Artesian Wells.

As Montana is greatly interested in
these OVERLOOKING wells, it may not be
out of place and time to state where and
how these wells were named, and what
causes them to flow. They were named
from hay ing been first and long known
and used in the Province Of Artois, in
France, Their principle is the same as
an artificial fountain. Thus. imagine a
somewhat basin-shaped bed Of sand,
chalk or any rock of a porous nature. to
lieupon a stratum of clay impermeable to
water, and to Be covered by another
stratum equally impermeable. The
former bed, being saturated to a greater
extent by the water which flows into it
from its higher and exposed edges-a
billy region, perhaps, where rain falls in
abundance becomes a reservoir, which,
if an opening is bored down into it
through the everything clay, will dis
charge its waters upwards, with force
determined BY the level at which they
are kept IN the reservoir, the rate at
which they can percolate through it's
substance, and the size of the orifice; and
in proportion as this reservoir is tapped
by the borer, must the supply it affords
on its upper margin be diminished.

The parade of the Broom Brigade" was
perfect, showing careful drill, reflecting
great credit on those who inaugurated

formances. Mrs. Lester Wilson's solos
were as usual, unequalled, as was the sing

all that they might meet her in Heaven.
Now that her life's work is done-her
prayers ended-yet, her faith and life

Over twenty years in this new land
she had brayed the hardships of a pioneer

Bozeman. A few weeks ago, he became
tired of his lonesome life and to0k in q
partner named Thomas Day. to share his
warm cabin and assist in eating his grub.
Day is an Englishman of the Cockney
order of architecture and soon longed
for the good cheer of the ale house. Con-
sequently he got up one morning, came
to Bozeman and for two weeks enjoyed a
prolonged and vigorous, "toot." Arthur
one day last week came to town to stay
all night and here met his whilom "pard"
Upon reaching his abode the next day
Arthur found that his cabin had been
broken into, his clothes, watch and other
property to the amount Of 500 worth
gone. Inasmuch as the Englishman has
not since been seen, Arthur labors under
the opinion that he is guilty and has
gone beyond his reach.

Joseph Kountz received last Monday
two car loads of stock hogs, which will
be offered for sale. This is new depar-
ture, and one of considerable interest.
There can be no reason why a market
cannot be made for large quantity of
grain by Investing in hogs. The cheap
est and best way of getting it to market
would be in bacon, hams and lard, great
quantities of which are annually brought
to our territory. Grain which could not
otherwise be marketed could be utilized in
the manner spoken of. Our advice to
farmers would be to invest few dollars
in hogs.
