ancient HISTORY
OF STATE FOUND
MANY PREDICTIONS MADE FOR
MONTANA 90 YEARS AGO COME
TRUE.

Billings, Mont, Dec. z9.-One Of the
most interesting volumes in the Billings
library has just been placed on the
shelves for circulation.
The book is a history Of Montana and
the Yellowstone national park. written to
Robert r.. Etraborn and copyrighted in
1881.
The number Of predictions made in
the book that a come true are re-
markably up To date. He says that Of the
$1,000, 900 acres Of la d In the territory.
1G. 900 600 are suitable for cultivation. An
ex-surveyOr general Of the territory. ne
says, estimates hat there 8 In the more
prominent valleys alone room for 80, 600
first class farms Of 100 acres each, while
another estimates that there Is a strict.

extent than the entire area Of Ohio.

The historian tells OF a large fllii.
farm at T.. d. Bass in the Bitter Root
valley where he ''plucked some Of The
largest nd most delicious apples, plums,
grapes and Siberian crabs he ever saw.
Mr.. Bass at that time had 5000 apple
trees from 2 to Q years old. of which
number 4 900 we're bearing.
Ono Of the amusing statements of
the historian is that "the only serious
drawback Montana farmers have ever
commended against ID the grass hopper.
Three pests have never yet committed
such wholesome destruction In the noun

Sixteen Days Stage Drive.
That he did not consider himself nor
the people Of his time as pioneers IN
Montana is evidenced by the statement
that the pioneers who "went to Montana
in 1863 -'4-'5 and g, never came a thought
Of the Rocky mountains as permanent
residence; they were there merely TO get
a fortune, and return to the states Of
which they always spoke as home. The
Pacific railroad was as yet Il scheme
whose successful execution was profile
matical. The nearest railroad station was

ATTAINED SUCCESS
3 FROM HIS farm
FORMER STATE SENATOR HAS De.
VELOPED EXCEEDINGLY FINE
DAIRY FARM. 9

Grand Sorks, N. D., Dec. 90
Thirty years 6 former Senator Jere-
miah D. Bacon Of Grand Forks was a
hometsader. He prospercd, however. and
today owns and manages the leading no.
tel in Grand Forks, owns a large major.
ity Of the stock in the two leading daily
papers Of the city. is a heavy stakeholder
in one Of the city's trust companies, owns
a livery stable. and Is a farmer on a large
scale, operating Lilac Hedge farm of
1,630 acres just outside OF Grand Forks,
besides controlling large tracts Of land in
other parts Of the state.
Mr.. Bacon is q model farmer or the
operator Of a model farm. Lilac Hedge
farm is an example to the people Of
the state as to What d, North Dakota
farm can do when scientifically man
aged. Last year on this farm the yield
Of oats was rs bushels to the acre, and
the wheat ran 80 Ia bushels to the acre.
Corn was grown that came at once into
demand as seed. All this in North Da.
kota, where the averages for oats and
wheat are below those Of Mr.. Bacon and
where corr is a comparatively new crop,
shows that North Dakota can do things
when the farmer gives proper encourage
ment.
Has Fine HoIstein Herd.
But the pride Of this farm is it's Hol.
stein herd Of 1870 animals. Mr.. Bacon
takes pride in fine stock. He talks of
the principal sire II this herd with keen
pleasure. This animal has twice taken
the grand prize at the North Dakota
state fair. Then there are cows in
the herd with records that make them
worth thousands. Every animal is mum
bered, and No. %, a COW seven years
old, on Wednesday, Dec. II. yielded 1904
pounds of milk, which tested 4 per cent
butter fat. This is believed to be the rec
ord for North Dakota, though cows in
other states have surpassed it. Last
year COW No. 81 scored S5.5 pounds Of
milk, which tested 3.6 per cent of butter
fat. Other cows have mad records al
most as good.
Uses Scientific Methods.
Such results nave been obtained by
careful breeding. by a careful study Of
feeding, the use Of ensilage and alfalfa,
and by giving the cows the most COM
Portable quarters possible Mr.. Ba-
barns and COW yards are model.
Another favorite kind Of stock with
Mr.. Bacon is the Duroc Jersey hog. a
OF these animals from Mr.. Ba-
farm topped the market at South
St. Paul on Dec. Is, bringing $7.55

The appropriation was made with that
understanding. Last spring two or three

what work is done will either be at the
experiment farms or under the direction
