the pictures.

showing that $51, 400 has been

than in the past ten years.
In addition, l wish every reader

may snow a few days the chinook
winds coon make it disappear. For
a few days or possibly a week in the
latter part OF January it may get
as cold as 13or15 degrees below zero.
Usually there is just enough snow
in the city to make sleighing good,
and probably lasts month. Never
any billiards. or big snow drifts
taking it all in all the climate is
ideal.
With the completion of the long
looked for bridge across the Koot-
enai at this place, which is to be
completed by August l, 1910, cost
ing the state and county $4,000.
Work on the new bridge we have
been assured would commence
shortly after January 1, 1910, and
rapidly pushed until completed.
The building of bridge across
the river will do wonders for the
city and vicinity. Again we sug-
gest that live Commercial Club
be organized and let everyone for
get their jealouies or grievances
and get together and boost for Bon

that will do little real advertis-

Has Bonners Ferry grown? This
question he's been asked by many
old residents. visiting again the

other fields of labor. The best ans

have been built, also the improve

Well now | want to just get up
and shout that it has, and what is
better it is still growing. Why
that town cannot help but grow,
just look at the map, notice its geo.

fertile valley of the Kootcnai and
then look little higher, see those
long stretches of practically level

country all tributary to old
