land, very rich soil free from stone
or gravel and well irrigated; good log
buildings OF all kinds, the best Of
feeding corrals. All this land is well
fenced and well ditched. This ranch
owns it's own water for irrigation and

Dillon Divide, Butte and Anaconda.
This ranch last year cut 1900 tons Of
hay and pastured 1000 head OF cattle
and a LOT of horses by seeding in tim
othy seed with the native grass. This
ranch will cut 1000 tons of hay, and
every two and a half tons of this hay
Is as valuable as seventy bushels of
corn to fatten steers on in winter.
They use 1t TO fatten cattle on the
same as the Illinois farmers fatten on
corn, but the Big Hole basin hay-fed
steers will top the market over the
corn-fed steer. Now think over the
difference in price of these lands, work
and seed. Don't overlook these propo-
sitions. Price, &15 per acre, Water
rights go with each ranch.
