REMARKABLE WHEAT YIELD
A Volunteer Crop Sown Two Years Ago
That Will Make Big Yield This Year.

Nathaniel DanielsOn came in from
Garneill Friday to do some trading.
In reply to the query rs to his crops
this year, he answered that he didn't
expect much of wheat crop as it was
Il volunteer crop, but his neiyhbors
believed he would get 20 bushels to
the acre. Asked as to what he meant
by volunteer" crop, Mr.. Danielson
told the following remarkable expert
encp: In 1907 he had ~ acres of
wheat in that was Over-ripe when cut
and the grain shelled considerably.
The next spring he put the land into
oats ana secured 4 good crop. In the
fall he noticed volunteer crop grow
ing, and believing it to be oats did
not pay much attention to it. This
spring the crop came up green and
fresh and he knew then it was wheat.
He narrowed it after rains, as lie
would any fall wheat, and now he has
fine stand, that he, and everybody
who has seen it, believes will 60 ~
bushels. to the acre. Mr.. Daniplson
is willing to make oath as to the facts
related here, and says he can get
several affidavits OF neighbors who
are familiar with these facts. His
farm is about three miles due north
Of Garnell. He says if there is any
other soil on earth that will do stunt
like this. he has never heard Of it.

IMPORTANT CUTOFF BY &. n.
Grade Between Great Fall and Belt Will Be
Reduced as Result.

Announcement was made recently
by the Great Falls Great Northern
officers that bids for Il 81 1,OOO, 900 con-
tract for the cutoff between Great
Falls and Belt, on the Billings Il
Northern line, would be opened in
st. Paul Aug. 20, and that work on
the construction of the cutoff would
begin as soon as the preliminaries
could be arranged and the equipment
shipped here. 1t is expected that the
cutoff will be finished in about nine
months. The contract will include
the construction OF about Is miles of
new road and the boring Of tunnel
a quarter of mile long through Belt
hill. The purpose of the cutoff is to
reduce the grade between Great Falls
and Belt. The large amount Of freight
traffic over the Burlington line be-
tween Kansas city and Seattle has
made easy grades an important factor
in operating the line. The pull M
Belt hill is one OF the heaviest grades
on the entire run of the Burlington
trains. While the exact amount of
the contract cannot he stated before
the contract is awarded, it is estimated
that the cost of the cutoff will be in
the neighb0rhood of 81 900 900.
Plans for the new passenger station
at Great Falls are completed and it is
expected that bids for the cOnstruc-
tion Of the building will be called for

MEAT MARKET AT HEDGES

The Judith Gap Meat Company Will Open a
Market There The 18th Of September.
Oscar Skeen, representing the Jud-
ith Gap Meat company, went to Hedges
Tuesday to look over the field for
opening a branch market. Mr.. Skeen
was most favorably impressed with
the existing conditions in that thriv-
ing burg and vicinity, and reports
that he and his partner, j. IL. Schiller,
will open Il market there about the
middle OF September. The company
is and has been for some time shipping
considerable meat to that point, and
the trade has so increased that it has
become necessary to open Il branch
office in order to properly take care
of the trade.
\ centrally located lot has been
purchased and arrangements are be-
ing made to erect the building in the
near future. Mr.. Skeen will untloubt-
edly divide his time between this
point and Hedges after the market is
open.

The hail storm which travelled
through the Basin Wednesday after
noon dld considerable damage. The
hail fell in Moore to a depth OF three
inches and the stones were as large as
hens eggs, but the damage done to
farms in that community will not
cover over dozen farms. At Lewis
town the windows and roofing of the
First National bank were destroyed,
and the windows in the court house,
Masonic temple, Wasmanstlortf' s and
Hedges home were shattered. No

THE PHANTOM ARMY.

And | saw phantom army come,
With never a sound OF fife or drum
But keeping step to mutiled hum
OF Wailing lamentatiOn-
The martyred heroes of Malvern lIl
OF Gettysburg and Charlottesville.
The men whose wasted bodies fill
The patriot graves of the nation.
And there came the unknown dead, the men
Who died in fever swamp and fen,
The slowly starved of PRISON pen.
And marching beside the others
Came the dusky martyrs of Pillows fight,
With limbs enfranchised and bearing bright.
l thought-'twas the pale moonlight
They looked as white as their brothers.
And so all night marched the nations dead,
With never banner above them spread
No sign save the bare, uncovered head
Of their silent grim Reviewer
With never an arch but the vauted sky,
With not flower save those which die
On distant graves, for love could buy
No gift that was proper or truer,
So all night long moved the strange array;
So all night long till the break of day
| watched for one who had passed away,
With reverent awe and wonder
Till blue cap waved in the lengthening line,
And knew that one who was kin of mine
Had come, and l spoke-and, 10, that sign
Weakened me from my sumber!

