Museum Archives Contains
important Historical Records

correspondence with the Com
missioner of Indian Affairs has
only been preserved locally and
is unavailable at National Ar
chives. Certain monthly reports,
with detailed accounts Of events
and progress, are represented
nowhere else but a m ong the
Agents papers at the Museum.
The same is true for incoming
correspondence TO the Agent.
The Museum Archives also con-
tain much miscellaneous cores
pOndence - letters to and from
the Agent and such Montana wor-
thies as T. c. Power, Governor
B. F. Potts, I. G. Baker, J. j.
Healy, r. S. Ford and c. A.
Broadwater and from such ma
tional figures as the naturalist
George Bird Grinnel, Captain r.
II. Pratt, of Carlisle Indian school
and Generals Phil Sheridan and
Terry.
In addition to archival acquisi-
tons, the Museum has recently
acquired several collections of in
teresting old photographs Of the
Montana scene. The Museum has
also recently obtained a number
of the original manuscripts of
Walter McClintock, who began
his observations of the Backfeet
Indians before the turn of the
century. His material was donat-
ed by his sister and his niece.
The Museum" concludes DR..
Schaeffer, ''is well on its way to
fulfilling one of its original OBJ
jectives - that of becoming a
research center for responsible
students of Northwestern Plains
anthropOlogy and ethno-history.
II is difficult to see how any SER
iOus attempt to work or write in
these fields in the future can be
carried on without consulting
Museum resources"

.ASC Practices May
Be Used As Part
OF Diversion Plan

Protection of titled land from
erosion is given added emphasis
this year in the Glacier county
Agricultural Conservation pro,
gram by the addition of a new
practice providing cost-sharing
for the establishment of a cover
crop.
Chairman Kyle Momberg OF
the County Agricultural and Con-
servation committee said that the
practice was designed particu-
larry for the use of producers
planning to divert acreage under
the 1862 wheat sterilization and
feed grain programs. These pro-
ducers are required to increase
their acreage of conserving uses,
including summer fallow, by an
amount equal to the acreage di-
verted from wheat, barley and
corn production.
Specifications for the practice
provide that a good stand and
good growth must be obtained
and left on the land or turned
under. Pasturing consistent with
good management may be per-
mitted, but none of the growth
may be harvested for hay or
seed. Volunteer stands will not
qualify for cost-sharing.
Approved crops and recon-
mended seeding rates for the
practice are: Spring wheat, 80
pounds; Barley, 80 pounds, and
Oats, 80 pounds.
The spring grains may be seed
ed beginning in early April to
assure early protective cover.
Where available, seed with a
deep furrow, semi-deep furrow,
shovel or hoe type drill. Ridging
of soil perpendicular to the di-
rection of prevailing winds will
in itself provide protection from
erosion. Drills equipped with
press wheels assure better stands
where surface moisture may be
limited.
Summer cover crops should be
used only where necessary to
control erosion. In most dryland
with less than Is inches of mois-
ture there is no direct benefit
to subsequent crops when the
cereals are plowed down as green
manure. Cover crops utilize mois-
ture which otherwise may be
stored under normal fallow oper-
atoms.
Growth of cover crops which
could mature for grain or silage
must be clipped not later than
July 81, 1862 and left on the
ground. Pasturing consiste 1T
with good management may be
continued after this date.
A cost-share payment of s1.40
per acre of cover established
will be made under the practice.
Farmers are reminded that re-
quest for cost-sharing for this
and any other ACP practice must
be made prior to the time the
practice Is begun.

