Feeding Poultry.

One who pays ~ attention to the
matter will soon learn about how much
the flock viii eat and not DO hungry.
This may be told by paying some atten-
ton to the condition Of tho fowls as ia
flesh They should not feel fat when
picked up, but should bo nicely plump
and round, and if they begin to fail in
flesh or fall off, as the case may be, tho
amount of food given them should be
regulated accordingly. Feeding on the
free and easy plan is poor economy, and
will III the end ruin the laying qualities
of any flock, for it will induce disease,
and the very first symptom of disease III
any flock is the decrease Of egg produc-
ton, that always comes with the lower
ing Of health of laying hens Feed
plenty, but not too much. This is mat
ter that is very largely neglected by
farmers and all who do not pay particu-
lar attention to their poultry. Farm

way of curls or waves. besides collecting all
the dust and cinders that are aiioat in the
air. Brushing has time out of mind been
considered the best sort of treatment, but
not long ago an innovatOr came out with
the assertion that it is most injurious, de-
stroying the new hairs before they have "A
chance to grow. This may be taken with a
grain of wholesome doubt.
1t is much easier to say what should not
than what should be done. Oil or grease of
any kind makes the hair straight, stringy
n unpleasant to the touch and is an en-
envy to neatness. Soda dulls and dries it.
Sulphur stimulates its growth. but is too
odoriferous to be pleasant. Simple meas
ures in this matter, as in most others, are
best. The hair may be washed as frequent,
ly as necessary, for If it is quickly dried a
bath does it no harm and greatly improves
its appearance. A little common salt, fine
toilet soap, ammonia or alcohol may be
added to the water and the hair afterward
be dried in the sun or by artificial neat. 1t
should not be touched with brush or comb
until it is thoroughly dry. This treatment
will keep it clean and soft, and no hair is
beautiful without these attributes, no mat
ter what its color or thickness.
A sketch is given of an evening couture
in which the front hair is curled and the
waved back hair arranged in a twist end
ing in five puffs on the crown Of the head.
The left side is ornamented with four erect
wings or ears. JUDO CHOLLET.

A salary ordinance was passed by the
city council last Monday evening. This
instrument las in view some radical
changes in the salaries of city officials.
The salary of the city clerk was raised
from $50 TO S75 per month, that of city
attorney from s75 to 1926, while the sal
airy OF the mayor vas reduced from
$1,000 TO 5000 per annum
Now, economy should be the watch,
word of our city fathers, and every item
that can be saved the taxpayers should
be pared down to the lowest possible
point. This is what the people demand
in u municipal government, and this
is not what the aforesaid ordinance had
in view. The services of the city clerk
are well worth s75 per month; in fact
this is but small compensation for the
amount of work performed. But the
need Of an increase in the salary Of the
city attorney is not so apparent. How
ever, nothing is likely to be done in the
matter, as it is the opinion of u lead
ing attorneys that the ordinance il
wholly illegal and contrary to the laws
of Montana, and Mayor Gelsthorpe has
in consequence signiied his intention tc
veto the matter.

way, gentlemen, and be sur you are

The Typewriter, who Copied Letters. on
the Witness Stand.
WAsHTNGToN, April 3.-Interest in the
Breckenridge trial was intensified today
over the presence of two strange ladies
sitting at a table with the Pollard forces.
1t is surmised that one is Louise Towel,
the stenographer to whom the alleged
letters were dictated by Col. Breckin-
ridge. Judge Bradley does not seem to
relish the testimony Of Col. Breckenridge.
Butterworth opened the question of the
admissibility of the alleged correspond
ence with Madaline Pollard in 1886.
Judge Wilson assured the court that the
evidence was discovered only last Sun
day and asserted that they proposed TO
put the witness on the stand at once so
that Breckenridge might have time for
explanations. A spirited discussion fol.
lowed as to the admissibility of the dis
puted letter il found. Judge Bradley
decided that there is no doubt about the
admissibility of the letter itself. Louise
Towel took the stand. She said she
copied letters on Il typewriter for defend
FAINT, returning the letters and the copy
of the envelopes addressed to plaintiff.
She produced a memorandum book
showing the entries. The first commu-
nication began: my Dear Sister Louise

A Good Word for the Newspaper.

