MANY TO EXHIBIT
HERDS AT FAIR

Formal entries and inquiries on ex-
hibiting show herds at the North Mon
tana State fair at Great Falls have
assured that the exposition's livestock
show this year win be the largest in
its history. Herds will be there from
20 states and Canada, the fair man
agement announced.
H. ]. Gramlich, secretary of the
American Shorthorn Breeders associa-
ton, has written the nations leading
Shorthorn breeders, advising them to
enter the fair show, with the result
that last years all-time record show
ing Of IL Shorthorn herds probably will
be exceeded.
That the Aberdeen-Angus show may
be twice as large as last year, when
five herds were shown, is the word Of
w. H. Tomhave,. secretary Of the
American Aberdeen-Angus association.
Tomhave expects at least 10 herds to
enter.
Inquiries on entries in the Northwest
International Hereford show are COM
ing from breeders who have not taken
part in 1t in past years, plus assurances
from those who have previously ex-
hibited that they will be there again.
Letters and formal entries from Jer-
sey, Guernsey, Holstein, Ayrshire and
Brown Swiss breeders indicate the dairy
show win be ON par with beef breeds,
with at least as many entries as last
year for all breeds and more for some.
A highlight Of the dairy cattle show
again this year viii be the dairy queen
exhibit, with the leading producer In
each Of the five breeds to be honored.
Records are being studied to enable
announcement of the state winners in
this competition.
An interesting sidelight Of the live
stock show is the large number Of IN
Quiries from Canadian breeders, who
say defense moves have caused the
closing Of many Canadian fairgrounds,
now being used for troops and equip
ment. Canadian breeders viii have little
or no chance 10 show their prize stock
north Of the border and are anxious
TO come to Great Falls.

Plan Duck Refuge
In Smith YnLLeu

Hopes for establishment Of duck
refuge in Smith valley, southwest -oi
Kalispell, were, revived with the visit
Of Pierce Mcbride Of Salt Lake, rep
.resenting the United States biological
survey, and d. E. Woodwork Of Port
land, right Of way and land man for
the survey.
The officials spent three days in
Kalispell and Smith valley, checking
up on details of the project, and stated
that a report Of their investigation will
be made soon. The project, dormant
for two years, was brought to life by
enactment Of law by the last legis-
lature giving the biological survey au-
thority to own land in the state, a
barrier when the project was proposed
two years ago.
Present plans would place about 5000
acres under water, one-third of which
is now Smith lake In order to have
adequate nesting facilities, approx
mately 1000 acres more will be re-
CURED, making approximately 5000
acres in the project A dam from to
5 feet high, just below the outlet Of
Smith lake, utilizing a natural dam
across the entire valley, would be nee
essary. 1t was estimated that construc-
ton of the project would bring about
$4,000 acres of land under irrigation

REPORT GROWTH
OF CROPS RAPID

The seasons first hot weather came
toward the end of June, when temper
atures broke through the 100 degree
mark In some north central and south
eastern localities and were mostly in
the upper nineties elsewhere. Prter to
the hot weather, scattered showers
brought light to moderate moisture
rather generally except In the extreme
northwestern and some south central
counties, and growing conditions were
generally very good.
Hail was reported from Judith Basin
IN central Montana and from three
east central counties, Dawson, Richland
and Prairie, but damage appears to
have been light outside Of Richland
where reports indicate a badly dam
aged area of about 30 square miles.
The extremely high temperatures at
the close Of the week caused some fir
ing Of crops on lighter soils, while
there was damage here and there by
grasshoppers and other insects, and in
other localities by rain where haying
was In progress.
On the other hand, reports noted a
rapid growth Of grain crops and for
the first time a marked progress in
cultivated crops such as corn, sugar
beets, potatoes and beans, which here
tofore showed a lack of sunshine and
warmth. Farm gardens also improved
with warmer weather.
Winter wheat shows very good
stands for the most part and is now
generally headed out and starting to
fill. Harvest Is expected to be earlier
than usual In Chouteau county. Spring
wheat that was seeded early is now
headed out and reports generally in
dictate good prospects. 1t is yet un-
certain as to what damage may have
occurred to grain crops as a result of
the hot weather Of the last few days.
Sugar beet thinning continues at q
later date than usual. The crop i'm
proved somewhat with last weeks
warmer weather. First cuttings Of hay
are ON the whole week to 10 days
earlier than usual. In some counties
rains have interfered considerably with
haying and some damage has occurred
TO cut hay. Fruit prospects continue
good. Lake county reports large crop
Of strawberries.
Range and livestock conditions are
quite favorable. Shearing has been de-
layed by rains and as a result viii,
In some cases, run over into July.
Farm labor needs are showing a
seasonal rise, with the beginning Of
haytng which finds supplies In some
cases rather short, especially for skilled
hands.

