triolets, parodies and local gleanings
The vital topics Of the hour, as we'll
as local interest, were embodied in the
compositions, which proved that the
teachers plea for earnest, conscientious
work had been responded to. The
music pupils lent their best efforts to
the success Of the entertainment.
Last Wednesday the literature class
engaged in a spirited contest. Miss
a. Heckart was captain of the side of
American literature, while Miss Minnie

Special 10 The Tribune.
WASHINGTON, Nav S.-A new land
of promise for the land hungry and the
homeseeker is tc be opened on May 90,
when the government will offer to set
tiers large area or fine farming land
in one of the most beautiful valleys in
tho west The lands are embraced in
the Shoshone irrigation project, which
eventually will reclaim 100000 acres
east of the Yellowstone National park
on northern Wyoming.
1t is a region of scenic grandeur and
beauty. The farming lands arc sur
rounded by lofty mountains, covered
with timber and containing valuable
minerals. The soil of the valley is ex-
ceedingly fertile, and, when Irrigated,
produces large yields of cereals, forage
crops, hardy fruits and vegetables.
The climate is invigorating, health
full and enjoyable at all times. There
are no cyclones, billiards or other Sc
we're storms. During the past winter
construction work on the reinforced
concrete structures was carried on con
tiuuously throughout the entire seat
son.
Ideal Stock Country.
Back of the irrigated land is vast
area of fine grazing lands and millions
of acres of national forests, over which
summer and arc fed in winter on the
forage crops grown by irrigation. Coal
and petroleum of good quality are
found in the vicinity.
4 year ago this spring the first unit
of this project. consisting of $4,000
acres, was opened Settlers poured into
the valley from all sections of the
country so rapidly that il soon became
evident that every acre under this unit
hn a " c
rushed on the second unit and water
is now ready for an additional 1000
acres.
The coming of large number of set
tiers to the valley created u demand
for all sorts Of supplies, such as gro
ceries, machinery, clothing, etc, as we'll
as the services of carpenters, black
smiths and artisans of all kinds. The
towns of Garland and Ralston have
grown rapidly. and Cody is assuming
metropolitan airs. The government es-

THE ADVANTAGE OF WESTMIN.
STER AS A PLACE TO Buy.

There is no section of the state In
which the people have advantages for
buying goods, which are superior to
those possessed by the people of
Carroll county, and few are so well
situated in this regard. The splendid
department stores Of this city offer
to the buyers of this and adjacent
counties the very best advantages that
can be had anywhere.
These stores are conducted by en-
terprising and "up to date" mer-
chants, the stock of goods In each has
been selected with the greatest care.
and these goods are sold at the lowest
prices that the same can be purchased
Tor in any reliable establishment.
Our merchants are known TO our
people, known for their integrity and
fair-dealing, and what they sell can
be depended upon. by every customer
who makes purchases in these stores
Baltimore city is a much larger
N~eAAASJt anu do q HidLlCT OF 1eCeS-
sity has many more stores, but we do
not hesitate to say, that for the peo-
pie of Carroll county and the counties
contiguous to it, there is no place
where they can make purchases to
better advantage, and feel safer in
dealing, than in Westminster.
Recently there has been an extra
ordinary effort made by the Baltimore
merchants, to divert trade from this
and other localities, but this has only
succeeded in very limited way. Our
merchants are doing a splendid busi-
ness, and our people realize that 1t is
to their interest to deal with them
Especially at this holiday season, our
stores are prepared to meet the wants
of all customers and to give them the
advantage Of the lowest possible
prices.
This applies not only to the large
department stores, but to our whole
sale and retail grocers. and to every
other line Of mercantile business.
Here you get everything in the way
Of price and quality, that can be oh
tanned IN Baltimore or elsewhere. and
our home merchants deserve to re-
ceive your trade.
