LETTER FROM BEAVER HEAD
BEAVER HEAD March Goth, 1879

| BEAVER HEAD March 18th. 1877 \
| Editor Auant Courier.
Thinking few items from this section
might be interesting to your readers. send
you the following. On this Valley, stock,
which were locking poor from the effects OF
the severe inter they had passed through,
are beginning to show their rotundity, and
we are now able to furnish as good beef cattle
as any place in the Territory. There will be
large number Of farms under cultivation
this season. Farming has not hitherto been
extensively carried on in this Valley, the inl-
! preston being prevalent that the soil was
unfit for that purpose, but the experience OF
| a few of our settlers during the past year has
induced many to try it the present one.
Stock raising. however. constitute the prill-
cipal resource of this section, and experience
has proved that this place is pre-eminently
adapted for that purpose, as the finest graz
ing lands are to be found here in abundance.
The range between the Stinkingwater and
and Big Hole Rivers furnish the finest kind
Of bunch grass, and are capable OF sustaining,
winter and summer, enormous herds OF
stock. The principal drawback. 20 this place,
is its lack of market facilities. but even these
are far superio to those of many places that
wot of s'baek in the States.'' Here the far
mer can keep his produce and in the spring
find sale for it, TO the traders who take i to
the various mining camps between here and
Helena. and in fact all through Deer Lodge
County, and the demand, in that way. has
hitherto exceeded the supply. In the mining
camps of Argenta and Bannack times are

or prosperity than has been experienced here
for several years.
