Held
To ScoreIess Tie
BY Laurel Eleven

Sherwood High had its un-
beaten record tainted somewhat
when it was held to a scoreless
tie by Laurel yesterday at Laurel.
The tie stopped Sherwood's
streak of six straight victories
this season. Laurel's record is
3-4-1.
Lynn Thurman for Sherwood
and Dave John and Dick Cole
for Laurel were the biggest
ground gamers. but neither team
made much of an advance until
the final period.
Sherwood got to Laurel's. 20,
but lost the ball on downs and
Laurel advanced to the IS, but
lost the ball on a tumble.

Round Butte Solves
It's Water Problem
BY RAY ONION, Roping Reporter

ing. Water for drinking and cooking
still has to be hauled from town.
bitches and POthoIes
Those who are fortunate enough to
have an irrigation. ditch running through
their pasture have fairly good stock
water during the summer. Potholes,
however, are the only sources of water
for livestock during the winter for all
producers, and for most farmers it is
their only year around supply. Reser-
voirs, to use the term loosely, have
been bulldozed out and filled with irri-
cation water. Cattle stand along the
edge to drink, and the spring runoff
washes their eXcrement into the ponds.
They have become stagnant and in
tested, an ideal breeding ground for
snails, the intermediary host of the
liver fluke. DR.. R. D. Read, Roman vet
erinarian, says that in the seven years
he inspected meat in the area, 95 per
cent of the ivers were condemned be-
cause of liver flukes. He's even found
NAoCooCN 1lNSlS III Tic Cal CdSSGS VI SUCK
ling calves. All cattle are vaccinated
for Red Water, but still there are
many losses to this disease each year.
Income from livestock enterprises is
greatly reduced because of the water
situation. An animal infested with liver
flukes will be in poor health and won't
get normal benefit from its feed. Dairy
cows, requiring large quantities of
water, could never be expected to pro-
duce their maximum. few sips from
the stagnant pot holes is all they can
stand.
Drowned Cattle
Every winter several head of cattle
in Round Butte break through the ice
on these potholes and drown A. J..
Pfaff lost two steers and two cows one
winter. Hubert Renkey found seven
dead cows in a pothole one morning.
Practically none of the dairymen in
the area are able to produce grade A
milk. They don't have the water neces-
sary to cool the milk or to maintain
the sanitary conditions necessary for
grade A production. The Roman cheese
plant reports that during the summer

HALFWAY up the side of Round
Butte, the landmark that gives its name
to Lake county farming community,
stands a lbs, O00-g gallon reinforced con-
crete water tank Mains laid along the
road carry clear artesian well water
to the more than 100 farm families in
the area.
And to these farm families this new
water supply (the project was just
completed this winter means every
thing. For years water, or the lack of
it, has been their greatest problem.
This area in the lower Flathead Val
ley contains most of the essentials of
a good farming communicated soil,
level land, plenty of irrigation water,
a good oiled road to town and nearby
markets. But ever since the valley was
first settled, around the turn of the
century, farmers have been plagued
with a shortage of water for household
and livestock needs. Without adequate
water the full potentialities of the area
could never be realized.
Hauled in Milk Cans
A few families use a storage tank
mounted on a truck to haul drinking
water, but most of the people use ruSted
milk cans that have been condemned
for dairy use. They have been making
the 10 to 15-mile drive to Roman for
water for so many years that it is
regarded as just another chore.
Almost every farmstead in Round
Butte has dry hole where drilling a
well was attempted. Many farmers
have $4,000 and $4,000 invested in a
hole in the ground. Pete Walchuck spent
$1,000 for well. He got water, all
right, but there was just about enough
to do the family washing. 1t wasn't
drinkable.
The Round Butte school has drilled
three wells. Two were dry holes, and
the third produced a small quantity Of
warm, sulphurous water.
Many farms have cisterns where If.
rigation water and water from stock
ponds is filtered. This water, however
can only be used for laundry and wash

