at some stage of his life.
Rice, Reed, Thorp, Smithson, Dun
bar, Kelleher and Tukey returned
from the mountains last Sunday.
They went to Payette lakes and had
a good time—if hard traveling over
mountain roads for 10 days and four
days in camp can be called a good
time. Contrary to all expectations,
the party brought no deer or bear
home and their friends who were
expecting to eat venison or bear are
somewhat disappointed. This is eas
ily accounted for, however, when the
facts are known, all hard feelings
will disappear and the boys will be
be held up as shining examples of
law abiding citizens. Some vulgar
minds will jump at the conclusion
that there are no hunters in the party
but this merely shows the narrow
minds of some people. It was not
through a lack of ability that the
party returned empty handed but
through a superior knowledge of the
law. Rice and Reed, both being law
yers, called the attention of the baser
minds to the fact that it is unlawful
to kill deer in Idaho until September
and thereby undoubtedly saved the
lives of countless numbers of deer.
And bear—well, that is' different.
Rev. Anderson of this city looks
as though he could fight as well as
preach, should the circumstances
warrant. The other day as he was
walking along the street, he observed
two drunks who were quarreling and
'ust as he got opposite one of them
cnocked the Other down and began
kicking him. The reverend gentle
man quietly grabbed the pugnacious
and boisterous one by the collar,
marched him around the corner, turn
ed him over to the marshal and con
tinued on his way as though nothing
had happened.
The railroad has at last respected
Kimball street crossing and the agent
has orders to keep it open. The
shoes is now on the other foot, for
the crossing below the depot is
blocked up with impunity and freight
trains. This lower road is being
traveled a great deal and the other
day five freight wagons on çne side
of the track and one on the other
were compelled to wait half an hour.
The railroad needs about twice as
much side trackage as they have here
but there is no probability of them
laying it.
Payette has the only three-story
building on the O. S. L. in Idaho. It
Presents a fine appearance and is a
itting monument to the enterprise
of our bustling sisterd town.
Next Monday morning another
party of pleasure and recreation
seekers will start for the mountains
of Drybuck, to spend a couple of
months courting nature and incident
ally, each other. This party is the
"largest and noblest of them all" and
embraces many mighty men skilled
in the arts of war, and ladies fair
enough to die for without a strug
gle. The expedition is to be under
the immediate command of Captain

W. W. Dryden brought into The
Tribune office this week some
samples of Reynolds creek wheat
raised by Charlie Share. It is claimed
to go 100 bushels to the acre and
after a careful examination, our ag
ricultural editor says he believes it
will do it. Mr. Dryden says he did
not bring over the beat samples as
his axe was dull and he was hardly
strong enough to work his way into
the field where the "best grain was
growing.
Several Piute bucks and squaws
with a sprinkling of papooses have
been enjoying the freedom of the
town this week. There are also four
bucks languishing in jail for getting
boisterous on boose Saturday night.

Ugly but powerful.
Weiser signal
At an early hour Monday morning
we began to think that the office was
haunted. Things .were running along
quite smoothly when all of a sudden
a lot of type "pied" without visible
cause and (lies began to leave in haste
via the window route. The job press
refused to budge and the paste pot
began to give forth an unusual and
unbearable odor. Our hair stood on
end. Upon looking around we real
ized the- cause when we beheld a
powerful but ugly mug projecting in
side the door jam. We rushed quick
ly around, turned down his collar,
looked at the strawberry mark on
his left shoulder and grasped the
paw of Al Steunénberg, first degree
liar, with The Caldwell Tribune.
About the biggest baseball joke
ever pernetrstea on the baseball
community emanated last week from
Montpeliar, a hamlet in the south
eastern part of the state, in the shape
of a challenge issued by the baseball
club of that place to cross bats with
any town in Idaho for $500 the side
and the championship of the etste.
The editor of the paper there is en
titled to no little credit for this pro
duction of his preponderence of brain
and a situation on any comic page is
open for him at any time. Fer a
team that has never won a gall game
in its life, except it be from a kid
team of its own town, to throw the
whole state into spasms by issuing
such a challenge was a happy hit—
in fact, the first "hit" that the club
has made during its career.

The Whole Secret of
A Better Tire
Simply a Matter of the Maker 9 8 Policies
This you will realize—once you
.try a Brunswick—that a super-tire
is possible only when the name
certifies that the maker is follow
ing the highest standards.
For tire making is chiefly a mat
ter of standards and policies—cost
plus care. Any maker can build a
good tire if he cares to pay per
fection's price.
All men know Brunswick stand
ards', for Brunswick products have
been famous for 74 years.
Formulas, fabrics and standards
vary vastly in cost. Reinforce
ments, plies and thickness are a
matter of expense. And these vari
ations affect endurance. It rests
with the maker how far he wishes
to go—how much he can afford
to give.
For there are no secrets nor pat
ents to hold one back.
To ascertain what each maker
offers one must analyze and test
some 200 tires—as our laboratories
have done.
Then it is a matter of combining
the best features and building ac
cording to the highest standards.
Once you try a Brunswick you
will widerstand how we have built
model tires, regardless of factory,
expense. ,
Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the
same as other like-type tires. Our
saving is on selling cost, through
our nation -wide organization.
We i - ize that you expect more
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruns
wick will tell ycu the story.
And then you'll want ALL
Brunswicks. No other tire, you'll

money. -
