the last named county were had the
hrst convictions for cattle stealing
ever known in that county. The in
creased value of horses has created an
epidemic of horse stealing, which had
sort of died out after the vigilante cam
paign of 1884 in the Musselshell coun-
try, when there was wholesale hang
ing of the rustling fraternity. We have
more inspectors on the force than ever
before and we hope to get hold of the
more notorious of this class of crimi-
nails and get them out of reach of temp
tation.
During 1901 the net output of beef
was Isl, 900 head, most of which were
to eastern markets, but there were
about 1000 head shipped to Seattle
There were 5,S+5 head of strays recov-
cred by the inspectors, $3.50 being
paid for direct to owners, while the re-
naming 1891 went to owners through
this association. The Canadian stock
men have adopted a system of inspec-
ton patterned after ours, and last sea-
son made returns to us for thirty-two
head of Montana strays marketed over
the line.
'lnspection reports of horse ship
ments show a total of "a, 900 head taken
out of Montana during 1901. probably
the heaviest shipment of horses in the
history of the state. The inspectors
recovered tifty-one head of stray horses,
returns being made to the respective
owners for same.
''ln accordance with law, the list of
unclaimed strays will be published
during the month of May in some news
papers at Helena and Billings, and

called for on the wool and the owner
demanded the sacks in good condition.
Wiley said it was in accordance with
methods in Benton, Billings and Great

Build Warehouse at Chicago.
Mr.. Skinner then stated that Man
ager Leonard; of the Chicago Union
Stockyards, desired to propose to wool
growers of Montana that they build a
warehouse at Chicago for storing their
wool. The claim of lack of buyers
would be obviated there. They could
hire good man for $4,000 or S1O,O
per year and save the commission of
one cent per pound charged in Boston.
This would mean a saving of $3.50, 900
to Billings wool growers and about
S2O, to those who ship from Miles
City. The matter was referred to a
committee to confer with Mr.. Leonard
and report to the executive committee.
Regarding the investigation of the kill
ing of the Selway. sleep, the matter
was left about where it now stands,
and the meeting was adjourned.

If the amount of brick which will be
manufactured at the Alexander yard
within the next month or so is any in
dication of the volume of building that
will be done this season Forsyth will
have many additional and substantial
structures before many months. A
force of eight men under the supervis-
ion of Frank James, an experienced
brick maker, were put to work Mon
day and already some 10000 machine
brick have been pressed. It is ex-
pected to turn out 600, 600 this session
and the first kiln which will contain
$50, 600, will be burnt in few weeks.
The Alexander yard is one of the best
equipped and most modern in eastern
Montana and the quality of brick that
is to be made will be far superior to
any yet manufactured in this part of
the state.
A rather disastrous wreck occurred
Monday, when passenger train No. II,
east bound, in charge of Conductor
Mack and being hauled by Engineer
Waddingham, went through a culvert
between Fallon and Terry. The fore
part of the engine went safely over,
but the tender fell through drawing
the engine back, piling up the mail
car and smoker, and derailing several
others. Before anything could be done
the mail car was mass of flames and
very little, if any, of the mail therein
could be saved. No one was injured
other than the postal clerk, who sus-
tanned a slight scalp wound. En-
gineer Waddingham remained at his
his post, and strange to say, came out
without scratch. The cause of the
disaster was due to the timbers of the
culvert being burned.

Land Leasing bill.
David Frat moved that a committee
OF five be appointed to draft resolu-
ton to amend the land leasing bill
now before congress. The committee
appointed was Frat, Strevell, James
Hunter, Kendrick and Comstock.
On this motion Judge Strevell said
the motion to ''amend the bill" would
indicate that the association was in
favor OF the leasing of public lands in
some form. He wanted to know if the
association was in favor of the leasing
at all. He wished to know the sense
OF the association on the subject so
that the committee would know how to
report. 1t Was decided that the whole
intent of the resolution was to simply
have the committee investigate the bill
and report their findings to the con-
vention.
Doctor Knowles Talks
Doctor Knowles was called on. He
said about all he had to say about the
condition of cattle was embodied in his
annual report. The thing of most in
terest now is black.eg; vaccination had
become common now and about two
hundred calves were vaccinated YEAR
ly. There had been some cattle af-
fected with scab during the several
past, but few North Montana cattle
men were dipping for scab. 1t was an
easy thing to cure with proper treat
ment.
Z. F. Martin, representing the Ma
tional Livestock association was given
chance to speak. He said that Hon.
orable Jerry Simpson would voice his
sentiments in the afternoon. Under
the head of general business David
Frat introduced his resolution to
change the place of meeting from Miles
City to Helena.
Judge Strevell moved to amend by
referring to committee, which motion
was lost. 1t was finally decided TO
take the matter up after the conclusion
of the speech of the Honorable Jerry
Simpson. The speech was to- be de-
livered in the court house and adjourn
ment would be made TO Leighton hall.
There being no further business, a
a recess was taken till $50 to recon-
vene at the court house.
Crowd to Hear simpson.
a great crowd gathered at the court
house to hear Mr.. Simpson. The pub
lie schools adjourned for the afternoon
in order to give teachers and older
people chance to hear him. His
talk was very interesting.
AT $50 the cattlemen again met in
Leighton hall, The reading of resolu-
tions was continued and one indorsing

stock exhibit at Saint Louis was
adopted.
The National Livestock association
resolution in favor of classified CEN

Martin was carried.
Conrad Kohrs opposed it and didn't
know what good it would be. Jerry
Simpson spoke for it and it was
carried.