Montana farmer-stockman., 1956-06-15

to 10 cans of milk are thrown out
each day because it's gone sour. Fresh,
cold water to cool the milk will elimi-
nate this loss.
DIR. Read says the liver fluke problem
will not clear up over night with the
completion of the water system. How
ever, he believes farmers will then be
able to take effective steps to eliminate
one of the main sources of the trouble
the potholes. By draining and filling the
holes with fresh dirt, the snails will
lose their primary breeding grounds.
There will still be the problem of
irrigation drainage and natural potholes
in meadows that can harbor enough
snails to perpetuate the life cycle of the
liver fluke. Fencing these areas will
go a long way toward eventual elimi-
nation of the problem.
DIR. Read has farm near Roman and
uses city water. He says his cattle will
walk a considerable distance from the
pasture to the barn lot for water, rather
than drink out of ponds. So he feels
confident that as soon as Round Butte
farmers get stock tanks and the cattle
get taste of good water they'll quickly
train themselves to stay away from in
tested areas.
ArteSian Well
Water for the new system will come
from an artesian well. Several years
ago Walter Peshel was drilling on his
place with the pesSimistic hope of find
ing water. At $50 feet, at about $3.50 a
foot, they were just about to give up.
The drilling rig could go down just an
other 10 feet, so it was decided to make
one final try.
At 357 feet the artesian well came in

a city the size of Missoula The Round
Butte system will use 1/30 of its ca
pacity The water has a constant tenn
perature of 54 degrees and contain:
about l part per million of flourine
There's no better water-anywhere.
Actually, construction of the storag,
tank and laying the more than 40 mile
of water mains represents a small, in
significant part of the work that wa
necessary to provide Round Butte witt
a water system. The actual construc
ton is the elimination of a hope tina
has been in the minds of people 70
years. In the early 194Os that hop
faded when an investigation of the pos
sibilities of water system reveale
the almost insurmountable problem
involved. The hope was revived
March, 1852, when the Round Butt
Montana farmer-stockman., 1956-06-15

Grange appointed committee to make
a study of the situation again.
FILA Assistance
The group met with R. M. Sherick,
Lake county Farmers Home Admins
traitor, representatives of the FILA in
Washington, DC, and water facilities
specialists from Bozeman. Their inveS-
tigation showed that $3.50, 900 would be
needed to provide Round Butte with
an adequate water system. The maxi
mum allowed on FILA loans was $780,
600. No other sources of credit were
available.
But the committee was determined
to put an end to the water cans, pot
holes and smelly cisterns once and for
ALL Montana's Congressman and Sem
ators began receiving a deluge of let
tiers from members of the Round Butte
Grange. In April, 1854, the 83rd Con-
gresS passed a bill raising the FILA
loan limit to $3.50, 00O The money was
Immediately made available to the
Round Butte community.
Then the work really began. One
hundred subscribers had to be signed
up. Each prospective water user was
required to pay $3.50 as insurance on
the loan. Oddly enough. getting the 100
signerS required an intensive selling
job. Some people thought it would be
necessary to mortgage their farms.
Some, who had spent thousands on dry
holes, we're UNDERSTANDABLE reluctant to
invest any more money on a water
system. Still others had hauled water
for so many years that they were con-
tent to continue on as before. The
nostrils of some had become numb to
the odor of the stagnant potholes.
Hard Work Did 1t
Jake Pfaff, Roy Atkinson, Antoine
Anderson, Ralph Maxwell, Ed Broholm,
Clarence BickS, Leo Kaiser, H. G. Orr,
Joe Orchard, Paul Peshel, Harry
Maughn, Rudy Sherick and other Round
Butte citizens covered an estimated
4,4OO miles and donated combined
total of more than 2,4OO hours soliciting
subscribers. Contracts couldn't be let
until the sign-up was completed, and il
had to be done before certain date
or the loan would be cancelled.
Water users will pay a minimum Of
$3.50 per month, $105O to be applied
to the loan and 81 for the first 10000
gallons of water. The second 10000
gallons will cost Is cents per thousand
and 10 cents per thousand on the thirC
10000. When the loan is retired in 81
years the charges will be just for the
cost of the water.
