MORE TEACHERS
ADDED TO STAFF
Necessary to Care For Increased
EnrOlIment-TOtal Now
Over LOO

Because Of an unexpected increase
in enrolment, the total of which
now stands at 1,127, two more teach
ers have been added to the staff Of
the BOzeman public schools.
Eight of the third grade class at
the Hawthorne, which numbered A,
have been transferred to the Emer-
son where an extra class has been
organized in a separate room and
Miss Grace Street, formerly teacher
of the first grade, placed in charge.
Mrs. Glen Sands is substituting in
the first grade until another teacher
can be employed.
Al similar transfer from the Haw-
thorne to the Emerson was made for
the sixth grade, and Mrs. Avis G.
Garman Of Spokane, Wash, engag-
ed as teacher With the addition OF
these two divisions the heavy load
on the teachers has been somewhat re
duced, but the three school buildings
are taxed to capacity to accommodate
the increased enrolment.
It is probable, say school boars
members, that the Irving building
win have to be repaired and reopenss
next year.

SUMATRA SHEEPMAN
CLAIMS THIS EVE is
WORLDS CHAMPION

A three-year old eve that, its
owner claims, holds the worlds
record for production, is the pro-
perty of James GarthOfner, al
falfa and sheep king of the Mis-
souri, brakes near Sumatra.
This spring the eve gave birth
to seven lambs, Mr.. GarthOfner
claims, and if there is another
eve in the world that has equalled
or exceeded this record, he would
like to know Of it. Of all the
ewes in Mr.. GarthOfner's band,
only one produced less than three
lambs, and a number had four
each.
Next year, MIR. GarthOfner de-
clares, he will show the sheepmen
Of eastern MOntaaa a Ianbing

COLD WEATHER
DAMAGES CROPS
Loss on Apples Is so Per Cent
Potatoes Hard Hit In
Some Counties

HELENA-Damage to crops as
result of extreme cold and continued
wet weather is noted in the weekly
crop report issued by the depart
ment of agriculture in cooperation
with the Montana Extension service.
Heavy frOsts were the rule in al
most every county in the state, the
report says. Temperatures reached
five below zero in Teton and one be-
low in Granite county, the lowest
recorded for September. Snow con-
tinued in many counties throughout
the week, reaching a depth of four
feet in the coulees of Sheridan
county. Petroleum county on Thurs
day suffered a blizzard.
Damage was greatest in the orch
ard districts Of Ravalh and Flathead
counties. About so per cent Of the
MsIntosh apple crop had not been
picked when the freeze came in the
Bitter Root section. Temperatures
reached 10 above at Hamilton and
seven above at Kalispen. Where the
ground was not covered with snow
damage to the potato crop was
heavy; the loss being greatest in
Lewis and Clark and Ravalli coun.
ties. All harvesting continued at 3
standstill. Some wheat is reported
to be sprouting in the stacks anC
shocks with damage small to date
Alfalfa seed has also been injured bu-
practically all hay is up, except il
Yellowstone, where the third cutting
of alfalfa is waiting for dry weather
The long period Of rain and snov
has put more moisture in the groun
than at any time for several year

GALLATIN FAIR, HARD HIT BY STORM,
CARRIED TO SUCCESSFUL CONCLUSION
Total Attendance Estimated at
Nearly 1O,OOO-LOss, If
Any, Will Be Small

Despite the near-knOckOut blow ad-
ministered by the weather man last
Thursday, the Fourth Annual Gall
latin County fair, the best exposition
Gallatin county has ever had and one
Of the leading shows Of the North
west, rallied Friday and carried on to
a successful conclusion. Thursdays
program was put on Friday, and the
fair continued over Saturday to COM
plete the original schedule. The
weather, while somewhat cool, was
favorable. The attendance during the
three days, not counting Thursday,
is estimated at close to 10000 which
insures nearly an even break for the
financial end of the venture.
A feature of Fridays program was
the livestock parade, which brought
before the grandstand the prize win
ners of the stables and pens. The
procession was headed by Vernon
Springs Percheron stallion, champion
of the exposition, and then in turn
came Lester Thompson's Herefords,
Anceny and Child's Shorthorns, Sales
and Sons Shorthorns, Dwight Smiths
milking ShorthOrns, Bodley and Jen-
sens Guernseys, Junior club HOl-
stems, and other stock, the review
ending with H. P. Griffin's Montana
grand champion Duroc boar, Strong
heart. It was a splendid display and
one calculated to inspire pride in the
quality of Gallatin county livestock.

and splendor called for by the occasion
Miss Evelyn Roby, one of BOzeman's
and Gallatin. county's fairest daugh-
ters, was crowned Queen of the fair
before an audience of 1000 people.

the grandstand, Justin Smith, as
royal courtier, with an appropriate
speech, placing the crown upon her
head as she knelt on a purple velvet

Music for the momentous occasion
was furnished by the 163rd Regimen
tai band. The royal procession was
led by the little flower girls, Virginia
and Betty Bunker. Queen Evelyn, in
royal robes of red velvet with rhine
stone and gold lace trimming, and a
handsome ermine cape, followed with
\ Joey Gex as train bearer. Then came
Princess Thelma Cunningham and the
lady-in-waiting, Miss Bessie Daven-
port. They were met by Royal COur-
tier Smith, followed by the Royal
! Escort, Frank Lamb; Prince Maurice
johnson, and Sir Knight Lyon Wat
son. After the coronation ceremony
