Cherokee Drag On Forty-seven and One-half Aoree In Each Tract Awarded In Irrigation Project Near Billings, Mont.—Canals Thirty-five Milee Long. The apportioning of irrigated lands at Billingo, Mont., the other day was the first of the sort held under the reclamation act, says the Kansas City Star. It was not. as many persons may suppose, a free distribution of farms. It was an opportunity preseut- ed by the government to buy land through which a system of finely built irrigation < dies or flumes with ce ment and steel leeks and gates had been constructed by competent en gineers. These th .gs cost large sums and they must be 4 dd for by the men who file upon the fa. ’s. Approximate ly the cost will be something more than $l,f»50 in installments for farms of forty-seven and one-half acres each. This cost is very reasonable when the fa< t is cons dered that the water sup ply for the future, or .bile the Yellow stone river continues t 1 run. Is assured by the government. The soil assures the crops. Several men In Kansas City drew farms in the new district. In apportioning the Irud the govern ment officials thorougl ly mixed the thousands of envelopes containing the names of applicants and took 1,500 from the many. Of these 1,5<M> the first 031 were entitled to file entries on farms in the order in w. ich their en velopes were numbered. The farms contain an average of forty-seven and one-half acres, which, experience has shown, is about all that any ordinary farmer can cultivate by irrigation. Forty acres are said to be nough. Ail persons who lile 011 the irrigation farms are required to pay the laud offi' e fee. a “building” charge of $30 an acre, to help defray the cost of building canals, locks and oilier parts of the system: a maintenance charge of GO cents an acre until further notice and a charge of $4 an acre for the land to he paid to the Crow Indians. These payments must be made as follows: At the time of entry each ap plicant must pay to the receiver of the Billings land office the usual fees and commissions and $1 of the Indian pur chase price for each acre entered and, in addition, $3 on account of the build ing charge and <50 cents as operating and maintenance charges for each Ir rigable acre embraced In his entry, and thereafter he must pay on the In dian pui' liase price 7~> cents annually for four years, beginning with the end of the second year, for each acre em braced in his entry, and In addition thereto Ik; must, in accordance with notices issued by the secretary of the Interior, pay annually for each irriga ble acre < 1 raced in his entry not less than $3 • account of the building charge and such sum as may from time to ti .:e be fixed as charges for operation a cl maintenance. The build ing charge -T >30 an acre may is; paid in not less than four or more than nine annual installments, in addition to the payment made at the time of entry. This makes the farms cost $1,500 or $1,000 each. The land acquired in the drawing is known as the Huntley reclamation project It is a part of the old Crow Indian reservation ceded to the gov ernment. ritimately the project will provide Irrigation for about 32,000 acres of arid land !.\ ing south of the Yellowstone river and extending from Huntley to Bull Mountain station on the Northern 1’aclflc railway. The tract is from two to four miles wide and nearly thirty miles long. The junction of the Chicago, Burling ton and tpilncy with the Northern Pa cific is at Huntley, at the west end of the Irrigable land, and both railroads extend through the lauds in such a way as to give excellent railroad fa cilities. The reclamation service planned the irrigation system so that water Is to be delivered to practically every farm on the 32,000 acres. The main canal Is built to divert 400 cubic feet a sec ond from the Yellowstone river about two miles west of Huntley. For the first two miles the canal is carried along the Huntley bluffs and approxi mately parallel to the Northern Pacific tracks. This location requires several sections of concrete lined canal and three tunnels, also lined with concrete and aggregating 2.G50 feet In length. The first tunnel, 700 feet long, carries the water from the headgates under the Northern Pacific railway. The main canal Is being built under present contracts to a length of twenty- three and one-half miles and can be extended about eight miles farther when conditions Justify the expendi ture. The structures on the main ca* nal, such as culverts, wastegates, sy phons, bridges and the headgates, are of concrete and st ,, el construction and very substaut'al. The turnouta, cul verts and flumes on the lateral system are well built of wood. The soils vary from a fine sandy loam to a heavy clay. There la a pre ponderance of clay and clay loam soli. Some of theac are strongly impregnat ed with alkali and most of them are underlaid with gravel. The waste water ditches are laid oat so as to pre vent the else of alkali on the lands. Here Is a table prepared by I. D. O’Donnell of Billings, Mont, to show what may be done on an Irrigated farm of forty acres: Twenty acres alfalfa, 1M tone at V..

