The Independent-Record from Helena, Montana • Page 3

Helena, Monday, March 24, tSU. That there should have been a call on Montana for a supply of grain for tho use of the British Boundary Commission engaged in defining and marking i suitable monuments the lino between the British possessions uod the United Slates, was entirely unexpected. Nevertheless, one quarter of a million pounds of oats ha've, within the last twelve or fourteen days, been quietly bought for that purpose. The contract to supply the grain on the line was awarded to Messrs. E.

Maelay and by that firm sub-let to Messrs. I. Biker Bro. of Port Beiiton. Messrs.

linker Bro. entrusted the responsibility of purr-basing and forwarding to Mr. S. O. Ash by.

of this city, who so quietly and adroitly managed the business that ho secured suftk-ient to nil the contract before the fact of the became known. In consequence of this demand, from 1111 unexpected source, coupled with the usual demands from freighters and military posts, oats have materially advanced in price, to the benefit of our fanners, for which we feel not a little thankful. Iii addition to the above, we have to report the purchase here diii-ingthe past week, by Messrs T. O. Power of three hundred thousand pounds of oats, the prices ranging from to per hundred pounds.

Tho present quotation is $1.75 hundred pounds. Hf I US 6 1 Main Street. FlllHT-CLAvSS WINKS, UQUUitS, CIUAIIS Have Pleasant Parlors and the Best Attendants. OPEN BAY AND N1UUT. Superintended by COi.

The quails arrived at Corimio from California in dueseasou, from whence they were to be shipped for Helena in the morning; but when morning came the birds had liown-- some sporting Corinnethian having removed the slats from the hoxes and giving the birds their liberty, so that they might increase in numbers and furnish the sportsmen of Coriune rare sport at some future time.
