ing, are better appreciated
through experience than des-
cription. Probably one-fourth
of the mountainous territory of
this county is heavily timbered
with spruce, fir, pine, and occas-
ional mahogany. In all the
benefits of abundant wood and
water, Custer is no exception to
the other counties in Idaho.
/ A general recapitulation of the
foregoing shows that Custer
county has added to the wealth
of the world 81, 350,000 in gold
from its placers; and from its
quartz mines the large sum of
So, 800, 900 in gold and silver at
assay value. With but two
smelters in operation a few
months, and one mill at continu-
GUS work, this years production
will approximate 81, 500, 000;while
new works finished and others
planned will increase this amount
by one-half in 1885. The old
mines in the county show perm
anancy, and new ones are dis
covered every season. The val
ue of stock on it's ranges easily
represents the worth of 1850, 900.
The value of its agricultural pro
ducts for 1884 will equal $l75,
600; an amount that will be doub-
led in a few years. It's popula-
ton has steadily grown until il
reaches about 1000.
With large tracts of farming
and grazing land uncultivated;
with a list of taxable property
annually lengthening with giant
strides; with increasing revenue
and decreasing taxation. with
good schools, and little crime
with stock ranges of luxurious
vegetation; with an admirable
climate favorable to health; with
a fart;Ia coil rich in fruitful nro
ducts; with a vast mineral wealth
in lead and iron, copper and the
precious metals-Custer county
is blessed with natural gifts ant
advantages that will prove its
brief though vigorous existence
to have been but puny part o.
its progressive career.
