Valley booster" who is at the Arlington.
and, in connection with other Boosters"
came on here to boost before a Con-
gressional committee and the President
an appropriation for the irrigation OF the
Milk River Valley.
Yes, sir: the last administration OF
this country was the best sver," repeated
DR.. Hoyt The only trouble with it was
that it suffered from trustitis. This ap-
plies especially TO the conservation Ques-
ton and the forest reserve. Now, We out
in Montana are strong believers in con-
servation. because we appreciate its BEN
efts. but the policy should be applied
in a common sense and practical manner.
and not by a lot OF theorists who have
withdrawn thousands and thousands OF
acres Of valuable farm land from the
settler and embodied it IN the reserve.
THE tops OF mountains and the sides,
where nothing else grows or can be used,
should be included in the reserve" con
tinued DR.. Hoyt. 'but valuable valley
land should never be given over to for
estation. Trustitis was the governing
motive Of the forest service up 10 this
time. A mere suspicion on the part OF
the Forest Service was sufficient TO with
draw many thousands OF acres OF yalu-
able land from settlement. II was simply
a case where the fear OF trusts ran wild
and unresuained.
Montana IS an empire in ITSELF" con-
tinued Mr.. Hoyt. 1T is so big that
you can put the whole OF New England
inside OF 1t, and have enough left FOR a
number Of the European kingdoms TO
come in and settle down peacefully. II is
three times as large as England, and
stands supreme as a producer OF the very
best Of wheat grain. vegetables. alfalfa,
and everything in that line. Twenty-four
per cent OF the territory OF the State is
in the reserve, which simply means that
that much valuable area Is closed to
settlement and cultivation What's tho
result? In one month the neighboring
province OF Alberta, III Canada, has re-
ceived from American settlers over $780,
900 for land purchases at the price Of
from SO to $50 an acre. That much money
and that many citizens are lost 10 this
country where there is no necessity. II only
the government spent $4,000 each year
for three years, and have our land sur
veyed, il would not be necessary for
Americans 20 60 10 Canada and seek

Speaking Of politics IN Montana, DR..
Hoyt said that the next election would
result In the return OF e Democratic
legislature. which IN turn would mean
the election Of a Democratic United
States Senator, to succeed Senator Car

state Senator Everett OF Harlem,
Mont. who is with DIT. Hoyt agreed
with him in every respect, excepting
his political representation. which the
