MORE LAND FOR HOMES.

The opening of the Fort Peck reser-
Vatlon in Montana will undoubtedly
draw the usual big crowd. anxious to
get slice Of valuable farming land at
little cost. 1t is to be sincerely hoped
that those who register for this land
VIII be genuine farmers. and not spec
uIators out for a grab. This for the,
good or those who come to take thei
land as well as for the good of theI
northwest as a whole.
1t is little less than criminal to urge
promiscuous rush for these lands.
There have been in previous openings.
hundreds who have been sorely disan-
pointed. and other hundreds who have
besn worse than disappointed, because
they have lost savings, boarded bv
years Of scrimping, and have perhaps
lost a good steady position into the
bargain.
Not that the lands are not valuable.
This land is splendid farming land.
bis the man who goes onto an open
prairie farm ought to go with his eyes

farmers can get wealthy off these
homesteads. City people who know
nothing of farming. may make a mis-
erable failure of the venture.

comment along this line as follows:

sort of a patron saint and in memory
Of whom she has named buildings,

honored the coming week by great

Great Lakes cities this summer. One
Of the principal attractions, Of course,
xill be the reclaimed and rehabilit

on which Commodore Perry rode ia
victory in the war Of 1872. Parades
and historical exercises will feature
the programme. The latter part Of

be transferred to Old Fort Meigs
which figured conspicuously in the
last war between the United States
