TO ENCOURAGE
HOME BEAUTY
HERALD OFFERS PLAN FOR
FRIENDLY COMPETITION
AMONG GARDENERS

Well kept yards and gardens en-
hance the attractiveness of a city,
increase the value of property
and are source of pleasure to
their owners and all who behold
them.
The largest degree of improve
ment in home beautifying requires
incentive and spirit of friendly
neighborhood rivalry. Most every
body takes an interest in showing
what they can do to make their
home plot look better, and in
knowing that he has something
that excells.
Ten Cooperators
The present being the beginning
of a promising season The Wolf
Point Herald begs to suggest the
following tentative plan for a
prize competition among the home
makers of the city
Let ten business concerns and
individuals offer ten attractive
prizes for five specific features in
making the home plots more at
tractive. This would include a
first and a second prize for each
feature. The first prizes to be of
value of eight or ten dollars and
the second prizes to be of half
those amounts.
These five competitions might
be-
1. The finest lawn and front
yard
2. The best assortment of flow
ers and outdoor Towering plants.
8. The most attractive and
thrifty trees and shrubs.
f. The best vegetable garden
of 1900 square feet or more.
5. The greatest amount of i'm
provement made this season in
the whole yard and exterior of
home in permanent ways.
Five Committees
Each one contributing a prize
would designate one person to act
on a committee. These ten per-
son could be made into five COM
mittees, each to have charge of a
competition and judge it. The
ten persons could select an eleven
tn to act as general supervisor,
and as arbiter, in case of disputed
matters.
Each committee would make
rules and regulations governing
it's project-dates, manner of en-
tering the competitions, the prizes
etc.
The Herald volunteers to give
two and a half years free subscrip
ton to the paper as a second
prize for any of the competitions
Are there nine others who think
we'll enough of this enterprise to
volunteer to cooperate in the
plan suggested and offer a prize
Of about the amounts mentioned?
Five first and four seconds would
be required.
The first nine to volunteer would

carrying the enterprise through.
The plan suggested is tentative and
subject to revision by the commit
ees. The Herald offers to fur
lish free any printed matter re-
luired, such as rules and instruc
ions.
If this thing is undertaken it is

The prizes could be either mer-

affair, played up during the sea-

GAS TAPPED in
POPLAR DOME
DEVELOPMENTS AT 3O81 FEET
CAUSE MILD EXCITEMENT
LOCALLY

Gas mixed with warm water
came to top of the casing in the
deep test hole being sunk on
the Poplar dome early Wednesday
morning and continued to over
flow. The gas ignited from a fire
in the drill house but was extin-
guished before damage was done.
The hole was down 30S1 feet but
the casing was so feet above the
drill point and it is believed that
the gas broke through into the un-
cased part of the hole. The hole
will be under-reamed and the cas-
ing put down to the bottom to
shut off the water. Drilling will
then continue. The hole is not
yet down to the level where there
is the best prospect of oil
Good Indication
The presence of gas is consider
ed favorable indication that oil is
near. Gas and water are frequent
ly found above the oil sands. The
very first report received here
was that there was oil with the
water. This was soon corrected.
1t is possible there was a small
quantity of oil with the first wa
ter that came to the surface.
The oil bugs along the street
were mildly excited over the
news, coming as it did only "a
hours after the final bridge okeh,
and oil stock values went up as
though attached to a balloon in
flated with gas from the well.
A Home Company
The company that is now devel-
oping the Poplar dome is strictly
a home company, the Community
Co, capitalized for $780,
900. just enough to put down a
test hole. The stock has all been
and 25 per cent or
more is held in Wolf Point Some
is also held in Culbertson, Balm

FEDERAL OFFICIALS FORMALLY
APPROVE WOLF POINT BRIDGE
DEFINITE WORD COMES TO
w. 1. YOUNG MONDAY
FROM WASHINGTON

w. L. Young, father of
the Wolf Point bridge, re-
ceived the final, definite
word Monday from Con-
gresham Scott Leavitt
that the bureau of public
roads at Washington has
formally approved the
Wolf Point bridge and
the highway connecting
with it on both sides of
the Missouri.
Mr.. Young received the same
information from the State High
way commission at Helena, who
HAD received the written approval
from Chief Engineer Thomas Nc
Donald. Following the compile
tion of plans and specifications
bids will be received for construc-
tion of the bridge and highway.
GraveIed Highway Connects
The federal officials had given
their unofficial approval of the
project, provided it met depart
ment requirements, before the
State commission went to the ex-
pense of surveying sites and draw
ing plans. The Macon site, four
and a half miles east of the city
limits, is the one approved A
state and federal graveled high
way will connect the bridge with
the Roosevelt highway and will
follow the shortest route from the
bridge to the point where the
Roosevelt highway turns north
and crosses the Great Northern
tracks; route that eliminates
the grade crossing for all traffic
from the south to Wolf Point.
About two miles of state and fed
eral graveled highway will extend
south from the bridge.
Macon Ideal Site
Engineers agree that the Macon
crossing is the best bridge site for
several hundred miles along the
I Missouri, with a high bluff at the
waters edge on the south, and a
high bank not subject to cutting
or flooding on the north. 1t is
also located where it will accom-
modate the largest amount of traf-
fic, both local and long distance.
The bridge is bound to be a tre-
mendously important factor in de-
veloping this end of Montana on
both sides of the river. Securing
this bridge, wherever located, if
at safe and suitable site, is a
piece of wonderful good fortune
for eastern Montana, and calls
forth the gratitude of the people
to all who lent their cooperation.
Opposition to it is unthinkable, on
any premise that can be found

LEAVITT BILL WILL
UTILIZE GRASS LAND

WASHINGTON, March 27.-
Early development on a coopera-
tive basis of 10S,S04 acres of
rough grazing land, between Miz-
pah and Pumpkin creeks, south of
Miles City, is provided for in one
of Congressman Scott Leavitt's
bills which has just passed the
senate and gone to the President
for executive approval.
Of this land 1854 acres are
owned by the federal government,
intermingled with the rest in such
a way that use of the entire area
by local stockmen upon the range
is greatly hampered, and the value
of the entire tract therefore SER
iously reduced, according to Mr..
Leavitt. At present, authority
exists for leasing of lands pri-
vately owned, and belonging to the
state of Montana, but there is no
law under which the dependent
stockmen may obtain leases upon
the 25 per cent owned by the
United States.
After spending two days in the
saddle, riding over the area with
interested stockmen, Mr. Leavitt
introduced the bill which has just
been passed, authorizing the sec
retary of the interior, on behalf of
the federal government, to enter
into cooperative agreements for
the use of the land According to
Mr.. Leavitt one of the results will
be that stockmen having ranches
and hay lands on the two creeks
between which the grazing lands
lie may acquire leases of long
enough duration to justify devel-
opment of water and such range
control as will restore and increase
livestock carrying capacity. The
area is but a short distance from
the range livestock experiment
station at old Fort Keogh, so that
the trained men on duty there
may easily carry on studies and
compile data as to methods of
grazing and handling the public
ranges.
