The first step toward mapping out
an economical agricultural program
for the entire state was taken at Bill
lngs a few days ago when about go
representative farmers Of Saltwater,
Carbon, Big Horn, Treasure, Rosebud
and Yellowstone counties gathered to-
gether and named committees TO
make an extensive study of the pro-
duction and marketing problems Of
growers Of the district.
Findings Of these committees will
be reported to the extension service
Of the State college Of Agriculture at
Bozeman. The ultimate plan is for
like meetings to take place in the six
districts into which the state has been
divided and reports from committees
from each to be made to the extern
sion service.
These meetings are to be followed
by a statewide conference of dele
gates from each district to be held at

fective on August /. 1894 Their own
ers were compensated by the British
government to the extent OF 10000
900 (about $97.O0O,O00) sterling.
Slavery was abolished In the East In
