The Hollywood camp is deserted and
the movie stars have scattered, some
returning to California, others to the
reservation and others to their homes
in this and Dolores counties. The max
ing Of this great picture has been a
good thing for Dolores both from q
financial and educational standpoint.
The company hired all home people
with the exception Of few trained
actors and actresses, and they bought
their supplies from the local merchants.

any one was welcome to visit the camp
to see them work. It is the wish OF

ested in the company may receive large
dividends on the money invested.

The ability of the executive who
wrought this transformation is rec
ognized in the life insurance world.
Ten years after Mr.. Cunningham
took charge of the company, he was
unanimously elected president of the
American Life convention, an organ
ization whose membership is confined
to the principal insurance companies
of the United States.
In 1912, when he took charge of
the Montana Life, its capital and sur
plus was half a million dollars. At
the close of 1928, its admitted assets
totaled more than five and a quarter
million dollars, of which almost one
million is surplus to policyholders.
Insurance in force in 1912 totaled
$780, 900; at the close of 1928,
more than $35,25O,0O0. Twelve
years ago the Home Office consisted
of three rooms in which six persons
were employed. This spring the
company will move, with its staff of
81 Home Office employees, into its
own three story building costing
.$150,000. In 1912 it wrote insur-
ance only in Montana; now it main
tains general agencies in IL states
in the western, Intermountain, and
Pacific coast regions.

BUSINESS ROMANCE
OF MONTANA LIFE
HOW ONE MAN HAS BUILT UP
ONE OF GREAT BUSINESS
INSTITUTIONS OF WEST.
In Few Years Developed Assets of
Half Million Into More Than Five
and a Quarter Million Dollars.

The growth of the Montana Life
Insurance Company of Helena in
IL years, under the management
of Harry r.. Cunningham, former
insurance commissioner of Mon
tana, is a story OF one of the out
standing romances of business in
the northwest. The stockholders
are nearly all Montanans, while its
poIicyholders are scattered through
IL states.
In a little more than a decade
the company has developed into one
of the strongest financial institu-
tutions, for its size and age, in the
country. It's progress has been so
substantial that it's policyholders'
surplus, for the insurance in force,
as revealed by the annual statement
for 1928, makes it one of the lead
ing life insurance companies of the
nation.

TRAPPER LASS0ES WILD
CAT AFTER BIG BATTLE

Charles Corn's latest adventure
is bringing in a live bob cat which
he caught in a trap recently. Corn
mas making the ranch rounds of
his traps when he foundn one to
contain a bob cat of matured size.
He began figuring on delivering the
cat alive and attempted to place a
wire around the animals neck.
He succeeded In gettinng the
wire over the cats head several
times, but could not get to either
side of the animal to fasten it as
the cat proposed to stand facing its
captor at all times.
Finally Corn cut a small green
limb from a tres and tapped the
cat hard enough on the head to
put it out. He then fastened the
wire on the animal and took it
from the steel trap. Then he start
ed to lead his pet to his home a
mile or more distant. Only one
mix-up occurred on the way home
when the cat became excited and
sprang for Corn's face. Corn
raised his arm Just in time to
break the force of the cat, but re-
ceived slight cuts on the arm either
from its claws or teeth.
After a few days in captivity the
cat was killed, as it did not seem
to appreciate its new surroundings
and was a dangerous guest.

1900 CARLOADS PRODUCE
AND STOCK FROM HARDIN

Carload shipments from Hardin
These were as follows:
Beets, 564 cars; cattle, $50 cars;
wheat, 285 cars; honey, 8 cars;
beans, 8 cars; sheep, z cars; hors-
es, g cars; hogs, 3 cars; miscellan-
eous, 30 cars. Ten cars of alfalfa
seed grown in Big Horn county
were shipped from other points.
The production of honey has in
creased rapidly until now few
points in the state can compare
at all ~fayorably with Hardin. Dur
ing the last year, farmers have
grown more corn than ever before,
and as a result, no corn has been
shipped into the county. Ordinarily
a number of cars of corn are ship
ped in each year.
1t is expected that more corn
will be planted during the coming
season thanh was planted last year.
The Hagerman Brothers market
ed two ear of corn fed steers,
which topped the market at Oma-
ha. They report their experience
in feedingn corr entirely satisfac-
tory annd that they expect to con
tinue this form OF feeding. The
cattle were followed by a bunch
of hogs which were shipped In best
of condition. They state that they
realized a net OF $50 per acre for
the corn marketed in this manner.
A number of farmers who have
been watching their results are
planning to plant corn to feed their
cattle, and feel that the practice
will continue.

time later, however, there occurred a
fire and the timber about the new
dam was destroyed and the beaver
decided to return to their original
damsite. The wire with the tin cans
attached was still in place. When
the farmer made his next tour of in
spection he found that the beaver had
cut a stout pole with a forked end
and had placed it under the wire to
raise it out of the water like a wash
erwoman ~elevates her clothes line.
Having stopped the bothersome noise
the beaver went about their work of
reconstructing the dam and the farm
er again visited the state house with
his complaint, this time to ask for a
permit to kill the little animals.
Statistics are not available to show
the exact number of residents of
Montana, who are engaging success
fully in fur farming, but is growing
yearly and includes the raising of not
only all the animals mentioned here,
but also skunk, frogs and several
kinds of fox.
Certain parts of Montana are ex-
