able. Irrigation and water laws en-
gagged the attention of the legisla-
ture, and the water code as well as
the mining code developed out of the
new activities. Soon there were many
prosperous farmers inhabiting the
valleys, supplying the needs of the
people engaged in mining and smelt-
ing, and those serving them. Freight
rates being very high produce COM
manded renunerative prices. Grain
was raised and mills were built. Much
hay was raised which found high
cash market. The land was produc-
tive, the climate favorable, farming
was profitable, so there grew up an
agricultural population adjacent each
mining camp.

The mines, and the resulting cities,
required timber and lumber. Lumber
Jacks came out from Maine, Vermont,
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota
to work in the woods. Great forests
of pine were extensive on the noun
tain sides and in the high mountain
valleys. The first houses of the pio-
neers were built of logs. The few
boards required were sawed out by
hand in rip saw mills. Then as the
roads opened small mills were brot
in and quite a profitable industry de-
veloped which supplied the local
needs. The men employed in this oc-
cupation supplied another consider
able part of the early populations.
With the development of the west
and the exhaustion of the forest of
Minnesota and Wisconsin, there grew
up an export trade to the east from
Montana which with the local re-
ouirements, has created a large and
growing lumber industry in western
Montana.

road projects. They were considered
too big for private undertaking. The
government was urged to help. 1t
was shown to be to the nations in
terest to have these roads built, and
that the government ought to bonus
their construction. The people were
thoroughly propagandized by those
interested. The population of the
west were demanding railroads. The

EMIGRATION FROM MISSOURI


After the close of the Civil War,

Missouri and the southeast set in to

AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT

Attracted by the discovery of gold,
and the building Of the different
camps, many men came out seeking
homes in the new country, better far
nners than miners, who turned their
attention to agriculture. There was
a great demand for the products of
the farm and dairy. The prices paid
were fancy. There was great demand
for hay and grain for feed for the
oxen and mules, engaged in freight-
ing, and for the stage and riding
horses. The Mormons at Salt Lake
had done great things by irrigation,
highly developing that kind of farm
ing, and the prosDectors from Cali
fornia were familiar with the way

INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT

The miners and ranchers, the men
employed in these two industries,
dominated the state. The placer min
ing soon gave way to deep, hard rock,
mining called quartz mining, and
many silver, gold and copper, lead
and zinc mines were discovered in the
mountains about Helena, Butte, Vir-
ginia City, Silver Bow and Philips
burg, between 1850 and 1880. At
Butte the richest copper mines in the
world were developed. To handle
the rich ore from these mines or
smelters and refineries were neces-
sary, and plants were built at Butte,
Anaconda, Helena, Great Falls, and
other places adjacent to mines. Nu-
merous men were employed in the
mines and smeIters, so flourishing
cities grew up about them resulted.
Huge amounts of eastern and foreign
capital were attracted to and invested
in these mines, and also in the large
scale ranching which continued for
several years after the coming of the
railroads or until the disastrous win
ter of '86.

It really turns out to be a
treatise ON what is practical,
for the elaborate ensembles
have never gone over, in spite of
the fact that the French de-
SignerS keep on creating and
pushing them.
Fabrics Shed Snow
The best looking suits worn
in Canada and other cold points
are Of Melton cloth, a fabric
which sheds snow and is water
proof. other good materials
are English velours, gabardine,
Suedine, doeskin and corduroy.
Black, navy, dark green and
the favored colors for ski suits

sweater, scarf and cap should
provide the necessary dash of
colors, and they may be as gay
as you like.
Comfort First
Trousers Of slacks are quite
high-waisted if your jacket is
short, and they should be long
and full enough to be comfort
able when you sit down, as you
may take a spill or two, no mat

sure there's enough bag over
your boots.

and if you are at a loss to
know where to go to find a
really good English hairbruSh,
we will be glad to direct you
in a personal letter.
Olive oil is a good emolliment
for this purpose, as it has little
odor. The hair will be given an
attractive luster, and the scalp
also will receive a bit Of nour-
ishment. And the dry scalp
needs plenty of that.
Avoid Excess
There is another way Of
applying oil to give the hair
gloss luSter. In this method,
place a tiny bit Of the oil in
the palm of your hand, and
sweep your hairbrush over it.
Remove any excess Of oil
from the brush, and then
brush the ends Of your hair.
The ends should be brushed
first, as they are usually the
dryest and will remove any sur
plus of the oil.
And as the last step, smooth
the brush over your entire
head of hair carefully and
lightly. The one precaution
you must observe however, is
that you use just a slight bit
of the oil and avoid using any
excess.

are printed frocks with plain
trimmings, plain frocks trimmed
in prints or all-over printed
affairs, as you like. But all
of them are bright in color,
to wear under dark winter
coats-another version Of "win-
ter lingering in the lap Of
spring."
Accessories usually follow in
the footsteps Of frock and coat
fashions, but this season hats
are already way ahead.
Low Necklines
Off-the-face hats are the
outstanding millinery mode,
and since high hats always
mean low necklines, we're in
for a season Of deeper decolet-
ages. Which means that neck
laces will be news once more.
Naturally, no one could be
expected to go in for very much
in the way of jewelry when
wrapped to the ears in high,
swathed necklines-and pearls,
once the favorite ornament Of
the feminine throat, have been
largely relegated to decorating
the loWly oyster.
But with the open season on
necklines, hokers, shower
strands and other styles in jew
elry will come into their own
again.

Inconsistently enough, hav-
ing the blues will mean being

Blue is the best bet on the

You Can't Keep This Boy Down
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I met a girl about a year ago.
We went out to dances, shows
or walks, or stayed at her home.
She liked me, but now really
loves me. This girl has boy
friends who have automobiles,
and who could take her to more
expensive places than I. The
past six months she hasn't gone
with anyone but me. I enjoy
her company, but only as q
friend. I don't really love her
enough to marry her some day,
and I tell her to go with others,
but she won't.
I am a high school graduate
with two years Of college, but
unable to find a steady position.
I am 20 years Of age. At pres
ent, I am working part time. I
always wanted to be a chem.
ist. My mother died when I
was IL years old. My father
wanted me to be a butcher:
described education past high
school as nonsense; but by
working part time I was able to
continue school for two years at
the estate Teachers College"
For the last six years my
father never bought mJ clothes,
or even a little gift for Christ
mas or birthday. To my sister
he gave $4,000. She in turn
gave it to her husband, who is
nothing but a drunkard. Dur
ing the depression my father
lost everything.
AMATEUR CHEMIST.
It's a great pleasure to get
a letter from a boy who can't
be kept down. AS you're only
20, the world Is still your
oyster, as they say. With the
Government opening up all
sorts Of opportunities, it's only
a question Of time before you'll
find steady work and then be
able to take up your chosen
subject, chemistry.
In regard to the girl, you're
very wise in advising her to
go out with other boys, and
if you make it plain you're
not in love with her, but care
for her only as a friend, she
can't expect you to marry her
eventually. But, my dear boy,
the situation is full of danger,
and if you're not in love. be
careful.

Correct Ski Boots
Your boots, If you're ski

ski boots are grooved so that

little, and given your feet
a chance to settle into them.
Two Pairs Gloves
Most good ski-esses wear a

straps without freezing their
hands. The inner gloves may
be Of this wool, and the outer
