SMALL FARMS
ARE THE BEST

In the evolution and growth of
American farming, the small farm
has cen coming forward as a new
ideal. 1t is receiving recognition as
a new unit of social and business life
on the farm. The developments of
irrigation, more notably than any
other factor, has added to the spread
of the gospel of the small farm and
intensive cultivation. In the lrri-
gated sections new standards are be-
ing set in farming methods and in
country life. 1t is there that an
American ideal, the family owned
and family operated farm of moder-
ate size will attain high degree of
perte ction; it is there that the farm
homes are being provided with all
the comforts and many of the luxuries
of the present day civilization; it is
there also, that rural home life will
find it's fullest and truest expression;
hence, it is there that civilization
will attain it's full measure" using
the words of President Roosevelt.
Intensive cultivation, thorough APP
plication, careful, close and scienti-
fic farming are enjoined upon the
owners of these small farms almost
by necessity, and the results ale bet
ter farming, better social conditions,
greater earning capacity per acre of
farm and per individual worker,
shorter hours of labor, more time for
social enjoyment, more time for trav-
ell, ample means for home adorn-
ment, for home conveniences and
comforts. The small farm keeps the
boys and girls on the farm. Not
necessarily on the home farm, but,
let us state it more broadly; the small
farm keeps the boys aod girls identi-
fed with country life, because the
desire for good farm living has not
been smothered under the grind of
long work days and lack of social
pleasures, which are too frequently
the prevailing conditions on a large
farm.

SUNDAY MAGAZINE
is A BIG SUCCESS

Fer several years the newspaper
readers of the west have watched
with interest the unique experiment
embodied in the Sunday Magazine
of The Chicago Record Herald. The
time has now come when it is no
longer an experiment, but sound
and prospering success. Nothing else
of the kind in newspaperdom can
compare for moment with this re-
markable supplement-.
The Sunday Magazine of The Re
cord-Herald is real magazine, full
of stories and articles by the best
living writers, illustrated by eminent
artists and carrying on its cover each
week a masterpiece of color work.
Its prestige is now such that it can
compete with the big monthlies for
the most costly fiction in the market
sometimes paying as high as S25, 900
for single serial, as it did for Conan
Doyle's Sir Nigel" 1t captured
Anthony Hopes "Sophy of Kravo-
mia" when every other magazine in
the country wanted the story. The
most popular tales of humor now APP
pearing in the United States--those OF
the inimitable Shorty McCabe-- have
been published exclusively in the
Sunday Magazine of The Record
Herald from the start.
Its high literary quality has been
steadily maintained and has won
out. You will find one of the best
novels of the day running serially in
its columns at the present moment
1t is not strange that hundreds OF
thousands of readers prefer The Sun
day Record d-Herald to all other pa,
pers.

A WARNING
TO HORSEMEN
STATE REGISTRATION BOARD
is DOING GOOD WORK
FOR HORSE BREEDERS

The following letter from R. w.
Clark, Secretary of the Montana Stall
ion Registration Board. is self-ex-
pl anatory:
Bozeman, Montana, May IA, 'O9.
To The EDrroR:-
The work of the Stallion Registra-
tion Board has begun and it is being
found that some stations that were
thought to be pure bred are not, but
are only on bogus certificates of reg
istration. There are at the present
time, unscrupulous stallion salesman
from other states in Montana, selling
horses on bogus certificates al the
public is warned. Every stallion
purchased should be licensed before
the deal is made and then there
will be no question about the horse
being able to fill the requirements
of the law. There are honest men
in Montana who are offering stations
for sale and they deserve support,
but as they can not often be distin-
quished from the unscrupulous class,
it is advisable and urged that no
stallion be offered for sale without a
, service license. A license is an en-
dorse mcnt of the horse and will help
sell him.
The work of the Stallion Regis
tration Board is revealing the fact
that the stallion swinIle is one of
the worst that has struck Montana.
The mare owner should insist that
a copy of the license be kept posted,
where he may see it as provided by
law. A stallion owner who refuses
to take out license in most cases,
if not all, has horse with which
there is something wrong, he lay be
a scrub or a bogus certificate of reg.
istration and worthless as a breeder,
or he may possess certain hereditary
unsoundness. that is desired to be
kept from the mare owner, because
it lowers or destroys his value as
breeder If stallion is what is
claimed for him in breeding
and soundness. a license is many
times of more value than its cost,
but if such horse has no license,
then the fact may be that there is
something wrong with him.
The writer knows of most valua-
bic mares, nearly pure bred Percher-
one, that were bred to a scrub stall
lion, because the stallion was of Il
bogus certificate oil registration and
thought to be pure bred. If Mon
tana is to improve the quality of its
horses, the mare owner should know
what he is reeding to and should
insist on Il copy of the stallion $ Ii
cense being kept posted where he
can see it. The license gives the
breeding Of the horse and any hered-
itary unsoundness that he may pos
SesS and that may be transmitted to
the colt
If a copy of the license is not kept
post ed on the main door of every
stable or building, wi ere the stallion
or jack stands, the service fee can
not be collected and the stallion
owner cen be punished as provided
by law.
Yours truly.

