BITTER ROOT CROPS.
Big Grain Crop-Lots of Hay Of Excel
ent Quality Darby Orchards
Hard to Beat.

The Bitter Root valley is one of the
few localities in this broad land that
IS blessed with splendid crop this
season. The hay is all up and it is The
finest ever gathered anywhere. Not a
drop of rain sullied its brightness and
except in rare instances a heavy yield
IS reported. A fair price too, will re-
ward the grass growers. Around Vic
tor some have hauled the hay from the
shock and found ready market at $40
per ton for timothy and $50 for timo-
thy and clover. The grain crop will
be the best in years and the dealers
are altering cent a pound for oats.
The berry crops have been excellent,
but the apple crop is short. Good
judges estimate that the apple crop
from Hamilton north will not average
one quarter the usual yield. From
Grantsdale up the crop is good and
around Darby the orchards are teen-
ing with as fine an apple crop as can
be found in any country.