Hardwick Took the Game.

Hardwick and Hyde Park baseball
clubs met on the School Campus here
last Saturday. Hardwick redeemed
itself and took the game, it being the
first game the home team had lost
this year. There was a good attend
ance and everybody expected to see
a good game-which it was up to the
seventh inning. At that time Catcher
Jackson of the home team hurt his
hand and then the game went to
pieces. Stanton and Sullivan were
the battery for Hardwick and did
good work; in fact, Hardwick was in
good trim all around and DLaKd
ball all through the game, making
but few errors and running up score
of 10 to 7. Hyde Park had Foss and
Jackson for battery in the first Of the
game and after Jackson's injury
Cheney and Davis took their place
for an inning or two. Foss pitched
great ball and had not the accident
occurred possibly the game would
have resulted differently. Hyde Park
played fairly well, but it was an off
day for them. They were shut out
in the first six innings, while Hard
wick made one score in the first, two
in the second and two in the sixth,
receiving ciphers in the third, fourth,
fifth and seventh innings. In the
eighth and ninth they added five and
nine scores. Hyde Parks best work
was in the seventh inning, when they
made four scores off of clean hits.
They added one more in the eighth
and two in the ninth. The Hardwick
crew were a gentlemanIy lot of fellows
and cheerfully took all the hooting
and yelling of the home rooters,
which we regret to say was put on
in great doses. This may be one way
to play ball, but gentlemanly conduct
invariably produces better results,
even on a ball ground. The score by
innings was:

Potatoes Are BIiqhting.

The late blight or trust" has ap-
peared on early potatoes at the YER
mont experiment station, Burling-
ton. This date, July 10, is the ear
lest record of it's appearance there
for the past thirteen years during
which time it has been matter Ofcriti-
ical studyby the station officers. They
consider that the changes favor even
more serious development of the
disease than last year-and possibly,
if weather favors, the worst scourge
of the last decade. The reasons for
this fear are threefold: First, this
remarkably early beginning of the
blight--which means that whatever
the weather conditions it will spread
insidiously from this time on; second,
the large amount of rot occurring
last autumn means that the germs
of the disease, which are carried in
the seed potatoes, are present in
most fields; third, the weather condi-
tions so far this season have pre-
pared the crop for serious blighting
since planting was delayed unusually
late and the growth made by the
plants recently has been very rank.
The rapid spread of blight depends
upon weather conditions. If the rest
of the season should be continuously
dry there might be little trouble from
it. The chances are, however, that
there will be an unusual develop
ment of the disease.
Prices promise to be high again
this autumn and it is recommended
by the Experiment station officers
that spraying with bordeaux mix
ture, to preserve the plants from
blight, be made earlier and more
thoroughly than usual. Thier speci-
fic recommendations are as follows
Spray early potatoes as soon as
possible now and later ones about
the first of August. Probably it will
be profitable in either case to spray
a second time about two weeks after
the first application is made. Thor
ough spraying requires from two to
four barrels of the mixture to the
acre. Most people do not use enough.
There is no danger of injuring the
vines from an overdose providing the
mixture is property made.
The mixture consists of l pound OF
stone lime, IL pounds blue vitirol,
"copper" sulphate), 10 gallons OF
water. "a lbs. lime, 6 lbs. vitrol,
barrel water). Stake the lime and dis.
solve the vitriol in separate vessels
and mix just before using. Add paris
green, y Id. to the barrel of mixture,
if needed for the bugs.
Remember this is a preventive, not
a cure, and must be applied before
the disease gains Roadway, Also re-
member to spray thoroughly if at all.
Careless spraying is little better than
none.

A LIVELY RUNAWAY.

Those who witnessed the run away
on Congress street near the Randall
last Thursday afternoon, agree that
the participants narrowly escaped
fatal results. Judge Pearl of John
son and Judge White of Hyde Park
had been transacting business in
town and after dinner at the Rau-
dali, were about to start from Smith
& Lunt's livery barn for home and
Judge White had stepped up onto the
step to adjust the laprobe and was
leaning over into the wagon, when
Mr.. Pearl noticed that the nose strap
to the bride was not fastened in the
usual way and in order to properly
adjust it, removed the bridal.
at this point the horse plunged for
ward and dragged Mr.. Pearlf from the
barn, where he was thrown down,
both wheels passing over his lower
limbs. After the animal had gone a
few rods he turned completely around
leaving Judge White badly mixed up
in the top part of the covered buggy,
The horse then ran to the yard Of
VI. NJ. OWerb, SpllHJerluB UTee dl
the enterance to the driveway and
freeing himself from the wagon. He
then ran to the residence of W. s.
Cheney on Main street where he was
stopped by Mr.. Cheney.

gentleman was seriously injured, but
Friday it developed thatJudge Pear
had sustained fracture of one of the
bones of the right ankle and painful
injuries to the surface of both limbs
one of which is now in a plaster cast
He will be laid up for some time