THE VETERANS.

Every year they're marching slower
Every year they're STOPPING lower;
Every year the lifting music stirs the hearts of
older men:
Every year the flags above them
Seem to bend and bless and love then
AS if greving for the future when they'll never
march again.
Every year that day draws nearer:
Every year the truth is clearer
That the men who saved the nation from the
severing fatal sword.
Soon must pass away forever
From the scene of their endeavor
Soon must answer to the roll call OF the angel
of the Lord.
Every year with dwndng number,
Loyal still to those that slumber.
Forth they march to where already many have
found peace at last
And they place the farest blossoms
Ger the silent, mold ring bosoms
OF the valiant friends and comrades of the bat
ties of the past.
Every year grow DINNER duller,
Tattered flag and faded color
Every year the hands that bear them find a
harder task to do,
And the eyes that only frightened
When the blaze of battle lightened
Like the tattered flags they follow are grown
dim and faded too.
Every year we see them massing,
Every year we watch them passing
Scarcely pausing lin hurry after pleasure,
after gain
But the battle-tlags above them
Seem to bend and bless and love them,
And through all the lifting music sounds an
undertOne of pain.

OBSERVANCE OF MEMORIAL DAY

May MemoriaI-day never lose its true signif-
canoe May it ever be cherished and observed
by the American people as tribute to its honor
ed patriots, its grand army of citizen soldiery.
1t will be SO held by future generations long af-
ter the last remnant of the American volunteers
who fought for the Union are numbered in the
world beyond Flowers will be laid upon the
sacred mounds, flags will be unfured and the
civil war and the sacrifices of the men and wo-
men of 81 to 65 will remain the greatest object
lesson of patriotism in American history. In
America we have the ctizen-soldier-p patriot,
turning from the pow and the shop to follow the
flag, fighting for that flag and country and home,
and after victory resuming the avocations of
peace.

A DAY OF PATRIOTISM.

Memorial day is not only the festival of heroes,
but festival of patriotism as we'll. Coming
earlier than the Fourth of July, it takes the

of the institutions for which he fought.

Best Men and Best Roads.

There is little likelihood that
the bill known as the Stuart State
Highway bill which passed the
House finally on Monday night
will meet serious opposition in
the Senate.
The value Of such an improve
ment as this bill contemplates-
the construction of a fine, broad,
durable highway across the State
from Philadelphia by way of Har.
risburg and Pittsburg to the
Ohio State line--is beyond calcu
latlon.
1t will not be, as some of the
opponents of the bill have claim
ed, merely a road for through
travel or for the benefit of motor
lists. 1t will be really the starter
of a great systematic plan of road
Improvement throughout the
State to he intersected by fine
local highways In every county
through which 1t passes.
But simultaneously with the
enactment of this bill should be
another to increase the salaries
of the head of the Highway De-
partment and his principal as
sistant to such figures that the
State could com mand in those DO
sltions the services OF men IN ev-
cry way fitted to discharge the
duties. Further, 1t should be un
derstood that there shall be a
complete and thorough reorganl.
zation of the Highway Depart
ment, putting it IN the hands OF
men as well fitted for their duty
by ability, knowledge. and exper
ience as the men are who are en-
trusted with the construction and
operation of great railroads.
Experience has shown that un
less there is such a reorganization
of the State Highway Department
a large percentage of the money
voted for good roads will be vast
ed in the future as 1T has been in
the past.-Harrisburg Patriot.

Care OF the Hair.

There are many simple pre-
cautions that may be taken by
the person who is troubled with
dandruff IN the hair.
FIRST, brush the hair out thor.
oughly and carefully at least once
a day.
Do not use a stiff brush.
Avoid also comb with sharp
teeth.
When the hair is shampooed be
very sure that all the soap is
washed out.
Do not sleep with halrpins IN
your hair. 1t is best to braid the
hair softly for the night.
If the dandruff still persists
after the shampoo try rubbing.
white vasellne into the roots. Do
not use enough to make the hair
greasy. A bit no bigger than the
end of the finger will be enough
for the whole head.
