THE PRIEST LAKE COUNTRY.
Its Mineral and Agricultural Prospects --Many
ProspectorS and Homeseekers Flock
ing to the VALLEY.

"A huAiOOA "a SNu CAClldllgSS nave
had considerable to say of late con-
corning the Priest river and lake
country. For the most part these
articles have consisted of generali-
ties in which the imagination
played prominent part. To Mr..
R. Smith, a young gentleman who
was one Of the first to go into the
Priest lake country this year, we
are indebted for the following facts.
Mr.. Smith is in the employ Of w.
?. Granger, Of Spokane, and is
probably as well acquainted with
the developments going on in the
valley as any one whose name has
appeared in print in connection
with the country.
The only locations Of any i'm
portance that have been made are
at the head Of the lake, and in the
gulch through which the principal
stream that empties into the head
Of the lake flows. The ore is mostly
galena, but gold and copper have
been found. Placer claims have
been located farther up the gulch,
but nothing very rich has been dis
covered. On one claim about five
ounces had been worked out.
There are now about twenty-five
miners in the camp, but many
outfits are going in every day.
Those there now have not been To-
Gated over three or four weeks.
The country about the mines is
principally Of slate formation. The
prospectors have had but little time
to prospect their locations yet. One
of the best looking claims is that
owned by Jas. Homes and Mitchell,
Of Ceur a'Alene They have a
three foot vein Of galena that runs
so ounces in silver. Pelca & Gran
ger, Of Spokane, have located an
extension Of this ledge. 1t shows
up the same as the former. They
have traced the ledge for 1900 feet.
Homes & Mitchell will commence
driving a tunnel into their ledge
Immediately. A number Of the
prospectors intend to remain with
their claims during the winter and
develop them. There are a good
many other locations, a number Of
which prospect we'll.
The mines are reached by way Of
Sand Point. From there the road
is down the Pend d'Oreille to Kais-
er's ranch, two miles above Priest
river; thence there is a pack trail
over the mountains to the foot of
the lake, distance of forty miles.
At the foot Of the lake parties with
horses had best put their stock in a
pasture and take row boat to the
head Of the lake, which is sixty
miles distant.
In regard to the agricultural
lands, the quantity has been over
estimated. Not over a dozen ranch
ers have located in the valley. The
best Of the lands has been taken up
and not very many ranches worth
having remain.
1t is a fine country for pleasure
seekers. The scenery is grand, and
the country as wild and uninhab
itated as one could ask for. Hunt
ing is good. One can not make ;
trip through the valley withou
seeing deer and bear.
A wagon road is needed to develol
the country. There is no doub
that as mining country it is yer.

PorrrNe aERAN1uMs FOR WINTER.

An exchange gives some valuable
hints on the potting of geraniums for
winter blooming:
"There are frequent complaints from
ladies who do not succeed satisfactorily
in their window gardening so far as the
blooming of geraniums is concerned.
In most cases the fault is that flowers
are expected either from plants that
bloomed in the summer or that were
st irted too late in the season. Ifplants
are repotted in the fall they are checked
in their growth, and although the buds
already set may open, new ones will not
be formed until the plant has had a
resting time. If new plants are started
in midsummer and repotted early they
will not attain sufficient strength tc
bloom until late in winter.
If good blooming plants in winter
are wanted, small plants should be
planted early in the season, in this lati.
tude about the middle of May, in an
open sunny place, giving them plenty
of room. Permit no blossoming and
keep the shoots we'll trimmed in, MAX
ing we'll shaped plant. Lift in Au-
gust and put IN pots not too large, then
plunge them in the ground. Let the
hole in the bottom of the pot stand on
bit of stone or board, to prevent the
roots growing through, or worms get
ting into the pots. Keep the shoots
pinched in. If they are wanted to
blossom Gefore December, push them
with manure water not too strong. II
wanted in good condition for Christ
mas or New Year they should be kept
back and repotted the last of Septem-
Der, aud plunged again, remaining out
until there is danger of freezing, when
they should be brought into the house
and given plenty of air and light. A
tablespoonful of guano in a gallon OF
water, to which is added "a few drops
of ammonia, applied moderately will
be of service In Fastening growth. Be
careful not to use too large pots. Ge-
ran1ums blossom best when root bound,
that is, when the pots ara so full OF
roots as to make complete mass oi
them between the soil and the pot. Dc
not keep them too wet, and destroy in.
sects by fumigation as soon as they ap-
pear"
EMPTY TIN FRUIT CANS.
At this season of the year when pot.
ting plants for winter culture, the pur.
chase of innumerable flower pots be.
comes a serious drain upon moderate
purses, and pals and tubs and paint
kegs are pressed into service. The
American Garden thus recommends
the use of tin cans for this purpose,
which is very encouraging to the farm
er's wife who has already utilized
these hitherto useless receptalces and
transformed then, into thing of beam

