The Great Falls Tribune Of Sunday
had a big two page write-up of the
Sun River country and the article
was illustrated with views of ranch
scenes taken out on that part of the
country One picture which was
labeled "a ranch scene on Green
aelds Bench" had a strangely fa-
couple OF distinguished looking
gentlemen sitting in a spring wagon
out in the middle of a wheat field.
The grain reached as high as the
horses backs and the picture certain
ly indicated grand piece Of grain.
A little closer inspection, however
showed that the two gentlemen sitting
IN the rig were Dave Hilger and Pat
Seaman and that instead of being
taken on "Greenheld's Bench" it wa.
saken on what is known as the Long
S5oTfe- Hilger ranch, just few mile:

no other points to distinguish thu

up the error in the Tribune's labe
