20. A. Blakeslee, the liveryman
was hauling straw from Paradise
Valley this week. This seems like
very common place statement,
but when it is further considered
that it is the first straw ever put
through a thrashing machine in
this part Of the country, it becomes
more worthy of note. Tillable land
in Bonner county is, as a rule,
more valuable for other crops, and
but little grain is raised, notwith-
standing that land sown to grain
produces big crops.

Y. STATE BOND SALE
AN UNQUALIFIED SUCCESS.

ALBANY, March 12.-The most sue
c~essful bond sale in the history of the

Martin II. Glynn, was that conducted
here by him yesterday. when the latest
issue of FIVE millions of the new fifty
year 4 per c highway Improvement
bonds was sixteen times oversub-
scribed. The aggregate of the bids sub
mitted amounted to nearly $S2, 900, 900;
the prices offered ranged from 106. 456
