GOLD CLAIM AT
COOKE IS SOLD
Boom Times in New World
District Are Expected
Next Summer

Sale of a seven-eighths interest
in the New Years Gift claim, pro-
Queer of the top-soil pay dirt near
Cooke, was reported last week
from Livingston. The interests of
J. G. Villas of Livingston were
transferred to Leonard e. Grit
fifth of Townsend, who in turn is
leasing the property to Walter
McLaren of Dayton, o., who has
been carrying on a profitable pro-
duction of the $70-a-ton clay that
is found on the east slope of Red
mountain and other places in the
New World district.
Prospecting and development
work of Walter and Alexander Nc
Laren during the past summer
has brought forth convincing evil
dence of gold bearing deposits
that has aroused a renewed inter-
est in the whole district.
The increase in the price of sill
yer, from about 25 cents to about
as cents an ounce, the highest
price in three years, has helped to
stimulate the activity Of claim
holders in the New World area
this district having been origin
ally prospected as a lead-silver-
zinc field, although the presence
of gold in the region has always
been recognized.
During the past summer Cooke
experienced a Doom such as it
had not felt for years, and yet,
community observers now say the

OIL CONTRACT
TO Be LET TO
GROVES & SON
Cooke Highway Route Will
Be Scene of Activity
Early in Spring

For oiling AZ miles of the Red
LODGED Cooke highway, a contract
has been recommended for the
same company that will gravel
the highway from Twin lakes over
the top, S. J. Groves & Son of
Minneapolis. That company sub
mitted the low bid of $109,389 on
the job, which includes the plac-
ing of $4,000 feet Of timber guard
rail.
When bids were opened at Port
land, Ore, last week, it was
found that the Groves proposal
was $61 lower than that sub
mitted by the Morrison-Knudsen
company, which company recently
completed surfacing contracts on
the road between Red Lodge and
Twin lakes. Nolan Brothers of
Minneapolis made a bid of $118,-
166.
A great part of the amount of
the contract will be spent for con-
struction of guard rail, said Harry
E. Mitchell, resident engineer. The
railing will be of the rustic type,
built of native fir poles.
The oil coat will be a "dust
coat" or palliative layer on the
new gravel that will be laid on
unit B next summer, and on part
of unit d. The 12-mile unit A
section, from Twin lakes north
down the Rock creek canyonside,
which was graveled last spring,
also will be oil processed under
the contract.
The Groves company will begin
operation early next spring, ac-
cording to Mr.. Mitchell's cores
pondence. In April it is planned
to send plows and blades over the
route from Red Lodge, to break
up the snowdrifts and clear the
road for truck traffic. Tt is
Groves intention to work rapidly
on the job and complete it as
early as possible next summer.
Gravel crushing machinery will
be set up near Long lake, and
trucks will work both ways on the
highway from Twin lakes to the
Clark's Fork river. A crew of men
will be employed in getting out
guard rail timber from the stands
along the river.

TOURIST PARK
CONSTRUCTION
IS UNDER WAY
Fifty Lodges Will Be Able
To House Total of
ITO Tourists

While timber crews i'm the
national forest started to get
out cabin logs for the Red
Lodge municipal tourist park,
the work of clearing and pre-
pairing the old city auto camp
for l~andscaping was begun this
week under direction of ID. Nj.
Marine.
A score of men, workers from
the relief rolls of the county, are
employed on the location, with
teams, scrapers, plows, fresnos
and brush hooks. Obstructing
trees and stumps are being cleared
and the ground is being leveled.
George Headington is in charge of
the crew that is doing this pre-
liminary work.
After the area has been cleared
and cleaned up, said Mr.. Marine,
the locations of the cabins will be
determined. Construction of the
buildings will be started next
spring Immediately thereafter.
Next spring the work of landscap-
ing the site will begin-planting
of grass and shrubbery and plac-
ing flower beds according to the
design Of the camp that is being
worked out by Mr.. Marine and
others.
Maps and blueprints of the
park, and detailed blueprints of
the buildings are being worked up
by MIR. Marine, who also is pre-
pairing estimates of the cost of
construction, in order that the city
may file an early application for
funds from the public works adj
m~inistration.
There will be so lodges in the
original group, which can be ex-
panded in later years. Thirty of
the lodges will be modernly
equipped and furnished log cab
ms, with Accommodations for four
people. They are to have built-in
bathrooms, and be furnished with
gas stoves and heaters. Ten of
the 80 cabins will give accomoda-
tions to three people each, and the
other ten will be smaller lodges,
built to accommodate one or two
people. 1t will be possible to house
ITO people in the so buildings. All
will be equipped with electric
lights. Public shower-bath houses,
restrooms and laundering rooms

