agated by division of the aeshy root
called rhiZomes.
They multiply quite rapidly, and at
least every three or four years the
plants of most kinds should be divided
and reset. Nearly all species do best
on a rich soil, although they will thrive
on much poorer ground.

CULTIVATION NECESSARY

The early planted crops which are
breaking through the soil should have
light and frequent cultivation. This
will prevent the weeds from getting
ahead and keep the much-needed
moisture in the ground. AS soon as
the second true leaves appear, if ii
can be done without disturbing the
shoots, thin out the young vegetable
seedlings.

not too much moisture. The surface
of the soil should be kept loosened
and all weeds pulled out, but aside
from this, sweet potatoes require very
little attention.
The crop should be dug just as soon
as the vines are killed by frost; in
fact, the potatoes should be dug be-
fore the vines are badly frozen. If
the vines become frozen it is necessary
to cut them off just above the ground
before the frozen sap has chance to
90 down into the potatoes.

TRAIN ROBBER TO
GO TO OLD HOME
CLARENCE YOUNG, AFTER SERV-
ING 10 YEARS IN PEN,
is PARDONED
When Youth of "a, Held up North
Coast Limited Near Bearmouth;
Was Sentenced to so Years; Will
Take Care of His Parents.

Clarence Young, Montana train
robber, after serving 10 years in
the state penitentfary, and pardon
ed this month, has returned to his
old home in Oklahoma to look
after his parents during their old
age, it has been learned.
Young, when a youth of "a, held
up the North Coast Limited train
of the Northern Pacific near Bear
mouth on the night of May 81,
1905, singlehanded. Before he had
completed his task of robbing the
safe and while he was off his guard
he was struck down by George
Laub, express messenger, and rem
dered Unconscious by a blow on
the head.
Later he was sent to the peniten
tiary for SO years from Philipsburg
While serving his sentence there he
was sentenced to life because of par
ticipation in an attempted escape
from the institution which resulted in
the death of an official. The break
was led by a prisoner named Ste
phens.
The news that young had gone to
his old home in Oklahoma was
brought to Missoula by Dave
Graham, local contractor, at present
working at Arlee, and who was in the
city.

spent a few days after he got out and
then to Arlee to locate a brother
through me-" Mr.. Graham said.
With the brother, Percy, who was
on the Jocko. he returned to Okla
homa to give his parents what com
fort he could in their latter years.
He told me it was all his own fault,
he was caught and felt grateful
TO those who had assisted in getting
he pardon, although he said he had
been treated fine at the peni-
during his long stay there"
Mr.. Graham was sheriff of Mis-
;oula county at the time of the hold
Up of the train and last year was
of those who circulated the petit
ions to be given to the prison board
for Young's release.
Young was well known in Missoula
It the time of the holdup and it is
aid he was known as "Red" Young
~ nearly every lumberjack in west
Montana.
At the time of the holdup and after
had been knocked down, mem
'ers of the train crew feared Young
the inside man and that others
outside the car and would make
rouble. Even after his arrest, it
vas thought others were in on the
oldup, although Young maintained
e did it alone. The story is that
Dung carefully planned the holdup
nd secured the powder used in blow
1g the safe from outside the state
smuggled it in.

a man raised up from behind a
rock and hollered Halt! | was
head and shoulders out of the
coach. Shotgun in hand, eighteen
buckshot to the barrel and powder
enough to send them, he hadn't the
word out of his mouth before he
had eighteen buckshot buried in
him and I only had to shoot ten
feet. He fell backwards and both
barrels of his shotgun went off as
he was falling and they looked like
the smokestacks of a steamboat.
The smoke from my gun blowed
away and there stood my next good
man, another road agent, and |
shot him with my other load"
The gold was saved, but Beidler
later learned that Orr and big
Nick" had arranged to share it
with the robbers, provided the
holdup was successful; and that
big Nick" had his dividend"
from the six thousand dollars
taken while he was messenger.
Both Judge Munson and Colonel
K. Mcclure, have spoken in the
highest terms of the courage dis
played by Beidler, both as a vigil
lantte and as deputy United States
marshal. In addition. Colonel Nc
Clure says of him: J.. x. Beidler
was a humorist and something of
philosopher. He is often called
the Mark Twain of Montana"
His death occurred at Helena in
January, 1890, where he is buried,
and a large boulder serves as his
monument.

