Your first impulse is t make a hurried comparison v.ith previous volumes. Your criticism is favorable or unfavorable. Upon the editor falls either praise or censure. But remember that the Annual should represent not the editor, not the board of editors, not the junior class, but. on the other hand, the function of a publication of this nature should be to interest the entire student body, the faculty, and every one connected with the college, and when placed in strange hands should convey an accurate idea of the institution at large. Every one belonging to the institution i lcsponsiblc in some degree for the merits or the demerits of this book. Before criticizing it too severely, 'top to recollect whether or not you have done what was in your ] owcr to aid in its perfection. This spirit of cooperation has asserted itself very generally this year, and in compiling this volume the editor has met with no small amount of real pleasure and enjoyment, and lie feels grateful to the Montanan staff for their hearty support. 10 « r 11 n tt We arc deeply indebted to Miss Juliette W van for the artistic drawings and helpful suggestions contributed to this hook. Thanks arc also due to tflr. X'oah Kirby and Mr. Car! Gottschalk for their kind assistance in producing cartoons and drawings. Mrs. Mablc K. Hall is to be thanked for her masterful poems. We v isit to thank Mr. Albert Schlechten for the interest and care which he lias taken in procuring photographs. The Tribune Printing Co. and the Stafford Engraving Co. are also to be thanked for their prompt attention and kind assistance. To our advertisers, who have made the publication a possibility, we extend our heartiest thanks, and recommend them ior your patronage. The Annual, although still young, has become firmly rooted snd is beyond doubt a permanent establishment. The task remains for it to be built up and improved till it can keep pace with every other establishment in our institution. The past year has made decided improvements in nearly aii lines. Higher standards have been raised on every side. The W ccklv and Monthly Exponents have made new strides anc have set a pace far ahead of any before realized. This is the proper spirit lor such institutions to take and the annual management lias attempted to widen the path made by the pioneers in this work, as far as possible, and in a slight degree, at least, to make steps toward the upbuilding of an Annual which will be a credit to our college. This work is necessarily slow and requires the mutual help of the students and faculty. It is the sincere desire oi the editor of this book to see the Annual improved each year until no institution can l oast of a better one. A idea is therefore made to students and faculty to do all in their power to assist in the perfection of future publications. The greatest factor in accomplishing this end is to comply with requirements made of you by the editor. Remember that he has many cares and responsibilities in making up a volume of this kind. If asked for a photo of certain specifications, do not wait to be notified five or six times, but try to meet the wishes of the editor promptly, and spare him the necessity of spending several hours to secure one of the many pictures which must he had to make the publication possible. Don't think that he is starting too early, and that there is plenty of time several months hence ior you to do your part, because where the work must necessarily fall upon a very few persons, too early a start is impossible, and unforeseen delays are bound to creep in. We wish to thank the student body for the efforts they have made to help ir this publication, and for the hearty support they have given. The 1911 Annual is completed. Our small work is finished. Xext year the responsibility will fall upon other heads, and if this book proves in any way to be a stepping stone on the pleasant path 01 perfecting the Junior Annual, our time and labor is repaid a thousand fold. ; 9twtt or n. •.

It seems to have always been the custom in all such reviews to speak of the particular year a the most successful one in the history of the institution. Perhaps this is sometimes due to the fact that the writer was an optimist, but nevertheless it has been the ease. So it is with this year. Like others perhaps that will succeed it 1909-10 has really been in many particulars the most brilliant period in the history of M. A. C., and so it is with the greatest of pleasure that a brief outline of it is here set down, not simply because the present students have profited by it. but because they earnestly hope and feel they have a right to believe that as time a t r n r f a Roes on future students will still be reaping the harvest from the seeds of prosperity that have been sown this year. While the rceord in football was not noted for its victories it is left in the students' memories as a season not to be regarded as a failure. Although the team failed to win we feel proud, and justly so. of the effort it put forth and the spirit of determination it showed from the beginning of the season to the end. Handicapped by lack of experience and promising material there was little hope for a winning team, nevertheless there is satisfaction in knowing the games were desperately fought, and that the boys did their best. With basketball it has been the same old story—intercollegiate champions of the state of Montana. The season’s end left M. A. C. with this honroed title for the fifth successive year. Although defeated by Billings and the University of Utah the boys made a splendid showing in these games and when they met Utah they went down to deieat to the best basketball team that ever played in Bozeman. The season also proved a splendid success from a financial point of view. As for spring athletics conditions were never more favorable than they have been this year. With better weather than usual ior out-door training and a special coach to help with the baseball squad the college is assured of a winning team. The track work, under the direction of Coach McIntosh, promises championship results. About thirty-five candidates reported in March. A triangular track and field meet—the first of its kind ever held in the state—was held May 11 in Missoni.. and the University and School of Mines being the two other contesting teams. The M. A. C. regimental band and a bunch of rooters went along to cheer the boys on to victory. In general then it may be said that athletics for iyo()-io have been very successful and much good will certainly come from the effort put forth. And in connection with athletics the Boosters and Boostcrines have contributed largely toward maintaining interest and success has been due. at least in part, to the effective work of these organizations. Along other lines also progres has been rapid during the past year and through the efficiency and determination of the Exponent staff the X-Club was organized and as a result of its members' willingness and ability the institution may now boast of one of the best college weeklies in the northwest. It i . a credit, not only to the staff, but to the institution as well. The paper has already contributed to the broadening of student life and it will continue to grow. The lack of interest shown in the literary societies has probably been due to development along other lines and the organization of other societies, but the Arena, now composed of both girls and boys, is making more progress than it has for the past few years. For the first time in the history oi the institution an intercollegiate debate was held with a college outside the state in addition to the annual debate with W esleyan University. There was the largest number of speakers in the Oratorical contest that ever took part, and so in a literary and oratorical way this year has been especially noted for the interest taken in those activities. Besides these things the girls' dormitory is no longer a dream, but a reality, and in its appearance and equipment it will not be surpassed by any in the state. Work will be started on this new structure as soon as the weather will permit in order that it may be ready for occupancy by the opening of college next fall. The work on the ne.v college athletic field has also been started. The cinder track is now in good shape and the remainder of the field will probably be finished within a year. By this brief review it may be seen that the year just closing has given birth to new ideas and these ideas have been carried through successfully. And no;v the college has passed through its infancy. Many difficulties have marked the path of those who have gone before, but the overcoming of these difficulties has made us stronger year bv year until now it has been our good fortune to see the first rays of light that have come to mark a new era in the development of the institution. Necessarily the beginning has been slow, but now that mature growth has come, more rapid strides in its further progress may be expected. 4 ittnntana $tatr ftnarft uf tiUiratiim Ux-(0fiirin Governor -Edwin L.

C. has a son or daughter that seems W I j to be too feeble to cope with this cold world at VI graduation time she sometimes persuades the weak one, or more, as may be, to stay another year and sit at the feet of her servants, absorbing, additionally, enough of the knowledge emanating from them to put the said weak children on a coping basis. That this procedure has sometimes saved valuable material to the world of learning there can be no doubt. Their Alina Mater consoles them with a master’s degree and all is well. They think they have done something and the college contemplates the success of the scheme with satisfaction. Many of these children never do get away from the halls of learning, but remain there the rest of their lives, teaching the young idea how to shoot, etc., in fact this is one of the ideas of the work. To be a successful teacher one must be on speaking terms with the fundamentals of his profession, and there is nothing that so thoroughly grounds one in these fundamentals as a year or two of research work. For instance, what could put a scholar on a more intimate footing with the science of bacteriology than rounding up a few germs, studying their habits, branding them with the college monogram, and then turning them loose on some poor defenseless guinea pig to wreak their malevolent will unhindered? Or the physicist may ruthlessly tear the electron from 2 tair QJourap the parent atom, stand him up against the wall, and question him till the last iota of knowledge concerning his private affairs is laid bare. The mathematician, too. may waste reams of paper and months of time proving that a doubly infinite number of real lines, which consist of nothing more tangible than the shortest distance between two points, may intersect in a doubly infinite number of successive imaginary points. The plant pathologist may pluck a handful of soil from Mother Earth, insert a few seeds to germinate and grow, and then deprive the young plants of the privilege of partaking of sufficient quantities of aqua, in order that he may enlarge his knowledge of the plant kingdom by estimating the number of hours, minutes, and seconds, that his plants will survive under such moderate conditions. There are others but they will not be enumerated here. To the lay mind this seems as so much useless intellectual “foolishness, but its connection with teaching embryo farmers the why and wherefore of making butter, the engineer the uses and effects of natural forces, and so on. is too plain and intimate to be readily perceived. Xo personal remarks conceiting the present incumbents of this department will be indulged in, but on the other hand, the public is left to draw its own conclusions as to their intellectuality and good charactei from the cabinet size illustrations adorning the page of this volume. 28 FRED EARNEST Y ALCHI.I.

