A NEW YEAR GREETING.
An Old Benton County BOY Wrises From
Far Away Montana.

81 +-tFaAH .'-'''ftttAN.f
Dear Editor: Your paper just
received and read. It Is eucOuraa-
ing to note that you are all cheerful
and happy. We think You on. just
ly entitled 10 o rest for at least one
week, so we give our consent, and
send this as a new year greeting.
The weather here is quite warm
at present for Montana The snow
in the valley Bitter Root Valley
has about gone, and the ground is
fast thawing 1t has been frozen
about l6 inches, so you can realize
that there is plenty of mud here.
The mercury for about two weeks
past registered about zero I'm this
section, while in the eastern part
of the State it has been about 20
degrees below zero.
This is a beautiful, fertile valley
The soil produces so beautifully
that one can hardly believe his own
eyes. Think of a rancher harvest
ing from 40 to 90 bushels of wheat
and from 70 to 100 bushels of oats
per acre, and that IN sight of snow
the year round. That looks like a
big story to a Tennessean, but it is
a fact nevertheless.
Fruits Of the finest kind GROW in
the valley, and we have horses chat
equal anything in the world for
trotting and pacing and running.
AT Hamilton, a little town Of about
seven years and about $500 popu-
lation, is one of the largest, in fact
by far the largest saw-mill this
scribe ever saw. The company
ships as high as thirty and forty
cars of lumber per day, and EN-
ploys more than a hundred men.
1t is a wonder to an ordinary man.
Apples, potatoes (Irish) 3, hay, cat
tie, grain and lumber are the chief
products Of the valley.
/ might give a full description of
the valley, but must desist as some
one prefers that / say a word about
finance. Money is more plentiful
here than in the South, but at the
same time it cosls more to live; yet
a man who has grit, energy and
rigid economy in his makeup, can
succeed here.
The gold and silver mines in this
country are being worked more anC
more each year. The sheep indus.
try is quite an enterprise here, anc
a flock of 10000 would open the
eyes of most Tennesseans. The
coyotes are fond of sheep, so a man
and his dogs must keep watch over
the flock day and night.
| This scribe is pleased to note thai
Judge Bond is so highly spoken ot
for governor of Tennessee, but, tc
be sure, all of Benton's sons woulC
feel proud to have our Joseph u
Jones to sit in the gubernatoria
chair for two years.
Wishing you Happy New Yea
and kindly asking the correspond
ents to write oftener, I am as eve
