Ravines or Coulees

that the small stream so often seen
'meandering alohg at the bottom Of
the ravine has carried away the soil
that once filled the space. The raw
ines grow longer and wider in the
same way that they were started. The
water falling over the sides of the
ravine cuts channel, when it rains
again the channel is cut deeper and
the ravines grow longer and wider
until we find them varying from small
prairie bitches with banks one or.
two feet high to great gorges one-half
mile wide and extending several miles
in.length with banks sometimes steep
and sometimes gently sloping.
It is in these ravines that one sees
the most beautiful scenery of the
prairies. Their sides are always dec
Grated with grasses and shrubbery-
regular cliff societies of shrubs and
trees are seen far up the bank. In
June when the roses are in blossom
a prettier sight is not presented any
where; altho the ravine is often dry,
hence the term dry run, yet often the
bottom of it is dotted with pools Of
water which act as mirrors and re-
fleet the beautiful scenes on the bank.
Litchens and fungus growths are
found in abundance on and around
the rocks. Tiny black coal veins are
seen here too. These add interest to
the beautiful scenery
In the winter the ravines drift full
of snow and form an almost impas.
sable barrier for the travellers. In the
spring long after the snow has dis
appeared from the level, banks Of
snow are found on the shaded hooks
OF the ravines.

That in North Dakota there are de-
viations which break the 'inonotony
Of level landscape and furnishes
real scenes of natural wonder where
the imaginative mind may revel is
not generally known. People not
acquainted with this country picture
1t as vast expanse of unbroken
prairie. This is q wrong idea for al
tho we have no scenery which rivals
the picturesque grandeur of q noun
famous region we have scenery var
led and beautiful At all times of the
year nature here wears a garb Of
beauty. In the spring the prairie is
carpeted with green and decorated
with pink and white anemonaes, in,
the summer it is veritable garden
Of variously colored flowers and in
the winter it is a beautiful expanse
Of sparkling, glittering wilderness. The
most noticeable features that break
this foor-like expanse are the nu-
merous troughs that cut thru the
land. These troughs or valleys are
known by a variety Of names. Peo-
pie from the east speak of them as
ravines; people from the central
states call them dry runs, commonly,
however, they are spoken of as cou-
lees. They are a physical feature re-
sembling a gorge or canyon and some
biologists say they are of the same
origin.
Various theories are advanced in
regard their cause, one being that
they are grooves followed out by the
immense ice sheet which thousands
Of years ago covered our country;
another is that they are small val
leys belonging to a river system and

When the train got here Mr.. Ford
was for getting off, but Mr.. Luce
told him not to worry, that he knew
when they got to Standpoint. About
a mile and half out Ford satisfied
Luce that they had passed their
station and they ''held up" the

A deal was consummated by the
Bonner county commissioners last
week which will meet with the
appreciation of all her citizens.
The four-acre tract of land, on
which stands the fine new two-story
brick structure, and all the other
buildings and improvements, near
the Great Northern station, has
been purchased for a county poor
farm from Mr.. Hunt. An addi-
tional tract of land of twenty acres
adjoining this has been purchased,
making fine home for the coun.
tvs poor. This land has fine
lake and other water, sufficient in
volume to irrigate the tract. Elec-
trio lighting wires are already on
the place, and the purchase price
of this was secured at a very low
figure, only 81, 200, about what the
improvements would cost, getting
the land practically Free Sand

Editor Newport Miner-Allow me to
congratulate you on the fact that the
agitation of the matter of the Callspel
road in your paper has borne fruit, IN
that the powers that be have eased a
short grade on the Boiler hill of the old
road, taking out % per cent grade and
giving IL per cent in its place.
The balance of the road is a sea OF
mud in most places, which is all unnec-
essary, for by expanding a little time it
would be comparatively easy to turn
pike the road so that water would fall
into the cutters at each side, instead of
settling into the wheel tracks, there to
be churned up by every passing vehicle
till the mud is foot or more deep.
I was pleased to learn that Mr.. Tiger
had made a trip from his namesake
town to Newport over the road, which
shows that such trip is possible. 1t is
pleasant to learn that they have any
kind of road. But the next thing in
line is to get good road.
No one thing helps the prosperity of a
town more than series of good means
of transportation to all parts of the
country with which it is interdependent.
Newport has two railroads leading to
points east, west and south. She should
have two more connecting with the lower
river valley and Colville. And there
should be a series of wagon roads moi
less than 20 feet wide and on a maxi
mum grade leading in all directions
from the town. There ought to be &C
commodations for farmers teams aside
from the high-priced livery barns, ano
there should be rest rooms for farmers
wives at all stores.
The Commercial Club could not dc
better than to make the farmers of thu
Calispel country feel that the farmers
interests were considered at all times il

