CANALS OF KAVALLI COLTNTV. The land of Ravalli County, Avhich contains in round numbers 1,850,000 acres, may be divided into three classes. The western and to a considerable extent the southern part of the county is well tim- bered and mountainous. Through the central portion flows the Bit- ter Root River, on either side of which are to be found large tracts of arable and irrigable land, and in the east the land is undulating and hilly and chiefly devoted to grazing. On the west of the Bitter Root River, which flows north to meet the Missoula, the dense groves of pines, firs, and tamaracks extend from the borders of the valley and in many places from the river bank to the summit of the Bitter Root Range, from 10 to 15 miles distant. On this steep mountain slope, which rises at times 5,000 feet in 5 miles, the green of the pines.
