BEAVER COMING BACK
TO MINNESOTA RIVER

One of the oldest settlers of this re-
gion, one of the pioneer builders of
all time, is returning to take up his
abode, says the Minneota Mascot.
eff he is treated with consideration,
we are told, he may once more be-
come a permanent resident. This
pioneer settler is the beaver who is
now returning to the Minnesota river
and it tributaries, according to ]. AL
bert Johnson. h.
Years ago, when the first settlers
came to southwestern Minnesota, the
beaver was quite plentiful around the
Minnesota river, the Yellow Medicine
and a number of other tributaries but
with the advent of civilization was
quickly exterminated.
Within recent years, in some I'M
known manner, several pairs, or col
onies have found their way to their
former home and have attempted to
reestablish themselves, said Mr..
johnson. 81 hope that they will be
encouraged to again become members
of the wild life family of southwest
ern Minnesota"

DOROTHY DUNTON GIVES
MISSIONARY ADDRESS
Continued from Page One)

something that seems very strange
to people of other countries. The
people of the lower castles are called
outcasts and untouchables. There is
very little for the people of these
castles to live for as the conditions
under which they live are trying"
"Miss Dunton said that the custom
of child marriages which has been a
curse to the people for many years,
has recently been forbidden by law"
at will be hard to enforce this law"
the speaker stated, "as it has been a
custom of the country for so long,
but in time it will bring about a great
improvement in the health and hap
piness of the women of India"
"The women live very secluded
life and it is hard at first for the
missionary women to get PERMISSION
to visit them in their homes. In case
of illness the women physicians of
the missions are sometimes allowed
to come to the homes and in this way
they become acquainted and are able
to combine the duties of a doctor and
a preacher. Medical missions have
brought about restored health, as
well as the blessings of the gospel,
in many cases. Hospitals are main
tanned in these missionary centers
and people come from great distanc-
es for treatment, as hospitals are not
common. "
"The climate of India is very try
ing and in summer the missionaries
spend some time at higher altitude
where the heat is not so great. Many
persons are not able to stand the
climate, as malaria, fevers and chol-
era are common. A great many
American and English people are
obliged to leave the country for these
reasons"
Miss Dunton was one whose
health was broken by climatic condi-
tions and she is in this country on
furlough, spending her time in pre-
senting the work of the missionary
stations and the great need of the
people. 1t was a great disappoint-
ment to her to give up her work
there.

Much Timber
Is Contracted
For Purchase
Kootenai National Forest
FORCES into First Place
in Contract Sales.
INDICATES ACTIVE
LUMBER OPERATIONS

In report giving the amount and
value OF timber cut in the northern
Rocky Mountain district during 1929,
the district forester at Missoula gives
data as to volume placed under con-
tract for sale. The report says that in
volume placed under contract for sale,
the local forest, the Kooten2i national
forest, forged into first place for the
first time, with more than three times
the amount of its nearest rival, the
Kaniksu forest While the amount
sold is not an accurate indication Of
the amount which will be cut during
any ensuing year, the heavy increase
In sales ON the Kootenai during 1929
gives promise of marked growth in
timber operation in that forest for the
next few years. Supervisor F. J. JEFF
ferson states that much of the timber
contracted for sale is in the Troy
district.
Timber cut from the national for
ests of the Northern Rocky Mountain
district for the calendar year 1929
amounted to slightly more than ia
million board feet, valued at s454,-
04239, as against cut in 1928 of
almost 1873 million board feet, valued
at $537,20342, it is shown by the
summaries Of reports from the "a ma
tional forests of the district just COM
piled in the office of the district for
ester at Missoula. The timber sold
during 1929, while slightly less in
volume, has an indicated stumpage
value Of nearly $4,000 more than in
1928.
Of the total cut in 1929 the Occur
d'Alene forest furnished nearly two
fifths in volume and one-half in value
The Kaniksu forest ranks second with
cut of nearly q million board feet,
valued at $92,250.63, which makes it
yield approximately one-fifth Of the
total timber-sale revenue Of the dis
trict. The Kootenai forest ranks third,
having produced about one-tenth of
the timber volume and value for the
year.
The trend as indicated by the
amounts of timber sold during 1923
and 1929 is decidedly downward. This
is regarded by forestry officials as
the natural course in view of the gen.
eral lumber production and market
situation at present. The national for
ests as whole are capable of pro-
ducing several times their present
yields Of timber, and as private stands
become exhausted an upward trend
in national forest operations may be
confidently expected.

Finds That Lynx Killed Deer.

Troy Tribune: On his return to
Troy from the Yak last Saturday
with the mail, Roscoe Garrison, car
rler on the route, was compelled to
get out of the truck in one place and
remove the carcass of freshly killed
deer ~ the road in order to drive
on. Appearances and tracks in the
1neighborhood indicated that it had
been slaughtered by a mountain lion.
Arriving in Troy, Mr.. Garrison i'm
mlediately got in touch with Bob Bak-
ker of Libby, who came down Sunday
with his lion dogs and was taken to
the scene by Mr.. Garrison. On his
arrival at the point, about two miles
this sidg-o the Yak postoffice, the
dogs refused to take up the trail Of
the killers, and on further investiga-
tionIit was discovered that the deer
had been killed by lynx, probably
the first time that ever an animal Of
this species had attacked a deer, and
succeeded in doing it to death. Mr.
Baker returned the next day and left
for his home in Libby.

City Dealing
ForAirport Site

The matter Of providing NUM-
cipal airport for Libby has engaged
the attention Of Libby men during
the past week, following the an
nouncement by H. H. Fl. Clark Of the
Montana Development and Air Trans
port company that his company
would establish airs service over a
loop route from Libby to Butte and
Missoula via Kalispell and Poison and
to Spokane and return to Libby. The
matter was placed before the city
council Tuesday evening and negeti-
ations are now in progress to OBJ
tain a tract Of land lying north of
the city and Anything the present
city park.
Mayor kienitz stated it was the
sentiment of the council that if the
city should obtain title to the tract,
the clearing of the land and placing
it in condition should be undertaken
by some other organization. The tract
has been logged and there is a not
heavy second growth of timber on it,
which can be cleared without undue
expense, it is said. 1t is believe it will
be possible to clear enough Of the
tract to provide landing space even
though the entire tract is not i'm
proved at once. Under certain CON
ditions the Air Transport company
will establish hangers and other serv-
ice requirements.
AS is generally believed, air trans
portations will be one Of the big de-
velopments of the next decade and
there is considerable sentiment in the
city that Libby should get in line
and provide something in the way Of
facilities for air travel if it is pos
sible to do so. The officials Of the
company express themselves as con-
fident Of being able to develop prof
liable business and are only await
ing the providing of a field to begin
operations. Four men fr5m an adjoin-
ing town have been in Libby during
the past week, it is said, endeayoring
to get the Air Transport company to
move to their city. Arrangements
are being made to use the Lamey
field as port until permanent tract
can be provided and improved.
Clark has had workmen scraping
the snow from the Lamey field and
Billy Farris will arrive here Sunday
or Monday with plane to be chart
cred by DR.. v. A. Hannigan who is
to take business trip to Spokane,
going to the city and returning by
plane.
The c. & II. Service Station has q
truck of high test gasoline for air
plane use ON its way to this city to
supply the plane Of the Air Trans
port company while it is in the city
