Farmers Get Much Hail Again
Last Tuesday the rain which came
was accompanied by some wind and
hail which- did much damage west
and northwest of Murdock and de
stroyed much small grain and pelt
ed Tip the corn to some extent, most
of which it is thought will come out
all right later. The wheat did not
fare so well, and much of it will
have to be plowed up and other
crops planted in the place.
This comes very severe on many
of the farmers as this portion of the
county was visited last summer by
the severe storm of July 10th. that
wiped out nearly everything in its
path and they are not prepared for
this repetition of their last year's
experience. In coming so early how
ever, it will allow the replanting of
hailed-out plots to corn and in this
manner at least a partial ctod mav
be realized from the land. However,
the time for planting corn is getting
late, and the season will have to be
favorable for the latter crop in order
that it may mature before the frost
catches it this fall.

Just the Kind of a Man
Wm. Holka, who is farming on the
Fred Backemeyer place northwest of
Murdock, had 'the misfortune to lose
a great -portion 'df his wheat by the
severe hail storm last week and with
the loss which he sustained last sum
mer when the hail swept over this
portion of the county, he is finding
the profits of the farming game very
light. However, he is-going ahead
with a determination, putting the
wheat land into corn, making him in
all some 190 acres of the latter crop,
and an amount that will require a
lot of rustling to keep plowed, but
Will is a born rustler himself and
we know he will leave no stone un
turned to turn failure into success
and realize an income from his ef
forts expendedin the tilling of the
large corn acreage this summer; His
is the determination that usually
wins, and somewhat we cannot help
but believe it will do so this year.

Shelby. Mont., June 8. Those
who are coming out here to see Jack

and Tom Gibbons throw
gloves at one another July 4, would
do well to make arrangements so
that their trip will include a visit to
the Blackfoot Indian reservation a
little west of Shelby. This reserva
tion, on which 3,000 Indians live in
j their own primitive style, takes care
of the remnants of the Blackfeet
tribe. The Blackfeet got their name
became discolored. They never were
hostile to the white men but carried
on warfare against the Crees and
Crows.
Mountain Chief, 86 year old ven
erable head, is the last of his line,
lie is still the Indian of fifty years
ago, refusing to change his habits,
although all about him the younger
generation are fast adopting the
habits and mode of living of their
white brothers.
In contrast to Mountain Chief are
the three Bird brothers, Sara, Levi
and Charlie. In their day they were
Ail-American stars on the Carlisle
football team. Now they are cattle
and sheep raisers and keen 'finan
ciers, ready at all times to match
their business wits agaftist those of
the white man. They are recognized
powers all through Montana, and are
rated among Montana's millionaires.
Their speech and manners are high
ly polished. They do not ape the
white man but they have absorbed
the best that he has with their na
tive character, and the result shows
what the Indian can do, despite the
pleas of the romancers who think
he should be left in his original state
and allowed to pass out of the na
tion's history in time.

CARRIERS' INCOME
DURING APRIL GOES
OVER 6 PER GENT
No Change in Bate Now, Interstate
Commerce Commission Chair-
man Announces.
Washington, June 6. Complete
reports to the interstate commerce
commission today showed that in Ap
ril the net railway operating Income
of class one roads was equivalent to
a return on an annual basis of 6 V-z
per cent. This is the first time since
the transportation act was passed
that the carriers earned a net in one
month In excess of 6 per cent. The
net for April was ? 83,197,000.
For the four months ended with
April the rate of return was 6.47 per
cent.
The improvement being made by
the railroads In earning power prob
ably w'll be seized upon in congress
as justifying reductions in rates, but
sue ha move will be resisted by the
railroads and shippers organiza
tions. No Bate Changes in View
The interstate commerce commis
sion is not contemplating any gener
al rate changes at this time. Even
if a rate investigation were ordered
and hearings held it would be
months before rate changes would be
made effective. C airman Meyer of
the interstate commerce commission
is the authority for the statement
that no general rate investigation is
now contemplated by the commis
sion. Complete reports showed that the
class 1 carriers In the eastern dis
trict had a net operating income in
April totaling $48,321,000, which
was at the annual rate of return of
7.33 per cent on their tentative val
uation. Net Income in South Large
The net operating income for the
carriers in the southern district, ac
cording to complete reports, totalled
112,281,700, which would be at the
annual rate of- return of 7.18 per
cent.
Complete reports for the carriers
In the western district, except tho
Daluth, Winnipeg and Pacific rall
rcad and the Wichita Falls and
Northwestern railroad company,
showed that the carriers in that dis
trict had a net operating income in
April of $22,595,000, which would
be at annual rate of return on their
tentative valuation of 4.52 per et nt.
Twenty-nine railroads In April
