- very careful about her churn. Sho

1T a sun bath to Sweetcn it. She knows
that if her churn is SOU 1t will faint tho
butter that is made In it. The stomach is
q churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesSes which are almost exactly like tho
churning OF butter. Is it not apparent
then that if this Stomach-churn is foul it
makes foul all which is put into it?
The evil of IL foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption Of
the pure current of blood and the diSsem-
NATION of disease throughout the body.
DIR. Pierce'S Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
1t does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn-abSOlutCly
removes every tainting or c%Orrupting ele-
ment. In this way it cures blOtchCS,
pimples, eruptiOns, scrofulOus ~Swellings,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
humOrS or diseases arising from bad blood.
If you have bitter, nasty, foul taste in
your mouth, coated tongue, foul breath,
are weak and easily tired, feel depressed
and respondent, have frequent headaches,
dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stOm-
ach, constipated or irregular bowels, sour
or bitter riSings after eating and poor
appetite, these symptoms, or any consider
able number of them, indicate that you arc

tanned tone Of strength drawn FROM the
assurance of great harvests and the
enormous aggregate Of forward work

of staple merchandise, and it is graft
flying that lower temperature has sue
ceeded the recent warm weather and
gives Il more s%eaSonable stimulus to re

Another influx of visiting buyers
adds to the activity in jobbing branch

dry goods, boots and shoes, clothing

Use of the largest fall trade ever Known
here is being realized.
While farm products brought larger
financial returns last year, one of the
salient features Of current operations is
the liberal expenditures of the agricul-
tural classes for neceSSarieS ms i'm

no diminution in the aggregate output,
and, though commitments for furnace
product and rails reach only moderate
proportions, the new demands make a

a steady absorption of structural

much use of funds for industrial pur-

are ease in mercantile collections and
moderate trading defaults, the latter

- Distributive trade is

irregularity to prevent broad generali-
cation. The close of September finds
the usual evidences of subsistence in
wholesale trade, but retail trade is bet

Cept at the South, where severe storms
have stopped cotton picking, checked
movement, and retarded collections.
Cereal crop reports are rather better,
.thraShing having been resumed in the
Northwest, where quality has been in
jured. Corn has definitely passed out
of the range of frost damage, and cut
ting of a record crop of fine quality is
now general.
Industry generally was never SO act
i've, and there is much complaint of
backward deliveries, particularly of
iron and steel and dry goods ordered
for fall ana winter delivery.
Car and engine shortages are a
PURGE of annoyance and tend to be-
come more acute as the movement of
the later crops is added to the already
heavy volume of general traffic offering.

The Direct Primary Election

The board of Chouteau county COM
missioners having found that petitions
with signatures largely in excess of
the necessary number had been pre-.
scented, requesting that an election be
called to decide upon the adoption or
rejection OF the direct primary law in
Chouteau county, decided to order
such election for Saturday, April I.
This is the date upon which the regu.
lar school trustee election will be held
in each district, and it was concluded
it would be a convenient date for
many of the voters.
The board has appointed the neces-
sary judges of election for each pre-.
cinct, and the other arrangements will
be made in due course.

Husbaudman: Louis Heitman, Of
White Sulphur Springs. and Charles
Lepley, OF Fort Benton, have recently
purchased the D. E. Folsom premises
on Smith river valley, amounting to
between ten and twenty thousand
acres. This ranch lies between Birch
creek and Woods gulch. BY this
purchase MIR. Hoffman makes it pos.
sible for him to travel from Birch
creek to Dorsey, a distance of twenty
miles or more without leaving his
own land. The purchase included the
flocks of Mr.. Folsom also. This puts
MIR. Heitman into the sheep business
again, he having sold out a year or
more ago and invested in cattle.
However, it is our opinion that cattle
raising will constitute the principal
OF the new firm, and We would
not be surprised if Mr.. Lepley changed
his residence from Fort Benton to
Montana's great health resort, White
Sulphur Springs.

Farmers Need the Water.

HELENA, March Elm the equity
suit brought by the United States
against Moses Anderson and 81 other
defendants. involving the right to the
waters of Milk river in the vicinity of
the Fort Belknap Indian agency, the
answer Of the defend ants was filed
yesterday in the federal court by
Walsh & Newman and Carpenter.
Day & Carpenter representing the de-
fend ants.
The suit was brought to restrain
the defendan from diverting the
waters of the river from the natural
channel because at the present time
the canals deprive the Indians of the
use Of the water.
1t is alleged in the answer that the
defendants have taken the water from
the river under the laws of the United
States and the state of Montana.
Further, that they have a priority
right ove the Indians, and also that
when the government placed the In
dians on the reservation, the right to
the waters of Milk river was rot re.
served to them. 1t is pointed out tina
the Indians can secure water for irri-
eating purposes from q number of
creeks OF the reservation, which are
enumerated in the answer.
The defendants declare that if they
are restrained from using the waters
OF Milk river, that thousands of acres
OF land will be rendered ~valuelese and
the approximate loss will be 800, 900.
There are nearly 100 persons that will
be affected if the case ia decided in
favor of the government.

Mining Deals Al Kendall.

LEw1sTOwN, March 7.-Although
the reports of q pending sale Of the
Kendall mine have been current for
weeks, they have never been taken
seriously here until now. Advices re.
ceived from Spokane, together with
what seems to be a change Of policy
on the part of the management, has
convinced the close observers here
that the control of the company has
either passed or IL almost ready to
pass into the hands of a new syndi.
cate, composed largely Of English
capitalists, who have been negotiating
for the property for some time.
1t Is known tina. the Kendall could
not be purchased for less than con-
siderably more than a million dollars.
The purchase by this company last
week OF the Stephens water rights for
$4,000. and the securing this week of
q large group Of additional claims is
looked upon as a change Of policy on
the part Of the Kendall aud many be.
lieve the deal has already been closed.
1t is also stated that negotiations
are on foot for the purchase of the
Barnes King by an outside syndicate,
and it is stated or pretty good au-
thority that this deal will be closed
by the end of June, If not earlier. The
property cannot be purchased for less
than a million and a quarter.
