Every Democrat must regret that

HEAD OF RECLAMATION SER
VICE WILL ADDRESS CONGRESS

+. IL. Newell, director of the United
States reclamation service, during a
recent visit to Billings, when he met
Secretary John t. Burns of the Dry
Farming congress, accepted an invita-
ton to attend the Fourth Dry Farming
Mont, October 1928, and to address
the congress on "The Relation Be
tween Dry Farming and Irrigation"
Director Newell said dry farming
offered a solution for some of the
problems which the reclamation service
is facing.
"Dry farming and irrigation should
go hand in hand said Mr.. Newell,
Gin the development of the west. They
are correlated, mutually supplemental
factors and not inimical rivals. One
of the complaints we hear from the
farmers under the projects of the re-
clamation service is that the govern
ment is not furnishing them with
enough water. We have gone into this
subject thoroughly and nave deter
mined the amount of water necessary
to irrigate a given tract of and from
premises of scientific soundness. The
fact is, that the farmers are inclined
to over-irrigation. One of the great
dangers of the settlers under these
projects is the danger of not only
wasteful, but positively damaging
over-irrigation. 1t is one of our most
difficult tasks to teach the farmer how
to use his water, now, to regulate his
irrigation to get the best results. The
application of dry farming methods of
cultivation will go a long way toward
helping to solve this problem. Scien-
tifc agriculture is necessary to get
the best crops in our western states
and | would like to have the princi-
pies of intelligent cultivation under
stood by every settler. Moisture con-
serving methods of tillage will effect
a great saving to the irrigationist in
water, as well as give him better crops
than he will get if he irrigates too
much or in a haphazard manner. This
is one of the subjects which should be
discussed at your congress. Dry farm
ing methods in combination with irri-
cation will hasten the development of
these great tracts which are being re-
claimed under the government pro-
~jects."

ENGLISH EDITOR ASKS FOR
NEWS OF MINING CONGRESS

From far-away England comes a re-
quest for information concerning the
American Mining congress. At the
new headquarters of the publicity
bureau, which is now in charge of AS
sistant Secretary Walter E. Koch, it
is believed that the request which in
cludes asking for all kinds of litera.
ture, means that it is likely that Great
Britain will be represented here. The
request comes from the Science and
Art of Mining, published at Wigan,
England. Copies of papers and ad-
dresses presented to the congress are
desired for distribution.
At the headquarters is is said that
more than 1000 delegates have al
ready been appointed from the differ
ent states, and allowing for attend
ance of the usual percentage, it is now
estimated co~nservatively that some
1900 may be expected to visit Gold

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an inflamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

THE NEW TARIFF COMMISSION

Acting under authority of the Payne
tariff bill, President Taft has appoint
ed a new tariff commission, consisting
of three members, as follows: Pro-
fessor Henry c. Emery, of Yale, chair
han; James B. Reynolds, of Massa
chusetts, now assistant secretary of
the treasury; Alvin H. Sanders, of Chi
cago, now editor and proprietor of the
Breeders Gazette.
While there has been considerable
controversy as to the scope of the
jurisdiction of the new commission, it
has been decided that it must c%onfine
its duties principally to applying the
maximum and minimum clauses to
nations which are unfriendly in their
tariff relations with the United States.
