No Cheap Resort. Near Paris.

It Is remarkable thing, but in th. near neighborhood of Paris there are but very few places where one can go. and spend cheap holiday, and take ones family. For one thing, milk is always difficult to get in country places; 1t Is all sent to the nearest town or the ground is cultivated Pas. ture land is rare in France, and milk is dear. The same with the fruit and vegetables-they all go away to the towns. Apropos of this, there is a butcher in Barbizon who enjoys a unique position. He is the only one within five or six miles, and if you grumble at him, he says, The tram way leaves in two hours; see if you can get better in the next town-or try the forest, if my meat doesn't rlease vnu!"

BLOSSOMS THAT DO NOT MIX

 Tt Is more striking in combinations of green with flowers.

HE WAS TAKING NO CHANGES
Good Reason for Man Sinking Home In the Dark and Avoiding
 Acquaintances.

In the small hours of the morning a man. carrying heavy suitcase. hur. ried down the deserted streets of the sleeping city. His hurried footsteps, despite all caution, echoed in the quiet thoroughfare. He shifted the weight of the suitcase from one arm to the other; he appeared nervous and every sound caused him to start. His coat collar was turned up and his soft felt hat pulled well down over his watchful eyes.
 The man was sorely tempted to risk the owl-car, for he had far to go and his burden was heavy. but when the car came with its load of boisterous men. singing and smoking, he dared not venture abroad. Instead he picked up the heavy suitcase and hurried down the darkest side of the street. Once he hurried by man who turned and gave him a searching look. He tried to walk on as though uninterest- ed, but his knees shook and his brow grew cold and damp. for he thought he recognized the man.
 In the shadow of an alley he stood for long time until two young men ended their late visit beneath an arc lamp and separated for the night. For an instant the street was empty. and hurrying across the street the man dis appeared in the shadow of the porch of a handsome brown stone residence. key grated softly in the lock. door opened stealthily. and closed almost noiselessly.
 Safe at last" muttered the man. as he dropped the suitcase and mop ped the cold sweat from his brow. But thought I'd never make 1t: twice ran almost into acQuaintances. Now I'll stay right indoors until these cussed sunburns heal before venture out where all my friends can slap me on the back or pinch my arms and shoulders.''
 "6rsad" and "Piaeon' Seed.
 School children in the crowded parts of New York do not speak of corn and oats and wheat by those names. but always refer to them as seeds" The other day in one of the big schools the teacher was talk. fng to her pupils about gardening. She ended with request for each pupil to bring few seeds the next day to be planted in the window boxes. The following morning the children appeared mostly with either oats, wheat or corn While putting a few grains of each in the earth the teacher referred to them by their fa- miliar names. One of the girls in the class took courage to "set the teacher right" and said: Some one must a told you wrong, teacher. That"-pointing to the wheat-"is bread seed an that yellow stun ain't corn: it's pigeon seed. We always call them that in the block where we live.'

Still Settling in Montana

Helena, Mont, July -. More actual |
settlers have filed upon lands in M on
tana during the last six months than
In other state in the same period
That this immense rush Of settlers is
a movement of bona iide hOm eseekers
is evidenced by the fact that only ~
per cent Of the entries recorded were
desert land claims. The rest were
made by hOmesteaders, who obtained
lands adapted to agriculture to be
converted into farms, improved and
made the foundation of permanent
prosperity.
The settlement has been most
marked in the larger counties of the
state and the lands taken up have
been tracts considered dry farming
land in the majority of cases. Most
OF the settlers are experienced dry
farmers who have tried the system
in other parts of the country. Many
of them have sold their holdings in
the older farming district Of eastern
and middle western states for from
SG5 to $50 or more an acre and have
entered the new country where land
is cheaper and prospects for rapid
development better.

Range Cattle and Sheep at Chicago
as prepared by Clay, Robinson &
Co..
Chicago Union Stock Yards, Ill.,,
July 19th, 191O.-There were six
teen loads of rangs cattle here last
week. They were from the Wyo-
ming range of E. L Dana. This

idence of the dry state of the range
at this time. Seventy-three head of
l,266-lb steers went for slaughter
at $500 and load of 1.164-lb.
steers on feeding account at S5 10.
One load of SO5-lb. heifers brought

