BIG IRRIGATION PROJECT ON THE

Over Prospect

small amount of work there is a nat
ural drainage from Shields creek to
the center of section Is, where an
auxiliary reservoir will he constructed
for he better control of the water
supply.
Major W. R. Belden, manager of the
Shields Land Company, feels certain
that with the use Of this irrigation
water he will BE- able to raise five
tons Of alfalfa re7 acre each year.
and with the grazing country on the
Standing Rock indian reservation
tributary to Shi Ads, lie will be able
:, fce'' and fatten i large number Of
stock each winter.
As soon as the project is completed
it is expected that a creamery will
be built here and that the raising of
hogs on a. large scale will also be
undertaken.
With the development of this pro-
ject the state engineer feels that not
only will it be a great benefit to the
surrounding community and the town
of Shields, but it will be an example
for others along the Cannon Ball river
to follow, and he further states that
all this Morton county country there
are numerous projects, which, if de-
vdloped, would add great wealth to
North Dakota.

State Engineer Atkinson returned
Sunday from Southern Morton county,
where he has been making surveys
for an irrigation project fer the
Shields Land company, on the Can
nonbaM river, near the town of Shields.
Mr.. Atkinson is very enthusiastic over
the project and feels sure that il
will be developed the coming sum-
mer. The project comprises approx
mately nine hundred acres in sections
10 and 20, township 1872, range SO, and
in sections "a and 49,, township 1872,
range "a. The land surrounds the
townsite of Shields, which is located
on the range line where the four Sec
tons above named corner. Shields
townsite, being located on the north
ern edge of the project, makes it one
of the finest townsites in the state.
the land gently sloping away toward
the Cannon Ball river with very fine
soil and smooth, making it a very
easy project on which to apply the
water.
The water supply is to be taken
from Shields Greek, about a mile and
a half west of the townsite, where an
earth dam twenty feet high and about
400 feet long will be constructed,
which will store sufficient water to
irrigate the entire project. Width a

OUTLOOK OPTIMISTIC
Summary Of Agricultural Situation by tie
Dakota Farmer Very Favorable

all the circumstances, though of
course money is not as "easy" as
usual. This is to be expected follow
ing last years shortage in North d.
kota, this years paucity Of small
grains in South Dakota, and the
rapid settlement Of Montana. Bank
eserves are in a stronger position

two years ago, and as a whole are
better than at the previous date.
Land Values Have Not Declined.
Land prices have been we'll main

general confidence in the stability of
our occupations, our institutions,
and present valuations. Tax collec-
tons have been remarkably good,
everything considered. Undertakings
of all kinds, necessitating the use of
borrowed capital, have been as
strongly financed as at any time in
our history. Some farmers with
short crops have had to renew in.
stead of paying their notes, but such
obligations are usually good as gold.
Future Development.
in these four states will be even
greater than their unparalleled rec
ord to date. We are only on the
threshold of our development. One
bad drouth in 80 years in North d.
kota, in 1910, and a dry spell during
first half of single summer in South
Dakota, 1911, are merely Incidents in
a long period Of uninterrupted pros
perity. Our resources, agricultural
and otherwise, that now await devel-
opment, will afford ample returns for
all the men and money devoted
lnereto.
The Greatest Lesson Of All.
And the great lesson, that good
farming pays good profits even in a
dry year, will be of untold value in
promoting better agriculture wher-
ever careless farming has heretofore
prevailed"

JAMESTOWN, N. D., Dec. 12-The
case of the State VS.. Apley from Logan

term of the District court, converting

attracted considerable notice.
The case was tried at the LAP:

after hard fought battle wherein
States Attorney McKenna appeared
for the prosecution and the defense
was represented by Judge Lauder, of
Wahpeton, the jury were unable to
arrive at an agreement, and the case
was transferred to Stutsman county.

when the case is brought on trial
here today. Mr.. McKenna arrived IN
the city from Napoleon, Sunday morn
Ing, WIN tue prosecuting WltuesS anu
other witnesses for the state, and
spent the day in consultation with
Attorney Thorp.
The alleged crime was committed
in q lonely homesteader's shanty in
Logan county, when the family of
defendant were absent, and he was
alone with his daughter. whom he has
recently brought from Portland, Ore,
where she has been living for several
years past. The trial of the case will
probably consume several days time.

The Dakota Farmer of Aberdeen
S. D., has completed it's investigation
of the general situation in North and
South Dakota, Montana and Wyom'
ing. following completion OF the 1911
harvest.
The report reads in part as fol-
lows: T.
"This inter.nort'hwestern empire
has been more scared than hurt. Its
marvellous recuperative powers are
again illustrated. Crops of even
greater value than ever have been
produced in North Dakota, following
last years unprecedented drouth,
and her bushels of cereals this year
(181 millions) have been exceeded
only two years ago.
The agricultural developments now
going on in Montana are producing
results that will astonish the world,
and Wyoming also is making pro-
gress.
Good Prices Help.
The money pouring into these four
states for the crops of 1911 will ag-
gregate the stupendous sum of near
ly 250,000,O00. This is exclusive OF
live stock sold, dairy products, hay
and forage. Only once before, in the
bonanza season Of 1909, was this re-
turn excelled. Our wheat crop should
bring our farmers about 100000. 900,
corn over $60,ooo,o00, barley $30,ooo,-
900, faxseed $22,000,000.
Bright Future for Live Stock.
Live stock are declining in num-
bers, but increasing in value. The
cattle, sheep, hogs and horses in
these four states are ,. now worth
about $350,000,0O0 There will be a
good market at profitable prices for
every head of cattle, sheep, hogs and
poultry than can be produced.

jolly fellow and one who made friends.
My own position in the service made
me fight shy of him, much to my re-
greet, as it was not always best that
my movements be known to anyone

fact. The persons mentioned were
not all employed on the "Trib" at one

have been others whose names l nev-

time, besides my beloved friend, NJ

their share in making the paper the
hummer it was in those days.

never to be forgotten damsel named
Franklin, who, in the earlier days,
caused more smiles and 'heart-aches
than any other dozen females that
ever struck the territory. She held
many of the old timers in the palm
of her hand, SO to speak, and was the
cause of much newspaper controv-
versy, especially around election time.
The new corners would have food for
thought if they could catch an old
timer in mood to talk of these days
and this particular person. She, her
self, informed me that she left the
town for her health, and the good of
her old friends, when l met her year
after in Miles City.
My earlier recollections of Bismarck
were in the days of the pack-train, the
soldier, shack and prairie schooner,
the bad man and the Indian. and If
your readers wish, at some future
day will, in my own humble way, tel
them of the growth of the city, how
politics was carried on. how, over a
game of "stud," the present capitol
was conceived and built, and the
men who, with that bulldog tenacity
only known among westemers, made
your city possible.
In these "reminiscences I have no
data to draw from and no notes to
refer to and, therefore, have to depend
on memory, and as nearly thirty years
have passed since was in your midst,
and only occasionally see anyone from
that section, it is almost impossible
to remember the name of each indi.

and characteristics of many still re-
main, and, if they do not find their

as l love you all and would only be
too glad to call you by name were
