A fact from Fur trade in Montana appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 23 November 2014. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that after 1832, John Jacob Astor's American Fur Company dominated the fur trade in Montana on the upper Missouri River by using the paddle steamer to transport goods?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Did you know archive/2014/November. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Fur trade in Montana.
