A CHRISTMAS ELECY

The Christmas bells proclaim the years demise,
The spangles have been hung upon the tree;
Last night found two tifty-cent necktes
With which my wife expects to gladden. me-
Now fades the color from the shopgir's cheeks
And in her eyes solemn sadness turks,
She has been working overtime for weeks
And oft been called the stupidest of clerks.
Her shoes longer fit her aching feet,
But she must neither mlrmur complain:
Ah but at night, in visions that are sweet,
She sees things in normal state again.
Beneath mighty box that weighs him down
A weary messenger goes on mis- way:
All day he has been trampllny through the town
And getting meager thanks and little pay.
Oft has he been upb1aded for his lack
Ofswiftness by unsympathetic folk
And been compelled to sadly carry back
Things that he chanced to fall upon and broke.
Full many gem Of purest ray serene
Will go to some fair maid from some young man
Who will when June has made the hillsides green
Pay for it Oh the old instament plan.
But soon the maddened crowds ignoble strife
Will end and peace Will come once more to sway,
And little Willie with his sharp, new knife
Will whittle at the furniture all day.
Yet e'en, no matter what creed or sect,
We that must pay the bills should bravey try,
In case do not get things we expect,
TO make ourselves believe they satisfy.
S. e. KIsER.

Open More Experiment Farms

Professor Thomas Shaw, the Great
Northern's travelling agricultural
expert, passed through Great Falls
Saturday night on his way home to
st. Paul to spend Christmas, making
the announcement while there that
the railroad will next spring open a
number of additional agricultural eX
pertinent stations for the benefit Of
Montana settlers. The new stations
will be at Hedges, Malta, Naller,
Carter, Buffalo, Shorey, shelby
junction, each being about six acles
ir extent. Another at the Indian
reservation at Poplar will comprise
so acres. The Great Northern estab-
lished forty-tve similar farms this
year.
Professor Shaw has been attending
the corn show and meeting of far
mers which closed at Billings We'd
nesday night.
/ lie said considering the character
Of the season, it was Il very marked
success. saw sample Of mature
corn that had been grown 4.50o feet
above sea level. The ears were not
large, but they were an indication OF
what may be done. l will not say
that corn will be ripened in the fu-
ture everywhere i'll Montana, but |
believe it will be raised for fodder
anywhere that the elevation is nc
more than 1000 feet. l believe that
in the river basins it will be grown
extensively as a crop. In 1906 |. ID,
O'Donnell of Billings raised ninety.
six bushels Of ripe corn. Nearly
every city in the state was repre-
sented at the exhibit.
There is no doubt that there will be
a tremendous influx of settlers tt
Montana in the spring. There may
not be as many homestead entries as
there were this year, but those who
filed this year will have to come out
to hold their rights. While most o1
the land close to the railroads. goo,
for farming, has been taken, there il
still a large amount of lying farther
away, especially unsurveyed land"

Washington, Dec. 2O.-The delega-
ton from Milk River Valley left for
home tonight after reaching final ar
rangement with the reclamation bu-
reau and interior department regard
ing water rights on that irrigation
project. A complete adjustment
was reached which will obviate the
necessity for delay in adjudicating
water rights between claimants in
court.
The Milk River Valley irrigation
delegation consisting of I. M. Ever
ett, l.. Newman, j. l.. Truscott, "A.
IL. Reser and j. l.. Gilman, reached
Washington last Thursday to endeav-
or to reach a definite basis with the
reclamation bureau for the prosecu-
ton of irrigation work in the valley
without proceeding to litigation to
! adjudicate the water rights in adj
vance of further expenditure.
| The delegation, accompanied by
Representative Pray and Senator
Carter, conferred with the reclama-
ton official, and will remain some
days. They will probably see the
president and Secretary Balinger.
1t is believed they will arrive at a
satisfactory conclusion.
The reason for the visit is that the
government advised them that it
would be necessary to djudicate all
water rights in the Milk River valley
as an initial step to the continuance
of work on tho protect. The desire
now is to clear up the entire matter
SO that work on the project cam go
on.