As Freshmen we arc gay, happy children, frolicking thoughtlessly, sometimes foolishly, and repenting with the brief remorse of youth. We play empty-headed jokes on our elder brothers and sisters and look irreverently upon our faculty. As men and women look back upon childhood days and recount their doings so we of the class of 1910 look back even now as Seniors and love to tell of our bloody class scraps, of our heated debates, of our numerous athletic contests, of our parties and dances and strawrides and picnics, and alas, we fear they number more frivolities than serious effort. The Sophomore and Junior years form a less eventful period. One sinks into a temporary oblivion but our class of ’io compelled recognition by our basket ball team, which during three years of its existence has held the title of Inter-class Champions. We have won every debate in which we have participated, and made valuable contributions to football, baseball and track teams. In our Junior year, we left a monument to our success in the Junior Montanan and during our Editorship of the Exponent, the new Weekly was inaugurated. In all we feel that we leave behind us a record of which we may feel proud. It is one of the greatest and most inevitable tragedies in life that boys and girls must leave their parents and homes in which they spent a happy childhood and care free youth, and go into the world to face life for themselves. Perhaps the most tragic part lies in the fact that they, themselves see nothing sorrowful in it. They go away full of light heartedness, iS and hope, and it is only when they have lost youth's inspiration and credulity and have been buffeted in the great fight for success that their thoughts turn regretfully back to that tender shelter of their early years. As the days of spring become warmer and the air softer we cherish each golden hour left us eagerly and review the thousand and one associations connected with the dear old school on the hill and realize that we. the class oi 'to must leave our college home soon. We are participators in that world old tragedy and we too. are selfish in our hopes and in our ambitions. But as a wise far seeing mother knows that the influence she has exerted upon her children will out live life itself, and try as they may they can never forget her so our Alma Mater rests secure in the certainty that the children she has so carefully reared will never lose the happy memories of college days nor forget the duty that they owe to her. 36 1C r a ft r r s u f ill r n Jn Iln' £lar.n tif 19111 [Ki W your$elv«« elect, O 191a Men and women chosen from the lot To guard the liner sense and the nobler thought; Trained to lead with hand and voice and pen.

At one time he had bright hopes of mastering the mysteries of the Engineering World, but the Fates were not so inclined. He received the appointment to Annapolis, and in December was called away to sail the seas and enjoy the free life on the ocean waves. Although he is gone pleasant memories remain. He was a member of the Arena, C.E. Society. and assistant motorman on the Bozeman Street Railway Co. He enjoyed a cigar in the coal house, but always took precautions that no one found it out. He had great love and admiration for the fair sex. but like his smoking habit, he kept it a secret. His classmates wish him the greatest of success in his new career. RAYMOND E. BANCROFT. Bozeman. M.

The ranks of that class have been thinned from that day to this, and June 1, 19 '• ill place glory and honor on only a fraction of the original number. At the beginning ol the Sophomore year the number was reduced to forty-one. What has become of the rest? Several failed to survive the mid-year exams., and were convinced that they could do better elsewhere. William Bessette, with one of the finest futures before him. was suddenly called to a greater world, before the spring semester closed. His memory will long be cherished by his classmates. Willard Brown is now a lumber-jack at the thriving city of Three Forks. Ethelbert Coombs is on his home farm near Laurel. The other agriculturalists arc Bert Hapner. who is running a successful truck farm in StringtownSam Kitlains is holding down a claim near Straw; P. J. Moore is running a ranch ior the Penwell Land Co.: and Irwin A. Draper and John 11. Williams are on their home ranches at Red Lodge and Klkhorn respectively.

Mamie Kountz is assistant instructor in art at M. A. C. Florence Baker. Alice Chisholm. Elizabeth Ferris and Ruth Yrceland arc all at home in Bozeman. Tillie Lehrkind visited in Germany last year and is now in New York City. 54 Most important, perhaps, of the fates of our freshmen classmates arc those of Zoc Duncan and Shirley Van Voast. The former is now Mrs. Frank Bird, and lives on a farm. Shorley is engaged in real estate business in the day time, and walks the floor with the baby at night. New members in the sophomore year, were Marvin Spain, who changed his course, and dropped back from the Class of ‘to: Harry Peek, who came from the Montana College at Deer Lodge, and Grace Clark, who has been out of school for two years instructing the rural youth. When roll was called last September it was found that the list was smaller still. Thirty appeared, and since then several of those have, for various reasons, left school. Ruth Cook decided to attend Phelps Commercial School. Faye Widener remained at home. Florence Baker is taking special work, and Glenn King is at home in Fort Benton. A short time after school began. Helen Brencman secured a position as teacher near Belgrade, and left school to take up that work. Gertrude Cameron severed her connection with the college to attend the Normal School at Dillon. Lee Anderson secured an appointment and passed the entrance examination for Annapolis, where he is now attending the Naval Academy. Court Sheriff also left, and is now at his home in Canyon Ferry. In the latter part of March, the failure of his eyes necessitated Ernest Morris to discontinue his studies. Guy Wilcox was also obliged to stop on account of ill health. In scholarships, athletics and oratorical contests, the class has met with its share of victories and defeats. While a freshman. Will Haines won the slide rule contest, this being the first time that a freshman ever carried off the prize. Members in the class assisting on the faculty are Blanche Metliency. Ernest Morris and Lucile Higgins. Marvin Spain has been foremost in debating ranks ever since high school days, and was one of the two to represent the college in the debate with the Agricultural College of Utah this spring. We are well represented in athletics. Court Sheriff being captain of the '10 football team, Everett Hamilton, of the baseball team, and Greichcn Fiske of the girls' basketball team. Some of the foremost workers in V. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. are members of the class. Raymond Bancroft was president of the former last year, and Grace Clark is now president of the Y. W. C. A. She also represented the college at the convention of the Student Volunteer movement in Rochester, during the Christmas a cal ion. Grace Kirk was one of the delegates to the Northwest Y. M. C. A. conference last summer. The third year is now completed. an:l the members who still remain with the class have grown to know each Other and to have become attached to one another by the true spirit which works for a common cause in life's great battle. It is hoped that all the present members will return this fall to spend one more year in our college halls, after which the deeds of the class of 1911 will be accomplished by its members individually, on the great field of opportunity and advancement.

During the two years of its cxist-cnee it has, however, attempted to fill the part designed for it and has always been conscientious in the support of the right as it saw the right. In September, 1908, there gathered at the Montana Agricultural College about sixty young men and women of the state of Montana, all intent on securing some additional knowledge and training, and all entering what was then the freshman class. The first act which was performed in recognition of the new class was the hoisting oi a ilag bearing the numerals 1911 to the topmost point oi the steeple on College Hall. Four young and active men of the new class took upon themselves the trouble of bringing down this challenge, and after some difficult and dangerous work they were successful. After lodging in safe hands ior a day the flag was produced at a point on the campus in plain view oi the classes of eleven and twelve, who were gathered and who then proceeded to do battle for it possession. Xobody succeeded. The flag was finally reduced to nothing by the successive removal of shreds oi it and those who were clamoring for a chance to pull a little saw it slowly vanish irom sight and go into the pockets of the contestants. And so it went throughout the year. The new class did not annex to itself all the championships oi the student body. They won in some things, they lost in others: but when they did lose they proved themselves good losers. They did not quibble over vain, nonsensical points, but when they were beaten, they yielded as gracefully as the conditions would permit. In all forms of student activities the members of this class were always ready to lend their aid and seldom was there sa a public event which did not receive all the support from them that they were capable of giving. They gave the annual class play and if it was not up to professional standards, they at least can claim the distinction of having attempted the hardest dramatic production ever given at this college. The beginnning of the sophomore year saw nearly the same students as had been here in the freshman year. There were some faces missing, and some new faces, but, on the whole, the change in personnel was not very great. But in the action of the members there was a change: the boisterous, self-confident air had given way to one that was more modest and had more real self-reliance than had been before manifested. They were still ready to support every legitimate form of activity carried on under the name of the college, and they did support them. They saw the folly of unending strife between the classes and therefore did little to encourage these contentions. 'Tis true they hung a freshman in defiance of the lower class, but they immediately burned him in order to prevent further trouble. When, later, this newer class hoisted their colors to the top of a high telephone pole, the calm and sedate sophomores caused little trouble. They gathered out on the campus and proceeded to investigate the cause of the excitement. After fighting vainly for two long hours to gain possession of this trophy they decided that it was not essential to their welfare and betook themselves to neglected classrooms. These little brats composing the freshman class then collected at a down town hall to give a party. The sophomores, in a true scientific spirit of toleration and investigation, and solely in the interests of science, were found in large numbers in the vicinity of the hall. Those who made the intimate acquaintance of the youngsters were invited to attend their orgies and again in the interests of science, they accepted the invitation. The results of the investigations thus carried on at first hand have not all been made public and the writer is too busy to mention them now. They will probably appear later in a treatise on Strength of Materials. As time went on the sophomores became possessed of a well defined but somewhat vain fear that somebody was going to tax their incomes. The fear did not lead to panic but rather to a statement of reasons for not so taxing them and their well earned cash. But the Judges did not hear these reasons and decided that the step was perfectly appropriate. In figuring out their liabilities and living expenses, however, the discovery was made that there were plenty of ways to make their incomes appear negative and that therefore the tax would revert upon the tax collector. This discovery saved the sophomores lots of sleep and prevented their migration to Utopia. Now that nearly half of the college life of the subjects of this article has been completed, the question of what destiny has in store for them is becoming insistent. They arc beginning to feel the great responsibility of life and are coming to the conclusion that college life is really a training for their later activities. And thus reads the history of the first two years of the class of 1912 S9 KRESHnAN A 60 3 x i a Ij in t n President ..................................Brook Hartman Vice President..............................Everett Brown Secretary-Treasurer.........................Frank McGuire Sergeant-at-Arms ...........................Elmer Slccman MP1XG in eagerly to fill the empty bucket left by the class of 1909011 the endless belt of educational advancement the class of ‘13 came to M. A. C. some seventy-five strong. They were all green, most of them awkward enough to be walking publishers of their greenness as they stumbled and blushed through the nerve racking ordeal of registration. Misery likes company and in times of impending disaster unity adds strength, so a class organization was effected. The efficiency of the officers need not be idly praised for their names speak their fitness. More important in the telling was the choice of an emblem. Perhaps with a view to the richness of the combination or possibly because the brightness of it might gradually outshine the natural green, orange and black were chosen. The joy to anyltody of being in its victories and in its disappointments when reverses conic, must surely be a plausible and innocent thing, so the class of 13 attributes its success to its numbers, good fortune and the true zeal which has inspired every effort, at the same time honestly acknowledging the fairness and ability of its friendly rivals. At the outset the class was burned in effigy, but say! That burning oil was entirely too hot to handle by the time the victims reached the scene. X’ot much later, however, a grand thing happened. The entire force gathered one day and proceeded to wave the adopted banner front a telegraph pole on the east side of the campus. The Sophs soon approached on valor bent and a mix-up ensued. It was a grand exhibition of gritty struggle and after one hour or more the orange and black of ’13 could still be plainly seen in its place of distinction. Further struggle on this basis was useless so the upper classmen requested, on behalf of fairness. ’13 should lower the banner and allow '12 to struggle for its possession on the turf. One of the Freshmen quickly scaled the pole and his return to earth with the coveted trophy was the signal for the renewal of the combat. Shirts and other garments were sacrificed by both classes, but the outcome of it all 63 looked good to the new college arrivals. The orange and black remained in the possession of its willing defenders throughout the melee of two hours' duration. Next in order of exciting events came the Sophomore party at the K. C. hall. In accordance with custom the Freshmen dropped around to show their interest in the affair. After a little friendly scrapping, in which the pet police force of i’ozeman took a needless part, the party progressed quietly. Quickly following this party the Freshmen held a fine one of their own at Maxwell’s hall. Most of the attending couples managed to elude the bands of scouting Sophs who patrolcd the streets and reached the hall in safety. A few were captured, but they were well treated and were soon allowed to be tardy attendants at the party. Upon hovering about the entrance of the party hall a small number of Soph hoys were caught and propelled in one way or another up the stairs. These visitors sang and spoke in splendid style and were afterward invited to partake of ice cream. Their hungry efforts were pleasant to watch. The party then progressed without a ripple to mar the smoothness. Then came thoughts of an inter-class football contest and with the thoughts a lot of talk and parley, but due to bad weather and complications with the college regular squad the idea was abandoned. In place of this a basketball game was planned and a close and exciting contest followed in which the result could not be told until the last minute of play. The final score was 13 to 11 in favor of the Freshmen. The team then met a snag in the form of the champion '10 five and went down to defeat by 37 to 17. This defeat was partly offset by the victory of the girls' team, which defeated the Juniors by 3 to 2 on the same evening. After hard training on both sides the Freshman wrestling champion defeated the Sophomore representative on the mat. Thus ended the physical contests of '13 with its rival '12 and other classes for the fall of 1909. Next came an event of a different nature. The annual inter-class debate between the Sophomores and the Freshmen was a meeting of much interest and importance. In a worthy contest three members from the Freshman class won the decision over the pick of the Sophomores. Hoth sides had decorated the rostrum in fitting style and turned out in force to cheer their speakers on. The rooting was lively and the feeling good between victors and vanquished. After all these matters of primary importance have been explained it is not out of place to return incidentally in true Freshman style to the trend of the class’ college work. The members are about evenly divided in the departments of home science, engineering and agriculture. It is to be regretted that some have fallen by the wayside and their absence is felt. It is the hope of their comrades who lived through the mid-year exams that they will not allow this backstop to smother the ambition that brought them all here together. ’n r' ' 1 So ends the short talc of the deeds and misdeeds of the class of Xinctceri Hundcrd and Thirteen. 6 i g r u t u r n in itt u n i r Uluair!

