Come Bourd Clui1ns
Good Season Ahedd
For Stdte Hunters

The farmer, the stockman,
the miner and the business man
are promised a good year in
various reports-Well, the sports
men of Montana are in line
for a happy fall too.
Bob Cooney, head of the res
toration division of the State
Fish and Game department.,
says this year has been just as
favorable for game as it has
for domestic animals, and that
makes it a good year for the
nimrods. Deer, antelope, elk and
moose are rolling in fat due to
the good forest and range
growth. There was some winter
loss in elk and deer, but not
enough to affect the states
herds. ="
There has been an increase
in the number of grizzly and
black bears, but the grizzlies
are found only in remote will
derness areas. The open season
on them in the South Fork of
the Flathead will begin October
l. Elk and Mountain goats will
be legal game in that area the
same day. The season on black
bears will close November Is
it has been open since April
Is. The general elk and deer
seasons open October is and
run to November Is.
Although there was an in
crease this year in the sage
hen population, the game COM
mission decided to let them
have another year of rest be-
fore opening a season on them.
The board has yet to decide If
grouse and prairie chickens will
decorate Montana tables this
year. -
There has been a definite in

Three Governors in
Party Touring
IYeIIowfaiI Dam Site

Continued from page u
ernor Ford, who in turn intro
duced the distinguished guests
and spoke briefly.
On being called on by Daniels,
Mr.. Funston suggested that in
recent references to c%onstruc-
ton of the dam, all statements
seem to end up with eff funds
are made available" -
Governor Ford responded with
the assurance that he and Cen
eral Pick had agreed that the
eff" be promptly eliminated.
Before the group left the
dining room for the inspection
tour, Engineer Herdman gave a
brief outline of the proposed
dam. He stressed the fact that
there were no Indian homes in
the canyon and very few white
homes on the land to be flooded
The dam will be entirely in
limestone, making an ideal dam
site. Because no construction
appropriation was made for this
fiscal year, things are more or
less at a stand still, Mr.. Herd
man said. He added that should
money be made available for
the coming fiscal year, actual
construction of the dam could
begin the next spring.
An access road and living
quarters would have to be built.
The dam will be 500 feet high,
1,400 feet long. 35 feet thick at
the top and 299 feet thick at
the bottom. The lake will be u
miles long. The total reservoir
area will be 1865 acres and
the proposed IRRIGATION will be
in excess of $1,000 acres. Two
and one-fourth million yards of
concrete will be used.
For the inspection tour, the
guests were divided into two
groups one to cross the suspen-
sion bridge and go up to the
canyon on that side of the Big
Horn river. Trucks were used to
carry the delegation up to the
spot where actual construction
will take place.
After an extensive inspection
of the proposed dam site, the
group returned to the camp
site, where cold drinks of ice
tea and orange ade were served.
Those who were interested
were taken on a tour of Custer
Battlefield under the direction
of Capt. Luce.
