that Frank Andreas' new hotel

stories high, with two wings 14x2O
each. The hotel is run by-Mrs.
Madden and daughter in st-class
style and is receiving excellent pat
ronage.
About seven miles northeast of
Mountain Home and where the
sparkling waters of Little Rattle
snake creek emerge from the noun
tain canyons, is situated one of the
most picturesque spots and prettiest
homes to be seen in all Idaho. 1t
has been occupied but a few years,
yet there is wonderful evidence of
the handiwork of the. thrifty and
industrious husbandman. Here
may be seen young apple trees lit
orally bending from the weight of
large mellow fruit, besides other
fruit trees, vines and berries too
numerous to particularize; also
corn, tomato, melon and potato
patches showing such luxurious
growth as to excite wonder in the
minds of the denizens of the parched
valley below that such things exist.
Beautiful poplar trees-some thirty
feet high-surround a large and
comfortable dwelling house; a stone
cellar stands convenient, with a
never-failing stream running at its
door; good barns and carriage
houses are in handy proxjmity---in
short, everything that could tend
toward making beautiful ard
happy home. And such it is for
c. P. Oliver and his estimate young
wife, the owners, and whose latch
strings are ever outside, and whose
cordial greeting and good cheer
within can not he surpassed.
