Field Agent Odin G. Clay of the
Great Northern railroad was in Kal-
ispell yesterday from st. Paul, to see
David r. McGinnis about plans in
connection with the extension of the
stockyards of the line at Galata,
Mont. The present yards cover
nearly two acres with five stock
chutes, but the arrangements effected
by Mr.. Clay with Mr.. McGinnis will
enable the company to add nearly
five acres to the yards, which is re-
quired by the company by the rap
idly increasing cattle and sheep ship
ments from the Sweetgrass hills and
the Marias, which, on account of the
living water in Willow creek must
all be handled from Galata. Besides
the contemplated extension Nof the
yards, plans are under consideration
for a new depot on the north side
of the four sidetracks that are used
for shifting cars in the Galata yards
The additional space secured by the
company will give ai''rln SPACE for
the erection of dipping tanks and
shearing sheds. which will be erected
by private parties.

four great tires of the desert automo-
bile, when Debated. give several times
the area Of the cameps feet, making
possible a proportionate increase in the
weight to be carried.
This desert machine, as it will appear
when completed for the use Of French
explorers and engineers, will be a huge
affair of tremendous power, capable
of three separate and distinct methods
of autO-lOcomotiOn. In addition to the
ordinary action of the motor upon the
driYing-wheels, there is means Of
throwing the power onto another
clutch, operating directly upon a pro-
peller at the stern. The machine, as
we have said, is water-tight and the
front wheels differ from the ordinary
in that the spokes are replaced by
disks of aluminium. AS a result, they
not only serve to steer the automobile
when on land, but provide an effective
rudder while afloat. There is, in addi-

1t is a thing of beauty, too, designed

But the auto-sleigh is by no means

is not destined to be crowned with the
glory of the discovery of the north

The estimates on condition of small

Mr. Sage and show that farmers have
saved far greater portion of the small
grain than it was thought would be
possible two weeks ago.
MIR. Sage said: Il am more than
gratitied ut the reports and must con-
fess that they exceed my fondcst expec-
tations. The reports two and three
weeks ago and futher back when the
small grain was being deluged with
rain and the fields devastated by winds
Were warranted by conditions and there
is but one explanation for the good re-
