bQOTHtQ MURDERED
Brother Of E. E. Lightfoot Dies
in Washington Under Myster-
ious Circumstances.

f. f, Lightfoot returned last Fri
day evening from Spokane Falls
Washington, where lie buried a
brother OF his who died there under
very mysterious circumstances. It
had been first reported that he had
been accidently killed, but later
developments pointed very strongly
to foul play. The authorities at
that place are now convinced that
he met his death at the hands of
some unknown party or parties, his
death having been caused by a
wound on the head inflicted with
some blunt instrument. No motive
for the crime has come to light so
far. The authorities at Spokane
Falls are investigating the case and
MIR. Lightfoot, of this place, is daily
expecting some information from

A5bh|DQt RETURNS
Attends National Woolgrowers'
Convention at Ogden. Utah.
Last Week.

JOS. l.. Asblidge, the we'll known
Willow Creek sheepman, commits
sioner OF Fergus county, returned
Tuesday evening from the National
Woolgrower's Convention at Ogden,
Utah, which was held last Thursday,
Friday and Saturday. The con-
vention was very successful one
from every standpoint, about one
thousand sheepmen being in attend
ance. Altho nothing Of very great
Importance came up before the con-
vention, number of matters of
more than passing interest were
acted upon. Among these may be
mentioned the enacting of uniform
bounty and quarantine laws, which
will be brought before the legisla-
lures Of the different states at their
next session.
MIR. Asbridge was especially inter-
ested in the discussion of lin and
leg ulcerations among sheep, an in
fection which is becoming quite
general. Mr.. Asbridge's observa-
tions in connection with this disease
was Of considerable value to the
convention, his conclusions being
acquiesccd in by well known veter-
inarians present. The disease is
quite difficult to handle and in
many cases is fatal. Mr.. Asbridge
is OF the opinion that it is Transmits
ted by infected sheep to others thru
abrassions Of the skin as it usually
appears after sheep have been graz
ing on ground gone over before by
an infected flock. That the disease
is more prevalent in the late fall
and winter is explained by the fact
that the frozen ground and grass is
apt to cause cuts on the lips and
legs Of sheep.
Mr.. Asbridge advises the strict
segregation Of all infected sheen to
prevent as much as possible the
disease from spreading

NO STOCK LOSSES
Range Conditions Quite Serious
But Sheep and Stockmen
Well Prepared.

Up to the present time there have
been no serious losses in sheep and
cattle rcpored here on account
Of the heavy snow and general
bad weather which has prevailed
about two weeks. Sheep and cattle
men in this section were well
prepared for the storm, and,
unless the cold weather continues
very much longer, the losses will be
very light.
In the Flatwillow country practi-
cally all the snow blew off the range
and sheepmen in that section have
nothing to worry over. The con-
ditions in the Bull Mountains, how
ever, are different, the range being
covered with from one to two feet
of snow.
a rumor, which gained circulat-
ion the first of the week, that a
sheep outfit on Half Breed suffered
loss Of eight hundred head, has
been discredited.

James J. Hills prediction made
five years ago that within a period
indicated, residents OF Montana
would observe a greater valuation
in the output of their agricultural
than mineral products, proved to be
the case in 1909. At that time, the
mining industry was in the zenith
of its glory, nor has it fallen in ap-
preciable extent, but the progress
made in agricultural development
has been of the whirlwind order and
stands supreme today. The ap-
parent slump in metallic production
is due rather to lesser price OBJ
tanned for copper, which is directly
traccable to the panic Of 1907 and
from which Europe has not recov-
cred with the alacity displayed by
the United States.
Reliable Estimates.
From the very best obtainable au-
thorties, both local and national,
the Record has secured data show
ing the agricultural production of
Montana which found its way to the
markets of the world to have ''een
valued at $76, 100000. For strictly
home use and seeding purposes, it
is estimated that fully $36, ,OOO, 900
was consumed. The value of the
forest products for the year is es-
timated by both state and govern
officials. The market value of the
coal produced at point of origin was
81, ,5OO,O 900. at T. Of $3.50 a

