DRY FARMING DIG SUCCESS
Will Reclaim Great Arid West by New Process of Farming Ranchers are Awakening to Value of Western soil

Everybody is talking dry farm. ing' said Prof. A. Atkinson. the Montana representative on the Ex- ecutive Committee of the National Dry Farming Congress. to Bill ings reporter recently, Continu- ing he said. "l have just returned from a trip covering the entire mileage of the Chicago. Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway in Montana.
 and find that this subject is be- ing discussed more than any other. Business men, travelling salesmen. merchants and farmers are all dis cussing the very helpful effect that the development of this particular class of agriculture will have on the entire West We heard them say when the ranges became ex- hausted and the bands of sheep and herds of cattle had to be reduced. that the West was about done for, With the development of this dry land farming. they realize that we will soon have much better West than ever existed in the paImiest  stock days, with the further advan- tage that the pursuit will be per manent.
 "The confidence which the bnsi- ness men have in the future dry farming is practically illustrated by the heavy investments they are making in new towns along the different railroads of the state. Many of these vii be wholly de- pendent upon dry farming country surrounding. and these business men must he convinced of the safe ness or dry farming or else they would not invest their money. From my own observation and study of conditions through the West I am of convinced that the invest ments are safe. Dry farming has succeeded in other states. and with the timely distribution of rainfall, and the heavy natural sod which makes moisture holding sod, Mon tana has sure and brilliant fu- tnre. The United States is just coming to realize that they have the most valuable resources in their Jay farming lands"
