The Lynden tribune. [volume] (Lynden, Wash.) 1908-current, 1911-03-30

The first baseball game of the
season will be played Saturday at 2
p. NJ. on the Lynden grounds by the
Blaine and Lynden high school teams.
There are good many reasons
why good sporting editor would
predict victory for Blaine, the best
of which is that the Blaine line up
is practically the same as last year,
while the Lynden team has several
new men. However, the Tribune edit
or has the edge on the best sporting
editors-we know our boys. and we
know they will win this game if VIM
ing it is possible. The Lynden boys
know the secret of isuccess-playing
together as with one mind.
The lineup OF the home team is.

You don't need to worry--a country
like this is, will not long remain with
out adequate transportation .acilties.
This valley will have "a railroad
So said M. H. Welton, Immigration
agent for the Chicago, Milwaukee and
Puget Sound Railroad, Tuesday, while
being shown over the fertile country
north of Lynden. OF course Mr..
Welton has nothing to do with build
ing railroads, but much of his life
has been spent working for railroads
and he knows the sort OF country
railroads want to take.
His business here Tuesday, instead
of being of boosting nature was TO
try and steal some of our people. He
is getting up an excursion from Sea-
tile to various towns in Montana-a
land seekers excursion, and he
thought, he said, that maybe we had
some people here We wanted to get
rid Of.
Mr.. Welton says that some Of the
best and cheapest land in the United
states is in Montana, and that It is
crime for any of our people TO be
going over into Canada looking Tor
cheap lands.
He was especially boosting for the
Smith River Valley country where
land can be had now at from SIS
an acre up to $25, and where it is
of the same quality as that which
sells for SIS and 500 an acre in
the old settled districts.
He is also urging young men TO
investigate the government land in
Dawson, Custer and Rosebud counties,
where there is over 3. 100000 acres.
| Mr.. Welton left a lot of his liter
allure at the Lynden State Bank and
We promised him we'd help send
lot of Whatcom county farmers on
his excursion. We made the promise
on the recommendation of John Ed
| wards who said;
Sure. we'll be glad to see lots of
people gO--everyOne who goes away
from Lynden comes back and brings
somebody with Them
So, il you want to leave Lynden,
go now while you can get cheap rate
and cheap land. II remember right
you get round trip ticket for about
one fare.
Mr.. Welton, while here promised to
reserve space in the Milwaukee ex-
hibit cars for some Lynden oates, hay
and vegetables. If you raise any
thing especially fine this coming sum
mer let the Tribune know and we
will see to it that the Milwaukee
people hear of 1t.

In another column Of this

his disapproval of the plan in the

To my mind it is the most
absurd and unjust proposition
ever offered to sensible people.
In the first place they offer
to advance only S25 per bale, or
practically sc per pound, and to
charge a commission of 81 per
bale for that.
In the second place, they
propose to give the farmer only
three-fourths of the advance in
the market, which compells the
farmers to take all of the decline
and only get three-fourths of the
advance.
Taking the present price of
cotton to be &c per pound, if the

the amount they have advanced,
