ALL is WELL
AT MEADOWS

Mr.. R. 7. Herndon, who recently
purchased the Meadows townsite, is
in Weiser for stay Of several days.
He reports that number of new
buildings will be erected at the town
as soon as lumber can be easily hauled
The roads are bad at present and
builders deem it good policy to wait
until they improve. Meadows is en-
joying great business activity and
promises to grow into very import
ant town with great rapidity. Mr..
Herndon has secured an option on the
Sampson grant, West Fork, Viola,
and other mines on Rapid river from
the Irwins and has just been down
there arranging for the erection OF
the three stamp mill and concentratol
which have been there for sometime
but have never been set up. This
will be simply to test the properties
as larger plant will be secured al
soon as the values have been demon
strated.

pleasure in answering inquiries about
the country. Any eastern reader is
invited to write them for informa-
ton. Letters to any of our local
business or professional men will
unquestionably be promptly replied
to. Their names can be found in
our advertising columns. 1t is al
ways proper to enclose stamp for
reply. Our people both in town and
country are proud of the agricultural
possibilities here, and give cordial
welcome to all worthy new corners.

Change in Route Needed.

We are informed that by slight
change in the free rural mail delivery
route some five or six families
would be given the benefit of the
service with but the addition of a
mile to the present distance. The
Signal suggests that Messrs. Morris,
Halleck, West, Drain and others in
terested send a small petition to the
department asking for the change,
which with the endorsement of Post
master Bruce will undoubtedly secure
the desired change.

WeSer Boys Bright Prospects

Ira Hendricks and brothers, who
own Marshall Lake claims of excep-
tional promise, will take small mill
to that camp as soon as the sheep
shearing season is over. If the
claims yield as we'll as expected the
boys may permanently retire at the
close of this season from the wool
harvesting business.

Missing Box.

w. w. Pritchett has been delayed
in opening his planning mill on ac-
count of missing box of parts OF
machinery. The transportation com
pany at San Francisco lost it in load
ing someway, and by this time i
may be in China or Japan. The
delay is very annoying, but may b'
Strengthened out in a short time.

Townsite Crew Tackled an Untravelei
Route.
Would Make Good Summer Cutoff but Should
Be Stunned Now.

The crew sent out from Weise: IN
charge OF General Manager Meyer,
by the Thunder Mt. Placer Mining
Co., is having hard trip and is max
ing slow progress on account OF having
left the regular travelled course to taks
the untraveled cutoff over Lake Fork
divide. Mr.. Meyer writes the Signal
as follows:
Lake Fork, II miles above Lardo.
May 9th.
Editor Weiser Signal;
Dear Sir:-You will observe by the
address on this letter that we are on
the Lardo trail and at present, We
are gettiag along very we'll.
There are about 18 men and 20
horses here and we expect to have
the trail open in two or three days,
DC we have only about five miles more
snow to break; then we strike bare
ground clear to the South Fork OF the
Salmon.
We first attempted to 60 up tho
south branch of the Lake Fork, cross
the summit and down Fitz Thumb
creek to the Salmon. Mr.. Ned Hin
selwood and myself left the "Goat
Llcks" at the forks of tie Lake Fork
on last Tuesday morning and wersS 20
the South Fork of Salmon river via
Fitz Thumb creek. We found the
Salmon river much lower than we had
expected and we can easily cross 1t
with horses. Owing to continuous
snow and rain, which made snow
shoeing very tiresome, it took US four
days to make the trip to South Fork
and return. On returning, we found
I that the others had broken the trail

Letters of Iuquiry Invited From Eastern
Farmers and Home seekers.

In new and productive farming
country land values constantly in
crease, and instances of fortunes be-
ing gained by securing cheap land
and holding to it while the country
developed, are common to every
American. This opportunity is now
open here, and the wise farmer in the
east is anxious to secure some of it
for himself and his sons. The Sig
nal has observed the growth of COM
munities in Utah, Colorado and Cali
fornia, where conditions are similar
to those now existing at Weiser, and
if history repeats itself it can safely
be predicted that land in this valley
will increase in value at the rate of
$40. 90 per acre per year until it
commands from 800 to $500 an
acre The reason is plain. 1t will
yield returns sufficient to pay good
interest on such an investment. The
small amount of valley land suscep-
tible of irrigation in this arid state
will be called upon to furnish food
for the workers in mines and mills in
ever-increasing numbers. The herds
and focks of the range Will always
need alfalfa, and it has also beer
demonstrated that it can be fed or
the ranch with even greater profit t(
the raiser. Idaho fruit is of sucf
superior quality that it has the whole
world for market, and an acre O.
"No. 1" apples, peaches, pears, etc.
will bring the intelligent orchards
more clean money than an eastern
quarter section. No man who ha
experienced the frequent visitation
of drouths and hot winds in the eas
can fail to find here cause for thank
fulness Under a proper irrigatlo
system he can make it rain when b
pleases. Instead of sitting around
drouth- stricken home looking u
wistfully for sign of cloud he

shovel and rubber boots directing til
pure snow water from the mountain
to the crop that needs it the mos
Formerly, when he wanted rain

for rain were made, or swore a blI

spirit of humility and thankfulnes

Weiser. Land is cheap here, t.
cheap in fact. Prices vary from s.
to $75 an acre. But you can't Ve
well pay too much for it. Te
