The election was followed by the

FOR RIVER IMPROVEMENT,

Inc residents OF northern Montana
to whom navigation on the Missouri
river offers relief from the inconven.
fence and embarrassment caused by
remoteness from railroad facilities,
are hoping that the present congress
will recognize the ad ability and
necessity OF restoring that stream to
n%avigable condition. This work is
becoming more urgent from year to
year. for the reason that q large i'm.
migration Is increasing the number of
settlements in the country traversed by
the Missouri river. and which are 10.
Gated anywhere from fifty to seventy
miles from a railroad shipping point.
Their proximity to q navigable stream
that is under the control of the federal
government, suggests that their inter.
ests should be recognized by restoring
the Missouri river to navigable condi.
ton.
The members of the Montana con.
gressional delegation-Seua tors Car
ter and Dixon and Representative
Pray are familiar with these condi.
tions, and will doubtless use their
best %endeavors to secure the perform.
ance OF the necessary work. The mem.
bers OF the senate committee on com.
merce have been advised of the situa.
ton, Captain Baker, of Rismark, N.
OAK, having appeared before them
and presented facts regarding Mis-.
souri, river traffic that should convince
them Of the Importance of the PROPOSE
ton. w alter transportation in north.
ern Montana, by the Missouri river
route, would develop to large proper
tions, IT existing obstacles to naviga-
ton during the season of low water
were removed.
Improvement of the upper Missouri
river Is contemplated in an appropria.
ton of Sl75, 900 for that work, urged
by Senator McCumber, of North Da.
kota, in a proposed amendment to the
rivers and harbors bill. Senator
McCumber proposes that the money
be used for river work between La
Beau and Fort Benton-for clearing
the river of snags and for revetment
and protection of the banks and land.
ings. The proposed appropriation is
inadequate for all the work necessary,
but 1t would assist toward the i'm.
provement OF existing conditions.
The Missouri river when in q navi-
gable condition, is a competitor with
the railroads for part Of their Mon.
tana business, and it is natural that
they should not desire a development
of such competition. That feature of
the stu alton, however, should not
delay the necessary action by con.
gress; in fact, it is an additional rea.
son why liberal expenditures should
be made to convert the Missouri river
into agreat navigable highway for the
benefit of the people.

DRY FARMING.

Some instructive facts regarding the
progress of the dry farming movement
are presented by George E. Swan,
press agent OF the Dry Farming Con.
grses, who has made q special study
of the subject. Mr.. Swan calls atten.
ton to the fact that dry farming has
been practiced In parts OF the west for
more than half a century. Utah and
California r rivals In claiming the
earliest dry farmers in the western
United States. The beginnings were
discouraging. The first ripples of the
great tide OF western emigration crept
upward over the eastern slope Of the
Rockies more like h%arbingers OF food
of disaster than the presage of a sun.
kissed ocean of peaceful prosperity.
The settlers came. Homesteaders
built their shacks amid the ssgebrush
and turned their burrows where the
alkali reflected the binding sun glare
by day and the coyote howled dis.
mally by night. Many of them failed.
Not because the land was poor; not
because the climatic conditions made
agriculture impossible. They failed
because they did not know dry farm
ing.
But the settlers continued to come.
Some of them did not fail. Some
knew what to do, studied their condi.
lions and adapted their farming
methods to these conditions, and sue
ceeded. The few proved that the coun.
try was good and that agriculture was
possible in the so.called desert.
The movement has gained phenome.
nal prestige In the last three years,
but its present eminence has not been
gained without struggles. It's begin.
ming was inauspicious. Three years
ago there we're few people, except the
farmers who had "made good" on dry
land homestesds, who seriously be-
lieved there was anything in dry farm.
ing. The idea of raising crops with
less than twenty inches annual precip.
itation was secuted and when farmers
said they had raised crops with ten
inches annual precipitation their san.
ity or their veracity was questioned.
The movement was regarded in
