Dunbar, Oldest
Cowboy In County,
Holiday Visitor

Among interesting visitors in
Browning during the July Fourth
holidays was Samuel B. Dunbar,
who resides on place on Cut
Bank Creek, four miles from Cut
Bank.
A resident of this section for
so years, Dunbar is h a e and
hearty at the age of 88 years, and
was induced to be here for the
two-days celebration because of
being probably the oldest living
cowboy in the county.
He was born in Brooklyn, New
York, coming to Montana when
a young man. He first rode the
range for the Nelson Story Ok
~ o k outfit of Bozeman in the
early 8Os. drifting to the central
section of the state as the cattle
industry became more firmly es-
tablished in that area. He was
a very intimate friend of Charles
Russell, famed cowboy-artist of
Montana.
He has vivid memories of the
severe winter years ago W h e n
Russell pen-sketched the starving
range S e er, with the slogan,
The Last of the 5000"
In his lifetime he got to know
different men of prominence, in
Guiding Owen Wister, famed
novelist, who wrote THE Vir-
gilman. In f a t, he said, he
knew some of the outstanding
characters, of the book. Tram
pus was a cowboy named Nate
Young and the Virginian was
cowboy named Ed Harris, both
of w h m rode the Wyoming
range.

One Of Finest Hay Crops
Is Now Maturing

One of the most h eavy and

history of the Blackfeet Reseva-
ton is now in state of maturity.
with the ambition of ranchers and
stockmen to avail themselves as
much as possible with W h a t
they can harvest. Alfalfa
and other tame f e e d crops are
also looming in healthy stands.
As with other years, the help
problem prevails. With probably
one-third of the cattle that for
merly was fed from Reservation
grown feed now being raised and
fattened, the supply is at least
twice the needs of the industry
it is believed by Billy Kipp, field
man for the Tribal Council.
However, he said, that should
not discourage harvesting of the
maximum. Memories of feed
scarcity are all too vivid.

Annual Roundup
Keeps Faith
With Celebrants

With perfect summer weather
to enhance the occasion, the an
nual Blackfeet Roundup staged
July 3 and 4 was in keeping with
the hopes of the sponsors, the
Helgate Rodeo Company, various
groups cooperating and the hun
dreds of celebrants, who crowd
ed the grandstand and other
available sp a &c at the rodeo
grounds.
The S con d day, by far the
most successful, awaited many
from neighboring and from points
more distant in the state. an op-
porunity to attend, since gener-
ally, the holidays b an July
Fourth.
Rodeo stock was all that could
be desired, ropirg calves, riding
steers and bucking horses having
a conspicuous ledge on their
opposing contestants. In fact,
bronc riders for t h most part
had to concede VII tory to the
horses.
A feature both days was Miss
Ruby Montandon of Kellogg,
| d h o, who teamed with her
clever pony in arena acts.
There were three horse races
daily, with most race fans being
satisfied with the events.
The July 3rd and 9TH parades,
sponsored by the Browning Sad
die Club, were carried out accord
ing to plans, although the second
days was superior.
They were full of spectacularity
and color. Ninety-four horses
took part, including those of the
Browning Saddle Club. Others
were the Blackfeet Indian par
ticipations. Floats included the
Yegen Hotels and Beck's Sport
ing Goods. Heading the parades
was the Colors and the 19-piece
Indian band.

were awarded by local merchants.
The list of prizes, donors and