Of these, thirty-three are known as recognized schools” of pharmacy, i. e.. they hold membership in the association known as “The American Conference of Pharmaceutical Faculties, an outgrowth of The American Pharmaceutical Association. The mission of this association is to promote the welfare of pharamcv and pharmacists as well as the public, and it was decided that this could best be done by uniformity in education throughout the states. Along educational lines, it was proposed to unite such schools as maintained certain standards oi entrance requirements and curriculums of instruction. The standard course adopted was the two-year course, such as is outlined in this institution, and out of which students who finish the regular college entrance requirements graduate from the regular Sophomore year. This action of the association has not only inspired various schools to raise their standards, but State Boards of Pharmacy as well. Graduates in pharmacy, whether from the two or the four year course, are required by the law of most states to continue their education from two to four years in actual practice of their profession before they may become registered pharmacists. The demand for scientifically educated pharmacists and pharmaceutical chemists was never as great as it is today. Not only are salaries of those employed as clerks being increased. but more opportunities for advancements are offered. The demand for college graduates is at present greater than the supply. M $ h a r m a r tj Since the enactment of the National Pure Food and Drugs Law, an added responsibility rests upon the pharmacist in making pharmaceuticals and in the examination and testing of drugs and chemicals according to the standards of the United States Pharmacopoeia made official by this act. The necessary knowledge of the sciences upon which the art of pharmacy is based is acquired best and most economically in a school of pharmacy. Our laboratories arc equipped with apparatus, drugs, and chemicals for manufacturing and analyzing the preparations ot the United Statc Pharmacopoeia according to the official methods, in which the students receive special instruction. Members of the present class all graduate from the two year course, which is so arranged that those who have the regular entrance requirements may receive the collegiate degree upon completing two additional years in the college. Any graduate, after four years of practical experience, is granted registration papers by the State Board without further examination. A three year course has been added this year for the benefit of those who have only the minimum entrance requirements, and to allow students the opportunity of extending their pharmacy education over three instead of two years. At the last meeting of the State Pharmaceutical Association, the work being done by the college was approved and the course highly recommended to those wishing a course in pharmacy. The present year will close a very pleasant, satisfactory, and successful period in the development of the school, and the graduates arc recommended to the retail pharmacists and citizens of the state. 69 P r e p a HE Preparatory department of the Montana Agricultural College was organized at about the time that the institution was chartered, for the purpose of providing the elementary training requisite to admission into the college classes. There being no age limit, and the equipment being in advance of most of the high schools of the state, the attendance for this department rapidly grew, till in point of numbers it was the important part of the college. This situation was maintained for a number of years. Early in the life of the department it consisted of a one year course, later it was increased to two years, and then the three year system was adopted about the close of the last century. This was continued till in 1909. when, together with the high schools of the state, it was placed on a four year basis. This eliminated the graduating class for this year but was a good step in the direction of rigid standards for the institu- tion. • Miss M. A. Cantwell is. and has been for some years, the principal of the department and teaches most of the English offered in the course. There is no other regular instructor in the department, the subjects of history, mathematics, physics, etc., being taught by regular college instructors. The students in the preparatory department have nearly the same privileges accorded the -tudents in regular college courses. They are eligible to all the collegiate teams, both ath- r a t it r u Ictic ami oratorical. In past years they have played an important part on these teams, although the increase in number and efficiency of the high schools of the state has tended to reduce the attendance and the steady increase in collegiate students has tended to make the cases of preparatory students forming a part of the teams more and more rare. The prep, students are barred from the Arena, Stags, and Docs, but to counterbalance these affairs there is the annual Armstrong prize for the winner of the Declamatory contest, open only to students of this department. This event always has excited considerable interest and many of the students who later became known as efficient and forceful public speakers received their initial taste of the work in that contest. In connection with this line of work is the Philoniathion Literary Society, which maintains high literary standards and provides excellent training for its members, at the same time reflecting credit on the instruction offered in the department. During this year the attendance in the department has been about forty, divided about equally between the three classes. Most of these have been loyal supporters of college activities, and many have taken a more or less important part in athletics. Several of the members bid fair to make a place on the baseball team and some promising track material comes from the preps. They have maintained their literary society, accomplishing through it just as much as has been done by 72 the college societies of a similar nature, and have taken active part as Boosters. Between semesters of last year a custom of having a general jollification, similar to that of the Stags and Docs, and occurring on the same evening, was instituted. This custom was observed by this year’s students, who gathered ior a party in Maxwell's Hall, where a good time and splendid feed was enjoyed by all. Some special stunts were provided and the permanency of the innovation assured. The goat employed in this case may not have been full grown, but lie was effective. to say the least. At this party both girls and boy. are present, differing in this way from the organizations mentioned above. The general tendency of institutions of higher learning throughout the country seems to be to abolish their preparatory departments, yet it seems probable that this step will not be taken here for some years at least. The advantages to be gained through a course in this department over a similar course in a high school decidedly outweigh the disadvantages. The glimpse secured of higher education is not obtainable in the average high school, and often results in a desire to proceed further along the pathway of learning. The laboratories arc equipped more thoroughly than those of the average high school ami the instruction is of the best. These elements aionc go far towards making necessary the mainten tnee of the department. What is lost in being in a secondary school and barred from the different high school activities of the state is probably more than regained through the association every day with those who have proceeded farther towards the goal of a finished education and the consequent absorption of a broader view of life. Whatever may be the future, then, of the preparatory department, the past has been one of activity and success. A great many young people have come with the intention of only finishing the equivalent of a high school course, and lnve stayed to take up the higher branches of learning with credit to the institution and to themselves. The present position of the department with respect to the whole institution has become less imporant, nevertheless, it performs a service which is almost indispensable. A greater proportion of the graduates go on to take college work than is the case with most high schools, and. after all. that comes near being the true measure of the effectiveness of a secondary or high school. And the department is justly proud of the achievements of those who have thus forced their way upward through the maze of higher learning and most of those who now make up its attendance are looking forward to the day when they, too, will receive the papers which will make them eligible to the college proper, and are dibgently training both mind and body in order that they may reflect further credit on their secondary school. 74 r tj n o I uf Agrirulture IX THE fall of 1906 the School of Agriculture with Prof. V. J. Elliott as principal was opened in order to give young men who expect to become farmers a practical training in farm work and to develop a love for farm life by showing the possibilities of scientific agriculture. The first year about 20 boys registered for the course and since that time the enrollment has increased. Last October 41 students were registered. At the end oi the first semester the examinations found a few below grade in their work and these were dismissed, but a good number completed the term. This year a basketball team was organized and two parties were given, both of which were well attended. Eor the first time there were two graduates from the course. Fred Taylor and Joel Jackson, both Bozeman boys. They had completed the three years’ work and were given their diplomas on Friday, April 1. The course offers a splendid training to young men who have not the time to spend a full term in school, and is growing in popularity rapidly, every year bringing with it a larger number of students. (Dttr-tjrar (Cunrsr in ffiousrluili trmtomg HE one year course in household economy was started in the fall of 1900 in order to give those who cannot take the time for a four year course an opportunity to learn something of the systematic and practical work oi home science. Necessarily the work is elementary, but a good knowledge of the problems of home life is obtained. The first year eight students were registered but only two completed the year's work. Since that time, however, the number of girls in this course has gradually increased until this year twenty-five were enrolled. Only ten of these will receive diplomas. The thinning out process is due mainly to the assuming of matrimonial obligations. The members of the class this year have organized under the name of the Diamond Ring club, the emblem of which is a solitaire. This club and the emblem thereof may explain in part the reason for the popularity of the course. The work includes studies in cooking, sewing, sanitation, household economy, music or art and English composition. As far as possible both the theory and practice of these studies is taken up. but especially in cooking and sewing the time is spent in practice. During the second semester work in the dairy may be taken if the students desire it. More girls arc registered in this course every year and arc taking advantage of the opportunity which it offers. 76 77 I sing the long bright road oi summer time, The road that leads away from toil and fret And wanders blithely by a mountain stream. I sing the days our hearts will not iorget— Those days of camping near the friendly stream. Then wild birds sing our early morning hymn And pine trees whisper low and sweet. “Good night!'’ Then like a cup that overflows its brim. Each day is filled with out-of-doors delight In open road or woodland shaded dim. The joyous view from conquered mountain crest. The wary trout that hides in shady pools. The sweets of wild rose fragrance, wind caressed. Our happy camp fire when the evening cools, We find not one. but each of these, the best. Long may the walls oi old Storm Castle rise: Long may West Gallatin roll grandly on; While we alone may not renew those tics. O joy, O summer time, O loved ones—gone! Hut Oh thank God for memories! —Mabel Kinney Hall. 79 60 ' iljll Atlilrtir Aaaoriattmt ©Burrs President ......................................Louis Pool Vice-President .............................Gretchen Fiskc Secretary.......................................

