never be satisfactorily established.

John Burkman stood watching the gay

ridge and down into the valley that
was destined to be, for them, the val

holding back Clusters hounds, Bleuch
and Tuck. who were yelping. their
eagerness to follow their master. But
John says he saw little yellow dog

attention. Two days afterwards, when
they began burying the dead, that
little yellow dog was still up on the
hill, shifting around among the bodies
for his master."-(Old Neutriment.
Page 1922
Much has been written of Comman-
che and of Curly but, in all the volumi-
nous material on the Custer battle
there seems to be only one reference,
other than John Burkman's, to that
other survivor-the yellow dog. In "A
Warrior Who Fought Custer" by Mar
quis. Wooden Leg says:
"a dog was following one Of the
Sioux women among the dead soldiers.
I did not see any other dog there,
neither on that day nor on the day
before when the fight was on"
Two Indian Scouts
John Reynolds, until his recent
death, was acclaimed the oldest living
stagecoach driver in Montana. He told
me that in June of 1876 he was at
Judith Gap, beginning his career as
a stagecoach driver. He remembered
how startled they all were there when
two Indians, both wounded, staggered
into the Gap, bringing the first news
of the battle. They told of how Clusters
command had been completely wiped
out. They gave detailed descriptions of
the fight which were later verified,
They said they had been scouts under
had managed their escape after being
wounded. We see no reason to dis
credit their story. 1t would not have
been difficult for two Indians in that
horrible melee, to have escaped. But,
If their story were true, then they have
robbed the little yellow dog and Curly
and Commanche of their fame as be-
ing the only survivors.

Water conditions in our state in the

adopted as to bag limits as a conser-

In addition to. the change in bag
limits, the commission also decided to
keep four major rivers open to ling
fishing throughout the year. Two closed
areas were established.
All of the Yellowstone and Koote-
mai rivers are to be open for catching
of ling by set lines throughout the year.
All of the Missouri except that portion
between the Hotter and Morony dams,
also will be open for that purpose.
A section of the Clark Fork of the
Yellowstone river from the bridge one
mile north Of Belfry to the Wyoming
state line will be closed, but the re-

Yellowstone Park Supplies
Elk for Restocking Ranges

All sections of the United States,
with the exception of the desert
areas, were originally we'll stocked
with many species of big game
animals but the expansion of ag-
ricultural operations robbed these
larger species of their range while
uncontrolled h hunting permitted
practical extinction of such ami
mails as elk, buffalo, deer and
others.
After conservationists had secured
the enactment of adequate legislation
designed to protect the game resources,
it became desirable to attempt to re-
stock some ranges which were not
suitable for agriculture and had es-
capped the pillow. Yellowstone national
park was called upon to supply elk
for restocking and was in a position
to respond because the winter range
of the northern herd was accessible
during the winter months which is
the best time to successfully trap live
elk
Although some elk had been shipped
to geological parks previous to that
time, the year 1912 marked the be-
Va laI SC-oSdIt lOl
restocking purposes. During the sea-
son the state of Washington secured
LOG while 30 were transplanted to Gla-
cier national park. Since the inaugu-
ration of the policy of disposing of
surplus elk by live shipments, over
5000 have been successfully trans
ported to other areas where they have
served as the nucleus of new herds or
have added new blood to other bands
whose numbers had been seriously de-
pleted.
Encounter Difficulties
The job of securing wild animals
such as elk is surrounded by difficult
ties Attempts to handle them in the
same manner as domestic range stock
have been uniformly unsuccessful as
they cannot be driven or herded BY
men on horseback. The one factor
which makes their capture possible is
the winter snow which drives them tt
the lower elevations and puts drastic
limit on the available forage. Only
during the winter months when they
feel the pangs of hunger can they bt
lured into traps by the hay which i:
scattered both inside and outside tht
corrals.

F. H. A. 10 Be Entire|i
5ek-5upporting,
Mcdonald Says
Administrator Asserts
Insurance Reserves
Will Be Increased

The Federal Housing Administra-
ton will be entirely self disappearing
In the next fiscal year, even to the
extent OF adding substantial
amount of its insurance reserves.
Administrator Stewart Mcdonald
announced today.
Estimates of the administrations
income in the year beginning July
/, 1910, show revenues of more than
S22000,000. This amount will be
sufhcient to cover expenses, which
probably will be about the same as
this year, or $l3,80O.OOO, and to add
more than $8,5000OO to the mort
gage insurance fund and the hous-
ing insurance fund, maintained to
meet possible losses on mortgage in
surance.
Income Rising Steadily.
Income of the F. H. A. has been
rising steadily, Mr.. Mcdonald said.
Next year 1t will take a further
Jump due to the growing volume
OF mortgage insurance business and
the institution of an insurance
premium for lenders under the Title
modernization and repair loan
program. At the same time in
creased efficiency will permit the
r. H. A. to conduct its operations
without increase in cost.
Up to now the F. H. A. has paid
q major part but not all of its op-
Grating expenses out of income. The
remainder, in a decreasing amount,
has been paid by the Reconstruct
ton Finance Corp. upon the au-
thorlzation of Congress. This was
done to enable the F.. H. A. to main
tain offices in sparsely settled States,
where the volume of business was
not sufficient to put the F. H. A.
on a completely self-sustaining basis
while it was building up its insur-
ance reserves out of income.
Thus for the first time the F. H.
A. will not need assistance from anv
outside source in the next fiscal
year. Congress will not be called
upon to authorize any expenditure
by the R. F. c. for the F.. H. AS
expenses and will merely have to
approve the F. H. AS employment
OF its own funds toward this pur-
pose.
100000 From Insurance.
The largest share of the F. H. AS
income in the next fiscal year will
come from insurance premiums paid
on mortgages already in effect.
This, it is estimated. will exceed
100000 In addition, initial in
surance premiums on mortgages,
written during that year will amount
to an estimated $3,5O0,OOO. Fees re-
ceived for the examination of mort
gage loan insurance applications
are estimated at more than $780,
600, Premiums from borrowers in
order to pay off mortgages in ad-
vance of maturity will total about
S500,000. Premiums and fees paid
on large-scale housing mortgages
will total about $1.5OO,OOO, while fees
and premiums paid on moderniza-
ton loans will exceed $3.000,OOO In
come on investments will amount to
about 100000. bringing aggregate
Income to more than $4,000 900.
Expenses will be paid out of the
mortgage insurance fund and the
housing insurance fund and out OF
Title premiums. There will be a

Life Insurance Tie-up
With Mortgage Popular

Life insuring the home mortgage
is becoming increasingly popular
among home buyers and builders,
according to Joseph c. Behan, chair
man Of the Annual Message of Life
Insurance, which Is being observed
throughout the Nation this week.
For small additional sum on
the carrying charges, usually
amounting to approximately / per
cent Of the mortgage, the home
owner can guarantee that his FAM
lily will be left the home and not
merely burdensome mortgage, in
the event the family head dies"
said Mr.. Behan. And one-third Of
a million family heads will die this
coming year and each year there
after" he added. 80 this is not a
vague and indefinite question for
the home owner. Within the next
three years-the most common mort
gage term-at least 100000 fam.
lily heads will have died.
I'm cases where amortization is
required with the mortgage, the pol
icy may be reduced as the period
advances, so that the carrying
charge for this protection is reduced
in keeping with mortage size. This
may be accomplished in two ways,
either by having the face amount
OF the policy reduced year by year
or by writing the full sum in sew
eral small policies and dropping one
at a time as the mortgage is re-
duced, unless they are desired for
other purposes after serving this
use. Some companies write a pol
icy which does the same thing by
automatic reduction each year."
