JEFFERSON FOREST
LAND ENTRIES

Applications for 1856 homesteads To-
Gated in the Jefferson national forest
which comprises the Snowy and Lit
tie Belt mountains, were filed during
the fiscal year ending June 30. 1911,
according to the annual report of W.
5. Perrine, supervisor of the .Jeffer-
son forest, which has just been is
sued. This is over One-third OF all
those filed during the five years since
the passage of the act of June II, 1906,
under which the applications for
homesteads in national forests are
now made. Since that date 347 such
applications for Jeffetson forest land
have been listed with the secretary of
the interior for opening for entry.
This means that the forest officials
have examined the claims applied for
and found them to be agricultural
IL nds and Recommended them for o},-
ening to entry to the secretary of the
interior.
The total acreage listed for entry
during the past year was IL, 1000 acres,
and the total listed for entry in the
five years past has been 2O,05O acres.
This indicates at what u remarkable
rate land settlement has been going
ahead in Montana. Most OF the 1856
applications filed during the past
year came in since last field season
and hence have not yet been examin-
ed. as to their agricultural nature.
A crew of men is now ut work max
ing these examinations. They are
now engaged in the Musselshell sec.
ton east Of White Sulphur Springs.

BILL RICHARDS
LOSES A FOOT

". s. Richards, who lives on his
squatter's claim north of the Little
Belts, met with an accident Sunday in
which he lost one of his feet.
lie was in Straw Sunday celebrat-
ing with some cOngenial friends and
in the evening started to drive home
in company with stranger. When
some distance out the stranger got
out of the buggy to open gate when
the horses ran away with Richards in
the buggy. 1t was quite dark at the
time and the companion started in
search of the runaway team and final
ly located it. He found Richards on
the ground with his leg in the buggy
wheel and apparently asleep. Both
lay on the prairie until morning.
When Richards regained conscious
ness he did not know that he had met
with horrible accident except that
there was no feeling in the foot and
his leg was numb. His companion
soon discovered that Bilps leg was
broken just above the ankle, the foot
hanging only by shred of skin.
Richards was taken to Straw and
DR.. Miller of Buffalo was summoned.
After amputating the foot the injur-
ed man was sent to Lewistown hos
pital on the freight Monday morning.
and at last reports he was getting
along as we'll as could be expected.
Both men were too intoxicated to
know Just how the accident happen
I'd, but it is supposed that when the
horses ran away, Richards tried to
get out OF the buggy and got tangled
IN the wheel. which stopped the team.
1t seems almost Il miracle that the in
juried man did not bleed to death
during the night.

Perhaps of all words in hu.

which when a man speaks 1t
means no more or less than his

BAD HAIL STORM
HERE MONDAY

Monday evening a hail storm visit.
ed this section doing considerable
damage to growing crops. The storm
came from the Judith Basin in the di-
rection of Buffalo, and swept over
the point of the Little Belt mountains
ana swung southeast. Carlson 8 mag
nificent crops on his farm adjoining
the townsite was damaged about 20
per cent. His wheat bid fair to 90 Is
bushels per acre before the storm.
and was one of the finest fields of
waving grain to be seen anywhere in
the Basin.
John DOlan. adjoining the townsite
ON the east, reports u loss of a bout go
per cent. No insurance OH this crop,
nor CarlsOn's.
There was not much damage done
south Of town. except in very few
cases, where the hail seemed to cut
the corners of fields.
Z. &. StaytOn's oats, he thinks.
will not be worth threshing, but he
will cut the crop for hay. His flax
field was not injured, while little
damage was done to his wheat.
The storm swung to the northeast
to the Snowy mountains, damaging
all the crops in its path OF about two
miles in width. II. G. Finch, Nils
Larson, Abraham Olson, Jack Soden,
Scally Bros. Schnittger and Lennon,
all report more or less damage. John
Leichleiter had total loss. The
crops could not be better and the loss
Will come as a great hardship OH
those who expected so much for their
seasons labor. In several instances
the winter wheat was ready to cut.
The spring wheat everywhere in the
path of the storm is almost IL total
loss, while winter wheat and flax
stood the onslaught remarkably well.
All sections of the country in the
United States are more or less sub
ject to devasting hail storms, and the
only proper thing to do is to carry
some hail insurance. A man in busi-
ness would be considered foolish if he
did not carry fire insurance on his
buildings, and policy on your grow
ing crops is just as wise protection
as a fire policy OH your buildings and
stock of goods. We have all got to
learn, however, and the best way is
through experience.

