Bros. worlds greatest shows" was
In the city yesterday to see what en-
couragement would be given for bring
ing the great circus here on Aug. z.
On the way between Great Falls and
Billings, the circus will have one open
day and trip of sixty miles will bring
1t here. Mr.. Petit called upon leading
business men and also paid the Cham
Der OF Commerce visit. That organ
ization gave the plan it's cordial en-.
dorsement and Secretary l.. ID. Blod-
gett sent in a communication asking
that the council agree to give it's ap-
proval of the Chambers action. This
was done. The Ringing show re-
qulres eighty cars to carry it's animals,
equipment and people, and it's appear
ance here on Aug. will undoubtedly
result in bringing more people to
Lewistown than have ever gathered
here in the city's history.
Trees Are Spared.
Judge E. X. Cheadle stated that at a
time when the old ordinance was in
force, he had set out a long row of
shade trees in front of his property
opposite the Hawthorne school. Since
then the ordinance as to the width Of
walks had been changed and strict
enforcement of it would mean that
this long line of trees would, after all
these years, have to be cut down. He
could come within a foot of the re-
quirement and save the trees. 1t was
decided to spare the trees.
City Depositaries.
The following banks, having filed
bonds in the sums noted, were by
resolution declared city depositaries:
Bank of Fergus County, $4,000; First
National Bank, $4,000; Empire Bank,
$4,000; Lewistown State Bank, $1O,-
600.
City Attorney Kirkland stated that
he had prepared the paving resolu-
tions and the notice was now being
gotten out by the stenographer; also
that he had completed the sidewalk
ordinance, which was in the hands of
the city engineer to insert the specifi-
cations.
Mayor Symmes suggested that the
next meeting be devoted to a consid-
Grafton of the city's financial condi-
tion and that the annual tax levy be
then decided upon. This was agreed
to.
Two resolutions relating to sewers
now in course of construction were
adopted.

PICNIC TO
Be FRIDAY. JULY IS
SPECIAL TRAIN SERVICE FOR
THIS ANNUAL EVENT At
MOCCASlN.

The following official announcement
of the Judith Basin Farmers Picnic
association regarding this seasons
picnic has just been issued.
Professor F. S. Cooley announces
that the Fifth Annual Judith Basin
Farmers Picnic and Demonstration
day will be held at the Experiment
Station, near Moccasin, on Friday,
July Is, 1918. Arrangements are now
being made to make this years event
as much of success as it has been in
the past. All the towns in the Basin
have evidenced an interest in the af-
fair and no efforts will be spared to
make 1t success.
&. II. Peterson, the Fergus county
farm expert, will devote the necessary
time to handling the different details
OF the program to be carried out In
addition to the usual program of
speaking. ball games and athletic
sports, several special attractions
have been planned, which will be of
special interest to the farmers.
Special Train Service.
The Great Northern railway will
give special train service to the Ex-
pertinent Station on the day of the
picnic, the schedule to be announced
later.
No announcements have yet been
made as to the speakers, but assur-
ance has been given that Montana's
new governor, Sam v. Stewart, will
be among the prominent men pres
ent, in addition to the corps of speak
ers representing the Montana Expert
ment Station and the department of
agriculture.
The Judith Basin farmers picnic
has become an event in class of it's
own and is without doubt the biggest
thing of this character in the state
and in the northwest. While it began
five years ago as demonstration day
in but very small way, it has grown
to such an extent that the Montana
Experiment Station regards it as the
one important feature in its work
The dry farming demonstrations that
are given serve to impress the farm
er with actual results attained at the
station, which can be similarly Sc
cured on his own farm by following
the same simple methods. More farm
ers attend the demonstrations at the
Judith Basin Experiment Station each
year than at all the other stations
combined.

Mayor w. ID. Symmes presided at
last nights meeting of the city cOun-
Gil, with all the aldermen present, and
a good deal of routine business was
disposed Of.
Several kicks" resulting from the
low water pressure were registered,
Mayor Symmes stating that he had re-
ceived numerous complaints all day
from the hill district, which had prac-
tically been without water. The cause
was chiefly the very large amount of
water being used for irrigating and
the carelessness of irrigators. The
mayor stated that he had learned OF
four open hose running during the
afternoon.
G. E. Shoemaker, speaking for him.
self and the dry benchers," put in a
polite but very vigorous protest
against the lack of service.
City Engineer Birkland stated that
the stopping of leaks on the wooden
line, above the iron system, was in
progress and would bring some i'm
provement.
Judge E. w. Mettler was present to
suggest that the iron pipe line be COM
pleted up to the spring, but was in
formed that this would cost around
$4,000.
The city engineer suggested that
the irrigating hours be curtailed DUR
ing the hot season, practice followed
in practically every city in the state
and every other state, but this did
not meet with much favor, probably
because our ordinance does not maEs@
any such provision. He was instruct
ed to publish notice to all water users
that they must comply strictly with
the ordinance. If this does not solve
the problem, it will be necessary to
pump in water from the creek, and in
that event all water used for domestic
purposes should be boiled
Mayor Symmes stated that numer-
Gus complaints had been received as
to defective sidewalks in various
parts OF the city and instructions were
given to have all walks put in good
The city engineer was instructed to
put In drain from the Lincoln school
across Sixth avenue.
Unemployed Men.
Mayor Symmes stated that some of
the railroad contractors had been
shipping men in here and then failing
to provide them with work. Some
days ago one firm shipped in a hun
dred men without having employment
for them. These men came to see him
and many of them were without the
price OF meal. He personally took
the matter up with these contractors
and they agreed to snip these men
out on the first train coming in, which
they did. Yesterday another lot of un-
employed men, brought here under
similar circumstances, presented their
complaint to the mayor and some of
the aldermen. This practice was one
that the mayor and council both wish
to see stopped, and the city attorney
was asked to give it consideration.
