ASection of Montana That is Highly^Favored in This Trying^Season.
Chinook,Montana. Aug. xl ^ |^peclal^Corresponamrc of the Independent. ) ^^Very few of tne resided* of southern and^western Montana are aware of tne rap d^changes now taking place in the Mnk^KlTer valley and the balance of tbe great^reservation of northern Montana, thrown^open (or ^^-[ii.-iii^ nt iioniething over a^ear^ago. Early in February an immigration of^sturdy farmers from t:.^- ^ astern slates set^in to that section of Montana and has con^^tinued in a steady -tr^-am ever since. The^majority of these have taken h m^steads^in the main valley ot tbe Milk, either in tbe^vicinity of Glasgow or Chinook. The Milk^valley will average from three to eight^miles in width, and a large percentage of^its surface is a luxuriant natural hay^meadow, a bonanza this cry season for the^settlers, who art- industriously putting up^thousands of t ns from its hroad acres.
