COCKLEBUR CAUSES SOME
LOSSES TO SHEEP GROWERS

The common weed known as cock
lebur vas responsible for consider
able sheep losses in Rosebud county
during the months of June and July,
according to a report from DR.. How
ard WEIGH, veterinarian at Montana
State College to r. B. Mercer, county
agent. DR.. Welch found the weed
prevalent in all sections where losses
occurred and vigorous eradication
campaign under the direction of the
county agent put an end to the
trouble for the remainder of the
season. The banks of streams and
bitches were favorite places for the
weed. DR.. WEIGH explained that
cocklebur is only poisonous during
its very early growth, at the time
when the first two leaves appear.
In the sections where the losses oc-
Cured new plants kept coming on
during the season as the water in the
streams became lower. Thus the
poison season was extended over a
considerable period of time.

Quartz Find
Ruins AS High AS
$ll8,OOO Inn Gold

With a small box containing a
dozen pieces of quartz literally
sprinkled with coarse gold, one
button containing $1,000, melted
from an ounce and a quarter piece
of ore, and an assay from other
samples that returned values of
$188,000 in gold to the ton, E. A.
Morley of the Red Mountain Hy-
draulic placer recently returned to
Butte from the Rimini property
jubilant over the recent find which
may develop into an exceedingly
rich quartz mine.
The Red Mountain placers ac,
quired a few years ago by Mr.. Morley
Charles Hewett, Frank Winger anc
other Butte men, is located between
Butte and Helena and is a few miles
from Rimini, where the famous por-
phry dixie is located. Last season
the cleanup on placer was highly
satisfactory, and this year the opera
lions were greatly increased.
Mr.. Winger found in one of the
placer sluices a piece of quartz which
literally sprinkled, with gold. A
search of the sluices brought a
score of rich quartz specimens to

Congress opposed to any dealings be-
tween the Federal authorities and the
states which did not possess funds
with which to match the Federal
grants.
Other speakers emphasized the
fact that the 1922 legislature Grip
pied Federal Aid plans in Montana by
putting state road funds in the hands
of the several counties. The records
showed that Montana counties last
year had about 100000 of Mon
tana road funds, and that less than
20 per cent of these funds had been
used to match Federal Aid.
It was also shown that by giving
the state half the auto license tax
and all of the gas tax arrangements
could be made to match the states
share of Federal Aid in the next two
years, and build many miles of good
road for the state.
Chairman George Lanstrum of the
State Highway Commission declared
at this meeting that if provision we're
not made for a state highway fund
with which to match Federal Aid in
the next two years, there would be
little else for the State Highway
Commission to do but wind up pres
ent contracts and go out of business.
1t was for the purpose of render
ing assistance in the solution of this
grave problem that the Montana
Good Roads and Automobile Associa-
ton was formed.

STATE FARMERS TO BENEFIT
FROM CREDIT CORPORATION

Farmers of Richland county will
receive some benefit from the Agri-
cultural Credit Corporation, organ
lied last spring at the request of
President Coolidge by business men
of the east and middle west. Di-
rectors of the corporation have
agreed to loan money to farmers of
the county for the purpose of buy
ing small bands of sheep and for
securing pure bred sires. Further
financial assistance will be extended
to those farmers needing it by John
Clay & Co., commission merchants
of Chicago for the purpose of stimu-
lating lamb feeding in the county
Agricultural observers see in these
offers by eastern interests a renewed
faith in farming prospects in Mon
tana.

