HE sand in the bed of the South
Fork of Payette, at Garden valley,
pans out well. A few Chinaman and
a white man made So per day each,
last fall, when the water was
at It's lowest stage. They shoveled
up the sand where the water was
knee-deep, and over. The residents
of the valley tell MS there is lots of
good ground along near the river for
several miles above the bridge. The
heavy expense that would have to be
incurred in getting water onto the
ground has prevented the working
of it. 1t is believed there are good
many bars that would soon repay
the outlay of digging bitches and rig
glng up tor work, and become good
paying diggings. If the attention
OF capitalists is directed to that Sec
ton, valuable placer claims will I'M
doubtedly be opened up over there.
Two claims have been worked the
past few years, one by N. Carpenter
and the other by Hank Thompson.
