PIPE DREAMS
AT ISMAY

al 1OV1A1
The below article, under the
heading of Didn't Miss a Trip
made it's appearance in the last
issue of the Ismay newspaper
'The stage-line, owned and
operated by Gorden Taylor, that
carries the mail between here
and Ekalaka did not miss trip
on account Of the deep snow last
week.
Mr.. Taylor, knowing the con-
dition of the road, and that it
would be almost impossible for
the mail to get here from Eka-
laka on time, used good judge
ment in sending out another
stage, which met the other
about twenty miles from here
and exchanged mails, bringing
Ekalaka mail back to Ismay; thus
letting the regular stage proceed
to Ekalaka on time.
A great deal of credit is due
Mr.. Taylor for his foresight in
the matter and seeing to it that
the mails were not delayed. The
1smay."
Of all the massacre, slaughter
and butchery of truth, the above
item takes the cake. How a
newspaper man or anybody else
can come out and make such
statements is beyond US and W.
suggest that the author of the
above be selected as the pres
ident of the Ananias club. H.
certainly deserves the title.
That the Ismay route is giving
us poorer service than any othe1
route we ever had is th4 SEN
timent of the majority of the
patrons of the Ekalaka post
office and the line like every
thing from Ismay is an Is, My,
Perhaps, Guess and a Doubling
proposition.
The bid submitted for the
carrying Of the mail on this route
for another year was rejected
and new bids were advertised for
and unless a satisfactory bid is
received on the line this time the
department will discontinue the
line, which would be a blessinG
to the people of Ekalaka.
The facts are that the mail
failed to arrive on Monday the
l4th, and Gid not show up until
the next day at $40 p. m. Does
The Ismay call this arriving On
time? On the 18th (still one day
behind) the mail left and arrived
here next day at 5. 40 p. m. Our
next mail got here on Tuesday
the 22nd just five days after it
left. That's not missing a trip
Or delaying the mails. Oh nc!
The next mail arrived the 25th.
again losing a trip, and since
has been coming regular. The
postotfice records show these
facts and our brother editor in
Ismay would do vel! next time t.
look them up.

Information About Ekalaka
Brief Description About the Town and Country Taken From
The Homeseekers Cuide Issued BY The aaka Land R. Co.

so prevalent in the Dakotas,
Nebraska and other sections
of the country. Only the best
Of weather is had in the summer
and can be termed as indeed
beautiful and healthful. The
rainfall commences about the
first Of May and continues until
July, filling the reservoirs, irri-
eating canals and other storages
at a time when the water is
needed. Cattle, sheep and horses
winter here with very little
loss, making it one Of the finest
stock raising countries in the
world.
An abundant supply Of timber
can be obtained here at very
little cost to the homesteader.
There are two reserves, the Long
Pine Reserve on the east side of
Box Elder and the Ekalaka Re-
serve near Ekalaka. From these
reserves the actual settler is
entitled to a free permit for fire
wood.
Practically the entire country
is underlaid with vast deposits
Of Ignite coal, especially in the
hilly portions. The best quality
of this coal is now being sold
in Ekalaka for $3.10 per ton de-
livered.
Only in the last few years has
farming been tried in this part
of the country, but from this
short experience we have learned
that we can raise as fine veg
etables and small grain as any
other country in the United
States will produce. Oats were
raised here the last year with
out irrigation) that yielded from
40 to 80 bushels to the acre and
weighed in the neighborhood
Of 48 lbs. to the bushel. One
farmer in this country gathered
450 bushels Of oats from 5 acres
of land last year that weighed As
lbs. machine measure, Other
crops were raised in proportion
which goes to show that the
stockmen's cry that this is not a
farming country is exploded and
will no longer keep the settlers
from coming here to locate.
The streams in the vicinity OF
Ekalaka and territory in which We
are located Southeastern Custer
County, are as follows:- Com.
mencing in the southeastern
portion is the Little Missour
river, the valley Of which is now
mostly settled, then farther
north comes Box Elder with
numerous tributaries and an ex,
cellent farming valley varying
in width from Is to 20 miles fol
about 40 miles in length which
has many thousand acres OF
unsettled land, This beautiful
valley is tributary to ENalaks
and offers many inducements t(
settlers. An abundance of tim
Der can be had from the reserve
that is nearby and water an(
coal is plentiful on the land

Ekalaka, is situated on Russell

Ekalaka, is situated on Russell
Creek, a tributary of Little
Beaver in Section 80, Township
2 North, Range So East Of Mon
tana Principal Meridian. 1t is g
town Of about 400 population and
in early days was one of the best
cow towns" in the west. To-
day it is progressing in a most
rapid manner and is fast be-
coming one Of the best towns in
Custer county. 1t is in the heart
of the greatest range country in
the United States, located AZ miles
southwest of Baker, it's nearest
railroad point, on the C. M. & P.
S. railroad. We have now an
urgent demand for many lines of
business in Ekalaka and offer
many inducements to those look
ing for an ideal location. We
have a new up-to-date school
house just completed to acco-
modate the many school children
chat we now have here and
those that are going to come
later. We have many secret or
ganizations, church societies,
and other social facilities. The
business houses include, two
banks, two general merchandise
stores, two hotels, rooning
house, two saloons, blacksmith
shop, dentist Office, two livery
barns, exclusive hardware store,
confectionery store, a news
paper, two doctors, and many
smaller lines of business. AL
though we are situated some
distance from the railroad we
can communicate with the out
side world. We have 3 phone
lines from this place; one to
Miles City, the county seat; one
to Baker our nearest railroad
point and one to Camp Crook SO
miles distance when the line
connects with a direct line to the
Black Hills and other South
Dakota points. The best way to
reach Ekalaka is to come over
the Chicago Milwaukee and
?: S. railroad to Baker, (Custer
County, where conveyences will
be furnished for here. Business
men looking for a change CT
location should not overlook to
make trip to this country and
sec for themselves the oppor-
tunities that are offered.
The soil in our vicinity is a
black sandy loan, producing the
most nutrious grasses and well
adapted for farming, The land
works up in good shape and
holds moisture splendidly. In a
word you will discover that it is
good farming land when you get
at the facts.
The climate is much mildel
than the same latitude farther
east, the frequent Chinook winds
in the winter melting the snow
so that a heavy body Of it seldom
remains upon the ground for any
length Of time. The country il
