Yankee Jim's Toll Road
By GAY RANDALL

ONE OF MONTANA'S most pictur-
esque characters was James George,
generally known as Yankee Jim,
frontier plainsman, trapper and trader.
Yankee Jim could have taken up a
SquatterS right to the choicest land in
the entire state if he had wished, but
he chose the strategic point on the up
per Yellowstone that bears his name to
build what was probably Montana's
first toll road shortly after the bill
was signed by President Ulysses S.
Grant, March l, 1872, setting aside the
area of Yellowstone Park as our first
National Park.
With keen eye to the future, Yankee
Jim well knew that all travellers would
have to use his toll road in travelling
to the upper Yellowstone and its won
ders, the rich fur bearing area and the
mining area of Bear Gulch and Cooke
City.
Pioneer Enterprise
Here at the south end of the canyon
where his toll road ended he built him
self two-story log road house, barn
and another small log building where
he dispensed diluted barrel whiskey in
tin cups for the weary traveller to wash
the dust from his throat. He had also
fenced in a few hundred acres of the
river bottom land for pasturing the
travellers horses.
Here Yankee Jim controlled the en-
trance to the upper Yellowstone, until
the Northern Pacific Railroad came to
build its branch line from Livingston to
Cinnibar. But Yankee Jim was there
to meet them with his old so caliber
buffalo gun. He was well established
in his stronghold They finally came to
terms and the Northern Pacific built
him another road, which he used for
many years after, collecting toll and

accommodating travellers in his ROAD
house.
1 was born and raised in the valley
near Yankee Jim'S and knew this OLD
character quite well. often stopped
in to chat with the old man.
Just for Practice
The railroad track ran within some
20 feet of his road house and during
those years the engineers would salute
Jim with wild shrek from the engine
whistle, which infuriated him. When
he would hear the train coming he
would stand in the kitchen door shaking
his fist at the passing train and crew,
flinging his favorite cuss words in a
reckless fashion from his large vo-
cabulary, his high pitched voice fairly
shrieking. He always said he did it
just to keep in practice.
Over the years, Yankee jim was host
to many famous men from many far off
places. They were awed at his fabu-
lous tales of killing thousands of In
dams and grizzly bear by the hundreds.
1t took only a word from a traveller to
get the old man to reminiscing.
Rudyard Kipling tells in his book,
American Notes." of his stay with
Yankee Jim in the late sos. Kipling said
of Yankee Jim, HE is a teller of tall
tales that even Annanias would have
envied." On one point however, Kip
ling agreed with Jim, that the trout
fishing in the Yellowstone could not be
equaled anywhere.
You Come to Me
Yankee Jim is probably the only man
in history that refused to go see a Unit
ed States President on invitation. He
did just this, though, when Teddy Roose-
welt sent word to him to come to Gar
diner, where he was going to lay the

Closet Yields
Dressing Room
BY BETTY LENAHAN

Clever use Of decorative wall
covering, unique built-ins and
attractive accessories can trans
form a walk-in closet into a
charming little dressing room
and at the same time provide
ample storage space for things
in daily use as well as for lug
gage, blankets and out-of-season
things.
The walk-in closet illustrated
was drab and unintereSting be-
fore it was changed into a verit-
able showplace-and with little
effort and expense. Clothing
was haphazardly arranged on
poles and hooks; shoes were
placed on q conventional floor
rack: unmatched boxes were
stacked on the shelf and-what
is most important-no efficient
use was made of available space.
Now the closet has become a
useful and attractive combina-
ton dressing wardrobe. A
luxurious quilted look has been
achieved by covering the walls,
lining the shelves and decorating
the boxes with a washable,
plastic-coated wall covering in
a soft shade Of blue. Uniform

boxes with pull handles-given

Question-Is it possible to ap-
ply wallpaper on a concrete
basement wall? If so. what sort
of sealer or coating should be ap-
plied on the concrete first?
Answer-The application Of
wallpaper directly on concrete is
not recommended, because of the
ever-present possibility of mois-
ture in the concrete or conden-
sation forming on the surface
during hot humid weather. To
obtain the effect you desire, fur
out the walls to create an air
space. then apply plasterboard
according to manufacturers di-
rections. A special sealer made
by the wallboard manufacturer
should be applied before wall
paper is put on.
Stains on Window Frames
Question: am living in a new
house and during the recent wet
months quite a few window
frames acquired black stains
which bled through the paint. I
intend to repaint them and
would like to know If there is
any way to prevent the discolor-
alton from recurring?
Answer-The first step is to
remove paint down to the
bare wood, then bleach out the
diScoloration with a hot satur-
ated solution of oxalic acid. This
is applied literally and allowed
to remain overnight. Thorough

Better Not Try to Apply
Wallpaper to Concrete

Irinsing with clear water should
follow. When the wood is thor
oughly dry, smooth it by rubbing
with 1000" sandpaper, then wipe
of the dust. As a precaution
against the formation of mold or
mildew, give the wood q soaking
coat of a chemical wood preserv-
Iative (not creosote). The wood
can then be painted or enameled
in the usual manner. To re-
duce the possibility of sweat
ing on the windows, install storm
sash and try to maintain a mini
mum of humidity inside the
house during the winter season.
