Fascinating map, brochure and letter, promoting the town of Kalispell, Montana, to a prospective Homesteader, H. Edward Moore of Janesville, Wisconsin.
The map and brochure were published by the Kalispell Chamber of Commerce.
The letter, written by Chamber Secretary P.N. Barnard, recommends against Homestead Act lands and instate suggests "cut over" lands, which could be purchased for $10 to $30 per acre, which he describes as "excellent alfalfa and blue grass land as well as for general farming." He further notes that "this is a fine climatic region, extremely satisfactory for stock raising and dairying."
The brochure provides a detailed promotional account of the advantages of Flathead County, Montana.
