LOCAL GUN CLUB SENDS
DELEGATE TO HELENA

AT a special meeting of the Red
Lodge Rod and Gun club, held Mon
day night in the city hall, it was un-
animously voted to send the presi-
dent, Axel Nordstrom, to Helena to
attend THE meeting of the state
sportsmen association and lso to look
sportsmen association and also to look
into legislation affecting this phase of
At a previous meeting of the club
it was decided that the raising of the
present fishing and hunting license
from So to SO year was a good
thing and this sentiment has since
been approved by clubs in other sec
lions of the state. The action was
started by the local club with view
to counter-acting proposed radical
changes at this session of the legis-
lature.
A proposed bill, or at least one
that is rapidly being whipped into
shape, would make material changes
in our present laws and it was with
view to curbing radical measures
that the Red Lodge club proposed
the raise of one dollar on the present
license. With such raise, however.
1t was stipulated that the additional
dollar SO secured must be spent in
the county from whence it came. AS
there were over 1900 licenses issued
IN Carbon county last year, it is rea-
Oily seen that such an amount could
be used to good advantage in this
county each year.
In letter received from Hon. Al
red Budas, of Roberts, a member
of the lower house in Helena. he
stated that a proposed bill would be
submitted at this term, which would
ask that the law be changed SO as to
cause one to pay 81 for fishing
license, another So for bird hunt
ing license and If one wanted to go
hunting for big game it would be at
a much higher rate and necessitate
having third license. Out of the
state people would of course pay in
higher terms.
Mr.. Nordstrom left yesterday af-
ternoon for Helena, and he will use
his best efforts in helping to get som
line on sane law. 1t is apparent
that effort will be made to change
The present laws, but it will be neces-
'ary to block any fool enactments.

Buckwheat Has Feeding
Value for Dairv Cows

Buckwheat has a fair feeding value
for cattle. The woody hulls Of the
buckwheat kernels have little feeding
value themselves, but may be used TO
add bulk to a ration of other grains.
Buckwheat middlings, which are sepa-
rated from the hull in milling, contain
IS per cent crude protein and a fair
amount of fat BuckWheat bran Is,
of course, less valuable than buck
wheat middlings, and when the bran
does not contain more than half hulls
1t is regarded as about four-fifths as
valuable as wheat bran. Such bran

TESTS MAY EXTEND
FRANNIE OIL FIELD

Three wells are now drilling ON
Frannie structure, ON the Montana
Wyoming border, two on property
controlled by the Midwest Refining
company and another on Prairie Oil
q Gas company's leases, with the
prospect that one of them may ma
teriaily extend the field proven area.
Meantime, the discovery we'll,
drilled by E. H. Rosenberg of Los
Angeles, is reported continuing to
flow steadily in a manner that gives
promise that this may develop into
one of the best fields of the Rocky
Mountain area.
According to field reports, the Mid
west now has one-eighth interest
III the Rosenberg lease, with an op-
ton on the remainder which is de-
clared will represent a s1.7oO.0 900
deal if the wells now drilling come
in as producers.
The Prairie Oil & Gas Companv's
well IS the center of interest in the
field. 1t is located about a mile and
a half southwest of Frannie and is
drilling at 1,400 feet.
The producer and the two Mid
west wells now drilling, are located
approximately one mile north of
Frannie.
With the prospect thus in sight
that the field may be proven for
production over distance of some
two and half miles, residents of the
now booming town of Frannie are
now centering their hopes on success
ful completion of the Prairie we'll,
which would be the signal for an i'm
mediate drilling rush by the Midwest,
Prairie and others who own acreage

BEARCREEK AND
BELFRY TEAMS PLAY
BY Helen Forney

Saturday evening at Bearcreek the
Bearcats gave walloping to the
Belfry cagers. The Belfry boys put
up plucky fight but were practical
ly helpless against the heavy scoring
of Kastelitz and Vavich. Yanchisin
again strengthened his worthy guard
ing reputation and also added 9
points to the score. Freeman is tax
ing quiet but dependable stand
under the opponents basket this year
and their scores show the effect of
his defense. Poderjay has played a
good game at center in the last few
games but his playing is not as bril-
liant as it was at the first of the
season. Laukaitis did exceptionally
well when as a sub he added to the
score