CATTLE ARE
INCREASING
RANGE HAS DECREASED BUT
STOCK HAS INCREASED
IN QUANTITY

Is the cattle industry growing!
In a recent issue the Fort Benton
River Press opposes the idea that the
cattle industry in the state of Mon
tana is on the wane and expresses it.
self as follows:
THE recent meeting of eastern
Montana cattlemen at M lilies City and
that held by the members of the
North Montana Roundup association
at Havre on May 7th, are reminders
that the Montana cattle industry is
still an important source of wealth
to the state. 1t has undergone inn
portant changes within the past few
years but it has become established
upon firm and permanent founda-
ton that insures it's continuance as
one of the principal industries in the
state.
THE Montana Stockgrowers' asso-
citation, composed principally Of cat
tlemen residing in the eastern part
of the state, has been in existence
about thirty years. The North
Montana Roundup association was
organized about fourteen years ago,
it's object being the promotion of the
interests of stockmen in the northern
counties md that purpose has been
accomplished to the satisfaction Of
all parties concerned During the
existence of these two organizations,
the range system of conducting the
cattle business has been greatly
modified, the occupation of the pub
lie domain by settlers and others re-
ducing the area of range formerly at
the disposal of the stockmen and sew
eral of the larger outfits have reduced
their holdings or retired fro bust
ness.
Under the changed conditions,
however, the Montana cattle indus
try is progressing and apparently
yields a good margin ofproft to those
engaged in the business. The num-
Der of stockmen is increasing but
their individual holdings are not so
large as in the open range times OF
twenty and thirty years ago. Sew
eral of the big outfits that formerly
shipped beef to Chicago bv the train
load have quit the game, but the
Montana beef crop is being maintain
ed by numerous smaller outfits that
ship only few carloads each season,
the aggregate amounting to about as
large beef supply as in former
years.
Notwithstanding the general be-
lief that the Montana cattle industry
has been on the decline in recent
years, owing to the restriction of the
range, the reports made to the coun-
ty assessors furnish proof to the con-
trary. The number of cattle listed
for taxation now exceeds 100000
head, with a value of between $13,-
900, ,OOO--an exhibit which indicates
the confidence of Montana stockmen
in the continued prosperity of their
industry"

This is one of the best propositions
ever undertaken by the Malta Com
mercial Club and The ENTERPRISE
is of the opinion that untold good will
result to the town, to the residents,
and to the property owners.
The matter of the city celebrating
the Fourth of July was also brought
up and a committee Of fthree-Me
Murray, Merchant and Reichel were
appointed to interview the citizens
in regard to a celebration of our ma
tional holiday. The committee will
report the matter in plenty of time to
give the people an opportunity to make
other arrangements if the citizens
in Malta do not desire to celebrate.

Charlottesville. Va. Oct. 9.-The annual
game between Virginia and St. Johns.
which was won by Virginia, u 20 0, was
as usual a stubbornly fought contest.
The St Johns players put up the battle
Of their lives and stopped Virglnia's star
back field repeatedly. Attempted end
runs were frequently nipped in the bud
by the superb tackling of Brown. Bosley
and Johnson.
Virginla's first touchdown came at the
middle Of the first half Stanton's punt
was fumbled by a cadet and Geyer
bounced upon the ball on St Johns 20
yard line Successive line plunges by
Capt. Yancey and Holiday soon netted a
touchdown. Yancey kicked the goal AZ
ter eleven minutes OF play in the second
period Stanton was pushed through St.
Johns left tackle for Virginia's final
touchdown. and Yancey converted It into
a goal
Near the end OF the half GOoch gath
cred in a fumbled forward pass and
sprinted so yards for a touchdown, but
was called back as Referee Melvin said
that he stepped outside the gridiron.
Holiday and Gooch were Virginia s
most consistent ground gamers on end
runs. while Capt. Yancey and Stanton
made good Roadway through the visiting
line. st. Johns made FIRST down only
once in the first half and in the second
half gained 10 yards on forward pass.
