5a "What benefit is the Montana Stock
mems association 10 us? This is the
question which the Dakota stockmen are
asking, and no one seems to be able to
answer. They say, I'VE have paid our
money whenever it has been asked for,
and in return supposed we would be
entitled to some Of the benefits Of the
association. Late developments would
seem to- indicate that such are not the
views Of the association. We think it
important and M that not only Dakota
interests but those Of eastern Montana,
demand that we should have a stock
inspector located at NIedora. We are told
by the association that they scan not fur
:nish one sbec cause ell the :inspe ectors are
employed and paid by the Board Of
stock commissioners and are Territorial
officers. and the funds to pay them are
iraisedsby; taxation, which is paid to tho
county TTeasnrers, who in turn pay the
inspectors: It seems a little strange
that no arrangement has been made for
emergencies Of this kind" It will be
remembered that tho BAD LANDS Cow
Boy, from tho start advocated that it
would be better to have an association Of
our5f own here in Dakota, but it was
thought at the time by the stockmen
that the expenses Of q separate associa-
tionS would be greater than the benefits
We were likely to receive. It now looks
as il we were: likely to pay two expenses
for one benefit, as the Montana associa-
tion says that If there is an inspector
here the stockmen must pay forit them
selves. tits to be hoped that the Mon
tana association will reconsider The mat
ter and do the fair thing by US.

It is going the rounds Of the news
papers that the new administration is
very aesthetic in its tastes and will here
after favor all postage stamps with
lemon or vanilla, with a slight (s)tinct-

manufacturers that they complete the
business by applying the mixture to the
upper left hand corner Of all envelopes,
asit is the style, in many Localities to-
lick TINT instead Of the postage stamp.

Good Advice.

The Northwest gives this good advice: "We
wan to say word to Dakota farmers. Diver
sify your industry. Don't depend on wheat
alone. Wsknow it is fascinating crop-so
easy to rasie and SO profitable, at least in the
calculations on paper-but there is more money
to be made in general farming. Raise oats
and barley. Try Indian corn as an expert
ment on small scale at first. Keep few
head Of stock and a few dozen hens Fatten
pigs for your pork supply. Above all, keep
COWS enough to supply your family with butter
and milk, and have surplus butter with whiclr
to buy groceries"
