DRIVE OF FINE POLES
Kerr Cedar Company Finished Decking
Many Thousand Poles.

The Kerr Cedar company this week
closed a very successful year in the pole
business at Kooskia and at the present
time have about fifteen thousand cedar
poles decked on the N. P. railway
grounds ready for shipment. The poles
are, according to experts, first class,
being free from rot or blemish and run
from 80 to go feet in length.
The company commenced operations
at this point about one year ago, es-
tablishing camps on the Locksa above
the mouth of Pete King creek. where
they had purchased from the govern
ment large quantity of cedar, suitable
for poles, posts and shingles. But ow-
ing to the delay caused by erection of
camps and building of booms and con-
struction of trails, the actual work of
driving the poles did not begin until
late in the season and consequently
the drive Just completed was caught in
early ice few miles above town, from
which it was finally extricated after
a heavy expense had been incurred.
T. H. Kerr, manager of the com
pany's operations at this point, aims to
commence work in about two weeks on
much larger scale as the company
intend to handle large quantity of
posts in connection with poles.-Kooskia

MAY GROW SEED POTATOES

Do Camas prairie farmers want to
raise "spuds?'
That there will be big money in the
culture of potatoes for many years to
come is beyond question if it is properly
followed out for number of years
A. c.. Denny, of Freewater, Ore, was
in town couple of days the first of
the week looking for good potatoes and
while here took down the names of a
number of our farmers who may be in
duced to grow potatoes extensively
the coming season. Mr.. Denny has
travelled extensively over the North
west for his company and states he has
found no section of country to con
pare with Camas prairie for tie grow
ing of potatoes. This country is en-
tirelv free from potato disease and is
ideally situated to take up the growing
of potatoes for seed purposes. South
Idaho is great potato growing sec
ton but cannot produce satisfactory
seed potatoes for their own use and as
seed potatoes always command fancy
price in the market it would seem that
big money could be made here from
growing potatoes and without doubt
some of our more progressive farmers
will give the matter trial.
Mr.. Denny stated his company, the
Valley Fruit Co. of Freewater will try
and interest number of farmers on
the prairie in growing potatoes on a
somewhat extensive scale this season
and is in position to handle the entire
crop at very satisfactory prices, the
same as they are now handling much of
the fruit crop of the Walla Walla val
ley.
Camas prairie can grow as fine pota-
toes, and as many of them to the acre,
AS any section of country in the west
and it would seem that the growing of
seed potatoes should open for us an
almost unlimited market. Considerable
instruction will be necessary in order to
become acquainted with the size and
character of potatoes that will com
mand top market price, but after this
is accomplished the rest is easy.
Potatoes are now selling for So a
sack on the coast and any old thing re-
sembling a spud goes. The price is
liable to go still higher before the new
crop is ready to market.-Cottonwood

B. A. Miller, well known rancher

| night on his way home from Spokane
where he had just marketed 95 head of

for the porkers. He will ship some
more.
| A meeting was held in the city We'd
nesday for the organization of a fire
company and a fair attendance was had.
The need of an organization of the
kind is fully realized and those present
at the meeting secured the signatures
of some twenty-five or thirty citizens
who agreed to take part in the organiza-
ton. Another meeting will be held
Monday night at which time officers
will be elected and rules and regula-
tions drafted 1t is the intention to
have the company practice frequently
during the summer months and be in
position to promptly handle any fire
that may originate.
Starting on July 18th, after the best
season for cream production for the
year had passed, the local creamery has
been able to make very fine showing
Up to January first, after only 81
months of actual operation, the cream
cry was able to report total output
of 81 ,233 pounds of butter, and had the
year been completed this figure would
have been nearly doubled. When it is
taken into consideration that the Sites
creamery, after several years of opera
ton, made only $4,000 pounds of but
ter last year, it can be readily seen that
the local creamery is starting off in ex
ceptionally fine shape. With the in
creased interest already being shown
in dairying it is safe to say that the
output will be materially increased this
year and that within few years dairy
ing will become one of the leading in
dustries of this section

Gus Fitting and r. R. Kirtley with

ed the residence from the Kirtley place
to the Fitting ranch last week to re-
place the one lost by fire recently. The
building was divided in two parts and
put on skids and moved a distance of
about one half mile This was quite
on undertaking, owing to the scarcity
of lumber this seemed the only way at
present. But considering the prepare
lions being made by several of our
ranchers to have large contracts of lum-
Der and ties sawed in the coming spring
we hope soon to have an abundance of
lumber in our community.
