PROF. ANDERSON HONORED

ment asking for one of its men. An
drew p. Anderson. instructor in civil
engineering and good roads expert,
is wanted by the good roads depart
Nent of the department of agricul-
ture, in washington. d. c. Prof.
Anderson is a graduate of Washing
ton State College, having received his
diploma five years ago. He is now

gineering, being an assistant of Pro-
fessor 0. L. Waller.
Since he has let the college he has

to Nhe college to accept the position
which he now holds The department
with which he formerly worked wants
him again and has offered him a
nosition with a salary equivalent to
$4,000 per year. He will probably
accept it. While it is source of re-
eret to lose Professor Anderson, from
Pullman and from the college, 1t is
source of pride that the federal gov

College graduates SO highly that
many of them are sought and given
good positions at good salaries. Pro-
fessor Anderson recently wrote an
article on road building for the Her
aid which was highly mplimented

PHIL COX RAISES CORN
whitman County's Sheep King Max
ing Success of Corn Growing
Near Hay

Phil w. Cox, the sheep king" of
western Whitman county, whose big
farm lies near Hay Station, on the
U, K. q ~, was a delegate to the
state convention of the Farmers I'm
ion held here this week. Mr.. Cox is
one of the most successful farmers
of Whitman county In addition to
a large flock of sheep, which he is
now keeping on the ranges in Mon
tana, ne is extensively engaged in
wheat farming and stock raising.
He raises pure tired percheron horses
and is said to have the finest herd
of this breed in the state. He raises
hogs and feeds them corn, grown on
land that a decade ago was thought
to be fit only for early sheep pasture.
Mr.. Cox has been raising corn on
a large scale ana has found it to be
a profitable crop This year he has
450 acres and reports the best stand
he has ever had at this time of the
N"' iIN NNt1ti'l llAo DtCl ! dJiltt
cool for com early in the season, but
the recent heavy rains, followed by
warm weather, has given it a great
start and Mr.. Cox regards the outlook
for corn crop as bright. He said
I'VE have d better prospect now than
they have in Missouri. My corn
beats any corn | saw in Missouri on
my recent visit to that state. In
Missouri and portions OF Kansas
where they list their corn, the fur
rows made by the lister were level
full Of water and thousands of acres
of corn was drowned out"
Professor w. T. Mcdonald, head of
the department of animal husbandry,
in Washington State College, plans TO
take his class to Mr.. CoX's ranch for
the purpose of inspecting his farm
and livestock. The class had planned
to so last Saturday, but Mr.. Cox was
not at home and he invited them to
postpone the visit until next Satur-
day.

THE GROVE Is MIR. LYLE'S
Error Made in Herald Last Week in
Stating Picnic Grounds Owned
BY Grange

The Herald was IN error last week
when it stated that the grounds
where the annual grange picnic and
livestock show will he held are owned
by the grange. The lan1 is owned
by Robert Lyle. The buildings are
owned by the grange, but Alr. Lyle
has never even given a lease on the
ground. He permits the grange to
have the use of the grounds but re-
tains full control of the land and tne
trees. The grange owns the stock
sheds and other buildings
Mr.. Lyle has given the grange the
use of his grounds for any years
and is glad to have the picnics held
there. Owing 10 the fact that a few
rowdies nave tried to cause trouble
on previous occasions Mr.. Lyle wish
es to retain the ownership of the
grounds SO that lie can have control
1t has been the practice OF few to
go to the grove before the opening
of tie picnic, when they think no
one is really in charge, and mako dis
turbances. and Mr. Lyle will not per-
NIT this. A deputy sheriff will be
on the grounds from the day before
the picnic opens until it closes and
the best of order will be maintained
this year.

THIEVES BREAK INTO A
STORE AND STEAL

Burglars broke into the Pioneer Mcr-
camille Co.'s store on Wednesday night
and stole miscellaneous lot of articles
Entrance was effected by breaking glass
out of window on the south side of the
store, near the alley, and then raising
the window.
1t is thought from the articles taken,
which consisted mostly of clothing, that
two men were engaged in the job Quite
a number of articles of clothing were
taken, one of the robbers changing clothes
while in the store, his old clothes being
placed in the stove and a fire started,
which partially consumed them. The
other man changed clothes in the railroad
yards, where his old clothes were found
by Marshal Parent.
A bottle of ink was spilled upon the
floor in Mr.. Skyles' Office, and from the
fresh appearance of the ink spots it is
thought that the burglary was committed
in the morning, probably just before day
light. The men went through the casl
register, but it only contained few pen
MES. They ransacked the store, paving
over many things, helping themselves tc
whatever suited their fancy.

