FAITHFUL DOGS
SUMMON HELP

Havre-John Lepache, ranchman
residing in the northern part of Hill
county, owes his life to his three
shepherd dogs. He was riding horse
back three miles from his ranch when
his horse stepped into badger hole,
and fell on him, breaking his leg.
He tried to crawl through the snow
to get help, but had progressed only
short distance when he lapsed into
inconsistencies. The dogs that were
with him seemed to recognize that
something was wrong, and leaving
him, trotted to the Kissel ranch, a
mile distance Their peculiar barking
and actions attracted Mr.. Kissel's at.
tention. He followed them to where
Lepache, half-frozen, was lying in
the snow.

CATTLE IN BIG HOLE
SHOWS SLIGHT GAIN

Dillon-Compared with the number
of stock in the Big Hole Basin year
ago, there has been a slight increase
in both cattle and sheep, according
to recent survey. At the present
time there are being fed for market
1878 beef steers ara COWS and 21,-
100 sheep. Other districts in the
county show a slight decrease over
the number on feed compared with a
year ago, but the animals are in bet
ter condition for this season than was
ever before known. Local stockmen
are confident that there will be a
gradual rise from the present low
market and that stockmen who hang
on viii gain more than if they drop out
while the market is at bed rock.
