The passing Of the cattle range in
Montana has been discussed in po-
etry, in song, in editorial columns and
in the news columns for few years.
The once magnificent expanse of
range is gradually diminishing be-
fore the encroachment of the home
steader and dry farmer, in whose
hands are the agricultural destinies
of the state, and who has brought
about an almost complete reversal of
the old time order of things.
More forcibly than anything else
that has come to light with the pass
ing of the range is the word from
eastern Montana, the last stamping
ground of the large herds and flocks
in the state, telling of the appeals Of
some stockgrowers to the interior de-
partment for rights of way on which
to move their cattle from the ranges
to the railroad.
