A PLAN OF ACTION
Decided Upon at Meeting of tho Irri-
CATION Congress Committee.

Missoula, April 4.-The executive
commission of the irrigation congress
convention met tonight at the Stand
ard office and outlined plan of action.
The finance committee will at once be-
gin the accumulation of funds neces-
sary TO carry through successfully the
meeting of the congress next fall The
date of meeting has been fixed as Sep
TENDER Is, and plans will be put into
effect at once to properly advertise the
meeting and secure a good attendance
from abroad. The meeting is of utmost
importance to Missoula and to all Mon
tana. 1t will bring to the state a class
of men who will do the agricultural in
terests much good by their eXamina-
ton and criticism of systems now in
use here. The resources of Western
Montana will be understood thoroughly
by men whose idea of Montana is now
that it is solely a mining state. There
should be a liberal and general response
to the finance committee tomorrow
The sum that is to be raised is not large
and Missoula will never have an oppor-
tunity to accomplish as much good as
easily again. The congress will be the
most important meeting that has
ever assembled in the state
and Missoula should appreciate the hon
or of having been selected as the
place of meeting. The city is now bound
to take good care of the congress and
there must be a hearty cooperation
among all business men and farmers in
this end of the state. Thus far every
body has taken hold of the matter with
a will and the outlook is excellent for
| the complete success of the congress
| The attendance promises to be large
| and enthusiastic. Missoula may put hel
| best foot forward and see that the
! guests receive a good impression of the
| country.

earnestly to be even more
thorough in their work during
the next term; yet there are
a number of pupils who are not
attending closely to school du-

quested to see that all children
