RAIN CAUSES
GREAT REJOICING
DRY FARMERS FEELING JUBI.
LIANT OVER BIG CROP
PROSPECTS.

The dry-farmers on the east side
of the range got one of the biggest
wettings they have had for years
last week. Jupiter Pluvius turned
on the water in his great sprinkling
wagon full force, and the farmers
are now smiling from ear to ear.
1t was certainly an occasion for
general rejoicing all around. The
rain was general all over the state
and from all appearances the crop
outlook was never better in Mon
tana. All the way along the Great
Northern, from Cut Bank to the
eastern border, which comprises the
dry-farming region, there fell a
warm soaking rain, and coming so
soon as it did after the rain of two
weeks before, it puts crop conditions
in the very best Of shape, and no
one needs to worry now for
some time to come.
Steam plows are working by the
dozens all over this section, and the
manner in which the land is being
broken up is revelation to the old
timers, and even exceeds the ex-
pectations of those who have seen
other countries develop. And not
only is the land being plowed, but
large areas are being seeded. The
principal crop being planted seems
to be flax, and those who have their
crop in state that it is coming up,
and doing nicely. In fact, old tim
ers from Dakota say that they nev-
er saw better looking flax at this
time of the year than is to be seen
all over northern Montana, at the
present time. This crop in a good
Year can be sowed even up to the
last of N,~y, and produce a good
yield, and many are still planning
to seed the ground that is being
broken. Surely, it looks as though
this would be a good crop year.

STATE HAS A VA
R|ETY Of CLIMATE

An indication of the variety of eli
mate the northwest has is the state
ment in a Lewiston, Idaho, paper
that the early cherries are on the
market from the local orchards, and
that the later variety of sweet cher
ries will be ripe before the first of
June. Lewiston is less than a hun
dred miles south of Kalispell, but is
considerably nearer sea level. In the
F1athead the blossoming time of the
cherry is scarcely over, and the
same cherry that is now ready for
market in the Lewiston orchards vii
not be ripe before the middle OF
July, or later. That does not mean
that the Lewiston cherry is a more
profitable or desirable crop than in
the Flathead; merely that they get
1t earlier Lewiston has to compete
with other sections of the country
for the early market, but by the
time the Flathead sweet cherry is
ripe, all others in the United states
are gone, and it has the market to
itself. The fact that of all sections
of the country where the sweet
cherry can be successfully grown, it
ripens last in the Flathead, will
make it one of the most profitable
of fruits when enough are raised to
make shipments to eastern markets
in quantity. The very early and
the late fruit of any kind gets the
high price, and Flathead sweet cher
ries in time to come will have a dis
tinct place in the Kalispell
Inter Lake.

PARK FUND
IS RAISED
WOMAN'S CIVIC CLUB HAS NOW
BEGUN RAISING A FUND
FOR A CEMETERY.

The Woman's Civic Club, after
several months of hard and diIig-
ent work has raised the $3.50 which
was required Of them in order 70
receive a donation Of $3.50 from the
city council and $3.50 from the
ToWnsite company. The fund was
completed last week and they are
now ready to present their claims
to the city council and the
Townsite company for their share,
and then active work will be COM
menced getting the ground cleared
off, plowed and scwed with grass
seeds. Several of the ladies have
been down, and marked out the high
stumps which they intend to leave
as supports for vines and rustic
seats.
The total sum Of $3.50 will proha-
bly, be sufficient to clear the whole
thing off, and it will be all done
this year. It has not yet been full
ly determined how the work will be
carried On, DuL there Will be some
thing doing pretty soon.
With the entertainment that as
given last evening it made a sur
plus in the park fund, and what is
over will be put into cemetery
fund. The next move that the club
will take up now is to raise suffi-
cient funds to buy tract of
ground for cemetery.
The city council took up the mat
ter of procuring a site for a ceme-
terry, for which there has been so
great demand, but were unsuccess-
full, so now the Woman's Civic Club
is going to take a hold of the mat
ter, and from the successful mar
ner in which they have carried
through all other undertakings, it
is felt certain that they will be ole
to procure a cemetery, also. They
are all willing workers, and will
work hard when they have the sup
port of the people behind them.
That they will have their support in
this is certain, because a town of
this size and age certainly ought to
have some place to bury the Dead
and not have to carry them to Kal-
ispell or Columbia Falls.

]. A. Robinson returned Friday
from Helena, where he has been

one of the interesting cases of the
session was the cases of the census
enumerators who padded the census
reports of Missoula, Billings and
Havre. Each city had different
system of swelling their population,
but they went at it so strong that
it was no trouble at all to see that
they had been to jealous in their

CAPTURE BOGUS
CHECK ARTIST
STAYED AROUND TOO LONG
AND FELL INTO HANDS
OF POLICE.

In certain office in this city
hangs a motto which reads Honor
Thy Father and Thy Mother, but
not Strangers Checks" This mot
to ought to be given wider publicity,
and then there might not be such
a good field FOR the bogus check
man.
A certain A. G. Puckett, alias
Victor Bell, alias Nelson A. Herricks
alias VIM. Emery, dropped into the
city Friday afternoon, hired livery
rig at Little's barn, and drove
around to get acquainted with the
lumbermen. He visited the State
and the Somers mills, and wound
up at hutchinson Here he stated
that he had purchased tract of
land in the Glacier National Park,
and wanted to buy lumber for four
houses. He engaged F. l.. Graves
as contractor, and after figuring for
several hours had carload of lum-
Der contracted. The cost of the
lumber came to $3.50, and he
offered in payment check for $500
asking Mr.. Hutchinson to give him
the difference in a personal check.
This Mr. Hutchinson declined to do,
stating that he would draw on him
when the lumber was ready to ship.
When he found out that he could
do no farther business there he
came down town to the Combination
saloon, where he offered in pay
ment for drinks a check for $7.75,
payable to bearer, and signed the
Hutchinson Lumber Co., per Wes
H." Mr.. Sprague, the proprietor, re
fused to honor the check, because
it was written in lead pencil. He
then took it to the Northern hotel
bar, where he succeeding in passing
it. they Knowing that the Hutch
inson Lumber company was re-
liable firm, thought it genuine. The
man who presented it claimed that
he had been working for them.
The next morning he went into
Lindhes store where he purchased
a suit of clothes, hat collar and tie.
After he had it all on he flashed
another check signed by the
Hutchinson Lumber Co., per w. ..
w.. in favor of Nelson A. Herrick.
He stated that he was employed by
them Mr.. McKelvy did not think
otherwise but what it was genuine,
and gave him back the difference In
change. Shortly after he was gone
Mr.. McKelvy investigated and
found out that the check was forg
cry, and put Constable Parent on
the forger's trail. After working on
the case for couple of hours Par
ent found his man at the Star Cloth
ing and Shoe company, trying on
rain coat, and placed him under ar
rest. He was put in Jail until Mon
dav Afternoon when he was given
hearing before Justice OF the Peace
c. N. Rcabuck. He waived eXamln-
alton to await the action OF the DIS
trict court, and was put under 5000
bail. but being unable to secure II
he was turned over to the custody
OF Constable Parent, who took him
to kalispell in the evening, ana
turned him ever TO the sheriff.
The man claims his real name is
T. G.. Puckett, and that his home
is in Bucyrus, Kan, where his fath-
er is a Methodist preacher. He
has been working his way gradually |
west. probably by this same method.
but would say nothing in regards to
his past. 1t is thought by the con-
stable that he will be wanted in sew
eral places on the same charge.
