Beauty that shines In the light of truth,
Is a subject fit for a MUD more sage.
0, sing ye poets Of heightened fame,
A. they sang In the good old days gone by
Paint every feature above your name,
Twill bear it up TO the goal most high.
Beauty Of youth, fair, bright and gay,
We owe thee ten thousand songs and more
Inspire us till we sing and Guy,
Thou art our goddess till life 10 DER"

EDITOR BorTiNRAU PIONEER,
Dear Sir. saw a piece in the Borrl-
NEAu PIONEER of January 18th. and l
would like to say a little concerning it,
viz. THE Russian Thistle" As l had a
little experience in the months of April
and May. 1893, in Valley County, Mont.
where it abounds. l consider that in Civ
ing my opinion concerning its faults and
uses that I can do no great harm.
To commence with its bad qualities. it
is very bad to spread and you must wear
a pretty thick soled boot to keep it out
from your foot 1t also makes it very
hard to herd any animals where you use a
dog, as many dogs will get laid up, it be-
ing impossible for them to miss tramping
on it SO thickly does it grow. had a lit
tie experience of the pain it will inflict if
you should happen to tread on i. with pro-
lection on your feet of insufficient thick
ness. One night in April, 1898. a COM
pany and myself were camped on the
Kedwater near Poplar with some horses
when there was some noise as if the hors-
es were going. so that I jumped up from
under my blanket and ran toward the
spot where the horses were, not thinking
at the time about the thistle, and as l had
no shoes on my feet, I can assure you |
did not 60 far until l had to shout for
some one of the boys with me to fetch a
light SO that l could find my way back
without tramping or more of them-but,
of course, this was no blunder for an
Irishman to make.
The good quality of the thistle is not
much, as far as l can recommend, only
that l know it is a first class weed for
keeping sheep alive as the following will
show you. There was a large prairie fire
in Valley County. and in consequence.
the sheep owners had to move their sheep
in many cases from home ranches, SO as
to find some unburned prairie. and they
could not find any way to feed them on
their journey unless on the thistle, and
in many cases. thousands were moved for
80 or 40 miles in safety.
