the Montana clip at 4O,OOO,OOO

the biggest ever produced, and il
was caused by the depression last

bR|h6 IN I0UR SAMPLES Of GRAINS
Musselshell Valley Should Have One
Of the Best Displays in c., M.
c. st. P. Exhibit Car.

Only about ten days remain in
which to prepare and forward the
Musselshell valley display for the
exhibit car which the Chicago,
Milwaukee Il st. Paul will start out
on tour of the east the first of
next month, and it is desired that
all ranchers having any grains,
grasses or vegetables suitable for
exhibition purposes, bring them in
as soon as possible. 1t is expected
that the display will be forwarded
some time next week.
Last week subscription list was
circulated with the view Of raising
enough money to send out man
for several days to look after the
gathering Of the display, but it is
apparent that one man can not
cover the country as well as it is
desired to do, hence the appeal to
ranchers to take a hand in the
matter. About $40 was raised
which will be used in any way to
make the display complete one.

DRUGS IN THE HOUSE
Evils Of Careless Use Of Drugs in the House
hold.

The W. C. T. U. meeting on last
Thurday was one of special interest
to all present. DR.. R. P. Plimpton
read very carefully prepared paper
showing the evil effects of powerful
drugs as household remedies that is.
the indiscriminate use of such by each
and any member of the family for
real or imaginary aches and pains.
Many people are wrecked physically
or mentally by so doing and the doc
tor show ed very clearly that the
greatest care should be exercised in
this respect. A discussion followed
and many questions were brought up
for consideration. Another interest
ing feature of the meeting was a
talk by Mrs. Marcus Jones, who
was visiting in Denver at the time of
the national meeting of the w. c. T.
U. she gave a graphic description
of what she saw and heard while at
the convention and spoke of many
former Iowa women and two former
Denison women, who were active in
convention work. The convention
coming as it does next time to Omaha,
many of the Denison white ribboners
will undoubtedly attend.

describes man who, rummaging

his sanity mother softly singing
"Hush my dear. lie still and slum-

the mind of our townsman, w. W
Cushman, when during the holidays
he visited at the family homestead in
northern New York not far from Ma
lone. He was blessed, however, by
finding his mother still alive, and did
not have to recall her face in image
when on going up stairs he recog
nized the cradle in which he and his
six brothers had been rocked. and
saw the spinning wheel which when