Gals of railroads and other corporate
interests should be dined, but thu

Good Medicine for Children.

The season for coughs and colds is now
at hand and too much care cannot be
used to protect the children. A child is
much more likely to contract diphtheria
or scarlet fever when he has cold.
The quicker you cure his cold the less
risk. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
the sole reliance of many mothers and
few of those who have tried it are will
ing to use any other. Mrs. F. F.
Starcher, of Ripley, ". Va says 81
have never used anything other than
Chamberlain Cough Remedy for my

H. w. Sparks, of Kettle Falls,
deputy state fruit inspector for
Stevens county, was county seat
business visitor Tuesday, He re-
ports an inspection Of $4,000 trees
last month, of which he condemned
700 and disinfected $4,000. Mr..
Sparks has spent many years in
the fruit business in Stevens county
and is enthusiastic over prospects
OF growth in the local fruit indus
try. The main trouble encountered
is the lack of knowledge as to what
varieties are best for certain soils.
Attitudes will not successfully grow
long-season fruit such as Ben Davis
and Newtown Pippins. The mat
ter of slope has not been conclu-
siyely proved in Stevens county,
although a strong sentiment fayors
west and north slopes. Cherries
on a north slope are success and
this industry is receiving a great
deal Of profitable attention. From
$500 to $500 an acre can be realized
from canning cherries and many
trees are being set. Stevens county
nursery stock is given the prefer
ence by many old time fruit grow
ers.- Outside stock is carefully
watched, and to Mr.. Sparks is due
the credit of keeping considerable
poor stock from being planted. The
size OF the county will not allow as
thorough an inspection Of all inn
portations as he desires. but the
information which he is able to
give to the many newcomers desir-
Gus OF entering the fruit business
will be of incalculable benefit to-
this great industry to which the
county's soil gives such great on
portunIty.--Colville Examiner.

Refund Offered 10 Lumbermen.

To share the lumber traffic with
the railroads which, on account of
having been enjoined by the fed
eral courts of Washington and Ore
gon from raising the rates accord
ing to the tariff put into effect
Nov. 1, four of the roads operating
in the Inland Empire that have
not been enjoined have decided to
refund the excess rate if the new
rates are not sustained by the
interstate commerce commission.
All lumber shippers Of Eastern
Washington will within a day or
two receive circular letter signed,
as representatives of their roads,
by George H. Martin, general
freight agent of the Spokane Inter-
national; J. H. Lothrop, general
freight agent of the Spokane & In.
land and Occur d'Alene & Spokane,
and R. F. Blackwell, vice. president
and general manager of the Idaho
& Washington Northern, which
proposes as follows:
Referring to the proceedings now
pending before the interstate COM
merce commission between the
lumber shippers and the railroads.
in which proceedings the reason
ableness of the present tariff rates
on eastbound lumber shipments is
involved, we desire to say that our
lines are not parties to the suit in
which the injunction was issued;
consequently to comply with the
law we are compelled to use the
new tariffs effective Nov. 1, 1907.
Ii, however, the interstate COM
merceI commission decides that the
new rates or any part of them are
unreasonable, and shall direct or
authorize such unreasonable excess
to be refunded, we will comply
with such order"
The purpose of this proposal, as
explained by the officials of the four
local lines, is to place them as
nearly as possible on an equal foot
ing with the Hill and Hartman
lines, Burlington route, Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul and eastern
connecting lines included in the.
federal injunction.
