from the mines and stock, but
to-day has been forced to step
back for its more fortunate sis
ter, Grangeville,
Grangeville, situate within two
miles of Mount Idaho, (the off
spring of that town, IN years
gone by, like Brother Jonathan,
started out for herself and with
in two miles of the county seat,
started what, in the past year,
has proven "a near userper to
the thrown itself" Grangeville
now is the largest town of the
Prairie and almost all business
enterprises are fully represented.
Denver, situate about the CEN
ter of the Prairie, eight miles
from Grangeville. was born in
1892 and has grown rapidly con-
sidering the difficulties she has
had to overcome, both natural
and artificial; and to-day is
numbered as one Of THE towns
of Camas Prairie.
Cottonwood is one of the old
est points on the Prairie and is
situated on its north edge, on the
only stage and wagon road to the
Prairie, In the past she has
been the resting point for all
teams going to Denver, Grange
vile, Mount Idaho and the mines,
and has always been admitted
as occupying the Golden Gate"
to the Prairie. Situate ON the
Cottonwood creek, she not only
has an abundance of excellent
water, but in the main street of
the town is spring from which
stock has been watered for years
even in the driest season. Near
ly all lumber, wood and the like
are hauled from the immediate
vicinity of the town to the other
towns and the entire Prairie, all
such by necessity passing through
the main street of the town.
North of the town lies the great
reservation which some day is
destined to place Cottonwood in
center of wonderfully produc-
tive country. When this reserva-
ton is opened for settlement no
town offers better headquarters
for intending settlers than Cot
tonwood-both for supplies and
the easy reach of all the best
lands. Timber is abundant and
is within two miles of the town.
Six saw mills partially supply
the demand for lumber, which is
of better grade than is generally
found at the mills Of the Palouse
and Potlatch countries. Rough
lumber costs $40 per thousand
at the mills and is easily hauled
from all sites.
In the past almost tile entire
attention of the settler was given
to the raising of stock, and large
bands of horses, cattle, sheep and
hogs are annually shipped from
this Prairie. The hay and grain
raised is fed to cattle and they
in turn driven to market. Az
most all hogs, cattle, sheep and
horses sold from the Prairie are
driven to Cottonwood and there
sold to middlemen who derive
their profit by driving to Lewis
ton, Dayton, Moscow and Walla

CAMAS PRAIRIE.
It's Location, Towns and
Resources.

The great Camas Prairie, in
Idaho county, idaho, occupies q
space between the Salmon and
Clearwater rivers, the Nez Perce
reservation and about the 9th
standard parallel, having an area
of 100000 acres, and is undoubt-
edly one of the richest and most
productive portions of Idaho.
It's soil yields annually an abun-
dant harvest of cereals, and fruits
of the harder varieties grow to
perfection. Timothy is of natur-
al growth, and when once. set,
never runs out; yielding from
one to four tons to the acre annu-
ally, Fields that have thus
been sown for years give as much
yield per acre as newly sown
land,
Along the low bars of the Sal
mon and Clearwater rivers are
grown unlimited supplies of APP
ricots, peaches and grapes, as
we'll as the harder varieties OF
fruits, The altitude of these
rivers being about 1000 feet less
than that of Camas Prairie, gives
to the orchards, gardens and
vineyards along their margins a
market several weeks in advance
Of the Prairie,
The farm lands Of the Camas
Prairie are black loan, similBg
to the Potlatch and Palouse
countries.
The climate, Typographical
and geological features of the two
regions are identical, being only
marked by the great dividing
boundary of the Clearwater riv-
er. The Camas Prairie, however
is more@ level and more easily
farmed than either the Potlatch
Or Phlouse countries and with
proper cultivation yields fully as
well. The prices of lind in the
Potlatch and Palouse countries
vary from $25 to $75 per acre.
while equally good land on Cam
as Prairie sells at from $40 to $40
per aare.
The only advantage either OF
the above regions have over Cam
as Prairie is their superior rail
road facilities. Several surveys
have been made by both the I'm
ion and Northern Pacific compa,
nies and excellent routes have
been secured by both lines to the
Prairie, so that it is but a ques-
ton of tiple when the people ot
Camas Prairie will stand on foot.

Saving a Sparrow.

