VISITOR LIKE BOHEMIAN

Mr.. Charles E. Carlisle, who visit
ed in Bozeman for a time last sum
mer, was sto taken with the valley
and it's mountains that he recently
sent the following verses to a friend
here:
Bozemanl How beautiful art thouI
up
On the hights;-well toward thea
Zenith, where with colors
Ever changing, the circling
Mountains look down upon
And ever smile, smile, smile
Not frown;-Happy BOZEMANl
BOZEMANi A jewel fair, sits
On the heights;--up toward the
Zenith where towers the
Eternal hills, and varicolored
Mountains look down upon
And whose canyons pour forth
Natures own panacea for man,
beast and earth.
Smiling she sits upon her
pedestal, overlooking the fertile
GALLATIN VALLEY, where horse,
sheep
And kind thrive, and man
Looks upon the fair land, and
Laughs in quiet contentment,
Always feeling grateful to
The All Father for setting his lines
In so peasant spot, up! up so
Near the sky, where Purity dwells
supreme.

of elevator machinery. No decision
was given on this case, although
opinion is that the commission will
not find the delays chargeable to the
company.
Prof. w. o. Whitcomb and w. F.
Day of the state grain laboratory
were present at the meeting and were
consulted on different matters rela-
tive to the milling value of wheat,
particularly the moisture content. 1t
was brought out at the hearing that
many disputes arise over difference
of opinion over the value of wheat
because of its moisture content and
it was decided by the commission to
conduct a series of experiments in
an effort to get more definite infor-
nation on this subject. The commits
sion can then use the information
thus gained in making its rulings.

was consistent in his passing. Both
Robertson and Garvin played good
games, the former showing up better
than he has hitherto done. R. +.
Matter of Three Forks officiated at
both games.
For the Mines Kirchner and Land
wehr were two of the best men,
though the team was well balanced
anil played consistently throughout
both games.
In the first game the Bobcats got
lead Of to 0 before the Mines
began to score and then allowed the
Ore Diggers to run UP seven mark
ers, making the score to 4 ut the
end of the first half Coming back
after the intermission the Bobcats
played whirlwind ball for the first
I few minutes and won a lead that was
never headed throughout the game.
McCarren won three points by making
free throws. The Bobcats showed a
tendency to take long chances and
did not work the ball down the floor
as we'll as they should, the Miners
being easily superior to them in this
respect. The local team seemed to
tire after their squirt at the beginning
of the second half and appeared to be
out of condition.
In the second game Hollister broke
into the scoring column with the first
basket, to be followed by Whitney and
later by Garvin. Butte scored one on
free throw and then Kirchner, Land
wehr and Giulio each Gagged a field
basket, making the score to 6 al
the end of the first half. At the
beginning of the second half Kirchnel
: came in strong with two field baskets
that brought the Miner lead up Il
five points. McCarren put in free
throw and a few minutes later bOtl
: he and Garvin each shot a basket
tying the score. Landwehr connected
for two more points and then Hollis
ter alone took the ball the entire
length of the floor to tie the scort
again. Soon afterwards McCarrer
( dropped the ball in from almost tn
center of the floor, the longest sho
of the game and followed a minut
or so later with long one from
1 angle. McCarren took out time be
I cause of a wrenched knee. The ear
was going at good speed and Whit
ney put in another basket just befor
the whistle blew, making the fins
score 10 to 13.

DOVE SHOOTERS
MAY GET IN BAD
Federal Law Protecting Migratory
Birds Includes DOves.-Hunters
Better Beware.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 23.-Dove
hunters throughout Mississippi and in
fact the entire country, are warned
that the federal statute protecting mi
gratory birds include all doves, and
that it is unlawful to kill these birds.
Violators are liable to Indictment by
the federal grand juries. Attorney
General Fred Lotterhos has just com
pleted an investigation of the act Of
Congress and our treaty with Canada
as to their application to birds in this
state. The treaty protects all migra-
tory birds of certain species, includ-
ing those of the dove family, without
exception. One of the regulations is
in respect to mourning doves" and
permits them to be hunted and killed
between Oct. 16 and Jan. 81, with
bag limit of % birds. No other kind
of dove may be killed at any time.
The state law permits the killing
of doves from Aug. to March 1, but
the federal law is supreme. The COM
mon variety of doves in this state are
held to be included within the term
mourning doves" as used by the sec
retary of agriculture.

SHIPS MELON
TO KENTUCKY
Mr.. o. l.. Reeder Proves to Father
in-law That Mississippi Can Pro-
duce the Goods.

Mr. o. L. Reeder, the Main Street
harness manufacturer, has 4 father
in-law in Smith Grove, Ky, who says
Mississippi is the home Of many splen-
did people, but that the Magnolia
State cannot produce corn or water
melons.
Mr.. Reeder this week shipped to his
father-in-law a fifty-pound Tom Wat
son watermelon grown near Column
bus, and has invited the Kentucky
gentleman to make = trip to Low,ldes
County to see corn nearly as high as
a telephone pole.
When It comes TO producing, there
is no section on earth that mas richer
or more productive soil than Missis-
sippi. The fecundity Of the soil Of
the Magnolia State is unrivalled save
n the valley that annually is in
undated by the River Nile. There are
many states in the union where the
average. ordinary Mississippi dirt
would be used for fertilizer.

Pleased With improvements In
Conditions and Hopeful of
Outlook for Future Busi-

Columbus had the pleasure the pas
week Of entertaining two promineat
officials of the Mobile & Ohio Rail
road, Mr.. +. E. Norris, vice-presideni
of the system, and Mr.. Walter Ship
ley, freight and passenger traffic
manager. These gentlemen live in ST.
Louis, and were out over the road on
tour Of inspection.
While in Columbus, Messrs. Norris
and Shipley were guests of Mr.. j. l..
Cox, assistant traffic manager, who
showed them the various points of in
terest in and around the city.
Both Mr.. Norris and Mr.. Shipley
were we'll pleased with the appearance
of Columbus, and spoke of the inn
provements in evidence on all sides.
They have both been in Columbus
many times before and upon each sue
ceeding visit they see signs of con-
tinued and continuous improvement
Mr. Norris said he always enjoyed
his trips to Columbus, because of the
high class of our citizenship and the
cordiality of his reception, He has
many personal friends in our city who
are always glad to see him. Both he
and Mr.. Shipley are congenial, ap-
proachable men. They occupy exalted
positions in the railroad world, yet
are easy to approach and ever ready
to hear suggestions Tor the better
mont of the service.
Columbus is always glad to wei
come officials of the railroads, and
would respectfully suggest that should
Mr.. Norris and Mr. Shipley at any
time become dissatisfied with st.

pleased to have. them establish gem

not as large city as st. Louis, but
it is a much more pleasant place in
which to live.

circulars all over the Columbus ter
ritory advertising the trade exposi-
ton. The Mississippi State College
for Women will open on September
10th. The college girls will return to
take up their studies and with them
will come many parents. 1t viii be an
opportune time for the trade event.
One of the obligations of the mer-
chants will be the offering of at least
one bona fide, sure-enough bargain
during the week. They can give bar
gain in the same article each of the
six days, or they can give a differ
ent bargain each day, but each store
participating must offer something
for sale each day at price that makes
it genuine bargain.
Mr.. j. R. Manser, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, calls upon an
the people to cooperate in this event
1t is not for any special line of busi-
ness, nor for any particular busmes,
house, but for all the stores and all
the people. 1t will be community af-
fair, and everybody should unite in
making it huge success.
The trade exposition is in no way

purely business while the other is al
ogether social
