was paying $6.25 for coal from Rock
Springs, Wyo., and SIG for Pennsylvania
coke. He needed Montana coal, and
sent Shields to look for it. Shields left
for the northwest; by rail to Ravalli.
by stage to F1athead lake, by boat to
Demaresville, a wild frontier town at
the end Of things. He QUILTED here
with three horses and 200 pounds Of
grub, and started up the roaring north
fork of the Flathead, between the
Rockies and the Carbonites. FOrding
streams, cutting underbrush, he cam
to its headwaters, where tumbled rock
strata exposed coal groupings, oil oozed
from crevices, and placer gold showed
In sand. But nowhere was what he
wanted-bituminous coking coal. With
samples Of coal, Oil and gold he pro-
filed his way back-and found the town
of Columbia Falls established during
his absence. Samples and report went
to DAILY at Anaconda, and Shields out
fitted for a trip up the south fork OF
the FQathead. A months gruelling hard
ship, more samples. more reports, and
a trip up the middle fork. At its
headwaters, in the heart of the Rockies,

and we fed only the weak animals. In
the spring we had a big roundup, drove
the cattle back to the home ranch
south of the Yellowstone, a 23-day trip
with the trail herd. Through all these
experiences I got to know the roundup,
campfire and range, the cattle days of
the early west, and the life of the old
time cowboy.
Winter of 1929 I took two more
quarters Of University work, then went
to Malta on a drafting Job for the
reclamation bureau, becoming ac-
quainted there with men who ran
horses in town and on the range. I rode
a lot with them. All this time l was
making on the average of 100 drawings
and water color studies a year which
drew attention to my work. Next spring,
1924, l worked around Miles City and
rode on three roundupS, cattle, horse
and calf. Before the end of the roundup
I had made quite a name roping and
was doing practically all the roping for
q branding crew.
I then did odd jobs on the Howard
ranch out of Miles City and before I
Left I signed up for the Minneapolis
Federal Art school course, spending my
last $40 on a down payment. This was
one Of the important steps in my draw
ing because they later sold my first
