TREASURE STATE FARM AND LIVESTOCK :
FISH ARE DYING IN.
BEARPAW REGION
PROVING MENACE TO TROUT,
WARDEN REPORTS

Continued dry weather in northern
Montana is killing trout in streams
In the Bearpaw mountains says Leon
ard Clark, deputy game warden.
Trout at the feeding station on Beav-
er creek were distributed a few days ago
to lower parts of streams still run
ming, the warden reported, due to the
shortage of water on upper Beaver
creek.
Fish rescue work will not be at
tempted, it is said, as the cost of the
work is prohibitive, it being cheaper to
raise fingerlings.
Relief workers have been used the
last few days to clean springs along sew
eral main streams in the mountains in
an effort to increase their flow.
Upper stretches of Beaver, Clear and
Box Elder creeks on this side of the
mountains are dry, as are lower por-
lions of the same streams . Some water
is still flowing in middle stretches of
the streams.

SHEEP PURCHASE

REPORTS SITUATION

The bureau of agricultural econ
omies reported the situation con-
fronting the sheep industry today
"the most serious ever known. Farm
| administration relief officials continu-
ed plans to purchase 5,00O,0 900 sheep
in the drOuth SCARED west.
The purchase plan, which probably
would bring to western Sheepmen DE-
tween 81, OOO, 900 and 100000 in ben
efits, was being delayed by a ruling by
Comptroller General McCarl that AAA
funds could not be used for that pur-
pose, but it was said officially that
there was no present intention OF per-
hitting McCarl's decision to halt the
program.
Purchase of the sheep, either through
the Federal Surplus Relief corporation
or under the agricultural admln1stra-
tons broad power to remove SURPRISES,
was in prospect. The comptroller gen.
erals opinion closed the door only to
the use of farm administration cattle

nally act passed at the last session OF
congress but would not prevent use OF
other funds under the Interpretation OF

with pastures and ranges the poor

much the smallest IN 40 years at least,
with forage crops and other roughage
equally short and feed grain production

situation facing the sheep industry, as
well as that of other livestock, IS the

In view of these conditions, it seems
hardly possible that a sharp liquidation
of sheep numbers al be avoided.
If the agricultural adjustment ad-
ministration should buy ewes in the
more critical drouth areas, those suit
able for food would be slaughtered foz
relief distribution and those unfit for
food would be condemned. Even with
western flocks thus reduced by the
elimination of perhaps 100000 older
and weaker ewes as a result OF govern

Bison Sta,npeded by
Flaming Forest Fire

Frantic animals on the national bison
range, east of Dixon, fled n night
recently from the advance of a forest
and grass fire which swept across the
government reserve on which are con
fined hundreds OF bison, deer, elk, and
other animals.
The flames whipped through grass
and timber within a short distance of
the Clark's fork highway, threatening
to destroy the range fence and permit
the escape of the beasts.
Flames were visible along the road
between Dixon and Ravalli for about
two miles, and observers estimated that
several thousand acres of range land
and trees had been burned.

Whistling Geyser Is
Showing Eruptions

Shortly after the long-awaited erup-
tons of the Giant and Beehive geysers
recently in Yellowstone national park,
another geyser, the Whistle, returned to
action at 8 a. m. Aug. 4. This was the
first recorded eruption since July 10,
1881.
The Whistle is unique because of the
great noise that accompanies the rush
of steam and water. Workmen heard
the shrill whistling nearly a mile away,
they reported. So violent was the erup-
ton that a crust of ~vari-colored algae
was blown off the formation.