The irrigation meeting held in
Malta last Thursday afternoon and
evening was largely attended by
delegates from Havre, Chinook, Har-
lem, Dodson, Saco, Hinsdale, Van
dalia, Tampico and Glasgow.
At the opening of the meeting the
atmosphere was dark and threaten
ing but when L. w. Newman OF
Havre. president of the association
had made an opening speech, urging
harmony between the upper and low
er valley factions which have been
at variance for the past five years,
the clouds were dissipated, the oppo-
sing factions came together and the
meeting resulted in harmonious
course of action.
There are large number of prl-
vate irrigation concerns, covering
thouaands of acres in the upper
section of the valley. The govern
ment wants to bring this land into
the project, but holders are unwilling
to turn over their land and water
rights and then be forced to pay tor
irrigation that they have provided Tor
themselves. An agreement was
reached that these companies should
be allowed to use their own irri rigation
systems and that they should pay a
proDortionate cost of turning st.
Mary's water into The Milk river.
The government to pay all other eX-
penses.
After an agreement had been
reached a petition was drafted and
sent to the secretary Of the interior
asking his sanction Of The proposed
plan. Copies of this petition have
been forwarded by the secretary OF
the association to the different towns
in the valley and everyone interested,
no matter whether you are under the
ditch or not, may sign the petitron.
The resolutions adopted at the
meeting Of the association are as
follows:-"That as the reclamation
service has built parts of the Milk
River project and as the equitable
distribution of the waters of St. Mary
and Milk river has been agreed upon
by treaty with the Canadian govern
ment and as congress has just appro
prated 10000, 900 dollars for the
completion of irrigation works now
under construction, that the secre-
tary of the interior allot sufficient
funds to the Milk river project to
complete it," The understanding
between the upper and lower sections
of the project is embodied in this
clause of the resolutions:-' 1t is
suggested, however. where there is a
satisfactory irrigation system the
owners thereof may retain their pre-
sent system by the payment Of their
proportion of the cost of supplying
the increased quantity of water

sacks of cement and heaps Of lime;
and forces of busy workmen, excava-
ting, drilling, measuring, figuring,
hammering and saving. As the days
passed the excavation became huge
basement, the drill forced the crystal
water from it's hiding places in the
deep recesses of the earth and a we'll
was formed in the rear of the Ed
wards Mcclellan brick block. The
bricks and building material in the
hands of skilled workmen began to
assume shape and out of all this chaos
and seeming confusion haye arisen
two splendid substantial brick struc-
lures, On the same side of the street
with only Fifth Avenue between
them. They have Kept pace with each
other in the building race for now
each is nearing completion. Each
will bear evidence of the great in
terest taken by their proprietors in
Malta, her growth and development.
Each is an expression of confidence
in Malta's future. The steady growth
of the town and surrounding country
have been satisfactory guarantee
for their erection.
These two buildings and the fix
lures will cost approximately $50, 900
both are built of pressed brick, the
Edwards bloc k, ST G a m
heated, of grey brick, and the A,
! Cavanauah of red brick. As The
buildings are 50 near together they
present pleasing contrast iii color
and style of architecture.
The Edwards Mcclellan two-storv
block being built by A, Montgomery
/
of Chinook, has frontage of 33 feet,
with finely finished basement the
size of the entire first floor. The first
floor which will be used asa sales room
and office by the Edwards Mcclellan
Clothing and Hardware Co., has a
width of SO feet and depth of 73
feet. The second floor is divided in
to ten Office rooms, ranging in size
from 1Oxl2 feet to l2X1G feet. The
office rooms are to be beautifully fin
ishee in hard wook, we'll lighted and
ventilated by large windows; will
have high ceilings, and be steam
heated.
These modern office rooms are a
most desirable addition to the busi-
ness buildings in Malta. They fill a
long felt want. Five Of them have
already been rented.
Forty-thrce feet of plate glass will
be used in the display window of the
sales room and the shelving and
counters and other fixtures will be
oak finished, mission style.
The A. Cavanaugh brick block
of which the Glasgow Brick Compa-
ny are the architects. has tlontage
of 65 feet on Front street and width
of 100 feet facing Fifth Avenue
The building is divided into commo o.
dious quarters for the First Nationa !
Bank of Malta, four large stores and
an office room. The Bank will oc-

tana since the opening of spring the
impression prevails in certain quar-
ters that the bench lands of Monta-
na can not be successfully farmed.
That certain sections of Montana
have been visited with the dryest sea-
son experienced in thirty years is
certainly true. That many of the
new settlers in the areas of greatest
drought will reap only a scant har-
vest is certainly true, but tins does
not mean that the bench lands of
| Montana can not be successfully
farmed, nor does it mean that good
money can not be made from farm
ing them.
The crops east from Glasgow to the
Dakota line, both to the north and
south are good. The crops around
Great Falls are fair. In the judith
! Basin they are excellent and III the
Lake Basin country between. judith
Gap and Billings they will probably
approximate 80 per cent OF full
