SPOKANE FOLKS
CAMPING IN
COLONIES

Camping out is one of the sum
mer pleasures open to the Spo
kaneite who cannot afford a sum
mer home or a cottage by lake
This habit has grown wonderfully
in the past few years and now
there is no way by which an &C
curate statement of the number OF
campers now out of Spokane can
be made. Trolley lines make camp
ing in this country both cheap and
convenient.
Favorite resorts are the various
lakes within easy reaching distance
of the city-Sucker, Clear, Hayden,
Newman, Liberty, Loon, Silver,
Medical and Occur d'Alene. The
more accessible of these lakes sees
the all-summer camp of number
of families, the head of which
makes the run to and from town
each day. This is in general the
character of the arrangements at
Liberty and Medical lakes.
The almost universal custom of
taking two weeks vacation makes
it possible for a family to camp at
any of the lakes for the time al
lowed from business posts. The
expense is not very great and an
outfit is within reach of nearly
every provident man.
One of two methods Is usually
followed by the would-be camper.
There is little or no renting of
tents from the stores. Instead of
an out and out rent, the camper
purchases a tent and at the end of
the season sells it back to the es-
adjustment for a price less than
paid for by the amount of damage
done to the tent. A new 10x12
tent can be bought for $7.75, and
If returned in good condition will
bring at least half of the original
purchase price.
Many owners of lands near the
lakes do regular business of fur
nishing a real furnished" tent and
outfit for S. a week. These have a
floor and all the camp utensils
necessary for running a summer
establishment. Many prefer this
plan to that of carting cots, camp
stoves and other accessories to
and from the city. These "colo-
MES" usually have, for instance,
water piped through the streets of
the tented town and wood is haul
ed to the doors.
