The Cottonwood Milling Co.,
on Monday drove 395 head of
porkers from their hog ranch
for shipment. The porkers
were all in No. / shape and will
no doubt top the market.
That the earth didn't freeze
up, and that the steaming vol
cano reported on the School sec
ton near Keuterville turned out
to be an old stump afire under
ground, are things we are thank
full for this week.
People called her "The Richest
Girl in the World" but she was
the most unhappy. You won't
believe that possible until you
see the fascinating Emmy Web
len in "The Belle of the Season"
at the Orpheum, Tuesday the %.
Mr.. and Mrs. P. A. Gaul re-
turned last Thursday evening
from a weeks business visit to
North Yakima, Spokane and
other points. Mr.. Gaul was es-
pecially well impressed with
North Yakima. He stated that
land there sold from 5000 to
$4,000 an acre. He was shown a
20 acre orchard that brought its
owner 500 worth of fruit from
each tree. Everything in this
section is irrigated.
The Cottonwood Milling Co.,
received a car load of corn from
Minneapolis. They have three
more cars on the way as also
four cars of oats all from Min
neapolis, seems strange that this
country should be shipping in
feed stuffs from so far east. If
some prophet some ten years
ago had predicted such events
his neighbors and friends would
have tapped their Dome" and
said Nobody Home"
Ira Gentry left Thursday
morning for Los Angeles, CAL,
to be gone during the winter but
expects to return in the spring
and do further development
work on the mines from which
he recently made several car
load shipments of ore. He said
the ore shipped brought about
$4,000 per ton gross which is
highly satisfactory and if suf.
ficient ore body exists, which he
will try to determine in the
spring, we may expect quite 8
mining boom in Cottonwood.

A. ]. Wassmuth the Green
creek blacksmith left for Lewis
ton Thursday morning to have
casting made for a power ham
mer of his own design. He haC
the pattern with him made BY
himself in his shop and it looked
like very practical thing anc
speaks well of his ability as 8
designer and inventor. We hope
that he will find it an excellent
success and will realize a gooc
profit on sales to the trade as
well as practical machine fol
his own use.
