The Salmon River State Bank has on
exhibition samples of some fine corn

Although the corn was planted I'M
usually late the ears are we'll matured.
which proves that the Salmon river soil
and climate are well suited for the pro-
duction of corn and it is preulcted that
considerable land may be planted to
corn in the future. Corn culture would
be specially profitable on land that is
to be summer fallowed.
Johnny Clay of higgins has been at
White Bird for several days having
Doctor Foskett treat his hand which was
badly cut up by coming in contact with
small circular saw while working at
mine near Resort. At the time of
the accident there was no means of
conveyance near the mine so that he
was compelled to walk some fifty miles
to reach his home at higgins where he
could have access to team with which
he made the remaining thirty miles be-
fore reaching the doctor. He suffered
intensely in the meantime both from the
cut and on account of weakened condi
ton from the loss of blood. He says
that in the future he hopes to avoid
compilations with circular saws Mrs.
Clay accompanied him to White Bird
but returned home the next day.
