That native rodents cause heavy
losses both in cultivated crops and in
forage plants on the pasture and the
range has long been recognized. In
deed, after a careful calculation, the
biological survey has conservatively
estimated the losses in crops in the
United States at $150,000,0 annual
ly, and in forage plants on the open
range at like sum-a total annual
loss of $300,000,000 from this source
Nelson, 1918, p. 2, and 1919, p. 5;
Taylor, 1920, p. 283; Bell, 1921, p.
423). Determinations under controlled
conditions of the actual damage done
by rodents, either in cultivated crops
or on the open range, are, however
almost wholly lacking. The first pa

fects of rodent work. Around one SER
les of burrows within this inclosure a
circular area about 40 feet in diameter
had been almost entirely grazed eff
by the rodents. Fifteen or twenty
feet seemed to be about the average
radius of intensive prairie-dog dam
age, though it was evident that some
rodent grazing had been done over the
entire area. Outside the fences, where
stock had been grazing freely, the
grass was cropped short, resembling
its condition when the fences were
first installed.
Changes in the vegetation were
measured quantitatively by means of
five permanent quadrats, two in each
of the fenced areas and one outside.
These were charted every year at the
end of the growing season and one

such damage is that of w. T. Shaw
(1920), who made determination of
the destruction of wheat by the Co
lumbian ground squirrel (Citellus
ton. No comprehensive published re-
suits dealing quantitatively with ro-
dent damage on the open range have
been seen.
The difficulties in the way of this
kind of experiment, while not small,
are by no means insurmountable; and
it is believed that estimates of dam
age will be more accurate and con-
vincing when based on controlled field
tests. The difficulties include lack OF
information regarding the life histor-
les of the animals concerned; neces-

quadrat in each of the three plots clip
ped at that time and the crop of grass
weighed by species. The results thus
measured were striking, and show in
a very marked manner not only the
differential effects of rodent and cat
tie grazing, but the responses of each
of the grasses to such grazing (Pls.
v and VD.
In 1918, when the first three quad
rats were installed, the sand dropseed
(Sporobolus cryptandrus) was almost
extinct, appearing in only one of
them. This was due largely to it's
great palatability, both cattle and
prairie dogs seeking it and grazing it
to the ground at all times. The es-
tablished plants were holding on in
some measure by producing crop of

THAT Pain In
Our Northwest

Subscriber in Sidney Herald)
1t was with much amusement,
disgust and resentment the people of
the Northwest read Garet Garett's
article in the April issue of the Sat
urday Evening Post.
Amusement, because of the ignor-
ance Mr.. Garrett displayed.
Disgust, because of the audacity
of a man with his supposed business
insight and his lack of fair dealing.
Amusing, well-because it Is.
Resentment, because of the ignor-
ance he displayed in quotations on
actual conditions, as a whole, in the
states mentioned in his article. In
part he is correct, but as a whole, he
is absolutely wrong, and if Mr.. Gar
rett will come to Montana and take
his observations by making a com
plete canvass of all districts and com
ing into actual contact with the peo-
pie whom he has slandered in a most
brazen manner, look our great re-
sources over thoroughly, see what
Montana and her people have done
and are doing, instead of making his
observations from the records of
incompetent statistician, OF

from flax and corn produced from
the soil of some of the ''arid" dis
tricts ne has so carefully pictured to
the readers of the Saturday Evening
Post. | ask Mr.. Garrett, what would
he do it if were not for such states
as Montana, Minnesota, North Da-
kota and South Dakota, the wonder
full states against which you have
written?
The pictures he has shown in the
Post! We wonder how many germ
laden paper" dollars he paid for
them. He must have been, or hired
a very good scout to select just
those which would fit in we'll with
his article. One can go into any
state in the Union and find many
such places as he has shown. If it
were possible, l would appreciate
having Mr.. Gardett enjoy some of
the happiness contained in the home
of the nan "who is sticking it out
on his farm in the Montana Tri-
angle" (See page four, Saturday
Evening Post of April 12th). 1t
would no doubt surprise him to
know the amount of business that
has been done in the small isolated
banks, the pictures of which he has
caused to be shown and which per-
haps were owned and financed by
interests of his east.
Mr.. Garrett, Montana is one of
the very few states of the Union
if fenced and thrown entire
on her own resources, could live
in luxury and comfort and ask moth
ing from the outside. l include all
mined within her borders
such as gold, silver, copper, iron,
inc, etc. Coal, grain of every con-
ceivable kind, fruits, dairy products,
meats of all kinds, poultry and wool,
and building materials of ev-
cry kind and nature. Even tobacco
with the finest flavor. And wouldn't
YOU enjoy fishing in some of our
wonderful streams? And wouldn't
you enjoy shooting some of the
game, both large and small, which
abounds in our immense forests
and roams this "arid" land of
ours?
Shame be upon you, Garet Gar
-ett, for painting our wonderful
Northwest so darkly in the eyes of
he nation.
What will you have to say in
your next writing?

