WATER INEXHhUSTABLE
IN MOlESE VALLEY WELL

D. II. Milton struck water on
Olaf Peterson's place, at a depth
Of 176 feet, in a total time of
eleven hours. He has AZ feet Of
the best of water and the supply,
says Mr.. Milton, is inhaustable.
The first So feet was drilled in
three and a half hours, and no
stones were encountered during
the whole process. Only a hard
pan of about five feet in thickness
lays over the water, which is in a
loose gravel. Mr.. Milton says it
seems like a sheet Of water or un-
derground lake and he believes it
extends under the whole valley at
the same depth.
The outcome Of Mr.. Peterson's
we'll has been watched for by
many in the valley. and it means
a great stroke of encouragement
to the people out there to know
that good water in abundance is
to be found at so reasonable a
depth. Mr.. Milton believes that
flowing water may be had by 60
ing a little deeper, and if such is
the case and a flow heavy enough
for irrigation purposes can be
tapped it will mean wonders for
the Moiese valley-DiXon Herald.

ANNOUNCE MORE ROAD M

Chairman Curran and Com

callers at the Pioneer office We'd
nesday. They had just returned
from an inspection of the work
being done west of town and
while here announced the pro-
gram to be followed in road i'm
provement on the reservation.
They stated that Road Super
visor Jos. Bouchard would con-
tinue grading from Grow creek
south about three miles further.
making good road almost to
Post creek. This, with the
grading done north of town,
will make a fine road from Mud
creek to Ravalli, as George
Keith will start work at once at
Marcy's, near the south line of
the Nine-Pipe reservoir, and
grade to and beyond Post creek.
They say if Geo. Williams will
allow them to take the gravel
from his place needed to gravel
the road at Post creek, they will
fix that portion of the road so it
will not need it again soon.
Between the Mission and Ra-
valli the work is progressing
rapidly and there will soon be a
fine road there. Several steep
grades have been eliminated and
the much needed work has al
most been finished.
West from Roman to the big
Or round butte they intend tc
have much work done, and will
put this stretch of road in as
good condition as anywhere on
the reservation. Road Super
visor Rinke now has two Fresnos
at work with five teams and
more will be added as required.
All the steep grades will be cut
down and the low places flleC
and the road graded wherever
needed.
The people are under obi.
cations to the present board fol
the work being done and con.
templated and with a little CO
operation on the part of the
people owning land where roads
are necessary, the reservation
will soon be better off in this
respect than most any other por
ton of the state.

MAKING ARRANGEMENTS
TO SHIP CREAM OUT

Jesse B. Robinson, travelling
salesman for the DeLaval cream
separator company, was in Ro-
nan Wednesday and while here
called at the Pioneer office and
outlined a plan to assist the
farmers in disposing Of dairy
and creamery products. Mr..
Robinson said that the plan was
to ship either to Missoula or to
Butte the cream from the COWS
of the F'lathead. This will af-
ford a better price and therefore
more profit, than to sell the but
ter in the local market at prices
usually prevailing during the
hot summer months.
Mr.. Robinson says that by
shipping in ten gallon cream cans
the Big Store auto truck will car
ry the cream to Ravalli any day
the truck goes at so cents per
hundred and return the cans
gratis. On days the truck might
be out of commission, T. l..
Bateman agrees to take the
cream to the railroad at the same
price, and will bring the cans
back when not too over loaded.
The railroad charges are paid
by the creamery companies, so
this would be the only extra eX-
pense connected with the selling
of cream to outside creamerias.
Mr.. Robinson says he has been
in the dairy business all his life
and will state fact in this, that
any farmer with four COWS will
make more money out of them
than he can out of 20 acres Of
land planted to anything raised
in this country, and do it every
month in the year.
This would be the entering
wedge and will bring a creamery
to Roman in short order, or just
as soon as there is enough cream
to warrant the building Of a
creamery here. 1t is just what
is needed most of all.

INACCURATE BIG CAMPAIGN

advertising Montana in a special
list of farm and rural publications
calculated to reach upwards of
five millions Of people in the mid

the United States. Large display
advertisements, a reproduction of
one of which is shown herewith,
will greet the eyes and invite the
inquiries Of these people in COM
polling manner that is expected
to produce big results. The a :
vantages Of the state from agri-
cultural and industrial stand
points, and the opportunities not
only for the farmer but the bust
ness man and investor, are set
forth.

Wants Law Made Complete.

While greatly pleased over the
ultimate passage of the three
year homestead law which bears
his name, Senator Borah of Idaho
is anxious before adjournment to
secure the final enactment of his
accompanying bill, which pro-
vides that homestead settlers on
government irrigation projects
shall receive patent to their lands
upon complying with the require
ments of the homestead law, in
stead of waiting, as at present,
until they have completed their
water payments.
Under the reclamation law a
patent is not issued, as usual
thing, until the end of ten years,
for the settler is allowed that
much time in which to pay for
his water. This is working a
hardship on many settlers, who,
could they get patent after three
years, or even five, could mort
gage their lands and raise suffi-
Gent money to properly equip
their farms and tide over hard
years. Western men generally
are in favor Of this bill, and its
enactment will make complete
the operation of the three-year
homestead bill, for, as the law now
stands, the three-year bill will
not compel the issuance of patent
to homesteaders on reclamation
projects unless they have met
their water payments in full.
The second Borah bill has passed
the senate, but awaits considera-
ton in the house.
AS the session draws to a close,
special provision will be made for
the consideration of bills on the
calendar, and at this time Sena-
tor Borah hopes to see his bill
put through. 1t is approved
practically by every western man
in congress and is a measure to
which there can be no legitimate
objection, as the government is
given a lien upon the land to
guarantee the payment of all un-
paid water charges. This bill
would place the irrigation home
steader on the same footing with
the private land owner whose
lands are included in a govern
ment project. Anaconda Stand

would itch and burn by spells. and
scratching them would not seem to
give any relief When the trouble first
began, my wrist and shin itched like
poison. would scratch those places
until they would bleed before / could

would scale over, and the flesh UNI
derneath would look red and feverish.
Sometimes it would begin to itch until
it would waken me from my sleep.
and I would have to go through the
scratching ordeal again.

the doctor gave me, but it did no good
Then he advised me to try>the Cuti-
cura Remedies. As this trouble has
been in our family for years, and is
