HOTEL deANDERSON
OPEN TO THE
PUBLIC

Among the new institutions
that are swelling our thriving
city to greater size is the Hotel
deAnderson on Second avenue
now just receiving the finishing
touches of the contractor, ]. P.
Murphy. The building is of con-
crete and steel construction,
fire proof and burglar proof. 1t
is an unusually substantial
structure on plain architectural
lines but not displeasing in ap-
pearance, especially from an ex-
terror view. From within, the
rooms are rather severe and de-
pressing, but will no doubt i'm
prove with time.
The hotel will be under the
personal management of John
H. Anderson, assisted by T. L.
Blackmon and C. L. Council,
who were today experimenting
the placing of the furnishings
of the hostelry. Mr.. Black
mon, in charge of the cuisine,
says very thing possible will be
done to make guests like the
place and stay the full time for
which they register. It will be
conducted on a democratic pol
icy, no one will be barred out,
but of course in rush times pre-
ference will be given those en-
gagged in certain occupations.
A considerable patronage is al
ready pledged to the new place,
mostly from Glasgow.

PIG CLUB HELPS BOYS
TO EARN GOOD PROFITS

That pig club work lends to a
profitable farm enterprise cannot be
denied if the records and results 90
tained by Delmer Leeson, a club
member of Bainville, are closely
scrutinized.
Delmer entered the pig club work
in the spring of 1923 with a regis
tered Durroc gilt, He did not get
much good results from the first litter
of pigs that he raised as it was not
extra large but he managed to raise
a few good hogs. He kept the gifts
and sold the males. He did not win
any of the club prizes that were
offered that year as the size of the
litter graded him down too far, but
he stuck with it. And it gave him a
good start for 1924 He sold from
bis last years hog business three
registered animals for $105.80 and
six spring pigs for $121.90. The six
spring pigs averaged 276 pounds each
when sold. Besides his sales he had
registered Duroc Jerseys left to
produce for him this year when hogs
are nearing the peak in prices. This
boy will produce results this year.
He is also cutting down the labor
requirements by using the hogging
off method of harvesting and feeding
his corn and claims it very salts
factory, that his hogs practically
wintered in the unharvested corn
field and were no trouble at all to
take care off.
There are a number of boys in
Roosevelt county who stayed with it
who have records that will parallel

MONTANA TRIUMPHS

HILL, SURVEY SHOWS
CASH FARM INCOME SIPS, ,000,-
600 PRODUCED IN 1924,
SAYS OFFICIAL
Corvv;n Calls Farm Profit Possible
Even In Areas That Sut-
fered Worst Setback

Montana is confident, optimistic
and debt triumphant, 0. M. Corwln
vice president of the Wells-Dlckey
company said in Minneapolis today
on his return from a months trlT
to farms and communities of thai
state. Long intimate with its devel-
opment. Mr.. Corwin said now more
than ever he feels the assurance OF
a future of tremendous prosperity
for the "empire of Montana"
Mr.. Corwin said:
Montana, an "infant in agri-
culture" produced a cash farm
income of S125, 100000 in 1924.
In 1928 liquidation began in
earnest and 1924 witnessed a
wonderful recovery in debt pay
ment. Good crops and better
prices helped.
Many farmers paid all their
debts in full. Others paid loose
debts, including bank borrow
ings. taxes and interest on mort
cages.
Some who have abandoned
their farms came back.
The banks are in excellent
condition and their future made
sounder by the wedding out in
adversity of the surplus banks.
Mr.. Corwin commented upon the
commonly expressed opinion of the
cattleman and of his old rivalyr the,
sheepman. who later became allies
against the common enemy, the
homesteader. This opinion is that
the prairies never should have been
opened up for farming.
Saws Worst Areas Can Profit
"With only our past experience
to guide us, we will admit that GER
tain areas may have been more val
liable as grazing lands than as farm
ing lands. as they were titled by the
underfnanced home
steader," Mr.. Corwin said. "But |
am strongly of the opinion that even
those territories which suffered the
greatest setbacks or practically fal-
ed con be made to produce proftably
by thrifty, intelligent farming.
"The greatest influx of homestead
ers was from 1909 to 1918" Mr..
Corwin compared the stock assessed
for taxes before and after the home
,teader. "In 1890 there were 49,
700 milk cows and in 1923, 10000.
$4,000 other cattle in
1890 and 1,235,O0O in 1928. Also

LITTLE GIRL OF 10
DROWNED IN FLOOD
WATERS OF TOULEY
FATHER TAKING HER HOME IN
SLED-ICE BREAKS, WATER
OVERCOMES HIM

Pearl Veins, 10 years old, was
drowned Wednesday evening in a
branch of Touley Greek northeast
of Volt The body was recovered
Thursday morning. The father, Abe
Veins, went to the Volt school, ac-
cording to his regular custom, to
bring his daughter home, using a

hdme the sled broke through the
ice on one side causing the box and
cab to leave the sled and float down
stream with the two occupants.
Leaps From Box
The little girl was badly frighten-
ed and begged her father to leave
the box. She would have jumped
into the stream if her father had
not held her. He decided to make
the attempt to reach the bank with
his daughter in his arms. He leap
ed from the box and when his feet
struck the smooth ice beneath the
water, he lost his footing and they
went down and under. When he
came up the child was gone and by
the time he had reached the bank
he was unable to see her in the rush
ing stream in the approaching dark
ness.
Fence Catches Body
With the help Of several neigh
bors, diligent search was made for
the body but it could not be found.
In the morning it was discovered a
long distance dow the stream en-
cased in ice and lodged against
wire fence.
Today three neighbors of Mr.
Veins, J. c. McLachlan, J. J. Helm
richs and julius Cess, came to Wolf
Point to report the accident and Sc
cure a casket. Funeral services will
be held at the Brethren church at
Volt on Sunday and burial will be
