Fine Crop Prospects in Montague
County-Scarcity of Cotton Seed.

Special
MONTAGUE, TEX April 23.-This
section has not for several years been
visited by as heavy and long -continued
rains as within the past two days.
The roads are literally washed away,
and many farms have been greatly
damaged by the flooding and washing
Of the young crops. The wheat crops
have not been injured, but rather i'm.
proved by the rains, end the prospect
was never betterfor an excellent yield.
The farmers OF Montague county are
all well up with their work, and the
largest crop ever planted is
now coming on in all parts of
the county. There has been
great demand for cotton seed and the
dificulty in obtaining seed has to
some extent limited the crop.
A large crop of grain and grasses
has been planted and the loss OF stock
experienced during the past winter
will not be repeated If efforts to pro-
duce sufficient forage for them in the
future will preventit.
The new courthouse at Montague is
now ready for the roof, and will in
deed be magnificent structure, sur
passed by few counties in the state.
1t will be an honor to the county as
| well as to the architect.
Our district court concluded its ses.
sion last week. 1t was one of the most
interesting sessions of that court ever
held in the county. The full time al
lowed for the term was occupied, and
with constant labor and frequent night
sessions the business could not all be
disposed of.
Money matters have been exceed
ingly tight all the winter and spring,
but our business men have by some
means pulled through and there have
been no failures.
The town continues to improve and
is keeping pace with the growth of the
county without Overriding things"
Several new stone business houses
are going up and numerous cottages
are springing up all around us.
Our people are generally well salts
fled with the political outlook in this
country. They have witnessed with
much satisfaction the firm and con-
servative policy of the new admins
tration as far as developed, and are
well pleased.
Night before last quite serious
wind storm accompanied the rain In
| portions of this county. At Saint Joe
the large school building was taken
from its foundation, and the telephone
between that point and Burlington
was so seriously damaged as to cut OIL
all communication. Several OF the
poles standing within the corporate
limits OF Montague were washed I'd.
The house of Mr.. Davenport was
struck by lightning. The fence was
knocked down ana the ceiling was
torn into splinters at the place OF
entry, but none OF the family was in

The smoky appearance of the horizon
the past week has given rise to the cues
ton, where does it come from. Various
are the explanations, but all agree that 1t
is too early for prairie fires, and that the
only probable ource is that the vast for
ests at the heads Of the various streams
hereahouts are on fire. This seems quite
probable. The effect which the whole
sale destruction of the forests in the
will have on the climate and
rainfall in Montana will certainly be
marked. The heavy snowfall in the
mountains during the winter being pro-
tected by heavy forests has melted gradu-
ally, heretofore, during the summer, and
no perceptible change has been noticed IN
the rising Of the turbulent mountain
streams, after the few first hot days in
early summer when all the unprotected
>~'beautiful' was melted. The steady de
~struction Of these forests by the hand OF
man and by the elements which have been
going on for wears, has changed this ma
t~erially, as was proven last spring, or rath-
er during the summer, when Sun river
overfioved its banks and nearly carried
away the village bearing its name. The
Missouri, also, was higher than ever
known before. These floods hereafter
will not be unusual, but will come every
spring, when the sun is hot enough to
melt this large area of unprotected snow
in the mountains. When quickly follow
ed by a heavy or protracted rain, the dam
age to all unprotected points along these
mountain streams will be great.

il he has pluck, patience, and ordinary

known throughout the Territory and IS
Great Falls tribune. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1885-1890, 1885-08-22

recognized as the pioneer of the horse
industry in Montana. 1t was from the
time he settled in the Sun river valley
with property valued at So, 100, the accu-
mutation of five years Of toll, that his sue
cess was phenomenal, which cannot justly
be attributed to luck, but was the out
growth of careful and systematic iudg-
ment, knowing when to invest and when
to sell, coupled with ~unboundea faith in
the future Of Montana. His first invest
ment after locating his ranch, was the
purchase of two mares, which were the
nucleus of his present large band OF thor
oughbred and blooded horses. One of
his investments, which at the time caused
his neiglibors to laugh, was the purchase
of a mare and colt from Billy Childs, for
which he paid $500. That mare and colt
was one of Mr.. Vaushn's best invest
| ments, as was afterward proved. Her de-
scendants are now valued we'll up in the
thousands, while the colt which was at
her side, is none other than tie stallion
"Great WESTERN" for which he hasrefused
numerous offers of 81 900.
Eight years ago he seen a chance to
| purchase a small band OF stock cattle at a
bargain, not having the money required
he borrowed the amount, $4,000, paying
ii per cent. a month for the loan. At
| this time he had three industries on bis
hands-that Of horse raising, cattle rails
ing and r~anching. He kept three separ-
| ate accounts on his books, making each
industry self-supporting, while the IN
| crease was a net profit. That band OF cat
| tie proved to be another paying invest
| ment, as this summer he sold his brand,
getting therefor $4,000, clearing above
all expenses about $4,000 on an invest
ment OF $1,000 eight years ago. He has
also just effected d sale Of brood mares to
the Willard Cattle company, for which
he received something over s'10,C0o which
it is safe to say, was all clear profit. Be
sides this sale he still has 3 large band of
blooded and thoroughbred, all of which
accrued from the profits resulting from
the purchase of the two mares sixteen
years ago.
Hereafter it is Mr.. Vaughn's intention
to centine himself to the raising of thor
oughbred stock, and for this purpose will
purchase q number Of registered thor
oughbred cows and bulls, and will also
indulge his fancy in p few more fine
horses, although his stable now contains
some of the best animals in the Territory,
among which may be named "Prospect,s
q magnificent dark bay, standing sixteen
hands high and weighing 1900 pounds,
sired by Blood Chief; he by Blood's Black
Hawk, dam Susan Jones (pacerl by Ash