President Sid j. Coffee of the
recently organized Montana Good
Roads and Automobile association
has named the following Executive
Committee of seven to direct the
activities of that body with parti-
cular reference to seriously needed
legislation to provide state high
way funds for Montana:
Andrew j. Davis, Butte; A. J.
B~reitenstein, Great Falls; w. E.
Dowlin, Billings; P. N. Bernard,
Kalispell; VIM. G. Ferguson, Hell
ena; H.. 0. Bell, Misoula; and George
j. Weideman, Lewistown.
This committee has been request
ed to use it's greatest efforts in be-
half of the movement for Montana
state highways, moulding public
opinion in their districts and where
aver else they can, in favor of the
proposals adopted atthe recent meet
ing in Helena 1T which this organ
ization was perfected.
President Coffee states that a
meeting of the executive committee
will be held in the near future for
the purpose of outlining definite
steps to be taken throughout the
state by the Montana Good Roads
and Automobile association.
This organization grew out of a
meeting of the State Executive Good
Roads Committee held at Helena,
August 4, called by Chairman Sid J..
Coffee to discuss the urgent neces-
city of immediate steps to insure the
enactment of laws at the forthcoming
session of legislature, such laws as
will provide a state highway fund
with which to match and thus save
Montana's share of Federal Aid road
funds.
There were present at this meet
ing representatives from Butte,
Great Falls, Billings, MissouIa, Hell
ena, Livingston, Kalispell, Bozeman
and Whitefish, as well as other state
centers.
Congressman Scott Leavitt in
formed the delegates that he had
tried in every possible way to Sc
cure as much Federal assistance as
possible. The Cotton Bill was de-
signed to give states of small popula-
ton, such as Montana, practically
one hundred per cent Federal Aid
on primary system roads, he said.
The Dowell Bill, which would be i'm
portant to Montana, was expected to
pass quickly at the next session of
Congress.
But, the Congressman declared,
Montana must have a state highway
fund, and all of the gas tax should
be in that fund. He stated that
there was a growing sentiment
among the good roads leaders in

night, their course marked by the
slain and wounded. Babies were
shot, and women who, exhausted
sat down to rest, were mercilessly
slaughtered. One of the womer
killed was the daughter of Dull
Knife, who was carrying another
woman's child.
Some reached the hills and hid
in holes in the rocks. Most OF
these were killed. Sixty-five were
captured, and taken back to the
post. The next day soldiers with
six mule teams were sent out to
bring in the dead. About fifty
were found.
Grinnell says, "The dead were
brought in and unloaded like dogs.
The soldiers got into the full wa
CONS and standing on the bodies
took the frozen corpses by the
heads and feet and tossed them to
the ground. After a wagon was
partly unloaded, men standing on
the ground reached in, took the
bodies by the feet or head, dragged
them out and let them drop to the
ground"
The captives once more in the
post, Captain Russell came to them
and asked, "Will you go south?"
A girl wounded in the foot arose,
and leaning against the wall an
swered for the rest: mo, we will
not go back; we will die rather.
You have killed most of us, why do
you not go ahead and finish the
work."
Fifteen of the escaped Indians
we're pursued by the soldiers, and
finally took refuge in a buffalo wal
low. The troops surrounded them
and kept up a fire allday, killing all
but three women. When these
fifteen were first overtaken, Cap
tain Vessels asked the interpreter
to demand their surrender. The in
terpreter replied that he did not
like to do so.
"Are you afraid?" asked the Cap
tain.
Eyes, | am afraid; but I will go
if you command me to-" replied the
interpreter. He went to the edge
of the wallow, and Captain Vessels
accompanied him, when a shot from
the Indians passed between the
two, causing Captain Vessels to
duck his head. He lost his bal
ance and rolled to the bottom of the
wallow, but on the outside. The
Interpreter inquired of him whe-
Their he would not like to come up
and speak to the Indians. Strange
as it may seem, the Captain declin-
ed to do SO.
Dull Knife, going in another di-
-ection, together with his wife, his
son and sons wife, and Red Bird,
found a cave in which they hid for
EN- days, and nearly persisted from
starvation. After eighteen days
hey reached the Pine Ridge Ag-
ency, having travelled by night, and
lived on roots, sinews and their
n~occasins.
Of this band of one hundred and
fifty, sixty-four were killed, fifty
light went to Pine Ridge, and
:wenty were sent south. Those who
survived were placed on the
Tongue River reservation.
Dull Knife died in 1883, and was
buried on a high butte near the
river. Little Wolf lived
it the Tongue River reservation in
Montana for almost thirty years.
He became old, blind, poor and
helpless, 'but," concludes his his
:orian, che was a great man to the
