Christmas Gift of
$52,594.33 for Ida.
UNCLE SAM SQUARES UP TO JUNE
BOTH, 1909, ON FOREST
RESERVE RECEIPTS.

Idaho is to receive a neat little
Christmas present in the form of
$Y2 594. 33 in cash as her share
q tRe receipts from forest re-
serves IN the state. Information
reached Governor Hawley that
this amount was now on the way.
1t may not reach the state treas
ury before the first of the year,
but there is no doubt that it is
coming.
This amount had accrued to
the credit of the state up to June
80. 1909. Under the rules the
state gets % per cent of the total
forest reserve receipts from graz
ing. timber sales and other sour
ces. The whole is paid into the
federal treasury and at stated
times settlement is made with the
different states.
This 2,594.33 coming to
Idaho at this time, Governor
Hawley says, will go to the cred
it of the public school and public
road funds of the counties in
which the forest reserves are
located.

ed the very unique method OF
advertising Idaho, by placing on
every card containing the bill of
fare on the diners of that system,
a picture of a farm in Idaho where
the workman on that farm are
actively engaged in harvesting a
bumper crop of potatoes so COM
mon to this state, and at the bot
tom a short paragraph stating
the wonderful productivity ofour
soil and that every crop known
to agriculture is grown success
fully here. We think this more
appropriate than advertising a
health resort in far off Italy.
