BaImy Evenings are Charming.

Do Idahoans appreciate the de-
lightful climate in which they live?
Do they realize that they could
travel the world over and in but few
places, if at all, find its equal?
These are questions that often
come to the mind of visitors after
having the pleasure of spending an
evening here, where the air is SO
cool ana balmy that they want to
sit and drink in the delightful
elixir for endless time.
4 Such summer evenings, The poet
has written of the nights of Italy
and told in verse and song of the
enchantment of a sail in the gondo-
las after the stars have begun their
watch and filled the heavens with
a mellowness that awakens in the
soul that desire for flight out
among them to solve their mys-
teries. they have pictured the
e%nticing delightfulness of evening
time along the Rhine, where the
picturesque scenery as it is colored
by the soft glow of the crescent
moon and myriad stars appeals to
the innermost thoughts and makes
the impression that of all nights the
nights there are the best.
But in the sunny CLINE of any
land can there oe a night more
lovely than the nights which now
entIce the citizens of Boise, the
Beautiful, out under the blinking
stars, where they can breathe the
cool, invigorating air mot to their
hearts content, because they can
never get enough of its delicious
ness.
No matter how warm the Gay, as
soon as the sun sinks behind the
western hills a GOODNESS follows the
fading light which makes a night
that can not be surpassed.
such a nightg' the visimE ex-
claims enraptured- Such ARR
He is filled with new life. The
night reaches his inmostS being and
stIrs every sluggish thing there
He looks about him and wonders il
those who have these nights for
themselves realize their treasure. -

The Price Of Apples.

sew York state growers of apples
are refusing SO a barrel for their Bald
wins and greetings are held at still
higher price. as New York paper con-
cludes, being scarcer.
1t seems to be a question of supply
the demand is always the same and
the supply is short. The price for peo-
pie in Wisconsin for York State apples
is therefore likely to run to an amazing
figure; for there VIII be the cost OF
transportation and the profits for the
dealers two profits at least after the
grower is satisfied; so it looks as il
apples from New York will be selling
around IS a barrel and 81 peck before
the end of the year.
