New M. &. st. l.. Line Taps
Land of Promise

After a drive Of 100 miles thru terri
tory which will be reached by the new
extension Of the Minneapolis g. st. Louis
road, A. B. Cuts, general passenger and
ticket agent, has returned much inn
pressed with the opportunities in the
country which his line is to tap.
Mr.. Cults drove thru Faux county
forty.twO miles and back, with several
side excursions. 1t was his purpose to
secure material for advertising purposes.
He will make future trips to cover the
entire extension of $50 miles.
The new road is known as the Mime
sofa. Dakota 81 Pacific. The line will
start from Watertown, striking La Beau
at the river, thence will proceed north
westerly thru Aberdeen to Leola.
The line will pass through the finest
agricultural and stockraising district

eryone who goes out there is wildly en-
thusastic. The most magnificent farms
Imaginable can be seen anywhere. They
are all one section or more in size, and
one can cultivate more land than any:
where else, because it is 50 level and
there are no trees. A man can plow
across a section without turning. Some
of the farmers plow only once in three
years. They SOW the land and stubble in
with disc harrows.

plowed from one end to the other. The

Vines as Screens

The first thing IS to take a surves of
the new premises. 1t will always be the
case that there are some features to be
concealed, and also some TO be beauti-
fed aud improved. The first must be
considered. Is there tumble-dOwn

summer house TO cover or trellises to re-
store to their former state of beauty? If
so. they demand the first attention. Use

ing glory, and any Of the ornamental
gourds. Any Of these planted as late as
the first Of June in very rich soil and
kept freely watered will make quick
growth, and by the middle Of summer
make fine showing If tue soil is not

rich it with one-third its bulk of well
rotted cow manure and run the spade
down deep in digging, even if some of
the subsoil comes up with it.
The next thing to consider is the mat
of screening, and the making of imita-
tion shrubbery. If the back yard or
vegetable garden is unsightly or it is de-
sired to cover any feature OF the garpen
with a screen, plant rather closely Ga
foot apart Ricinis, or castor bean.
These must have soil the same as the
climbing vines, and in addition be well
mulched as soon as the dry season ar
rlves, and they will require a great guam
tity Of water to stimulate them into
quick growth. By midsummer they
should form screen or hedge, or what
ever shape they are planted in, six feet
high, and impervious to the sight

1000 laborers for this work and intend

Lovelockers are the lucky holders
of property which is now causing the
big excitement near Wahuska, at the
new camp called Buckskin. Vim Ken
nedy, formerly of Lovelock. was one
of the discoverers of the rich vein
there and is one OF the holders of the
mines and townstes. Some two years
ago, Mr.. Kennedy started for the
southern country on prospecting
trip. He was outhtted for this trip
by w. G. Pitt, on whose ranch he had
been foreman for some time, and Mr..
Pitt has been heavily interested in his
finds ever since.
Upon his return trip Mr. Kennedy,
with man named Campbell. discover
ed the now famous Buckskin lode
The town vas named from buckskin
horse which Mr.. Kennedy had taken
on the trip from here and which he
was riding when he made the find.
Upon determining its richness ne
wired to Mr.. Pitt TO come at once.
Mr. Pitt returned from a trip to that
camp the frat of the week, and saws
it is sure a hummer. The porphyry
dyke which carries the values is forty

THE BAND CONCERT
PRONOUNCED SUCCESS
Attendance Not As Large as it
Should Have Been.
Program Contained Many Good Num-
bers of Song, Dialogue, Recitation
and Other SpeciaIties.

The audience in attendance at the
band concert last Saturday evening
was much smaller than the merit of
the program deserved. The estab-
lishment and maatainance of a good
band in town is something which
every citizen should take an interest
in. By the exercises Saturday even
ing the present band demonstrated
that they are doing good work.
1t has been FIVE months since the
work Of organizing and training was
started. The expense of buying new
instruments, music, instructor, lights
and fuel and other necessary expenses
have all been horne by the individual
members The public has not been
solicited for single cent. and the
entertainment was given Saturday
night so that the public might get
value received for what they wished
to contribute and that the boys might
in measure recover portion OF
their expenditures.
The receipts of the evening were
S53 90. The expenditures We're for
hall rent $500, printing and adver-
tising $2 SO, making total of Sl7.5O
This left net income of $500,
which will square the Incidental ex-
penses of the hand to date and give
little surplus for purchasing music

SHOULD HAVE A
TELEPHONE EXCHANGE
Many Telephone Systems in Love-
lock Valley Should Have
Central Office.
Would Increase Efficiency Of Pres
ent Systems and Encourage
Building New Lines.

While there are many telephone
lines in this town and valley, yet
there is no central office and no chance
TO communicate from one line to the
other. These lines have been built
by Individuals From town office or
residence to ranch or to some adioin-
ing office, etc, until there is quite a
network of wires in the town and val
ley. which usually convey messages
only between two points.
While some may not desire to be
connected in a central Office, yet the
majority would be in favor of il.
Several have spoken to the TRIBUNE
man about it this week This does
not necessarially mean the consolida-
tion of all the lines, but merely their
connection with some central office
here in town. BY this means the one
line would give the owner access to
MANY other points and give much
better service than under the present
system. The merchant who has a
line from the store or shop to ranch
would have line to manv other
ranches and would be apt to receive
orders from ali of them. instead of
from just one.
These suggestions ara offered to
set the ball rolling" for the general
benefit of the town and valley.
