HEAT KILLS 100 STEERS
SHIPPED FROM WYOMING

Over 100 head of fine Hereford
steers, worth approximately $1,000,
being shipped from Cody, Wyoming,
to point near Cut Bank, died after
their arrival in Great Falls, from ex-
posure to the gruelling heat and lack
of water. The animals were the pro-
perty of l.. G. Phelps, the Wyoming
stockman, and were part of ship
ment of 1000 head of steers that
were being taken to the northern
ranges.
Phelps says the cattle We're trailed
for four days from his Wyoming
ranch to Cody, and were in fine shape
when they were driven aboard the
cars. He says the train was held up
at Mossmain, the junction of the
Great Northern and Burlington roads,
due to the derailing of locomotive,
the heat that they suffered wore them
out and when they got down in the
cars they did not have sufficient
strength to get up again.
Superintendent Votaw of the
Northern Pacific says the stock were
on the cars only SO hours from Cody
to Great Falls. He says that he is
informed that they were not watered
for day before they were loaded at
Cody, and that they did not have wa
ter until they reached Great Falls.

Although spring got a late start
throughout Montana-that was be-
fore the dry spell started in-and
as consequence there will be an
abundance of water fowl for the
shooters who will be given the chance
to try their skill September Is and
quit December /.
Game Warden DeHart has been re-
ceiving reports from his deputies and
from members of gun clubs over the
state and all are most optimistic. In
deed, it is claimed that lakes like Red
Rock and Bowdoin and Lonesome
lake have larger hatch of native
ducks this year than for many years
past.
Shore Birds Plentiful.
Not only is there good report on
water fowl, but the shore birds,
which include sage hens, prairie
chickens and grouse, are plentiful,
according to observers. In Dawson
county, it is said, there were never so
many sage hens. The upland plover
appears to be doing a comeback this
year also. The season on shore birds
in Montana is from September Is to
October l.
The fishing is good, too. Anglers
report good catches practically from
all streams and lakes formerly re-
sorted by the fishermen.
Altogether the sportsmen of Mon
tana have a good season to record in
1917.
State Law Goes.
There has been an extension of
time by the federal government in re-
lation to the migratory game birds,
shooting being permitted up to Jan
uary /. Formerly the time limit was
December /. The season starts Sep
tember Is.
Game Warden DeHart says, how
ever that the state law will apply to
Montana shooters and therefore the
open season for waterfowl will close
December 1. The federal authorities
agree as to that and in no way inter-
fere with the state laws. In other
words, where there is difference in
time, the state law takes preference.

HOW 1T WAS DONE.
EntOmologist Seamans Commends
Farmers and Business Men OF
Threatened District for Their
Work; How the Fight Was Fin.
anced; Some Government Aid.

The work of farmers in the west
grasshopper pest has been wonder
fully effective, according to Howard
Seamans, assistant state entomologist
who has just returned to Bozeman
from the Flathead country, where he
has been in charge of the battle
against the grasshoppers. He says
the grasshoppers have been controll-
ed with but little damage to the
growing crops, and commends the
farmers and business men of that
section for the manner IN which this
successful fight was made.
Had the grasshoppers in Flathead,
Missoula, Sanders and Lincoln coun-
ties been permitted to develop un-
checked this season, there would not
have been left green thing in the
district affected by the middle of
July, in the opinion of Mr.. Seamans.
1t is estimated that the damage
would have mounted to one million
bushels of wheat besides the great
quantities of other spring grains, al
falfa and native pastures tnat would
have been destroyed
Work Started EARLY.
Poisoning experiments were con-
Quoted early in the spring to ascer-
tain when the grasshoppers reached
the state to be most effectively over

that when the poison was spread
while the hoppers were young the
results were not good. When the
time appeared to be ripe, Judging
from the experiment work, the farm
ers organized for their big poison
drive.
Working in cooperation the farm
ers about Poison cleared the hoppers
from the Irvine flats and Valley View
in three days. They used Is canvas
sheets, mixing up 800 pounds OF
bran on each sheet. Altogether in
this one movement they used about
SO tons of bran, three tons of arsenic
and three tons of salt.
When the poison had been mixed
the farmers lined up 20 wagons on
line and drove directly across the
fields, each wagon carrying load OF
the poison bran and man to scatter
it. 1t was found that each Wagon
could conveniently cover a swath o1

assigned to place the poison bran or
