WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.--There re-

N. P. SURVEYORS
COMING THIS WAY

The Rothiemay correspondent Of
the Hedges Herald says.
"The farmers of the Rothiemay
bench will be pleased TO learn that
the surveyors Of the n. L. cutoff be-
tween Glendive and Helena, are now
working northwest of Roundup, COM
pleting the survey between Glendive
and Judith Gap"
While in Miles City last week the
editor Of the journal learned from
authorative sources that the n. p.
would run the final survey Of their
short line through Dawson county
this spring. Instead of coming from
Glendive the road will run their Mott
line to Terry and from Terry to
Helena through Judith:Gap.
From other sources it. was learned
that the 500 road would in all proba-
bility run through Dawson county
south Of the Snowy mountains into
Spokane. II that road finally decides
to do this it will strike'Judith Gap on
its way west. The line this road has
surveyed through Dawson county
now runs about 40 miles north Of
Lewistown and crosses the Missouri
river near Fort Benton, crossing the
mountains in the KalispeIl district
and OIL west.
1t would be All easy matter for this
road to branch off in Dawson county
and run line south Of the Snowies
thus reaching Helena on its way to
the coast.
One thing is certain. there is rail-
road war on between the big trans
continental lines and Montana will
greatly benefit from the contest.

MONTANA ELK
FOR SAN DIEGO

San Diego, Cal. Jan. 15.-San Diego
is now thinking about investing in
the elk business. Charles Bowers.
of Montana, mentioned here that elks
from Yellowstone Park could be had
for the price of their catching and
shipping, and San Diego instantly
sat up and took notice. Balboa Park,
in the heart of the city. embraces
1.4OO acres, on the center of which
the San Diego exposition Of 1918 is
being constructed, although the Ell
tire park is being beantitied. 1t took
about three.quarters of a second for
the idea of stocking the park to sink
in after Bowers mentioned it. 1t ap-
pears probable now that soon this
city will import few carloads of
Yellowstone elks and turn 'em loose
in the big preserve. They are want
ed as a part of the 1918 exhibit.

BEST ANIMALS
FOR SLAUGHTER

Animals with fine bones, soft lux
uriant hair. are more likely to yield
good quality of meat than those with
coarse bones and wlry hair, says An
drew Boss, Of the Minnesota state
farm.
An animal should never be losing
in flesh at the time Of slaughter, II
failing, the muscle tibers are shrink
ing in form and contain small amount
Of water. As q consequence, the
meat is tough and dry. When the
animal is gaining in flesh the oppo-
site condition obtains and better
quality Of meat results. A better
meat product will be obtained from
All animal in only medium flesh but
ginning rapidly than from an animal
that is very fat but not gaining in
flesh.
Animals intended for slaughtering
should be kept off feed from "a to 36
hours. II kept on full food the sys-
tenn is gorged and the blood loaded
with assimilated nutrients is driven
to the extremeties of the capillaries.
In such u condition it is impossible
to drain ont the veins thoroughly
when the animal is bled and reddish
cOlored, unattractive carcass will be
the result.
Water should be given freely up to
the time of slaughter rs 1t keeps the
temperature normal and helps to
wash the effete matter out Of the sys-
tenn. resulting in nicely colored
carcass. 1t is important that the
animals be not excited in any WAY
sufficiently to raise the temperature
Of the body previous to killing. Ex.
citement prevents proper drainage Of
the blood vessels and, il extreme,
will cause souring Of the meat very
soon after dressing.
In no instance should an animal be
killed Immediately after = long drive

STEPS BEING TAKEN
TO INCORPORATE

At last Judith Gap knows what is necessary in or
der to qualify candidate for county seat honors
and is taking steps so meet the requirements
The new law under which Wheatland county is
being formed has been submitted to eminent legal
authorities and it is their decision that town must
be incorporated in order to be qualified get on the
ballot as candidate for county seat. They fully
sustain the opinion of Attorney General Galen.
The business of Judith Gap met in the bank
building Tuesday evening, at which meeting r. c.
Piepho and Lyle A. Cowan were appointed to take
correct census of the population of Judith Gap.
Another committee appointed consisting of G. S.
Bills, c. l.. Beers and s. Small to circulate petit
tion for the required number of signatures asking
the county commissioners to incorporate Judith
Gap This petition requires the signatures Of fifty
voters who are residents within the proposed cor
porate limits.
The number of people necessary to incorporate a
town is 3OO 1t is certain that Judith Gap has more
than enough to meet this requirement.
With Judith Gap legally upon the ballot for county
seat it stands good chance to land the prize. If
all the property owners along the line Of the Great
Northern railway in the eastern end of WheatIand
county and in the Fergus county strip will vote to
increase the value of their holdings, Judith Gap
ought to receive 500 votes There will be less than
900 votes cast it can be readily that Judith
Gap has fighting chance to win.
The boundary lines Of the proposed county
not entirely satisfactory to Judith Gap nor He'd
gesvile But they the best that could be obtain
ed and they probably the best that could ever be
obtained with 50 many conflicting interests and 10
cal rvalries with which to contend. After the coun-
ty is divided effort be made to add to the new
county more territory from Fergus and some from
Musselshell counties. This will have to be done by
special legislative enactment but it will be an easy
matter provided the people in the strips unani-
mousy in favor of coming in.
As it is at the present time Judith Gap is about
the center of population of the proposed new county,
It has splendid railroad facilities by which the
ty seat can be reached quickly by the bulk of the
taxpayers, and that is what really The clos

land becomes and it is upon this truis that Judith

There seems to be little doubt that
a real race for Congress is on in
the Eleventh District, where State
Senator W. L. Converse, of Lowndes,
has determined to contest the seat of
Representative Randall Walker.
Senator Converse has a long and
most creditable Legislative record,
and is very popular, in both houses of
the General Assembly Friends of
his coming to Atlanta from far South
Georgia say that his candidacy, as
yet young, is winning much favor,
and that he will have to be reckoned

Those who know Senator Converse

truth of the suggestion.
