A Fine SIGHT.

One Of the finest sights to be seen
in the county is from the top Of Mica
Mountain northeast OF Troy and little
the other side OF Avon. The road
from Avon is through one Of the pretti-
est sections in the country, there being
some Of the finest farms one ever saw.
Reaching the foot Of the mountain
the road starts up gradual slope,
winding gracefully up among the tall
pines till it finally reaches the mica
mines. Here is the finest water that
one ever drank, being cold as ice and
clear and pure. And the sight! From
the narrow backbone on the top Of the
ridge one can see to the east and north
the basin OF the Potlatch, spreading out
like great green blanket, the finest
body Of white pine timber now in the
world. II is just one solid mass for
fifteen miles where the basin merges
into the mountains, also covered with
timber, with here and there a burning
along the side Of some tall peak.
Looking back towards Troy the sight
is no less beautiful. The great Pot
latch ridges, with their fertile farms
among the timber, and beyond, as far
as the eye can reach, is to be seen the
canyons Of the Clearwater and the
Snake, with Craigs mountain rising till
it seems TO penetrate the clouds, and
farther to the west is the range OF Blue
Mountains.

Some cows VIII chew their cuds dur

Every mixer thinks he knows how to
milk. The cows often have a difereni
opinion. and they are best able to
judge.

tors were scrubs. has no place In any

Of good dairy cows, and the man whs
does so is likely to be disappointed.

Haul With Steam.

H. A. Dinsmore, the hustling saw
mill man OF this section, has inaugur-
ated a new method of hauling lumber
to market from the mill. He has a
large traction engine and with this he
will make one trip day from the Dry
Creek mill. some eight miles from
Troy, hauling at each trip about 10000
feet OF lumber. The price for hauling
is 81 per thousand so that it is an easy
matter to figure out whether or not it is
going to pay. 1t will do the work of
four four-horse teams, each with a
driver, and when not in action will eat
no oats. The road over which this
engine will make its trips is very steep
in places, and as hard road to travel
as any in the county. Here again
comes the question of good roads as
asset to every community,
and in this Mr.. Dinsmore will probably
agree. With level road to Troy he
could increase his loads enough to
lessen the cost of marketing
his entire lumber crop" And
better road would make it possible for
every farmer to haul bigger loads and
make the trip great deal quicker than
IS possible over the present hills.

Ship Eighty Carloads Of Cattle.

Fifty car loads Of cattle were shipped
last week from Sites by Bales and Jones,
the Idaho county cattle buyers, and
thirty more car loads will be sent out
this week by the same firm. All OF
these cattle were purchased in Idaho
county, the most of them coming from
the Snake and Salmon river ranges.
The cattle were purchased by the U. S.
government to stock the Indian reser-
walton near Maldan, Dakota. The
cattle were inspected by DR.. L. c.

Money In Trees.

There is money in timber within
reach OF market at this time, judging
from the experience OF Messrs. Cooper
& Fildes Of Troy. A year ago they
bought from Chas. Smith OF Troy an
eighty acre tract mile southwest OF
town, twenty-three acres Of which was
in cultivation, and the balance in tim
Der. 1t is tract that lays well and
will make good farm when cleared.
The new owners have been converting
the timber into cord wood and are now
assured Of a nice margin over the price
paid Mr.. Smith, which was $4,000.
The wood is bringing them $3.50 I. o.
b. Troy, and is finding ready sale at
that figure. They will have something
like $4,000 worth Of wood, and %
acre crop besides. On this place they
cut one yellow pine tree that made
fourteen and half cords, which was
worth the handsome sum Of $78.375.
1t cost SIPS per cord to get it cut up
and it took Mr.. Fildes two days to
haul il TO Troy and load it on the car.
Another tree, tamarack, made ten
cords. By this it will be seen what
one good tree is worth at the present
price of wood, and give pretty good
idea OF the value Of a good timber
claim within reach OF railroad.

Lots Of Business.

II their is anyone who is in doubt
as 10 the business done in Troy let
them come here and use their eyes for
day or so. Let them sit on the
corner of Main street and count the
teams loaded with hay, wood, ties and
lumber that are constantly pouring into
town. If they are still in doubt let
them take team and drive into the
country. By the time they have gone
four or five miles and have been com
PEELED to turn out about once, (some-
times twice., every few rods to let
loaded teams pass on their way to Troy.
Troy is busy town. and has a bright
future before it. Her business men
are progressive and imbued with con-
fidence in their town and this will keep
Troy growing. Our farmers are the
best in the West, and our soil the most
fertile on the top Of green old earth so
why Shouldn't the people be happy
and prosperous?

proved fatal before medicine could he