Chicago, April 20. - The most
unique travelling exposition in the
history of American ~railroading, con-
trasting a de luxe train of so years
ago with the modern newly built
all-steel passenger train of today is
to be made by the Great Northern
Railway. The exposition of these
two trains will begin in the Union
Station, Chicago, May IA, after
which they will proceed under their
own steam over the Burlington Road
to the Twin Cities, and thence on
to the Pacific Northwest in a trium-
plant procession, stopping n day
each in Fargo, Grand Forks, Spok-
ane Seattle and Portland.
Original Sleeping Car
The pioneer train of this exhibit
ton, manned by a crew of veteran
trainmen, will consist of the diminu-
tive William Crooks, the first loco
motive used on the Great Northern
Railway. This toy-like engine will
be "hitched up" to an antiquated
combination coach and the original
Pullman sleeper No. 9, which in its
day furnished Luxurious" sleeping
Accommodations for the most promi-
nent people Of the nation. Pullman
Sleeper No. 9 first went into service
in 1859. For many years this I'M
fque relic of the days Of Abraham
Lincoln has been kept on exhibition
at the Pullman works as a curiosity.
The spic and span all-steel train
that will furnish the striking "dead-
ly parallel" exhibited on a track
alongside the ancient carrier, is to
be one of the ten new Oriental Linn
tied trains, the last word of the
Master Car Builders art, fresh from
the Pullman shops where this equip
ment nov is in course of construc-
zion for service between Chicago and
the Pacific Northwestern cities be-
ginning June /.
Through Wolf Point
The two trains travelling together
on exhibition will arrive in Seattle in
time so that the modern Oriental
Limited train can u out of there

tai Limited service going east, the
same day the west bound Oriental
Limited service is i~naugurated out
of Chicago. 1t requires eight of

The State of Montana sends greet
ings to the above named defendants
and to each of them:
You are hereby summoned to ans
wer the complaint in this action
which is filed in the office of the
Clerk of this Court, a copy of which
is herewith served upon one Of you
in each county wherein any of you
reside, and to file your answer and
serve a copy thereof upon the plain
tiff's attorney within twenty days
after service of this summons, ex-
elusive Of the day of service; and in
case of your failure to appear or
answer, judgment will be taken
against you, by default, for the re-
lief demanded in the complaint.
Said action is brought to fore
close a real estate mortgage given

and Philip Courchene to the plain
tiff, on the NWA of Section Twenty
eight (28), Township Thirty-one
(31), North of Range Forty-seven

belonging or in any wise appertain-
ing, dated February 1st, 1918, and
recorded in the Office of the County
Clerk and Recorder of Sheridan
County, Montana, on February II,
1918, in book 164 of Mortgages on
pages 577-678.
And for the further purpose of
recovering a judgment against the
defendants Sarah Courchene and
Philip Courchene for the sum of
$531.42 besides interest at twelve
per cent per annum on $291.42 from
March Goth, 1924, on $4,000 from
December 1st, 1921, on $4,000 from
December LIST, 1922, and on $4,000
from December LIST, 1928; for $1,000

declaring the rights, titles, claims,
interests or liens of all of the defend
ants or any of them, in, to, or upon
said premises subject to plaintiffs
mortgage and any decree herein, and
for such other and further relief as
to the court may seem just and
equitable in the premises. All of
more fully appears from plain

Modern, Ancient Trains
Will Cross Continent

these Oriental Limited trains on the
road all the time to keep this trans
continental service going.
These trains will be on exhibition
two days in Chicago before they start
their journey across the continent.
They also will be shown in the Union
Station in St. Paul two days and two
days in the Great Northern Station
in Minneapolis.
Owing to an Act of Congress gov
erning safety appliances for public
carriers, the Great Northern Railway
is unable to use the old link couplers
on the pioneer train. Consequently,
this old train will have all its ante
dated equipment, with this exception.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion in sanctioning the exhibition of
these trains, stipulated that auto
matte couplers must be placed on the
old cars, so this replacement had to
be made to conform with the modern
day safety first law.

from a fast moving train, we viii
convince him that he is entirely
wrong, or has been misinformed, and
that he has done a great people and
a great country a very great injus-
tice.
What has the great Northwest
done for and against Mr.. Garrett?
For him, it has fed and clothed him
and is doing so now. Against him,
nothing. If one cannot speak well of
his neighbor, it seems better not to
speak at all.
The conditions which Mir. Garrett
has seer fit TO mention as existing
in this territory exists in practically
every state in the Union. Why he has
selected the Northwest on which to
vent his very damaging SANDER, the
people cannot conceive. There are
sections here which need eastern
capital and settlers to develop the
great Eastern capitalists,
after reading Garet CARROTS article
would naturally hesitate to invest in
a territory such as he would have
them believe this one is. Settlers
would hesitate to locate and cast
their lot in a country hampered by
conditions as he would have them be-
lieve exists in Montana.
I wish to call Mr.. CARROTS at
tention to some of the products and
resources of which we land the en-
tire nation should be- are proud.
First, the great fruit producing
districts of Montana. The fruit,
some of which, l have no doubt, he
has eaten with great relish, for our
fruit is shipped to all Eastern states
and cities. Also, he has probably eat
en- with great contentment many fine
juicy steaks and chops from some
of our Montana cattle, sheep and
hogs. The bread he consumes daily
undoubtedly is made of Montana
wheat which, by the way, grades far
better than that from any other
state. The wool in the clothing he
wears and the leather from which
his shoes are made, without doubt,
are made from the backs of sheep
and cattle that were bred and raised
on that vast grazing sections of the
