here q great dairy country, advancing

for dairying because Of it's mild winter

green pastures for eight months of the

Up to a certain period of develop
ment every new district is problemati-
cal, but with 40 to so years of record
behind it, the Boise valley is Justified
in saying to the world that 1t Is no
longer in the experimental stage; it's
claims are sustained by facts and not
by theories or conjecture; its sur
roundings are stable; It's resources haze
proven their worth, and capital will
proceed with their development It
produces the fundamental crops Of the
world, including every kind of fruit
grown In temperate climates, all the
valuable pasture grasses. alfalfa, corn
and all farm grains. These all appear
to be in their most favorable elements
No country can claim as many favor

fitable farm life as are found in the

is an opportunity for you. All that has
been done is but a good beginning.
