The Helena independent. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1891-07-08

The other day The INDEPENDENT pub
lished an item to the effect that Georgia
this year would ship 1900 cars
of watermelons. An ingenious lover
of figures has been making some
calculations based on that state
ment, and some of his deductions are quite
interesting. He says hat if these melons
were placed end to end they would reach
from Helena to st. Pau and halfway back
again. Pile them on top of each other Il
the result would be a tower so high that
the Eiffel could not be seen from the top.
The alter in these $4,000 cars of Georgia
melons would be sufficient to launch
eighteen battle ships twice as large as the
cruiser Vesuvius. If a colored brother
should start to demolish them, and do
nothing else during each twenty-four hours,
in 40s years he would only have succeeded
in lessening the crop one-third. The rinds
of these MELONS. fattened out. would
cover nearly the entire surface of Africa.
If each of these 10000 cars of melons was
cut into twelve pieces, and the pieces were
sold at 10 cents each, it would amount to
how much?

LOCAL ETCHINGS.

One of the places about the city in which
every inhabitant takes pride, Ia Mount
Helena. II is the only ounta easy Of
access on which trees OF any size grow, and
for that reason is a favorite resort for all
classes Of people. While u majority Of the
visitors appreciate the beauties Of the spot,
and do no, mar or destroy them, quite n
number Of the more t~houghtless or vicious
minded delight in starting fires. This prac-
tioe has been kept up 80 long that many of
the most beautiful trees and a great deal of
the shrubbary have been destroyed. Sow
eral times fires have been started and as
sumed such proportions that people living
in the vicinity have been compelled to go
up on the mountain and extinguish them III
order to prevent great destruction. Dur
ing the past two weeks the evil has assumed
such large proportions that a committee
has been organized. which will endeavor to
stop the wanton destruction of the trees
and shrubbery.
Those who start these fires do not know
that they are violating a state law; but such
is the case, and the penalty is a serious one.
Section 22l, revised statutes of Montana,
covers the ground in this wise:
"Any person who shall carelessly set fire
to any timber, woodland or grass, except
for useful or necessary purposes or who
shall at any time make campfire. or shall
light any fire for any purpose whatever,
without taking sufficient steps to secure the
same from spreading from the immediate
locality where the same may be used, or
shall fail i'll any instance to put out or ex-
tinguish said fire before leaving or nban-
doning the same, shall be deemed guilty of
a felony, and upon conviction thereof, shall
be fined in any sum not. exceeding $1,000,
o. imprisonment in the state prison not
less than one nor more than three years, or
both such fine and imprisonment, and shall
liable for all damages resulting from such
The gentlemen who have taken up the
will make a determined effort to
preserve the beauties of Mount Helena. and
to do so will see that the above law is
