signs Of Prosperity.

I.
There are not wanting some signs OF
advancing prosperity. Business il be-
ginning to brighten in many quarters,
and while the demands are 50 slow and
small as to produce no visible effect upe n
the markets of the country, still We are
on the move upward. The one thing
necessary now is patience. We cannot
expccs rapid advancement. We have
been scraping along the bottom 50 long
that ii will be many months before we
shall be able to reach what might be
termed a high point in prosperity. The
advance will be slow, but the growth
will be solid and substantial and will
lead ON to permanent prosperity. The
greatest enemy the country has now to
face is the spectators. They are greed
iIy watching every movement of the
market and will not hesitate to sacrifice
the prosperity of the country to Their
own interests. When, as Is the case
with us at present, single individuals can
control millions of money, prosperity
will always be menaced, more or less
but eventually the markets will work
out their own salvation, and then the
working classes will have an equal claim
with the capitalists.

aKild. western journalism. 2

The reckless indecency Of wild West
ern journalism" has long been notorious.
That western newspapers should greedily
seize upon the unsayory revelations Of
the Pail Mall Gazette and spread them
before their readers by thepage. in all
their disgusting detail, was therefore
what every Eastern person expected.
The expectation was realized as to more
than one prominent newspaper in the
west. But there was conspicuous ex-
ception. The st. Louis Globe-Democrat
Joined the syndicate which ordered the
mess of garbage, received the 6 900 words
of noisome matter-and then suppressed
the whole thing, upon the ground that
no editor of any decent newspaper could
''think of printing such vile monotony
of nastiness and justify himself to him
self for doing it." Considering all the
circumstances-the cost of the long dis
patch, the fact that the paper had a
monopoly of the business for its city and
region, the certainty that its publication
would have run up the sales of the edi-
ton by tens of tl.ousands-we do not
hesitate to characterize the action of the
Globe-Democrat' editor in throwing the
matter into the waste basket as one of
the most honorable incidents in the his
tory of American journalism. The con-
ductols of sundry newspapers in New
York, Philadelphia, and other eastern
cities, if they are not lost to all sense Of
shame, must feel the force of such a
singing rebuke as this from "the Wild
| West -

1t is well known fact that Mr.. I. !.
Dawes, of Bozeman. an Old-time demo-
Graf, tried and not found wanting in his
fidelity to the party, is an applicant for
the position of Indian agent for the
Crows. Mr.. Dawes has full knowledge
of the wants and requirements of these
Indians; they know and like him and
there seems to be no good reason why
he should not be made agent. His J,eti-
ton has, until recently, been very gen.
orally signed by citizens of the lower
country. Lately, however, Richmond
has entered the field He is stockman
of the Rosebud named De Hart. Mr.. De
Hart, for aught we can say,is an efficient
man, but at present writing there is a
well-defined feeling against any stock
man being placed over the affairs of the
Crow reservation. Such an event, while
it would be pleasing to Custer county,
would be greatly injurious to Yellow
stone, who have desire that this domain
may be thrown open to settlement, in
stead of being made cattle range. De
Hart, it is said. has the backing of Post
master-General Villas and Pat Kelly, OF
St. Paul.

An experienced farmer Of this valley
gives it as his opinion that the wide
spread presence of smut is entirely the
fault of those who do not thoroughly
clean and "vitrol" their seed. Smut, he
says, will stick to anything, and that it
is absolutely necessary to thoroughly
clean the seed with ian, wash out the
grainery, wash the sacks and soak the
wheat in vitrol water. b. following
this mode of procedure his wheat is en-
tirely free from smut, while many of his
neighbors are cutting their wheat for
fodder, His theory is evidently correct,
as it is well-known that smut will con-
taminate every kernel of grain in which
1t comes in contact.

The specimens will be forwarded by the
agent of the n. P. Express Co. or w. w.

should be labeled, giving its name, yield
per acre, weight per busheI and other
information, so that due credit can be
given. These samples will be exhibited
In st. Paul and elsewhere. We trust
that general response will be made by
our farmers, who are prepared this year
to make an exhibit that viii do full Jus
tice to the agricultural resources of this
region. Any specimen sent to the

warded by the publisher.

Milo Collins, the haIf-breed injun, who
placed $4,000 in one of our banks this
week, started in the business Of stock
raising with two or three head of cattle
a few years ago. Yearly he he's dis
posed of a portion of his increase and
last week sold his band for 1921 900. This
shows the possibilities of stock-raislng.
Milo is married to deaf woman of the
Crow tribe, and takes life very easy, sur
rounded by his horses, COWS and his
piebald offsprings.

In reference to the smutty wheat, Mr..
James Stewart, one of the most success
full farmers in this valley gives it as his
opinion that clean seed well washed
with vitrol water-about one gallon to
four or five bushels-and sown on dry
ground, properly prepared, will not yield
smut. He has never had smut on his
farm, docs not wash his sacks, and is
decidedly of the opinion that it is not
necessary. Regarding squirrels, Mr..
Stewart says that he fills a gallon can
with good wheat, pours boiling water on
the contents, allows it to stand few
minutes, then pours the water of, places
pulverized strychinne In the wheat to-
gether with some granulated sugar. He
then covers the can and allows the mess
to stand for several hours, until the
wheat becomes glazed with the syrup
and strychinne. At any season Of the
year the squirrels viii ravenously devour
this bait if placed near their holes.

1t ig 10 be regretted that Miles City
gives residence to such willfUl sensation
alists as now exist there. Last winter the
Pioneer Press correspondent circulated
the story that cattle were dying by the
thousands, and the news was sent to the
remotest parts of the east, considerably
injurying the cattle industry of this ter
ritory. Last week another damaging
and malicious story was sent forth
through the same channel regarding the
Cheyenne Indians. One would natural
~ suppose that Miles City, who now
lays claim to being the stock center of
of the world, would see to it that such
injurious thrusts at her chief industry
were checked.
