Big Fund for Enrolling Boys
The national Council, alive to the
Importance of Scout training for the
100000 boys not yet enrolled in the

600 fund for the purpose stated,
with highly gratifying results. A.
unique award known as the achieve

progressive, was recently authorized.
More than 1000 medals for life-sav-

been awarded to Boy Scouts to date.
The parents of boys throughout
the country, VINO appreciate the
value of Scout training, never fail

arc nationwide. Rallies, hikes, pc
triotic pilgrimages, Father and Son
banquets, services in churches and
schoOlS-these are only a few Of the

February 9Th, the Scouts renew THEN

country, to obey the Scout Law, to
help others at all times, and to keep
themselves physically strong, men
tally awake and morally upright
The slogan Of the 1925 celebration,
i"Once a Scout, Always a Scout" has
served to rally under the same BAN

bers who have cut-grown their boy
hood, but whose sympsthies are and
always will be, with the Boy Scouts
of America.
Cooperation is General

The Electric Heights addition to
Bozeman is being extensively adver-
tised in Anaconda as four blocks
from The Bozeman, etc. One Of
these days some person who purch-
asses a lot for 800 and finds it

The Courier family is indebted to
j. L. Turner of Spring Hill mills fer
one sack each of his Queen of the
Kitchen and Bakers Delight flour.
While perhaps a shade darker than
some other brands Of flour in the
market, it possesses two excellent
qualities which some others to a GER
tain degree lack, namely, it possesses
greater strength and raises more
quickly. The farmers Of Spring Hill
and vicinity hould feel thankful
that they can now get so good a
quality of flour made at home and
are not compelled to go a long dist
ance to get a small supply for home
use.

Several farmers living west Of
the city have been heard to complain
recently of water cyerflowing the
road, and accuse other farmers of al
lowing water to run in their irri-
eating bitches during the winter in
stead Of turning it out in the fall.
Upon inquiring we have ~ascertained
that the farmers are not to blame
and have been wrongfully accused,
as the water comes from living
springs and after running ad istance
finds its way into bitches filled with
snow, causing them to gorge and
overflow, making the roads in. many
places almost impossible.

A number of our local nimrods
who have made recent unsuccessful
fishing excursions to the West Gal
latin river attribute the scarcity Of
fish to the number of canals and
bitches now taking water from that
stream, and claim that unless the
matter is soon remedied by the put
ting in of screens, fish in the West
Gallatin will be a thing of the past.
This is certainly a matter worthy
of consideration and it is to be hop
ed that proper steps will be taken to
protect the fish in this stream, as it
has been considered heretofore one
of the best in the state.
