FOURTH DRY-FARMING CONGRESS
Meets at Billings, Montana, October
26. 1909.

The international Exposition of Dry
Farm Products will be held during Con-
gress week at Billings Thirteen western
states and territories, two Canadian
provinces, Mexico and Russia will send
exhibits.
Seventeen states and ten foreign
countries viii have delegates at this
congress.
In the west 2OO,OOO,O 900 acres of ara
BILE land awaits development by dry
farming methods. Texas has 25,OO0,
900; Montana, Colorado and Wyoming
$4,000, 900; New Mexico, Oklahoma,
Utah, Idaho and Arizona over 6O,0OO,-
600.
Experts estimate that in ten years
every drop of water available for irri-
cation will be utilized. For every acre
irrigated there will be SO acres Of dry
farm land when irrigation possibilities
are exhausted. To this land the future
homeseeher must come.
In 1900 dry farm land in the west
averaged fifty cents to $3.50 an acre.
Increased valuation where dry farming
has been demonstrated shows that with
in ten years this 100000 900 acres will
be held at $40 to $50 an acre. Dry
farming means an increase in western
land values, at a conservative estimate
of approximately five billion dollars
The dry farming congress teaches
farmers how to conserve moisture by in
telligent cultivation, educates them il
soil culture and seed selection and
guides inexperienced settlers in methods
that bring them their share Of the har
vest profit. It extends the limit o.
producing area to the limit of acreage
in arid and semi-arid regions, and
therefore, is the keystone upon which
the future prosperity Of the great Yves
is established.

WYOMING LAND OPEN MAY 2e.
Beautifully Located Areas Free From

Large areas of valuable farming
lands in one of the most beautiful val
leys in the west, a region described
by government experts as of wonder
ful scenic grandeur, of exceeding fer
tility and free from tornadoes, biz
yards or other severe storms, will be
opened to settlers on May %.
The lands are situated in the Sho-

the Yellowstone National park in
northern Wyoming.
The farms are to be offered for set

with no interest requirements. The
settler, however, will be required to
pay annually 81 per acre for the opera
ton and maintenance of the irrigation
system.
The engineering features are of un-
usual interest. just below the junction

IS AGAINST SUFFRAGE AT
NATIONAL CAPITAL.
In a Recent Speech Declared that He
was Against Any Change.-Business
Men Were Surprised to Hear Him
State His Attitude so Strongly
Says 1t Is All Right Now.

Declaring emphatically against suf-
frage for the residents of the District
of Columbia and opposing any radical
change in the relation between the ma
tional government and that of the ma
tional capital, President Taft recently
set a hail full of Washington business
men aghast The president gave full
expression of his views and declared
that he "was thinking out loud, but
was certain of his groundwork. -
The talk of the president came as
a surprise to the listeners. A banquet
had been arranged by the Washing
ton board of trade, which is advocat
ing a change in the government of the
city. Justice w. p. Stafford of the
supreme court of the district had de-
livered an eloquent address, in which
he pictured the people Of the district
as "slaves without voice in the af-
fairs of their city,
He advocated one senator and two
members of the house to be elected
by the people of the district and de-
elared this banquet should be the start
ing point Of a great agitation for an
amendment TO the constitution for this
end. When he had finished, the ban
ouetters arose and cheered his senti-
ments and all looked to Taft
Nationalist, Says Taft.
The president made short work of
expounding his views. He declared
that he had lived here longer than
Justice Stafford and took a personal
pride in the city of Washington. And
as he looked at the rOtund forms
around the banquet tables, he said he
was impressed with the prosperity Of
the " slaves who lived in this national
capital
"With respect TO Washington, - said
the president, 81 IN nationalist. This
city is the home Of the government OF
a nation and those men who outlined
its plan Of government knew what they
were doing. The home Of the govern
ment Of $4,000 900 people should be
governed by the representatives OF
those sO,O00,00O people. The people
who come here to live come here with
their eyes open as to the character OF
the government Of the city and they
must trust TO the representatives OF
10000, 900 people, selected under that
