The estray law in Idaho is good
one, as it requires persons to take
up stock to adSertise them, and

purpose of getting rid of furnishing
feed.

The attention Of executors and
administrators Of estates of deceased
persons is called to section $3.50 of
the Revised Statutes of Idaho; also

which fact may yet cause much
litigation for parties who innocently
purchased property belonging to
such estates.
The Ketchum Keystone says the
successful bidder for carrying the

letting his contract for $1,000 per
annum but we doubt it. The con-
tractors for carrying the mails be-
tween Rocky Bar and Min. Home
are to get $500 per year.
