Stays Engineer and Robs Train.

Missoula, Mont, October 24.--East-
bound passenger train No. Q, on the
Northern Pacific, was held up last night
near Drummond, Mont, at a place 45
miles from this city and Engineer Dan
O'Neill was killed. O'Neill had been in
the service of the road longer than any
other engineer.
The train, which included mail, bag
gage and express cars with nine coaches,
left Missoula at 1920 p. m. It arrived
after midnight at place two miles east
of Drummond. Here the train was sig
nailed to stop, and the engineer accord
ingly slowed up. While doing so he
saw man creeping toward him over the
tender. The man, who was armed,
called to O'Neill to stop the train in
stantly. The engineer took in the situa-
throttle, tried to start the train at full
speed. The robber OWNED his purpose
and fired at him. The shot took instant
effect and the engineer fell dead at his
post. The robber then proceeded to
rifle the express and mail cars. He
plundered tho regular mail and blew
open the safe in the express car, which
was wrecked by the explosion. The
amount of plumber which he secured is
not known, but it is supposed to be
large.
BloOdhounds were sent out at once
and steps were taken to keep vigilant
watch for the robbers. 1t was assumed
that at least eight men were engaged in
the hold-up, but the latest advices are
that one man alone perpetrated the mur-
der and robbery. The mask worn by
the bandit was found on mountain
trail, two miles from the scene of the
hold-up. and after giving the hounds the
scent of tho mask, the animals immedi-
ately took up the trail, which was then
about eight hours old.
The Northern Pacific has offered a
reward of $1,000 for delivery, dead or
alive, of the robber and murderer.

A New Bank at BeIton.

The town of Bolton is to have
another bank at very early date.
Judge W. f. Cox, of Anderson, will
be President and Mr.. J. A. Horton,
Mayorof the town of Bolton, will
be Cashier. The name that has been
decided on is "The Chiquola Bank" ."
The capital stock will be $4,000,
and it is said that practically all the
stock has already been subscribed.
Application will be made at once to
the Secretary of State for commits
sion and the bank will be in operation
just as early as possible, 1t is prob
able that a banking building will
have to ! @ erected, as it is not likely
that suitable building can be Sc
cured in the town. The personnel
of the men who are to manage the
affairs Of the new bank will be a
guarantee of its solidity and success
from the start. They will have strong
business connections, and the new
bank will do an extensive business.
This will give the town of Bolton
two banks and is an evidence of the
growth and development of the town
and country surrounding it. The
Bank of Bolton has been in opera
tion for several years and is one of
the most successful banking institu-
tions of the up country. This latter
bank is under the management and
direction Of Mr.. Robert A. Lewis, a
very successful merchant and busi-
ness man of the town.-Anderson

How Shall the Small Farmer Proceed Z

We are very often met with tho
remark that our advice, and that of
many of our correspondents, is all
right for the large farmers, but is
not suited for the small farmer.
Having only one horse, they do not
see how he is to do. the good work
we plead for. A correspondent in
another column is much exercised
upon this point. We are glad he
has called our attention to it.
We have repeatedly said that the
deep plowing, which is the founda-
ton of all good farming, can be
done with any kind of plow. 1t
does not depend upon the shape or
size of the plow or the number of
the team it is simply question of
the depth of the work. If you get
the soil broken to twelve or fourteen
inches deep, it does not matter what
kind of plow did the work. All the
one-horse farmer has to do is, just
60 twice or three times in the same
furrow with the same plow. The
thing to be done is to get the hard
pan broken.
A turn-plow is not essential to
good plowing. 1t is great conven-
fence sometimes, but not at all ne
cessity. Any plow that breaks the
soil will do.
Again, we wish to call attention to
the fact that this subsoiling does not
need to be repeated every year on
very many farms it never needs to
be repeated at ALL If you do good
farming, after you have once broken
it, the soil will continue to be open
and easily broken for all time to
come. The hard-pan was made by
plowing when the soil was wet.
Now, if you never plow again when
it is wet you will never make any
hard-pan.
When once you get your soil
twelve to fifteen inches deep it will
remain so as long as You do good
farming. The man with one horse
can do this work as well as the man
with four. Of course he cannot 90
over as much ground, but he can 90
over one e.fourth. His one horse can
do as much as either one of the four.
What we have said of this point
is equally true of all the other farm
operations, except, perhaps, the
shredding of corn but if all the
farmers would cut their corn, travel
ing shredders would soon be at hand
to do the shredding. 1t will pay to
cut your corn, even though you never
get it shredded. 1t can be cut with
a feed cutter or with hatchet 80 as
to do quite well.
The trouble in nearly all of our
farms is that we are trying to farm
on too large scale we are trying
to go over too many acres to the
horse. We must do one of two
things-either cut down the acres, or
use more and better machinery. Let
the farmer who plows one horse
make up his mind to cut down to
fifteen acres, and cultivate it as it
should be done, rather than continue
to try thirty acres and cultivate that
as. il should not be done. Good,
thorough work pays.-Southern Gull

Farm Poultry Profitable.

There arc many reasons why poul-
try raising can be made profitable on
farm. One very important reason
is that all the food necessary to raise
chickens is grown on the farm, ready
for use. A great part of the living
of chicken can be picked up by
himself, especially is this true where
cattle are fed extensively. Much of
the chickens living is MADE from
things that would otherwise go to
waste. The insects that might be
very bothersome indeed serve for old
Biddy's relish. All farm animals, to
thrive well, need some shelter from
winters storms and summers heat.
This is one of the most expensive
items in the care of horses or dairy
animals, but with all kinds of poul-
try very small shelter will accom-
modate large number. Just along
the same line comes the thought of
enclosures. All other farm animals
have to be fenced in to keep them
home or in the right place at home,
while the poultry roam over the
whole farm.
Another great thing in favor of
poultry raising is the comparative
ease with which it can be done.
Think minute of the drudgery nee
essary in making pound of butter
for sale, and then compare that with
the labor required in marketing a
dozen eggs, which would give the
same returns. To be sure, there is a
time in the year when closest atten-
tion is needed to make a success of
raising poultry of any kind, but
when that time is over the market
ing of poultry or gathering in the
eggs is very easily done and requires
no great amount of time.
There must be some way of stop
ping the little leaks in the family
pocket book if farming is to be made
successful, and poultry and eggs to
take to town is just the right thing
to stop that leak. If the egg and
chicken money pays all the living
expenses, money from the sale of
other produce can be used to great
advantage somewhere else. Poultry
brings in returns all the time, every
week in the year, just as the family
need it. Many cases might be cited
where farmers wives have paid all
the living expense of large families,
simply by the poultry sales.
One of the greatest reasons why
poultry raising is profitable, on the
farm, is because the eggs and chick
ems help the farmers wife in prepar-
ing the meals. Nothing we can
raise on the farm is more valuable as
food than eggs. Nothing contributes
more to the farmers good appetite
than good fried chicken, in hot
weather, when other fresh meat can
not be obtained.-Extract from an
address Of Mrs. A. J. Pattrof at the
Kansas State Agricultural College.
