The climate in this section of Idaho
to the average easterner is surprising.
1t is of remarkably equal tempera-
ture and the health is not surpassed in
any country on the face of the earth.
The water is pure and sparkling, and
is said to be u sure cure for dyspepsia,
and the best of all is there is no such
thing as malaria here. A cloudy day
is rarity, still there is sufficient mois-
ture for luxuriant and healthy growth
Of the finest grass the world ever knew.
The people as a rule are law-abiding,
prosperous and happy, and what more
can we ask.--Idaho Falls Times.
Search this broad continent from the
frozen shores Of the Arctic to the gap
ing mouth of the Mississippi; from the
rocky shores of the Atlantic to the
golden shores of the Pacific, and where
will you find climate equal to Idaho?
1t cant be found; it doesn't exist.
Idaho is land of sunshine, Of flowers,
of great crops, of beautiful, rolling
prairies, of soil more prolific than the
valley Of the Nile, and it is here you
will find the finest timber IN the world J..
The sick who come to Idaho get well,
the poor become rich and the shiftless
acquire habits of industry. Nature has
lavished her choicest gifts upon this
state, and invites The young men of the
poverty stricken east to come and enjoy
her free will offerings. And they do
come! They come by rail, by wagon,
afoot and on horseback. They come
from al points of the compass, and are
happy when they get here, and are
happier as the years creep slowly by.
There is room for great many more
and they are welcome. There is land
for the landless homes for the homeless,
and friends for the friendless. Come,
and you will never regre, it; come, and
you will be glad to stay.-Pocatello
Tribune.
For a great number of years placer
mining has been conducted along
Snake river, probably no place in the
world is there another as great deposit
of fine -four gold as in the valley OF
this stream. Mining has been success
fully carried on from Idaho Falls down
to a few miles below the high bridge OF
of the Oregon Short Line, distance
by the stream of nearly 400 miles
Above the bridge for about seventy
miles there are only a few inches fall to
the mile, and while the bars on each
side are rich in gold the difficulty OF
getting water on them is such grea'
OF sticle that comparatively little MN
ing has yet been done. AT points
where water can Ike secured in abun
dance there ia undoubtedly good pay
in store for judicial mining. G'enn'
Ferry is at the upper end Of the slug
gish portion of the river about 100 miles
A(OVe Tie ". LIZ Va tuSsN'
Ferry the stream has heavy fall mos
of the distance from its source. Severa
machines are kept in operation in TIT
season at the Ferry and are said to pa.
handsomely. Between Shoshone FAN
and American Falls various partle
have placed in large wheels ana ar
taking the water from the river AM
realizing large profits. With all ID
canals that will soon be taken out O
Snake river the water will be lowere'
80 that miners can work the cente
bars at great profit. 1t is not unreas
enable to expect a return of the Califol
MA DAYS of 40. The bed of Snake rive
is lined with gold and all that Is neede
to successfully operate it is to reduc
the flow of water from the stream o
means of canals. Idaho will yet tax
the lead as the gold producing state
the Union.-Idaho Falls Times.
