TH[|R PILGRIMAGE

MISSOULA, Mont, May 19.-Dur-
Der of the Indians from the Flat
head reservation have been in the
city buying supplies in readiness for
their annual pilgrimage into the foot
hills surrounding the Bitter Root
valley for the purpose of gathering
the roots of the bitter root, Mon
tana's state flower, for medicinal and
gastromical purposes. Yesterday
fully 100 members of the allied tribes
were in the city and they came in all
manner of vehicles from dilapidated
wagons to fine top -buggies. some of
the poorer members of the tribe max
ing the journey on foot.
The bitter roots are gathered in
large quantities and preserved
throughout the year with jealous care
by the Flatheads. They are used for
medicine as we'll as food and until
the time the flower is in blossom and
the seed pods begin forming, they
are highly priced. The roots are pull
verified and made into a paste and
also dried and packed away for future
use.
A conservative estimate places the
number of Indians who will visit the
Bitter Root valley during the flower
ing season of the bitter root at at
least 800. During this time the
squaws will do the work, the time of
the bucks being consumed in hunt