Sheep Herder Kills

Clarence Williams, 81, is under ar
rest at Dillon, charged with shooting
to death George Harrison, so. Ac-
cording to the Dillon officers, Will
liams admitted the shooting, which
he said followed a quarrel over own
ership of a revolver and over money
which Williams claimed Harrison
owed him. The two men met in the
street and death is said to have been
instantaneous when the shot was
fired practically without warning.
The only witness was a small girl
playing in a yard, and she has given
only an incoherent account. The two
men had been employed as sheep
herders and occupied adjoining ca
bins. Both were unmarried and no
relatives have been located.

A rather peculiar incident in ami
NAL life is reported to have occurred
at the E. E. Wheeler farm east of
Froid and is vouched for by Mr..
Wheeler himself, who claims that a
litter of five pigs was born to the
mother animal on a certain date and
that in another seven days a family
of six healthy young squealers were
given birth by the same mother pig.
Aside from one or two of the number
being smothered to death the little
fellows are we'll and hearty.

John x. Beidler, Famous Viglante Executive, Famed for having the
Best Nerve and the Quickest Trigger Finger when they were Most Needed

George Ives also took a mule o
Beidler's, and claimed he had rid
den it seventy-five miles for
number of days. Beidler told hin
if he ever rode it again he woult
kill him. This did not end tn,
trouble, nor increase Beidler's Xix.
ing for Gallagher and Ives. The
latter asked Beidler DO you know
who | amp" to which interrogation
Beidler instantly replied, eyes,
think you are a thief from the way
you have acted" And then in true
western fashion, they both went
into a saloon and took a drink,
Beidler paying for the treat.
After the murder of Dillingham;,
which vas perpetrated in broad
daylight, and in the presence of
witnesses, Jack Gallagher, as de
putty sheriff, declared the murder
ers acquitted. The murdered man
remained unburied until Beidler
made his coffin and dug his grave.
From this, we infer that tx" had
added to his other trades that of
undertaken.
Meanwhile Beidler was becom-
ing thoroughly acquainted with
the road agents, and they with him.,
as the following, from a letter sent
him, indicates:
81. x. Beidler:
1--WE herewith give you notice
that we intend to kill you at the
first opportunity that offers and
will give you no more time to pre-
pare for death than the many men
you have murdered"
(Signed) "Anti-Vigilantes."
There was no doubt on the part
Of the writers of this letter as to
what Beidler would do to them, if
he had the opportunity and they
wished him to understand that they
were only too willing to recipro-
That they failed to kill him
was due to his being able to thwart
heir plans through provision, or
good craftsmanship.
Beidler gives a thrilling account
n his journal of an instance when
,hese two characteristics of his
stood him in good stead. He was
as messenger for Wells,
company's express, running
rom Helena to Salt Lake City, at
time when it was not unusual for
heir coach to carry three or four
hundred pounds of gold. There
vas always danger of holdups,
With SO much treasure aboard, and
specially while passing through
'ortneuf Canyon, where the abrupt
in the road, and the high
wallis of rock which inclosed it,
furnished admirable hiding places
or robbers.

