Milk River project, and the progress
referred to is the actual construction
Of the ST. Mary canal now under way.
CONTRARY to the letter received
from H. C. Rizer, acting director of
the United States Geological survey, a
letter from Senator Carter advises
us that the international negotiations
are progressing very satisfactorily.
I'VE have the orders issued by
President Roosevelt himself to the re-
clamation service to complete the con-
struction of the St. Mary canal as
rapidly as possible, and we have his
statement that if an international a.
greement is not reached by the time
the cara is completed, that the ST.
Mary water be diverted to Cut Bank
creek and to the Marias, and it is
possible yet that the Marias and St
Mary may be combined as one project
but the question is shall Havre
after several years Of patient labor
and contributions Of hundreds of dol
lars. abandon its support of the pres
ent plan in favor of a new plan, and
this with no money in the reciama'
ton fund to start new project with
in Montana.
Il do not believe that the business
men e Havre who are the main sup
porters and contributors to these funI
will consider such a proposition bu
rather believing il the practice Of TIL

Good Cattle Country

The advantages possessed by
Northern Wisconsin as place
for raising stock are becoming
rapidly known. Tuesday two
men from Peyton. Iowa, J. H.
Grower s. VIM. Pemble, brought
In two carloads of cattle, which
they purchased at st. Paul.
These will be placed on tract of
land a few milesout on the North
ern Pacific. and left to fatten dur
ing the summer. The men have
purchased a large tract of land
and will fence in a section,
which they will use for pasture.
These men are heavily interest
ed in cattle in Iowa and have
been attracted to Northern Wis
consin by the great grass here.
They are of the opinion that
this country has great future
ahead in bringing cattle here in
the spring. and letting them fat
ten, selling them in the fall.
There are about sixty head of
cattle in the shipment which was
just brought in and they were
picked up in st. Paul. A large
mum Der of them are yonng cat
tie and all of them are in poor
flesh and were picked up in ST.
Paul at reasonable price. The
Iowa men figure that by giving
them three or four months on
the famous grass of northern
Wisconsin they will be in first
class shape by the end of the
season and they will make a nice
profit on the deal. After the
land is once fenced there is no
cost in the matter beside the
price of the cattle and these men
say that there is big money in
this business and think it is to
be a great item in the develop
of Northern Wisconsin,
