The choke cherry crop this year
will be immense, and no doubt the
huckleberry crop will also be abund-
ant, as when one is a success the
other is almost sure to be. No mat
ter if all other crops fail, the dwell
ers in Boise county will not suffer
from a famine this year. They vii
scoop in the cherries and buckles by
the hundreds of gallons. Boise
county can beat the world for de
licious buckles, and jelly and Jan
made from the cherry that has beer
christened the choke, but which
choketh not, are unsurpassed.

WATERY.

" Q are sure to have a long waite,
season this year. In addition to the
regular water courses we have Brook 9
Wells, a Flood, two Falls, River,
ana a Lake. Brooks frequently &c
dry early IN the season, but are bio
heip. In this case we have not only
one, but an indefinite number. as
you will observe we have the plural
OF Brook. These are Missouri Brooks
and Brooks in the possum State
are what we of the West would term
big creeks or small sized rivers
We would advise the Brooks to fol.
low the Biblical injunctlon-"In.
crease and multiply" Not necessary
this year, but in future years we NAV
have poor season, and then the
more Brooks the better. "You'll
never miss the water till the Well
runs dry;;" but the Wells here re-
ferred to never run dry, and our
Wells are missed principally by the
Misses. The Idaho City girls can
bring Flood from up above almost
any time they wish. 1t is fortunate
that the Flood is above us, and can
be brought down whenever needed.
Two Falls are all-sufficient to insure
a good season in case of failure
otherwise. One of them may oc-
casionally get dry, but will not be
dry long. Our Rivers never GO dry
in fact will not "dry up" when earn
sstly implorsd to do SO. There is an
other that is Hi-at all seasons, and
still another you can't Wade at any
time. For all these streams a good,
solid Channel can be furnished, and
from them you can Hall out White
fish and other varieties at your pleas
ure, almost any Day, if you're a
good Fisher, and at most it costs
no more than a Schilling for Bates,
but you can't get Angle-worms,
for they've departed from "these
parts" Our Lake is always full, and
sometimes running over, and we fear
will soon be running over for about
thirty miles. Besides the above we
have perpetual Snow, and can i'm
port another Snow of the same kind
from the capital at any time. The
only drawback to all these favorable
water supplies is our Dryde, who
may at any time cause drouth, but
not if Dryde can prevent it.

For Sheep Mountain.

Jas Daley, |. N. Daley, J. r.
bowers }. H. Hickey, John F.
Peterson, Wilburn Reed and Jake
Clemens, of Ada county, passed
through here last Wednesday, bound
tor Sheep Mountain. They had nine
pack animals, besides saddle horses
The Daley Brothers are the principal
owners of the Mountain King mine,
In that district. They have had Of
fers from two parties for this mine,
one OF the parties offering $4,000,
and 1T is probable that the sale will
be made this summer. The Noun
tain King ore carries from SO to 60
per cent. galena, and averages well
IN silver. Nine tons were shipped to
Denver last year and yielded $1,13O,
netting the owners $500. The vein,
at the narrowest point, is nine feet
"ioe, and all pay ore. The owners
have run tunnel 280 feet, besides
cross-cuts and raise. They now
have 800 tons of ore on the dump
that will run from $50 to 800 per
ton. There is wagon road from
Wood River to within eleven miles
of Seafoam, a small town in Sheep
Mountain district. The miners of
that section will push the road still
further this year. 1t costs shippers
s35 per ton to get their ores to Wood
River by pack trains, and s20 when
packed to the road and hauled from
there to Wood River. Seafoam had
one store last year, and will have two
this season. Sheep Mountain will
have greater population this year
than at any time since the first dis
covery was made. Two pack trains
will be there In few days to pack
ore-one owned by Kussuth and the
other by Woods. Chris Moler is
talking of putting up smelter in
Sheep Mountain district this summer.

The Sheep Mountain miners and
prospectors who passed through here
last Wednesday, requested the
WORLD to return thanks to Hugh
Clawson, who opened his toll gate
for them free. Hugh stands in with
the prospectors for the reason that
they do more than any other class to
open up new country, and are the
pioneers of civilization. The pros
pectors make trails into the mountain
regions, and in the course of time
wagon roads follow, and civilization
pushes on. The rugged prospector
blazes the way, uncovers bonanzas,
endures hardships, does the first
work of development, and to him is
due the greatest credit for the pros
perity that follows.
