WILL. ATTRACT SETTLERS.
Great Northern Immigration Bureau Plans
An Active Campaign.

According 20 c. t. Stone, general
passenger agent Of the Great North
ern railroad. there will be a rush of
settlers to northern Montana to secure
lands watered by government irriga.
ton projects. Mr.. Stone. who has
just returned from a visit to the Lewis
and Clark exposition at Portland, was
interviewed to this effect:
''There is one exhibit at the fair tn at
is of specia interest to Montana, and
that is the government exhibit show
ing the reclamation service 10 the west,
and in Montana in particular. By
maps, plans and outlines the great
Milk River valley reclamation scheme
is made SO plain that any one can see
and understand at a glance. Running
water is used to show just how the
land is to be reclaimed and irriy ated.
The water is raised TO an elevation
and then distributed over the 400, Geo
acres of laud that will be watered uu-
der the government system Of ir-
rigation. by one glance a person can
see and comprehend more of the gigan-
tic scheme than could be learned from
reading all the literature that could lie
printed on the subject. Montana peo-
pie should not fail TO see that exhibit
when they visit the fair.
"The work of the government is be-
ing supplemented bs the Great North
ern and our 81 passenger agents ia the
east all have the information about
the Montana lands, and they are do
ing a lot of effective work in the way
OF advertising and getting The informa-
ton before the people. We are vii.
ling to guarantee that III The neX three
years we viii bring 100. 900 new people
into Montana. The government sur-
veys have nearly all been made and
actual work on the canals will be be
gun this fall and completed ia about
two years"
The Great Northern has an excellent
scheme for providing the labor ueccs-
saly TO building the canals. "We
are going at that matter IA a way that
will benefit the h~Ume-eckers and set
tiers" said Mr.. stone. THE govern
ment will advertise for men and teams
to DO the work and the Great North
ern viii supplement hat by advertis.
ing in the farm journals of the middle
west, urging farmers sons to come
out and engage in the work. They
will be paid $3.50 a day for man and
team, and while they are working fol
the government they can take up l6(
acres of land. After working for q
year or a year and a half, when the
water is turned on, they can go on the
land. BY that scheme we a accomp'
fish Il great good. We are also work
ing to interest people in the Flathead
reservation opening and are sending
out a lot of literature about it. Be
tween the Milk river enterprise anG
the Indian reservation openings. Mon
tana will attract hundreds of thous'
ands of people. and there is coming
for the state a great wave OF pros
perity. All that Montana needs i,
more people. 1t has everything els
that goes to make a great state