McIntosh (Tram fllatianrrn Football—Court Sherit'f Basketball—Elmer Sleeman Baseball—James Drinville Track—Edgar Allen Girls Basketball—Clinton Booker 81 HE 1910 football season opened with very bright prospects tor the college team, more men reporting on the field for practice and more interest being shown on every hand than was the case in the previous season. There was also an abundance of new material and most of the members of the '08 team showed up. This was due mostly, perhaps to the strong bid that the team made for the championship the season before, and to the heavy schedule which had been filled in the spring. The line consisted of the same men who played on the team before and was the heaviest in the state but an entirely new backfield had to be dcvolped. with the exception of one man, Archie Brown, who was chosen captain. Jamieson played at quarterback during the first part of the season but later he was replaced by Chambers, who showed himself to be capable oi handling the team skillfully. Tremper. who showed up well in the line the year before, alternated with Davis at half back, while Ray Smith and Chambers carried the ball from the left side of the backfield. The schedule included more games than for any previous season, and besides the state intercollegiate games the team had a fine trip to Utah extending over six days, during which time games were played with the Utah University and Utah Agricultural College teams. This was the longest tour that any Montana team ever made. Games were also played with the School of Mines and Montana University. It is the plan of the coach to arrange as heavy a schedule for next year's squad, and the trips will be an incentive for many fellows reporting for practice next fall. Although the team loses seven of this season’s players the team can be filled out with the material which was developed in the second squad and the freshmen players who will enter school in the fall. LOUIS K. 1 001.. all-stale end. Louie Pool had never donned football togs until the fall of 190S when he reported to Coach .McIntosh and asked to be taught the game. How well he learned can be guessed when it is known that he was the unanimous choice for all-state end at the close of the last season. He was paiticularlv good at the new game and his run for a touchdown through a broken field and after a triple pass in the Thanksgiving game with the ’Varsity was the most spectacular play of the year in Montana. ARCHIE BROWN, captain. Than Archie Brown, who came to M. A. C. from Great Palls four years ago. there is no steadier, more consistent backficld man in the state. At the end of the 1908 season Tom Norton was elected to lead the 1909 team, but his failure to re-enter school left the position vacant and Brown was elected. Archie played fullback throughout the season, it being his second year on the team, and his work was most creditable, his backing up of the line on defense being particularly effective. He was one of the younger members of the team, weighs 165 stripped and is a trifle under six feet in height. COURT SHERIFF, manager. Manager Sheriff played left tackle until a badly sprained ankle three days before the second game with the School of Mines forced him to the side lines for the season. At the time of this injury he was voted one of the strongest tackles in the state. Like Brown. Sheriff had had but one year's football experience, but he learned the game with rapid strides. Sheriff, who is a Helena product, is a grand type of lineman, tipping the beam at 200 and being even 6 feet tall. He has been elected captain of the 1910 team. at SAM POUND. One of the hardest tacklers wearing moleskins last fall. Sam Pound made a valuable utility player, being just beaten out for a regular berth by Pool’s speed at one end and Taylor’s weight at the other. But Pound is right in line for big honors next fall and his friends expect to see him develop into a crack player. WILLIAM TREMPER. left half back. Like the other members of the M. A. C. team Bill Tremper had no real knowledge of football when he came out in 1908. He alternated at tackle and guard that season, but in 1909 was utilized at left half from which position his fierce plunges and vicious tackles left deep impressions on the opposing teams. He is not fast, but is fierce and strong as an ox. Bill weighs 165 and should prove one of the mainstays on next fall's eleven. S4 EDWARD CHAMBERS, quarterback. Scarcely weighing 140 pounds Chambers was the lightest man on the entire squad last fall, but what he lacks in weight he makes up in aggressiveness and wiry strength. He graduated from the Scrubs last fall about mid season and re-placed Jamison, who had been going from bad to worse. Next fall look out for this Freshman quarterback. He is scrappy and gritty—exactly what our team needs. AY SMITH, right half. Like his brother Walt, Rav Smith is far from being a giant in size—he weighs a scant 150—but he is there with the sand and determination. He was one of the few members of the squad who had never handled a football having played with the Livingston high school, and if some of his playing last fail as a Freshman is any criterion of future prowess, he should develop into a star backficld man. JACK TAYLOR, right end. Taylor played his first football last season. Hailing from Chinook, where the game has never been introduced, he got out with the Scrubs as a Freshman in 1908. His speed and size tempted the coach to try him at end and he made good last fall. Jack has two more years on the team and next fall will probably be a candidate for fullback. Experience should make him a star. RALPH COOLEY, right tackle. Ralph Cooley was one of the stalwarts who made the M. A. C. line the best in the state last fall. Cooley was the only man on the team with former experience. He weighs 178 and is strong in proportion. An old lameness retarded his speed, but he was always in the thick of the fray. He quit school in the middle of his senior year and will not return next year. WALTER SMITH, left guard. Never as heavy as the man he opposed in the line Walt Smith usually managed to hold his own. He played center in 1908 but was placed at guard last fall and did equally good work. In the first game '• ith the University last October he suffered a dislocation of the shoulder which interfered with his playing later. Smith weighs 165 without his togs. FRED WAIXHLI, center. Although Walchli saw and learned his first football in 1908 he proved a terror to opposing lines in 1909 and only his lack of experience kept him from earning all-state honors which went to the University snapper-back. Fred, who tips the beam at 170. is a bunch of bone and sinew and he put this to good use in football, tackling like a fiend and passing the ball with accuracy. «! GILBERT HANSEN, left guard. Gil. Hansen alternated with Walt Smith at guard last season and his work stamped him as one of the best men in the line for next fall if he only returns to school. Hansen is one of the biggest men on the team. He measures 6 feet. 2 inches, and tips the beam at 186. He played his first football in 1908 as a sub. Gil. put up a great game against the University in Missoula last November. JOHN' WHITE. Jack played with the Scrubs at the North Dakota Agricultural College, and with his 200 pounds he was expected to prove a star for the M.A.C. But lie suffered with “charlic horse” all season and could not get into proper condition. Although lie understood the game well, he was kept irom regular practice by his condition. He substituted at fullback and tackle. 86 EDWIN HODGSKISS. right guard. Hodgskiss had the distinction of being the youngest player in the state last fall—he is 17. lie was positively green to the game when he laced his cleated shoes last fall, but he made good from the start and next September lie should prove a star. He is steady, fast on his feet, fearless and strong. He will probably be shifted to center. Hodgskiss. who is a product of Teton county, weighs 170. V1LLIAM DAVIS. With another year's experience Bill Davis should make a good half back for he weighs 175 pounds and is well over 6 feet in height. He was somewhat green last year and never seemed able to think quick enough to meet emergencies, but he played splendid ball against the L’tah Aggies. Davis is fast for a big man. 87 to 'F.F.MS somehow the football season. Of the year nineteen nine. 1 ends to hold a kind of blank space. In our student body’s mind. Several times did welcome victory, Seem quite safe within our grasp, But she slid from out our clutches, With a fierce heart rending rasp. We can lay the blame to no one, For our fellows, to a man Fought his best, from start to finish. Just to raise the awful ban. But, believe us. we re not kicking. 'Cause we didn’t win the cup. No. we rather praise our warriors. For they never did give up. Even tho’ defeat was certain. All our future hopes were high, For we knew that hard luck storm clouds, Could not live in our fair sky. 89 same basketball squad that represented the college m in all the big games '«i la� ; year again succeeded in bringing home the intercollegiate championship i Montana. This is the sixth time in as many seasons that the honors tor basketball have stayed in the Montana Agricultural College. This year the quintette also made a fair bid to be Rocky Mountain collegiate winners but lost to the University of Utah. In many ways the season just closed has been a most remarkable one. For the first time in years a college team won from the boys on the local floor, and this is the first occasion in the history of basketball that a Montana team has carried away a victory from Bozeman. Previous basketball records show no trip of an outside college team into the state. Financially, last year’s record is a wonder. Two crowds of over five hundred spectators turned out to witness the Billings and Utah game here, and over $40 was cleared from the contest with the Mormon boys, notwithstanding the fact that a guarantee of $200 was paid to their manager. Over $400 was left in the coffers of the athletic association as a result of this season's work, which is the greatest amount cleared by any one branch of college athletics in any of the Montana institutions up to this time. With Sloan. Sleeman. Brown, and Pool, the four stars on the regular team leaving, the prospects for a winning aggregation for next year are not overly bright, but when the same condition was faced two years ago, the team which is claimed to be the fastest that ever represented the college was developed, and it is possible that the trick can be repeated in the coming sason. GLENX SLOAN (captain), right forward. Cap- J tain GUnn Sloan played his last game in a gold and blue uniform against the University oi Utah, completing three seasons oi brilliant work on the basketball floor. He was the lightest forward in Montana, weighing less than 140 pounds, but he more than evened up for this lack of weight by team work as well as individual effort. Sloan is cool at ail times, wiry and a crack basket thrower. LOUIS K. POOI-—Center. During the 1907-08 sci on Louie Pool played guard, but Pool has played center two years and is regarded by many as the best player in the pivot position the college has had. Seldom has Pool met a center who could “get the ELMER SLEEMAX (Manager), Left guard. Seldom in the history of the college has a player been able to make” the basketball team in his preparatory or Freshman years, but Elmer Slceman is an exception. Sleeman is a type oi the powerful, well built guard, and not only watches his man closely, but makes enough baskets himself to help swell the score. It is regretted all around that Elmer will not return to college another year. 91 VIES ANNIN, left forward. Jimmy Annin proved the surprise of the year in 1908 09 and during the season which closed in March lie lived up to the reputation made the preceding season. He has a style all his own, occasionally missing comparatively easy shots and a little later bringing the crowd to its ice: with some sensational play. He is the only member of the team to return to col lege next year. jump on him. It was largely through getting the ball at center so regularly that the M. S. College team has been able to keep up such splendid team work. Pool graduates in June, but is considering returning for another year. ARCHIE BROWN—Right guard. Archie Brown was one of the three new players to break into basketball a year ago. Sleeman and Annin being the other two players who filled the placo ol Hartman. Red Wilson and Otis Keeler. Brown, like Sleeman. is husky and big. He graduates this year, and bis loss will be keenly felt as be is a reliable football player as well as one of the steadiest players on the basketball team. 92 uf Basket Ball OSamrs, 1003-10 Bails' Cram Dec. 18—M.A.C. ...................... 41 Mont.

