Three times more that morning was the same performance repeated, except that only once more did I succeed Tn landing both fish. Having begun to fish at a quarter after six, l start ed for home at a few minutes be- fore eight with eleven fish that completely filled twenty-five pound basket.
 The morning had been bright and unusually warm for so late Tn the year, but in the afternoon came heavy wind, with dark clouds and few drops of rain. This cleared away, and again there was bright sunshine, accompanied by that de- lightful tang in the atmosphere not 0ften experienced anywhere except in the Rockies. The sun was fast sinking behind the Virginia range, at the foot of whose western slope lies Virginia" City, famous as gold camp in the last century. On the east side was the Gallatin Range, lighted up to the south with riot of gold and red and purple, while to the north, where the mountains were now in the shadow, appeared the softest and most beautiful blue [ have ever seen. One could but ex- claim. "This is the end of perfect day."

Erneriences of dn Arkansds Fisherman in
 Montana
Montana
c. c. Futrall in "The American Field.")

Early in August of this year, l received what appeared to be re- liable information that unusually good sport was to be had on the Madison River in Montana. Ac- cordingly in the latter part of the month, I collected my rod, reel and the rest of the fishing outfit and boarded the train. Three days later I alighted at Norris, Montana, the terminus of a branch of the North ern Pacific, and the northern gate way to the Madison Valley. The Madison is one of three beautiful streams that have their source Tn the Yellowstone Park and vicinity, running in a general northerly di- rection and uniting at Three Forks, Montana, to form the Missouri.
 Near the lower end of the valley is an immense lake formed by dam to furnish power to a large hydro electric plant further up the river, and only about twenty miles from the westeN entrance to the Park at Yellowstone station, is another dam, known as the Hebgen dam, also forming a large lake, from which water is let down to the lower lake as needed. Between these two dams is a hunters and fisherman's para dise-an overworked word in this connection, but the only one that seems to fit the facts. This section

Hogs which are fattened on these feeds should be fed corn for period of four to six weeks before placing on the market.
