"A TRIBUNE representative was
in the great Parma country the first
OF this week gathering material for
a write-up of that section. AS he
spent most Of the time cursing the
eccentric running gear of the O. s.
L., he is no condition to report this
week.

travelling for the Payette Nurser-
les in Montana and Utah for some
months past, arrived in Caldwell

used him well

somewhat resembling Sir John Fal-
staff.
We acknowledge a compli-
mentary to the Fourth Annual
Fair at Eagle Rock, from Secretary
Wheeler, Of the Eagle Rock Regis

are becoming noted. A day or two
spent there would learn one much
in regard to the productiveness Of
Idaho's valleys.
-Chas. Cakes, of Emmett,
drove up to THE TRIBUNE door last
Monday and with the aid of a der
rick lowered a water melon as big
as hay stack to the walk. Sew

into the Office. eff had an quartz
wagon that would stand the strain,
/ would bring you over a big one, y
said the genial Charlie blandly.
