The winter of '86 was a terrible
winter. Tt set in early, was extreme
ly cold, the snow was unusually deep,
and the spring excessively late.
Thousands and thousands of heads of
cattle and horses perished on the
ranges and their bones mingled with
the buffalo bones in whitening the
plains, and went along with them
later to the sugar refineries. The old
timers tell stories still Of the terrible
ordeal. Charles Russell, the noted
western artist, became famous with
his picture of the tragedy Of this
winter, with the 'Last of the Herd"
and Waiting for the Chinook"
Most of the large ranchers were ir-
reparably ruined, and bonanza ranch
ing as the results of this winter and
the fencing off of the water by the
settlers, received its death wound.

SHEPHERDS COME

But in the early laineties, shep-
herds, hearing of these plains, COW
cred with rich grasses, came over
from Scotland to run sheep. Other
men read of the fortunes made in
sheep in Australia. Investigation
found there was much more money
in sheep with wool and mutton to
market, than in cattle and horses, so
sheep were introduced on the ranges.
They thrived and paid fat dividends.

such as '86, when there is tragedy on
the plains. Even today the farmers
usually turn the horses and cattle out
to hustle for themselves during the
winters over the fields. So the Ranch
er did not have to provide winter
fodder, and his principal work was
riding the ranges, keeping an eye on
the stock, rounding them up and
branding them in the spring, and
then cutting out the shipping stuff
in the fall, when he made the
long trip by railroad to the markets
an annual event in his life.

able, the careful rancher dug irriga-
ton bitches and plOwed land which
he seeded to alfalfa for hay which
he stocked against the hard winter,
thus insuring himself against catas-
trophe. Every rancher irrigated
small plot for a garden and the rails
ing of some garden and vegetables
for use on the ranch or for shipment
to the mining camps The irrigated
crops were bountiful--in fact better
crops were not grown anywhere. No
one dreamed that "dry farming
could be ever followed successfully
on these plains, or that the govern
ment lands would ever be homestead
ed, and the rancher thot that the Op-
en- spaces back from the water would
be free range, forever, and that as
he controlled the water he would
have the range always for pasture,
free from any investment or taxes,
the old cattle business was founded
on free range.

WAR BETWEEN RUSTLERS AND
CATTLE KINGS

There was war for a number of
years between what was left of the
big cattlemen and the rustlers. The
big cattlemen burned the homestead
ers' hornes, cut the fences and killed
and scattered their cattle, but the
nestor rebuilt his home, repaired his
fence, appropriated some of the other
fellows calves, and organized with
his neighbors for defense. The fight
was bitter and reflected itself in po-
litical lineups: the big cattle men in
the republican party and the srustler
in the democratic party. In the end
the settlers won, the big rancher quit
in despair, and on every creek, and
water hole, the small ranch was to
be found. Ranching on a small scale
had been made practical and profit
able by the railroads and cheap trans
portation. The small rancher raised
both cattle and horses horses are
hardy and good rustlers, and the
horse market in the east was steady
and prices were high.
CATTLE RANGE ALL WINTER
The altitude of the plains any
place is not less than 1000 feet, and
from that as high as 5000 feet, above
sea level. The air is light and dry
and clear, so the sun shines bright
even on the coldest winter day. The
winds from the south, southwest and
west are always warm. The rich
grasses cure on the roots and as the
snowfall is usually moderate and
melts quickly in the bright Montana
supShlne, the cattle and horses pas
ture the range all winter, usually
coming thru IN good shape in the
spring, except IN unusual winters

RANCH SIMPLE AND ROMANTIC

The ranch life was simple, easy and
romantic. The rancher living large
ly out doors on horseback was
healthy and strong and nervy. The
cattle and horses made him an easy
living. He saw nothing in the future
to disturb them, and looked forward
to endless prosperity.

