PIONEER HARDSHiPS
May be Avoided and Still Secure the
Great Increase in Values.

There is no doubt about it, that many
har,hhips must be endured by some one
while making paradise ont of this des-
ert land, and it is no wonder that some
question whether the great reward, GER
tain though it may seem TO be, after all
justifies the lie OF many deprivations
that comes before success.
One of our enterprising ranchers is l..
c. Humphrey, whose l60 acre ranch lies
just south of Appleton station, on the
Idaho Southern, and within fourth OF
mile of the new O. S. l.. road.
Mr. II. has more than half his own
ranch in cultivation, and as much more
land adjoining his own, that he holds
under long term leases, and is improving
for the owners and cultivating ON shares,
He has great faith in apples, as the ulti-
mate crop, and in alfalfa seed, hay and
hogs to meet expenses with while the
orchard is developing, and he plans to
raise alfalfa between the rows in his 100
acre orchard as we'll rs on the rest of his
ranch.
MIR. H. holds options on two more
iorty's near his place that he wishes To
sell To parties who want the benefits OF
the investment without the hardships of
the pioneer, and he will take lease OF
the land under contract to improve and
operate, paying the expenses from the
crop profits. One OF these forty's is
specially desirable to divide into smaller
tracts, and he will sell in j or 10 acre
lots ii desired.
Under this plan one can secure q
bearing orchard, well located, about i
mile from two railroad stations, at al
expenditure of about 500 an acre, witt
perpetual water right paid up, and per
sons interested in such an investmen
will do well to address Mr.. Humphre,
at the Jerome p. o., as he desires to sci
only a few of these tracts conviently nea
his own place.

A Bachelors Lament.

One OF our lonely bachelors, who has
been on the tract since its infancy, and
by hard and ceaseless toll has reached a
point where he considers he has sufficient
TO divide with companion, lamentS his
position in the following VERSES, trusting
they may fall into the hands OF some
worthy Miss, who we can safely assure
would make no mistake in coming to the
young mans rescue:

And keep pegging away until the sun gets low.

Valley, Tuesday. During his visit
here Mr.. Dills has made close OBJ
servations of our soil, the water sup
ply etc, having been shown thor
oughly over the North and South
Side tracts, and at our request con
tributes the result Of his observa-
tions, which will be found in an
other column. The views OF this
gentleman should carry considerable
weight, as they are the expressions
of one who has no pecuniary inter-
ests here, having made his fortune
in the Yakima country. He, how

here far ahead Of the pioneer days
in the Yakima. Be sure and read
what he has to say.

We give space this week to statement
of the Lincoln County Commissioners in
rcfutation of the attacks made upon them
10y one oi the county papers. AS these
articles have been inspired simply to gam
a little notoriety politically we have held
aloof from any discussion OF them, pre-
ierring to await a statement from the
Commissioners themselves, which we
felt was due the citizens OF the county
We trust our readers will scan this state
ment closely, as it contains facts and hg'
ures taken from the official records OF the
county, and until the paper referred ''
can show wherein these records nave
been misstated in any way, 1t woul'
seem that the Commissioners had iuliA
vindicated themselves.
