LAND SowN TO GRAIN.

According to statistics and the most
conservative estimates, there are ljO.-
WDO acres Of land sown to grain in the
Judith basin this year. Of this 100000
acres is in wheat. and the estimated pro-
duction of this grain this season is B..
OO. 900 bushels These figures are some
what startling when compared with
previous years. but that it is rather con-
sentative is SHOWN by the fact that re-
turns show that 10000 acres of raw
land was plowed last fall ana sown to
winter wheat. This means that if an
average of so cents a bushcl is received
by the farmers for their wheat. the yield
will bring in $2.4O0.OOO. With the high
prices prevailing for oats and other grain
the total represented by the entire crop
will he very handsome one. Agri-

THE INEVITABLE CHANGE
From Live Stock Raising to Agricultural De-

From Live Stock Raising to Agricultural De-
veiopment.
In the last few weeks there have
been several transfe vt large
tracts Of land that heretofore have
been the property of wealthy ranchers.
and which have been used as range
country. Among these large sales
may he mentioned. the Suddith ranch,
the N-lsar ranch, the Cruise holding,
and other large parcels in the upper
Judith Basin. The land has nearly all
been sold to eastern parties. many of
which are capitalists.
This statement Of real estate trans
fers although simple. carries with it Il
significance that is not cOmprehendetl
except by the close observer Of the
trend Of civilization. 1t mark
an epoch in the history If

evolution that will soon change the
customs OF the people and will have
it's direct effect upon the industries
and business Of the whole state.
What business in this evolution:

and the stories Of success and wealth
that constantly issue from the west.
there has been fostered II prevalent
demand for agricultural land in west

LAW ON FENCING.

An interesting feature Of the damage
suit Of ). II. Locke against the Great
Northern railroad, in which the plain.
tiff sued T" recover $3.50 for stock killed
along the defendants right Of way anu
was awarded q Judgment Of $3.50, Is
the decision of Judge Leslie that the
law which requires domestic corpora.
tions to fence the rights Of way is UNI
constitutional. The constitutionality Of
the law is said to lie in requiring do
nestle corporations to fence rights Of
way. and not requiring foreign corpor-
ations to do so. domestic corporations
are bur,lened in manner that foreign
corporations are not. This suit brought
by Locke was against the Montana Cen
trail railway. a Montana corporation.
The plaintiff sued to recover for the
killing of - steer. IL COW and horse by
the defendants train.
Negligence was alleged on the part
of the defendant in the killing of each
Of the animals. hut the court decided
that the only possible negligence dis
played was in the killing Of the steer,
and the case went to the jury on that
count.
Since the passage of the act requir-
ing domestic corporations to fence their
rights of way. and not imposing the
same burden ON foreign corporations,
the matter of the const ituti ona!ity of the
law has not been raised, it is believed,
in the Montana courts.

Plans are now under way for the
erection of splendid high school
building that will be the pride of
every resident of the district in which
Judith Gap is located. But the peo-
pie will have Il chance to vote OH just
the kind of a building they want.
The trustees have selected IA site on a
high point where the building will
show off to advantage to people
passing through on the trains, and
the structure ought to be substan-
tial one large enough to meet the
demands of the district for the next
five years ut least.

recognized this demand. and knowing
that there will be tremendous in
hux of people into the west in year
or two, they have purchased large
tracts, with intention Of cutting them
up In small farms, and then entering
upon extensive colonization schemes
to realize on the investment.
That this is the logical outgrowth
of affairs, and the impending evOlu-
ton of Montana, no one will deny.
Already the trend of the new civili-
cation, the new regime, can be seen
and felt. The unprecedented influx
Of settlers into Montana during the
last year has had its inevitable effect
upon the open range country. The
cowboy and his calling are fast be-
coming obsolete. The new era marks
the end of old roundups. The shacks
of the homesteader and the settler
already begin to dot the range, and
the ranchman who depended OH his
heard of cattle, horses, or sheep, has
found himself suddenly and un-
tremendously folcel out of business
by reason of lack of the range coun-
try.
In many cases the stockman has
fought desperately against the stream
and discouraged all efforts at settle
ment. He has destroyed land marks
lie has never made known to the
world the richness of the soil. He
has ever told the newcomer that it
would be impossible to raise anything
but stock in this country. He con-
soles himself with the idea that the
new settler will have to make stock
raising an important part of the
farming, and if he does not, the lack
of profits will force many speedy re-
linquishments, and thus bring about
partial restoration to former range
conditions. But in spite of efforts
and vain hopes the oldtime stockman
who depend largely OH free range is
being rapidly forced to accept condi-
tions rs they are. and the picturesque
cowboy make way for the horny hand

