LANDS.
The Rich and Fertile Soil OF Judith Basin
Specially Adapted for FARMING.

To many people in the east, and
even In states adjacent to Montana,
the section comprising the Judith
Basin and land in its immediate vicin-
ity Is regarded as essentially n stock
raising district only suitable to ranch
ers making the raising Of stock the
sole means Of livelihood. This Is a
serious mistake and IL undoubtedly
the cause OF many intending settlers
who wish to reach acountry suitable
for farming purposes passing the
Judith Basin by us district nOtcon-
genial oradapted to the small farmer
The truth Is that sc little improve
ment has been made On public lands
situated in this district. In the matter
Of irrigation Oh ally extensive scale,
that its farming properties and the
richness and fertility Of the soil have
never been brought to public notice.
Many instances could be quoted Of
farmers In the vicinity Of Lewistown
who are making acomfortable living
and to spare from farm produce dis
posed OF in the markets and chan
nels Of demand In the county seat.
The raising Of hogs, which IL an
industry every thrifty farmer knows
is u profitable addition to a farm or
market garden, is virtually a snap In
a country where ten to fifteen tons oil
roots can be raised to the acre.
Heavy crops Of wheat have been
repeatedly raised on the rich and fer
tile Rock Creek bench and some Of
finest samples Of oats ever shown In
Montana have been grown In the

RcadiI, Proves That the Part is Greater
Than the Whole thereof.

The Helena Independent has been
enjoying considerable fun at the cX-
pensc Of the Helena Record the past
week, and n few days since caught up
the Record man in the following:
Some eastern newspapers have
brought out circulation liars that
made electric lights turn pale, but the
Helena Record has one who occupies
the top round Of the ladder ofabsurl
prevarlcation. Hear We him:
"The circulation Of the Montana
Daily Record IL greater than thecom-
bined circulation Of all the daily
newspapers published in Helena"
II you don't believe the Record says
that look ON page sixteen oilast Sun
days Record. Since the Record does
say that ii must he true; it would be
unpatriotic to doubt it.
There are three daily newspapers
published in Helena: The Indepen-
dent, the Herald and the Record.
The circulation Of the Record alone,
according to the Record, sis greater
than the combined circulation of" the
Record itself and the other two daily
newspapers In the city. Certainly u
most phenomenal circulation.
This Is capable Of mathematical
demonstration. II 1t were not the
Record would not make the state
ment. Forexample: Acasecontain-
ing n dozen eggs contains more eggs
than that particular case and two
other cases containing twice as many
eggs. Or again, the city Of New York
contains more men, women and chill
dren than the combined population
Of New York, Boston and Philadel-
phia. Yet again, n certain gallon
measure holds more than the COM
bined capacity OF that gallon meas
ure and two other gallon measures.

miraculous circulation the Record
should add the following curiosities:
/. The fast walker who can give
himself ten minutes start and over
take himself In half an hour.
=. The goat that III around n
tree so fast that 1t finally overtakes
and butts Itself over.
3. The engineer who built n 800.
foot tunnel through n 300-foOt hill.
l.. The ~beekeeper who crossed his
bees with fre.flies and obtained a
strain OF bees that worked Mt night,
furnishing their own light without
paying tribute to the standard OIL
trust.
). The man who escaped from the
fourth story of n burning building by
letting one foot down below the
other until he touched the ground.
q. The fast bicyclist who in going
across the country had to lay up II
week to wait for his shadow.
With this collection Of freaks the
Record will be ready to open n first
class dime museum. Its circulation

the imagination OF the intending i'm
migrant from the east run riot, the
impression being among many that
this part OF Montana, far from rail-
road communication, l. virtually
without any market for farm and
dairy produce. On the contrary the
demand for agricultural products
exceeds the supply To such an extent
that carloads oi bacon, butter, con-
densed milk and various other east
crn farm products are shipped into
Lewistown by its merchants, the
Power Mercantile Co. alone using a
carload Of condensed milk in one
year, besides an enormous amount OF
butter and smoked meats. These
statements would surely prove that
there is a ready sale for such produce
In this vicinity and II is certain that
with the immense increase of popula-
tiOn which will naturally follow the
rich mining discoveries in this section
OF the country the demand for farm,
dairy and garden produce will in
crease, making a market second to
none in the state.