OF
WATER USERS IS
PROVIDED BY LAW
Decree Owners Might Unite
For Common Good Under
Suggested Method

Of interest to owners of de-
creed water rights is an act Of the
state legislature, to provide a leg
al organization for the water own
ers, so that they may express
their wishes and objects to the
courts, the legislature or the pub
lie. Every water user should read
it, in chapter lit of the last ses-
sion laws, said Judge Robert G.
Stong, in Red Lodge last We'd
nesday.
The act as explained by Judge
Stong, provides that a public
agency may be formed in districts
Of at least 1000 acres Of land
having decreed rights from a COM
mon source, such as Rock creek.
1t is formed by a petition, signed
by 60 per cent of the individual
owners of 81 per cent of the lands
and decreed rights set forth in the
decree. The petition is filed with
the court, which mails notices,
and calls a hearing.
At the hearing, if it appears
that the petition has sufficient
number of signer, the water users
district is formed, and five water
owners are appointed as trustees.
These five trustees form the
board, and they are then in charge
of affairs, and the court has no
further control over the organiza-
ton.
The act provides that on the
first Monday of March in each
year, the water users will meet
and select the trustees to serve
for one year. The board of trus-
tees is authorized to develop the
channel of the stream and in other
ways improve the source of sup
ply.
The formation of such an asso-
citation in no way endangers the
ownership of a water right under
the decree.
AS the legislature may give
some attention to sources of sup
ply for irrigation, and the federal
government being willing to adj
vance money to assist existing
systems of water supply, such an
agency would be an effective
means of obtaining aid, said Judge
Stong. The act provides a way
for water users to deal with this
matter with their own organiza-
ton.

wheat BOARD IS
STRIVING TO CUT
Acreage FIGURES
Over-run Must Re Reduced
Before Contrqcts Can
Be Completed

County wheat allotment COM
mitteemen, A. f. Boggio, t. G.
Schrumpf and E. r. Dingus, for
the past several weeks have been
busy with the task of making adj
justments in acres and production
figures of the application for al
lotment contracts.
This has been a 5icavy task.
Carbon county yet has too large
an acreage, which must be pared
down somehow before the con-
tracts will be accepted by the
wheat section at Washington, and
the committee is working night
and day to seek out surplus acres
in the county. The committee
would appreciate voluntary re-
auctions on the part of those who
have a larger acreage than they
are entitled TO, and ask that they
check their acreage in wheat care
fully for the base years 1930-1932
and report to the committee. The
government is determined that
there shall be no more acres re-
ported than were actually planted
in wheat, as a reduction based on
paper acres" would defeat the
purpose of the whole program.
Several complaints have been
filed with the committees as to
excessive acreage and production
reports. A few remain to be adj
justed, and the committee would
appreciate the cooperation of all
members in making these adjust
ments.
The allotment committee, with
George W. G~ustafson, emergency
agricultural agent, attended a dis
trict meeting of allotment com
mittees at Billings on Monday, to
consider the problems before the
wheat growers of this section.
There is an over-run of acreage
in the wheat allotment program OF
the state amounting to Is per
cent more than official figures. "A
reduction to that extent must be
made before contracts are signed
and sent to Washington. The ov-
er-run for Carbon county is some
what less than the state average.
To offset the reduction acres,
the official county production in
bushels has been increased, where
by the county average will be
raised above IL bushels for those
who go in the county average, said
Mr.. Gustafson this week. This ar
rangement was worked out at Bill
lings between the allotment COM
mittee, the state board of reviews
and a representative Of the wheat
section of the AAA at Washing
ton. The further cooperation of
all concerned in making the
necessary reduction will help to
bring about an early completion
of the allotment in this county.