A pitcher had to be developed and a new outfield as well as part of the infield. But these problems were solved one by one. Wright Gray filled the position on the slab occupied for four years by Bill Mart-man. Jimmy Drinville fitted in at third. Everett Hamilton was found in the old place at first while Captain Bert Hinds and Dave DeMuth took care of short and second respectively. In the outfield Donald Butter covered center field acceptably. Harold Wolpert did good work in right while Lisle Henderson and Pool alternated in loft field. There were two intercollegiate games played, both with the School of Mines. The first game took place in Butte and was one of the best and most exciting games ever played between amateur teams in the state. The College took the lead, but the Miners tied the score—3 to 3—in the third inning. In the tenth the Mines won out on a lucky scratch hit with a man perched on second. There was another story in the return game, played in Bozeman. The College won by 11 to 6. The bunting game proved the undoing of the visitors. A third game was proposed by the College so that the tie for the championship could be definitely decided, but tittle was too close to commencement and so the season ended in a tic as did the season of 1908. The 1910 team looked even stronger than the team of a year previous. Gray, the pitcher, was absent, but Ole Snyder, who was employed by Coach McIntosh and the players to round the nine into shape, had good success developing a {linger. The infield and catching department were both stronger than in 1909 and the outfield good. Unfortunately there were no college teams to play this spring so the boys had to be content with two or three practice contests with nearby town teams. Everett Hamilton is captain of the 1910 team. James Drinville is manager. 96 HILE the College gets credit from the other colleges i of the state for having a finely equipped gymnasium the fact of the matter is our present gym is only good enough for basketball and so no regular, systematic class work has ever been attempted. However, the time is near at hand when the college will have one of the best gymnasiums in the northwest and then every student in school will be expected to do some work, however light, for his or her physical betterment. But it must not be understood that the basketball team includes the only students who derive benefits from the present plant. For the past two years Athletic Director McIntosh has encouraged wrestling and boxing and he himself has instructed these classes with the result the college can boast of many husky young men proficient with the gloves or on the mat. Then too not a few of the students have spent considerable time punching the bag or using the chest weights or medicine ball. In all about ioo boys have spent their afternoons in gymnasium work during the past two winters and from twelve to twenty girls have spent considerable time there playing basketball. One of the features of the basketball games for two years has been the boxing and wrestling matches. These matches have proved popular with not only the students, but the down town patrons. At each game some ambitious boxer or wrestler would be eliminated from the field of active participants through defeat and in this way a system was found that could 96 decide the school championship. Thus Fred Walchli won the wrestling championship while the boxing honors went to Jack Taylor. It is the plan of the athletic director to establish gymnasium work for all students when a place adequate for the exercise is furnished, the girls’ and boys’ classes to report each twice a week, the girls to be placed under a lady instructor, and both boys and girls to be given credit for their time. By this system every student in college, weak and strong, will have been benefited by the gymnasium. 99 100 (0 f f i r r r a President Homer C.

