NEWS OF MONTANA
Important Happenings Of the
Week Briefly Told.
MONTANA'S BUMPER CROP.
Great Northern Road Distributes
Cars to Avoid Shortage,

Plans to handle grain from Montana
so there will be no Car shortage are
being made by the traffic department
OF the Great Northern road. According
to estimates from various points in
Montana, there will be a bumper r
in Montana. The capacity of the Great
Northern will be taxed to carry the
grain to Minneapolis and to the head
of the lakes.
}. T. McGaughty, assistant general
passenger and freight agent of the road
at Helena, has sent a crew of experts
to estimate the crop so the company
may have the right number of cars as
sembled at threshing time. Many of
the cars are being distributed in Mon
tana now, as threshing in some sec.
tons has already begun.
Flush With Grain.
Montana, Washington and North Da-
kota will ship large quantities of wheat
this year and reports as to output, car
distribution and when each locality
will be ready for cars are being re-
ceived at the Great Northern offices.
In some sections of Montana it was
feared that he demand for cars would
exceed the supply, but these fears were
allayed by the railroad officials who
nave assured the farmers about Judith
Gap that there will be enough cars for
all.
The county about Judith Gap on
the new Billings line, has Cpened up
under favorable auspices, according to
report. There were 1000 pounds Of
binder twine sold in that vicinity last
year, and 10000 pounds his veal.
Two Years Figures.
Nineteen binders We're sold last year
and 33 this year. There were 100. 600
bushels harvested in 1910 and a yield
OF 100000 bushels is expected this
year. It is expected that in the Mon
tana branch lands, where dry farming
has been employed, there will be an
average Of 20 bushels Of wheat to the
acre, and in some places the yield will
amount to 80 or 50 bushels. These are
estimates sent in by the agents for the
Great Northern.
The Montana increase, according to
these reports, should mount up this
year into the millions of bushels. From
July, 1908, to January 1911, there We're
more than 10000 homestead entries
made in the state. Most of these were
on the Great Falls, Havre and Glasgow
division of the Great Northern, and
farmers near these centers expect a
bumper crop.

EXCELLENT VENTILATION OF
STABLES OF ORDINARY SIZE
Most Satisfactory System Is Described and I11ustrated-No
Plan That Will Automatically Meet All Conditions
Of Wind and Weather The Cause Of
Corrosion of Metal Frames.

For stables of ordinary width. the
common and most satisfactory form
of fresh air inlet is a sash at each
stall hinged at the bottom, opening
inward, but with galvanized iron
pieces attached to the sides of the
window frame, SO that the only air
admitted has to take an upward
course over the top Of the sash.
writes George F. Weston in the Coun-
try Gentleman. This prevents direct
drafts. A piece of chain stapled to
the top of the frame, with a beheaded
wire nail projecting from the top of
the sash, allows the window to be
opened any number of links. The free
edges of the metal side plates are
turned upward SO as to make a stop
that prevents the windows from fall
Ing open too wide.
There is no system of ventilation
that will automatically meet all con-
ditions OF wind and weather, which
at times will call for the closing of
all windows to windward, and opening

FIND MISSING WOMAN'S BODY.
Berry Pickers Find Remains of Butte
Widow in Mountains.

Butte. THE badly decomposed re.
mains Of Mrs. Jessie Moore, an attrac-

mysteriously early in July, just prior to
the date set for her wedding, were
found III the ear of Columbia gardens,
a pleasure resort east OF Butte. The

bands who are husbands by nature,
and others who are non-husbands
Well, this Jamie was a non-husband-
Ind what that is l hope l shall here
make clear.
James had been unmarried for a
considerable number of years after
he had reached manageable age.
You see, he was %harnessed to the
chariot Of the press for a sufficient
lumber of hours every day. But right

Yet when James, who, though a non.
husband, is not silly, thinks this over,
he recognizes that she could not know.
In her W town, the only town she
ever lived in, men came home from
business at six o'clock and took their
wives to prayer meeting afterwards,
or to the Ladies' Aid chicken pie sup
per, or just sat around the evening
lamp like you read about.
That was the life Genevieve had
pictured for her and James. But
James never saw the evening lamp

his.
Then the baby came, a boy and the
pride Of James heart. A non-hus.
band may surprise you by being q
born father.
His day off now became the occa-
sion, to Genevieve's husband, when
he might see Babykins put to bed.
Babykins, unrolled from his little
buds, had SO many dimples.
One evening, just when these pro-
c%eedings were at their highest point
of excitement and Genevieve was won
dering if James would ever take his
eyes off Babykins long enough to see
Babykin's mother, something broke
out in the hall Of the apartment house
just outside their door.
1t dubbed with sWears and shrieks,
cracked with a pistol shot or two, and
toward it James face strained as the
iron to the magnet. The negro janitor
flashed past the door, as he opened
it-just a black Strickland down the
hall James found a girl, the janitor's
girl CORY and unpleasant, revolver
in hand, and a wound hidden away
somewhere in the mysteries and

after the %janitor in a jealous fury,
Nobody killed. but a snappy little
story because of the high standing of
the apartment house. James at once
'phoned it to his paper.
Then, I've left Genevieve rather
long, perhaps she's worried whis-
pered James to his conscience. And,
"Worried?" Kissed his conscience to
James.
Genevieve was worse than worried
She was packing. She said hat such
occurrences were calculated to be OF
the greatest disadvantage to baby.
She said that a man who would run

she did not mention the baby
James was troubled. He had that
sense of having to do his work which
he had tried to explain and make

Moisture condensed during cold
