Bic Fl. Peck Lake
Now Reaches $50
Miles Above Dam

ROY - John Town and w. R.
Town report that the waters OF
the Fort Peck lake, are just now
starting to overflow ove their
fields. Their ranch is nearly $50
miles above Fort Peck, but about
95 percent of the river flow is be-
ing held so the water is rising
quite rapidly.
The upper end of the pool now
stands at the Mackler ranch. Fields
along the Musselshell river are also
disappearing beneath the waters.
The fields of the Roland Mat
hewS ranch are now under water
so this cuts off the former road
leading to the river ranches by way
of Valentine, so that now the only
way to reach these ranches is by
way of Little Crooked and Chain
Butte roads.
The highest water level of last
brought the water level
hardly to the Petroleum county
line. Now about Is miles of the
Petroleum county line is along the
lake shore and the water is grad

county line. Before the summer of

people of the upper states of taking
any action detrimental to the inter
ests of the lower states
He said he believed there IS
enough water in Montana to lrrigate
2 900 900 more acres if the water IS
properly conserved and stored, but
certainly no one wants to interfere
with navigation
Through proper storage on the
river" he added. II think we can
give you more water for navigation,
and in addition in our country to
irrigate as much as we properly ana
reasonably can.
This committee gives us an OPP
portunity to compose any difterenI
ces we may have and to move aheaa

conflict and without litigation"

She said they felt no immediate
alarm, but the flames spread rapidly
to a small shed just a few feet
