Treats from the University of Idaho Digital Library

This Halloween MWDL is bringing you treats in the form of three newly added collections from the University of Idaho Digital Library. The three new collections are:

The Lewiston Orchards Life Newsletter - This newsletter from the 1900s provides a window into the lives of a unique community. This newsletter from October 1913 covers topics such as homes in the area, fruit crop production, travels of the community members, alfalfa crops, the value of cooperation, and using evergreens for lawn planting. Browse all the records from this collection.

The Idaho Historic Aerial Photographs Collection features over 2,000 photos taken from the 1930s-1940s.

The Robert E. Higgins Collection contains representative photographs from a professor of plant science at the University of Idaho from 1946 to 1999. During his lifetime, Professor Higgins’ photographs were accepted in over 70 juried international salons, and he had one-artist exhibitions in Idaho, Washington, and California.
