SPRING WHEAT CROWS LUxURIANT
FROM DOLIN'S TO kRAFTENBURC'S

On lower Arlington Coulee- three
bridges were washed out by the re
cent cloudburst One was in condition
to be used on Sunday but the others
two were in an unfinished condition
while cars made abrupt detours down
through the creek and up on the road
again. These bridges are just below
Belt Butte and were carried away by
some of the water that fell in tor
rents around the butte. Passing
these bridges one notices the fine
fields Of winter wheat on the Doljn
and Dawson ranches. After climbing
the Dawson hin and filling ones eyes
with the view over Judith Basin
county, a person begins to realize
that he is in country that looks like
the garden Of Eden. Fields Of winter
wheat are scattered here and there
Their color is as yet variegated with

7 Miles
Out Of Gt. Falls

It has been erroneously stated II
number Of press reports that tht
failure of the United States bureau
Of public roads to approve the pro-
posed resurfacing work Of the road
between Great Falls and Belt, was
prompted by the conclusion that
crushed gravel is not an adequate
type Of surfacing for Montana roads
said H. W. Holmes an engineer Of
the state highway
The fact is, said Mr.. Holmes, that
the action Of the federal bureau was
predicated solely on the assumption
that crushed gravel when subjected
to a traffic density Of more than
1000 vehicles per day, many Of which
consist Of heavy coal-hauling unita
cannot be adequately maintained
with the revenue now allowed the
State Highway Commission for this
purpose.
This matter is purely a local
problem, he declared, and win havt
no bearing whatever upon the pro-
gram Of road construction contem-
plated by the good roads initiative
measure, for, under the terms Of
this measure, an adequate mainten-
ance fund viii be available, and the
federal bureau, viii therefore con-
tinue 70 cooperate in the construc-
ton of crushed gravel highways

Of wonderful spring wheat, tall and

On Little Belt signs of high water
are abundant and fenceposts and cor

On the upper creek, here and there

old RESIDENT
OF LITTLE BELT
PASSES AWAY

Many people who read the accoun,
of the death Of Oscar PenthelkId die
not recognize it as the name Of our
old friend and 'neighbor, Oscar Hend-
rickson. The former was his real
name and all his legal papers had
been regularly drawn under that
name but among his neighbors he
was always Oscar Hendrickson.
He was born in Sweden so years
ago and came to America some thirty
years ago. Before leaving the old
country he was married to Miss An
ME Ketola. They came to Sand Cou-
lee first, then to Little Belt and
settled upon the ranch in 1897 where
they have since lived. Besides the
widow, seven children survive; Mrs
Isaac Rautio, Mary and Ida who are
at home and four sons, Charles
Frank, John and Benjamin who ars
still at the ranch which is about o
miles east of Belt.
Mr.. Hendrickson was well known
and universally respected by his
neighbors. He had been i'll for two
years and had been confined to his
bed for eight, months He passed
away Friday, July 9, while he slept
The funeral services were held in thu
M. E. church in Belt on Sunday att
1890 Burial was made in the Sand
-Goalee cemetery where two children
are buried. At the funeral Rev.
Kopri delivered the eulogy in Finnish
and the Rev. DIR. Chestnut in English. /.
A large crowd of friends and neigh /
bors were present while many others
would have been there to show their
respect to the departed if they had
been able to associate the name
Pentheil1ka with the genial, friendly
Oscar Hendrickson whom they had
known so well.

Horses are growing scarce and the
quality Of former years is lacking.
In a. hilly country such as this
horses will always be a necessity.
Any number of of ranches can be
called to mind where farm work will
always be done with horses and there
is not colt to be found on any Of
them.
A few days ago in Teton county
there was a successful wild-horse
roundup and the entire bunch, after
branded horses were picked out,
were sold to a Butte packing plant
for $3.50 head
Horses are cheap but who wants
to go back to the day of the cayuse
when it took three work horses to
weigh ton?
The horse problemsis not as serious
this year as it viii be next when two
or three of the old standbys have out
lived their usefulness.
Time was when every rancher in
the Belt Valley owned at least one
big team. Look forward ten years
and consider whether it would not be
advisable to have a few teams grow
ing up for use or for market.

which once hauled loads Of farm pro-
ducts 70 have Belt have settled down
into staid old horses whose years are
numbered. Colts are 50 rare as to
call forth shouts of delight from the
younger children who have seen very
few in their short lives. Horses may
be bought but very few teams of five
and six-year-oids may be bought at
any price and these teams usually
wsigh from 2SOO to $500 instead of
the 28OO to 5000 expected a few year.

STOCK MARKET
GOES UPWARD
Selling Pressure Lifts Today
and General List Sweeps
Forward

New York, Sept. l4-LP-Sclling
pressure was lifted from today 8
stock market with the result that the
general list swept forward in one of
the most impressive buying demon
STATIONS in recent weeks. There was
nothing in the days news to account
for the sudden shift of speculative
sentiment, but rather general feel

had sufficiently corrected the weak

Although money again renewed ut
five per cent and the federal reserve
report showed a slight increase in
brokers' loans for the week ended
last Wednesday, the credit situation
was no longer a cause of speculative
uneasiness. The rapid absorption of
recent loans, including the SIT, ZOO, 900
government of Finland issue offered
today, was accepted as proof of a
strong underlying investment de-
mand. Current earnings and sales
reports continued to give evidence of
business prosperity in widely scparat-
cd lines Of business.
Motors, which have been under
pressure recently on rumors Of fur
thcr price cuts and falling-Off in
sales, received better buying support.
Mack trucks, which has bscn under
pressure for over week. onencd two
points lower at .1l2, but had rallied
above 116 by early afternoon and
General Motors was selling five
points higher.
Heavy buying Of the amusement
shares reflected the appeal made to
the speculative Imagination. by the
recent talking pictures placed on the
market. Warner Brothers pictures
