PASTURAGE FOR SHEEP.
The Great 'Northern ltallirav I'artlally
Solves tlie I'rolilein.
The Great Northern railway furnishes
a possible solution of our sheepmen's
troubles, and one that is well worth ex
amining into. It will provide for such
sheep as are to be marketed only, but it
will furnish pasturajje for that many
and relieve the pressure to that extent.
Mr. B. H. Langley, traveling agent for
the company is in the city, will remain
here for two or three days, and it will be
well for our sheepmen to interview him.
The proposition he makes is this.
The Great Northern will bill sheep
through to Chicago at the regular rates,
with stop over privileges of lour, five or
Eix monthB. In Northwestern Montana,
between Williston and Minot, on the
line of the road, a distance of 125 miles,
is a fine stock country which is practi
tically unused. It is a magnificent Bum
mer range, but the long and severe
winters prevent stockmen settling in it,
and it has never been pastured. The
Great Northern will haul sheep to this
range, allow them to stop until the own
ers are ready to move them this fall,
when they will be taken on to Chicago.
Mr. Buckley, of the firm of Kerr &
Buckley, has just returned from a visit
to this section and we understand will
ship 10.000 head there as Eoon as shear
ing is over.
Mr. Langley can be found at the Uma
tilla House, wliero full information of
the country can be procured. The mat
ter is well worth looking into.
Since writing the above we have in
terviewed Mr. Buckley, and find that he
is enthusiastic over the find. He starts
