Pine Lands Raise Fine Spuds.

Frank Witham was down from the
Weippe section Monday and told the
Republican editor that he was this
season raising the finest potatoes he
ever saw. 81 dug hill the other
day ard got six very large potatoes
out of it,, said Mr.. Witham, land
the yeild promises to be up to this
standard. The quality is good, as any
one who has eaten Weippe prairie
potatoes will verify. The Witham
crop is being grown on ground known
as pine land, and is the first crop.
The clearing was done some yea s
ago, but this first crop is being raised.
lti noteworthy as showing what may
be done after the timber is removed,
and gives one some idea of the future
possibilities of that di"trict. With
the removal of the forest will come a
moderation in the climate, and where
dense pines now cover the ground
there will spring up broad fields of
waving grain, thrifty gardens and
orchards. Mr.. Witham purchased 80
acres of pine land for $3.50, says
the lost of clearing and cultivation is
not too heavy to frighten the industri-
GUS man looking for an opportunity to
get home Of his own.

The Water is Fine.

Swimming in the Clearwater river
is fine. The warm weather has tenn
pered the water till there is no
longer that dread of the first dip, and
even an hour or two in the river is
not uncomfortable. The most popular
place now is the big eddy where a
big sand bar and a sandy bottom make
bathing agreeable and pleasant. Sun
day found large number of women,
men and children enjoying swim,
and the sport promises to become even
more popular as the season warns up.
1t has been suggested that citizens
buy an acre or two from the Indians,
itb ieng reservation land, and make it
into a park. There is fine natural
beach, and the addition of dressing
rooms and the cleaning up of the un-
derbrush would give US one of the
most attractive parks in the country.
There is fine spring water cool shade
and excellent bathing privileges,
combining to make this pleasure
spot unequaled in the northwest.

A Smut Proof Harvester.

There is one harvester that is ex-
plosion proof the Idaho, made in
Moscow. Smut explosions are pos
sible in machines where there is a
place for the accumulation of smut gas
or dust. The Idaho has 9-foot cyl
indar and is so constructed as to be
absolutely explosion proof. In view
of the numerous explosions, and the
loss resulting, it ought to be of in
terest to farmers to look into the
merits of the Moscow harvester. 1t
is not only explosion-proof, but
greatly redu 'es the cost of harvest
ing. For example, an Idaho puts
grain into the sack at a cost not tc
exceed 81 per acre, or less than the
cost of binding. 1t scatters the straw
evenly over the ground, broken up sc
it may be plowed under for fertilizer,
or the machine will pile it in shocks
to be gathered later for feed. II
meets every requirement, settles the
labor problem for the farmer, enables
him to harvest when his crops are
ready, and saves at least So per acre
over the binder and thresher method
The Idaho is today a proven success
and will eventually revolutionize har.
vesting methods.

w. P. Romans, travelling secretary
of the Spokane Chamber of Commerce,
visited Orofno Wednesday. gathering
information of interest to Spokane
merchants. Incidentally the Spokane
Chamber of Commerce is making an
effort to develope the territory con-
tinguous to Spokane, but it is quite
doutful if Orofno can ever expect very
much enthusiasm in Spokane over
the proposed Missoula cutoff. That
is the way Spokane will help Orofino

Pierce District Deserves Notice.

J. D. Cummings, who is developing
mining property in the Pierce dis
trict, was in Orofino Monday enroute
to Spokane. Of conditions in mining
circles about Pierce Mr.. Cummings
said: "It is difficult to understand
how district as promising as the
Pierce can remain inactive much
longer. This old camp has produced
millions in placer gold; there are
many fine Lodges that are worth de-
veloping. Outside capital certainly
does not appreciate the mineral pos
sibilities of Pierce camp Mr.
Cummings spoke particularly of the
Golden Gate property which will, he
declared, make big mine.
