A PLAUSIBLE remedy for the preser-
walton Of our forest reserves, would
seem to be to adopt the the method
now in vogue in Norway In that
country man who cuts a tree down
is obliged under the law to plant three
saplings. If this method was adopted
in this country, the diminution of our
forests would be greatly eliminated.

NOT GIVEN UP HOPE.
Farmers Of Beaverhead May Vet Eff.
feet Deal for Dam.

Dillon.-George R. F%eatherly, who
has been taking a lead in trying to
induce the farmers of this valley to
purchase the Lima dam and reservoir
from the Chicago capitalists owning
the property, states that he has not
yet given up hope of having the deal
made.
If that reservoir is sold to a power
company" says Mr.. Featherly, that
will end development in this part Of
the state along irrigation and reclaim
alton lines, for not another reservoir
site exists where water may be stored
to irrigate the benches in this valley.
While the and the ranchers
may differ very much as to the value
of the property, at the same time l
believe the owners are willing to sell
to the ranchers at a reasonable profit,
and the ranchers should not deny
their privileges to ask that profit.
There's really no other but
for the ranchers to buy if they want
more water. It's their only chance"

MADISON VALLEY BENCH LANDS,
Irrigation Companies Racing With
Surveys for Water Supply
bitches.

Virginia City.-When two or more
railroad companies desire to reach a
given point owe a certain route, there
is a wild scramble of engineers of the
respective companies in an attempt
to secure the right of way. The same
rule holds good in the construction
OF irrigating canals. There are thou
sands of acres of as good land as ever
laid out of doors on the bench on the
east side of the Madison valley, only
waiting the construction of an irri-
eating canal to make them give forth
bounteous crops. While the PROPOSE.
to water these bench lands has been
talked of for years, it remained for
w. H. Godfrey, mayor of Sheridan,
to start the ball rolling in this direc-
ton. He interested eastern capital
in the scheme and last week complet-
ed the preliminary survey of the pro-
posed ditch.
On the heels of the announcement,
that the Godfrey survey is completed
m the information that two other
parties Of surveyors are in the field,
one representing the Madison River
Power Company and the other a COM
blnatlon of BOzeman capitalists and a
number Of Madison valley farmers.
The Madison River Power Company
have three engineers and a large num-
Der of chainmen at work running a
survey from a point a little over a
mile south Of the Lyon %postoftice to
Jack Creek, 40 miles north, and cover
ing practically all the bench land be-.
tween these two points, though the
proposed canal will not run quite so
close to the foothills as that surveyed
by Mr.. Godfrey. The surveyors have
completed the survey to Indian creek,
about one-third of the distance, and
at the rate they have been going the
survey will be completed in a couple
Of weeks more.
The other party also has surveyors
in the field. and their proposed canal
is to be known az the Farmers ditch.
They have not as yet begun the sur
vey Of the ditch, but are putting in
their time surveying and plating the
lands that will be under the proposed
canal. There is no doubt the bench
lands on the Madison valley are 60
ing to be irrigated, but which COM
pany will build the canal remains to
be seen.
