MAKES ADDRESS AT PICNIC
Governor Stewart Speaks to Judith Ba'
sin Farmers Association-Tells
of Growth of Montana.

MISUNDERSTANDING before the sew
enth annual picnic of the Judith Far
mers' Picnic association, Gov. S. V
Stewart said in part:
'The growth of agricultural Mon
tana is one of the marvels of the age
We, ourselves, do not appreciate the
rapid development of the farming area
in this state, and those who can com
prehend what has been done in the
past are even themselves unable to
grasp the full extent of the brilliant
future which lies before this common
wealth. Even today there are in oMn-
tana men who, while conceding that
the state is capable of the production
of considerable quantities of wheat,
will smile in a superior sort of way
at the mention Of Montana-grown corn,
and yet the value of Montana's corn
crop of 1914, which exceeded $1,000
900, was within $4,000 of the value OF
Montana's wheat crop in 1900, Is years
before.
Let us briefly look back over the
last ~ Years and see what progress
Montana has made in the race for
agricultural supremacy. In 1900 this
state was forty-fifth in rank in the
production of corn, its corn crop being
worth but $14,172. In 1914 only IL
states Of the Union produced more
wheat than Montana, and Montana
wheat growers sold their crop for
more than $t7,000,000."

TO START development.
Butte Men Interested In Mines In
Boulder District of Granite Coun-
ty-Section comming to Fron1

Anaconda.-The Boulder district in
Granite county is coming to the front
in mining matters, according to Char
les M. Schmille, who owns the Blue
bird group there, about six miles
above Princeton, and who has just
completed a deal for the leasing and
bonding If his properties. The group
consists of eight claims, on which
about 1900 feet Of tunneling has been
done in nine tunnels. The ore on the
different claims runs on an average
of $67 ton in gold silver, copper
and lead. The bond and lease has
been taken by Butte parties, DocBar-
gar, James Pascoe, w. L. Duckham
and Charles w. Mosher. The claims
have been worked for about 20 years.
They were under bond and lease, and
were leased twice, but those who
held the leases were unable to raise
the money necessary to carry the
thing to success. The Butte men will
start work on the development in
few days.

JAILER MAKES RECORD TRIP.
to Rearrest Defendant In Al
legged Cattle Stealing Case.

Hamilton.-Jailer Clarence Hogan
and John G. Ritchie made a record
trip to the Big Hole country. The
trip was made at the instance of the
bondsmen on the bond of Henry J..
Spooner, who is charged with cattle
stealing. Upon report that he was
in that country and fearing that he
would endeavor to leave, the bonds
men directed that he be taken into
custody again. The car left Hamilton
at 500 and arrived In Wisdom at 1,
making the trip up the seven miles
of 6 per cent. grade crossing the Big
Hole mountain in 80 minutes. From
Wisdom they went down the north
fork 35 miles to the Mussigbrod ranch
and returned, picking up Spooner on
the return trip and continuing home.
On the return they left Wisdom at
$3.50 in the evening and got back to
Hamilton at In the morning, making
the trip down the mountain at night
in As minutes. They report the new
park-to-park road fine in every re-
spect, and the record trip is ample
evidence of it.

FIRST AUTO SEASON BEGINS.
Admission of Machines into Yellow
stone Subject of Much Discussion
Among Park Officials.

Livingston.-The all-absorbing ques.
ton which is agitating the officers of
the different companies operating in
Yellowstone National park and the
army officers and the source of most
of the talk between employees and
tourists In the park just now Is the
effect the admission of automobiles
will have on the park travel and the
manner in which the horses will re-
ceive the motor-driven vehicles.
It 10 generally admitted that there
will be much trouble met with the first
few weeks. That this will be serious
is not admitted, because both drivers
and tourists will appreciate the cir
cumstances and use every effort to
avoid accidents. The great majority
of the roads in the park are wide and
safe. Where there are sharp curves
and canyons, dangerous places and
narrow roads, both auto1srs and driv-
ers of horses will be cautioned to use
every possible effort to make the trip
safe and the majority of the drivers
believe that their horses win soon be
accustomed to the autos.

