President Of Montana Stock Growers
Association on Leasing.

Captain "Joe" Brown. president of
the Montana Stock Growers associa-
ton and member of the state board of
irrigation, was at Helena a few days
ago and submitted to the inevitable
interview. He expressed himself as in
favor of the leasing proposition, but
under certain conditions, realizing, he
said, that the overstocl:ing and con-
t1icts between sheep and cattlemen
are calculated to work to the detri-
ment of the range interests. At the
same time he also agrees with the ad-
vocates of increased settlement, say
ing he fully appreciates the fact that
the state needs more settlers.
"There are vast areas of land in
the northwest that will never be fit
for anything but range" he said.
"Such land could be leased to cattle
and sheepmen, without infringing on
settlers right. The homestead priv
ilege is sacred, but the homesteader
has no use for the kind of land that
requires 20 acres to pasture a steer.
I am opposed to illegal fencing. Either
the fences now up should come down
or receive the sanction of the law by
leases. Montana is ON record for a
just and equitable lease law, which
will protect the interests of rich and
poor.
"There is plenty of room for both
range and granger interests in Mon
tana, but the latter must look to the
opening of the Indian reservations.
In the Big Horn valley are vast areas
suitable for farming, as soon as the
Indians have been bought out. The
Grow reservation is an ideal spot. The
Tongue valley is too narrow for large
irrigation operations, but the great
Yellowstone valley offers an inviting
field for investment. Here, however
effort by Uncle SANS or combined
capital will be necessary. Eventually
great water companies will spread the
moisture now rushing down the Vel
lowstone wastefully over the adjacen
valley, and create vast agricultural
wealth.
"Fifteen per cent of the total area O
Montana can be irrigated by individ
ual effort, but if the federal govern
ment could be induced to make irriga
tion national enterprise this are;
could be increased to 40 per cent
"Private enterprise can never waite
our fertile uplands but Uncle San
could accomplish that feat. 1 am ;

1000 acres under ditch. No, do no
raise alfalfa, preferring blue joint. I
does not yield as abundantly as alfalf;
but for feeding purposes one ton Q
blue joint is as valuable as three Q
alfalfa.'
"How about reseeding the ranges?'
was asked.
'Rot!' retorted the captain disgust
edly. GA lot of down east agriculture
editors and college professors VIII
never saw the range are responsible
for that drivel. The only way to re
seed the range is to give it a rest. Th
grass will soon regain its pristin
vigor. If we should have anothe
winter like 1S85-87 the range will ge
an opportunity to recuperate. Cattl
raisers up here can, however, say
range grass by wintering a part Q

MAKE A DECIDED HIT.
FORSYTH MinStrelS Afford Much Fun for
Well=filled House.

The Forsyth Minstrels fairly scin-
evening at Alexander's hall, and the
large audience that greeted them in
their efforts was very lavish of its APP
p1ause. The chorus of the entire
troupe is magnificent and the harmon
ious blending of the many voices
showed a great deal of careful train
ing.
The entertainment, which lasted
about two hours, consisted of singing,
dancing, a farce and numerous solos
and specialties which made it far
ahead of many professional shows.
Shortly after eight o'clock the cur
tain rose with the entire troupe of
dusky impersonators before the au-
dience. w. E. Dowlin acted in the
capacity of interlocuter and Tom But
Ter, E. E. Denis, H. Thornton and
Bert Coleman as end men, while w.
w. D. Terrett, X. p. Huss, Frank
Huss, DR.. Klein, r. ]. Cole and Clay
LICK mdQe up the CnOruS.
After an overture duet by Mrs. J.
Eckles and Miss Ethel Waddngham,
which was received with marked ap-
plause, E. E. Denis came forth with a
song, "Aint Dat a Shame,' and was
assisted in the chorus by the other
members of the company. Mr.. Denis
showed hi,,,Sa1f r.,1% %O No
as did his assistants and the rendition
was received with liberal encore from
the audience. r. p. Huss was next
on the program, and his song, ''I've a
Longing in my Heart" was greatly
appreciated, for Mr.. Huss has an ex-
cellent voice, especially for this class
of music. ''Melancholy Mose," which
was sung by Tom Butler. was very
we'll received and Mr.. Buffers make
up as the ''Wild Man From Borneo,'
was superb, and he with his custom
ary pranks afforded much amusement
for the audience. w. w. d. Terrett
rendered a song, 'Absence Makes the
Heart Grow Fonder.,,' At this Mr..
Terrett acquitted himself to the entire
satisfaction of everyone as was evil
denced by the lavish applause he re-
ceived. H. Thornton sung GA Water
melon Party being assisted in the
chorus by the other members of the
troupe. This brought forth liberal ap-
plause and before Mr.. Thornton re-
tired to his seat, he had the assurance
that his efforts were to no avail.
Next was duet, "Song of the
South,' by Huss Brothers. This rem
dition brought out the fact that For
syth people know good thing when
they hear it and displayed their ap-
probation in the usual form. This
part was concluded by an instrument
tai solo by Miss Ethel Waddingham.
The young lady is no novice at the
piano and received liberal applause.
Part two was started off by an in
strumental duet by Messrs. E. M.
Huff with guitar and Bert Coleman
with the banjo. Both gentlemen s
ability with their respective instru-
ments seems to be so we'll known that
comment OF their renditions is super
tlous. They were followed by Mr..
Thornton who kept his hearers spell
bound for some time "discussing and
cussing the various topics of the day. .
He is gifted with an unprecedented
vocabulary and-and-did remark