LIVER COMPLAINT.

The liver, the kidneys, the heart the lungs
and the stomach are the most important organs
necessary for the preservation OF life. 1t Is
therefore the duty OF everyone who cares at all
for his bodily health to keep them in as good
condition as possible. But while the heart, the
lungs and the stomach in an ordinary constitu-
ted person can endure a pretty severe abuse
without stopping in their work, the livel is a
very sensitive organ. The least Interrupt
ton In its activity is noticed at once in 4
most disagreeable manner. Serious COM
plications may arise therefrom. for which the
physicians have invented a large number
of long Latin names, and which, II not
attended to promptly, are followed by long
and painful diseases and frequently by
death. Ordinary people usually class all these
diseases under the general name of
liver complaint. Their symptoms can be
easily recognized. A yellow color OF the
| skin, particularly of the white of the eye,
disagreeab!y bitter bilious taste In the
| mouth thickly coated tongue, loss of appe-
tite, dislike for meats, combined with head
ache, light attacks of fever etc.. these are IN
falling signs that the liver Is out OF order. As
soon as one or more OF these symptoms appear
it Is necessary. In order to prevent a serious
sickness, to remove from the liver all super
fuous bile and all waste matter, to promote
the free circulation of the blood, and to gently
stimulate the capricious appetite There is no
better remedy to accomplish this purpose than
| st. Bernard Vegetable Pills, which have been
Justly celebrated iGr t Long time They are
herbs OF the Alps, whose healing ingredients
| are made up by competent persons in the form
| of pills without the the admfxture of any min
| eral substances. The st. Bernard Vegetable
Pills can be obtained from any first-class drug
| glst. II your druggists haven't them, send .
| cents TO ''ST. BERNARD" Box 24lo, New York

| turn mail.

CO-OPE RAIIVE HOUSEKEEPING

A new idea in cooperative housekeep-
ing is about being inaugurated here,
and the movement will no doubt be
watched with considerable interest.
Albert Thalheimer, well-known
manufacturer and real estate owner, is
at the head of it. At the initial meet
ing, held last night august III, con-
siderable enthusiasm was shown, and
the project rs have no doubt of its
success. IL it results in all that they
claim for IT, its influence in bringing
about revolutionary changes in house
keeping will undoubtedly be wide
spread. The idea of the project is to
establish a community of persons and
their families on tract of sixty acres,
and the site selected is on Mt Penn
above this city. A draft of the plan
was submitted to the initial meeting,
and an architect will be employed to
prepare detailed drawings. he tract
is circular il form, with two circular
carriage drives, one 40 feet wide, en-
circling the entire trect, and the other
30 feet wide, around the central build
ings. The stockholders are to be limited
to about % men, with families. Each
is to purchase not less than Que acre o
ground, on which to erect a dwelling
house and lay out his property in good
order. In the centre of the tract are
to be put up large buildings, to be
used as a dining hall, library, and
read n ny-ro oms, ten-pin alley and other
apartments which can be used in com
mon, while croquet, lawn tennis and
ball grounds are to be located near by.
All the cooking for the entire commu-
nifty, over 100 persons, is to be done in
the main central building A compe-
tent cook, with assistants, is to have
charge of all meals and the dining hall,
and the expenses are to fall on the
families in proportion to their number.
All the houses are to stand back so feet
rom the 30foot carriage drive, and
face towards the central buildings, and
the stables will be in the rear or outer
CIRCLE. Every member is to have q
deed In fee simple to his property, but
he can only sell to person not OBJ
jectionable to all the others.
