DEATH COMES TO
WILLIAM POWERS

William Powers, vice president OF
the Federal land bank of Spokane and
former prominent northeastern Mont
ana resident died at a Spokane hospital
Sunday.
Death came on his Sind birthday and
followed an illness of 10 days and an
appendicitis operation.
Born at Lake Geneva, Wis, Nov. 7,
1883, Powers came to Montana in 1908
and located at Binville. He took over
operation of the Bainville bank ana
later organized several banks in
northeastern Montana.
Powers served for a time as secre-
tary of state under Governor John E.
Erickson, receiving the stateship by
appointment. In 1888 he was made
vice-president of the ,Fedaral Land
bank.
William Powers was interested in
the creation of Roosevelt and Sheridan
counties.

DEATH COMES TO
PIONEER RESIDENT.
OF PLENTYW00D
Rites for Mrs. |. l.. Shippee
Held in P~lentywood
Tuesday

Death claimed Mrs. l. L. Shippee,
n OF Sheridan county's earliest set
tiers, Saturday following an operation
at a Minot hospital from which she
failed to rally. Her passing thinned the
ranks of hardy pioneers who in the
early 1905 came to this section to set
tie.
Funeral services were held from the
Congregational church Tuesday. Pho
neer friends, neighbors and acquain-
tances came to pay final tribute. The
services were conducted by Rev. Earle
A. Clifford.
Pallbearers were James O'Toole,
John holman, A. j. LANCER, L. E. Helm,
Geo. Munson, L. G.. Zeidler, longtime
residents Of the Plentywood vicinity.
The body was taken to the P~lentywood
cemetery and inferred.
Born in Ontario
Born in Ontario, Can, July 4, 1865,
Mrs. Shippee's maiden name was Ell
izabeth Jackson. On January 7, 1901, at
Utica, Mont, she was married to /. l..
Shippee. A year later she came to
Plentywood to live. She resided at the
ranch home south of Plentywood up
to the time of her death. More than "a
years Of her industrious life were spent
in Sheridan county.
The pioneer Shippee home was made
of logs that had been hauled from the
Missouri bottoms near Culbertson. In
the first years of Mrs. Shippee's resi-
dence here, this section was not known
as Plentywood. 1t was called the "Cul-
bertson Country"
Pioneering experiences of the below
ed pioneer were many. She saw Sher-
idan county grow from an expanse OF
waving prairie grass, with a occas-
ional squ~atter's shack, to a territory
Of fine farms and thriving towns. Ten
years before this section became alive
with homesteaders, she resided here.
Mr.. and Mrs. Shippee in the early
days engaged in stock raising on d big
scale. As the entire government do
main became settled, the stock-raising
enterprise was gradually curtailed and
farming became the occupation.
Friends recall Mrs. Shippee's untir-
ing eSU-ts in promoting the success Of
her country during the war. For
months at a time she piled her knitting
needles in making garments allotted to
her by the Red Cross. Her neighborli-
ness, friendship and hospitality are re-
called by friends who mourn her pass
ing.
Mrs. Shippee was a member of the
Presbyterian church before coming to
Plentywood. She was also a member of
the Eastern Star.
Besides her husband she is survived
by three sisters, Mrs. w. d. Dooley, Of
Dooley; Mrs. Milton Lehner, Missoula;
Mrs. Edward Morse, Missoula; two
brothers, Ed and Clinton Jackson OF
Hermiston, Ore.

When Digging Is
Completed

Determined to give citizens an am
pie water supply following a shortage
which threatened and later became &C
ute, Plentywood's city council has or
dered continuation of drilling activities
in order to alleviate the situation.
Efforts to sink a third we'll for city
water main use in the old townsite has
proven wasted effort. A shaft ITO feet
was sunk near the site of a we'll which
was at one time productive. A flow of
water estimated at 30 gallons per min
ute was struck. The water. however,
contained sediment and was declared
unfit for consumption. A shaft sunk to
480 feet failed to produce water and
the digging in that locality was aban-
doned.
The city council is determined to
get a normal flow Of water.
The well-digging equipment has
been moved to the site of the recently
dug city well in west brentwood and
a shaft is being sunk. A flow of 100
gallons per minute is known to be at
the 230 level at the new site. The wat
er, however, contains sand. 1t is the
councils plan to install a johnson
screen at the water vein. 1t is ex-
planned the screen will clear the water.
The well will be sand-packed. By in
stalling the screen the flow is reduced
about half. 1t is her expected that the
well now being dug will produce about
so gallons per minute. The recently
completed well, which is more than
400 feet deep, is producing about so
gallons per minute.
Plentywood will have four wells
when the me now being dug is COM
pleted. 1t is believed that an ample
water supply will then be available in
the city.
A shortage which caused anxiety for
fire protection during the summer, and
which left no alternative but to dig
wells to insure an ample water supply
will undoubtedly now be alleviated.
