-
From saytneed sheets for tn. stsersesn Agricul-
tussiiet.l
,TM5niana is by far the richest of all the West
ern Territories. Its mines, grazing lands and
agriculture form the basis for a stupendous
commonwealth. 1t is hard to say whether its
cattle, cereals, or gold and silver will ultimately
prove the most valuable, but the three COM
bined will, some day in the near future, make
this the best State west of the Missouri river
1t is difficult to make Eastern men comprehend
the extent of our Western States and Terrific
ries; and even those who live in them can
hardly understand what magnificent empires
they are. Montana is, for example, three times
as large as the State of New York, and twice as
large as the six New England States combined.
Five hundred miles long and three hundred
miles wide, it contains an area of $50, 900 square
miles, 100000 acres of agricultural lands
and 10000. 900 acres of grazing lands.
have travelled over most of the Territory,
and never saw finer soil. The Gallatin valley
is famous for its crops of wheat, oats and bar
ley. Vegetables of all kinds grow luxuriantly,
and corn can be raised away from the noun
tains. For nine years the troops have worked
gardens at Fort Ellis, and last year the yield
was as follows:
Helena weekly herald. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1867-1900, 1879-01-02


Since its organization as Territory, Montana
has paid 81 .ooo 600 in revenue taxes to the gov
ernment, and produced $50 100000 in precious
metals Good roads have been built to all parts
of the Territory, and substantial bridges laid
over the streams The climate is all that any
one could desire, the winters being mild and the
summers cool and pleasant. AT night, during
the hottest weather, people sleep under one or
two blankets, and scarcely require more in win-
ter. There are no epidemics in Montana, and
the inhabitants are nearly all healthy. 1t is
poor place for doctors.
The cost of reaching Montana is now so ma
terially reduced as to enable people of the most
moderate means to emigrate to this Territory.
Fares from the East to Virginia City are:
Helena weekly herald. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1867-1900, 1879-01-02

The value of the several articles, II they nao
to be bought here, would be about as follows:
Potatoes, 1886; onions, $2,352; turnips, $S5 ;
carrots, $4,000; beets, $3r5; parsnips, $22s;
satisfy, $e. 40; cabbage, $I2s. Total, $7,IS2.So.
This year the yield is much greater than ever
before, but the reports from the different COM
panies have not yet been received. 1t is fair,
however, to say that the gardens have produced
fully third more than they did in 1877. l
know of farmers in Montana who have sold
$1,000, 900, and even $1,000 worth of grain
in single year raised on farm Of I6o acres.
One nnn bought farm in Gallatin county for
81, sod and the first years crop brought him
over 500 in cash, paying for the farm and
leaving him money besides. 1t is no uncommon
thing 1or farmers to pay for their farms with
two yehrs' crops off the lands. t
Thekield of grain is prodigious. Mr.. Forbes
raised field of wheat of twenty acres, which
yielded him Sc bushels per acre. Mr.. Raymond,
Of Lewis and Clarke county, raised Io2 bushels
on each of number of acres. Mr.. Burton had
field of barley which cut 1I3 bushels per acre;
field of oats, IoI bushels, and patch OF land
in p4tatoes on which he dug 6I3 bushels per
acrel The largest yield Of wheat in Montana on
. single acre of land was 1I3 bushels These
6gurek are not fancy estimates, but sworn to by
disinterested parties, and the production Is an
actuA fact. The figures will seem astonishing
if nb impossible, to Eastern farmers, but they
are hue and can be proved if necessary. Ihe
aReAne Yield Of wheat is thirty bushels per
a. rot crops grow enormously, and

firm last year paid $4,000, and several $4,000.
There are firms that do business to the amount
of $4,000 annually. Hardly firm has failed
during the past two years, and all kinds of busi-
ness are in a Aourishing condition throughout the
Territory. The value of property in Montana
steadily increases. In 1876 and 1877 the coun-
ties figured up as follows:
Helena weekly herald. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1867-1900, 1879-01-02

This includes the cost by stage to the heart of
the Territory. Parties of emigrants who wish
to avoid staging can come by freight trains from
the end of the Utah & Northern railroad. The
cost from the terminus of the road to central
Montana is $1o to SIS, and the saving over
staging is about $50. During the summer season
persons can come by boat up the Missouri river,
taking passage at Bismarck, in Dakota. The
fare from Bismarck to Benton is-Ist class, $40,
ed class, $780, From Benton to Helena, the
Capital of the Territory, lines of stages run daily,
and the fare from Benton to Helena is SO
Light wagons and freight trains are always in at
tendance during the boating season at Benton,
and parties can come by them to Helena for
1st class, $40; ed class, $6. There is another
route into Montana by way of the Yellowstone
river, and persons wishing to settle in Eastern
Montana will find this route the most desirable.
The cost is about the same as by the Benton
route. A through connection is made by stage
from Bismarck to Bozeman, via the great Yellow
stone valley. There is still another route from
Cheyenne to Montana by way of the Big Horn
country. This route is now safe from Indians,
the country delightful to travel over, and it will
ultimately become the favorite way for parties
journeying west in wagons.
All hail the great West, the future home OF
millions, yet to be the land where the living of
to-day can find homes, wealth and happiness.
