SNOW O GONE
IN LITTLE BELTS
Plenty of Moisture Left, How
ever, Says Forest Super
visor Wiley.

There is plenty of moisture III the
mountains near Neihart. although the
SNOW is virtually gone and the pasture
in the forest grazing areas Is IN top
condition. according to w. B. Wiley,
supervisor of the jefferson National
forest. and E. j. Yeomans, assistant
supervisor. who returned Saturday
from a five-day cruising trip i'll the
Little Belt mountains. Mr.. Wiley left
Monday for Helena returning Tuesday.
Wiley and Yeomans camped on
Sawmill creek, about eight miles south
of Neihart and blocked cut 100 acres
of lodge pole pine timber. which they
appraised for a proposed government
sile for lath milling. II is high class
timber and the laths that have been
placed on the market from that sec
ton are rated as some of the best
on the market, the foresters announced.
There will be enough lodge pole
pine in the Little Belts to keep a lath
mill operating for many yeyars. they
said. The only lath mill operating IN
that section at present is a branch of
the Lewistown Lath and Lumber COM
pany now being operated in Neihart.
The roads between Great Falls and
Neihart are in excellent condition. but
there are a lot of mosquitoes 10 the
woods and tourists who contemplate
spending any time camping along the
way should 90 prepared with mosquito
netting or some kind of mosquito oil,

STRUGGLING WRITER PLANS BOAT TRIP
DOWN MISSOURI TO NEW ORLEANS

Time was when the ambition of every
hopeful author was to write the great
American novel. Whether they take
Main Street" TO have met their
hearts desire. or whether the fashion
of the times has changed, is not known.
but certain it is that the great ambi-
ton of modern authors has changed
according to l.. f. Jones. secretary Of
the Great Falls Commercial club.
Today. the high point in literary en-
deavor is. seemingly, TO make the trip
from Great Falls to New Orleans by
BOAT over the romantic Missouri and
the mighty Mississippi. Whether the
pocketbooks of the budding authors
grow faint long before the journey be
gins or soon after it gets under way.
or whether it is the heart that quaiis.
is not known. but never yet has one If
the writing gentlemen made the famous
trjp to receive the pl~ Idits Of the
awaiting lovers of adventure literature.
Every season, according to Mr..
Jones, the usual quota of authors ex-
press their Willingness to attempt the
hazardous journey. They range from
those who would make the trip in ca
noe TO more ambitious brothers who
would use households or motor boats.
A letter from one of the last kind

on the question at the state meeting

HAIL TAKES TOLL
OF COUNTY CROPS
Actual Damage Caused by
Storm Not Determined; Hot
Winds Hurt Prospects.

Reports of a hail storm, which swept
over part of Cascade county Friday
night destroying considerable spring
and winter wheat, have been received
by County Agent F. E. MacSpadden.
| although the extent of the storm and
the actual damage resulting from the
storm have not been determined, the
county agent said. j,
Farmers living in the Deep Greek
country have reported the loss of parts
of their grain crops and in some in
stances their garden products. The
effect of the storm in the Cashier
Coulee section. the Orr section and
the North Sun river bench has been re-
ported as severe.
When asked about general crop con-
ditions in the county Mr.. MacSpadden
shook his head solemnly.
"A week ago I'd have said that they
were great. the best in years and every
thing indicating automobiles and new
furniture for fhe farmers" he said.
Now that thought, generally speaking,
is only a memory. The luck broke
wrong. These hot days and the hot
winds have simply withered thousands
of acres of grain. All of the farmers
haven't lost out. buc there are a lot
whose hopes for good crops are fading
with every hour of sunshine and wind.
The hail storm was another body blow
that hurt
The grasshopper situation has not
changed materially either way, the
county agent said. With the co-opera-
ton of the farmers. the county agents
office has been able to scatter many
tons of poison that has checked the
first advance of the 'hoppers." The
fight against the "hoppers' will be
kept up for anoYler 10 days or two
weeks. After that they will be flying
and there is little to be gained by
scattering poison for them when they
commence their aerial p~fgrimages,
said Mr.. MacSpadden.

Rains Haven't Hurt
Y-G Bee Line Roads,
Wilsall Man Says

Rains Of the spring and summer
while making the roads rough, have not
greatly harmed highways in the south
ern part of the state. and much of the
Y-G Bee line is good, according to a
letter received by the Commercial club
from 8. s. Working, representative in
Wilsall. The letter received reads:
Great rains of the spring and sum
mer have made the roads rough be
cause they were not sufficiently
dragged. Bridges and culverts are in
good repair. The Yellowstone trail
part of the highway from the Shields
valley, IL or Is miles, into Livingston
is excellent. The balance Of the route
to Gardiner is fair to good. Crops
through the valley are fine and present
a very favorable appearance to the
motorist."
