SOME ADVICE TO THE HUNTERS

The big game season in Montana
opened Friday and thus hundreds oil
Montana nilnrOds were eager for the
day to dawn.
From present indications there will
be more men enjoying this outdoor
sport this year than ever before. With
an increased number of hunters the
danger of accidents is corresponding
ly increased, The safety first" slo,
gan is just as applicable to big game
hunting as any other line and with
that in view the following list of
| "don'ts" has been prepared as re-
IN nder.
Don't point a gun at any person in
fun. This is no matter for jest It
is always that gun that I'VE did not
know was loaded" that goes Off. The
only time to point a gun is when you
intend to kill.
Don't carry loaded gun or rifle in
a buggy. automobile or any other kind
of vehicle
| Don't carry loaded guns through the
street, on street cars trains or leave
them around tarmhOuscs, to have
/ some child piayfully blow your head
off.
I Don't get excited and shoot without
making snre that your object is game.
Don't shoot until you see the rab.
bit, and then be sure that he is clear
| OF both man and dog.
Don't forget to break: your gun
or clear the chamber when standing
with others or crossing fence.
Don't drag gun under a fence with
muzzle pointed toward you.
+. Don't climb over fences with your
gun, OF lean it against tree until
you get over; put it through the fence
on the grounds, business end before
Don't hunt with any one that you
know to be careless. Carelessness
with three and quarter drains OF
! powder behind one and one-eightll
ounces OF shot is inviting ST. Peter.
Keep your fingers Off the trigger
until you are looking down the bar
rel at 'Hrer Rabbit
Don't get intoxicated.
Don't load youl gun until you ac
tually get to business. At all other
times ii should be empty.
Don't use a cheap gun. They are
apt to explode when using heavy
charges.
Don't rest on the muzzle of youl
Don't borrow dog or gun or loar
either.
Don't shirk doing little more thar
your shares of the work in camp OF

Don't violate the game laws.

CRYSTAL LAkE:
BUNGALOW SITES

In regard to personal invcstiga
tion of the possibilities OF bungalow
SITES on CRYSTAL lake and the approach
thereto, Forest Supervisor Scott Lea
witt has written to Mr.. o. +. Wasman
dorff aloag the following lines:
'"rhc lake shore was traycrsed and
1 tentative plan for summer residence
sites outlined. and the proposed road
map was ce.efully gone over by Mr.,
Lcavitt and several others. AS to the
road route, Mr.. Leavitt states that
there is a great deal of this which can
not be seen from the hill by Crystal
lake, from which point it was viewed
last spring To actually build an au-
tomoble road would require the hand
ling OF a great deal of material, most
ly rock and stone, which would make
hardwork necessary. To make a ten
or twelve foot grade would probably
require an average of $2,5OO to $4,000
per mile, as thorough ditching and cul-
verts also would be necessary. The 10
cation offers very good grade. how
ever, and the whole question. accord.
ing to the writer, appears to be OF
whether or not the expense of the road
would be prohibitive.
at appears to me-" he suggests,
that probably the most feasible OF
all the propositions would be to have
Il stage coach at the Montana ranch
with a construction of a mile or so OF
road at the upper end of Rock creek
This could be made rather pic
turesque feature, but would not be as
convenient as to run automobiles the
entire distance. 1t would, however
be much cheaper.
"a traverse of the lake shore by
Mr., Grossman indicated that probably
- good residence sites can be found
around the lake without using the
upper end of the lake. On the flat
there, a great manv more sites car
be placed little distance back.
Il would suggest that the matter
be considered from the standpoint ol
whether or not the necessary expense
is too great at the present time, anc
Ialso the probable amount that could
be raised in support OF the project.
