SIGN BEET SUGAR CONTRACTS.

Over in Colorado last year there was
agitation among the sugar beet rails
ers. The farmers were advised to
sign contracts. Some of them put il
off until March-others in May. When
they appeared ready to sign up they
ascertained that the mills had con,
tracted their capacity-and they had
to raise something else.
The farmers of this section should
lose no time in signing up for the
coming year.
Not until that is done can the local
mill make it's calculations for the next
$ After the estimates are made,
and the machinery ordered it will not
be possible for the company to take a
further supply Of beets, and the man
who neglects will be the only sufferer.
A greater acreage of beets will be
grown in 1909 than ever before in the
history OF Montana.
The man who signs up now has
every advantage owe the party who
delays, for he may contract also for
his labor and have the pick of the
market.

TIL. sattpet.r Man..

The saltpeter man Of the first half of
the seventeenth century was hated
even more. if that be possible, than the
window pepper OF those more recent
days when light was subject to heavy
taxation. Before the importation of
saltpeter from abroad as an important
ingredient in the manufacture Of gun
powder it was a crown monopoly, and
agents. popularity known as saltpeter
men. We're sent all over the country 10
seek for it in stables. pigeon cots. pig
sites and indeed in almost all other
places the soil Of which was supposed
to be impregnated with animal matter.
The injury these men did and the irri-
tation they caused by digging up floors
and pulling down fences were great.
No householder was free from their
visits. which were rendered especially
odious from their being empowered to
Impress carts and horses for the pur.
pose OF carrying away the mineral and
the utensils employed in its manufac-
ture. This calling domestic tyranny
though. of course. not to be compared
with things Of far greater moment
was no doubt one Of the factors in the
national irritation which made the civil
war possible. The monopoly was put
an end to BY parliament in 165G.-Lon-
don Athenaeum.

PROSPEROUS SEASON FOR WOOL.


Montana fockmasters see the signs
of the times written In the future.
From all sides comes the news OF
mills resuming, and the result has
been a demand, thus early, for more
wool.
Trade journals and those closely
identified with the wool interests all
unite in the agreement that we are
to have 20 cent market during 1909.
Coupled with the movement to ere
ate a storage warehouse in Chicago,
this becomes doubly significant.
That the wool men of this state are
about to enjoy n of the greatest sea
SOL of prosperity ever known is evil
dent. =
This all hinges on the fact that the
protective tariff remains on woodland
as there is a Republican government
at Washington, there may be no fear
on that score
Twenty cent wool is what the doc
tor ordered, and the sheepmen of
the Treasure state will not be satis-
fed with any other prescription.

Love Potions In the Middle Aaa..

In a lecture delivered before the AS
ISOLATION of Surgeons Of Munich by
Professor Klein on the subject of mar
cotics the speaker said that the process
OF reducing the sensibilities Of patients
with a view to making operations
painless was known and practiced in
the middle ages. The narcotic was
known then as a ''love potion" and
recipes for compromising it have
come to us from u ancestors. Pro.
lessor Klein said that the story of
Christian und Isolde" showed that the
love potion was only a narcotic. Bish-
op Theodorus of Chervira wrote a pre-
scription for a pain destroyer in the
twelfth century which contained OPT
um, morphine and hyascum. A med
ical work printed in 1860 contains the
first known treatise on Inhalation. and
we now inject under the skin the
soothing mixture which in 146O was
inhaled. A love potion prescribed in
l497 by Hieronymus Of Br~aunschweig
contained opium and a number Of use
less ingredients. Many Of the mixtures
known as love potions were lost In the
course of the Thirty Years war and
were rediscovered later to serve again
in the field Of science.

greatly to the value and usefulness
OF the forests.
The work completed during the
year includes 3,40O miles of trails,
300 miles Of telephone line, 100 miles
of wagon road, 40 miles OF fire line.
$50 bridges, $50 cabins and barns, and
600 miles of pasture and drift fences.
In addition to the sum provided by the
special-improvement fund, over $780,
900 from the general fund Of the SER
vice was turned from current ex-
penses to defray the cost Of this work.
but much Of the work planned and ur-
gently needed could not be carried
out because there was nothing with
which to pay for it.
Detailed estimates covering a total
of $2,000,000 for permanent improve
ments, which it was desired to COM
plete in 1909, were submitted to con
gress. They showed for the entire
amount exactly what it was proposed
nl VI8 N -I EH4 '~Et
to undertake on each national forest,
and at what cost. The amount pro-
vided by the appropriation was $780,
900. For 1910 estimates will again be
submitted for permanent improve
ments, the cost of which will aggre-
gate 1914, 981. These estimates are
the result of specific and fully item
lied plans. which are on file in the
forest service. They are in no sense
a request for a lump sum, the spend
ing of which remains to be planned
in detail after appropriation is made.
1t is of urgent Importance that this
work should be provided for.
Though the construction of per-
manent improvements entails the
need of. provision for their mainten-
ance, the added efficiency of the for
ests as economic secured
repay the cost. With the national
forests as with any other resources,
their returns depend upon the ex-
tent to which development takes place
through judicious OUTLAWS Of capital.

