Boundary County
Idaho

is the extreme northern county of
Idaho. It's principal resources are ag-
riculture, dairying and stock raising,
mining, timber. The county includes
large portion of the Kootenai Val
ley, the most fertile district of the
world. Cutover lands may be pur-
chased on long time contracts at from
$40 to $25 per acre. Bottom and mead
ow lands sell for from SO to $50 per
acre. There are many hundreds of
acres of agricultural land in Boundary
county which will make fine homes for
the energetic farmer. Millions of feet
of timber remain uncut and the rivers
and creeks may be easily harnessed to
give thousands of horsepower. Raw
material in quantities to lasts100 years,
for paper pulp, may be found in the
county and this timber is easy of ac-
cess. The mining industry is yet in
its infancy. Sufficient capital would
put only one of a dozen mines on a
dividend-paying basis. The climate is
ideal. the rainfall all that is needed
No irrigation in this district Good
roads, good schools. Plenty of trans
portation facilities.