As two sides of our college activity arc to be thoroughly pictured, discussed and cartooned it seems that it should devolve upon someone to say something about the has-beens. something about those who struggled for four years with the prescribed problems of their Alma Mater and are now struggling with the problems prescribed by the world. How well they are attacking 101 these problems of the world we will try to outline in some of the paragraphs to follow, but it is perhaps sufficient to say here that most of them arc occupying positions of trust, and some have established reputations which arc indeed enviable. It may not be amiss to mention here some of the questions which have been troubling a number of the alumni of this institution and some of the college authorities as well, viz: just how much loyalty a college graduate owes to his Alma Mater after he has passed from school life to life’s school, and just how much in turn this depends upon whether or not there has been a distinct line of demarcation between college life and world life; whether the change from school life to life’s school has been a jump or a slide. Whether or not this has actually been the ease must be answered diffcrctnly by different colleges. Whether the graduate of a college feels after he has completed his course that he still has some link binding him to his Alma Mater will depend a great deal upon the traditional atmosphere which surrounds it. Now, this atmosphere is not created in a day but is made up of the sum total of the best of the thoughts of the students who have gone before. Each one of these when he has attempted to excel in honest rivalry and has rooted well for his home debating or football team has contributed his mite to these traditions which will be handed down from one generation of students to the next. Every college furnishes material for an epic poem, and while this poem may never be written, its inspiration should never be forgotten bv a college graduate who has gotten all there is to be gotten out of four years of college life, and any graduate whose patriotism for his Alma Mater is not aroused by the mention of her very name has missed something in his education. As was said before it takes time to create the e sentiments, time to establish traditions which shall last for centuries and the institutions which arc rich in traditions are the ones that have many prosperous years behind them. It is probably a fact that every college goes through the stage where there is no segregation of classes, absolutely no difference in the dignity with which the members of the different classes deport themselves, and where the democratic spirit is carried to the limit, but it has never yet been demonstrated that a college can be successfully run on the democratic plan, and so as a member of the Alumni Association of this college, the writer wishes to enter here a plea for the creation of a new college atmosphere and a start toward the construction of our college epic. I.et the memories of M. A. C. stand for something more than the mere “cramming’’ of lessons and doing of tasks, necessary and commendable as these may be. With this end in view and for the furtherance of the interests of our Alma Mater an Alumni Association has been formed and last year a constitution was adopted the object of which is. as stated in the preamble, “to promote a spirit of fellowship among the graduates of the college and in every way possible to advance the interests of their Alma Mater throughout the state. Over half of all the graduates of the college are already active members in this Association and it is hoped that by another year a much larger percent will be represented. This matter of boosting our own college is after all not an entirely unselfish one. When the institution which granted our degrees grows, we grow with it and whatever advances her standing in the educational world also enhances the value of our degrees. However, whatever may be the motive involved, whether it be a selfish or altruistic one. tthc effect ultimately will be the same. The object therefore, for 102 the formation of Alumni Associations is that the graduates of a college may more effectually advance the interests of their Alma Mater in general and themselves in particular. While the Alumni Association, as such, is rather a recent organization yet annual banquets have been held by our college graduates for a number of years. The first banquet was held in the dining room of the Department of Home Science m the year 1903. Sixty persons were proem, twelve of whom were members of the Senior class and ten others earlier graduates. In 1904 the second banquet was given, again in the dining room oi the Department of Home Science. Although there was no graduating class the following year (,1905). it was decided nevertheless to give a banquet and this time it was held in the Bozeman Hotel. In 1906 the banquet was served in the parlors oi the Methodist church bv the Ladies' Aid Society oi that church. In 1907 and 1908 the Bozeman Hotel was again made the annual meeting place. In 1909. the Association having just previously adopted its constitution, held its annual banquet in the new dining room of the then new Agricultural Hall. Although it has been only 14 years since our college began to send its graduates out to take their places in the procession of the world's workers, yet we find that we now have representatives in 19 states and territories of the Union, one in South America, and one in Canada. The distribution by states and territories is as follows: Montana 58. Utah 5. New York 4. California 3. Colorado. Washington. Wisconsin, two each: Maryland. Missouri. Nebraska. Iowa, Arizona. Kentucky, Massachusetts, Michigan. Ohio. Idaho, and Minnesota, one each. The college has granted in all 98 degrees of collegiate grade, five of these being Masters and 93 Bachelors. Of the latter 6 have received their degrees as a result of work in Agriculture, 34 as a result of work in Engineering, and 53 for work in Home and General Science. At the present writing 17 different occupations arc living pursued by our graduates a nummary oi which is given below as follows: Some branch of engineering 27. teachers 24. students 11. housewives 7. Experiment Station workers 4. merchants 4. farmers 3. attorneys 2: miner, veterinarian, banker, nursery manager, forest supervisor, chemist. V. W. C. A. secretary, matron, and solicitor, one each. In looking forward it is plain to be seen that there is a large amount of work that may be accomplished by the Alumni Association ior the promotion oi the welfare of the college. As has been already intimated it can take an active part in the establishment of college traditions: it can become active in the inauguration of new policies ior the institution; and it can see that every member oi its body has the chance at least to develop the very best that is in him. IOi Business Manager...........................Roy B. Williams Assistant Business Manager...................Earl A. Lannin The Engineers Society came into the activities of the college in 1904 under the leadership of Former Professor Couper, oi the Mechanical Engineering department. Its function was to bring lecturers on various engineering subjects before the engineering students and supply books at cost price. The supply business is still carried on in the name of the society but the lecture business has been supplanted by the Electrical club and the Civil Engineering society, which have been organized since that time. The supply business will doubtless pass into the hands of a 104 proposed stock company within another year and the Engineers' Society will be no more, its interests having been absorbed by the other organizations. The society has held no meetings this year, to any one's knowledge, at least, but in the event of the stock company not being formed a meeting will be held toward spring at which officers tor the ensuing year will be elected. These consist of a president, vice-president, secretary, sergeant-at-arms, business manager and assistant business manager. Upon the two officers last named the burden of the work falls. The business manager is one who has served one or two terms as assistant and has been trained in the hard school of collecting bad debts, taking care of the supply room when the manager is absent and other mean work. The manager receives salary enough to pay his laundry hills provided they are not too large, and puts up something of a bond as a guarantee that his accounts will check in the spring. The assistant charges his services up to experience. The president and secretary preside in the usual manner in the event of a meeting and look wise the rest of the time. The Engineers’ Society has served a very useful purpose in its day. but the watch words of the age arc progress and specialization. A stock company with a capitalization of one thousand dollars could supply books to the entire student body more expeditiously than is done under the present system and the number of the students in each of the engineering departments is such they arc justified in drawing apart and pursuing lines of study and activity peculiar to their own profession. 105 CLUB. President ...... Vice President.. Treasurer........ Secretary ...... .....C. C. Kennedy ........II. Wolpert .....S. A. Williams ......E. A. Lannin The Electric Club is no.v near the end of its third year, having been organized in May. 1907. During the past year regular monthly meetings have been held, and a number of important lectures have been given. Some of those who have addressed the club on electrical engineering subjects arc. Mr. J. U. Siegfried, operating engineer of the Missouri River Power Co.: Mr. II. H. Cochrane, engineer of the Butte Electric Power Co.: and G. Rosenblatt, of the Westinghousc Co. This year the club was fortunate enough to secure Mr. C. 1.. Zahin of the Interstate Independent Telephone Co. to give a lecture on the automatic telephone, for which purpose he had with him a complete demonstration set of apparatus. 1'loyd S. l.orcntz, '07. gave a very instructive addicss on his experience in drying out water-soaked electrical apparatus, on the use of electrical machinery in mines, and on the repairing of transformers. Clinton Booker gave an interesting address before the club, in which he explained the electric show witnessed by him in Chicago. The annual electric sho v was a greater success this year than ever before. The committee in charge and the Department of Electrical Engineering, through Prof. Thaler, have spared no time and expense to secure novel features, some of the most important of wlrch were the automatic telephone, oseillagraph. the speaking arc light, and the electric hammer. 106 107 President...................................William J. Krenter Vice President..................................D. K. DeMuth I I IIVII I ) Secretary-Treasurer Ralph Brahrook Born into the world a little more than a year ago, the Civil Engineers society may be said to yet be in life’s stage of pinafores and swaddling clothes. The prattlings of some of her members and their insatiable appetite would seem to substantiate this fact, yet when we consider the master minds that have banded themselves together beneath the sign of the transit wc find that the theory of the child is father of the man is here verified. The members are level headed, on the square and as upright as a string holding a suspended plumb-bob. Their domes of thought have encompassed much knowledge while here, proving that an oblate spheroid has a greater capacity than a sphere of like dimensions. The Civil Engineers’ society has solved the equation and has the correct formula for that perplexing problem how to enjoy life. Sunshine lights the countenance even though snow does sometimes drift along, making them wear high hoots, or they are brought to Kneal to understand the mysteries of mechanics. Space forbids an enumeration of all the moral, physical and mental virtues to which these men are pledged. Rectitude of conduct is most characteristic. Valor in the face of impending danger, such as coffee pot explosions, has been frequently demonstrated. Physical endurance has taken them on many excursions on the prairies, to the summit of the mountains and into the bowels of the earth. All know of the brilliant mentality required to pass civil engineering examinations. So it is truly an honorable distinction to be a member of the society. There are at present thirty members, five of whom will receive their diplomas this year, so the gates of the wide, wide world open to them. May they easily wade through the difficulties which beset their path, looking toward success with the clearness of vision and discerning eyes of the true engineer. IO.H 109 President ....................................Charles Hansen Vice President..................................John Taylor Secretary ......................................Leroy Willey Treasurer.......................................Marvin Spain The Agricultural Society deems it a pleasure to once more be able to announce that it has passed safely and successfully through another period of its existence and can now look back at the record of the past year knowing that sonic good has been accomplished. Interesting and instructive programs have been given by the members throughout the College term, and occasionally the society was favored by a short address by some member of the faculty. In these programs the topics discussed were limited to Agricultural subjects, thus giving the members an opportunity to become better acquainted with the most important questions that are now confronting those who arc interested in the advancement of Agricultural Science. The plan of supplying all agricultural students with books has been continued, although as vet the system has not been perfected. There is now a movement on foot, however, to form a stock company to begin operations next fall. If this is done, and it very likely will be. the method of furnishing supplies will be on a good working basis and those who have charge will receive some compensation for their services. Another important feature of this year's work was the public program given in Assembly on Friday, April 15th. The students who took part in this made a very creditable showing, and although it was the first attempt, it was declared a great success. no Ill President ...................................... Ruth Flager Vice President .........................................Mary Wylie Secretary-Treasurer.........................Blanch Metheney kEALIZING the benefits to be derived from co-operation, the girls of the Home Science department organized in the fall of 1909. with eleven charter members. The purpose oi the club is to 3rouse an interest in the subject of Home Science, to aid the members in their work, and to assist the new members in becoming better acquainted with the object oi the course and with each other. Throughout the year regular meetings have been held at which the members took part in the interesting programs which were given, and in this connection the club iccls indebted to Miss Harkins. Mi Ballinger and Miss Brown for the interest thev have shown in the development of the society, and for the valuable services they have rendered by their suggestions. At the meetings, not only were subjects discussed which were of interest in the course here, but considerable time was devoted to giving the members a broader view of the Home Economics movement in general and what it means as taught in various institutions throughout the United States. In order that the student body might be given some idea of the work it was decided to give a program in Assembly. This consisted of several papers written by the members, recitations and music by the girls double quartette. The program was very interesting as well as instructive, and voted a success by all those who heard it. Ml girls in the regular four-year course in Home Science arc eligible to membership. 2 Ili pHAf MACEffitAL OCIETY President..............................Charles P. Valentine Vice President.................................S. J. Crosby Secretary-Treasurer..........................Blanche Conard Among the numerous and varied student organizations of the college, a new-comer has this year taken its place in the ranks under the title of the Pharmaceutical Society.” All students enrolled in the school of pharmacy arc eligible. As the name implies, the meetings of the society are devoted primarily to matters of a pharmaceutical nature, and thus promote an interest in the current literature and events of both scientific and practical pharmacy. At these meetings, papers and discussions are given by members of the society, and when possible, practical pharmacists arc secured to give an address. Prof. Mollctt oi the School of Pharmacy contributed several interesting and instructive papers at different meetings. Although in its infancy, the society has enjoyed a successful year, and its growth and progress will go hand in hand with that of the School of Pharmacy, as the latter continues to grow in the favor and approval of the pharmacists of the state. It is further to be hoped that the society eventually prove to be a strong factor for the encouragement of pharmacy as a profession, and that it command an enviable and prominent place in the future history of the institution.

