Music boxes and blue light are two of
the latest things in the line of
,n,esthetics. The music boxes do not
reduce pain or render tho patients in
sensible. but, according to Professor
Redard of Geneva. they do take away
certain III effects that often accompany
IN. use Of anaesthetics. 1t is a we'll
known fact that external impressions
received during the period of somnol-
ence have great bearing On the dreams.
From this Professor Redard Conceded
the idea of utilizing music. 1t was
found that the music had a tendency

Mines, Mills and Mining.

Custer county is one of the richest mining sections in the world
but at present it needs better transportation, and capital to develop
its rich mining districts. In some states and territories mining
ana agriculture, though progressing hand in hand, are yet nearly
independent of each other. The farmers market is widened nv
the miner, to be sure. but not relying on home consumption ex-
clusively, he can exist and prosper, but in this county the miner
and farmer depend upon each other to a great extent. Let US for
a moment call the attention of the capitalist to some of the most
important mining districts and mines in the county, viz Mackay.
with its great copper mines; Morgan creek; Garden creek lead and
silver mines; Bayhorse district with it's famous Ramshorn. Skvlark
and dozens of rich ead-silver and gold bearing mines: Poverty
Flat; Centennial Flat; East Fork; Clayton; Slate creek; Thompson
creek; Robinson Bar; Stanley Basin, with placer and quartz; Fish
er gold mines; Sheep Mountain and Seafoam, with their hundreds
OF rich lead-silver mines; Loon creek, placer and gold quartz min.
es; Washington Basin gold mines; and the celebrated Yankee Fork
district, which is gold-silver ores, and embraces within its confines
hundred OF mines, the most prominent producers at this time being
the Lucky Boy and Yankee Fork. Custer county also has several
quartz mills and smelters-fve quartz mills at Custer; a dredge
ooat and mill at Stanley; a smelter at Clayton ;concentrator at Bav-
horse, and a new 300 ton smelter at Mackay. In Custer county has
nearly 5000 located mining claims, and yet the vast region has not
been half prospected.

Agriculture and Stock-Raising.

Agriculture ably supplements the mining industry in enrichine
this county. The Salmon river, rising in the Sawtooth mountains
north of Wood river, enters on it's southwestern border, and pur-
suing a zigzag course in a general north-easterly direction, receiv,
|es the waters of ten large creeks besides the East Fork. These
streams, together with Lost river and it's tributaries, flow through
thousand of acres of arabic land still uncultivated. Since the hand
OF man IS forced to supply what nature %wthholds, irrigation takes
tie place of rain; and the water that annually goes to waste would
make verdant fruitful valleys out of deserts, would convert the
the silence OF desolahon into the sounds from many homes. Agri-
culture, like all other industries OF the county, is in its infancy.
The time is not distant when large irrigating canals will be taken
out OF Salmon river, which has an endless water supply, and many
thousands OF acres OF rich sagebrush land along the river will be
reclaimed. The farms of this county produce wonderful yields of
hay, oats, wheat, potatoes, etc, per acre, and large crops are
harvested each year.
Stock-growing is one OF leading industries of the county. and
with the usually mild winters in the valleys and excellent summer
ranges, has become a very remunerative industry, and the county
each year derives its largest amount of revenues in the way of
taxes each year from the stock growers.
The silver messenger. (Challis, Idaho) 1890-1912, 1905-10-31
Climate, Timber, School, Etc.

The climate of Custer county is very delightful-light snowfall
IN the valleys; short winters and most charming winters. AT
Challls, with an elevation of 400 feet, sleighrides are we'll nigh
impossible. Creditable to our county is our plethoric school fund.
Each district has its school building and wellpaid teacher. At
Challis the high school studies are taught.
PROBABLY one-fourth OF the mountainous territory of this county
Is heavily timbered with spruce, fir and pine.
With large tracts OF farming and grazing land unculivated; with
o list OF taxable property annually l~engthening with giant strides;
WIN increasing revenue and decreasing taxation; with railroad
building; with good schools and churches, and little crime: with
stock-ranges of luxurious vegetation; with an admirable climate
favorable to health; with a fertile soil, rich in fruitful products:
ana with a vast mineral wealth in gold. silver copper, lead, iron
and the precious metalA Custer county is blessed with natural
gifts and advantages that will prove it's brief though ' gorous ex
lstence to have been but = puay part of los progressive areer.

Custer county,, Idaho, offers vast Inducements to settlers an

worked in Stanley Basin, on what is now our western border. and
In 1870 other pIacers we're discovered and yielded handsomely. but
