Show Great-Idaho Land Sale. That was a tnarvolous sale of land by the state of Idaho last Monday. The land lays along the track of the American Palls Land & Power Company. Indeed it was about tho biggest sale, at least in one respect, ever made. The land was appraised at $10 and $12 per acre, and it sold for $40 per aoro without any water right attaohed: It is tho biggest advertisement that Idaho lands over received. It makos good the Idaho claim that people can get back from tho lands they purchase there the whole cost in two years. After five years the return annually is four times the original cost of tho land and the planting. |