The general plan of the organi-zation is to secure action through its executive committee, composed of the regular officers and of one member from each of the college classes and one from the preparatory department. This committee has no regular time of meeting but is subject to the call oi the president. The officers arc elected annually by the student body, the class representatives arc selected by the classes themselves. It is always the endeavor, in selecting these officers to choose those most interested and most competent in the work, and to that end a clause in the constitution providing that no officer should take part in the contests was officially ordered stricken out last fall. The Executive committee formulated a challenge to debate early in the year and forwarded it to the State University at Missoula. The latter declined the challenge, and so the hopes which have been growing stronger each year were once more dashed to earth. The disappointment incident to this action on the part of our sister institution was soon wiped out by the receipt of challenges of a similar nature from the Agricultural College of Utah and the Wesleyan University at Helena. Both of these challenges were accepted and so this year sees the institution engaged ior the first time in two inter-collegiate debates. The first of these was on the subject: Resolved—That Cities and Villages Should Own and Operate Their Public Utilities. The debate a held in Helena on April i and resulted in a decision against the representatives of M.A.C.. the speakers being Florence Gatton. Myrtle Aldcrson, Charles Fraser and Rhoda Dawes, alternate. The second contest was held in I.ogan, Utah, on April 29 on the subject: Resolved—That a Central Bank be Established. to be Owned and Operated by the Federal Government. This was the first debate with an institution outside the state of Montana in which the college has ever taken part and marks, officially, the beginning of such relations which arc expected to be extended in future years to several other colleges of the Northwest. The men who journeyed to Utah on this commission were J. M. Spain and W. J. Kremer of the regular team and J. C. Bell, alternate. Next year a return debate will be held in Bozeman and preparations for this event will be instituted early in the year. The annual oratorical contest for the Chisholm prize occurred on April 22. An especially large number of aspiring orators were entered in this contest and the general judgment of those best fitted to judge was that this was one of the best contests ever held here. The prize consists of $20 in gold and the winner also represents the institution in the Intercollegiate contest, which was held this year at Missoula. n7 President..................................... .Dave DeMuth Vice President........................................Charles Soper Secretary-Treasurer ....................................James Annin organization which has done more to promote good athletics than any other factor this season is the Booster’s f Club. A mass meeting of all the boys in college was called early this fall and the club established. A tax of fifty cents was levied on each member, and this money was spent in buying cord wood. oil. and fireworks for the various football celebrations, bunting for the wagons in which the teams were hauled to the football grounds, and this club also donated the programs for the first annual football dance. It has been the duty of the Boosters to assume the leadership in many of the college affairs which have been so successful this year, such as football rallies, promoting the raising of money to buy pictures for the assembly hall, work on the athletic field, etc. The first exhibit of the Boosters was before the football game with Missoula, when the boys assembled for a big rally, rigged themselves out in special hats, and hauled both teams to the fair grounds. That evening they showed the U boys around at the dance and shows and did other things which helped in establishing the college friendship which exists between the “U Miners, and this college at the present. At most of the basketball games the Boosters got togcthci and gave yells and songs the entire evening. The Boosters arc also out at the track or baseball grounds every night encouraging the fellows who take part in those branches of athletics. The Boosters are proud of their record and will continue to be the rousing spirit for athletics and other college activities. ns Sonatprinpa President................................... Gladys Franzman Vice-president ............................Rita Shellenberger Secretary-treasurer ..........................Blanche Conard X Februarv on the seventeenth day some oi the enthusiastic girls of the college held a meeting for the organization of a club. The purpose of this club was to awaken enthusiasm among the other girls and also to encourage the boys who had already organized a boosters' club. So the Boostcrines, as they called themselves, sprang into existence as one of the live wire departments of college life. At the second meeting, which was held the week following the date of organization, finances were discussed and since financial backing is necessary towards making any movement a success, various methods of raising funds were u.lked of. The decision was in favor of giving an Old Maids' Convention” in Assembly hall April 8. Before the deciding vote, however, there was a great burst of enthusiasm and good genuine college spirit took hold of all Boosters and Boostcrines. The boys made arrangements for teams, scrapers and shovels to be in readiness and the girls planned a feed. At the appointed hour Saturday morning. April 2. the boys were at work—starting the leveling of the athletic field within the quarter mile track south of the tennis courts. In the meantime the Boostcrines were busy in the Domestic Science department and at 6 o'clock 85 hungry boys sat do n to a Baked bean, brown bread, hot biscuit, apple pic, cheese and ice cream supper. They had enough they said, but their enthusiasm was not reduced and so the dishes were soon washed and chairs and tables back in their places and some of the more spirited did the Virginia Reel. It was decided to make this Labor Day” an annual event at M. A. C. The Boostcrines. although a new organization, have acc v.uplishcd a great deal this year and it is to be hoped the club will keep up the good work. 119 President................................................June Hartman Secretary ............................................Blanche Conard X Club was organized during last December and consisted of the members of the staff of the Monthly Exponent d and sonic of the contributors. The purpose of the organization was to improve, as far as possible, the standard of the Exponent. Soon after the organization it was concluded that the publication of a W eekly paper at this institution was a necessity and so it was decided to issue the first number immediately after the holidays. The new paper required the services of a larger staff and this new literary talent was added to the membership of the Club with the result that its members now number twenty-one. The plan of the organization has conic to be the discussion, informally, of live subjects in connection with the college and to talk over plans for the Monthly Magazine. These discussions are held at the monthly meetings at the home of members and have resulted in providing a broader view of College Life for the members. Among the most interesting of the subjects taken up was “What a College Education Means to Me.” This brought out the purpose and expected results of college training very effectively and precipitated an animated dispute on several points. The Club has now been given the full charge of the Monthly and Weekly Exponents and will hereafter select the editor-in-chief for these papers. It is a self perpetuating organization, the plan being to choose the staffs as far as possible from the members of the club and thus insure experienced hands at the helm at all times. Additions to the staffs arc made on a competitive basis in order to secure the very best workers available. 120 ! 'resident ... Vice President Secretary .....

The old chronicles of the time relate how, upon the eventful day, a certain black cat whined a mournful desertation which to this day has not been interpreted. After a study of the position oi the stars at the time there came to one of the Arena members the revelation that the black cat was the society's mascot. This revelation was interpreted to mean that the affairs of the society were to be kept dark, meetings to be held after night-fall, and the members to be as sharp as the claws of the feline. Whether this revelation was inspired or came as the result of a late supper is immaterial. The fact remains that the sociciv possesses nine lives, and when butcheicd by its enemies springs again into life, even as the Arena candidate does v.hen he grasps the caudal appendage of the sacred cat. Whether it has been the feline or a more potent force that has guided the Arcnians. they have ever climbed upward. . e a- thc:r mascot docs when a dog is on the trail.

The girls, because they are Hamiltonias. elected Ruth Flager. President: Grace Kirk, Vice-President; Planch Methency. Secretary; and Frieda Frischkc, Treasurer. They hold frequently meetings cvery-so-oftcn in Some Room or Other. I.o and Behold! In the Primitive part of the year, being as they were Hamiltonias. they had a Gay-Kimona-Party. at which they planned a real funeraly funeral to bury the poor, stupid, pokey, dead Arena. And also at the same time they tittered and screeched. � See our Arena boys, 'Aint they sweet?” and there is much less in that than you would think. Attend and listen! The aim of this most active society at M.A.C. , whose membership at the present time is thirty-eight. is to cultivate literary tastes in the women folk.” They recite recitations, they debate debates, they play worthy music, they give recently current events, and eat “Sciency-food”, which means very chocolatley and whipped-creamy. Thus ends this talc. Isn’t it enough? 124 125 HILOMATHION Trcsident .

During the five years of its existence the membership has composed nearly all the students of the preparatory and it has been at all times active as a literary organization. The plan of procedure has been to hold meetings twice a month, this year at the homes of members, at which programs consisting of debates, essays, recitations, orations and newspaper articles have been given. The conduct of the meetings tends to train those taking part, in the art of extemporaneous expression and also in the methods of conducting business under parliamentary rules. During this vear the society has not been so active as in former years but. nevertheless, some good work has been done. Most of the present members will remain over another year owing to the change from a three to a four year basis and consequently an active and advanced interest in the work is expected during the next college term. 126 127 Ray I£.

The organization has held its own this year and gains have been made in some of its departments. For the regular weekly meetings, out side speakers are procured as often as possible. The attendance at these meetings is improving. Considerable interest has been shown in the meetings oi the mission study classes. These meetings were both helpful and instructive. The Cabinet, composed of the officers and committee chairmen, has met once each week to consider the problems brought before the association. Considerable help has been given students by securing employment for them and by helping them to find boarding places. 126 129 YWCA President..... ddie Kimpton Mission Study Committee.C.racc Clark Vice Pres.....Effic Carmichael Meetings Committee.......Mary Wylie Secretary..Rita Shcllcnbcrger Intercollegiate Committce.Junc Hartman Treasurer......

Starting with sixteen charter members, the association has grown til! at one time er ninety girls were enrolled. this number including nearly every girl in college. In carrying on the religious side of the work, a devotional meeting is held each Tuesday at noon and Bible and Mission study classes are conducted at other times. The annual week of prayer and the annual day of prayer arc always observed. In the social work, the most important events of the year arc the reception for young women and the joint reception with the Y.M.C.A. for all new students at the beginning of each school year. Our association has kept in vital touch with the National and the World YAY.C.A. Since 1903 it has sent 011c or more representatives to each of the summer conferences. During the past two meetings of the Student Volunteer Conventions, the association has been represented, by Bertha Morrison in 1906. and by (iracc Clark in 1910. The members of the association have been very faithful in their work along different lines, and many of the faculty have, bv their encouragement, financial help, and assistance in every way. made it possible for the YAY.C.A. to be one of the strongest organizations at college. iso 131 President...................................Edgar V.

