Will Lay Heavy Rails -40- 0.— Milwaukee to Strengthen The Lewistown Line In the Spring •-•-•- Private advices from Chicago are to the effect that the Mil- waukee will put 85 pound rails on the entire Lewistown branch from Harlowton so that heavy material for now exteations from this city, can be hauled in while construct- ion w‘rk is in progress. The lighter rails will be taken up and replaced by 85 pound rails. Which will en- able the roadbed to carry tho heaviest trains. The road will build to Grass Range just as soon as weather con- ditions will permit. If crop con- ditions are good in the Winnot and Weed° section then the extention will go further east.

Thus homesteaders will be able to get title after cultivtion of their land ((Jr three successive summers and will be permited to be away from the land in the winter.
