H. H. Brown of Whites Bend,
was in the Office Monday. Mr..
Brown is in receipt of a letter
from his brother. Luke, who
owns and operates ranch near
Ringing. Montana in which he
relates some interesting happen

one. however, was the capturing
of a young bear on the ranch
not long ago. and bringing it in
home alive. A stunt, which he
says is seldom pulled off in that
country. He said the bear gave
him a pretty stiff fight, but
with the assistance of his pony
and dog, he managed to lasso
the rascal and drag him home
alive.
When he came in home, he
said his wife had become uneasy
about him, and had about de.
cided that the bear had devoured
the whole outfit.
He states that the bear is
about two years old. and is a
splendid pet.
We would like to swap a years
subscription to a small piece of