January 7. 1910. The plans for the new venture had not been made kno.vn to the student body and so it was a complete surprise to them when they were each pre ented with a copy with the very latest news. The first two issues were of four pages, four columns in width and fourteen inches long. The space in that size was inadequate, however, and the third issue appeared in an enlarged form, being five columns in width by eighteen inches long. It has since remained that size. The policy of the paper is to give the activities at the college the attention they deserve and to place the record oi these activities before the students, faculty and former students regularly in order to increase the appreciation of the breadth of scope of the work carried on at the institution. The publication affords the very best means of keeping informed on all topics connected with the college. The subscription price is two dollars per year, which includes the Monthly Magazine. All the work on the paper is done by students, and membership on the staff is determined by competitive tests. The Weekly Exponent has a broad field to cover ami in future years will probably be enlarged beyond the fondest dreams of its founders. That it fills acceptably a place which was long neglected is admitted by everyone and that it provides excellent training for those who maintain it is apparent. The influence which it will wield in the future depends entirely upon the energy and ambition of its staff. 134 I3S (Tiie monthly Exponent June Hartman..... Eugene Ouaw...... Hazel Fox........

In later years the M j entire management was transferred to the student body who elected each year an editor-in-chief, giving to him full power to choose the entire staff. For many years the Monthly was the only student publication and was therefore left with the responsibility of publishing the news of the institution and student body and also the story of the classes. That this was well done admits of no doubt, but os time went on there was a demand for greater space for both of these features. The custom of publishing an annual was established by the junior class in 1907. The next step toward specialization was taken just after Christmas vacation of this year. The news part of the Exponent. including locals, athletics, etc., was assumed by the newly created Weekly Exponent, leaving to the Monthly only the literary field, but with a chance to expand over that field and cover features formerly almost neglected. With the transtcrral of the news to the Weekly went the change in staff, leaving the Monthly with only the part of the staff whose dutv had been to contribute strictly literary material, such as stories, essays, poems, reviews, and long articles of only a general news value. The rest of the story of the Monthly during this year may he told in a few words. There were six issues published, three under the old regime and three under the new. A high literary standard has been maintained and some very interesting numbers have been published. A prize for the best story was offered at the beginning of the second semester, and resulted in added interest being taken in the work. H6 Sauii (Cmtrrrt iJnujram iflr. Cituis £.

Through the excellent instruction of its organ- izer it made rapid progress, and soon won for itself quite a prominent place among entertainers. Owing to the fact that a number of old members dropped out of school, the membership in the second year fell down to ten. at which number it remained for the next two years. At the end of the second year Mr. Backas left school and Mr. Charles Soper was elected director. The club gave a number of dances which became very popular, and the announcement of one was looked forward to with no small degree of pleasure. The mandolin club accompanied the band on its trip about the state last year, and rendered two selections which were greatly appreciated. As an important factor in the doings” of the Tappa Kegga society the club is invaluable, and on these occasions it has the honor of playing to large and enthusiastic audiences.

This truth is verified f each year when the College Stags initiate their brethren of the Freshman class into the mysteries of their time honored order.. The ordeals which the candidate must pass before he is admitted to the inner gates are many and his path is beset with many dangers. If, at the expiration of 140 days after entering college, he has shown proof of a retentive memory and a IS2 good moral character, the physical director takes his measurements and ascertains whether he has the strength and power to pass the excruiciating initiation ceremonies. If the director reports favorably the candidate passes on to the royal guard of the block and tackle and is swung off into the royal presence of the illustrious potentate of the Stags, whence he is again inspected and if found woithv the secret seal of the order is applied, which mark he may have occasion to show in after years to prove that lie is the “real thing. Having thus been made a member, the deep mysteries of the order arc revealed, after which the new brother is led to the banquet board to partake of a sumptuous feast. The vociferation of the spell-binders telling of the significance of being a Stag follows, while the brethren enjoy the solace derived from a fragrant weed. Hilarity, jolliditv, ecstacy. and tumultuous rapture hold power supreme within the human form that night. As the last star of early morning twinkles in the heaven, the German band plays “Lights Out. and the curtain falls on the greatest drama of the college year at M.A.C. ns Z h r 0 i t r a EI E years ago the organization of the “Deers was formed, the purpose being to hold a festival annually at the end of the first semester. The girls at this time have a joyous time and. according to “secret” reports which occasionally leak out. even the Stags arc outdone by the novel stunts of the sisters. The fifth Annual Party was held the Friday night of “exam” week at the Walter Hartman residence on South Central avenue. .Most of the giris in regular college courses and a few graduates were present. The principal features of the evening were the costumes and the stunts by the different classes. The senior girls showed their qualifications to graduate front the Home Science course with honois by ably going through a der.n� r.stia-tion. Helen Fisher was the demonstrator under Miss Markin's (Mary Wylie's) direction. The other senior girls were “the class. and by their apt questions called out much valuable information and amusement. The most elaborate part of the program was the wedding of two of the most popular members of the faculty. Miss Blanche Mcihcny in an elegant pink princess gown and a window curtain veil and orange blossoms (?) was a perfect “goddess of beauty. Her slender grace was made more marked because of the corpulence of the groom, “Harriet K. Thorpe. Promptly on the stroke of eleven, the bridal party descended the stair ’mid the touching strains of “Ain't Got No Style” (the favorite composition of both the bride and groom). The bride leaned on her father’s (Grace Kirk’s) arm and the ceremony was performed by the Rev. Redbeard (Grace Clark) under the chandelier which was decorated with a ted bell. All the relatives, on both sides fore and aft. were present and expressed their emotions in their own peculiar ways. Congratulations wet c then in order, after which a scramble ensued when the blushing bride threw her bride’s bouquet from the stair ease. Miss Harkins was the lucky lady in this case and is still receiving the congratulations of her friends. Many beautiful and useful gifts were received by the happy couple, not the least of which were: Ten free lessons in cooking offered by Miss Harkins: a calf from Prof. Jones, etc. A very happy and prosperous life is the wish of the Exponent. The Freshman stunt was the next thing on the program and was a life-size, tone-picture of the way some freshman girls take initiation. There was great joy among the old Does as they saw history of a year ago repeat itself, and as the screams and groans of the dead and dying penetrated the night air. Alter the smoke had blown a va a delightful feed was prepared, after which singing. Indian wrestling, and other sports were indulged in until the party broke up at an early hour.

A Day’s llUirk on thr Athlftlr 3Firli 164 At apgtt Sit thr Catr ffinurs XX 'I IIE gray dawn of early morning on the 25th of March, 1910, twelve horsemen and a carriage were seen moving eastward along the public highway leading from Bozeman to Chestnut. Soon the news was floated across the continent that the Civil Engineers were headed for Washington. A rare combination of circumstances caused the failure of the expedition, although the corporal in command, Coxey DeMuth. Johnson Dahling, William Jennings Pool, and the men of their army displayed much valor before being forced to capitulate. Upon reaching the big spring. Private 1‘rocbe‘s mount proceeded to bathe itself in the invigorating mineral water. taking the rider along thus delaying the march. At this time General Snow erected his camera, took a shot at his own men. disabling many of the troops, and wrecking the artillery which he used. The command was now given to proceed to Chestnut, and to the strains of martial music and beneath the ensign of the transit, the troops proceeded onward. It was now high noon and soon the camp-fires glistened on the heights of Spion Kop. Brigadier-General Livingston, sole survivor of the memorable coffee pot explosion, tramping about on his wooden leg, announced that dinner was ready. Soon the troops were in the midst of festivities, and Private Williams was discussing the merits of domestic science biscuits as deadly weapons, when the news was brought into camp by Scout Chapman that General Booker had fortified M.A.C. with a big 9-inch gun. Orders were at once given to go into ambush. The army at once proceeded to the depths of a nearby mine, and were soon wandering about in the subterranean regions. When nightfall again lowered her mantle on the wicked world the insurgents retreated from whence they came, and thus endeth the 23rd verse of the 13th chapter of the history of the Civil Engineers. 166 UUU (Official JfaatbaU iSulra RULE I.—The game shall start on the main iloor immediately attcr Prcxic has given the signal of release at assembly.

McDonnell Bozeman, Montana Both Phones No. 60 Long Distance Phone No. 60 and 316 Did You Know that the Famous Gallatin Valley “The Egypt of America” Comprises the richest agricultural land in the world; that it raises more grain to the acre than any other section of the United States or Canada: that grain from the Gallatin Valley has won prizes in competition with that from all parts of the world, and that many trainloads of Gallatin Valley grain arc annually shipped to foreign markets because of its superior qualities. HERE ARE SOME OF THE AVERAGE YIELDS PER ACRE: Wheat, irrigated ..................65 bushels Barley.................................... 45 bushels Wheat, uon-irrigated. ...........40 bushels Potatoes..................... ....400 bushels Oats...............................70 bushels Timothv hav............................4 tons THESE ARE FACTS It is also a fact that approximately S6.500.000 worth of farm products were shipped into Montana in 1908. simply because of the lack of people to properly develop the agricultural resources of the State and thus supply the demand created for these products by the mining and stock raising sections. Bozeman, the metropolis of the Gallatin Valley, is only 98 miles from Butte, the greatest mining camp on earth, and only 96 miles from Helena, the capital of the State: hence, there is always a ready cash market for all products of the Gallatin X'alley farm and garden. For these and many other reasons, the Gallatin Valley offers unsurpassed opportunities and inducements to both the homeseeker and the capitalist. If you are looking for a location where you can buy A-i improved farming lands, irrigated or non-irri-gated. at bargain prices, where crop failures are absolutely unknown, and where energy and ability arc sure to meet with a substantial reward, then come to the Gallatin Valley. There is no better field in the Northwest today for profitable investment. For further information regarding farm lands, timber lands, water power, industrial opportunities, business openings, railroad rates, or other things of interest to the investor and homeseeker, address.
