California Growers of Turkish Tobacco See Product Through to Final Markets.

Tobacco See Product Through tu
 Final Markets.
 Berkeley. Cal, Feb. s,--Growers of Turkish" tobacco in California gradually have extended the scope of their activity until now they deal with their product from the time it Is planted until, made into cigarettes, 1t Is placed on the market.
 The growth of this industry is traced in a paper issued by the agri- cultural experiment station at the University of California. Growing of Turkish" tobacco was begun in California about 25 years ago. But because of imperfect curing and difficulty of marketing. the business languished until about ten years ago, when it began to improve. Later the growers came to realize that they could obtain q better return by en- terins the manufacturing field them selves, and early in 1929 a company was organized 10 handle California grown Turkish" tobacco. The com pany is now finding n readss sale for its product.

Matonabbee, who could speak lit
tie English, and had some knowledge
of white mems ways. He was OF
great size, resourceful, and more
Trustworthy than most of the indians
of that region.
After Hearne had made known to
him his former attempts, Matonab-
bee pointed out the mistakes made
and how they could have been rectf-
fled. He said the most serious err
ror was not to take squaws along. In
his eyes they were not the delicate
creatures we have been taught to re-
gard them. Said he. Women were
made for labor; one of them can car
ry, or haul, as much as two men can
do. They also pitch our tents, make
and mend our clothing: and, in fact
there is no such thing as travelling
any great distance or for any length
of time in this country without theii
assistance. Though they do every.
thing, they are maintained at trifl-
ing expense; for as they always
stand cook. the very licking OF their
fingers in scarce times is sufficient
for their subsistence.
This was the substance of Nation.
abbee's advice, and although 1t is Civ
en- under quotation marks, 1t is ex-
tremely doubtful whether the Ian.
guage in which 1t was expressed, was
his. Be that as 1t may, he volunteer
ed to act as guide for Hearne.
Provisions Run Low.
Although their route would even.
tually lie through the Barren Land
lit would have been suicidal, at this
season of the year to have entered II
lat once. Yet. although they turned
westward, their way led them fol-
some distance through barren coun.

wit hthem, depending upon cache
of Matonabbee's, which, when reach.
ed, was found to have been pillaged

In state Of semi-starvation for ter
days. What made this state of at
fairs more serious for Hearne, he
was well aware that the Indians, In
times of famine were reduced to prac-
ticing cannibaiism. 1t is bad enough
to have nothing to eat; 1t Is worse to
consider in addition the possibility
of being eaten.

Leader of Minnesota
Indian Tribe Pleads
For Rites of Pagans

John stilI Day, s'mcdicine
man. representing 400 pagan In
dians on the Red Lake reserva-
ton near the Minnesota~Canada
boundary line, protested against
efforts OF the Indian bureau to
abolish old tribas customs when
he recently appeared before the
senate Indian affairs sub-commit-
tee during Its Investigation at Min
ncapoiis.
Mention had been made to the sub
committee that the tribal dances
were detrimental to Indians crops,
and that they interfered with the
educational work among the young
err members OF the tribes.
Still Day is tall, handsome Chip
pewa fullblood. He did not wear the
garb OF the tribal header but APP
peared In the attire of the white man.
Speaking through an interpreter he
told the committee that he was not
the chief nor the great speaker, but
protested against the white mans
efforts to take away my religion"
TO the statement that the pagan
Indians corn and potatoes were
the worst In ten years because there
have been too many tribal Dances"
StiIl Day replied that the Indians
were not responsible for the cold
weather and too much rains.
The pagan band lives In q place
isolated from the rest OF the Red
Lake Indians, and It's members still
indulge In the ancient tribal dances
which frequently last two or three
days.

ELK FLEEING FROM
PARK THREATENED
WITH SLAUGHTER
EMPHASIZES NEED OF PRESERVE
TO PREVENT HUMILIATION
OF WYOMING GAME
Jackson Hole Upper Reaches Would
Make Ideal Winter Range to Save
Moose, Antelope, Elk and others;
Slaughter Threatened.

