Will Ask A Squarer Deal Payette Ditch Extension Absorption
Ranchers and land owners under the Second Extension of the Payette ditch seek absorption by the Payette Ditch Co to join the parent company. They currently must own shares in three companies at 100 each and pay assessments, creating unequal costs. A consolidation of the three ditches is urged to end the double payments and district management split. James White of Bryantaville Indiana comments on court remedies. DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve promoted for healing running sores after six years of failure by doctors.