New insights Of value and in
terest into the history Of Mon
tana and the Blackfeet Indians
are being revealed through the
processing of the Blackfeet Agen
cy records at the Museum OF the
Plains Indian, Browning. The rec
ords. for which the Museum
serves as repository. extend, ac
cording to DR.. Claude Z. Schaef
fer, Curator, from 1873, when
the Agency was located at Che
teau. to 1910.
Mrs. Helen B. West, Archives
Assistant, has been catalOging
the Agency correspondence
which throws new light upon
some of the most important
events in western history. Fol
example, there is a report from
the Blackfeet Agent in early 1876
OF an attempt by the Sioux In
dams - unsuccessful though IL
vas - TO enlist the Montana
Blackfeet in their uprising
against white settlers; a letter
from the then Governor Of Mon
tana commenting upon the Gus
ter battle Immediately after the
tragedy; and an exchange of let
tiers concerning those responsible
for the Cypress Hills Massacre OF
1873.
The Museum Archives also CON
tain correspondence from early
trading posts: records Of freight
ers' difficulties Transporting sup
plies over the long roads from
Helena and Fl Benton; letters
from ST Peters Mission; com
municatiOns between the Agent
and the military at Fl Shaw, and
the North West Mounted Police
st Forts Macleod and Walsh;
and a day-by-day chronicle of the
tragic winter of 18S3-84, when the
determination of the buffalo led
90 the death by starvation of one
quarter of the Montana Black
feet.
Mrs. West has recently return
ed from a visit to the National
Archives in Washington, DC.
where she carried on research in
the records of the Bureau Of In
dian Affairs in an effort TO locate
correspondence missing from Mu-
scum files. PhOtOcOpies OF these
lost or illegible letters will be
made, and micrOfilm of Agency
correspondence prior 20 1874 add
ed as well, in an attempt to eX-
pand Museum cOyerage. More
material will be acquired as the
limited funds of the Museum per-
NIT.
The value Of the Museum col
lection is enhanced by the fact
that il is the only complete rec
ord of the difficult period mark

the Blackfeet Of the old, nOmad-
ic hunting life for a new exist

The varied attractions Of a Vir-

as "easily the most popular dou-

American tourists today" in a six
page travel article featured in the
October issue Of Argosy magazine.
With its circulation of 100000
copies reaching a travel-minded
audience Of 5,5OO,OOO readers, the

Leading off the Argosy travel

The article says, in part, 'The

Big Brothers
Seeking More
Volunteers

"The rewards Of being a Big
Brother are limitless," says
George c. Findley, jr.
The Big Brothers, a group OF
Catholic, Jewish and Protest
ant men interested in helping
boys over the rough spots in
life are seeking additional vol
unteers for their One Man :
One Boy program during Ma
tional Big Brother Week, Jan.
6th-13th.
A visiting teacher in the Spe-
cial Class Department for the
Cleveland Board Of Education,
Fndley and his "little broth
er" have shared such experien-
ees as movies, shopping and
spectator sports. Occasionally
the boy comes over to spend the
evening with his Big Brother
and Mrs. Findley.
'Little brothers" are boys
from 8 to 18 who do not have
a father at home to provide
the companionship and guild
arce that q young boy so des-
perately needs. Big Brothers
have in common, an interest in
kids and the sincere desire to
understand and to befriend q
boy.
The Big Brother has no legal
or financial responsibility for
the "little brother" or the boys
family and the volunteer is
guided in this relationship by al
professional social worker who
knows both boy and man.
Affiliated with the United
Appeal, Big Brother Associa-

Red Cross. Has
Openings for
R.N. Nurses

The Greater Cleveland Red
Cross Chapter has openings for
nurses interested in volunteer
ing for the blood program.
Volunteers now have q, choice
Of assignments between the
Downtown Blood Center and
Bloodmobile units travelling to
outlying suburban areas" said
Mrs. Roy Swisher, R. N, Of 40
East 267th st., Euclid.
"For example If a nurse lives
In Euclid, she can help when the
Bloodmobile visits there; of
course if she wants to take an
assignment in another part of
Cleveland, we won't say mo-;
but primarily we want local
volunteers to accept local
volunteer responsibilities"
She said this reflects the true
meaning Of Red Cross; friend
helping friend, neighbor help
ing neighbor.
During January the Red
Cross will interview nurses who
can help in the blood program.
Applicants should have q facili-
ty for interviewing, since they
will be responsible for the en-
tire medical history of a donor,
which includes blood pressure,
hemoglobin and pluse check.
According to Mrs. Swisher
the Red Cross collects an aver
age Of 10000 pints Of whole
blood q year. This quantity will
Increase as hospitals find more
uses for whole blood through
improved research and surgery
techniques. Each year the Red
Cross becomes more and more
dependent on volunteers for
carrying out key programs, es-
pecially the volunteer regis
tered nurses who relieve full

sibilities except actually COL