Recent press dispatches from
wyoming cities, should interest
every big game ioer in the West.
for they emphasize once again the
imperative need of action to pre-
serve the last big game herds. The
dispatch tells how elk, driven from
the highlands of Yellowstone park
and the surrounding region by the
early winter storms of great Sc
verify, are pouring into Jackson
Hole In Wyoming for shelter and
food.
These animals are falling prey to
wholesale slaughter by hunters, and
Wyoming authorities are considering
the advisability of closing the hunt
ing season to save them.
II the elk, moose and antelope now
protected within the Yellowstone
park and the forest reserves ada
cent to It are to be saved from ex-
termination: If the big game is not
to disappear, TO be known In future
only In museum specimens. pictures,
and the stories of "old-tlmers. con-
gressional action is needed TO pro-
vide a guarded winter range For,
every winter these animals, facing
starvation In the snowscovered re-
gions OF the park whe2e snow drifts
too deeply to permit them to paw for
their food, flee to the low lands.
There they perish by the thousands.
The yearly loss depends upon the se-
verify of the winter. In mild winters
not so many come out, but severe
storms always send them stampeding
into the hole. There they are shot
by hunters and many are literally
dubbed to death by ranchers. who
kill neither for food nor sport. but
to protect their hay stacks 1t is
no uncommon sight to see slaught-
cred elk lying beside a rancher's hay
stack, beaten down with club and
left there.

Several suggestions have been
made for converting into winter

little, narrow guage railroad, was
building into Montana, and Dillon
was the first terminus of Importance
created In the territory. Here con-
struction work rested for the first
winter and from all parts OF south
ern and eastern Montana came large
freighting teams to load at this point
freight brought that far by rail.
Butte depended upon this town for
freight, as also did Bozeman, Deer
Lodge, Missoula, Virginia City and
many other mining points which were
then prominent centers Of popula-
ton In the territory.
For many year before that time the
entire territory, with the exception
of that part supplied from the river
boats at Fort Benton, depended on
the Union Pacific and Central Pac-
ific roads for its supplies. For a
long time the nearest point from
which shipping was done was Cor
rhine, Utah, on the Central Pacific
road. During the early seventies,
and until the Utah & Northern start
ed to build towards Montana in
1873, Corinne was the point from
which nearly all the freight was sent
to Montana towns.
At that time, Corinne was a strag-

yTy HERE are many stories extant OF
the search for gold; for precious
l. stones; and hidden treasure;
and they never lose their interest to
the average person; but none OF these
are more romantic than the adven-
lures of Samuel Hearne, who sought
a copper mine,a the request or conl-
mand of the Hudson's Bay company.
For a long time the Indians were
known to be In possession of various
sized pieces OF virgin copper, that
they exhibited at the company's trad
ing posts. When asked where they
found it they had marvellous tales to
relate of river directly north of
Montana emptying into the Arctic
ocean. There" said they, Jumps
OF copper are as plentiful as boulders
on beach"
Several attempts had been made
to find this river, but unnecessarily.
In 1919, Captain Knight eighty years
of age sailed northward with two
ships In search of it, but was ship
wrecked south Of Chestermild Inlet,
and the fate of himself and crew was
not known until fifty years later.
Sent to Locate Copper.
The failure of this voyage of dis
covery, decided the company to send
Samuel Hearne overland In search of
the coveted metal. This was in 1860.
Twice Hearne set out, and was forced
to rteurn to the fort from which he
started. Undiscouraged by these
fruitless journeys. he left Fort Prince
of Wales on the western shore of
Hudson Bay, with small party of
Chippewyan Indians, December Z,
It'll, and bent his course northwest
ward.
Hearne had seen much OF the
world during the twenty-seven years
of his life, having served In the Brit
ish navy, and been In many battles
of the French and Indian war. For
come time he had been an employe
of the Hudson's Bay company, trad
Ing with Esk.mos along the coast
north of Churchill river He was an
Englishman as most of those living in
this country at that time were proud
to style themselves.

was fortunate In securing the coop
