Through the efforts of such men as
A. B. Cook, Charles Wright, Tice
Lester H. Thompson and many Others
equally prominent, the Hereford in
dustry has been able to thrive, in
deed it has been their untiring eff
forts in behalf of the breed that has
put Herefords on the map in Montana
until today they are strongly in ia
vor and popularity with Montana
stockmen. Their adaptability to
range conditions, to rustic in all
kinds of weather, their early matur-
ing qualities and, when the final
test comes, their ability to top the
market are the factors that really
count in the cattle business today.
have been raising cattle in Mon
tana for some time, and have noted
carefully the different breeds, and
what attracted me to the Herefords
was their rustling ability, and early
maturing; how they would leave the
sheds long before daylight in a
snowstorm to rustic, leaving other
breeds in the shed for "sun up" /

Shorthorns, or native type, and by
comparison we're able to demonstrate
that the Hereford was the strain to
hold to for range purposes.
AS near as can be learned some
of the first herds of registered Here
fords to be brought into Montana
were owned by Childs of Helena,
Wright of Red Lodge, Tice of Logan
and Head of Helena. At first the
sales were slow, bulls selling at from
SIS to $85 per head and some of the
owners we're forced out of the pure
bred cattle business, but the Here
fords were gradually scattered about
the state, and, as could be expected,
firmly established themselves where
they were placed until they have de-

for shipment. About the same time
bunch of beef was taken from the
Grant herd in Deer Lodge valley and
driven to the San Francisco market.
Along in the 70's cattle began to
crowd the buffalo from some of the
choicest feeding grounds and as fast
as the latter disappeared, cattle herds
succeeded them until In the early

THE STORY OF THE CATTLE INDUSTRY I'M 1
MONTANA FROM DAYS OF THE LONGHORN
BY HAL b. IVES

The evolution in Montana of the
livestock herds from countless buff
falo to purebred and registered stock
is most interesting as only about so
years have elapsed since the first do
nestle cattle were brought into Mon
tana for range purposes, these in turn
improved by the infusion of pure
bloods and an industry built up
which alone might support a small
empire. In talking to old Cow men"
it would seem that few realize the
change that has taken place in the
past few years as they relate anec-
dOtes and "reminiscences of the early
days as though it were but yesterday.
Only the "oId timers have any
recollection of the original herds of
native livestock (buffalo) that graz
ed on Montana's great ranges and
few of the younger generation have
ever seen any of the species except
ing perhaps in the menagerie of some
travelling circus, but the early set
tiers can tell tales of the immense
buffalo herds which roamed the
plains, until the listener is almost in
clined to consider it an imposition on
his credulity; tales of the stoppage
of boats on the Missouri river to per-
NIT the buffalo herds to complete
their crossing and the mixing of the
buffalo and cattle herds on the
ranges.
Even in the early eighties the cat
tie outfits in the Judith Basin were
annoyed by the mixing of the buffalo |
with their cattle herds, and although |
It now seems almost incredible, yet |
It was not an uncommon occurrence |
Tor the cow boys to cut out buffalo |
from the beef herds when rounding
up the beef cattle for shipment. The
Indians had never been able to re-
luce the buffalo herds noticeably,
out the advent of the white man soon
effected a radical change, commenc-
ng with the hunter and prospector
Who used these animals for food and
port and because of their great
utilized only the humps
md the tongues, leaving the carcass
md hide for the coyotes and vul-
ures. Then came the realization

BLANKETS BORROWED As
YEARS AGO RETURNED

More than two score years ago, OF
to be exact, As, dad" Stout, then
located in Deadwood, S. D., loaned a
man, friend, two blue blankets, the
latter stating that when he got
through with them he would return
them. Recently Stout received two
good blue blankets from Deadwood
and while not the original blankets
he loaned As years ago he considers
them as good.
dad" is now resident of Miles
City, Recalling the circumstances of
the loan so many years ago, he stated
that the receipt of the blankets tes-
titled to the character and rugged
honesty of the man who lived with
him as a neighbor in the Black Hills
a half century ago.
He was simply astounded by the
sight of the blankets when they ar
rived. He recognized at a glance that
they were not the originals, for the
latter were of a pattern which are
not now seen on the markets, but
even though the new ones were of
later manufacture they were accept
able in reassuring him of the integ
rity of his old-time friend.
Searching his thoughts back to the
early days, he finally .centered upon
a happening in Deadwood in 1875
which recalled fellow prospector to
whom on his departure to Montana
he loaned a pair of blue blankets.
Profuse with thanks and saying bel
would surely return them when he
was through with them, he babe
goodbye to the prospector and came
On to the land of the sagebrush, leay-
ing behind the man to continue his
work of prospecting. Now, after a
apse of years, he finds the promise
fulfilled, with the exception that it |
IS not the same pair which are re-
.urned.
dad" feels that the fact that it |
las taken nearly half a century to
make good on his promise speaks
rolumes for the native honesty of the
of those early days in the
amous Black Hills, the home of Wild
Bill and Calamity Jane.
The circle banner. [volume] (Circle, Mont.) 1914-1939, 1920-05-28

that there was market for the hides
and the hide hunters commenced the
slaughter which completely annihil-
ated the vast buffalo herds, leaving
only immense piles of bones and
horns to mark the feeding grounds,
so that now there are but few sur
vivors, one of which is the herd in
the Yellowstone national park. This
herd was established to preserve the
species from utter extinction. An
attempt has also been made to cross
domestic cattle with buffalo, at one
time there being quite large herd
of this class in Missoula county. AS
late as 1888 buffalo were quite nu-
merous in Montana and then the re-
naming herds seemed to disappear
all at once, leaving herds of cattle,
horses and sheep on the ranges for
merly occupied by the buffalo.
There is some difference of opin-
ion as to just when and by whom the
first cattle were brought into Mon
tana and various old time stockmen
hold to many theories, but careful
investigation leads to the conclusion
that, beyond doubt, this occurred in
the early SOS, although the first herd
of any magnitude came to the state
about 1860.
There can be no question that the
first cattle brought into the state
were the property of Catholic priests
who came from California and Ore
gon between 1854 and 1857, bring
ing some small cattle of Spanish ORR
gin into what is now known as the
Jocko valley. At about the same
time, owing to Mormon trouble, a
of settlers from the Green
river country came into Montana
bringing with them some cattle they
had evidently secured through trad |
ing with emigrants en- route to Cali |
fornia, as these cattle were largely of
5horthorn stock from the farms of |
The Mississippi valley. Shortly after
hat time, man representing the
Hudson Bay company brought a
small herd of Spanish cattle into the
locke valley, and along in the late
'fifties" a small herd of cattle was
brought up the Missouri river on the
American Fur company's boats.
In 1860 John Grant brought in
wo herds of about 1000 head each.
Following closely after Grant came

profits in the cattle business were

the memorable winter of 1861 and
the joy was taken out of life. In
some instances entire herds of She
stock and calves literally disappear

20 to 95 per cent.

Mrs. Thomas Loughridge Dead

Mrs Thomas Loughridge, one of
the early pioneer women Of Montana,
who came to the territory in 1868,
died at her home in Bozeman after
a lingering illness, having been an
invalid for the past ten years. Soon
after her marriage in the spring of
1863 to Isaac Roe, they started across
the plains from Grinnell, Iowa in
August with OK teams, locating In
Bannack. Isaac Roe died in 1873
and his widow moved from Bannack
soon after her marriage to Thomas
Loughridge, which took place in
1880. They located in the Beaver
head valley, near where the city of
Dillon now stands, and resided there
until few years ago, when they
moved to Bozeman, where they have
