He Has Faith
In Montana

From conversation with A. G..
Arnot, assistant cashier of the First
National Bank of Malta, we learn
that the locality about Park River
N. d., where Mr.. Arnot's boyhood
days were spent and where his father
now resides, had history similar to
this country. Years ago land there
was not considered worth while, a
quarter section at one time selling
for eighteen and three fourths cents
per acre OF $50 for the 16Oacres. Now
this land is valued at $4,000. With
the cultivation of the soil, came a
class of settlers that were farmers
and not idle spectators. These fer
mers who staid with the country
through thick and thin are now en-
jOying every farm comfort. They
ride about overseeing their farms in
large touring cars, have telephone
service and free mail delivery. and in
addition to these comic rts enjoy the
quiet and freedom of country life.
Mr.. Arnot speaks enthusiastically
about the great future of the Milk
river valley.

al matters generally. He believes
the school should, like all other live,
up-to-date educational institutions,
year by year, make progress and
show this progress to the outside
world. He contends, and rightly,
too, that good school is the very
best advertisement town can have,
and so has purchased this expensive
"reward of merit" to excite and
stimulate rivalry for better work
and to encourage the students to
put forth more effort in the ad.
vanced studies. The pupil who re-
ceives this medal ought to feel very
proud of it for it handsome piece of
gold, beautifully engraved, whose
intrinsic value is twenty dollars.

Glasgow Has
Another Fire

At Glasgow fire broke out last
Thursday at 8 p. M, in the operating
room of the Moore Telephone ex-
change almost completely destroying
the equipment and putting the line
out of business. There was delay in
turning in the alarm on account of
the lack of telephone connection and
messenger had to be sent to the
round house and power plant. The
volunteers did splendid work in the
teeth of gale with mercury at IS
below. Manager Moore became COM
pletely encased in ice and was over
come by the cold. He was revived
with difficulty. The equipment
which was western electric No. 1,
multiple board was installed and
opened to the public last week when
the line was completed to Helena.
The loss was covered by insurance.
Manager Moore expects to have the
line ready for use soon.

WIFE'S RESIDENCE NOT ESSENTIAL
ON HOMESTEAD

That the residences of the husband
upon the homestead in determining
whether homesteader has COM
piled with the rules and regulations
of the department is sufficient, was
br ought out in a decision hand
ed down by the commissioner Of the
general land office. In this case the
residence of the wife is not impor-
tance.
The finding was made in the case
of Neil w. Myers against Richard
Sherwood, which has occupied con-
siderable attention at Billings.
Sherman who is a plumber filed on
a quarter section of land about four
miles of town and erected house
and other Improvements theron. He
moved upon the homestead OH Sept.
l, 1909, and late in December his wife
refused to remain as her husband
was away during the day time and
she said she was afraid. She rented
a cottage in the city, but Sherwood
continued to sleep at the homestead.
Myers filed a contest OIL the ground
that Sherwood had failed to comply
with the laws with reference to resi-
dence, and pointed out that, although
Sherwood was sleeping Oh the land,
his family resided in the city.
In his findings i'm behalf of Sher-
wood, the commissioner sald in part:
"When Mrs. Sherwood left the land
she did so contrary to the wishes of
her husband. From that day to the
time of the hearing Sherwood slept
on the land every night and drove to
Billings every morning to attend to
his legitimate business. True, he
contributed to his wife's support, as
he was legally bound to do; but that
does not constitute home. The
husband. having established a home
on the land and having continuously
maintained it, 10 act of his wife
alone can take with her the home
thus established and maintained. 1t
is clear that he fully complied with
the homestead law as to residence,
improvements and cultivation, and
the residence of the wife, wherever
it may have been, becomes an inn
material factor, not even entitled to
consideration"

Apropos of the announcement ex-
pected daily from the reclamation
service relative to the time work will
again be resumed on the Milk River
irrigation project, the settlers To-
Gated near the town of Malta on the
north side Of Milk river, as well as
the citizens of the town, believe that
not only the first unit of the Dodson
North Canal-that being the portion
of tile valley on the north side of
Milk river from Dodson dam, as now
planned, to the town of Wagner-but
also that the second unit of the Dod
son North Canal-the land on the
north side of Milk river from Wagner
to John Hardin's place northeast of
the town of Malta-should also be
constructed in the near future. AS
now planned the reclamation service
intend only to contract for the first
unit of the canal.
With the hope that the work of con-
struction may he carried on in the
second unit as we'll as the first. and
with the view of Fastening operations
petition bearing the signatures of
most of the settlers whose land is
embraced i'm this unit, will soon be
ready to forward to the secretary of
the interior.
There are over 1000 acres, some
of the finest land in the entire valley,
in the second unit and most OF it in
such state of cultivation that album
dant crops are assured the first year
water is delivered. The land en-
braced In this unit is immediately
adjacent to the town of Malta, and
with excellent mark ct facilities. it is
surely to the advantage of the settlers
as we'll as of the business interests of
the town to have this second unit
completed as soon as possible. From
the peculiar nature of the soil, gum
10, as was demonstrated last season,
crops are almost total failure with
out the much needed irrigation.
1t is said that practically every
acre of land i'm the second unit of the
Dodson North Canal is subject to the
building charges by reason of being
subscribed in the Lower Milk River
Water Users association and for all
lands held in excess of 100 acres the
owners have signed the excess con-
tract.

And settle up the stOremans bills
Well have sroin steak, such mother couldn't make
And put some money in our til]s

Saying 'hee hee hee'' if it wasn't for me,
You never would have got that ditch
Well have Cavanaughs best, till the Town can't res
And I'll take a drop myself on the SLY,
And vel paint the Town red for won't have it said
That the ditch will evermore godry.

Serious Fire
At Harlem

A press dispatch from Harlem tells
Of the disastrous fire at that place as
follows: With the thermometer at
25 degrees below zero, Harlem was
visited at / O'Clock Friday morning
by the most disastrous fire in the his
tory of the town, when the New En-
gland hotel and three other business
buildings were totally destroyed.
No water was available with which
to fight the fire, the new water-works
system being installed not being
completed and the citizens were help
less. Three-fourths OF block was
in the path of the flames, a vacant
lot preventing it's further spread. All
of the buildings were frame and
burned fiercely.
The fire originated from defective
furnace. The loss is estimated at
$4,000. The principal loser is w. j.
Hart, owner of the hotel and another
building occupied by Davey, con-
fectioner. Hart estimates his loss
at $50, 900, $4,000 insurance. Davey
saved his stock and Robert Corbet in
All adjoining building saved his har-
ness stock. Two other buildings
were owned by the First National
Bank and w. j. Duke of Chinook.
Harlem is now without first class
hotel. Mr.. Hart will build new
modern hotel, however, as soon as
the weather permit.
