Observation-Disclosures is rife as to
the next step the Northern Pacific
railway will take in the extension of
Its lines on the west Slope.
Already it is we'll assured fact
that the work in the southern part
of Mortar county will be extensive
and that the new Commercial line will
be paralleled by a line along the
Cedar river starting from some point
on the Missouri river between the
Cannonball and Fort Yates, where
the branch from Edgeley will cross
the Bid Muddy. To the west the
probabilities are that the line will be
extended from Mott across the Little
Missouri into Montana, striking the
main line at Forsythe.
But is in the country north of
Mandan that it is believed the great
est work will be done. It is not
thought likely that the terminous of
the north branch will remain at STAN
ton, and 1t is considered highly prob
able that another contract for grad
ing work will be let this year for pos
sibly another hundred miles to the
north along the river.
There Is also some speculation as
to whether the line from Stanton west
along the Knife river, may not be
built.
Dunn county is rapidly filling TN
with farmers and there is a crying
need for railroad facilities. 1t IS
hardly thought that the Northern Pa
cific will let this talk of electric lines
materialize into reality or that they
Will turn a deaf ear to the demands
of that section or perhaps leave the
way open territory. That is why II
seems altogether probable that the
Knife river branch may be started
this year.
The right Of way through that Sec
ton and to the north of Stanton, had
practically been secured several years
ago.

Washington.-W. B. diversion of Will

Gals of the landoffice and interior de-

Most of the land in that section was
withdrawn because it was alleged to
contain valuable deposits of Ignite
This reservation barred the settlers
from making proof. Last year a re-

TO IMPROVE MISSOURI
Appropriation Asksd from Z cenit,Sss
q for That Purpose. ~

uOT nat FVFp080s
Bismarck. i. r. Baker Of this
city, one Of the best known river men
In the northwest, has been in Wash
ington in consultation with Senator
McCumber regarding an appropria-
ton for the purpose Of improving the
Missouri river in the states Of South
and North Dakota ami Montana.
AS result Of their work before the
rivers and harbors committee plans
are being made for an appropriation
OF $4,000 to revet the banks, protect
the Ice harbors, remove rocks from the
bed and pull the dangerous snags.
The distance to be covered is from
LeBeau to Fl. Benton, 1000 miles, and
this item has been Incorporated in the
rivers and harbors committee bill and
the committee is being urged to re-
port on it.
Capt. Baker and Senator McCumber
have gone over each item of the bill
very carefully and estimate that the
amount asked for will be sufficient to
carry out the project as planned.
There are more boats and barges
operating on the Missouri river from
Bismarck to Wahsburn, N. D., than
~ oAAS oSAiST pldCS Ou Tic TlVST.
There were more tons of general mer-
chandise, grain and general freight
transported on the upper Missouri RI
yer last year than during any year
in this country's history.
The bill now before the committee
has the following advantage in its
favor:
The appropriations for revetment Of
banks, and for removal of rocks from
channels and rapids would perman-
emily improve the river and any prac-
ticable general plan of Improvement
Of the river.
In providing improvements of the
Missouri river, any section may be
permanently and usefully improved
without any association with the i'm
provement of any other part of the
river.
ANY and every section of the Mis-
souri, river may be profitably used in
connection with intersecting railroads.
The Upper Missouri river may he used
in connection with the Great Lakes
and trunk lines to the seaboard.
Therefore it should be improved with
out any reference to the lower end of
the river
"Revetment prevents banks from
cutting and prevents trees from fall
ing into the river and making snags.
Gazing banks are largely the cause
of shifting sandbars; they are a con-
tinual menace to boats and barges, al
ways endangering them and often
falling upon and sinking them. I'm
less caving banks are prevented, boats
are deprived of landings and of refuge
In event of storms.
IF banks and landing places are
revetted and channel snags are re-
moved, boats can run day and night
and can land any time, which they
cannot do while banks are cutting.
Capt. Baker said: 1.-The Missouri ri.
yer is a grand old waterway and with
an expenditure of $4,000 could be
but in splendid shape SO far as re-
vetment goes. There probably will be
an appropriation of $1,00O,OO0 to i'm
prove the Missouri between Kansas
City and St Louis. We can do great
deal up here with the smaller sum-"

Avoid the Cheap land "Big Can" Ba
king Powders.

The cheap baking powders have but one
recommendation: they certainly give the
purchaser plenty. Of powder for his mon
ey but, it's not all baking powder; the bulk
is made up of cheap materials that have
no leavening power. These powders are SO
carelessly made from inferior materials
that they will not make light, wholesome
/ food. Further, these cheap baking pow
ening gas; therefore it takes from two to
three times as much of such powder to
raise the cake or biscuit as it does of Calu-
met Baking Powder. Therefore, in the
long, run, the actual cost to the consumer
of the cheap powders is more than Calu-
met would be. Cheap baking powders
leave the bread sometimes bleached and
acid, sometimes yellow and alkaline, and
always unpalatable. They are never of
uniform strength and quality.
Why not buy perfectly wholesome ba-
king powder like Calumet, that is at the
same time lime \, moderate : in price and one
