fishing parties and other amusements
are provided for guests who are in

the transcontinental road through

lake will be the most popular spot in
America. Nothing remains to COM
plete the comfort of the traveller ex-

on the lake. Reports in Kalispell
recently were to the effect that a syn

a tract Of about 200 acres, near the

Bones of Bear and
Man Tell A Gruesome
Silent Story of Early
Day Battle

A relic of a fight in which a
man and a bear each lost his life
has fallen into the hands of Pat
Paisley of Missoula who acquired
the article from Alex Donnelley,
fire patrolman of the East Selway
forest. The relic is an old cap and
ball pistol, covered with rust of
many years, and was found by Mr..
Donnelley on top of the Selway d.
vide, near the Montana-Idaho state
line.
The gun which has three charged
chambers, was found among the
bones of the man and bear, and the
finder believes that the gun tells the
story of a mighty struggle for life
in which both the contestants lost.
The bones were bleached white, which
leads to the belief that the fight took
place many years ago, and this belief
Is strengthened by the apparent age
OF the gun, which is of a type manu-
featured prior to the Civil war.
Mr.. Paisley has removed part OF
the rust from the barrel of the wea-
pom and with the aid of a glass the
following words are discernable: "36
calibre-pr-COlonel." He hopes
that further polishing will reveal the
name of the owner of the gun, which
might give a clue to the identity Of
the skeleton.
The bones of the man and the beast
were found about three miles from
the spot where, two years ago, the
skeleton of a man, with both arms
imprisoned in a steel bear trap, was
discovered by men patrolling the fire
lines. The identity Of this unfortun-
ate man remains a mystery, as prob
ably will hat of the skeleton whose
bony hand clasped the weapon, now
but the relic of a lost fight.

from his thoughts the idea of partic1-
pating in this ceremony again when
last summer the leaders of the tribes
began to gather the poles for the cere-
mony, counsel was %unavailing and au-
thorities realized that to forbid meant
instruction and defeat of authority.
A compromise was reached whereby
the Indians agreed not to lacerate
their bodies with knives or draw
blood.
The Arapahoe tribe erected their
poles about four miles from Fort
Washable, and started their dance
a few, days later than that of the Sho-
shones. People who visited the scene
of the dances this year reported even
wilder orgies than those which char
acterized the dance of last year.

ger. Fewer grasshoppers will lay eggs
this fall and there will be less young
hOppers to handle in control meas
ures next spring. The year 1925
should be proof Of the claim of the
entomologists that a vigorous cam
pa1gn one year is better than half
hearted measures over a series OF
years.
Centennial's Experience.
This experience is found in the
Centennial valley Of B~eaverhead
county. In 1920 and 1921 this dis
trict had severe grasshopper damage.
Farmers and county officials were
not convinced that poisoning would
pay. But money was raised and ex-
perts went into the field. They soon
found they did not have enough
funds to complete the control meas
ures. They appealed for o funds,
but there was still skepticism. Then
they took county officials and lead
Ing farmers over the areas that had
been treated with bait. It took only
a short time to convince every one
that the campaign was a success.
Money was raised to finish the work
and this valley, as a result has had
no outbreak of grasshoppers since
1921, although other regions OF the
state suffered in 1922 and 1923.
The entomologists have had help
this year from the sarcophagfd fly,
the ~avenging nemesis OF the grass
hopper family. This fly, sometimes
called the flesh fly, lays its living
maggot on the side OF the grasshop-
per and the maggot entrenches itself
in the 'hopper's body and does
effective work. Many hoppers killed
by this fly have been found In fields
visited by the entomologists this year.
Another help that spelled thou
sands Of dollars OF value to Montana's
crops this year was the cold SNAP
that followed the warm days of Feb
ruary and March caught many young
hoppers that had Matched in the
warm days. Cold weather caused a
vitality for them and was
to a fungus growth that
killed many OF them.
The grasshopper outbreak in Mon
ANA has obtained some unwelcome
comment in the past three or four
5ears and Montana farmers and busi-
men are receiving with welcome
he news that the 1924 damage is
negligible and that there are pros
'ects for even less trouble in 1925.
