horses lived, he explains, was not
mountainous, but was the shore of a
great swamp, extending, fan-shaped,
to the vicinity of the 5..se of Bismarck.
The climate was tropical. Summer
remained all year. The her5e fed on
roots, insects and cycads or palms.
Perhaps it nibbled on an occasional
magnolia blossom for the fragrant
tropical flowers were then as thick
here as dandelions are now.
In the Beartooth forest, Is permits
have been issued for the building of
summer homes for private use, while
there are four permits for summer re-
sorts that have been granted, accord
ing to H. I. Ferguson forest super
visor.
The most popular places for sum
mer residences are the west fork and
main fork of Rock creek and East and
West Rosebud While there are other
streams perhaps equally picturesque,
the points where suitable sites can be
secured are less accessible.
The largest group thus far has been
around Camp Sonia on the west fork
of Rock creek There are two permits
on the main fork and c. o. Myers has
one on the West Rosebud. There are
large number of private cottages at
East Rosebud lake which, however,
are on the land belonging to the East
Rosebud association.
The four resorts operated within
the forest are Richel Lodge, Camp Sc
MIA, Shaw's Grasshopper Glacier camp
and the Lions club camp. Other Bear
tooth resorts are on privately owned
land adjoining the forest.
In taking up a residence permit,
an application is filed designating
whether the camp is to be for COM
mercial or private purposes. Access
sibility, fishing, scenery and other
factors are considered in determining
the price which is a minimum of $40
year for private places and SIS for
commercial resorts. The maximum
amount of land granted is five acres
but in the case of private camps, only
enough is given to meet the needs Of
the builder. Commercial sites are
generally given the full five acres.
"This sort of occupancy of lands is
encouraged by the forest service" Mr..
Ferguson said. "These summer homes
thus constructed may be occupied for
weekend trips or for longer periods
throughout the year. Often families
reside at the summer home during the
entire school vacation period, the head
of the family going out for weekend
visits and for the shorter business va
cation.
"The holder Of summer home per-
NIT has exclusive possession Of spe-
cific tract upon which to build, and he
is free to use his summer home with
out restrictions except as laid down
in forest service regulations"

General Custer met death in this
country in order that the white people
could make their homes here. His
death, along with his entire command,
will never be fully understood, as
there remains no single survivor to
tell of the death struggle of the peace
makers. Where he and his men lost
their lives 81 years ago is a highly
civilized section today. At that time

Z how this stoekade was built but
doubtless it was erected to withstand
he onslsugh of the Indians by some
adventurous party who invaded the
country in the dim past. Its history
is being sought at the present time
and more than likely we shall learn
as to the tragedies that may have oc-
cured there, at some future date.
Cooke City, the western end of the
proposed highway, was first called
Clarks Fork when It was started by
Adam (sHorn') Miller in 1870. Mil
Ter was originally from st. Louis, in
1858, and made his entry into the
west at Denver and the Pixies Peak
district. He was an iron worker and
came west to prospect. In locating
Glarks Fork, he opened up the New
World mining district, comprising so
square miles of country rich in gold,
liver, lead, copper and other
minerals.
Frospeetors hearing of the find of
Horn Miller, began to flock into
g district over the mountain trails
and in 1871 the place began to take on
the appearance of a regular mining
camp. Some $50 to 200 men were
busily engaged in stalking and work
ing claims and the first smelter,
known as the Old Stone smelter, be-
gan operations in 1877. Coke was
manufactured in the mountains, as
vast deposits of timber were at every
hand. It was an expensive PROPOSE
ton, however, and but a small share
of the precious metals were retrieved
in this crude manner.
Jay Cooke, the man who raised
S700000,000 in lao days in order to
finance the Civil war, and who later
undertook the financing of the North
ern Pacific railroad, became interested
in Clarks Fork place, and after visit
ing the spot, invested in the camp.
Through gratitude, and apparently
that he would extend that
railroad into the mountainous region,
a meeting was held in the Miners Elk
change, and it was decided unani-
mously to call the camp Cooke City
The Philadelphia financier lost
every dollar he put into the Northern
Pacific railroad, but he later realized
handsomely on his investments in the
Montana mountains. The people of
Cooke City are today proud of the
name their camp bears and many of
The original settlers are glad to tell
Of the time the great man visited with
them and how the name of the place
was changed.
Today we find one large smelter in
actual operation in Cooke City, an
other that lies idle, and still another
which is under course of construction.
The mineral wealth lies in these
Mills and is onl va question of get
ting the ore out economically. 1t is
safe to estimate that in the years
this camp has been in operation, sew
aral million dollars worth of ore has
been mined,
Again we make the statement that
this country is one that should be adj

FOR LOYAL TY

THAT the eccentricities Of indivi'
dualism lie at the root of much OF
the present confusion in church al
fairs was one of the observations
made by the Right Rev. James E.
Freeman. bishop of washington, in
his annual address before the con-
yention of the Protestant Episcopal
Church in the Diocese of Washing
ton, last night at the Church OF the
Epiphany.
Bishop Freeman urged loyalty on
the part of the clergy to their as
sumed obligations to the church
that gave them their commissions
and declared that such loyalty must
be placed above self and selfish
interests.
Use of gambling devices in raising
church funds was scored by the
bishop Announcement of social
activities, dances and dramatic per-
formances from the pulpits on Sun
days was scored by Bishop Freeman.
The diocesan convention will be
held, for the first time in many
years. in a church outside the city
of Washington. Meetings today will
take place at st. Philips Church,
Laurel, Md, and will continue there
throughout today and tomorrow.
The bishops dinner will be held at

ORDERLY MARKETING vs.. DIsORDERLY
PRODUCTION
Dallas News.

Orderly marketing figures prominently in all
schemes for farm relief. The current experience Of
the Canadian Wheat Pool is illustrative Of the difficult
ties which such schemes encounter in the course Of
disposing OF a big crop. The pool, Of course, makes q
uractice Of selling throughout the year, letting the
market have what it can stand without breaking the
price. In control Of so per cent Of the wheat Of Cana
IA. IL is in position to exercise a real influence on
market conditions. But it finds itself with a carry
over Of wheat twice as big as last year at the same
time. and Is facing one Of the largest crops Of wheat
that Canada ever raised.
It is impractical to impOund the excess of this great
crop and add il to a ~carry-cver already swollen above
normal. There has to be a stopping place to that pol
icy, as anybody can see. The pool has the wheat and
will shortly have great deal more Of it. There was
nothing to do but to reduce the price at which it buys
wheat from its members. Accordingly it has posted a
cut Of l5c a bushel- This it did because the bankers
demanded that there be maintained a margia Of 15c
between what the pool paid the farmer and the current
quotations on the grain in the market.
Canadian wheat having dropped below s115, the
pool was no longer able to pay the farmer the 81 q
bushel which it had set as standard first payment 20
members of the pool. Already the farmers are crying
that the pool is responsible for the drop in prices. In
this country it is charged that the lack of such a pool
is responsible for the sag in prices. But the manage
ment of the pool says that the excess production is
responsible. Orderly marketing Of a d~isorderly rate
Of production isn't so simple as an orator on the stump
can make ii seem.
A good price in 1927 encourages a bumper crop for
1928. What is to discourage another bumper crop IN
1929? Canada has no discourager at all except q low
nrice Ia 1928. But a low price for a crop too big isn't
farm relief. II Is simply sound economics. Perhaps
that il why farm relief is q hard nut to crack.