At a recent business convention Gov.
Francis of Missouri, who is in a position
to know whereof he speaks, paid tribute
to the local newspaper as follows:
Each year the local newspaper gives
from $500 to 5000 in free lines to the
community in which it is located. No
other agency can or will do this. The
editor, in proportion to his means, does
more for his town than any other ten
men and in all fairness with men he
ought to be supported-not because you
like him or admire his writing, but be-
cause the local paper is the best invest
ment a community can make, 1t may
not be brilliantly edited or crowded with
thought, but financially it is Of more
benefit to the community than the
teacher or preacher. Understand me.
! do not mean mentally or morally, but
financially, and yet on the moral ques-
tisn you will find most Of the local pa
pers on the right side. Today the edit
srs Of the home papers do the most for
the least money Of any people on the
face Of the earth"

An invention has been made which
promises much for the finishing of
houses internally. 1t consists of a proc
csS by which marble dust from quarries
and yards is collected. made into II paste
with water and cement and tnon put uu-
der tremendous pressure. The resulting
substance resen. blrs marble in IA marked
degree, but it can be nodded into any
shape. l~nkstands, workboXes and other
small articles are formed from it as well
as mantels and panels. 1t can be pressed
into very thin slabs, the paste of which
it is made being colored and veined in
imitation Of any desired kind of marble.
1t can to a great extent replace wood in
the inside work of buildings very advan-
tageously. Reaches, rats and other ver-
min tnat infest wood could find no hid.
ing place or nest in this artificial marble.
1t would be cleaner, safer and more
wholesome than woodwork almost every
where.

HOW TO CARE FOR THE HAIR.

A Few Simple Measures For Beauiifyinl
1t, and u New Couture.
How to care for the hair is a never settled
question. The market is full of nostrums
for identifying, restoring and preserving
it, while there is an unceasing supply of
contradictory recipes for it's treatment.
One writer mentions sage tea as a dressing,
but does not add that it should he used
only by brunettes, as it is inclined to dark

borax should always be dissolved in the
water in which the hair is washed. But
borax, although it keeps the hair soft and
clean, makes 1t fall out as fast as it grows
in.
Somebody else advises the use of ~vaseline
and glycerin. These articles may be bene.

Opposed to the Bill.

WASHINGTON, April . Secretary
Smith has transmitted to congress an
adverse report on the house bill provid-
ing for the restoration of 1,SGl square
miles of land in the Yellowstone Nation
al psrk domain. The secretary says the
segregation of land is the result Of OBJ
structing the enforcement of regulations
for the government of the park, owing to
the squatting by poachers, trappers and
other undesir able characters. The
boundaries are now fixed satisfactorily
to the department and no good reason
for the proposed change is known.

that a body of strikers intended to march

and force the men to stop work. In the
Scottdale district all the plants are in
operation. The feeling among foreigners
throughout the entire region is very bit
ter. They seem well supplied with
dynamite.

The county commissioners having in
view a retreuchment in the expenditure
Of the county finances, ordered the cleo
trio lights taken out Of the court house
and county Offices. This economical fit
will save the county but a trifing sum.
This is done to enable them to pose
before the voters Of Cascade county
rs an economical board. Will this
parsimony hoodwink the public
to the fact that last month the
board paid Sl,475.6l for the county
printing, which could have been done
for 800 if thrown open to honest com
petition? Will it blind the voters
to other expenditures to which the light
bill is not a drop in the bucket, and
which could have been far better spared.
In case, which is more than probable,
coal oil or candles have to be used on
occasions, will this pitiful attempt al
economy compensate for the additional
danger from fire, or offset the increased
