(By MRS. NJ. e. PLAssMANN)

TyHERE was never a time when the
Northwest loomed so large in the
4 eye Of the general public as 1T does
today. This is partly owing TO the |
publicity given it through the advertls~
ing OF its resources, ETC., by the COM |
mercial organizations, in their effort TO
turn the tide of immigration this way. |
With the newly-awakened interest IN
the NOrShwest's present is the desire 10
know more of its past. We who live
here. until a few years ago were many
Of us ignorant of its early history. Now
a marked change has taken place in this
respect, and our children, through the
medium of the schools, know more OF its
early history than do the parents.
Considerable of the history OF this re-
gion is derived from letters, journals. and
reports of scientists. Several OF these
documents have but recently come TO
light and are now the treasured pos
sessions Of state historical libraries. In
acquainting the public with these dis
cOveries the press has acted generous
part Thanks are also due the men and
women who have broken their long
silence to enlighten us on this subject
The latest instance OF such contrlpu-
tons from an individual and the press,
was the notice of a letter written by
Major Frank North, published in the
Minneapolis Journal, telling the story OF
q battalion's loss during the Indian up
rising of 1865.
The discovery OF gold in Montana
served as a lure for immigrants. These
found the main travelled route via Snake
river too long. They preferred to take
the cutoff by the Powder river and the
BOzeman trail. They tried the Powder
river road in 1868. On our way to Mon
tana in that year, we met train OF mn mn
migrants who tried the Powder river
road, only to be turned back by Ind1-
ans, and were making forced marche:
TO reach Ft. Laramie before their sup
plies would give out. 1t was badly

later, in their attempt to prevent trave

caused two bodies of troops to be OF

Hunt Hidden Treasure

An alleged embezzlement Of Sibley
county, Minnesota, funds more than so
years ago, when Henderson was the coun-
ty seat, was recalled by the announce
ment that Ferdinand Altnow, owner Of
the former courthouse site, plans to seek
a $1,000 cache on his property. About
thousands Of dollars Of Sibley county
funds disappeared Since that time no
satisfactory explanation has been made,
but tradition has ii that the funds were
cached somewhere in the vicinity OF the
old courthouse which still stands and is
owned by Mr.. Altnow.

Pine Beetle CAMPAIGN

Eight camps are operating in the beetle
infested woods on the east slope Of the
continental divide, with $50 men en-
ployed in controlling the pest which is
threatening the entire Big Hole stands,
J. c.. Evendon, consulting entomologist
for the forest service said. The crews are
disposing Of the beetle-killed or injured
trees at the rate Of 500 to 600 daily, Mr..
Evendon said. They expect to conclude
their work the latter part Of this month,
despite handicaps.
The Bozeman courier., 1927-06-24

So far as flora and vegetation are
concerned, this will be a summer
among summers for vacations in the
mountains, according to forest service
officials. Normal weather, which means
little rain in July and August Will
make outings in the mountains of the
state unusually delightful, it is pointed
out.
A wet, cold spring and the uncom-
monty heavy doWnpours of rain and snow,
retarding vegetation, will prove bless
ing to those prople whose fayorite recrea-
ton is a few weeks in the highlands.
Even now in mid-June it is actually r. =, e
spring in the mountains. Flowers %h.-t,
ordinarily have bloomed and withe~ed by
this time, in many instances have Jist
reached their blooming stage. This
means that in floral effect July in realty
will be June.
The deep snow in the mountains means
] that the streams will be flowing more
than the usual amount of water during
the season, and that springs which otter
are dry will be bubbling copiously. Fish
ing opportunities should be at their bes
and the general delights of being in thu
woods are expected to be the finest IL
years.
Green July Predicted
1t has been predicted by Jefferson ma
tional forest officials that vegetation
which usually dries up by the first o
July will be green through much OF July
even though hot weather should com
this month. This means also that tn
forest fire danger will be less acute.

Catches Trout i'm Street

Charley Hughes, small son of Frank
Hughes Of Deer Lodge, caught a large ma
tive trout in the street in front of his
home. The fish, which weighed several
pounds, had escaped from Cottonwood
creek through one Of the overflows and
had become stranded in shallow water

An award Of $4,000 Industrial insur-
ance for the death of her husband, a
coal miner, was given Mrs. Mae Mich
olson by the state supreme court a few
days ago. The Judgment reverses the
district court for Musselshell county and
the state industrial accident board, which
had denied her claim on the ground that
death was the result of a heart aiIment
