as best he could for 500 miles. when
he was able to supply himself with
the needed articles. After he passed
Great Falls and re-launched his boat
at Benton the head Of navigation, he
had mostly plain sailing.
Mr.. Hite is enthusiastic Over his
trip, the varied scenery making it de-
Ightful. He carries with him a coal
oil stove, and kills what game he
wants on the way. The boat is pro-
tected by a shelter of tarpaulin AMI
the stern is entirely enclosed and
made into a sleeping apartment with
small windows and screens for venti-
lation and projection from insects.
Here he has slept since September
Is, 1890, and will so continue until
he reaches the gulf Of Mexico.
The boat and it's owner have had a
number of exciting experiences. The
river above Great Falls is a continu-
GUS series of rapids for 400 miles and
although many boats have attempted
the trip it is said that no one has
ever before succeeded in making it,
as the boats were always smashed to
pieces. Twice on this trip, Mr.. Hite
said he thought the boat and posi-
bly, its occupant were lost, but they
came through all right.
The most serious objection to many
would be the practically continuous
solitude for 1900 miles, during which
one can rarely see a human being,
till he comes to the settled part of
the country. Wild animals were pier
tiful, as were also the Indians. The
latter, however, gave him no trouble.
as he would anchor his boat out in
the stream, and except in some vii
, lagos on the banks of the river, none
of the Indians have boats.

= can have a 1%,OOO-pound keel made FOL
t his boat and at the same time dis
e pose of a lot Of buffalo horns he ha.
d brought along with him, all of which
a will detain him for about two weeks
when he will then proceed south

BOZEMAN'S FUTURE BRIGHT
hewitt Says No Town Has Better
Backing Than This.

Will hewitt returned home from an
extended trip this week. He visited
New York, Boston, Philadelphia and
other eastern cities, returned to Chi
cagO and Wisconsin and remained
there a while, then visited Mexico,
took in the new mining camps in Col
orado and returned home by way Of
Salt Lake City.
He says a number of the places he
visited look well and times are fair
~ prosperous but that, in his opinion
he did not see a place with better
backing than Bozeman has, nor one
where the future is more inviting.

GALLATTN VALLEY
A Tribute to It's Greatness and the
Magnificence of its Homes.

There is not a more thrifty agrl-
cultural community anywhere on the
hab:table globe than the Gallatin val
ley. This is n Of the oldest settled
valleys in the state, and being favor
ably located with reference to the
mining districts which have furnished
Montana with a market for her field
products, the farmers have flourished
right along since the early-day set
tiers planted themselves there, way
back in the Sixties.
The few settlers whom we found
there as early as '65, some of whom
are there still, had but little idea OF
the possibilities of their valley, not
w~ithstandihg they lauded it to the
skies. The progress that has been
made has been simply marvellous. II
is true that a great many years have
passed away and a great deal Of
work has been performed, but it Is
only within the last two or three
years that its own people have come
to realize what an empire of agri
cultural wealth that valley will some
time be.

ANNUAL STOCKHOLDERS MEET
ING OF BOHEMIAN MILLING CO.

The first annual stockholders
meeting of the Bozeman Milling COM
pany was held at the court house on
Saturday. The day being extremely
wet and the roads bad, only a small
portion of the farmer stockholders
were in. However, a good majority
of the stock was represented and the
result of the first ballot showed that
the company was satisfied with the
work CT the trustees who had served
the first three months, as they were
all reelected to serve for the coming
year.
The ~treasurer's report showed thai
nearly all the stockholders had paiC
their second assessment and severa
their third, and that the finances o.
the company were in a healthy con

GARRETT P. SERVISS TELLS OF
SEEING MOONS BACK
Lunas Rocking Motion Which Lets Us Peer
Around It's Edges Explained

with great interest follow
your educative articles. I can
not over-emphasize my delight
when / find subjects which
studied in my schoolboy days
explained in such a clear and
concise manner.
''Now, will you satisfy my
curiosity about the rotation of
the moon? Does its period of
turning on its axis coincide 50
exactly with its revolution around
the earth that astronomers have
not been able to perceive any
part of it's other side? II the
two periods do not coincide,
which is the longest, and how
long will it take before the moon
shows it's other side?-G. e. NJ,
Chicago"
r EFT us have some crystallized
Ia mathematics in the form of
a picture. But first, the earth
is not exactly in the center OF
the moons orbit, for the latter
is an ellipse, and the moons dis
lance from the earth varies be-
tween about 253,000 miles when
it is farthest, and 222 900 when
1t is nearest. It's mean distance
is 238,840 miles. Now, by the
travel faster in it's orbit when it
when it is farther away. Keep
that in mind.
There is one other preliminary
fact to be stated. The moon ro-
tates on it's axis once a month;
/. e., once during every trip
around the earth, and the rate of
this rotation is practically uni
form. From this it follows that,
on the whole, the moon keeps
always the same side toward the
earth. Nevertheless, 1t does not
completely conceal from us the
side that is turned away, and
how that happens our picture
will explain.
Note carefully that the shaded
part of the moon in the picture is
simply that part which is inVisi-
BILE from the earth, and has MOTH
ing to do with the illumination by
the sun, for we are not consider
ing the sun at all, One thing
more: the larger arrows show the
moons revolution around the
earth; the smaller arrows its re-
tation on its own axis.
Now, here is a capital fact:
THE RATE OF REVOLUTION
IN THE ORBIT CHANGES g
CORDING TO DISTANCE FROM
THE EARTH, BUT THE RATE
OF ROTATION ON THE AXIS
IS ALWAYS THE SAME.
Start with the moon at "A,
where 1t is nearest the earth. and
consequently travelling at maxi
mum speed. The observer on the
earth sees the point "a" i'm the
center of the visible hemisphere
of the moon, the limits Of which
are at "b" and &C."
Now, since the moons rotation
on it's axis Is uniform. 1t will

quarter of the time that it takes

moon beyond 3D." which was con.
cealed from his eyes when the
moon was at "A"
That is to say the visible
hemisphere of the moon has
shifted like cap. toward the
right, as seen from "E." Con-
versely, at c. a similar part
Of the moon, which was before
visible. has now become invisible.
Next follow the mon to &C."
It Is now at the far end of it's
orbit, and it's rate Of revolution
around the earth has been dimin-
fishing until it is now at mini
mum. Meanwhile, the moons ro-
tation on it's axis has relatively
gained, so that the visible hem
isphere has shifted back to the
position that it had at "a"
On leaving "C' the rotation is
still gaining on the revolution
so that the cap of visibility is
row shifted in the opposite di
rection and, when the moon ar
rives at ID" the observer sees
beyond &C." while "b" has passed
Into the invisible hemisphere.
But from 3D. back to "A" the
balance Is restored again. and
"a" is once more in the center
Of the visible hemisphere.
Thus, you see, by virtue of
this filtration in longitude" we
can look now a little around
enc edge and now little around
the other edge of the moon.
Then, too. there is a filtration
in latitude" due to the fact that
the moon is part of the time
north of the plane of the earth's
orbit and part of the time south,
which enables us to see now over
the north pole and now over the
south pole of the moon

An engine that will get the FULL POWER gasoline or

With engine using the full power of gasoline the small

The average moorist does about 5000 miles year At the
