Comparatively few Montana people
know that the Crow Greek valley is
one of the finest and most fertile
sections of the state.
This beautiful valley is located IN
BrOadwater county and extends west
from the town of Toston, on the
Northern Pacific railroad, a distance
Of about - miles to the old mining
town Of Radersburg, and from
range of mountains on the north a
distance of about 10 miles south
ward. The southern end of the val
ley is about Is miles from the town
Of Three Forks on the Northern Pa
cific and the Chicago, Milwaukee and
st. Paul railroads.
Soil Very Productive
Crow creek, from which the valley
takes its name, is a small mountain
stream that flows into the valley at
the northwest corner, crosses and
empties into the Missouri river about
Two miles northwest of TostOn.
Spring creek is a tributary to Grow
creek and has its source in a large
spring of hot water in the south cen
tral part Of the valley, about seven
miles from its mouth.
The valley is protected on the north
and west by mountains. The climatic
conditions are ideal. 1t has an ac'
tual growing season of from five tc
six weeks longer than any other point
in Montana east of the Continental
divide. The soil is very productive

December weather was unusually
mild in the western half of the state
and although some cold weather was
noted in the eastern half, stock in
terests apparently were not damaged.
When January opened, lower ranges
and valleys were generally bare of
snow, with range feed reported in a
few localities. Light feeding has
been general in the lower elevations,
but in some Of the higher country
feeding is reported to have averaged
somewhat heavier than to the same
date last year.
Condition Percentages
Range condition for the state as a
whole averaged SO per cent of a nor
NAL on January compared with 80
per cent the preceding month and 81

were slight, with the western third

placed at 100 per cent or fully nor
