early boom, Morgan D. Jones, IS. died
recently in his cabin In that region
where he had faithfully remained
though the camp has long been de-

He was one Of the most picturesque

dom highway.
Born in Wales in 1851. Morgan Jones
came to America in 1882. He served as
scout when the Santa Fe was under
construction in Arizona and New
Mexico. In 1888 he drove a half thou

MULLER STAYS ON MAT

In 1916 and 1917, one Walter Miller,
middleweight champion wrestler, ana
former titleholder in the weller division,
established a residence in eastern Mon
tana Miller, a Polish boy, reached the
top rung of the wrestling ladder, but
tried boxing before he engaged in the
field that brought him lots Of dollars
and douRhnuts. As a kid in st. Paul,
Walter regularly patronized q gym

couldn't make the punching grade An

wrestler, but in the art Of graphing he
lacked that something. This kid

CURED fame in the profession he trans
ferred to- You'll recall him as Mike

Miller enlisted with a Montana regi-

At so, he is still wrestling. For num-
her Of years, 1922-1930, he covered g
circuit In Australia, New Zealand and
South Africa. The last heard Of him
he was around Denver, armlocking his
way as light heavyweight.
Miller was booked to wreStle Henry
Irlsinger at Roundup in 1916. Irlsinger
was even in those days, a great expon-
ent of facial grimaces. He was a show
man. Miller met a young fellow OF
Polish descent at Roundup, who, like
himself had lived at Warsaw. The

IFLEECES EASILY
WASHED AT HOME
AFTER MAKING WOOL INTO BATS
BEDDING CAN BE FINISHED
AT LEISURE

When washed properly, fleeces from
the farm flock make excellent material
for light weight comforters, baby quilts,
and even pillows and mattresses, advises
( Miss Oona Stautz, extension home
management specialist at Montana
1 State college.
/ With the shearing season out OF the
way, many farm housewives nave raw
wool on hand which can be washed
/ and made into bats now and then
later on the bedding can be finished,
I Miss Sta1tz said.
To get wool thoroughly clean with
the least effort, the home manage
ment specialist advises that soft water
I Is essential. If soft water is not avail
able she recommends good softener
such as triSodium phosphate.
The first step in washing a fleece Is
to part 1t and remove all stained por-
lions and heavy locks. Unless this is
done the wool will not be pure white.
The fleece is then immersed in clear,
likewarm water. This first bath pre-
vents soap in the next bath from felt-
ing the fibers
The next bath is in a soap solution
consisting of one pound OF high grade
neutral soap TO IL gallons Of rain water,
or softened water. The temperature Of
this bath should be between ITO and
the clear water bath and immersed In
the soap solution where it Is care
fully worked with the hands or 8
wooden paddle for 30 minutes. Con-
tinuous working of the wool is not
necessary, Miss Stautz states.
At this point in the process another
bath is fixed using one-third pound of
soap to IL gallons Of soft water; The
fleece is worked gently IN this solution
for another 80 minutes. This bath
should be repeated with another solu-
ton If the first washing fails to clean
the wool
The final washing operation Is a
rinse In lukeWarm water for from three
to five minutes. Rinse again in another
soft water bath that is somewhat cool
er than the first Then dry the fieeces
in warm air and 1t is ready to make
into bats.
If the washing operation is to be
successful it Is essential that soft
water be used for every wash and
rinse, Miss Stautz cautions. She also
reminds farm women that if water
softener is used it should be put in
the water before the soap is added.
Another point to remember is that q
washing machine will not prove salts
factory for washing wool. The ag1ta-
ton felts the wool and makes 1t hard
to card.
An excellent dryer may be made for
wool by placing clean boards two or
three inches apart on wooden horses
or boxes and covering the boards with
clean sheets or other white cloth. This
type of drying rack allows the air to
circulate through the wool.
For q medium sized comforter about
two or three pounds of washed and
carded wool is needed, Miss Stautz ad
vises, and about twice that much raw
wool before securing and carding
