Homestead Lands

4 statistical table prepared by w.
w. Palmer of the U. S. land office
at Miles City shows that Montana
has within her boundary lines 49,
532, AS acres Of public lands upon
which homeseekers can file; $780,
$50 acres were taken up from July
/, 1907 20 Jan l, 1909. At this rate
of settlement it would take IL years
for all the land remaining to be un-
der private ownership. This period,
however, will undoubtedly be short
ened, as many more homeseekers
will come to Montana during the
coming year than have in the period
just passed.
Of this acreage still open for set
Element in Montana. a large percent
age is located in the territory tribu-
tary to G,endive. The Yellowstone
valley has thousands of acres Of the
most fertile land in the state which
is to be had for the asking, and up
on which rye, oats, wheat, barley,
ETC., can be raised in great quaint
ties. Vegetables of all kinds, such
as tomatoes, peas, sweet corn, po-
tatoes and sugar corn will grow in
profusion. Apples, plums, straw
berries and other small fruit is pro-
duced that is the equal Of any raised
in the established fruit belts. Good
water is easily obtainable, and the
other natural advantages all com
bine to make this valley ideal for
farming purposes.
A large number Of settlers who
have taken up homesteads, and the
constantly increasing stream of new
arrivals, leaves no hesitancy in stat
ing that the lands in this valley will
soon be entirely absorbed, and a
thriving and prosperous agricultu-
raj district firmly rooted.

Sees Big Loss In Payne Bill

Manila, March %. Officials of the
insular government, members of the
Philippine assembly and others in
close touch with the affairs of the
Philippine government are seriously
concerned over the loss in revenue
which will result flom the establish
ment of the reciprocal free trade be-
tween the islands and the United
States under the provision of the
Payne tariff bill. 1t is feared that the
deficit for the first year due to the
decrease in custom revenues will ap-
proximate 5000, 900 pesos (s2, 500, :
OOO), and that it will increase: from
year to year with the growth Of Ameri-
can imports.
Il these closer trade relations with
the United States restore the islands
to prosperity it will become possible
later to impose direct taxation to
cover the deficiencies. In the mean
time it is feared that the Phil
ippines will suffer seriously during the
readjustment period, and that the
government will be forced, in all
probability, to abandon many of the
important public works it has under
taken.

IRRIGATION CONGRESS
IS WORKING HARD

tributed and nearly 100000 acres al
ready TO over a million dollars. The
success obtained may be said to JUS
iify the hopes of the most enthusias-
lie OF the early advocates of the recla

The nation is concerned In this
work, not only because of the result
ing internal development, but also be.
cause of the Improvement in citizen

stitutions."
Mr.. Newell said that while the gov
ernment has done much in irrigation
work, private capital has also made
great advances and possibly at pres
ent five or ten times as large an in
vestment in the aggregate Is being
made by corporations in building ir-
riSation works as is being invested
by the government. Much of this
investment. however has been made
possible or at least has been stimu-
lated by the government work., he
said. The fact that the national gov
ernnent has deemed it wise to take
up the matter has been one OF the
strongest arguments appealing to
capitalists to do likewise.
There. is no composition as be-
tween national and private funds, but
rather an attempt at all time on the
part of the government to stimulate
legitimate enterprise through obtain
ing facts upon which investments
might be safely made and to avoid
taking up snch work as could be hand
led successfully by others.

larger than was expected upwards of

the introduction of the letters but he
was overruled.

SOME OF ExcURsIONisTs
RETURN FROM PINE LODGE

Except those who went to stay a
week or more, the party of excursion
lists that went to Pine Lodge Saturday
returned yesterday, practically all OF
them getting in after the noon hour.
All report a good time in spite OF the
fact that 1T was a harder trip than
they had anticipated. The caravan OF
five cars that left Roswell Saturday
morning reached the hack station 2h
miles this side of Pine Lodge at about
six that evening, the delay being
much greater than would ordinarily
be necessary by the fact that one OF
the cars was not working right.
While some of the cars made the
trip To the door OF the Lodge, others
stopped at the hack station and the
passengers were taken up the side of
the mountain in hacks, the last of the
party reaching the lodge at 9:15. The
road is rougher than was expected.
and in it's present condition is much
more practical for a hack and team
than an auto. Six hours would be a
good running time for the trip, with
out accident or delays. going up, ami