PREPARES. SCHOOL REPORT.
Butte Superintendent Summarizes En-
roIIment and Attendance Stat
istics-contemplates Changes.

Butte.-Superintendent George F.
Downer of the Butte schools, In ac-
cordance with the new rules OF the
board OF trustees, has prepared his re-
port on the activities of the district
for the school year of 1914-15. The
report has been referred to the edu-
cational committee for consideration.
1t contains statistical summary of
the enrolment and attendance dur
ing the school year, review OF the
general progress OF the schools and
the recommendations of the superin-
tendent for the next school year. The
recommendations contemplate many
changes and will be read with interest
by patrons of the schools. On the
subject of the changes Superintsnd-
ent Downer says:
"The proposed changes, while new
to Butte, are in no sense radical.
They are, for the most part, those
recommended by the school survey
commission and are merely continu-
alton of our efforts during the past
recommendations as possible effec-
tive. With the exception of the in
termediate school, they do not add
to the cost of maintaining
the schools. 1t is true, however, that
the expense of supporting the kind of
public schools now demanded in
America is increasing and will prob
ably not materially decrease. Here
in Butte we have hardly started on
many new types of work, common
which add considerably to
school COSTS"

czARINA ESCAPED THE CROWD
Unwelcome Popularity Forced Wife Of
Monarch to Climb Ladder When
Recognized.

The czarina's popularity in Russis
has been enormously increased since
the war on account of the work thai
she has been doing for the Russian
Red Cross.
1t Is interesting to recall that hei
majesty once had an extraordinary ex
perience for royal parsonage while
on visit to Germany. She was out
shopping one day, attended only by
one lady companion, and she had
hoped to remain unrecognized by the
people. While she was making some
purchases in a jewelers. shop, how
ever, the news of her identity got
abroad, and in very few moments
there was a large crowd outside the
premises.
Exit through the front door was out
of the question, so the czarina asked
the jeweler to let herself and her COM
panion out of the back of the shop.
The jeweler replied that that was
impossible, as the back yard was in
closed by very high boarding which
would effectually cut off their re-
treat.
THAT does not matter" said the
empress. Get ladder and we will
climb over it,"
ladder was brought and the czar-
Ina and her companion rushed up it,
climbed over the boarding, jumped into
quiet street, and made their es-
cape as quickly as they could.
A minute later the jewelers. shop
window was smashed to atoms by
the surging and excitable crowd.-Re-

"The rainy weather has been about
the same elsewhere in the North
west" said Mr. Wheeler, but that
country can stand a lot of water. In
some sections where in ordinary sea-
sons liberal irrigation is necessary, this

MORE PUBLICITY FOR
THIS FERTILE VALLEY

In its editorial columns the Oklaho-
ma OklahoInan recently had the follow
ing complimentary mention of the big
dam of which every Salt River Valley

For four years water has been slow
ly climbing behind a massive granite
dam in Arizona. Now it pours over the
top and thousands of people are trav-
cling miles to see it. 1t is quite ordin-
airy water, but far from an ordinary
dam, and far from an ordinary occasion
that marks the flowing of stream
over its crest.
1T is the Roosevelt dam, built by the
United States government to redeem
thousands of acres of arid land Two
hundred and eighty-five feet the
mountain of granite rises from its bed
of rock !mpounding a lake twenty
miles long that has been slowly filling
since the completion of the dam in 1911
Lands hitherto useless will receive the
blessing of that imprisoned flood, and
add their contribution to the produc-
tivity of the southwest. In view of the
importance of the undertaking it need
surprise no one that ambitious natives
alrcedy propose to have the region of
the big dam set apart as national
park
The Roosevelt dam represents ma

of waste land into productive fields. at
