STATE FRUIT INSPECTOR

irie Trees are All Right.

. S. G. IsAman, horticultural in
spector of District No. 2, compris
. ing the cou mites Of Nez Perez, Ida

shone, who has been on the Prai
RE for several days examining
fruit trees for pests and parasites
reports that the trees in this county
are free fro m all complaints, ex.
cept q few indications of blister.
mite on the leaves of pear trees
and occasional traces Of scab on ap-
pie trees. He says that outside OF
Lewiston he has found neither
scale, scab nor parasite Of any con-
sequence. He particularly re-
quests the Press to state that in
planting trees or orchards care
should be taken to select the trees
from nurseries in section not in
fected with scales. While he ia a
Lewiston mi IAN, he officially advises
farmers and others of Camas Prai-
rie to purchase their trees and
shrubs from nurseries where there
are no scale-infested trees, and
therefore he would discourage for
the present he purchase of stock
from Lewiston nurseries.
In talking to the Press Mr.. Isa-
man stated that the Camas Prairie
country was eminently adapted to
successful fr nit culture. He found
absolutely nothing whatever the
matter with any of the trees in this
section except that in too many in
stances they were suffering from
neglect. He thinks that Camas |
Prairie is prominently a fruit |
country, more SO than the Potlatch |
or Palouse. He recommended us |
to advise the people to pay partic-
ular attention to the planting and
Of winter apples, for
which there is a fine market both
at home and in the mines, and for
export. AS an instance of what
the cultivation of fruit will do for
q thrifty farrn er in this section, he
cited us to q statement made to
him by a nearby farmer that $40
worth of fruit was sold last year
of Of one cherry tree Of the Queen
Anne variety. "Now", said the
gentleman, 9 there is ample room
IN one acre Of land for 100 cherry
trees, and you can figure out the
,alue of the product on that basis.
This cherry tree, by the way, was
,rown on tho experimental farm,
within sight of Grangeville. It
would also DO as we'll for you to ,
ell the people that if their trees
re afflicted with diseases unknown
o them, they will do well to cor :
espond with me, stating the par |
iculars as fully as possible, and l 6
will cheerfully advise them as to J
he method of treatment to the !
'est of my ability.

While the P. & /. N. officials
have not authorized the statement,
the Signal feels safe in saying that
the Seven Devils branch of the p.

The movements of the company
plainly indicate this to be the in
tention. This move means much
to the road in an economical way,
the route being much better in
grade, much less expensive and
shorter. At least % miles Of branch
line will be saved, which means the
retaining Of 90 much invested cap
ital and the permanent economy
Of future operating expenses is q
most important item. It will make
the distance by rail from Weiser
to Seven Devils five or six miles
longer.
Chief Engineer Moore is we'll

Moore says it 10 an ideal line, and
nowhere a. yet has exceeded one

being found in Weiser canyon be-
tween Council and Price valley.
The right Of way ON this portion Of
the line is now being cleared. As
the enterprise progresses it be-
comes more and more patent that
it will be the greatest boon the
State has enjoyed for some time.
The giving OF Warren, Long Val

GOOD NEWS FROM THEFR0NT

! We are again indebted to Mrs
James Edwards for good news from
her son Jesse. It is dated Manila
July 7, 1899, and after telling some
Iprivate family news, goes on to say;
II heard yesterday that the Idaho
regiment had been ordered to pre-.
pare to go home ON the Grant with
the North Dakotas and the Wyom.

before we 60 on account of the
amount Of work that has to be
done in strengthening out papers.
The Grant is not . very fast boat;
it will probably take q full month
for the voyage. Then we are likely
to be in San Francisco two or three
weeks before We are discharged. If
everything goes right we will be
out of service two months from
now. That is not q very long
time, if one considers how quickly
time has passed since we enlisted.
We will have good company going
back; the North Dakota are full
regiment, the Wyomings are one
battalion and the Idahos two
batallions. I have heard that the
Grant is one Of the best Of the gov
eminent transports; We will hence
60 back . little better than we.
came. It is said the transports
carrying volunteers home will stop
at Yokohama and Nagaski.
We did not have as noisy q
Fourth Of July as the Grangeville
people probably had, but still there
was quite q celebration. Plenty of
flags were to be seen. Every
saloon on the Escolta was deco

Gotta was very gay. At 10 O'Clock

not look very inviting. At noon

the Sixth artillery there; each fired |
forty-five guns. Before they got

HarpSter Mining Excitement


Il. G. Oliver, of Harpster. in
forms us of great excitement in
that section consequent upon the
discovery last week of quartz on
wall creek, about two miles above
Jake Riebold's place, the assay Of
ore from the new strike showing
values of $500 per ton in gold.
Those who have ever been over the
Elk City road will have noticed
that there is an immense outcrop
OF quartz on Corral hill, and while
1t has generally been regarded as
bull quartz, there is no reason why
it should not contain one or more
pockets or chimneys which would
pay to mine. The formation is all
right and nobody need be surprised
to hear that prospectors have got
onto good thing there. The north
slope of Big Badly at the SWITCH
back, is also likely to be the scene
OF excitement if given a more
thorough prospecting than it has
ever had in the past, as there is
another immense outcrop there.
Gold is where you find it, and it
don't 90 nowadays to take too
much for granted. The mineral
may have leached out of those
mammoth lodges after ages of ex.
posure to the disintegrating influ-
ences OF the atmosphere, and it is
among the probabilities that a lit
tie development work may show
up good things under the surface.
AT any rate, several people left
drangeville last week for the scene
OF the new strike.
