COOK THE FAKER.

That seems to be the colors that
Cook, of North Pole fame will have
to sail under for time at least as
the University of Copenhagen, the
irst institution of learning to recOg-
nlZe Cook as the discOverer of the
nof,h pole. last Tuesday declared
that the explore had failed to estab-
lish his claim.
The committee appointed by the
university to examine Cooks re-
cords recently presented it's report to
the consistory Of the university.
This reviewed the reductions of ex-
perts with the greatest care and dis
cussed the findings from every stand
point.
That both the committee and the
consistory were dissappuin. ed was
soon known. The consistory met
and adopted u written report to the
effect that the alleged records sub
mitted for examination by Cook
failed to prove his claim that he had
reached the pole.
The report OF the committee, OF
which Prof. Stromgren was chair
man, as presented to tire cunsistOry
states that Cooks papers are with
out any value and that his report to
the university is practically the same
as Shat published in the New York
Herald upon his return from his
Artic expedition. Copies of his note
books submitted, contain no original
calculations of observations but the
only results thereof, accordingly the
committee concludes, he affords no
proof Of having reached the pole.
Cook $ original documents, though
promised, were never submitted to
the university. What was examined
was typewriter matter which Cook
secretary assured the commission
was Il complete and accurate publica-
ton Of the information contained in
Cook = note book.

DRY FARMING
IN MONTANA
Bv Supt. Cooley.

Bv Supt. Cooley.
The things necessary to make farm
ing without irrigation possible in this
western country are mainly four:
First. a deep, friable soil.
Second. Sufficient rainfall which
comes in manner that will permit,
of it soaking into the ground, and at,
such time as to be of greatest SER.
vice to the growing plant.
Third. Light evaporation SO that.
all possible rain that comes may ha
saved for the use Of the crop.
Fourth. Hardy, rapid growing and;
early ripening crops.
The first three OF these points must
be characteristic Of the country: the
latter factor must be supplied by the
farmer. In very many parts of Mon
tana the natural conditions fill all the
requirements necessary for success
full dry farming.
The writer has travelled thousands
of miles over the state in the, last
seven years and not little OF this, OH
trips away from the railroad. Conn
pairing these observations with, actual
surveys made OF the agricultural lands
in the Northern Pacific Railway
grant, l believe that conservative
estimate would place the ara Ole lands
of the state at between ~. 900. 600 md
25,OOO,OO acres. Careful estimates
place the outside limit M irrigable
land at 5,OOO,OO0 to 6,O4O. 900 acres.
This leaves l5,O0O,OV0, TO- 10000, 900
acres of land which if farmed at all,
must be cropped by dry farm methods.
Much the greater portion Of this land
which is permanently above the irri-
CATION ditch, is, high bench lands.
These have generally deep soil,
we'll stored with the mineral plant
food elements aud covered With a
heavy sod OF buffalo and other
grasses. The heavy sod and the Wig
orOus growth of grass in a season Of
favorable rainfall is notable feature
of the Montana uplands. This heavy
growth and close firm sod has always
impressed me as indicating partic-
ularly favorable conditions for dry
farming. Land that is compact and
hard, which has been pastured close
by cattle and sheep for many years

FOREIGN BILLIONS IN AMERICA.

That the old countries find it profit
able to finance the new countries is
commonly understood, but to what
extent they derive their prosperity
and increasing wealth from this
source has until now been mere CUES
work and the estimated total far be-
low the mark. A painstaking and
thorough inqu ~ into the subject by
leading authority indicates that the
older countries have invested ST, OO0,-
100000 in the United States in the
last half century. But for this vast
supplement to our own resources the
growth OF America must have been
more like that Of the South American
countries, where the opportunities
for quick returns were less than here.
Great Britain has been the principal
source of the six billions of foreign
capital inves ed III the United States.
Besides paying over the dividends
accruing the investors, we double our
Nealtl every twenty years: but it
is believed that the inflow of capital
from the older countries will continue
for many years in diminishing
amounts. 1t is anticipated that this
VIII insure further great increase in
the productivity and wealth of this
country and a corresponding eNpan-
sion OF income tor the foreign i'll
weston.
When the inflow of foreign capital
leran the census returns showed the
aggregate wealth OF the United STATE IS
to be $1,000, 900, 900, or only a billion
more than we have since imported.
In 1904 our wealth had increased by
leaps and bounds to s1O7, 200, ooO, 900.
Daring the same period the per capt.
ia rose from SHo1 to S1.3,O
The advantages OF the export of
capital by the older countries are
Ell in the case of Grtag Britain,
which is typical of the experience of
other leading countries. All told,
the British have SIS 900. OOo, 900 i'll
vested in the new countries, includ-
ing her colonial possessions. The
movement began about - years ago,
when the wealth OF that country was
$4,000, GoH.o and the per capita
STA. Now her weatl, is ScO, 900, O0O,-
Oo0 and the per capita SLIT. Her
foreign investments are principally
in government bonds and railroad
securities, and other colonies her
capitalists exert Il dominant influence
in finance and industry.
Americans themselves are becom-
ing investors in other new countries.
mostly in Mexico and South America,
where liberal concessions hold out
prospects of tlattering returns. 1t is
doubtful, however, that money thus
invested yielded larger income than
would have resulted from investment
at home. Certainly not at this hey
day Of oipor.l J and development.

opinion tfsat in any part Of the state
where there is deep soil covered
with heavy sod and level enough to

when proper methods are followed.

The Montana experiment stations

and crops in the spring Of 1904. From
one station the first. year this work
has gradually grown until for the
next season work will. be carried on
in II different places and. about S2O,-
900 Il year is used in the.maintenance
of the work. The aim has been to
make these stations centers, OF infor-
nation and Of helpful advice to the
people of the district. The results on
these experiment farms has been uni
formly successful in all mrts,of the
state. When we consider that the in
crease in assessed farm values for
the last year has been $40. 900 or
more, and that much of this has
come from dry farm districts, it is
evident that the settler is rapidly
taking hold of these dry bench lands
and developing them into profitable
farms.
AS the people move westward over
the bench lands and as the railroads
push out and open up new districts.

will be found that there are yet mil
