HeIl'S GuICh Settlers
Dispose Of Timber

The st. Maries Lumber COM
pany has closed a contract with
a number of the settlers on Har-
rison Flats, in the vicinity OF
Hells Gulch, to purchase their
timber. o. C. Hopkins, who has
been logging for the company
near Falcon, has taken the con-
tract to cut and put the timber in
and will commence operations
soon.
A sluice will be built from the
head Of Helrs Gulch down the
The gulch to connect with the
ditch built by Louis Grinde to get
his logs to the river, and the logs
will be sluiced down into this
ditch, floated to the st. Joe river
and towed from there to the mill
in this city.
It is stated that there is in the
neighborhood of a hundred mil
lion feet of timber owned by the
settlers on Harrison Flats which
can be brought out in this way,
which means that they can be
brought out through the gulch
cheaper than in any other way
At present the st. Maries Lumber
company has only contracted for
a portion of this timber, but it is
thought that with a camp estab-
lished and roads made they vii
eventually purchase it all as they
will be in a position to pay bet
ter prices than any outside firm
could afford to pay.

New Dyking
Project Started
ONE THOUSAND ACRES RECLAIMED
Dyke To Be Built From Cosmos Landing To
Mission Point.

The settlers on the river bot
tom between Cosmos Landing
and Mission Point have complet-
ed all arrangements to build a
dyke along the st. Joe river to
prevent the river from overflow
ing their lands during the high
water season.
The dyke will be about two and
one-half miles long. 1t will
start at the big ditch dug to per-
NIT the sluicing of logs from the
Hel's Gulch district and a dyke
will be built along the ditch from
the river to the high ground.
From the ditch the dyke will run
along the bank of the river to be-
low the Maxwell place at Mission
Point and from the river at that
point back to the hill.
There are approximately 1000
acres of rich bottom land that
under present conditions is of
yery little value, which will be re-
claimed by the project. The
owners of this land are M. Peter
son and Mrs. Gilberg, of Spokane,
Mike Nueman and John Peterson
of Seattle, Boutwell, & Kirk of this
city, John Klieber, Jas. S. Milton,
Mrs. M. L. Teale, C. B. Maxwell
and r. X Marshall, settlers who
reside on their land and all have
united in the project
The land to be dyked includes
Goose Heaven lake, a small lake
containing about twenty acres,
and it is planned to dig two large
main bitches, one from the up
per end and the other from the
lower end of the project and both
running into the lake. A pump
ing station will be erected on the
bank of the river nearly opposite
Ramsdell station and large
ditch will be dug from the lake
to the river at this point so that
the water running down from the
hills can be pumped out. These
main bitches will be about three
miles long.

lily it is designed for publicity, and
all that is derived from the above
appropriation must be credited to
hat portion south Of the Salmon
river. | don't undertake to say
how much value there is in such
exploitation. That it must be
considerable is shown by the ex-
hibils from other states costing
several million dollars.
What peeves the man from the

stepped right up and picked the

aspersions on the exhibits from
our southern citizens, | make the
observation that northern Idaho
cherries and other small fruits
are excelled by none of the exhi-

mountain laks and trout streams

speaks of her abundance of nat

We all know these to be facts
but we also missed the oppor-
tunity of a decade to apprise the
world of them through the ex-
position now drawing to a close.
Those in charge of the Idaho ex-
hibits state that the panhandle
has but herself to blame for this.

which can usually be counted on to

The question of profit from keeping
turkeys simply resolves itself into
the ability of the grower to bring
them to marketable size. This can
readily be done if care and atten.
ton be given to all the requirements
of success.
Six standard varieties are more or
less grown in this country: Bronze,
Narragansett. Buff, Slate, White and
Black.
The main differences are in size and
color of plumage. The Bronze and
the Narragansett are the largest, the
Buff and Slate are the medium, and
the Black and White the smallest.
Much improvement has been made
in the size of the Whites of late
and they have moved up to contend
for first position, some Of them hav'
ing passed the thirty-pound mark.
The same statement may be soon
made of the Black, as they have great
ly improved during the past few
years.
In addition to the foregoing there
is the nonstandard variety known as
the Bourbon Reds. They might well
claim the position now held by the
Buff turkeys, being quite like them
and more largely grown for the mar
ket than are Bluffs.

nests of woodpeckers, or in natural
crannies in rocks. The northern VIC
let-green swallow, the rough-winged
swallow, and the bank swallow still
live in practically such places as their
ancestors chose.
Field observation convinces an or
dinarily attentive person that the food
of swallows must consist of the small
er insects captured in midair or
picked from the tops of tall grass or
weeds. This observation is borne out
by an examination Of stomachs, which
shows that the food is made up of
many small species Of beetles which
are much on the wing; many species
OF mosquitoes II their allies, togeth-
er with large quantities Of flying ants;
n a few insects of similar kinds.
Unlike many other groups Of birds,
the six species of swallows found in
the eastern states extend in a prac-
tlcally unchanged form across the con-
tinent, where they are REINFORCED by

HOW TO SHIP MATCHING EGGS
Most Important Thing Is to Satisfy
Customers-Neat, Attractive
Package Is Pleasing.

The most important thing is to
satisfy your customers by giving them
exactly what you advertise to sell, or,
even doing a little better.
If eggs are broken in transit do not
hesitate to replace them the day you
receive the complaint from your Gus
toner.
Give everybody a square deal and
remember that a satisfied customer is
always a customer.
A neat, attractive package may cost
a trife more than a slovenly one, but
it will please your customers and ad-
vertise your egg business, because
customers very often judge a mans
business by first impressions Of pack.
age and contents when they are re.
ceived.
The best package for shipping eggs
is a basket, although many breeders
do not use them.
The basket should hold one or two
settings, and these can be got for two
cents from any manufacturer. A thick
layer of excelsior should cover the
bottom, and all eggs should be
wrapped in soft paper and SO packe ed
with fine excelsior that they will not
touch each other.
When the eggs are packed put an
other layer of excelsior over the top
and owe with a thin board.
Next to the basket is the egg box
made for holding 10 or Is eggs. This
is arranged with cardboard compart-
ments with room for excelsior or other
packing at the top INC bottom.
This box is provided with a wire
handle and the cover slides into
grooves which may then be screwed
or tackled down with small nails.
Never ship a package hat is not
screwed or nailed down, because this
will save eggs from being filched by
curious persons who can open the
package in transit.
Never ship a soiled egg. Nothing
so disgusts a customer as to receive a
setting of eggs which are dirty and
of poor shape.
Eggs should be selected so that
each setting will be uniform In size.
shape and color when possible.
