Big crops IN FERGUS
Yield OF Grain Shown By Returns
Sent In To This City By Farmers Of
Inland Empire Some to Hear From.

A few weeks ago, at the request
Of business men of Lewistown, Clerk
of the Court John B. Ritch sent out
large number of letters to ranchers
OF Fergus county, requesting that
they send in report Of their crop
yield for the present year. 1t was
explained that this matter has been
taken up solely for the purpose Of
securing reliable advertising matter
to be used for the purpose of in
ducing new settlers to come to this
county. Blanks were sent out along
with the letters and, up to this morn
ing ,over thirty replies have been re-
celved and Others are coming in
daily
A great many crops have not yet
been threshed and that is retarding
somewhat the gathering of the de.
sired data.
The returns, received thus far, are
most encouraging and indicate that
the claims of the people of Fergus
county that this is the banner grain
growing section of the Northwest are
well founded. The returns show our
supremacy not only as a grain grow
ing county but some phenominal
yields Of hay and potatoes are also
indicated.
The Democrat publishes herewith
as many Of the returns as space will
permit. Another batch will be pub
lished next week and this course con-
tinued until all Of the returns have
been given the public. This done, a
re-capitulation will be made and the
AVERAGE yields arrived at.
Some of the returns received thus
far are as follows:
George H. Day, Lewistown-Oats,
1S acres, 1,700 bushels; average per
acre, "a 40 bushels. Timothy hay,
90 acres, 225 tons; average per acre,
2 IL tons. Potatoes, three-fourths
acre, $50 bushels; average 200 bushels.
E. S. Smith, Lewistown-Wheat,
80 acres, 1,150 bushels; average, SO IL
bushels per acre. Oats, 54 acres, g.
800 bushels; average, 20 1927 bushels.
Alfalfa, 8 acres, "a tons; average, 3
tons. Timotll--. 30 acres, 80 tons;
AVERAGE. 2 tons.
Felix McGinn, Lewistown-Whea
80 acres, 1880 bushels; average, 46
bushels. Oats, s. acres. 1,43S bushels;
average, Al bushels Can Minnesota

SERIOUS SHORTAGE
OF Freight CARS
THE TRANSPORTATION CON.
DITIONS THIS WINTER
WORSE THAN LAST.

Washington, Nov. o.-According to
figures just compiled by the depart
ment of commerce and labor car
shortage in Wyoming, Idaho, Mon
tana, Washington and Oregon is
more serious than it was year ago.
In substance the increase in the num-
Der of cars handled for the year 1907
up to date is slightly more than 8
per cent, while the demand for cars,
increased in the same period from
10 to 20 per cent.
Reports from IS car service as
sociations for September show g.
O2,430 cars handled, compared with
2784,923 in September, 1906. For the
nine months of the year 1907 the
number of cars handled was 2O,588,-
GAS, which is an increase of about 8
per cent.
The department says officially: "In
the west the shortage of cars is said
to restrict the movement of coal,
while in the northwest grain ship
pers find it difficult to obtain the
necessary car supply, with the result
that some elevators and warehouses
are compelled to close down for the
time being. An abnormal accumula-
ton of freight at the important
traffic centers of Buffalo and Pitts
uurg is also ascribed to the inability
of the railroads to handle with

STUB TRAINS ARE
Done AWAY With
RAILWAY COMMISSION PER.
MITS N. p. TO DISCONTINUE
TRAINS.

Unless some arrangements ca.l be
made whereby the people of Lewis
town can get the local Montana rail
road train to run through to Helena,
it will be up to the travellers coming
to and leavinp Lewistown and other
points along the local road to bunk
with Billy Kee at Lombard as per
the custom before Nos. 2 and 8 were
rut on. This is the result of the
conference held in Helena last Sat-
urday. The following dispatch from
Helena to the Democrat gives the
result of the conference:
AS result of the hearing here to-
day before the state railroad commits
sion of protests against the taking OFT
of local trains by the Northern Pa
cific, the commission made an order,
allowing the company to take off
for 80 days, beginning TOMORROW,
trains Nos. and 8, between Helena
and Livingston; Nos. II and 18, be-
tween Butte and Logan, and Nos. 7
and between Missoula and Spokane.
The commission did not arrive at
its conclusions until after two ses-
sions, the final one not adjourning
until after night
The hearing was held in the hall
of the house of representatives There
was a good delegation present from
the Helena Commercial club, and
several from the outside. E. c. Day

|BARNES-kING ALL right
Faith OF Local Men Shown in Much MaIiQned
ProperD--Enormous Ore Reserves Of
Good Ore to Draw From.

Owing to shortage in the supply
OF cyanide, the Barnes King mill at
Kendall had to suspend operations
for few days last week A carladi
of cyanide, ordered through local
hardware store, got lost in transit
and it required several days of work
to get it located and started this way
again. The cyanide got in a couple
OF days ago and the big gold pro-
ducer has been started up again.
During the short shut down, all
Of the men wer put to work cleaning
up and making repairs about the mill.
At the same time, the work of sink
ing on the main working shaft to tap
some big bodies Of ore which have
been located by means of diamond
drill was begun
In an interview given to the Butte
Evening News, Gray Richardson,
who spent several weeks in this city,
had the following to say OF the
Barnes King:
Many miners who have worked in
the Barnes King for years are gen
orally agreed that while the mine is
not worth $2,OOOOOO it is nevcrthe-
less valuable property and will con
tinue to pay dividends for years to
come.
This belief is shared By Lewis
town people as well as those Of Ken
dali, and when following on the
exposure Of the methods Of the
Barnes King syndicate and the
Barnes King Development company,
the stock dropped to 81, a large num-
Der OF Fergus county men began
quietly to gather it in.
lhis fact has been known for some
time. but is further corroboratcd by
u. w. Richardson, the well known
newspaper man who has just return
ed tro ma trip to Fergus county.
He talked with the Barnes King
miners and with business men and
found that while all conceded that
SA,0OO,OOO was much too high a val
uatlon, the mine was so we'll thought
of that $3.50 share was not con-
sidered too high price to pay for
the stock. Large bodies Of ore
are in sight and men familiar with
the ground declare that these will
pay good profit.

ldent Bright, of the Lewistown Elec-
