All the available rigs were at once

FUNERAL OF MRS. WALKER.
Rev. n. e. Robbins Conducts the Fun.
erai Services at Helena.

GRAZ oSTStCSS al HcieHd.
Helena, Aug. 21.-Large numbers
of loving relatives and friends of the
late Mrs. Harry L. Walker gathered
at the residence. PA Sixth avenue,
yesterday forenoon at IL o'clock to
pay the last tribute of respect to the
dead, who had been removed from
this life last Monday. The funeral
services were conducted by Rev. Fl.
e. Robbins, rector of the Episcopal
church of Fort Benton, who about
one year ago officiated at the mar
rage of the young woman whose life
has just gone out. The minister paid
a tribute to the personal character of
the dead. 1t has often been said that
there is nothing that will assuage
grief on occasions such as this, but
he believed that the example Of 4
Christian life afforded some consola-
ton in the hope of an eternal life
and a subsequent reunion.
At the close of the funeral services
the casket was borne to the hearse
by the pall-bearers-Charles B. Pow
err, N. B. Hotter, Z. W. Prosser. Oscar
Bullard, Charles Word and ID. p.
Patenaude-and the cortege moved to
Forestvale cemetery, where the body
was committed to it's last resting
place.
Many and beautiful were the floral
tributes sent by friends Of the dead.
A number OF Helena ladies sent a
blanket of sweet peas that completely
covered the casket. Other emblems
were from Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Duer

A good Investment.

II is today easier to get a mining
property that will pay from rs to so
per cent than to get hold Of an ordi.
nary business investment that will
pay a sure SO per cent. And in the
investment that pays so per cent the
investors or dividend receivers have
to go down into the pockets of other
men to get it-not in any wrong or
dishonest way: they doubtless give
and get full value, but, yet, the trans.
action is only a swap. The money
taken from the ground is as much of
a creation, SO far as new money 10
concerned, as was the earth itself
when II was created. The money SO
produced is an addition to the wealth
OF the world and helps not only him
who produces, but him who receives
1t, and helps. too. every other indus

ports five people on the surface, and
the bullion he produces is forever

Ladle and Process Rutters HIT.

Ladle ana Process Rutters Hit
Ladle goods and process butter have
been both severely hit by the amend
ments the United States Senate has
tackled onto the oleomargarine bill.
Under this Senate amendment what is
known as "adulterated butter" is de-
lined to be grade of butter produced
py mixing, reworking, returning in
milk or cream, refining or in any way
producing a uniform purified or i'm
proved product from different lots or
parcels OF melted or unmelted butter in
Whlch any acid, allzali, chemical or any
substance whatever is introduced or
used for the purpose or with the effect
OF deordorlzing or removing therefrom
rancldlty, or any butter with which
there is mixed any substance foreign
to" butter with intent or effect Of cheap
enlng IN cost of product in any way.
we are not certain that this amend
ment did not come from the cleo peo-
pie. Some of them at least have be-
lleVed that the funds to carry on the
light against colored oleo have come
from the manufacturers of process but
ter, VINO might reasonably expect to
profit by the passage Of the bill. How
ever, there is no good reason why
process butter should not be placed un-
der federal rules as we'll as oleomar-
garine. 1t is perhaps little hard on
ladle goods, which are often made from
good grades, and are reworked to get
uniformity of color and sailing.

Plymouth Rocks,

From Farmers Review: I have in
years past bred number of different
kinds of poultry, and have selected thu
White Plymouth Rocks as an exclu-
sive breed, from the fact that thei1
uniformity in size and color makes
them as flock present handsome,
appearance than can be obtained from
any parti colored birds. AS egg pro
ducers I consider they stand second
to none. They are not strongly in.
clined to be broody, as is the case with
the Asiatiac breeds, yet make the best
of mothers, from utility standpoint
being one pound heavier than the
Wyandottes. I consider them thei1
leaders. For the table their plum1
form and rich yellow skin, free from
dark pin-feathers, make them a. mar
ket fowl superior to all. 1 conside.

breeds, the general purpose fowl, the

Hand-SeparatOr Butter.

r. W. Curtis: Does butter made
from hand-separator cream have the
quality? Usually I would say "Yes,"
but under present conditions, occasion
ally, NO. 1t seems impossible under
ordinary conditions to make as high a
grade OF butter from farm hand-separa-
tor cream as from cream separated at
the skimming station. This statement
is rather broad, but I believe any
crea1heryman who has handled any
quantity of hand-separator cream
through several summers will bear me
out in this statement. The creamery
mans inability to get the farmer to
handle his cream in such a manner
that it will arrive at the creamery
sweet, seems to be the cause Of the
trouble, and really the farmer is paid
just as much for poor cream, at most
OF the factories, las he would receive
