than money in the country, and
that is rain.
We pay the highest market
prices for butter and eggs. F. R.
Coffin & Bro.
&C. w. Cooper is authorized to
canvass for THE TRIBUNE in the
Chicago convention.
Mr.. Ben. Young has recently
reftted and repainted his residence
in the north end of town.
Coffin still has the famous
Buckeye" binders, mowers and
reapers. The best known harvest
ing machines in Idaho.
Go and see that wonderful Nc
Cormick Steel Frame Binder
whether you have any idea of buy
ing one or not. We will be glad to
show it to you. COFFIN.
Charlie Picard, Of the enter
prising firm of Picard & Roberts,
came in with about thirty head Of
as fine beef cattle as one often sees
the other day.
The low and uncertain price
for wool has made the delivery very
very slow. A great many sheep
men are not going to haul their
weol at all unless prices raise.
After the raid of the horribles
on July Fourth, all the dead and
wounded will rush to Isham & Co.'S
with one accord and buy their
drugs. They have plenty for all,
Sixty thousand, three hundred
and twenty-one Mccormick mach
ines sold during the season Of 1887.
This is more than twice the num-
Der sold by any two other makers
on earth.
If you think of purchasing a
mower for the coming harvest, go
to Collins and have them show you
the new No. 4 Mccormick. 1t is
the strongest, the highest running,
the most simple, and the best grass
cutting mower on earth.
The Appleby Binder as used
by nearly all makers of Irvine
binders, weighs 400 pounds. The
wonderful new Mccormick weighs
only pounds. 1t has only seven
pieces, while the Appleby has forty
six. Coffin will be glad to show it
to you.
Little & Blatchley wish to in
form the public that notwithstand-
ing the dull times, they are still
at the same old stand, and are
carrying a larger and better stock
than eyer before. They give es-
pecial attention TO the wholesale
trade and solicit orders from the
surrounding country.
Sim Bailey and Mike Roberts
are making extensive preparations
to 60 east the 9Th Of next month.
They are trying hard to give out
the impression that they are going
back to get married, but THE TRI-
BUNE is betting two to one that
neither one has nerve enough to
take that important step,
Silver City people say tina. the
telegraph line will be used exclu-
sively. While they appreciate
the faiherly interest Boise City
is taking in their welfare, they
hardly feel under obligations strong
enough to warrant them support
ing a Boise City enterprise at the
expense of one of their own.
60 to Coffin's for your boots
and shoes. An immense new line
of Gents fine boots and shoes just
received. Also another stock of the
celebrated Henderson" shoes for
Ladies, Misses and Children. Re-
member the "Little Red School
House" shoe for children; it has no
equal for neatness and durability.
If there is one thing that Cald-
well should attend to more than
another, it is the Jordan Valley
mail line. No one can fully realize
the Importance of this enterprise
without going over into that coun-
try and seeing. The people over
there will make every effort, and
Caldwell should push the matter
to speedy consumation.
Over in Jordan Valley, and in
fact in all the high valleys, the cold
weather last winter completely
killed out the alfalfa and timothy,
thus ALMOST entirely destroying the
hay crop for this year. As winter
ing stock on the range, in its pres
ent condition, is almost out of the
question, the outlook for the stock
men in that region is rather blue.
lhere Will be lots OF stock sold this
year at some price.
1t is really amusing to see how
nicely the boys at Nampa "work"
the reverend local on the States
man. They ghbiy manufacture
neat little story, sugar-coat it with
a little fiattery, and laugh in their
sleeves at the avidity with which
he swallows the bait. Telephone
nearly completed! Nampa division
stationll Post holes to Warm
springs!!! Great Scottl they will
ruin his reputation yet:
The holes for the telegraph
line have been dug, and the poles
distributed from Silver to the Snake,
over two weeks ago. They are now
waiting for the wire, which was
shipped over month ago, but
which, unfortunately, was mis-
carried. It is now looked for every
