Thenewcountry In Adams/ Hettinger, and Bowman Counties, North Dakota, and Butte County, South Dakota, is now reached by the new track. The soil is a dark loatu with clay subsoil, and produces in abundance wheat, oats, barley, spelz, flax, corn and potatoes. The land iswell adapted tofarming, goodwater is found at a depth ot from twenty to fifty feet, and thewhole country Is underlaid with lignite coal that out­ crops along thestreams, and inmost coses canbe hadfor the digging. The climate is healthful, the air is dry and invigorating, and tho percentage of sunshiny dayB k high. Outdoor work can bo done almost every day in the year. Rainfall is amply suffi- * cientto raise the crops. Regular mail service has been established, the roads are good, rural telephone lines traverse the country, and automobiles are in common use. The deeded land in this district sells lor from $10 to $13 per, acre. There are many instances this year where the crop equalled In value the cost of the land. r- lii Butte County, South Dakota, there is considerable governmentland open for homestead entry, ■ Government landoffices are maintained at Lemmon, Hettinger and Bowman, where filings and final proofs'may be made. All of these towns are on the new line of the *► Chicago M ilwaukee & S t Paul Railway In Montana, the-aewlrailroad traverses good farming laud. It has been demonstrated that big crops of grain may be raised. Along theYellowstone and Mussellshell rivers, tho water is used for Irrigation, and phenomenal yieldsofalfalfa, sugar beets, and grain, arealways certain. In tho Judith Basinnear Lewiatowd, Montana, is one of tho most remarkable sections to bo found on the new lino. Undernatural rainfall, the famous bench lands produced thia year an average of 35 bushels of hard wheat to tho acre, and tho price was 01centsperbushel. The basin contains about 2500 square miles and is sparselysettled. Some government land still remains open for settlement. A government land office ismaintained at Lowlstown. In Fergus County, outside tho Judith Basin, is one of the greatest stock countries in thoworld, and good ranches can bo purchased at treasonable figure, Tho Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Co. has established ail immigration’department for the purpose ot assisting in tho settlement and development of tho new lands nor/ bring opened/ Pamphlets descriptiveof its resources will be forwarded freo on request..