MEN ARE SUCH FOOLS TONIGHT
 AT THE CAPITOL
Drama of a Musician and His Cabaret Singer Wife
 Last Times Tonight

Men are such fools to believe in women, according to RKO-Radio Picture, Men Are Such Fools, featuring Leo Carillo, Vivienne Os- borne, Una Merkel and Joseph Cawthorn showing at the Capitol Theatre tonight.
 Certainly Tony Mello. played with feeling, humor and intelli- gence by the incompatible Car rillo, is a fool to love his wife, Lill, so madly, for she married him only because she thought he would become famous and could bring equal fame to her. And then she left him after Tony had been sent to prison for assaulting her lover
 But Tony couldn't help loving Lila any more than he could help hearing beautiful music in his brain and putN1g it on paper. Even the great sorrow of Lilli's infidelity and the confinement and restraint of prison life did not stifle the flame of his genius. Through his music he worked out his own salvation.
 Thomas Lennon wrote Men Are Such Fools" to provide a vehicle for Leo Carrillo and has given this splendid actor a role that many will feel is his greatest It is one of tremendous emotions. Vii vienne Osborne makes the pretty but shallow wife very human. Una Merkel is lovable as a hat check girl whose unrequitted love for Tony wins your sympathy. Joseph Cawthorn, Tom Moore, Earl Foxe, Eddie Nugent, Paul Hurst and oth- CTS acquit themselves splendidly. William Nigh directed with deep feeling. Men Are Such Fools" is highly entertaining emotional exercise.

'" PANAMA FLO" { SHOWS TONIGHT
 AT COLISEUM
Helen Twelvetrees' Great i, est Vehicle Playing To- l night and Thursday

For the first time since Her Man." Helen Twelvetrees again reverts to the type of characteriza- ton which won her stardom in Panama Flo" an RKO-Pathe pie ture which opened an engagement of three days at the Coliseum Theatre last night.
 But the current production, which presents fast moving story of thwarted love and anguish against the intriguing background of Panama and South America, gives the beautiful star an even greater opportunity to display her emotional ability. She makes the best of such opportunity by giving the greatest performance of her screen career.
 This, in itself, was not easy be- cause she is pressed at every turn by the splendid efforts of Robert Armstrong and Charles Bickford.
 The story revolves about the ac- tivities of girl who ends up in Panama honkey-tonk after be- ing deserted by her sweetheart. Forced into tricking a drunken oil man, she is double-crossed and forced to accompany the wild catter' into the jungle home as the housekeeper in order to work out her debt She is followed by the unfaithful lover who attempts to rob her employer How she fares from that time on provides a eli max with twist which is bound to hold and please any audience.
 Ralph Murphy handed the di- rectoral end of the producci0n with precision and finesse. getting every bit of drama out of the story and keeping it moving at rapid pace.
 Others in the supporting cast are Paul Hurst, Maude Eburne, Reina Velez, and Marjorie Peter son.
 Panama Flo" is an original story by Garrett Fort.

Thrilling Shots Not Talked in Bring Elm Back Alive
 Previewed Tonight

Frank Buck, who is responsible for most of the Far West wild animal specimens seen in the American ZOOS and circuses and who is the author of Bring Elm Back Alive" which will be pre- viewed tonight and shown regu- larly at the Coliseum Theatre to- morrow, had an entirely new ex- perience when he took camera men on his expedition through the Malayan jungles to film authentic scenes for the RKO-Van Beuren picturization of his famous book.
 This time we had a camera along for the first time" he re- minisced, and instead of running away from deadly dangerous epi- sodes like combats between formi- dable beasts, we hoped to witness some. We stalked a hungry tiger until he came upon another hun gry beast and had to fight to pro- tect his kill One of the biggest thrills I ever got was after we had been following the tracks of a big nine-foot man-eater for days and suddenly came upon her in clear ing standing over a young wild boar she had just clawed down.
 "A black panther sneaked up, and in about a minute there was enough black and yellow fur fly ing to make a Princeton football pennant."
