THE ENTERPRISE force extend s
thanks to H. G. Cowan of Cowan, for
a very large and delicious Northwest
muskmelon. The melon was of the
Russian variety, rich yellow in col
or, perfectly smooth, very meaty
and resembled somewhat an enor-
nous cucumber in shape. Mr.. Cowan
informs us he has grown the North
west muskmelon very successfully,
without irrigation, for the past three
years and despite the hot, dry sea son
last year, they developed and ma
tured. This year he has sufficient
quantity TO offer them for sale, as well
as the seed. His experience in the
culture of this melon proves that the
variety is particularly adapted to the
dry climate of Northern Montana.
County Commissioner Andrew
Davidson of Malta was down in thes e
parts last Friday and Saturday. Mr..
Davidson went north few miles be-
You'd Medicine Lake to look after
some private business matter. 81
never saw such crops" Mr.. David =
son said on his return. 81 do not see
how they could be better. 1t is GER
tainly revelation to me to see such
crops and the great acreage there is
under cultivation" Mr.. Davidson,
who is still extensively engaged in
sheep raising continued, "There
must have been a great range for
sheep in the Medicine Lake country
before the farmers came here. Well
the stockmen had good thing and
evidently they made the most of it
while they had the opportunity. Let
the farmers now have what is their
due" Mr.. Davidson left for Malt
on the special train which brought
in the Senator's Irrigation commit
tee. He was the guest of Senator
Carter as far as Malta.-Culberts on
