]. L. Wees OF Oreana made this Office a
pleasant call the first OF the week while
in the city in attendance on the County
Court having just complicated bridge
for the county Mr.. Wees says than the
Oreana country is becoming one of the
most prosperous sections of the state.
During the recent cold snap, the lowest
temperature recorded at that place was
degrees below. The stockmen and
ranchers have plenty of hay to carry them
through the winter and there will be no
unusual loss of stock in that locality.
The irrigation projects in that part Of the
county are well under way and will fur

which win largely increase the amount of
land under cultivation in the vicinity of
Oreana. The building of the railroad
from Buhl to Nyssa will greatly benefit
that part of Owyhee County and make
the property in and about Oreana very
valuable.

the amount of their claim. We have not
heard the result of the meeting but hope
that satisfactory arrangements were made
whereby the property can again be
worked as there is no doubt of it becom-
ing paying proposition if economically
handled. They have ore of sufficient
value and amount, good hoisting works
