Does This Interest You?
A Blade Wccder that al)solutcly does not
skip an inch of ground; that can be easily
dumped without stopping; that distributes
the trash over the field instead of piling: it
up; that the cutting depth can be easily and
instantly regulated to any desired depth;
one that is not complicated and has nothing
to adjust or get out of order should interest
anv farmer.
The New HALL "NON-SKIP" WEEDER

THIS!
If YOU were buying a farm, what would YOU consider as important points in making your decision?
HOW DOES THIS STRIKE YOU?

1th RAINFALL:
Judith Basin (Central Montana)
RED WATER VALLEY (Easl'n Mont.)
Havre, (Northern Montana)
Shelby (Northern Montana)
Gmtt Falls (Central Montana)
Hamilton (Western Montana)
In the famous RED WATER VALLEY District, of East
ern Montana.
Guaranteed by the EASTERN MONTANA LAND COM
PANY one of the largest farm land operators of iin
iiestioncrl standing.
We have choice lands in the RED WATER VALLEY Dis
trict, 75 to 10U per cent tillable, at prices ranging from
Slo.00 to $30.00 an acre.
To decide this point, we do not have to guess. We go to
the official figures of the UNITED STATES GOVERN
MENT, and pi-esent a table compiled from Government
lecords showing the rainfall for the five year period end
ing with 1016' and covering the better known wheat dis
tricts of Montana.
Five Year
nnual Average
10.7( inches
19.32 inches
1-1.71 inches
11.03 inches
18.11 inches
11.02 inches
Growing Season
May, June, July
10.00 inches
0.0 1 inches
7..r2 inches
0..r7 inches
S.R1 inches
o.2) inches
Reference to the above table shows that the REDWATER VALLEY Dis
trict has a rainfall practically identical with that of the famous Judith Basin,
which is generally recognized as the most highl.v developed wheat district in
the state," and where the lands are selling from $o().(i0 to $100.00 an acre.
T,ih SOIL:
Gth WATER:
rth CLIMATE:
Chocolate loam, four to twenty feet deep, with clay sub
soil. Very fertile, comparatively level and free from
i ocks and brush.
Good water for all purposes and in unlimited quantity
can be secured at from 15 to 45 feet. Live springs are
common to the entire district, with small running streams
in some places. When we say GOOD WATER, we don't
mean salt water, alkali or mineral wafer, but pure, good
tasting, drinking water.
You don't need to be afraid of Montana winters in this
section. Due to its more southerly location the winters
are not nearly as severe as in the more northern areas.
Real cold weather seldom comes before Christmas, and
plowing frequently begins as early as March.
ni
In addition to the above advantages that the REDWATER VALLEY District offers, there are other attractive features. One of them is the fact that practically all of
the land is underlaid with coal. You don't have t) pay $11.00 a ton for it dig out all you want and haul it home free of charge.
Another is the fact that the raw land is covered with a heavy growth of Buffalo grass and Blue-joint, upon which cattle fatten at all times of the year, thus affording
an opportunity for stockraising on a small scale, and avoiding the danger of "putting all your eggs in one basket."
WE ARE THE EASTERN OREGON AGENTS FOR THE EASTERN MONTANA LAND COMPANY, which owns or controls many thousands of acres of Dawson and
Prairie County lands and we believe that this district offers a better opportunity for profitable investment than any other section of the entire Northwest.
Descriptive literature and detailed information can be had at our office.