1t is popularity supposed that every
man, barring few crazy ones who
60 the suicide route, places a high
value OH his life. But it is Il fact that
the average man is reckless with his
life. Not one man in Il hundred takes
proper care of himself. Not one in
fifty does as well in this particular as
his line of work permits. Not one in
fifty does at well in this particular as
he knows. And there is considerable
ignorance and superstition and ira
dition which stands in the way of
proper care of the human body. If
men would learn more Of themselves
and apply the knowledge there would
be slim picking for the doctors.

cipate in the exposition. The Indians
were in full war dress, the dispatch
states, and the cowboys were probab-
ly made up in true Dustin Farnum

and cowboys have little to do with
the resources and advantages of the

PRACTICAL
ROAD MAKING
University e. tension Trains Highway

One Of the mos popular and profit,
able courses given by the University
Extension I ivtsion Of the University
of Wilson's - is that 10 Highway Con
struction The purpose of this course
is to give highway officials and other
who have TIE responsibility of bu III
ing and maintaining public roads IN
the state, IN opportunity to acquire II
thorough and up-to-date knowledge of
the best material and best methods to
be employed IN their work Hereto
fore, many Of the officials charged
with road construction. and road
maintenance, have been Obliged to de-
pend largely upon the experience OF
the people IN their own town. These
practices ana experiences are natural

not been broad and complete enough.
and enormous sums Of public money
have been wasted.
While this course was not given
until January, 1908, the results have
already Become apparent In many
parts Of the state In the hetter use o.
the money given for highway con
struction. Citizens and public olIicia $
of Wisconsin who have charge OF the
work Of making roads in the state are
Taught. without Zee, and are thJrged

which ARE used in correspondence,
amounting ia but - cents. The course
consists of sixteen lessons.
After discussing the primary con

head are cons.aerad three elements
which enter into the making of Il

A searching study Is made Of the
various kinds of road machinery

UNIVERSITY
TEACHES BY MAIL
New Extension Division Gives Tnstruc-
ton i'm Many Subjects by
Correspondence.

In teaching ~ correspondence, the
University OF Wisconsin has one great
advantage over the ord nary CONNER.
cial correspondence schools. The Uni
yersity itself in its own halls, con
ducts a summer school of six weeks
in which the instruction IL given by
the same men In the same halls. us ng
the same laboratories and llbrar es
which are used In the regular work.
All these appliances are open to the
correspondence students during the
summer.
As an illustration OF the practical
method of this work, we may take
the instruction of young artisan, or
mechanical engineer In the work OF
his calling the University offers to
him through the year 40 weeks Of In.
struction by correspondence. AT tie
conclusion Of that time he may come
to the University and reee We six
weeks of very practical instruction hS
the mon under whom he has b., II
studying during the year. The great
machine shops and laboratories OF the
University will be open to him. Early
each morning he will receive inStruc-
ton by lectures in the theory OF me
chanlcs and engineering, and win
spend the remainder Of the morn ne
at the lathes, forges, engines, testing
machines, etc, In practical test Of the
theories explained to him early in the
day. In the afternoon he viii follow
the methods of the morning. In th g
way theory and practice 60 together
to secure the best possible training.

It is these practical methods Of
teaching which convinced the mem
bers Of the Mosely educational com
mission that the Wisconsin University
was the most useful to the people Of
all the great unly arsities of the couD-
try, and this means that Ii is the most
useful to the people of any university
IN the world.
The University OF Wisconsin pcog
nizes the fact that knowledge is
power only wheh one knows now 10
use It." The Extension Division I'M
derstands this fact apd has as its key
note the determination to make the
University Of the greatest service TO
all the people by methods that are at
once direct and simple and selected
with sole referelce to their effective
ness IN the cause Oh pOpulaF euucAtlon-
In its statemt mt this seems more
easy than 1t Is In practice. Nearly
every university in the country has
been bound by oi1 traditions which
have made II seem undgnlfied for pro
fessors IN great institutions to spend
their time in practical work to train
themselves TO Impair their knowledge
in simple. everyday language. The
revolution in all educational methods
that is being made by the work OF the
University Of Wisconsin can hardly be
overestimated.
