NEW COMERS NOW ARRIVING
 
Eight Families With Household Goods Arrive This Week -- Colorado Conductor 
Buys Fruit Ranch at Fruitland
 
Many new comers are now arriving in Payette, and of those who come here merely 
to investigate a big percentage of them are so well pleased that they either 
buy property while here or else return within a short time and locate.  The 
richness and advantages of the Payette Valley appeal to them no matter from 
what part of the country they may have come.
 
During the last week eight families have arrived from eastern states with 
their household goods to locate here, and all of them are enthusiastic with 
the Payette Valley and Idaho in general.  Among them are A. L. Shafer from 
Edison, Neb.; Louis Eaton from Edison, Neb.; J. G. Nelson from Mosale, Iowa; 
J. Catnell from Idaho Falls, Idaho; C. H. Moore from Amherst, Neb.; Karl 
Hartman from Amherst, Neb.; Bland and Priber from Verdege, Neb.; and E. J. 
Bowerman from St. Joseph, Mo.
 
Besides these there are many others arriving.  G. T. Gormley of Grand 
Junction, Col., a conductor on the Denver & Rio Grande, likes the Payette 
Valley well enough to invest $4400 here.  He had heard a good deal of this 
valley from others who have come here from Grand Junction and he decided to 
make a short visit here.  The result was that he bought, through the agency of 
Ackerman & Wells, 40 acres of land near Fruitland of Lafayette Johnson for the 
amount stated.  He is going to set out a big orchard and intends to come here 
some time in the future and make his home.
