STATE LAND SELECTIONS.
Shore Lines of Henry and
Payette Lake Covered.
Boise Statesmi

The state is just completing some
important selections of lands under
the congressional grants. Some of
these lands are agricultural and
OF theirs are covered with timber.
There are two lists, one in Ere
mont county, and the other in
Boise county. The Fremont
county lands are in the vicinity of
Henry's lake and cover all the
shores of that body of water not
previously taken up by settlers.
The Boise county selections are
taken for timber. They cover all
the meanderings of Payette lake
with the exception of some portions
claimed by settlers.
The lands in Fremont county
were selected by G. II. Moon and
w. Il. Stui1icbeam, appointed by
the land board for the purpose,
while the lands in Boise county
were selected by Selector Taylor.
The Boise county list, embracing
5000 acres, has been filed in the
Boise land office, and Chief Clerk
Arney will today file the Fremont
county list, covering 1000 acres,
in the land Office at Blaekfoot.
Mr.. Arney will also file at Black
foot the papers and maps for with
drawal of the $500 acres of land
for the Marysville Land company
under the Carey act in accordance
with the terms of the agreement
recently made between the COM
pany and the board.

The Grangeville brass band
started. for Cottonwood this morn
ing TO act as escort to the return

There was rumor around the
city last night to the effect that
the boys had started last night,
but telephone advices proved this
to be erroneous. The latest au-
thentic report is to the effect that
fourteen of the members of Com

Lewiston for Cottonwood. They
were rendered a fine reception,
which, was most enjoyable in every
particular, at Lewiston last night.
1t is understood that three re-
manned in Lewiston and will come

been rendered to our committee by
the Lewiston people and they, as
well as the boys, have had every
attention paid to them that was
possible. The soldiers who are en-

If you will look at the new
map of Idaho you will observe,
in the very center of the state,
a vast territory extending
from near the Ceur d Alene
mountains on the north to near
the summit of the Saw Tooth
range on the south, and from
the state of Montana on the
east to the state of Oregon on
the west. This vast extent of
territory is Idaho county, and
geographically it is larger than
most of the New England
States. It is the largest tract
of virgin land in all the West;
there is not a railroad within
its borders, and yet this vast
country contains an empire of
agricultural and mineral
wealth. Camas Prairie is a
veritable garden spot-it is
twenty five miles wide and
thirty.6ve miles long, and
every foot of it is capable of
cultivation. The soil is rich
black loan, averaging three
feet in depth, and its annual
crop of wheat, barley, oats,
rye and hay is something mar
velous. Through this coun.
try runs the Clearwater and
the Salmon rivers, with their
branches. The annual rain
fall is so abundant and so dis
tributed through the seasons
that irrigation is unknown and
unheard of. The low lands
along the Clearwater and Sal
mon are literally lined with
magnificent fruit ranches, the
upper prairie lands being de-
voted exclusively to the Ger,
eals. 1t is in all respects an
ideal home for the farmer
though scarcely more than
one.tenth of this magnificent
farming land is under cultiva
ton. 1t is only within the
past three years that the won
derful resources of this agri
cultural region were made
known to the world. Two
railroads are now racing to
reach Camas Prairie, which
promises in the near future tc
rival the famous Palouse belt
But if Idaho county is rich
in her agricultural lands, sht
is even richer in her mount
aims of magnificent timber
lands. There is located in thu
very heart of this county, ane
in fact constituting nearly one
half of its territory, the famou
Bitter Root forest reserve-eX
tending from near the nortl
fork of the Clearwater to tn,
Salmon, and from the cente
of the county to the summit o
the Bitter Root range q
mountains. 1t is estimates
that there are within the boz
ders of this reserve about 4,
100000 acres of timber land
This timber consists principal
ly of yellow and white pine
fir and tamarack-proportior
al in the order named. ThrougI
this reserve, or skirting it
borders, are the north, middl
and south forks of the Clear
water, and the Salmon rive
flows along its southern boz
der. This vast timber LAM
