While Trees Mature
Various Ways of Making Living
While Waiting for Orchards to
Reach Age of Bearing

1t is a we'll known fact that large
percentage of the young orchards of
Idaho are owned by people residing in
the East who are waiting for their
orchards to reach maturity before
moving to Idaho to make their home.
This condition is unfortunately, due to
their ignorance of the excellent possi-
bilities of making good living on
their land while their trees are matur-
ing. Three other agricultural lines
offer themselves to the orchardist, any
one of which will yield good living by
itself, or when combined with either or
both of the others. These lines are
poultry raising, vegetables gardening
and bee-keeping.
To the poultryman Idaho offers an
ideal climate for raising his birds and
the best of markets for eggs and
dressed poultry. At no time during
the past two winters have eggs aver
aged below so cents per dozen and
from that price has often gone as high
as 65 cents in some part of the State.
In the summer the price usually runs
from 20 to rs cents and upwards. The
numerous summer resorts in the north
ern part of the State and the hotels of
the large western cities are now fur
nishing excellent markets for broilers.
Pure bred poultry is in demand
throughout the northwest. The orch
lrd offers q free range and an ideal
hade to the poultry during the sum
ner. These points when taken into
with all the essential
poultry foods which are produced at
ur door at reasonable prices, enable
he orchardists to make good living
or his family up to the time the trees
ear.
Orchard tracts that are located near
tiles or mining camps portion of the
pace between the young trees may be
roftably used for the production of
egetables. AS general rule it is

not uncommon to see many families ii
the fruit sections that are being wei
supported by the vegetables raised be-
tween their fruit trees.
Next to raising vegetables, bee-keep-
ing may be ranked in order of import
ance. Bee-keeping in many parts of
Idaho should appeal to the prospective
citizen, not only from the standpoint
of ideal climatic conditions for this line
of agriculture, but from the standpoint
of the prices received for the honey
and wax The latter product has been
on continuous rise in price for many
years on account Of the constantly in
creasing use Of it in the manufacture
of grating wax. The benefits of bees
to the orchards when it comes into
bearing belong to the subject of polli
alton. but it will suffice to say that the
quality and quantity of fruit has been
proved in many cases by carefnl ex-
to be increased many
iollars per acre when honey bees are
n abundance.
Hence if the prospective orchardist
If the East would resolve to give as
much careful study to the timely de-
,ails of any of the above lines of
agriculture as will be necessary for
lim to give to the fruit raising in
rider to succeed, he needs to make no
esitancy in moving to Idaho now.

R. S. Buck, noted engineer of New
York, who represents eastern interests
with heavy financial backing, is now or
the ground examining the Big Bruneau
irrigation project for the purpose OF
making a special report on the feasibil-
ity of not question of money so much
as the project, according to s. H. Hays
who returned to Boise from Twin Falls
yesterday.
The interests which Engineer Buck
represents are entirely able to finance
this project and it is as of feasibility,
said the general. Engineer Buck has
been on the ground since last Saturday,
and it will probably take month be-
fore he submits his report, it is said.
In discussing the matter, General
Hays says in part: This project, as
proposes, is one of the most remark
able in the world from an engineering
standpoint and it is these unusual
features which call for careful exami-
nation"
"The total acresge proposed to be
covered amounts to about 500, 900
acres. This will make it not only the
largest project in Idaho, but in the
whole world as WELL The plans in
