Announcement
We wish to announce that the
Harlowton Orchestra which for
some time past has been somewhat
weak owing to not having been
able to secure a competent piano
player, has been reorganized and
the old, well known orchestra has
taken on new life. We have been
so fortunate as to secure the ser
vice of Miss Pearl McCall, an ac
complished pianist, and in the near
future will be able to furnish the
best of work for any occasion. We
hope that the public of Harlowton
and vicinity will patronize our en
tertainments and thereby show
their appreciation of our effort to
maintain a first class orchestra.

A cipher is not of much use,

Tamm and his force of assistants
considerable trouble and demon

the omission of a cipher made the
rate, Harlowton to Seattle and re

ACTION
Carey Land Act Board Say
its up to Government
to Act
At a recent meeting of the Com
mercial Club the proposition of
the large tract of land segregated
near this town about two and one
half years ago under the Carey
Land Act, was under discussion
and Secretary J. V. Kelley took
the matter up with the State Car
ey Land Act Board.
The following self-expliknatory
letter has been received by Mr.
Kelly from the Board:
Dear Sir:-At a meeting of the
Carey Land Act Board which was
held yesterday, June 16, 1911, the
Board had your letter of June 2,
under consideration with regard to
the land segregated north of Har
lowton, under the Carey Act, and
directed the following reply there
to: That the entire matter with
reference to the Musselshell pro
ject, was under consideration be
fore the Department of the Inter
ior, and that no action could be
taken by this Board, until that is
disposed of.
Very respectfully yours,
G. R. Davies, Assistant Secretary,
Carey Land Act Board.
The Contest Suit Filed
Suit was filed last week in the
district court at White Sulphur
Springs contesting the recent bond
election. P. R. Wild is the con
testant and the commissioners of
Meagher county are named as the
defendents. The course of action
as alleged in the complaint is that
the judges in the precincts of Har
lowton, Nihill and Oka fradulent
ly and unlawfully allowed illegal
voting, and that the results in
their precincts be declared null
and void. Gunn and Hall of Hel
ena and N. B. Smith of White
Sulphur Springs are attorneys for
the plaintiff, while it is reported
that Walsh and Nolan of Helena
have been engaged by those inter
ested at this end of the county.

A Clever Reply.
Mme. de Maintenon once asked Lord
Stair why it was that the affairs of
government were so badly managed in
France under a king and so well man
aged in England under a queen. "For
that very reason." replied the English
ambassador. "for when a man reigns
the women rule him. and when a wo
man reigns she is ruled by men."

"I had such a good time the other
day watching my wife's discomfiture."
"Nice thing to say. How was it?"

in the morning and smoked all day
in spite of her."-Baltimore American.

Send Out a Great Many
Bulletins
Bozeman, June 19. - Twenty
thousand of the experiment station
bulletins known as "Dry Farming
Investigations in Montana" have
been shipped to the Northern Pac
ific at St. Paul, from where they
will be distributed to prospective
immigrants to Montana. The bul
letin at the time of first publica
tion last winter was considered
one of the most valuable works
ever turned out by the station,
and 20,000 distributed in Montana
at that time. Since that time a
supplementary order for 10,000
more was made by the station.
The order of the Northern Paci
fic for the large number of copies
of this bulletin indicates a rapidly
growing interest in Montana's dry
farming possibilities. The rail
road company pays all expenses of
publishing those ordered.
The bulletin is by Alfred Atkin
son, agronomist, and J. B. Nelson,
superintendent of the dry farm
sub-stations. It contains about
40 pages of tables of results and
explanations, together with somen
illustrations and other information.
The work is based on experiments
carried on for six years at the diff
erent sub-stations of Montana and
the comparisons and investigations
of results contained in the bulletin
are of great valhe to the dry land
farmer, or to any one interested in
that industry.
