He says it furnished all the water two or three men can take care of. He now plans to extend his! plan and have his full 100 acres under, irrigation next year. Local men are organizing a con- cern for the promotion of a new oump which will be built for irriga- tion purposes, and which is claimed to be superior to other pumps of it type. of SasSess eee nese irene ene Boom Expected If enough water can be secured to irrigate the lands along;the Little Missouri and Beaver Creek it is ex- yected that much of the bottom lands here which are not worth only’$20 to $25 an acre will quickly, increase in value to:$150 and. more.
