From 1000 to 1,500 bales of cotton will be marketed from that portion of the county this year, considerable of which would ordinarily go to Selma, on account of no direct rail con- nections. none of 1t would reach De- mopolis unless unusual means were used to get 1t here.

WINTER TlCHTENS UP
WIDESPREAD STORM

The course of the moderate winter
Montana has been enjoying was ru-
dely interrupted the past week by
some sharp weather and a blizzard of
some proportions. 1t was nothing
like the old time blizzards they tell
about but was quite creditable eff
fort at one. The wind and snow came
from the east the greater part of
two days and made roads of all
sorts difficult. Trains were delayed
and country folks were kept at home.
The temperature was not low during
the snow storm but is ranging down
ward today. The storm was general
and severe cold is reported at many
points.
The storm was worse in eastern
states. In Minnesota, railroads were
badly drifted, and disastrous wreck
between a snow plow and passenger
train, near Willmar, is reported.

MOTOR skis VIDA
MANS RIG SUCCESS
PROPELLER LIGHT MOTOR, 4
STRIPS OF WOOD-SPEED
30 OR BETTER

About the most interesting vehicle
that has been seen in this city was
Ed Krebsbach's motor sled in which
he and Carl Jensen came from Vida
last Friday.
This ingenius machine, which was
built by the Vida boys with the help
of the Vida blacksmith, does not de-
pend, as do some motor sleds, on
surface traction, but uses a five-foot
propeller to take a grip on the brac-
ing winter atmosphere and yank it
self across the snow.
1t is built on the motor sled idea
but is improved by the snow riding
qualities of a double pair of ordin-
ary skis and the powerful, light
weight motor used in Harley Da-
wilson motor cycle. The whole rig,
which carries two passengers, weighs
less than $50 pounds and easily makes
80 miles an hour. 1t doesn't need a
broken road as it can skim over the
snow covered prairies almost any
place. Mr. Krebsbach says there are
several particulars in which he can
improve his invention, but eventual
ly he expects to have very speedy
and practical outfit for winter travel.
Steering he found to be one of the
greatest difficulties and while here he
had the Wolf Point Machine Shop
put a pair of narrow steel shoes un-
der the front skis, that improved his
machine greatly. Mr. Krebsbach and
Mr.. Jensen left for Vida Sunday noon
across the river bottom at
a pace that was easily equal to any
ordinary automobile on good read.
