A CHANCE YoR OUR RANcHxEN.

In our local columns will he found
mention of the visit to this section
OF MIR. Wilcox. of the Cataract Mill
company Of Great Falls. This gentle
man came into the Basin for the pur-
pose of seeing what could he done in
the way of interesting our ranchmen
in wheat growing. This Is matter
OF great Importance to our ranchmen
and our county in general. 1t has
been satisfactorily demonstrated
that good. hard Fife wheat can he
raised in Montana. The trouble or
mist axe has been in not securing it for
seed. at least such is the case in this
county. "Club wheat, for chicken
feed" is about the only kind our
ranchmen have tried. Now, this stuff
should be cast aside and a start made
in the right direction. The Mill CON-
pany at the Falls are going to give
them an opportunity to make
change. They propose to furnish all
with seed wheat al the lowest price it
can be- laid down at the Falls. and to
those who have not got the cash time
will lie given in which to pay for the
seed.
Mr.. Wilcox feels confident that
the Manito ba branch railroad will
reach the Basin next summer, or he
would not hold out the inducements
that he does. Should this prove to
be true our ranchmen will find a mar
ket for all the wheat they can raise.
The Great Falls mill is now running
steadily ON Montana wheat but the
supply is not sufficient to keep the
mill in constant operation. Two ear
loads OF hard wheat were disposed of
to ranchmen in the vicinity OF the
Falls, last winter from which good
crops were RAISED. Some of the wheat
was superior to the seed. Early sow
ing is very essential to secure good
crops.
We trust our ranchmen will avail
themselves OF the opportunity that
will be presented as We believe they
will uitin,otsiy be wsll paid io~ sl,-i-
expense and trouble.
Fergus County argus. [volume] (Lewistown, Mont.) 1886-1946, 1888-10-25

or's returns show only 80, i6s head OF
stock cattle altogether.
Thus. it will he seen. that while
the range cattle industry is on the
decline and yearly returning less
revenue irtO the county treasury
and into the channels OF business, the
sheep industry is on the increase and
giving every evidence OF permanently.
The severe losses Of the past can
never be repeated owing to the pro-
vision made for ilOcks against winter
storms in the shape Of shesls and feel.
We have no desire to make unfa-
vOrable comparison. or to arouse
antagonism. There is room in Fergus
county forall. Thousands OF acres OF
grass will go to waste on our bench
lands and in our valleys this year
that could have been turned into
money. and we trust the time is not
far distant when our cattle can
again be counted on a thousand hills.
But figures are sOmetim solemn midi
Gators and stubborn facts. Wool
growing is our chief industry today
and the Indications are that it is here
to stay. Within five years Fergus
county will contain hall II million
head Of sheep.

NOT SATISFACTORY.

Assessing property and collecting
poll tax have not been reduced to u
science. Ii every man was honest the
difficulty would he solved in n large
mea slIre. as it is the truthful must
bear more than their share of taxa
ton to maint ain government.
The returns made by our county
assessor are not altogether satisfac-
tory, though he may have faithfully
performed his duties. The assess-
ment roll is surprise to many, and
there are things that seem strange.
Last year there were 1854 watches
and clocks in the county, this year
there appears To he-nnlN - there j.
l piece OF iewelry and IL pieces of gold
and silver plate. But it is in reference
to grain and cattle that we wish to
call attention. The value OF gram
returned is placed ut Si37. Now, this
seems very light when it is considered
that fully one-half of last years crop
was still i'm the hands of growers or
the warehouses OF local merchants.
Three ranchmen in this county turned
in $500 bushels Of oats, or $4,000
thousand pounds, which, figured at
so cts. per hundred, would bring the
sum of $476. more than the total
amount returned by the assessor.
This would seem to Indicate that but
very few OF those having grain on
hand let the assessor know anything
about il.
1t is also claimed by well Informed
men that there are 10000 head Of
cattle owned by ranchmen in the
county, independent OF the various
associations. whether this is correct
or not we are not prepared to say, yet
we feel like many Others. that the
total Of 80, 1863 head is too small by
n number OF thousands.

Willard, in his speech at the st. Paul
banquet, said: II believe that Mon
tana is going to be II greater state
than Colorado. When it is considered
that Montana has II population OF
I 900; that it could NOT have been
developed more rapidly be.ause it has
hitherto had poor railway facilities.
when it is considered that the North
ern Pacific has bull, eight lines in that
territory. and that the Northern
Pacific and MIR. Hill stand ready to
expedite the growth OF Montana, I do
not hesitate tn say that in six years