Architect’s Prediction of Skyscrapers One Thousand Feet High. • The time of the thousand foot tall skyscraper in this country is so near that it is no joke.” declared Architect Henry llorubostel, who has planned the forty story tower addition to the Allegheny county (Pa.; court ho#kc, which is to la; 700 feet high, the other night in an address before the Pittsburg board of trade, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. “I believe that the time will come within the next twenty years when we will : ee buildings at least a thousand feet high in this coun try. They will be located in our larger cities, of course, for there the neces sity of concentration in business is most pronounced.” Mr. Hornbostel, explaining his forty story tower plan, said that the office building was distinctively an Ameri can idea, which grew from the neces sity of concentration of business and the increasing realty values. Mr. Hornbostel spok<- of the econom ical feature of the tower as an induce ment. The tower would cost, he said, from $2,0< NJJJOO to $2,500,000, while the cost of another building across Dia mond street from the present court house, including the cost of the site, would l>e at least $4,000,000 and possi bly more. The tower would be 70 by 70 feet at the base. Above the roof of the present building the size of the tower would increase to bo by 80 feet for several stories. In this Increased space ten or twelve courtrooms are planned. Above the courtrooms to tin* clock near the top of the tower are to l»e offices, with the top of the tower ornamental. Mr. Hornbostel said the tower would not la- affected even by a l»olt of lightning, as the electricity would be consumed by the steel structure, and that the building would stand tremen dous wind pressure, estimating that it would take ”G(> miles of wind a minute to dangerously affect it. AFTER A MILE OF CENTS. Kanaaa Methodists Will Raise a Mort gage In That Way.

Tin* oVect ;> to gain r a mile of cents. ! to do this there was given to each member a narrow strip of paper a foot in length. Each foot will hold just 10 cents. It is calculated that when the mile or cents is received the sum of $M4.4S will have been raised, the exact amount of the interest and principal of the mortgage at this time. The Lakin women have figured out that it takes ju^t s l,14S cents to make a mile if they are laid in a row. Woman Rai way Grader.. That a young woman may help in building a grade for a railway is prov ed by Miss Ansea Rowe, daughter of Andrew Rowe, a prosperous farmer liv ing four miles north of Waupaca, Wis., through whose farm the new Waupaca- Creen Bay line will pass, says the Mil waukee Hentinel.

Roberts of Pawnee County, Kan., Agrees to Give His Daughter In Marriage to J. A. Morgan In Two Years if Thay Won’t Run Away. Suitor Determined to Win His Bride. On consideration that J. A. Morgan will refrain for two years from trying to elope with Miss Stella Roberts, George W. Roberts, a Pawnee county farmer in Kansas, father of the girl, has signed an agreement with the young man promising to give him the young woman in marriage at the end of that time, writes a Lamed (Kan.) correspondent of the Kansas City Star. This most unusual agreement is as fol lows : “George W. Roberts and J. A. Mor gan enter into the following agree ment, to wit: The said J. A. Morgan agrees to engage In some legitimate and profitable employment for the pe riod of two years from this date and for the said time not to interfere with the said George W. Roberts in the management of his daughter, Stella A. Roberts. George W. Roberts, In con sideration of the carrying out of the foregoing agreement hy the said J. A. Morgan, hereby gives his consent for his said daughter and the said J. A. Morgan to enter into the bonds of matrimony at any time after the ex piration of tin* said two years.” The agreement Is duly signed by Morgan and Roberts and witnessed by H. S. R* igers and Wesley Lane. This queer contraet is the sequel of an elopement which occurred several days ago. Miss Roberts is not yet quite fifteen years old. Morgan is less than twenty, so that the two knew that they could not obtain the consent of her parents to their marriage. Knowing tills, they decided upon an elopement. After all the family had gone to bed Miss Rolierts slipped out of the house and m ;t Morgan in a grove a quarter of a mile away. The two drove to Macksville. return ed their livery team and then got a man to drive them to Stafford. From there they took a train to Morgan s home in Carthage, Mo. There was consternation in the Rob erts home the next morning, but the liveryman gave the father a clew, and a warrant was secured for Morgan charging him with abduction. He was arrested in Carthage before he could secure a marriage license and readily agreed to return to Kansas. In the meantime Mr. Roberts had been making some inquiries and learn ed that Morgan was a hard working young man of good family and would apparently make a very acceptable son- in-law. '!1iis induced the father not to prosecute tin* young max and to pro- po-e tin* agreement wlii'li was after- j ward entered into. Miss Roberts is ' again at home, and Morgan is hack at work on the Brown farm nearby, de termined to live up to the contract. BOGUS BARONETS. 8om* Editorial DifficuRiaa.

