organization with unnecessary red
tape, but merely the assurance that
each lady interested will do her
share of the work when called upon

One lady, interested in the work,
but who does not wish her name men

The Story of Cottonwood.

Cottonwood is a thriving little
town in the northwestern part of
Idaho county. 1t was one of the
many towns in which the Indian
War took place. Many women,
men and children escaped from
Cottonwood to take refuge in the
fort at Mount Idaho, and many
were killed on the way. A brave
soldier, while carrying valuable
paper, was killed-his name was
Foster-his Igrave is visited by
many.
In the year 1908 Cottonwood's
business district was burned by
fire. Many people were left
penniless and many lost all they
ever had in the world. Other
people were so low as to steal
from the men who had lost and
just had enough to begin in bus
mess again. This fire destroyed
fifty-two business houses.
Cottonwood is in the best
farming region of the world.
The grains grown are as follows:
rye, barley, wheat, timothy, al
falfa and other grains. Cotton
wood is now a railroad town and
carloads of stock are sent to
Spokane to the meat markets.
Around Cottonwood are many
historical places. On the way to
Keuterville is the oldest Catholic
church on the prairie. At Mt.
Idaho is the fort where the
Whites took refuge and is still
standing. Up the Cottonwood
creek people often pick up In
dian arrow heads. Before the
Cottonwood fire there was a
building that was full of bullets
shot by Indians.
