FROM KANSAS

James w. White returned Tues
day from a three weeks visit to
his old home in the eastern part
Of Kansas He says the state has
improved wonderfully since he
left there twenty-one years ago.
Good land there is worth 500 per
acre. The winter wheat crop is
good and harvest has begun, wheat
will average 25 bushels to the
acre.
1t was rainy and muddy during
the time he was there which pre-
vents the blowing Of corn and as a
result the weeds and grass are do
ing some damage, but the corn
crop and alfalfa are going to be
fairly good.
Many of the farmers buy west.
ern cattle and feed their corn
which pays better than shipping
il to market.
Mr.. White says the Kansas far
mers have plenty Of money and
there 10 a bank in almost every
little town.
Some of the young men are
moving west and Colorado is we'll

White hopes some Of them will

WELL-KNOWN PAIR
FOOLS FRIENDS
Mr.. AND MRS. WILLIAM lUTZ,
MARRIED A WEEK AGO, KEEP
THE AFFAIR oeCRET.

Yesterday William r. LutZ. clerk in
the MissouIa hotel was the recipient
Of hearty congratulations from his
friends. and during the day he also
came in for good calling down from
the same friends for keeping the good
news quiet for SO long. The cause of
it all was the sudden release Of the
news that on Monday last he was
married to Miss Myrtle Il. Bryant of
Butte a fact which has been kept
studiously quiet by the select few who
attended the wedding. 1t has long
been known that Mr.. LutZ was CON
templatng the step. and the friends of
Miss Bryant. who has been connected
with Symnn's dry goods store in Butte
for several years, admitted it. but not
even the parents Of the young lady
knew of the wedding until yesterday.
II seems that both Mr.. LutZ and his
bride have a disliking for old shoes
and similar artillery. and so To avoid
it all they were married quietly on
August > at the Missouia hotel. Rev.
J. w. TAFT of this city performing the
ceremony. The couple were attended
by Mr. and Mrs. James Walsh and
no one else was given even an inkling
of the affair until yesterday, when.
after having visited for week with
friends in the state. Mr.. and Mrs. LutZ
returned to Missoula and announced
the fact that they had been married.
They were both elated over the way
they had fooled their friends. but
when the news was let out yesterday
their friends made up for the time
they had lost and showered congratu-
Iations and other things upon the
couple Mr.. and Mrs. LutZ will make
their home in Missoula. Mr.. Lutz ex-
pecting to continue with his duties at
the hotel.

The primary workers in this
great movement are the loggers.
The Bonners Ferry Lumber Co
have from 900 to 1000 men in the
woods this winter and it is for these
to supply the 100000 feet of
lumber that will be needed to keep
the mill in operation next season.
There are camps strung along the
Kootenai river and its tributaries
from here to Gateway, B. C, and
and there are camps strung along
the K. V. Ry from here to Port
Hill, Idaho. The latter will require
the operation of four miles of log
ging railway to connect with the
