The growth Of Kootenai county DIR

due 10 the opening Of an Indian reser-
walton that formed part Of the county.
II is doubtful II any state in the union
can boast Of having county capable Of
doubling its population IN five years.
yet this is the record OF K0Otenai.

the county was 81 .2S2. O39.S5. while ia
1900 il was s34ls. $50 81, AN increase of

OF school districts ia the county was but
80 with but 1909 children Of school age.
while In 1900 the number OF districts
was increased TO 6l, with a total of
2 $50 children of school age. The
amounts expended for school purpnrses
Is even more striking. In 1895, the total
amount expended for school purposes
was but sI7,757bl. OF this amount