M'DONALD'S SON
DISCOVERED SITE
KLILLYSPELL HUT
OLD INDIAN GAVE CLEW TO
SPOT FAMOUS IN VESTS
EARLY HISTORY

It remained for Duncan Mcdonald,
noted Indian of western Montana and
son of Angus Mcdonald, Hudson Bay
trader, to discover the chimney piles
and site Of Kullyspell house on Lake
Pend d'Oreille and settle a controversy
among historians as to the exact To-
cation Of the first trading post erected
by the white man in Idaho and in the
northwest. It was built by David
Thompson of the Northwest Trading
Co. in 1909. The location is described
IN Thompsons journal which was re-
Gently unearthed in the Canadian ar
chiveS at Toronto, and has been sought
for some time without success.
Indian Recalled Spot
The assistance Of Duncan Mcdonald
and other Indians was enlisted by the
Pend d'Oreille Pioneers association.
After consulting Alex Kai Too Of the
Flathead country, aged and blind
brother Of Chief Merchelle Of the Kali
ispell tribe, who inhabited the Pend
d'Oreille region prior to the coming
Of the white man, Duncan learned
that the aged Indian had seen and
remembered the location OF these
chimneys, mentioned in the memoirs Of
Angus Mcdonald, Duncan's father
Folding his hand like bear paw, old
Alex said: GO to Mameloose island,
to a point on mainland-big rock
bear paw-just behind on level ground
you find chimneys"
And sure enough on beautiful level
site sloping gently away to the lake,
overlooking the sheltered cove in the
lea of MamelooSe island, overgroWn
with tangled underbrush, unsecured by
the ak Of civilization, stand the two
piles-the larger one evidently q double
chimney which was constructed Of flat
stones carried there by no agency other
than human hands.
The site selected by Thompson, the
trader, was logical one, as the bay
in the lea of Mameloose afforded the
only shelter for Indian canoes In the
many storms that sweep the wide ex-
panse Of open water at the mouth Of
the river, where, for countless ages,
the Indians In their migrations have
camped on the river margin fringing
the beautiful broad meadows, abound |
ing In waterfowl, fish, camas and s'kau
kausin, delicacies dear to the Indian |
heart, where the women gathered and |
stored for winter the huckleberries, |
while the men returned ladened from |
the chase.
It was here that David Thompson
found them and smoked In peace and /
Toasted on fish, sykau kausin and |
chevruil mentioned in his journal. 1t
was here that Duncan camped as a
boy. It was here that his baby sister
BUNDLED into the deep water and sank
for the last time, before the eyes of
the dismayed Indians, when the 1.-the
Iimbed mother sprang into the stream
and brought her loved one to the sur
face and to safety, mentioned in the
Of Angus, the father. Here IN
the frightening shadows OF evening,
hidden In the fringing willows many
q brave Hiawatha with the sweet notes
Of his "chili wahluc" wooed and won
his dusky Minnehaha.
The white man came with his cruel
barb wire and fenced the Indian out |
