on ADVANTAGES Of Mont.

Copies of the new book entitled
Montana just issued by the i'm
migration department Of the Chica-
go, Milwaukee 4 St. Paul, have
been received here, and it is GER
tainly dandy. The book contains
forty pages, is profusely illustrated
with half tone views Of grain fields
and products of the various sections
thru which the new road passes,
and includes a fine map of the
state. Its cover is a three-color re-
production of the famous ADVERTISE
ment showing giant plowman
turning a furrow of golden dollars
across the state Of Montana.
Considerable space is devoted to
the state in general, touching on
the climate, soil, rainfall, topogra-
ply, and its mining and agricult-
ural possibilities. The Musselshell
valley is given more space than any
other section, covering about four
pages, and includes three fine har-
vesting views. There are also chap
ters on Custer county and the Yel-
lowstone valley. the Judith Basin,
the Smith River, Shields River.
Madison, jefferson, Deer Lodge,
Missoula and Flathead valleys.
One Of the convincing features of
the book are the tables showing the
results achieved by scientific farm
ing and the amount of farm pro-
ducts it is still necessary to import
into the state for the reason that
the demand is far greater than the
home supply.
This book is without doubt one

ceived.

G. f. Mckoin, register Of the
Lewistown land office, came in last
evening to take look at Roundup
and be convinced that it really is
one Of the coming cities of the state
of Montana. He was delightfully."-
surprised at the substantial APP
pearance Of our city, and, after siz-
ing up our wonderful resources and
industries, he did not hesitate to
say that our claim for future great
ness was based on good grounds.
Register McKoin has just re-
ceived from the department Of in
terion, a list of lands in this dis
trict which will be subject to entry
under the 32O-acre homestead law.
The list includes about thirteen
townships in the extreme eastern
part of the district'in Dawson and
Rosebud counties in the vicinity of
Melstone. Much of this land is
still unsurveyed. In regard to the
withdrawal Of lands in this and the
Lavina countries, Mr.. Mckoin said
the ruling was only temporary and
was done evidently to allow a re-
classification.
Mr.. Mckoin will return to Lewis
town tomorrow morning.
