PROJECTS of B0zenan.-New school
House.

'Bozeman evidently now enjoys great
err degree of prosperity than at any time
since its founding. There are neither va
cant business nor dwelling houses in the
town. and several new ones Of both class
es will go up this season. The business
men generally acknowledge a fair trade for
the past year, and anticipate the same for
the present. A good many strangers are
now in Bozeman, and the greater part of
them, was told, have this spring come up
from Caster county. 1t is estimated that
over three hundred new men have already
come into Gallatin county this spring from
this source, a portion OF which have, of
course, scattered to other counties. There
is no doubt but that Montana will receive
large emigration this year via Bismarck,
Miles City and Bozeman.
among the noticeable new buildings in
the Eastern metropolis is the school house
just completed and now occupied. Exter-
nally it presents an equally imposing ap-
pearance with the Helena school house.
The dimensions are 60x6O feet ON the
ground. two stories high, the basement
being IA feet and the upper story Is feet
from floor to ceiling, with tower in front
90 feet high. Below are three rooms snd
4 hall, and above are the assembly and an
other room. The assembly room is said
to be the largest and best in the Territory.

BOZcneM Fair Association.

We clip the following from a late num-
Der of the Husbaudman:
1--WE learn from the Bozeman papers
that project is on foot looking to the Or
ganization of a Fair Association at that
place. This is very important move, and
if properly carried out will be of incalcul-
able benefit to Gallatin valley, and to all of
Eastern Montana. We know of no better
means that can be employed to encourage
the importation Of fine stock, and induce
the careful study and employment OF the
most improved modes Of tiiling the sol!
than associations OF this character. The
experience of the old settled States has
demonstrated this. An agricultural fair
cannot fail to become the means of doing
good, and the better it is ma2aged the
greater and more lasting will be the benefits
resulting therefrom:
The farmers of Gaffatin valley are veal
thy and prosperous, and abundantly able
to organize an association Of this kind that
may not only do credit to Bozeman and
Gall.tin valley, but to tie entire Territory.
Gallatin owns fair share of the fine stock
of Montana, and Bozeman is a point CT
conside- able commercial importance, and
as good a location for such an exhibition
as could lave been selected. Besides conf
manding \ considerable home patronage,
it will draw large attendance of the fine
stock of Madison. Beaverhead, Jefferson,
and Meagher counties, which would repre-
sent the bulk of fine stock of the Terri
tory. We would say to the farmers there ::
take liberal amount of stock; see to it
that you own the controlling interest, that
yOu may conduct it for the advancement
Of your calling. Do not enter into it with
the hope that it win prove great financial
speculation. and do not conduct it with
this view. Let your object be the advance
nent OF the Industrial interests of the
country. Look for your dividends, not in
dollars, but in the general improvement
and progress which such institutions are
calculated to inspire"
