Success of Con Warren Is
Told by Scribner's Writer

Success Of Con Kohrs Warren, Helena
high school graduate who snubbed the
medical profession to punch cattle on
the Montana range, is told in 5000
Acres and a Microscope" by Charles
Morrow Wilson, which appears in the
September issue Of Scribner's maya
zine.
In opening his interesting story Of
the Helena boy who made good, Mr..
Wilson says: Back in 1865 Con KohrS
opened a ranch near Deer Lodge, $4,000
acres of barren mountains and broad
mesas a mile and more above the sea
level. Today Con Kohrs' grandson, Con
Kohrs Warren, manages the same
homestead, shOrn to some 5000 acres.
During these 70 years there have
been many changes in the status Of
ranching. Great ranges have faded,
great herds have tramped the glory
road, and parts of Montana herself
have drifted away in the form of dust,
but the clan of Kohrs has stayed put
Con Warren typifies the new school
of unfenced Montana just as Con
Kohrs typified the old Each is link
in a chain of natural-born cattlemen."
Times Change
The article relates that the methods
of the cattlemen of the old school and
those of today are vastly different. /
While Con KohrS battled diminishing

heed to disease that destroys fine /
cattle. He must be a cattle breeder as 1
well as a cattle grazer. He must grow

the meat. He must translate haystacks /
into steers.
Interesting to note is a page from
Con Kohrs' 1884 yearbook, written in
his prin scroll: mo. of cattle as shown

Liked Ranch Life
Con Kohrs Warren spent much of
his youth in the company of his grand
father and his Uncle Johnnie Bielen-
ger. His brother and sister were but
slightly interested in life on the old
ranch, Mr. Wilson says: "Con adored
it. He liked the surrounding mountains
bare, mustard-broWn, and capped
with snow; the game of ropes, brand
and cattle. Like his father, he poured
over books. and like his grandfather.
he kept a personal saddle horse, wan !

After finishing high school at Helena,
Con Warren punched cattle for a year
and then agreed to go to the University :

Rowe was left behind to face
paylesS paydays last week when
the Tigers started on a road trip.
Immediately the same fandom
which had idolized him in the 1894
world series began asking, whats
wrong with Schoolboy Rover" He
had just been released from hos

for a cold and a sore arm. Mana
ger Cochrane explained Rowe had
been left behind until he could get
into condition.
Offer Explanations
His case, however, attracted
wider and wider attention. Some
offered the explanation his poor
showing recently was because he
was lazy, and others that he had
tried to change from a fastball
pitcher, which he is, to a head
pitcher" trying to fool batters with
slow balls. The payoff came yes

Rowe, who won a games for the
Tigers in 1894, including a record
tieing streak Of 16 in q row, won
10 apiece in 1885 and 1896. He
