the mountain streams in this vicinity
is much higher at present than during
any time last season. With the vast
amount of snow in the mountains to be
converted into water, it cannot but
help to do considerable damage to
bridges spanning these rivers. The
numerous ordinary streams, but which
are now rivers, all put into the Salmon
river and help to make this river
"boom" on its downward course

There Is far greater area of territory
seeded on Camas prairie this season
than in any former year. The farmers
are very much encouraged with the
prospects of prolific crop. The soil is
In fine condition, being damp enough
to insure prolific growth. There is
little danger of a repetition of the hot
west winds that proved so disastrous
last spring and early summer. There
is an abundance of snow in the noun
tains that will linger until late in the
summer and temper the Winds to the
shorn agriculturist.-Free Press.
