Grain IS On The Move.

Word from Lewiston states
that both the Vollmer-C Clearwater
and Kettenbach grain companies
have resumed buying grain at all
points along the Clearwater and
Culdesac lines, except at the
tramways and Vollmer, and that
65 cents is being paid for wheat
and ST.. 90 for barley. It is also
stated that during the recent
close Of the grain market the
railroad people made prepara-
tions to relieve the situation as
rapidly as possible when the
market opened again and that
cars for the moving of the
wheat crop are now quite plenti-
full throughout the northwest,
from $50, 900 to ]. 900, 600 bushels
Of grain reaching coast points
daily. At this rate the grain
crop will soon be hauled out and
the money brought into the
country from its sale will do a
great deal to relieve the financial
situation and place conditions
back on their former footing.

In a runaway Monday evening
south of Lewiston Mrs. Fred
Mcintyre had both bones broken
in one leg. Her team became
scared and run through a wire
fence. Her mother had her
clothes badly torn in the wire
but escaped with slight bruises
while the baby was uninjured.
The injured lady had to stay for
two hours at the scene of the

A Northern Pacific engine
running between Wallace and
Burke blew up last Fridy killing
two men and mortally wounding
two others. Two of the men
were blown fully $50 feet up the
mountain side by the explosion.
Houses near the scene were
riddled with pieces of iron, while
a school house, filled with
children, about 100 feet away
was not injured at all. Low
water in the boiler probably
caused the explosion.

Railroad Bridges Near Finished.

Railroad Bridges Near Finished.
Work on the railroad bridges
between this place mad Ferdi-
nand is progressing rapidly and
a few more weeks will see
practically all the structures
completed. Bridge No. 49, just
north of town, will be finished
early next week. The structure
is 100 feet high and about 400
feet long and is the largest
wooden bridge on the prairie
line. 1t has required slightly
more than a months work in
building. Bridge No. 48, at the
old Truitt place, is also well
under way and will be completed
in a couple weeks. This leaves
two small bridges still to be COM
pleted north of there and it is
expected with reasonably good
weather they can be completed
not later than February 1st, 1908.
There is till considerable timber
lacking at the two latter bridges
but teams are hauling steadily
and will be able to have it deliv-
cred on the ground by the time
/ it is needed.

Much Fall Flowing Being Done

Much Fall Flowing Being Done.
Last year at this time we were
having our severest winter
weather, but aside from frosty
nights the weather so far this
fall has been elegant. The rains
have not been heavy enough to
hinder travel materially but
have put the ground in fine shape
for plowing and more fall plow-
ing is being done this year than
for several years past. In
fact, most of the farmers out on
the prairie are doing considerable
plowing this fall and present in
dications point to an exceptionally
heavy acreage Of grain being
grown next year, Under
ordinary conditions very little
fall plowing is done but this
year is an exception and if the
usual amount of ground is turned
over next spring the acreage
sown to grain will be increased
nearly one-third over average
years.
