The reports issued by the United
States department of agriculture show
that in the ten year period lasting from
1897 to 1907. Montana exceeded Iowa in
the average yield per acre of wheat. oats.
barley. rye. flax and POTATOES. The av-
erage value of improved Iowa farm
lands in 1909 was 5000 per acre: in
Montana, less than $2O per acre. This
is quite II percentage in favor Of the
Montana farmer.
The ten-year period. according to the
department of agriculture. shows the
following standing as to wheat: Mime
sofa. l3.9 bushels per acre: Illinois. 1870
bushels; Iowa. l4.l bushels; Missouri.
IFS bushels: Nebraska, lG.2 bushels, and
Montana. 26.7 bushels.
Oats Minnesota. 332 bushels per
acre: Illinois. 1862 bushels: Iowa. 3l.G

acre: Illinois. 27.j bushels Iowa. 2j.7
bushels; Missouri. 2O.5 bushels: Nebras-

These remarkable figures demonstrate
both the tetility Of Montana soil and

OUR WINTERS BIG SURPRISE.

The cold of winter may he absolute
and definite, or it may be relative. 1t
is a thing of degree and the reading
of 1T is more often done through the
medium of the feelings of the indi-
vidual than through readings fur
nished bv the thermometer, says
Prof. Thomas Shaw. The winter just
ended was one of the most severe, ac-
corling to the testimony OF the peo-
pie. that has occurred in many years.
Doubtless they are correct when they
talk thus. but it so. it means that Il
hard Montana winter is considerably
less severe than Il hard winter in Da-
kota or even in Minnesota. The
writer has passed through winters in
these states. and. therefore. has some
opportunities in Judging. The past
winter in Montana has not seemed to
the writer to be especially severe. OF
some OF them have been severe ones.
1t has also had it's low temperatures,
and some of them have been very
low. in some instances in Il few places
as low as forty degrees, but on the
whole the winter weather has not
been so severe as the same in states
farther east. This will be apparent
from the statement that in February.

months, many Of the cattle and near

the cattle especially, but the fact that
they were there tells something of
the winter weather. They woald not
have been there but for the fact that
much Of the ground was bare.
In country that is partly noun
tain and partly plain. the difference
in climate will be very material. lii
a country that has great diversity Of
mountains and much diversity Of
plains, the differences in climate will
be all the greater. The diversity in
almost maximum degrees exists in
Montana. hence the great diversity
in climatic conditions. 1t is further
intensified by the course taken by the
balmy chinook winds which blow oc-
casionally over whole areas i'm the

LARGE ACREAGE OF
STATE LAND RESERVED

Despite the fact that Montana con-
tains a total area Of l46,0W square
miles. but little more than half Of
this vast domain is available for use
and this half includes every acre
now held by private ownership in the
state. Figures have been compiled
which show stronger than words can
portray the amazing extent by which
federal action and lack Of federal ac-
ton is operating to regard the devel-
opment OF Montana. says the Helena
Independent.
The total area of Montana. 100000
square miles, equals o3. lao, 900 acres.
OF this area 2o.a3o ,9O6 acres, or al
most a fourth Of the total area of the
state, is in national forests. from
which the settlers is debarred and in
which even the prospector is hamper
ed and hindered. OF the public do
main. exclusive of the forest reserves,
l6,5OO, 900 acre are yet unsurveypd.
$685.. 100 acres are in Indian reserva-
tions, while several million acres adj
ditional, thought to contain coal de-
pOsits, are also withdrawn from Ell
try, as are likewise many acres Of
land in contemplated irrigation pro-
jects.
No other state in the union con-
tains so many acres Of public land
from which the settler is debarred.
In this connection it is interesting
to note that an effort is being made
to remove some of the restrictions.
Governor Norris has instructed State
Land Agent Henry Neil to report at
once any unsurveyed townships in
the state which it was advisable to
ask the government to expedite pub
lie surveys. The governor and at
torney general. while in Washington,
Il short time ago, also advocated the
early opening of the Crow and Black
feet reservations. and it is believed
that steps toward this end will prob
ably be taken soon. But beyond Il
delegation of Montana people in
Washington recently calling the at
tention Of the president, among other
things, to the fact that almost one
fourth of the total area of the state is
withdrawn as forest reserves. nothing
has us yet been done toward securing
the release of the lands available for
agricultural purposes, within the
boundaries of the national forests.
The following shows the area of the
various Indian reservations in the
state: Blackteet. $50 GA acres: Crow,
l.S44, 1852: Fort Belknap. 4?7 900: Fort
Peck, l,776.0o0: Jocko (r'lathead).
LIES, ISL: Northern Cheyenne, 1885,
500: total. $685., los. June 80, last.
the government figures showed that
the total area of the forest reserves
III the state amounted to 20.aSo .i96
acres. and there has been no change
since that time.

Volume Of Employment Lesseaed.
"ln this way, insidiously aud with
out realization by the general public,
often under the specious names of
improvement and reform, capital is
dissipated, discouraged and quietly
abstracted from industry. In this
way the volume Of employment is
greatly lessened, because there is less
capital for payrolls. In this way
high prices and high wages and high
taxes may all work together for the
impoverishment of natiOnl by en-
actly the same process that works
impoverishment of it's soil. The an
alogy between reckless waste of ma
tural resources aud Of capital is SO
close, the necessity of conservation
in the one direction as well as the
other is so evident, that it is not easy
to understand why the more thought
full Of our people did not long ago
take steps to apply a corrective.
