Grain Culture
on Big Reserve

Speeding over the magnifi-
cent Seville flats on a trans
continental train, the traveller
oeholds only unpeopled
plains on every side, to the
horizons rim, and doubtless
ne would be quite ready to
book you in the Annanias So
ciety if you told him that
within three miles from the
track are to be found fine,
modern homes, cultivated
fields that have produced
crops for several years, dairy
and range cattle, fat hogs and
sleek cattle on the hills. A
long the Cut Bank bottoms,
on the upper Two Medicine
and in the Babb country the
Stockmen have for years been
giving more or less attention
to grain farming and garden
ing and they have had I'M
qualified success. Or the
Two Medicine John Hagan
and others have been raising
fine crops of oats, barley and
other cereals and at the Fam
lily Mission farming has been
carried on quite extensively.
Up in the St. Mary country
A. E. Paisley, the Galbreaths
and many others not SO we'll
known have raised very fine
grain crops. In the Cut Bank
valley Jas. A. Perrine, Sam
Dunbar, w. E. Haggerty,
VIM. Wetzel, the Burd
brothers, Patsy Higgins and
many more have been raising
big grain crops for quite a
while and during the recent
session Of the farmers insti-
tute in Cut Bank many of
those we'll known stockmen
from that region were the
most attentive listeners to
the discussions and asked the
most pointed questions on
modern farming ideas. The
cabbages and potatoes raised
on the "PatSy'' Higgins ranch
have gained fame for that
amiable Celt and each year
they have found a ready mar
ket at Browning and Black
foot.

Rail Activity
in Year 1918

The opening of the spring
of 1o13will witness the great
est campaign of railway
building in northern Teton
county in its history-or III
the history of any part OF
Montana.
Late this autumn the Mil
waukee surprised the public
by filing articles for the con-
Struction of a branch line
from Great Falls to Choteau.
This action stirred the Great
Northern and immediately
that road made a move to
beat the Milwaukee into the
county seat town of old Te-
ton. Both roads have done
some preliminary work and
early next spring active con-
struction work will probably
begin by both systems. From
Choteau the Milwaukee ex-
poets to extend into the Flat
head country and to throw
another line northward, to
the famed Pincher Greek
coal fields in Canada. Cut
Bank is directly in the route
of this branch.
About two months ago the
$500" or c. P. R. placed in
the field west Of Cut Bank a
party of surveyors who are
now busy at work mapping
out the course of that road,
from one of the Dominion
cities north of us, thru the
big coal region, into Mon
tana by way of the St. Mary
country and down this way.
The present survey for the
route is only three miles
west of this city and this sur
vey may be changed so that
this would become one of
the towns on the line of the
500. "
Certain it is that these rail-
way activities have passed
the "paper' stage. The sur
veyors are putting in their
best ticks, supplies are being
ordered, head officials are
looking over the routes. The
roads will be built thru north
ern Teton county. AS to the
exact route, none but the
"higher up officials seem to
know at present.
