Contracts for 10000 Montana lambs
at 9h cents a pound have been made
by a single buyer, according to Senator
B. c.. White Of Buffalo, who was in
Great Falls Wednesday.
The statement that he had contract

lambs was made to Senator White. he
said. when the buyer visited him on his
ranch with the purpose of taking his
lamb crop. With 7O-pound lambs.
these contracts would total in excess
of 100000.
Senator White said that from every
point of view the situation of the

aged by the excellent prices on con-
tract sales. With good range and a
fine lot of lambs, it 10 most encourag-

LATH COMPANY
MAY GET WOOD
OF GOVERNMENT
Quarter Section on National
Forest May Be Sold to
LeWiStOwn Firm.

One hundred and sixty acres of for
est land in the jefferson national for
est. three miles south of Kings hill
above Neihart. may be sold to the
Lewistown Mill & Lath company, &C.
cording to z. J.. Yoemans. assistant
supervisor of the forest. This viii
mean approximately $4,000 cords OF
wood. for which the government viii
ask from IS to 90 cents a cord.
This supply would keep the saw mil
company running for five years. and
il is understood that an official of the
firm is already in the East. making
contracts for the sale of the finished
product and financing the job.
The timber in this district is chiefly
of lodge pole and of the age which ii
is better to cut. The returns from the
sale will be turned over to the secre-
tary of the treasury and Their relayed
into allotments for roads, schools, etc
The appraisement of the timber was
made last June by Mr.. Ioemans and
W. B. Wiley. Jefferson national for
est supervisor. who spent some time
on the grounds. The findings Of this
inspection have been forwarded to the
head forestry office for this section in
Missoula, and word should be received
any day.
Although it is o standing rule that
no timber should be cut for 30 days
after the decision has been made so
as to allow time for advertising the
sale. it is thought that this may be
considered an emergency case because
of the season.
To take care of this timber more
adequately. il is believed that the
Lewistown company will construct a
mill somewhere near the location. 1t
now has a mill erected nearer Nei-
hart, where ii has done some work be-
fore.
Probably 40 men will be- employed in
the mill and the forest. Motor trucks
will probably be used to convey the
logs to the mill. 1t is understood that
q strip Of timber will be left along
the road so as not to destroy any of
the scenic views along the Y-G Bee
line route.
