Unique Land Case
Now In Court
Buyer Wants Money Back On Claim
Land Not Good For Farming.

Eastern Montana is involved in a
in the history of the northwest.
w. J. Maxfield, at one time real
estate operator in Terry, but now
living in Minneapolis, has filed suit
there to recover the price of two
sections of land which he bought
from the Northern Pacific Land Com
pany. He alleges that the land in
eastern Montana is not suited to
agriculture and that the advertising
sent out by the railroad company
misled him into making the invest
ment. The two sections which he
bought are between Cherry Creek
and the Redwater Valley close to
the boundary between McCone and
Prairie counties.
The suit Is being tried in Mime
apolis. Mr.. Maxfield's attorneys
have spent considerable time of
late taking testimony of residents of
Prairie and McCone Counties. A
A special car of farmers left on the
Northern Pacific at Terry for Mime
apolis where they will testify as to
the fertility and productiveness of
the Redwater Valley and surround
ing territory. Among the witnesses
were William Allen of Terry, James
Moline, Henry Cook, and Henry
Guldborg Of Brockway.
One of these volunteer witnesses
is said to have made the statement
that he had sold $4,000 worth Of
produce during the current year.
