Billings, August 4.-T'he forest
service on the Beartooth national for
est is just completing the building of
an eight-mile telephone system con-
Meeting Camp Senis with Red Lodge.
The line has been strung and the work
Of insulation will be completed In a.
day or two, according to Supervisor r..
7. Ferguson. The line is designed to-.
give better protection to the forest re-
sources of the southern part of the
Beartooth forest in the vicinity Of
camp Senia. The completion Of this
line gives the Beartooth forest lot
miles of telephone lines. All the
ranger stations in the forest are con-
nected with phone as well as other inn
portant places. There is a line to East
Rosebud Of an emergency nature which
the forest service expects to replace

PARTY OF SEVEN
TO EXPLORE THE
BEARTOOTH MTS,

A party of seven men from Bill
Iings arrived in Red Lodge on Mon
days train to make two weeks ex-
ploration in the BearHOoth Mountains.
The party was headed by Fred Inabnit
of Billings who has visited the Bear
tooth Mountains a number of times
, and who is considered an authority
on this area. The rest of the party
consisted of John B. Tnnsil, Yellow
stone County Attorney; George Osten,
deputy county treasurer Of Yellow
stone county; Wsrth Orvs, music
teacher in Billings; Harold Rixon; w
H. Banfll, Billings newspaper writer
and A. r. Pagel, bridge contractor
from Des Moines, Iowa.
Soon after their arrival in Red
Lodge the party left for Camp Senia
and Timberline Lake to make camp
for the night
The party was equipped with packs
and camp equipment and expect to
make the trip to the many mountain
peaks and lakes afoot. The trip is
one that calls for considerable hard
ship and is severe test Of endurance.
Most of the members of this party
made trip to the mountains last year
when they explored many glaciers,
among them the Grasshopper Glacier.
The route for the party to traverse
was laid out by A. H. Croonquist this
year and If this route is followed by
| Mr.. Inabnit there will be no part of the
region that Mr.. Inabnit has not COW
cred and explored. Mr.. Inabnit COM
pleted a great relief map of the Bear
tooth Mountains after his visit last
May which was featured at the Mon
tana Booth at the Outdoor Life expo
sition in Chicago this summer. The
map shows practically every lake,
peak and outstanding Typographical
feature of the mountains.

Legion Convention

Dillon, Aug. 4-Finishing touches
on the American Legion's state con
vention program are being put on by
members Of the Beaverhead post and
they believe that with all Dillon be-
hind the plans the program will excel
any ever arranged for state gather
ing of veterans.
Encouraging reports are heard from
every section of the state and interest
in the meeting is running high among
members of every post in Montana.
Jay Mccarthy, secretary Of the con-
vention, who recently returned from a
tour Of the state, declares that prev
ious optomistic estimates Of the atten-
dance must be discarded and higher
ones made, for it seems that every
legionaire in the state is coming to
Dillon August 10, Ia and l5, II his
duties will permit him to do SO.

EXHIBITS OF SEED
MAKES HIT WITH
MONTANA FARMERS

Bozeman, Aug. 4-The travelling
seed show conducted by the Montana
extension service last spring, visited
80 of the important farming communi-
ties in IL different counties of the
state and carried the message of better
seed to more than 1,400 Montana
farmers. A. ]. Ogard, agronomy spec
iaiist for the extension service, orig
mated the idea of the travelling show
and the exhibits were conducted under
his direction with the agricultural
agents in the different counties man
aging the local exhibits.
The seed show Innovation has attrac-
ted considerable attention throughput
the country. The "Seed World, ma
tional publication, recently carried an
illustrated article concerning Montan-
as venture The illustrations showed
some Of Montana's prize winning a,k-
hibits and the story, In addition to
discussing the seed show idea, told the
readers OF the Hagh quality of seed and
grain prDdnced nm the state. W
In the article, MIR. Ogaard explained
that the travelling exhibit consisted of
samples selected From all of Montana IS
prize winning exhibits at the 1924
International Hay and Grain show,
where the Treasure state entered 28
different clMsses and brought home 27
per cent of tine total prize money offer
ed in those classes. In addition to
samples of the International exhibits,
the local shows also contained 1s6 of
the best exhdhits at the State Ut1ity
Seed show, representing pure seed
supplies fur aaae aF farmers of tie
state. n
Each local show was also made the
occasion for tAe exhibition Of local
seed grown and for sale by the farm
ers Of the ccm.snma4y- a.a 'ssss
Mr.. Ogaard believes that the travel
ing seed show acuomplizhes real pur-
pose in that IL brings high quality seed
directly to the farmers, many OF whom
are unable To- attend state or district
exhibits. 1t is planned to extend the
seed show idea and to take 1t to other
farm communities next spring.

u. M. W. OF A. START
MOVEMENT TO BOOST
MONTANA COAL

District No. 81, United Mine Work
ers of America, OF which Mr.. Joe Boz
zone Ia president and Mr.. Ridell, sec
retary, have allied themselves with
MIR. Stephen Eli Of the State Fedora
tion Of Labor for the purpose Of or
gani1ing movement which they will
present to all Chambers of Commerce,
Commercial Clubs and other civic or
CARNATIONS of the state, which will
boost Montana mined coal
----aaAss- Boaone states that he and the
other two officers will be out on a
speaking tour this week and will talk
TO a number of Chambers of Commerce
in an effort to interest them In this
matter. There IL at the present time
about 100000 tons of outside coal
coming into the state, taking the place
of Montana mined coal, amounting at
the present price to $4,b00,000. This
means that the mines and miners are
loosing that much money, which should
be kept within the borders of the state.
Montana has market for this coal,
and II all of the Commercial clubs
and civic organizations In Montana,
will get behind such movement,
there is no doubt but that 1t will be
a successful one for the business peo-
pie Of Montana.
Mr.. Bozone states that the coal
mining industry has shown slight
improvement in the past few months
throughout the United States.