JOHN x. BENDLER, STRONG RIGHT ARM
OF THE vlG0LAMTES; HOW HE SPOILED
STAGE H0LDUP BY QUICK SHOOTING

On the occasion mentioned Bed
Ter alone had charge of the gold
$4,000 worth, to Pleasant Valley
where two other men would Jo1r
him for the nights ride. Beidle1
did not like the aides assigned him
One of them, Frank Orr, he said
was a thief, and the other, big
Nick" Beidler had arrested in Hell
ena for making bogus gold dust,
and had sent him to jail, from
which he escaped, the jails of that
period being none too trustworthy.
The further circumstance of his
having ten days earlier thrown up
his hands, enabling road agents to
escape with $1,000 he was hired to
protect, did not contribute to his
desirability as an assistant mes
senger.
Beidler's suspicious were arous-
ed; and on reaching Pleasant Val
ley he announced that he would
ride inside the coach with "Big
Nick" instead of outside with the
driver, as was his custom. Orr, he
said, could ride outside. There
were no passengers, as few persons
cared to take chances when treas
TIRE was sent.
At the mouth of Beaver canyon,
when the six horses were being
changed at the station, Beidler saw
Nick and Orr whispering together
near the stable. Calling the driver
to him, he told him, in case of a
holdup, if he cared for his life, not
to put on the brake, but to lash
the horses into a run, and he,
Beidler, would have his head and
out of the coach window
On the drivers side.
From the mouth of Beaver Can
yon to Little Dry Creek, where
most of the holdups occurred, was
:hree miles. When they had gone
about a mile big Nick" asked
Beidler, "What will you do if you
ire halted?"
Beidler replied: II am getting
$50 per month to fight to save
.reasure, and I will shoot at the
irst thing that crawls."
Nick suggested that they give up
he gold; go on a half mile, and
hen walk back and capture the
'obbers. This brilliant scheme did
lot appeal to Beidler. Instead, he
'ut his head out of the coach win
and called to the driver, "Hold
lines we'll in hand and let
hem rum" The account contin-
es:
"The moon was full and bright

| was living in For
w Benton, | often saw, sit
ting out of doors near TIL
hotel, a short thick-set man, sur
rounded by a group of persons
who seemed to be greatly interest
ed in what the little man had t.
say. He was never alone, but al
ways held court in the midst of ad
mirers. There he sat, day aftel
day, with his hat pushed back or
his round head, and held forth te
his audience, who did some of the
talking, to be sure, but were quite
willing that he should have the
monopoly of the conversation.
After a time / learned that the
little man was no other than John
K. Beidler. with whose name I was
familiar from the days of the Vigi-
lantes-a name associated with
many deeds of daring. I no longer
wondered at his being the center
of attraction for other men, and I
wished I could question him re-
garding his part in Kidding the ter
ritory of the bandits who once
ruled it.
Unfortunately it was out of my
power to do SO, and | gained my
knowledge of Beidler's exploits
from his journal, or what I heard
of him in 1868. The Vigilance
committee had no sooner been or
ganized than TX" became a prom
inent figure in the public eye. At
first no one knew whether he could
be relied upon to act with the law
and order forces. But that was not
strange. Many others, good men
and true, were suspected of sym
pathy with the road agents. Sus-
picion then was universal, and CON
tinued to be SO until the test of ser
vice revealed those who could be
trusted.
1t did not take long for the
Vigilantes to discover that they
had no Drawer, no more loyal mem
Der than x. Beidler. The road
agents learned early where to place
and they feared him. Like
Alexander, in the old rhyme:
"'Twas not his stature made
him great"
or dreaded by the law1ess element,
but his marvellous rapidity of both
thought and action. Some one has
said that no westerner is ever de-
on the stage, or elsewhere,
who is not quick on the draw"
.eidler certainly was a typical
vesterner, according to this stand
lrd, as he handled a pistol with
speed and dexterity, as the despera-
1oes had ample proof.
Born on August IA, 1881 in Ian
,aster County, Pennsylvania, his
lame of Beidler would indicate he
vas of German lineage. While in
lis native state, he worked at shoe
making, Recommending, and brick
making. Drifting west, he reached
Kansas, and for a time became a
aloon-keeper. The lure of Pixies
Peak drew him to Colorado in '58,
where he failed to make a fortune,
nd he decided to seek it elsewhere.
this in view, he came to Alder
.ulch in 1868, soon after its dis
overy.
Almost at once he came in con-
act with the road agents. He let
ack Gallagher take his mare, with
ne proviso that it was to be re-
lrned in a half hour. Gallagher
ept the animal two hours and a
alf. Beidler learned later that
ne mare had been borrowed in
rider that Gallagher might ar
for the murder Of Deputy
heriff Dillingham;, the only one
f Plummer's deputies who was not
road agent.

GUMS


Gums are the soft, fleshy
parts of the jaw which surround
the teeth.
Their purpose is to guide the
food past the teeth, to prevent
infection, to cover the roots of
the teeth and hold them in
place.
Any injury or infection causes
inflammation, recession, tender
ess and bleeding, with loss of
support to the teeth.
When your tooth brush
''shows pink or your mouth has
a bad odor, get Pyradium to
prevent the spread of infection.