structive expenditures"

MONTANA'S INTEREST IN
NATIONAL fOREjI IMPROVEMENTS

WASHINGTON, Dec, 22.-Montana
has a natural interest in that part Of
the report OF the secretary Of agri-
culture which is devoted to perman-
ent improvements on the govern
ment's national forests. Such work
as the construction of miles of trail
pasture fences, ranger houses and
and roads, telephone lines, drift and
barns has opened up and improved
many square miles of territory in the
eighteen national forests in the state.
and for these similar s94.-
1902 was spent during the last ifs
cal year, ending June 80, 1908.
-Four hundred twenty-five and one
half miles of trail and forty-five and
one-half miles of road were built, four
hundred and t~hirtyysix miles of tele-
phone line We're strung, and the for
est ranges were improved by the con-
%struction of fifty-one and one-half
miles of pasture fence. During the
year, tfty-three houses to be used for
ranger quarters, and %thirty-two barns
for rangers horses were built, sever
portation, Well-located field quarters.
miscellaneous improvements were
made. Many additional improvements
are planned. In speaking of the per-
manent improvement on all the nation
al forests, the secretary of agriculture
has the following to say in his an
nual report:
The agricultural appropriation
act OF 1908 included an item of $780,
600, which was made available for
permanent improvement work on the
national forests. The object of this
work is to help open UP the forests
to use and to provide means
for their better and more economical
protection, through the supply Of
means and communication and trans
portation, well-located field quarters,
fire lines, fences to assist in the hand
ling Of stock, and watering places.
These improvements are essentially
of capital, which add

EXIT CASTRO.

Cipriano Castro, by the grace OF II
blind conscience and brutal instinct,
president of Venezuela, has been de
posed.
He rode into. power on the triumph
ant wave Of revolution. His footsteps
from his home to the Yellow House
We're marked by prints of blood. He
held his by the might of the
sword. He played fast and loose with
the powers of the world, secure always
in the thought that If the worst came
he had but to leave the country to the
tender mercies of some foreign nation,
whose honor he had sullied and whose
courtesy he had %blackened.
Under his rule the commerce of the
country was ruined.
Honor was a stranger to him.
Unlike most men who rise suddenly,
he possessed a subtle power Of fencing
with his superiors, throwing the re-
sponsibility for his acts upon the gov
u AAAAACAL anu SClA4A6 cNcly OtpOI
tunity to outrage others that he might
gain. .-
Monopolies that returned millions
We're controlled by him-principally
the lottery that has proven such a
drain on the people of the land, while
he played with the finances Of his
country with an abandon that was
startling.
But with the arrival Of the Dutch
warships all this came to end and
shrewdly calculating his time, he de-
parted from the country before the
first ship from The Netherlands was
sighted off the Venezuelan coast.
Venezuela has had the experience,
Castro has profited, and out of it all
it is to be hoped that a stable govern
ment will be organized that will for
w put an end to the questionable
practices that have been employed by
this licensed bandit, against whom the
populace has turned, and who is ac-
cused of engaging in a conspiracy to
~assassinate the man in whose charge
he left the government he had looted.

joyable employment.
In this bill, in whjsh Helena is des-
ignated as the center Of the eastern
district" fguratively speaking. some
wonderful things are worked out. Pro-
vision is made for holding court twice
a year In Billings, also in. one or two
other places.
This scheme of bringing the court
TO us twice a year is 70 assuage our
wounded feelings, and is an admission
at the outset that the western part
Of the state is getting more than it de-
serves and the eastern part moi as
much as it should have.
With all due respect to the efforts
that are being made, we fail to see
where eastern Montana is benefited.
The court might just as we'll be
moved further west, or, to fit in with
the divine system of congressional

tricts, two of Them in Butte and one
In Helena-or four, with two in Butte
and one each in Helena and Missoula.
And the eastern part of the state?
Well, if we fail to appreciate it,
we could take a long run and jump
into the Yellowstone some fine large
morning when the slush ice is run
ming, and the people of Miles City
r lining both banks of the stream
armed with large hickory sticks, bent
on whacking the man from Billings
because the Colorado & Southern rec
ognizes a good thing, which congress
Is endeavoring to overlook.
One may gather from the above
that we are nursing a bunch of ex-
ceedingly sour grapes.
Such, however, is not the case. We
are simply fighting mad.
What is more to the point, we have
,Lly just begun to fight.

