morning at Klickitat, Wash, where
he was visiting
Mr.. Agather, accompanied by Mrs.

visit with his father-in Law, Julius
Neils, at Portland, Ore. Apparently
he was in the best Of health and had
planned the trip merely as vaca-

friends before leaving, he showed
keen interest in seeing the new mill
recently constructed by the Neils
Lumber company at Klickitxt-

Promised Two
CarSOf Elk For
Libby District
E. NJ. Boyes Assured of
Early Shipment While at
Helena Meeting.
IMPROVEMENTS AT
FISH HATCHERY

E. NJ. Boyes arrived home last Sun
day afternoon from Helena where
he had attended a meeting of the
State Sportsmen's association, OF
which he is northwest Montana COM
missioner, and also meeting of the
state fish and game commission, with
the officials of which Mr.. Boyes en-
joys very friendly relations. He
brought the good news that the full
program requested by him and the
Libby Rod and Gun club had received
the official okeh of the fish and game
commission and that it would be car.
ried out in due time. And that wasn't
all THE good news he brought back.
The Libby district is to obtain two
carloads Of elk, instead of the one a.
announced last week, arrangements
for which were made by Mr.. Boyea
after meeting with the commission.
The shipment is to consist Of 80 head,
and they are to be shipped within .
very few days.
The elk will be liberated on the
flat north of Libby 1t was at first
planned to build pen for the ono
carload but it has been decided to
turn the so head loose. A load OF
hay will be placed where they can
have ready access to it.
Boyes had wired from Helena to
w. E. Dexter, president Of the Libby
Rod and Gun club, regarding the club
assuming the additional expense OF
the second carload Of elk. and after
comforting with club members Dexter
wired back that the club would meet
the expense. A car is being equipped
for the shipping of the elk, and II
will arrive here soon. It will then be
returned at once for the second ship
ment. says MIR. Boyes.
The commission readily authorized
the construction of the 20 new
troughs at the Libby fish hatchery
and the two new rearing ponds. Mr..
Boyes was also able to get their
authorization for the building of 4
woven wire fence around the hatchery
grounds. This will be done in the
spring.
That the fish and game commission
is highly pleased with the co-opera-
tion it is receiving from Libby people
and the Libby Rod and Gun club was
stated by Mr.. Boyes upon his re-
turn. Chairman Marlowe and other
members Of the commission told him
the Libby club took more interest and
gave the commission more co-opera-
tion than any other similar club in
the state. This naturally appeals to
the members and they are willing to
do all they can for this section, realiz-
ing that it is natural habitat for
wild game and therefore good place
in which to expend its efforts. The
commission is also highly pleased
with the Libby hatchery and with the
results being obtained here.
Valuable work has been done by
Mr.. Boyes with the commission look
ing to the increasing Of the game
resources Of this section, heartily
backed by the Rod and Gun club. It
furnishes a combination that is ac-
complishing real results for this en-
tire district.
