The Commercial clubv has leased from George D. Aiken the upper floor of the Craven building, consisting of the hall and three rooms suitable for offices. The hall Is nicely furnished and the smaller rooms are very desirable. The club will pay a monthly rental of $65 and it Is anticipated that sufficient revenue can be obtained from the use of the hall and rooms to offset this expense. The city council will.

It is believed, use the hall for meeting purposes and doubtless some of the local organizations will do likewise. The lodge chairs in the hall were auctioned off at the meeting of the club on Thursday evening, Carl Hahn and Dr. Boyd bidding them in for the Knights of Pythias. It is possible that the club may furnish the rooms and devote more attention to the social features of the organization.

MILNER, i Entryman. MIGHT BE MERIT IN THIS Boise Man's -1 Invention for Lifting Water Great Height The most Important Invention for the entire arid region, and Drobablv the most important ever made In the west, It is believed, says the Capital News, is that of a water lifter, that operates with a slight current and will raise water from a river to the height of 300 or 400 feet The Invention is the result of years of study by S. R. Morden of Boise. The principle of his lifter is a plain one in hydrostatics, buf It has never been applied before to the raising of water from a river by the action of the current.

The principle of the hydraul ic ram, together with that of the ar- ch lined lan screw combined, is the basis of the machine, if it may be called a machine, as it contains no valves or pistons. A machine was tested In the Boise river a few days ago. It raised a stream amounting to 1000 gallons per minute to a height of 40 feet. The river was too shallow and the sand washed In, making much trouble, as a depth required for that size is eight feet It was taken out today and will be placed In the Snake river near Nampa to test Its workings where the current Is light. Those who have seen the plant say it is so marvelously simple In construction and works so perfectly that It will not only make the Inventor rich, but will be worth mil lions to sections of country along water courses with deep banks.

Bryan Purchases Some Fine Stock in Nebraska. Don C. Bryan and George T. Cum-mings have returned from Nebraska, where they bought 170 brood sows, most of which are registered. For himself Mr, Bryan secured a number of pedigreed Poland China hogs of the finest strain.

The Pioneer Storage Commission Co. took half the shipment. There is not a poor sow in the lot and some of them are exceptionally well formed. Mr. Bryan said they found a good deal of hog cholera In Nebraska which he attributed to over feeding with heating corn and allowing the hogs to drink stagnant water.

Hog cholera is unknown in Idaho. The hog mar ket was pretty high, said Mr. Bryan. The corn crop had been good and the farmers were doing well, but they were inclined to hang on to their hogs Mr. Bryan took an experienced hog buyer with him, a man who had bought hogs In Nebraska for 20 years, otherwise he would not have been able to pick up such good stock.

He picked from the herds and the best. "I noticed," said Mr. Bryan, "that they were shipping hogs at the rate of one carload per day from Kearney, Nebraska, to Portland, Oregon, we can raise hogs cheaper here than they can in Nebraska and as we are nearer the coast market I don't see why hog raising Is not going to be profitable. We have been experimenting on the Bryan and Filer farm and we find that hogs thrive well on alfalfa and red top. I was lucky enough to get some.
