Hon. James Nelson, twice sent to
the Legislature from Latah county,
Idaho, has contributed the following
article for the consideration OF the pros
pective settler. The article was pre-
pared for publication in the pamphlet
just issued at this Office for distribu-
ion at Portland. The article is worthy
careful consideration and well worth
sending east to your friends. In the
article Mr.. Nelson says:
Among sections especially favored
by nature, the Potlatch country easily
takes high place, and no section can
show better climate, richer soil, more
variety # products, larger yield pei
acre or better quality Of products,
and the land has been titled for SO
years without single failure which is
the best accommodation that can be
given. The Potlatch country lies
north OF the Clearwater river with the
Palouse river on the north, the Palouse
country on the west and the white pine
belt on the east. 1t is generally sub
divided into the Big Potlatch, Little
Potlatch, American, Big Bear, Little
Bear, Texas Burnt and Driscoll ridges,
Cedar Creek and Boulder Creek coun-
tries and number OF smaller places,
covering an ear OF something like IA
townships. The land is mostly rolling
prairie with some canyons and some
scattered timber-enough for fire wooc
for the next twenty years.
The soil is rich clay loan under
laid with basalt and granite formation
and varies from Q feet in places to {
depth Of 40 feet. The particles of the

toll are very fine, giving it a tendency
so retain moisture for long time. The
rolling character Of the land produces
perfect condition for drainage, and the
soil is of such nature that it does not
wash as is the case with lighter, looser
soils.
The climate is delightful, with no
excessive heat or cold. Rain enough
to produce the best Of crops and gen
orally show enough for good sleighing
in the winter. Cyclones and tomatoes
are unknown. The country is well
watered with numerous streams which
flow through the land, and springs are
found in the draws and by sinking
wells good water can be found at a
moderate depth anywhere.
Farming, fruit raising, dairying and
stock raising are the principal occupa-
tons, also the numbering industry is
rapidly coming to the front. The
wheat crop Of this section cannot be
excelled as to quantity and quality, and
oats and barley do equally well.
Grasses OF all kinds do fine and great
crops Of hay are produced. 1t has
been demonstrated that alfalfa will
grow we'll without irrigation and pro-
duce two crops of hay and make fine
fall pasture after the second crop has
been harvested. Among the different
grasses which have been grown are
red and white clover, timothy, orchard
tall meadow oat grass, English rye
grass, Kentucky blue grass, red top
bromus nemis and meadow fescue, al
of which thrive and produce good crops
of hay and seed. Garden truck does
especially well and cannot be ex
celled. Corn and beans yield wonder