ton. and that of stone and granite
81 500, 900, making the grand total
production for the state $1S1,247,-
600, or at the rate of $3.50 for every
resident of the state, on the basis
of 400, 900 population.
That these are not rash estimates
or rough guesses is evidenced from
the fact that so far at least as agri-
cultural products are concerned,
they are considerably lower tnan
those published by the Saturday
Evening Post, which places the
farm value of Montana's crop at
$114, ,OOO,O And in this connect
ion, Montana is given one Of the
best advertisements imaginable for
comparison is made with the yield
of every state in the union, and
Montana S showing stands without
peer.
Remarkable Showing.
In other words, 10000 farms in
Montana produced crop yields val
ued at $114, 100000. In Colorado,
the greatest advertised state, 49,
600 farms produced only 500, 900,
in California 125,O0O farms yield
only $329, 100000. In Iowa 244,-
600 farms yielded $611, 900, 900.
Thus, through the entire list, Mon
tana farms are shown to have far
greater yielding capacity. While it
is unquestionably true that Mon
tana farms in many instances are
larger, the fecundity Of its soils has
played great part in achieving the
results shown by the great eastern
magazine. Montana farms thus pro-
duced at rate Of $4,000 each on
an average, as against $4,000 in
Colorado and nearly $4,000 in Cal
ifornia with it's deciduous fruit farms
and semi-tropical products.
Mining Review.
The receipts Of gold at the United
States assay office in Lewistown
have eclipsed those Of the preceding
year almost every months. While
this in large measure is due to the
development of properties in the
Little Rockies district, still the old
er counties have more than held
their own. Five years ago, Chout-
eau county was known as COW"
or agricultural and livestock section
exclusively. Now, it is one of the
leading gold producers, and it is
authoritatively stated that offers of
S. 100000 have been refused for a
single property known as the Ruby,
which is shipping from $4,000 to
$9O, 900 a month to the assay office.
In Fergus, the Barnes-King has
been rehabilitated in marked de-
gree. while the Kendall and others
are yieldino at a bountiful rate.
Walsh's Estimate.
William Walsh, state mine in
spector, estimates Montana's min
eral out put for 1909 at $57 100000
or better, as follows: Copper, $43,-
100000; gold, $4,0OO,O0O; silver,
$S,OOO,OO0, and lead $4,000, 900.
These figures are regarded as con-
servative.
The livestock industry never ex-
perienced a better year within the last
decade either with respect to prices
or range conditions. With the ex-
ception of January and February.

siiver-lead property at Lucky Boy. ar.
rived in Goldfeld yesterday to remain
for several days, the object of his visit
being to participate in the delibera.
lions of the grand jury of which he is
foreman.
Speaking of the Alamo property he
stated that the outlook for a big pro-
duetion under the direction of the
leasing company which recently zoos
over the property is especially bright.
The leases are j. r. Woodbridge of
the Western Ore Purchasing Company,
and j. j.. Mccarthy, the mining engi-
neer. Under the agreement they will
be privileged to work the mine for A
period of seventeen months from De-
cember first he said. "By the frs,
of the month the power line on which
we have been waiting for some time
will have been completed, and also the
new machinery will have been installed
in the mine.
1.-THE difficulty between the power
company people and the government re-
garding the laying of a quarter mile
length pipe line near Lundy has been
adjusted, and this work will be quick
ly completed. The leasing company
will begin at one the installation of a
100 horse power motor to work the
compressor and a IS horse power hoist
well as other necessary appliances,
and before December is far along the
new work under electric power should
be well under way. The shaft is down
$50 feet and is still in ore. The out
look is very promising"
1t is understood that Gus Eisen and
George Holleran are also members Of
the leasing company.

judicial bench in Churchill county, aud
E. A. Quicker will occupy a similar po-
sition in Humboldt county after Jan. l
1t is possible that new places for
holding court in this county will be CT
tablished, with the diminishing of the
confines of the judges precincts, and
that Gerlach may replace Winnenueca
in the itinerary of the district judges.
Judge Orr returned from Winrcmuc-
ca yesterday after holding court in

jury, in session there returned IL in
dictments, and eases were set for trial
commencing the first week in Deem
Der.
Litigation in Winnemucca has great
ly increased in the past two years,
showing a large percentage over the
number of cases there before. This is
responsible for the creation of the new
judicial district that will give Hum.
boldt county a judge of its W to at
tend to legal matters there.
Winnemucca expects that it may at
tract a portion of the divorce industry
with the establishm mt of a district
court there, as hereafter court will be
in session at Winnemucca practically
continually, and those with cases for
trial will not have to wait the coming
of the first judicial district judges.