BLOWING BUBBLES.
Use a Paper Gone and Make Them
E;xA EaA$ ~ r:~n~f->ue

Use a Paper Gone n Make Then
Five Feet IN circumference.
Bubble blowing is an Amusement
that all Of us enjoyed in our early
days. 1t was IL diversion that was gooG
for both indoors and out OF doors. bu,
there is more real enjoyment when yo,
make scientific preparation for thu
blowing, for there is a science in blow
ing bubbles.
The best thing SO far discovered FOL
the blowing is a paper cornucopia, ant
with 1t bubbles can lie blown which
will measure three. four. or even five
feet in circumference. provided the
right kind of solution is used. AL
sorts Of tricks Fan then be done. such
as displaying a bubble with a bouquet
or a spinning top inside Of It. Some
persons have become SO expert thai
they can place three or four bubbles
inside one another. Frightening the ef
feet very much by filling the small
bubble in the lite with tobacco
smoke. Blowing q pin wheel around
inside of i bubble always elicits q
great deal Of applause from the on
lockers. .
The solution that you use is, Of
course, very important. Ordinary wa.
ter and soap do not possess the elastic.
ity for making big bubbles. The best
solution found SO far is made by fill.
Ing a quart bottle half full of distilled
or soft water. Sift into it four-tifths
of an ounce of CASTLE soap powder and
allow it to dissolve, Then add a third
of a pint Of pure glycerin. The bottle
Of liquid should be placed in a room
where the temperature is about 20 de
grees. When blowing the bubbles the
room should have a temperature OF
from IS to 10 degrees. Pour some Of
the solution into a vessel large enough
pia and let it be free of froth or little
bubbles. as these are disastrous tc
blowing large bubbles. Dip the wide
end of the horn into the liquid and
then turn it slowly at right angles
while you take it away. If there is a
film on the opening, you are ready to
blow: if not, dip again. Blow gently
through the small end, move the horn
quickly to one side, and 1t will be free
to float IN the air. Some blowers be.
come so dexterous that they can pro.
duce a large bubble filed with smoke
and then divide it into two bubbles
with a fan without letting the smoke
escape Great fun can be had by toss
ing the bubbles back and forth with
felt hats. as they do not burst them.
A bubble may be tossed back and forth
as many As 100 times IL a little care is
taken.
1t is interesting to place some Of the
solution in a frying pan, heat it a lit
tie and then blow a bubble in the CEN
ter of the pan. The bubble will not
burst, and in a few minutes the liquid
within the bubble will begin to boil.
Dip the mouth Of a goblet into the So
luton and then remove it with the
opening covered with a film. On this
film blow a bubble with the cornuco-
pia until a large one is balanced Oh
top Of the glass: then carefully remove
the horn, and you will gain a truly adj
mirable Observation-Disclosures.

WARNING TO THE HOME HUNT.
Frs.

William E. Curtis has issued a note
of warning to the land hungry people
who are rushing into the strictly arid
sections of the west in response to the
hued letters of promoters, who
are using the argument that rain fol
lows the pillow.
The point Mr.. Curtis makes, is. that
the intending settler should select the
irrigated sections, and not depend en-
tirely on rainfall in a country which
has been known for the past twenty
decades as the Great American desert.
There is plenty of land, and for all,
across which, with aid of irrigation,
water may flow.
1t is not difficult to ascertain the
location of the irrigated districts. With
this fact well established he is simply
inviting failure who goes out on the
prairie, where the railroads have failed
to develop water sources and where a
supply for the locomotive is carried in
tank cars.
If any mar lacks the common sense
to look before he leaps, he has only
himself to blame at the time the mort
gage is foreclosed.
There is plenty of land in the west,
with water and to spare, under both
private and public bitches, and this
being the case the man who is willing
to throw away his money and his time
on desert ground should be taken in
charge by his friends.
