HOLIDAY THANKSGIVING.
The Independent, according to
its annual habit, will observe
Thanksgiving day in a holiday
to its employes and no daily will
therefore be issued tomorrow,
The banks and postoffice will be
closed and many business houses
have announced their intention
of closing for the hour of union
services at the Presbyterian
church.
The year soon to close has been
one of good times for the South
land, which seems to be entering
a new era of development and
consequent prosperity. For these
many material blessings and the
advantages that are each year
offered a more enlightened peo
ple, it does well behoove us to
stop in contemplation of the
goodness of the Ruler of the uni
verse and to ascribe and offer
thanks to Him for His manifold
kindness and indulgence.

SNAKE RIVER VALLEY.
The largest irrigation enter-,
I prise in America is located in the l
rich Snake River valley of Idaho, j
which has been reclaimed
through man’s handi-work.alone, j
| In this valley which is now com- i
fortably settled, there remains
j 270,000 acres of land belonging
to the state of Idaho, which is
under the Twin Falls irrigation
canals and open to settlement.
This land is among the richest in
America, as experiments have
proved. Potatoes here yield 200
to 400 bushels to the acre of
large size and fine variety. Wheat!
yields from 40 to 70 bushels t®
the acre with an average weights
of 63 pounds per bushel. Three I
crops of alfalfa are raised each
season in the Snake River valley.
The climate is superb and of;
great value as a tonic for mind j
and body. Home-seekers’ low
rates to the Snake River valley
are in effect via Union Pacific,
the only direct route. Why not
visit this district in person and
fully realize its great possibili
ties? For full information ad

KEYSTONE OF . jP
Kimball Piano [
STRUCTURE. j
_ *
The sale of the Kimball Piano Is the keystone of its unsurpassable quality, the founda
tion of its great musical worth, the cause of its popularity With artists and musicians. Perfect
piano scale-making is a mathematical problem figured out by sound waves to the merest fraction
of a second. Not all piano makers strive for perfection along this line (many making no pre
tense). but out of the few who have nearly reached the goal,
Kimball is Prominent, ''v
One of the most perfect musical scales is displayed in the cultivated human voice. An
imperfect scale piano is like a person who cannot sing correctly—it’s worse because all do not
claim to sing. It costs money to cultivate the voice, it costs more money to perfect a piano
scale. The cost to produce a perfect Kimball scale has been no less than that of °ther of the
recognized artistic pianos of the world, yet because of the advantages of the largest output
from any factory, we are able to sell the Kimball at a very moderate price, quality considered
The Kimball Bystem and easy payment plan brings it within reach of all.
