A Valuable Agent.

The glycerine employed in DR.. Pierce's
medicines greatly enhances the medi-
cinal properties which it extracts and
holds in solution much better than alco-
hol would. 1t also possesses medicinal
properties of it's own, being valuable
demulcent, nutritive, antiseptic and anti
ferment. 1t adds greatly to the efficacy
of the Black Cherry bark, Golden Seal
root, Stone root and Queens root, con-
tanned in uGolden Medical Discovery in
SSubduing chronic, or lingering coughs,
bronchial, throat and lung affections,
for all of which these agents are recon-
mended by standard medical authorities.
In all cases where there is wasting
away of flesh, loss of appetite, with
weak stomach, as in the early stages of
consumption, there can be no doubt that
glycerine acts as valuable nutritive and
aids the Golden Seal root, Stone root,
Queens root and Black Cherry bark in
promoting digestion and building up the
flesh and strength, controlling the cough
and bringing about healthy condition
of the whole system. OF course, 1t must
not be expected to work miracles. 1t will
not cure consumption except in its earlier
stages. 1t will cure very severe, obstin-
ate, chronic coughs, bronchial and laryn-
geal troubles, ard chronic sore throat
with hoarSeness. In acute coughs it is
not SO effective. It is in the lingering
coughs, or those of long standing, even
when accompanied by bleeding from
lungs, that it has performed its most
marvellous cures. Send for and read the

icinal roots that enter into DR.. Pierce's

Self-Supportfng Park.

Following the example of many
European cities, Los Angeles, Cal.
will turn Griffith Park, with an area
of 5000 acres of brush land, into a
commercial forest. Four experts, with
a view to converting this practically
waste piece of land into a productive
forest made comprehensive planting
place for the trees, which will not
only pay for its cultivation and care
through the sale of mature timber, but
will prove constant source of pleas
ure and recreation for the citizens of
Los Angeles. Los Angeles is the first
American city to adopt this plan, but
it is predicted that other municipali-
ties in this country will soon follow IN
it's footsteps.

Butter and Cheese occupat;on.


We wish again to call the attention
Of the people of the state to the liber.
al premiums being offered at the Mon.
tana State Fair for the best exhibits
of both creamery and dairy or farm
butter. If you have not received a
premium list. just send for one to Sec
rotary John w. Pace. Montana State
Fair. Helena. On page 81 class 2 will
be found the rules governing the but
ter and cheese division, and also a
list of the very liberal premiums of.
fered in this class. Now there are
some ~ or 10 creameries in opera
ton in Montana today and if 10 of
of the creamery boys enter the cream.
cry butter contest $4,000 will be
awarded as premium and it will be
divided according to what their but
ter scores. The butter scoring the
highest will receive the largest amount.
The butter scoring the lowest will re.
ce1ve the minimum amount. If less
than ten creameries enter the compe.
tition then only $4,000 will be award
ed as premium money. Now. it Is
up to all the creamery butter max.
ers to send in an exhibit so that they
may receive the $4,000 as premium
money.
The same thing is true in the farm
or dairy class. $4,000 will be award.
ed If there are more than five entries
and $500 will be awarded il less
than five entries. Now in this class,
as in the creamery class, the $4,000
will be divided according to what the
butter scores. Thus the person whose
butter scores 80 points will receive
10 times as much Of the premium
money as the person will whose but
ter only scores 80 points. but all those
whose butter scores over 80 points
will receive a proportionate share of
the premium money

Mine Ventilation at Butte.

One Of the most serious problems
that is claiming the attention of mine
owners in the Butte district at the
present time is that of ventilation in
the mines. How to get fresh air into
the lower workings and to keep it in
circulation is the discussion in min
ing circles and it is conceded by the
prominent mining men that the ques.
ton is grave one and the necessity
for a quick solution of the difficulty
an urgent one. It is a we'll known
fact that while the temperature on
the lower levels of the Butte mines is
rarely over 81 degrees, the atmosphere
Is heavy and the hot, moist air pro-
duces inertia and debility among the
miners because there is no ventilation
and the air hangs in masses, instead
OF circulating as it should in currents.
It Is claimed that the heat in the
lower workings of the big mines is not
due to the depth as is generally sup
posed, but in large measure to OK
1dat1on Of the timbers, as we'll as the
exposed minerals, says the Mining
World. An immense amount of tim.
Der is used in the Butte mines and
the timber gets hot spontaneously.
which naturally heats the air. In 9th.
er places where the mines are even
deeper than those of Butte, and where
the ground is firmer and requires less
tlmbering, the air is much cooler than
the air in the mines here. Another
cause for the high temperature is
thought to be the shifting of masses
OF earth and rock in the settling Of
the ground in the vicinity of the
Slopes. This causes a friction and in
turn produces heat. It has been sug-
gested that power-driven fans would
remedy this heat evil, but it seems to
be the general opinion of mining en-
gineers that fans would be of no ma.
terial benefit for, while causing the air
to circulate, the quality would not be
improved and dead air is about as
beneficial immovable as in circula.
ton. The fan system has been used
in other parts of the world, but has
never proved a success. The need is
fresh air in the lower workings of the
mines, and it is admitted that the most
practicable way to secure it is by
surface ventilation and by under
ground connections, which latter
method, while possible in some prop.
critics, could not be carried out in
many Of the mines because of the in
harmonious mining conditions exist.
Ing In Butte. BY an arrangement of
up-cast and down-cast shafts good
surface air could be drawn into the
lower workings, and this idea seems
to be general one among mining
men. for the improvement in the air
conditions in the mines. The ques-
ton is one that must be met sooner
or later, and the longer 1t is delayed
the greater the hardship for the min.
err. It is a recognized fact that be.
side being of benefit to the hard.work-
ing miner, fresh air would be an in
centive to greater effort and, as
consequence. the daily ore production
would increase.

the results are conclusive, although
they have not been made public. The

sion and continued the hole until its
completion Of $500 feet; 700 feet OF
size N rods, removing two-inch core,
were used. the remaining 1890 feet
being B, removing a TX inch core.
The total load of these rods vas be.
tween Is and Is tons, which was
| handled by the engine without diff.
Guilty. The actual running time of
this hole was IA months, or an av-
erage Of nearly 400 feet per month.
For the first two months two ten-hour
shifts were used, and for the balance
of the time the work was carried on
the whole "a hours, divided into three
eight hour shifts. The rods were pull.
ed in lengths Of so feet, the height
of the tubular steel derrick being sc
| feet over all. The time required to
lower the rods at a depth of 5000
feet was from three to three and half
hours, and from three and half to
four hours was required to lift them.
This record has since been bettered
byb a hole sunk near Springs, east
of johannesburg, by John Skenke.
This hole was begun on May 1. 1904,
and completed February 2, 1905, at
depth Of 5,5S2 feet. A size P drill
was also used here, power being sup
piled by a 30 h. p. boiler; 1000 feet
of E (two-inch core) rods were used,
the remainder of the equipment being
similar to that used by Tobin.
