LONESOME CHARLEY" REY.
NOLDS, CLUSTERS SCOUT
o. Western Newspaper Union.

Many noted scouts served with Gen.
eral Custer during his Indian cam
paigns, but his ~favorite of them all
vas Charles Reynolds, known as
Lonesome Charley" In the early
seventies, Reynolds was a hunter for
the garrison at Fort Rice, N. D. He
was a quiet little man who lived
much to himself and preferred to
hunt alone. no matter how many hos
tile Indians were lear. Because of
his disregard for human companion
ship. he became known by everyone
as Lonesome Charley"
Reynolds first served under Custer
In the exploration of the Yellowstone
country In 1873. During his expedi-
ton two ~inoffensive civilians with
Clusters command were murdered by
the Indians. The next year, while
Reynolds was attending a u dance
of the Sioux near Fort A. Lincoln,
N. D., he heard a young chief named
Rain-in-the-Face boast of the murder
of the two men. Charley reported this
to Custer and Rain-in-the-Face was
arrested and imprisoned. Later he
escaped and sent back his now-famous
VOW of vengeance Of the whole Custer
family.
Lonesome Charley" was with Gus
ter during the exploration of the
Black hills In 1874. When gold was
discovered. at Clusters request he
rode $50 miles, through a country
swarming with hostile Indians to Fort
Laramie, Wyo., in 4S hours and gave
to the world the first news of the
discovery, causing a stampede of min
ers into that region.
When Custer started on his last
campaign against the Sioux in 1876,
Reynolds was offered the position Of
chief guide.
When the Seventh cavalry left the
steamer Far West, Reynolds vas Ill.
Capt. Grant Marsh of the Far West
tried to persuade him not to go with
the expedition since he was In no
condition to do any fighting. Reynolds
refused.
I've been waiting and getting
ready for this expedition for two
years, captain, and I'd rather be dead
than miss it." he said earnestly. So
he rode away to his death.
When Custer divided his command
to attack the Sioux on the Little Big
Horn, the scout was sent with Major
Reno. The Indians swept down upon
Reno and forced him back to the
wooded bluffs across the river. Lone
some Charley was killed In this re-
treat. His body was found surrounded
by go empty cartridge shells. He had
died fighting.

they do. In any event, however,
tere is nothing in the world to pre-
vent any dealer or grower from put

competitive markets of the nation
are open to you.
In conclusion we wish to correct
certain statements that have been
made regarding the operation of the
present system of Idaho state inspec-
ton. Our prejudices have been ap-
pealed to by representations that our
inspectors were a species of para
site, being supported by the Idaho
farmers by way Of added taxation.
We want to state once and for all,
that the tax payers of Idaho have
never contributed one dollar toward
the support of our inspection system.
The dealers of the state pay fee
of $3.50 per car, and the service is
and has always been self support
ing. We do not know Of any legiti-
mate dealers who has ever passed
this charge on to the grower either
directly or indirectly. In many in
stances we are able to pass this
charge on to the buyer of the car
at the other end, who is willing to
pay this much premium to be as
sured that he is getting a car OF
U. s. No. l potatoes. Otherwise we
consider 1t as part Of the expenses
OF doing business. and feel that 1t is |

Plan League Convention
For Neihart July $40

The making of definite plans are
under way for the state convention OF
the Epworth league to be held at Nei-
hart on July 3 to10, and indications
are that there will be a good attend
ance of League members at the meet
ing, according to reports at the con-
ference of the league officers held in
Great Falls the latter part oflastweek.
Many will make the trip by automo-
bile, while the railroads have offered a
fare and a half for those who make
the trip by train. Tents and cots to be
rented by the delegates have been ar
ranged by the state association.
The convention, which takes the
form of a summe outing, has for sew
eral years past been held at Wolf
Creek, but last year steps were taken
by local delegates for a permanent
summer camp and convention place
near Camp Rotary, near Neihart,
which was decided upon. Later the
town of Neihart was decided upon,
and the first meeting to be held there
next month is looked forward to with
a great deal of interest, in the belief
that the new site will prove more at
tractive than those utilized in the past.
The people of Neihart have planned
q big Fourth of July celebration for
the entertainment of the League dele
gates.

First Round
Mining Claim Assessment
Must be Done Before July |

Under the change of time for rep
resenting mining claims, which has
been advanced from January to July,
the date of expiration is rapidly APP
preaching and is causing claim owners
of Cascade county to get busy.
All claims represented before July
1, 1921, must be again represented
before July /, this year of 1922. If
representation work was done after
July l of the value of 500 for each
claim, then the claim or claims so
represented have been properly
represented and work on them need
not be done this year. The time limit
is just the same as it was before when
the date was from January to Janu-
airy. The date has simply been ex-
tended six months, or until July /, at
monday, when the time limit expires.
Taking into consideration the law,
claim owners who are DESTROYS of
holding their mining claims are get
ting very active and are making due
preparation for the annual assessment
work.

Make Experiments
With Forage Crops

Among the crop demonstrations be.
ing conducted this year in the county
the Iodine clover experiment is one
of the new introductions which may
be of the greatest Importance, ac-
cording to County Agent f. K. Mac
Spadden. r. A. Broekings of Simms
has a small plantation of this new
Glover, which a very large form of
the common white clever so abundant
in blue grass pastures and lawns
throughout the United States. In
every respect the Iodine clover is sim
liar to the ordinary white clover ex-
cept that in favorable locations it
grows 10 to 20 inches high and is two
to four times larger in all its parts.
The stems lie flat on the ground and
take root at the joints, but the leaves
arise IN long leaf stalks and it is
these that are harvested.
The plant is a native of northern
Italy where it has long been used for
pasture and hay in the rich river val
ley adjacent to the city of Lodi, from
which it derives its name. 1t was
introduced into the United States by
the department of agriculture in 1903
and has now been tried experimentally
in nearly all parts of the country. In
the majority of cases it has made a
very gratifying growth and it appears
likely that The plant VIII prove a-vaIu-
able pasture plant in the localities to
it is adapted.
Extended culture of the crop has
been limited by the fact that it seeds
very sparingly in the eastern states
and dependence has had to be placed in
high priced seed imported from Italy.
Recently, however, very good crops of
Iodine clover have been produced in
Idaho and sufficient seed for domestic
use viii probably be available before
Iong at a reasonable price.
A well managed Iodine clover pas
.ure will carry from 80 to 40 per cent
stock than alfalfa, red clover,
alsike clover or ordinary white clover,
and 80 per cent more than blue grass.
On irrigated land in Idaho many pas
.ures are carrying the equivalent of
head of mature stock per acre for
J 1-2 months. In irrigated sections
he carrying capacity of a Iodine pas
,ure is increased If the field is di-
yided into two parts and one part
while the other part is being
vatered.
Among other demonstrations being
onducted are those of Jude Huber of
Belt, who has a pure seed plots of
Iannchen barley; of Dakota White
flint and Pioneer White Dent corn.
". V. Talbot of Upper Belt has a
ield Of Montana SO" winter wheat,
.rown from registered seed. This is
ecognized as one of the best of the
varieties.
Byron Cramer of Fife has a demon
tration of Banner oats, the second
yielding oat under dry land tests
or this section. VIM. Junkermeier of
Irmington, John Marn of Belt, and
!. P. Corithers of Calvert also have
ield demonstrations of Pioneer White
corn, and an experiment or a
ive-acre alfalfa field is being con-
ucted on the farm of II. b. Mitchell
ear Great Falls. The field was treated
nth sulphur at the rate of 100 pounds !.
acre in a test to see if 1t would in !
rease yield and leaf growth. :
