5O,OOO,OOo FISH
FOR MONTANA

Montana, next year and for several
years to come, if the present campaign
to stock the streams of the state with
fish is carried out rs planned. will Of
Ter to residents of the state and tour
lists the greatest fishing of any state
in the Union. During the past four
years the fishermen Of the state. the
members of the different anglers as
sOciatiOns and the government have
devoted much time to planting brook
trout in every creek, river and stream
Of the state. 1t is estimated that at
least 81, ,OOO. 900 fish have been put into
the streams of Montana during this
time.
This season more than half that
number of fish have been planted in
the various llaunts of fishermen. Al,-
prOximately 5,OOO,OOO fish Matched at
the Anaconda government hatchery
and at the Columbia Gardens acquar-
ium have been put into creeks and
streams in the immediate vicinity Of
Butte. Within another two years
these tisl, will have grown to fair-siz-
ed trout that will attract hundreds
and Hundreds of tourists and fisher
men to this section of the state.
The Silver Bow County Anglers
association is largely responsible for
the activity in the stocking Of Mon
tana streams the past few years.
This association, through its untir-
ing efforts to assure good fishing in
the state and preserve the fish and
game of Montana, began u campaign
several years ago to stock each stream
in Silver Bow county and the imm ed
late vicinity annually. The result Of
the association work can now easily
be seen.
Early this week 5OO,O 900 native and
eastern brook trout were planted in
the streams Of Cascade county Ivy G.
II. llealea, who has charge of the
hatchery ut Anaconda.
The Anaconda hatchery was estab-
lished three years ago and has hatch
ed for planting in Montana streams
more than ~. 600 200 fish in that time.
More than 10000, 900 eggs have been
secured from the government station
at Echo lake in the Yellowstone park
same length OF time.
The campaign Of stocking the
streams Of Montana has gained such
al impetus the past year that the
state is now engaged in building u
new hatchery ut kalispell. In the
Flathead county alone there are $50
square miles Of water, ali Of which
can be utilized for the production Of
commercial food fish. Lake Superior
white fish find that water thriving
spot.
The present activity all over the
state which was largely brought
about through the progressiveness of
the Silver Bow County Anglers as
sOciatiOn is most gratifying to thu
members Of the parent organization
and without doubt in two years when
the followers Of lz.ak Walton are en-
jOying their pleasant excursions along
the banks of Il well-stOcked trout
stream they will utter \ word of
thanks to the men who started this

HOMESTEADERS
NOT GIVEN TIME

According to instructions from
Washington All important ruling has
just been made which is OF great IN
terest to the prospective homestead
tilers in this district. The Judith
land Office has received these instruc-
tions which make il material change
in relation to the making of final
proofs by homesteaders, for there
under actual residence on the land
for five years is required, and the six
months period of constructive resi-
dence" will not be taken into account
after Dec. l, 1911.
In submitting the instructions the
commissioner of the general land Of
flee says in part:
''ln the matter of proof submitted
under the homestead law, it seems
that Il practice has existed according
to entrymen, where residence is be-
gun within six months following the
date of entry. credit for residence is
given with the date of entry. The
result is that where Il party takes up
an actual residence just at the en-
piration of the six months following
the making of his entry. he is accord
ed a constructive residence for the in
tervening six months, and is thus per-
mitted to secure title OH proof of resi-
dence for only four years and six
months.
''There is clearly no statutory au-
thority recognizing the period OF con-
structive residence referred to. On
the contrary the statute is specific in
requiring five years residence"
The commissioner then quotes the
section of the statute III point which
sets forth, in substance, that in max
ing final proof the hOmesteader must
make affidavit that he has actually
resided upon or cultivated the land
for five years Immediately succeed
ing the time of entry.
Continuing, the commissioner
says: "Thereunder Il hOmests sa(

LAND SHOWS
QUITE POPULAR

Seattle Sept. s.-Since million i'm
migrants enter this country annually
by way OF New York City, the first
American Land and Irrigation Expo
sition will be held there next Novem-
ber from the third to the twelfth.
Besides forming the basis for getting
in touch with this steady influx, it is
believed that the exhibit will prove a
worthy means for stimulating an in
terest in returning to the land among
the many millions of people living in
and around the metropolis.
Land shows have become quite pop
ular since inaugrated in Chicago sew
eral years ago. by bringing evidences
Of agricultural possibilities right into
the midst of the populous districts,
they have been found to possess u
very beneficial appeal. The plans for
the New York exposition are tile most
comprehensive of any yet made. No
table is the premium list which in
cludes more than 900 in cash priz-
es and cups for the best entries in diff
ferent classes This list will induce
many farmers to compete.
For the best oats grown i'll the Unit
ed States this summer, a splendid sill
yer trophy valued at 81, 900 has been
donated by President A. j. Earling
Of the Chicago, Milwaukee Il St. Paul
hallway. The oats must lie taken
from field of not less than an acre.
No distil ction will be made between
irrigated and nonirrigated product.
The judges will consider yield, purity
and quality Of the grain. Each entry
must consist of at least two bushels
of grain and a bundle showing the
heads and length of the straw.
President Earrings cup is hand
some specimen Of the modern silver
smiths art and will be well worth
any farmer trying for, to say nothing
Of the accompanying honor rs the
champion oats grower Of the United
States. Other handsome prizes are
offered for wheat. corn, cotton, pota-
toes, barley. sugar beets, apples, hops
and alfalfa. In fact, any person who
makes his living off the land viii have
4 chance to enter one or more Of the
competitions. u
Oat growers of the Pacific North
west ought to find the offering of this
handsome trophy an inspiration to
compete. Nowhere does this crop
grow better than right here and there
is no reason why the Thousand Dol
lar prize should not be won by some
farmer in the territory traversed by
the Milwaukee, which is responsible
for the prize. The grower who is en-
terprising enough to capture it will

claim could only be initiated by Ell
try, and, as Il consequence. it is pro-
vided that no patent shall be issued
until the expiration of tive years
from the date Of entry, and therein it
is also plainly required that the party
seeking to secure patent shall prove
residence for the term of five years.
'The practice OF according credit
for constructive residence for six
months is, perhaps, due to an errOn-
eOus Interpretation OF the section uli-
der which it is provided that on
proof to the satisfaction of the regis
ter and receiver that Il person has
actually changed his residence or
abandoned the land covered by his
homestead entry for more than six
months at any one time, then, in that
event. the land shall revert to the
government.
"While this section may protect IA
hOmesteader from contest for aban-
dOnment for Il period of six months
following the allowance Of his entry,
it is clearly not authority for accord
ing to entrymen credit for construc-
tive residence during that time.
"After most careful and mature
consideration of this matter feel it
my duty to disregard the erroneous
practice heretofore obtaining in your
office and to direct that you exact of
homestead entrymen proof of resi-
dence for the full five years, before
the same can be approved as Il basis
for the issuance of patent thereon.

and proper to give ample time for the

therefore to ADVISE you that in all in