AGENTS FOR SOLDIERS.

The Kalispell land Office is in receipt
of communication from the Hon.
James w. Witten, superintendent of
opening and sale of Indian reservations,
dated June IA, 1909, as follows:
~ am being frequently asked the quail
itications required of person who files
an application for registration as agent
for former soldier, and, in reply, have
answered that any person, married or
single, male or female, who is of requisite
age to act as agent for another in an
ordinary business transaction will be
permitted to file application for soldiers,
under duly executed powers OF attorney
but no person can act as agent for more
than one soldier at any one registration
point. The same agent may register for
the same or different soldiers for each OF
the three reservations; but separate
power of attorney is required for each
reservation"

technic display on the lake the japanese
will present each lady and each child
present with Japanese lantern, and
some suitable memento of the occasion
will also be handed to each gentleman.
The committee has received word that
the fireworks for the occasion have been
shipped, and include fireworks for both
day and night use. In the shipment also
is 800 OF the japanese lanterns. It can
safely be said that the pyrotechnic display
on Whitefsh lake on the 5th will eclipse
anything of similar nature ever seen in
the county.

TOWNSHIP co. TO PLAT
FIYE=ACRE TRACTS

The Whitefish Townsite Co. is making
preparations to plat 100 acres of land
north of town into five-acre tracts, which
will at once be placed upon the market.
H. G. Wegner, local agent for the COM
pany, received word this week to proceed
at once to have tie work done, and has
already made arrangements with sur
veyor to plat the land.
The land which is to be plated adjoins
the townsite on the north, and is level
tract, part of which is meadow land, but
most of which is covered with lodgepole
pine timber. 1t is all good land, how
ever, and will undoubtedly meet with a
ready sale.
There has been considerable demand
during the past few months for small
tracts of land near town, and it is to meet
this demand that the company has de-
cided to lay out five-acre tracts. 1t is
not known as yet just what price the
tracts will be held at, but it will probably
be somewhere from $75 to 500 per acre.
There is an excellent opportunity Of
fered in the vicinity OF Whitefish for op-
erations in poultry raising and gardening
upon small tracts of land, on account of
the good market here, and such places
are bound to thrive If properly managed.

SAYS MEANING HAS BEEN
MISCONSTRUED

The land office at Kalispell has received
the following letter from the department
of the interior, which may be of interest
to owners of mining claims:
The attention of the department has
been called to the last clause of paragraph
Al OF the mining regulations, approved
March 30, 1909, which provides as fol-
lows:
"The vein or lode must be fully de-
scribed, the description to include a
statement as to the kind and character of
mineral, the extent thereof, whether ore
has been extracted and OF what amount
and value and such other facts as will
support the applicants allegation that
the claim contains a valuable mineral
deposit. -
1t seems that the expression, ''the eN-
tent thereof is being construed as mean
ing that the applicant must atfirmatively
show by proof of exploration that the
fClu CA1stS Ill law tliAotSitouo eitS NAioiO
length of the claim.
This construction of the paragraph is
erroneous. By the words quoted it was
intended to require the claimant to show
the existence OF vein in such workings
as he relied on to establish discovery.
By the extent of the vein was meant its
size and quality as disclosed. That being
done, the presumption exists that the
vein extends on its strike throughout
the whole length of the claim as located.
The sole purpose OF that part of par
agraph IL quoted was to enable the land
department to know, so far as applicant
can reasonably show, the definite facts
upon which the right to patent is predi-
Gated so as to determine whether val
liable mineral deposit exists in the land
claimed.

A BOOSTER

Mr.. and Mrs. G. E. Davis of Whitefish
were in Kalispell Saturday. Mr.. Davis
is manager of the Whitefish lake resort
and captain of the fleet, besides being an
expert engineer and electrician. He has
taken a contract from the Great North
ern to clear certain portions of the right
of-way around the lake so the view of the
mountains may be clear to passengers as
they are whirled along in the daylight
trains. Mr.. Davis is we'll pleased with
the outl ok for lake business this summer
and expects his cabins and camping
places will soon fill up. He said there
was nearly hundred gasoline launches
now in commission and more building.
The harbor is now ON the river front and
right in town.-Kalispell Bee.
