OF the millions Of buffalo which, not
MANY years ago, roamed over the
country west of the Missouri river, the
only herd of n importance, as 10
numbers, Is in the possession or James
Philip of. Fort Pierre. Mr.. Philip, VINO
is known all over the Western range
country as .'Scotty," became the owner
of the herd about a year ago, when II
was DISPOSED of in the settlement or
the estate of Fred Dupree, an old
French trapper.
About twenty-five years & Dupree
saw that the days of the bufalo were
and took it upon himself 10
perpetuate the species, believing lhaS
the best place to do this was In the
country where they were natives. In
f~urtherance of this project ne organ
iyed a band of Indians and mixed
Hoods. which, headed by himself, went
M into the Little Missouri river coun-
trv. where a few small herds OF buffalo
were vet known to roam. Their special
u ission was the capture OF enough
calves TO start the herd, but 1t was a
difficult task. AMI only half a dozen
were captured. From these was start
eS the herd. which now comprises
about fifty full-blood buffalo, besides
as many more lalf-breeds.
AS long as Dupree lived these AMI
mails were allowed to run practlcally
wild on the Sheyenne river, the only
attention paid to them being 10 see
that they did not work OH the range
. After his death non of the numerous
heirs cared to take the herd as a part
of the share of the estate, n the en-
tire herd was sold, "Scotty" Phllp De-
ing the purchaser.