Ann'her interesting revelation is that 'there is nothing to prevent a woman from as suming the title.

The medical inspector who recently visited the lonely island of Ht. Kilda sends to the Scotsman some particu lars of the life led hy the residents there. This is what he says about the Sunday sermon in church: “No hymn books are used and no in struments of music. When the psalm had b<4*u rend over the precentor arose, and I confess to Jumping in my seat as he led off the first line with a yell. Then followed a rush of sound from the congregation like the shriek of a storm. The notes of the first line were recognizable as from the Scottish Psalmody. The seo*ond was ornament ed with grace notes, such as Highland pi tiers love. The rest was mere con fusion.” Still, the writer adds, ont of this massed unloveliness one could distin guish good voices, which only required some training to be tuneful and pleas ing. How a Poet Thinks. In a recent lecture on Victor Hugo. Jean Rlcbepin declared that when a lyric poet thinks of a word there comes into his mind, together with the crowd of association* that the word awakens for other people, a great nomlier of words that rhyme with the oue first thought of. Each of these brings its own association of Ideas, and thus the poet's mental vision of words Is vastly richer than that of persons who think of them only in their ordinary Individ- nal meanings. M.

After having Kpont more than sixty years and more than $10,0u»> in hunt ing l*ears and studying the ways of wild creatures Greenleaf Davis of Bangor. M«*., lias iiegiin to raise tame woodpeckers with the purpose of ising them to convert ordinary rock maples into hlrdseye maple, sa.v* a Bangor correspondent of the Chicago Tribune. Mr. Davis is more than eighty. Sixty years ago he inherited a mil! property valued at $10,000, which he sold, and then he went to the woods under the side of Mount Katahdln. He lias tamed many wild animals. His great Miccess has been won with woodpeek :*s, of which lie now has nearly a hundred. They are of the hairy and downy sjie- eies in about equal numbers, hut more than both of these in number and es teem are the redheaded sup suckers, which pick round holes in the bark of trees, making them look like the imt- tom of an old style colander. The redheaded woodpecker made sad havoc in ids sap orchard, dlggin holes In bf* best maples and impairing the flow of sap. from which much of ids living was derived. It was impossible to ki!l the birds because of the com pany they arTorded. and it was equally Iiiip'Hsihlc to live without the Income from the sap orchard. The old man spent week.* in ids grove watching the result of the wounds which the birds Inflicted <»n the bark. As the scars healed he noticed that there was a bright red spot left on the wood directly below the wound. If the tree was badly marked the red spots were more numerous than they were on trees whi'di had suffered ic*s. while ou trees which the woodpeckers had not visited there were no traces of red. About this time It occurred to him that ns the iieautiful markings of the hlrdseye maple were due to the red spots in the wood and as nobody had ever lieeu aide to account for them it was possible that the variety of maple known as hlrdseye might owe its ori gin to the work of the woodpeckers. If so he had made ft discovery that had baffled iiotanlsts for years. He had also learned how to make his colony of tame woodpeckers self supporting. G. B. Burhana Testifies After Four Year®. G. B.
