I THE HARDIN TRIBUNE VOL. III NO16. HARDIN, YELLOWSTONE tiUNTA , MONTANA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1910. PLR YEAR. MIDLAND COMMERCIAL CLUB WELL ATTENDED The Inland Commercial Club of the Midland Empire held a well attended and enthuastic meeting at Fromberg in the Clark's Fork valley on Tuesday Sept., 6th. Fully 300 attended from Billings, Belfry, Huntley, Hardin, Laurel, Broadview and Ballentine. Before dinner the party was •• taken out in buggies and autos to the Rev. Clark's apule orchard and other orchards near. The most harden skeptic as to the possibilities of raising apples in eastern Montana must have been convinced. Apples were on all hands --apples in boxes ready for shipment, apples in bins, apples on trees and apples on the ground; apples to suite the taste of the most. fastidious and apples to sat- isfy the eye of the most critical; apples for cooking, apples for eating, apples for preserving, apples in fact to burn. Every farmer in the Big Horn Valley should have beer there to get pointers on the cultivation of what is to make eastern Montana famous and rich. On returning to Fromberg the party was entertained lavishly by the ladies of the town and after dinner the members of the different delegates were called on for remarks and many inter- esting speeches were delivered. After dinner the delegates from the various commerical bodies were called to order by Mr. Camp and proceeded to transact the business of the association which resulted in the laying of many plans for the advancement and developement of the Midland Em- pire. On invitation the next meeting will be held in Huntley. Hardin men of business should get more in touch with the Cen- tral Comiriercial Club and take a more active part in its work. Its purpose is to bring together the commercial bodies of the Yellow- stone and Carbon counties that concerted action may be taken -in all matters pertaining to the corn- - mon interest. Much more effect can be produced in this way than by the individual action of each commercial club. Eastern Mont- ana has opportunities for develop- ment surpassed by no part of the country and it is up to the busi- ness men and people generally to 'exploit them. Let the people of Hardin wake up and do their best. - One who was there. State Fair Attractions Helena, Mont., Sept. 8 -The racing program at,the Montana State Fair in this city, Sept 26 - Oct. 1, is the best ever offered and every indication points to the largest number of ttnimals being quartered at the track in the history of the institution. This statement apPlies, both to the running and harness events. while the same is true of the au- tomobile races, of which there will be several each day. The secretary of the fair has return- ed from Bute and Anaconda, where he succeeded in securing an unusually large, number of of entries for the various run- ning events, while the regular entries for the harness events are better filled than ever. In the automobile division there will be daily races for stock cars, for touring cars and for the regular racers. Among the latter is an especially built machine of 250 horsepower, con- .structed by a Billings resident for this event. The driver is he same man who had such a 'narrow escape ibr his life two imam faiz-o. when a bursted tire threw the machine into the fence and literally dismantled that and the machine, but the chauffeur escaped without a scratch. He was likewise the driver of the machine a year before when an oil tank exploded and he was sent a mile or more in a burning blaze of glory before he could re- gain control of the machine. That Van Luven will again be in some sort of a spectacular affair seems certain, for he has deter- mined to establish a new record or learn why, as the machine is powerful enough. Despite all the racing attrac- tions, however, including -the cowboy's relay event - of three miles daily, it seems safe to prognosticate that the race be- tween man and 'air will prove the most spectacular. At a meet- ing of the execusive committee, the contract entered into be- tween Secretary Martin and Glen H. Curtis for daily airship flights. was duly approved, thus ass -r- ing the most spectacular event of the fair in the history of the northwest. Mr. Curtis announc- ed in a letter read at the meet- ing that 1. C. Mars, perhaps the best known eastern aviator, will be here to make the assents. Mars is the man who recently had so sensational an experience off New York in his airship. A - cloud struck the machine and percipitated it and the aviator into the ocean. Both were res- cued, however, and early next week Mars will start for Helena with a new Curtis aeroplane. Supper and Musicale. The young ladies of the Catho- lic church have arranged to give a chicken pie supper and a musi- cale for the benefit of the church on Saturday evening Sept., 17th, in the Becker hall. The supper will be ready to be served prompt- ly at 5:30 p. m. All those who are troubled with good appetites are invited to come and fill up, all those who suffer for want of an appetite are urged to come and get one --then fill up. The supper will be followed by a musical pro -ram which is being carefully arranged. Don't for- get the date. Star Attractions. The attractions at the Star Theatre Saturday evening will be \Off San Juan Hill\ \For the Cause of Suffrage\ and \The Gamblers Passion\. The illust rated son; Smile.

A party of our city nimrods crossed the Big Horn river Wed- nesday in search of ducks. They headed for a rancher's home who had promised to show them where they could find good shooting. As they approached the duck field they all tiptoed to the edge of the water and was gratified to see the little stream literally lin- ed with the feathered family. That, they all might get a fair show one of the parties crawled several hundred feet when at a given signal fire was opened and for a few moments it just rained ducks. After the smoke had cleared away some dozen or more was in sight on the water but out of reach. To get the slain fowls the rancher ran a mile for the neighbor's dog and on his re- turn just imagine the chagrin of these conceited sports to find that the supposed ducks were all measely mud hens. However. they were not to be daunted and continued their hunt which re- sulted in the bagging a number of the real ducks, After the finding of the game the party returned to the ranch- er's home where a royal spread awaited them. The lady of the home said she was not surprised that city fellows should be de- ceived by mill hens but that she was ashamed to think that her husband who has lived by a duck pond All his life should not be ab!e to tell a mud hen from a duck. Am Staying. I am informed that while I was spending a few days in Billings recently that it was rumored that I had left Hardin for points un- known.