PLANT LOUISE
IN THE BASIN

Editor JOurnal.-We have received
number OF complaints regard q
plant-louse or aphid injuriously af-
fecting grain in the Judith Basin. In
number of instances specimens of
the injured grain have been sent.
From the correspondence we gather
that there is considerable interest in
the subject among the grain growers
and 1t seems desirable that we briefly
discuss the situation, and ask for in.
fOrmortiOn.
From the letters and specimens re-
ceived we have been unable to form
clear idea regarding the nature of the
injury and exact species causing the
trouble. 1t is very desirable that all
who have the insect in their fields
should write the Experiment Station
at Bozeman and send specimens in or
der that we may get further informa-
ton. 1t is especially desirable that
we receive \ good supply OF the living
insects which may be found inside
the curled leaves OF the greener plants.
These should be sent to us in tin box
es. All that have been sent 50 far
have been in paper or pasteboard and
have arrived ina dry and damaged
condition.
We would like to get information
regarding when the insect was first
seen in the locality and whether this
is the first season that injury has been
noticed.
1t is our opinion that this insect
will not necessarily be injurious next
year or later. At the same time it is
desirable to get us much information
us possible this year in order that
during the fall or winter the Expert
ment Station may issue Il circular Of
informatiOn.
1t is quite clear that nothing can be
dcne to save any injured grain this
season. and in the future il the in
sect continues to multiply it is prob.
able that we will he obliged to de-
pend mainly on natural enemies to
destroy it. The specimens that have
been sent in SO far have not been Of
service in showing whether or n0t
these PARASITES are ut work in the lo-
cality.
We wish. then, to urge upon the
grain growers the desirability Of
sending us promptly supply of the
living insects packed in tight tin box.

ALL ABOUT THE swoRDFlsH
Il 10 Born In the Mediterranean and
Americans Have Learned II 10 I
Delicate Food.

The swordf1sh has arrived. We have
called attention hitherto to the state.
ment Of naturalists that these fish are
never found small and young on our
Atlantic coast. They are born across
the seas in the Mediterranean. When
they begin to feel the spirit of adven.
ture they start over for q summer
along the North Atlantic shore. Here
they spend the season. and, II they
are not taken to market, they disap-
pear again when the water cools and
of they go. They are taken by har.
poon. 1t is their custom to lie on
the surface Of the ocean. their great
back fms swaying in the air. Ap.
parently they sleep. But nobody would
call them sleepy after the harpoon
hits in. A considerable line is attach.
ed to q barrel at one end and harpoon
at the other. The fish is struck and
then over goes the line. barrel, and
the whole outfit. The fish sets of
madly. but after time tires and in a
dory the fisherman draws up to him,
sticks him with a knife, much as a
pig is dealt with in the farm, the ocean
reds for space about the boat, and
then several hundred pounds OF fish
are hauled on board the larger craft.
Last year swordflsh were scarce and
the fishermen got as high as Is cents
a pound. This year the Boston mar
ket Is giving the princely sum of four
cents a pound. OF late years New
York has taken to eating swordftsh,
but for long time the meat was un-
salable there and New England did
all the eating. Few fish furnish Q
more delicate food. =

years in Europe. I stopped in New

mp Broadway to Fourteenth street. Il
was the midday meal hour:-and the
streets were thronged with all sorts
and conditions Of men, and yet not

benches were full of men and women,

but no word Of our national tongue

next day was Sunday and I spent the
afternoon in Bronx park. I arrived BY