An authentic incident in the areer Of
General Robert E Lee IS told as an EVIL
dence Of his sweetness of disposition and
natural kindliness. One day he was in
speeding the batteries over the lines be-
low the city of Richmond, and the sol
diers had gathered in a group to vel
come him. This action drew upon them
the fire of the Union guns. .
The general faced about and advise.
the men to so under shelter. But he
did not de this himself. Walking on,
although in apparent danger, he picked
up and replaced an uniedsed sparrow
which had fallen from its nest near by.
The act was instructive, but perhaps
indicates a really higher endowment
than ability to conduct notable cam
paigns-Youth's Companion

There was a young girl in Racine,
Whose age was but Just seventeen,
But the citizens said
She could make the best bread
For she shortened it with COTTOLENE.'
A restaurant keeper named Green,
Has the biggest trade ever was seen,
For all know he makes
His pastry and cakes
With the lard substitute COTTOLENE."
A famous society Queen,
Who practical cook long has been,
Says she's very we'll sue
There is nothing SO par.
AS the shortening called CoTrOLENE."
The wives that are careful and keen,
Who like their food wholesome and clean,
Frying oysters or fish,
Eggs, or similar dish,
AS fat always use g CoTTOLENE.'
Now from these few verses you'll CLEAN,
The purport of what the lines mean;
That for shortening pies,
And all pastry likewise,
There is nothing excels g CoTToLENE.'

Mrs. MiIIiOn's Ride.

When Mrs. Million goes to ride she travels
forth in state,
Her horses, full of fire and pride, go prancing
from the gate;
But all the beauties of the day she views with
languid eye,
Her flesh in weakness wastes away, her voice
is but sigh.
For Mrs. Million is in an advanced stage of
catarrh, and all the luXures that wealth can
buy fail to give her comfort. She envies her
rosy waiting maid, and would give all her
riches for that young woman's pure breath
and blooming health Now, if some true and
disin terested friend would advise Mrs. Mill
ion OF the wonderful merits of DR.. Sage's Ca
tarrh Remedy, she would learn that her case
is not past help. $500 reward is offered by the
manufacturers for a case of catarrh in the
head which they cannot cure.

"Why," she said, ''for years alter l suffered
from the worst form of dyspepsia, with gas
and fermentation of food and terrible spasms
that seemed TO start at the stomach and rise
to the head.
"Even the lightest food caused great pain
and distress after eating, and 1 also suffer ed
with great exhaustion, dizziness of the head,
and weakness of the limbs so that | could
scarcely stand my feet.
''But l am now completely cured by the use
of DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, and take pleasure in giving my ex-
perience to the public in order that other
sufferers may be cured as / have BEEN"
Look out for such troubles in the begin
ming. Now, in the spring, when everybody is
certain to be less out of order and
needs spring medicine, take DR.. Greene's
NervUra blood and nerve remedy immediate
ly, for it is the best and surest of all spring
medicines. II will invigorate the blood,
strengthen the nerves and give you perfect
digestion and regular action of liver, kidneys
and bowels. All druggist keep it for $1.O0,and
it is purely vegetable and harmless.
1t is the great remedy recommended by
doctors for spring debility and diseases be-
cause it is the discovery and prescription of
the we'll known physician, DR.. Greene of "a
Temple Place, Boston, Mass, the successful
specialist in curing nervous and chronic dis
eases. The doctor can be consulted without

NAUGHTY PARROT.

A Pittsburger who spent part of
last summer in England tells an Incl
dent which sadly disturbed the relig-
ious peace of a parish in Penzance,
says the Pittsburgh Chronicle.
a maiden lady of that town owned
a parrot which somehow acquired
the disagreeable habit of observing at
frequent intervals:
Il wish the old lady would die.''
This annoyed the birds owner, who
spoke TO her curate about it,
II think We can rectify the NATTER
replied the good man. III also have a
parrot, and he is a righteous bird,
having been brought up in the way he
should go. I will lend you my par
rot, and [ trust his influence will re-
form that depraved bird of yours.''
The curate's parrot was placed in
the same room with the wicked one,
and as soon as the two had become
accustomed to each other the bad bird
remarked:
81 wish the old lady would die.n
Whereupon the clergyman's bird
rolled up his eyes and in solemn ac-
cents added:
eve beseech thee to hear us, good
Lord!''
The story got out at the parish, and
for several Sundays it was necessary
to omit the litany at the church SER
vices.
