g. W. Rouse Punched
CottIe With Russell

The following article taken from
the Great Falls Tribune of several
years ago gives a colorful account
of the early life of Geo. w. Rouse,
pioneer resident of the Libby dis
trict, who passed away recently.
Special to The Tribune
LIBBY, Feb. 8.-There is dairy
ranch in the pine country at the
edge of Libby, where an aging
Montanan is spending the ripper
years Of his life helping his son
with the milking and other ranch
tasks. He remembers other days
and other cows than the patient
bossies OF his corral. The man is
G. w. Rouse, known in other days
as "Bill' Rouse. Though he has
lived on the Libby ranch for 26
years, he remembered years when
he rode the range as cowboy with
Charles M. Russell in the Fort Ben
ton and Judith basin sections.
Il had charge of the Shonkin
Stock associations cattle for II
years in the country south of Fort
Benton. l went up There in 1882.
l put in 80 years of my life chas-
ing range cows and part OF that
time I was with Russell in the
Judith basins first roundup.
Russell wasn't cowboy then.
He wrangled the horses at night.
worked with him for five seasons
and only one summer did know of
him punching cows. He was, first
of all, horse wrangler. Charley
was as fine a scout to ride and
work with as | ever knew. He was
a real man, | tell you. He was al
ways drawing pictures and foolin'
with clay, modelling figures of cat
tie or horses or some fellows head.
He'd carry a bunch of clay in his
pocket and in his off time was either
making things of it or drawing pen
Gil sketches"
Other memories of the days when
'life was on the hoof," with home
taking the shape of a bed wagon
and mess wagon, were recounted
by Mr.. Rouse. The years before dry
1anders turned the bunch grass un-
der, to make Montana range into
farming country, were much more
profitable than any years since, in
his opinion. The range was meant
for cattle, he says, and the years
since have proved that the Leef
industry should never have given
place % the dry farm.
Mr.. Rouses wife is the business
manager over his present Job and
their home in Lincoln county is an
ideal farmhouse, with big windows
and fireplace to1make a comfort
able bedding down place when
evening comes and the milking
chore is over. Montana has been
the old cowboys home since 1881
and the oldtimers that have kept
in touch with him through the
years are still the best people on
earth to him. He seldom leaves the
ranch and its hospitality is OF the
famed old western variety. There is
always room for another chair at
the Rouse table and pot luck leaves
no one hungry.
Exchange of memories of the old
days when Montana's industries
centered around the COW country is
always part of the program when
MIR. Rouse's brother-in-laW, Glen
A. Smith, of Missoula drives to
Libby to inspect the forest and
visit. Smith is a former resident
of Libby and still owns ranch
near the Rouse place that he visits
whenever he can leave his duties
as associate regional forester at
Micrry.1o
