LUMBER CONDITION ON OUTSIDE

w. b. Hussman returned Tuesday
from a trip to outside points including
Spokane and Occur d'Alene, and re-
ports the lumber industry has taken a
decided turn for the better in the last
sixty days. The large mills in the In
land Empire and on the coast have all
advanced their prices and lind them
selves confronted with serious car
shortage in supplying their trade. This
should be good news to all the local
mill men for they will no doubt realize
better prices locally and Tor their shop
in future. At Occur d 'Alene he found
the Blackwell Lumber company arrang-
ing for large silo trade in the middle
western states, Minnesota, Montana
and the Dakotas. This company is a
subsidiary of Weyerhauser syndicate
and an idea of the magnitude of their
operations may be CLEANED from the
fact that they ordered silo irons to the
amount, approximating $4,000 and
were unloading, at the time he was
there, five carloads of hoops, one of
Tugs and another of door irons. This
company is making the same silo, the
Eureka, that Mr.. Hussman is interest
ed in, and such evidence of faith on the
part of such large company has given
him new faith in the merits of this

STOCK DOING WE'LL ON SALMON

Fet Rhoades came out Wednesday
from the upper Salmon river, where he
has been for the past few months as
sisting his brother Jay on the ranch,
and dropped off here for few day s
visit with relatives and old friends be-
fore going on to Lewiston where his
family resides. Fet says the firm of
Holt & Rhoades is feeding about 900
head of cattle on the upper river this
winter and the stock is all doing well
as they have plenty of feed to see them
through, no matter how long the snow
may last. Only about six inches of
snow fell at the Jay Rhoades place on
Rapid river and this was all off the
low ground before he left. At the Holt
ranch about fourteen inches of snow
fell and the farther this way he came
the deeper the fall seemed to have
been. Hardly any losses have been sus-
tanned by the stockmen along the up
per river, although the snow fell there
deeper and the cold was more intense

THE GEEzER WHO WAS WISE.

There was an old geezer and he had
a lot of sense; he started up n candy
business on dollar eighty cents-the
dollar for stock and the eighty for an
ad brought him three lovely dollars in
day, by dadl Well, he bought more
goods and a little more space and he
played that system with a smile on his
face. The customers flocked to his
two-by-four, and soon he had to hustle
for regular store. Up on the square,
where the people pass, he gobhled up a
corner that was all plate glass He
fixed up the windows with the best
that he had and he told 'em all about
it in half-page ad. He soon had 'em
coming and he never, never quit, and
he wouldn't cut down on his ads one
bit. Well, he's kept things humping in
the town ever since and everybody calls
him the Merchant Prince. Some say
its luck, but that IS all bunk-why, he
was doing business when the times
We're punk. People have to purchase
and the geezer was wise-for he knew
the way to get 'em was to ADVERTISE

extracted gold from gravels in Jackson
Hole. 1t occurs at many places both
On the present river bars and on ter

Gent levels of the water, but it does
not occur in quantity so great as to
support large operations with marked
financial success, though some miners
have made small amount of money.
Probably the most extensive workings
were in southern Idaho, in the vicinity
of Rupert, Minidoka, and American
Falls.
Most of the gold is in very small
Flakes having an average fineness of
,945. About $4,000 has been pro-
duced since 1902, the earliest date for
which records are available. A little
platinum occurs with the gold but not
In commercial quantities.
Many dredges and "proeess ma
chimes have been tried on Snake River,
most of them depending on amalgama-
ton for the recovery of the gold, but
the sluice and Kicker, the sluice supple
mented by burlap tables, have proved
the most successful.
On account of this region and bibli-
ography of the literature pertaining to
it, with descriptions of a number of
typical localities, has been published
by the United States Geological. Survey
in Bulletin 62O-L, by j. M. Hill, which

ICE GORGES.

lC6 GOhGGS.
All of the smaller streams entering
the South Fork from the west are at a
high water mark and for the past two
days have been disgorging large
quantities of ice. Wednesday morning
larger gorge than usual broke loose
from Cottonwood creek came into the
Clearwater, bringing down what ice had
formed in that stream as far as the
bridge where it gorged for a short time
raising the water to some extent but
doing no damage. This gorge broke
early in the morning and went down
below the slaughter house where it
again gorged. This time it raised the
water on the west side of the rive, I'M
til Laurance Howard s house had three
feet of water on the floors and Mrs.
Earl Steen s, two feet. Both families
had left before the water reached them.
In the afternoon the gorge broke,
moving down to about the Brown place
where it is still gorged. Railroad Of
ficials say this gorge is about - feet
deep, 200 feet wide and quarter of a
mile long. It is feared that much
damage will be done when it breaks as
the ice is solid in the Middle Fork and
serious gorges may occur there.-Stites
