IMMIGRATION is HEAVY
HUNDREDS OF HOME SEEKERS
..., SETTLE IN MONTANA VALLEYS
United States Commissioners of Mon
%, tana Says Influx VIII Be
Greater Next Year, Thann.ll-
t''H7 10 noB9l Ever Before.

W. w Woodbridge, United States COM
missioner at Hinsdale, Mont, is in the
city, and yesterday. in speaking of the
influx of settlers into that state, said:
Unusual interest IS being manifested
throughout Montana in the matter of the
settlement and agricultural development
of the state. Heretofore there has been
considerable opposition in the state. and
added to this a certain amount o pref
udiee against irrigation has existed
among those throughout the East who
were looking for homes. Both these
have resulted in causing people to pass
through, Montana. A change, however,
has been taking place, and irrigation is
now looked upon with much more favor,
especially since Secretary Hitchcock and
President Roosevelt have Endorsed it.
I There promises to be an unusually
heavy immigration movement to Mon
tana the coming year. The Great North
ern railway has been doing a great deal
tc advertise the state. Many new set
tiers arrived during last season, and
they have been a good example to their
Eastern, friends.
To demonstrate the fertility of the soil
in the Milk River valley, the Great
Northern established a small expert
mental station at Hinsdale during the
present year. The yield of the various
grains and vegetables was phenomenal.
A display has been made at the general
immigration offices in Chicago that has
attracted a. great deal of attention 1t
has been arranged to carry on the ex-
pertinent on a. larger scale next year,
that the settlers arriving during the sea-
son may have proof of the productive
ness of this section of the State..,,-
Irrigation in Northern. Montana has
been upon a cooperative basis each
farmer owning the amount of water nee
essary to- trrigate his farm. At the
little town of Chinook some $4,000 acres
of land ARE now being reclaimed repre-
senting an investment of $3.50, 0OO0.s A. new
reolony ehas within the past year been
started at Hinsdale, In Valley county,
100 miles east of Chinook. Satisfactory
progress has been made and asco-opera-
tive company has been organized to re-
claim no. e0e acres Of land. 81 L6{4
