In the rapid development of the
state that is now taking place, there
is no area of the great empire that
is going forward in permanent and
substantial growth as the Milk River
valley. The broad reaches of the
fertile valley are being converted from
stock range to the enclosed ranch
and the farm, where the more inten--
sified farming is making the fertile
acres produce dollars where they have
formerly produced cents. And, with
the settlement OF the valley and the
tilling of it's productive soil, with the
constant increase in the production
of agricultural wealth, produced by a
greatly increased and constantly in
creasing population, proportsonate
growth has come to the towns of the
valley. Havre, Chinook, Harlem, NAL
ia, Glasgow, Culbertson and others
are all feeling the business impetus
giyen by the agricultural growth and
development that is taking place.
Culbertson is growing; SO is Glasgow.
They are becoming ambitious and are
looking forward to a day not so far
distant when they will be bustling ant

CUPID AGAIN BUSY

we'll satisfied with his work of the
week in Havre; but he isn't resting
in these parts-O, No: never think
that, for Cupid never rests and he
keeps his culver ever full. He was
born to work each hour of every
tWenty-four hours and repeat as long
as the world shall last
The first successful labor of Mr.,

Wednesday evening, when the Rev.

odiSt church joined the hands and
hearts of Roy Putt and Edith Van
Housen at the home of Mr.. Miller,
uncle of the bride. Many friends of
the groom were present but he IS
not SO well known in the city as is
the bride, who was one of the pop
ular marriagable girls of the city.
The marriage more than filled Mr..
Milcr's comfortable home with guests
to listen to the simple, serious cere-
mony.

BARRIERS BARELY WIN FROM CLERKS

Twas a good game, that between
the BARRIERS and the clerks of Havre,
probably the best ever witnessed on
Amusement Park diamond. Twas
for six innings and the score was 4
to 8, the BARRIERS finally winning out,
mainly by the work of Pitcher Stew
art.
At the end OF the fifth there was
a tie. After arguing a sixth inning
was played The BARRIERS made a
run and then Pitcher Stewart put out
the clerk batters in practically one,
two, three order. Another of the
main features of the game was the
rapid running of the heavy McGill,
he of the careful razor and most
sporty spirit.
There was nothing to mar interest
in the excellent game, except the
usual number of damphools who
crowd past the twenty-foot line Moth

turb this class Of cattle.

the winning run.

Three Thousand Feet Of Tunnel.

The heavy fall Of snow OF the past
week has brought work on the grade
Of the North Bank road to stand
still. All outdoor work had to be sus-
pended. Estimates recently made by
the contractors who are building the
road vary on the amount Of con struc-
tion completed on the ntire line and
run from 40 to 60 per cent 1t 10 said
that there are more tunnels In the
sec tion of the new road opposite
Memaloose island in space OF little
over a mile than on any other road
In the United State. This section
Of the road is about two miles below
Lyle and In 1t there are four tunnels
varying In length from 500 to 1900
feet. In all there 10 5000 feet Of tun-
nels with the open spaces about:equal.
ly divided between them. The esti.
mated cost Of this little more than a
mile OF road is 300, 600, exclusive Of
the trscklsying. Work was commend
ed on this expensive piece Of con-
struction about year ago at the east
ern ends of the tunnels and one of
them is completed. Six hundred feet
Of the longest one is finished and the
other two are In about the same de-
gree Of completion. IL 10 between two
Of these tunnels that an abandoned d
drift 400 feet long into the rocky bluff
was found by one OF the engineers. It
Is said by old residents near there to
have been made about is years ago by
prospecting company that thought
they had struck vein Of coal. 1t is
between Lyle and the first Of these
tunnels that the longest piece of trestle
along the Columbia river will be buili
and which is already In place and th.
ties laid. The trestle is over milt
long. --Agriculturist.

Heavy Winter in Southern Idaho.

South Idaho is experiencing the
steadiest winter this year that 1t ever
has, is the opinion of the Oldest set
tiers. For two months snow has laid
on the Snake river bottom. 1t was
never known to lay on the ground be-
fore, longer than two or three weeks
ut time. There has been less wind
than usual, but the temperature has
remained Q Id. The lowest the ther-
mometer registered In Burley 10
winter was II degrees below zero. In
the mountains the snow is much
deeper than usual, which insures
plenty of water for irrigation purpos-
90 for farms along the mountain
streams, which are dependent upon
the snowfall for their flow. In that
part of the Minidoka project which
will come under the government
ditch next spring, the settlers are
making arrangements to farm by the
"dry land" process, which proved a
success last year on the limited num-
ber OF acres planted. Burnley (Idaho,
