i've than it's return to the old-timer, !
a beam of amazement shOne from
''Sandbar" Browns countenance as
he at once inquired of the miner: !,
"How long have you had this
newspaper"
ooh, bout 81 years now, reck-
on" was the reply.
"Well," said the secretary, you've
carried it long enough; I'm going to
keep it for awhile"
The Frontier Scout
This ancient product of a Wash
ingtOn hand-press proved to be an
indeed rare document copy of /
''The Frontier Scout" published at
old Fort Union, d. T., under date Of
Wednesday, August II, 1S64-a relic
inestimably of historic value, not
alone because of it's age, but more
because of its printed contents.
There are but three or four cop
les of this early-day publication re-
naming, and these are safely guard
ed in the archives of historical So
cieties or private collections. One or
two copies are in the hands of the
North Dakota Historical Society, and
two are preserved by the historical
4
Railway company. This particular
copy is, however, so far as is now
known, the only one which bears the
aforementioned date. And, this issue
is of more than ordinary historical
importance in that it sets forth an ac-
count of the arrival at Fort Union of
General Sully and his eXpeditiOnary
forces.
4. @. Power With Sully
It was cOincident that this dOcu-
ment should come to light at a Pi-
oneers' convention held in the old
river town of Fort Benton; for, one
of that city's most prominent pioneer
citizens trail blazer and a pioneer
in successful business on a large scale
the late Senator T. c. Power-was
a member of the party which accom-
panied General Sully on his aggres-
sive trek across the indescribable
Wilds Of central-Western North Da-
kota.
Senator Power was in charge Of
the "Sutler" trade ship which was a
part of the Sully party in 1864.

noted from the illustration appear.

 Lambs have been born in the state college flock with tails so short that they do not have 10 be docked. They have been developed from crossing native siberian rams with ewes Of the Shropshire. Hampshire and Ramhoullet breeds
 After several years work in tusine 'hese breeds a ram lamb was born which had neither the marked char acteristics Of the Siberian breed nor any evidence Of tail. Eighteen out of twenty-one Of this rams offspring have been born with tails so short that they needed no docking.
 Among the objects Of present ex. periments is that ot determining whether the strain of sheep born thus is prepotent. In the working out of this phase, all of the short. tailed breeds are being used. partic. Nlarly in the crossing of short-tailed lams with western-bred ewes.
