These are the direct advantages to the
farmer of protection. The indirect ad-
vantages arise from the fact that EN-
ployes of our protected industries are
the great consuming masses, and there
fore the best buyers of the butter, eggs,
cheese, beef, pork, -four and meal,
and other necessities of life which find
their origin on the farm.
Representatives Of the cotton growers
of the South have recently demanded
that they be protected by a tariff from
the competition of cotton growers Of
Egypt and India. So all over the land
the American producer, whether on the
farm or in the factory, is working for a
continuance and extension of the policy
of protection, under which this country
has eclpsed all others in the prosperity
of its working masses. -Leslie's Weekly.
And in Michigan farmers are signing
petitions asking to have the tariff re-
tanned on beans, sugar beets and other
farm products grown in this state, yet
the tariff reformer is abroad in the land
demanding that the duty be taken off
of farm products as well as many lines
of manufactured goods. Surely the
members of the ways and means COM
mittee are having their troubles these
days and they will be greatly multiplied
if they listen to the words of those who
would pull down the system of protec-
ton under which this country has pros
pered.

The people of this state and country

In the performance of this loving
service they will benefit themselves by
learning anew the lesson of this great

Never Said IL.

Judge K. s. Scarf, we'll known in
this county where he formerly lived,
takes strong exceptions to state
ment which has been floating about
the state to the affect that Gratiot
county was in close financial straits
because Of the adoption of local op-
ton. In the following letter to the
St Johns Republican, Judge Scarf
not only denies having made any
such statement but endorses local
option in an emphatic manner. He
says:
Ithaca, Mich, Jan. 25, 1909.
Editor Republican: Dear Sir
several papers last week, (Lansing
and Detroit) published a purported
interview with me, in which I was
reported as saying that Gratiot
county was busted" and that the
trouble was all due to local option.
This purported interview was a
fake, pure and simple, and you are
at liberty to brand it so, if you de-
sire to do so, or think it best to re-
move any wrong impressions which
might come from it. I do not care
personally, but it might be used to
defeat local option in other counties.
In my Judgment we are better off
financially, and in every way, than
we were before we had local option.
/ think drunkenness and the sale of
liquor have decreased 75 per cent or
more and that our people are well
satisfied with it; ut least I am.
Yours,
K. S. Scarf.

A Suggestion
to Farmers

Citizens Of this state are pretty
proud Of the fact that in yield per
acre Of cerials, Montana leads all
the other commonwealth.
This is no small thing to boast
Of and il is certain to attract wide
attention, and constitute splendid
advertisement for the state.
Those who give this matter a
second thought will arrive at the
conclusion that Montana ought to
be pretty near the top of the roll
in this matter, for the reason that,
outside of the old irrigated areas,
the land is new, end has not been
cropped for more than few years.
Mr.. Wilson, the secretary of ag-
riculture, in a letter written to
Governor Norris, prior to the Dry
Farming Congress in Billings,
among other things referred to this
matter and suggested that it would
be necessary in time for the Mon
tana farmers to grow crops that
would enrich the soil.
This suggestion of the secretary
appears to be reasonable, if the ex-
perience of older agricultural stat rs
is to be taken into consideration.
All the members of the clover
families build up the soil, while the
continual growing Of grain i'm
poverishes it.
It is just as we'll that the Mon
tana agriculturists should bear this
in mind, proud as they may be Of
their present average yield of grain
per acre. Butte Miner.

lines at the Bank of Yates.

did Showing

Beach Advance: Wibaux and
Dawson county is to Ee congratu-
lated upon the showing made at
the Dry Farming Congress recent
ly held at Billings, Montana, at
which the exhibits sent from Wi
baux secured four silver cups, val
ued at $500 as prizes.
The cups in themselves are of
little value to the community, other
than source of satisfaction, but
when they are given as testimon-
ial of the productiveness of soil Of
the country which surrounds that
town, and the county, presenting
to the homeseeker an irrefutible
argument Of the possibilities Of the
country, their value is inestimable.
It is no little effort to collect and
prepare an exhibit of such a mag
nitude as to take such prominent
place among the exhibits Of six
states Of the northwest as did this
exhibit, and W;baux is to be con
graduated upon the public spirit
which it manifests.
It will do much to advertise the

Shaw Engaged
For Institutes

Prof. Thos. Shaw, Of Minnesota,
has been engaged for the entire in
stitute season of 1909-1O by F. s.
Cooley, superintendent Of Montana
Farmers Institutes.
Prof. Shaw is one of the strong
est and best known agricultural
lecturers in America at the present
time. His career may be briefly
summed up as follows: For twen-
ty-fve years he earned his livlihood
on the farm. He was called from
the farm to the Professorship of
Agriculture in Guelph, Ontario, in
1888. In 1893 he began twelve
year tenn as Professor of Hus-
bandry at the Minnesota Univer-
sity, He exerted a wonderful
influence in the building up of ag.
ricultural education in the univer-
sity and over the state, and resigned
in 1905 to devote his time to inn
portant Investigations.
He has been editor Of St. Paul
Farmer, Orange Judd Farmer and
is at present associate editor of the
Dakota Farmer.
Prof. Shaw's books are many
and valuable. Among them are
"Weeds and How to Eradicate
Them,'' The Study of the
Breeds, "a n imal Breeding
Feeding Farm Animals" "Man
agement and Feeding of Cattle, ;

From Whence
Came the Gas?

A peculiar incident occurred at
the Farmers elevator on Monday,
last, when Messrs. A. E. Jeffers
and j. G. Parker were overcome by
gas-and they were not reading a
newspaper when his happened
either.
The writer interviewed the gen
tlemen "Jeff," iu particular, but
was unable to get all the desired
information as they were not de-
sirious of going into print, and
there were no spectators, SO in con-
sequence of these unkind circum-
stances we are obliged to 60 entire
ly upon suppositions. But, never
theless, our imagination is great.
We can just picture the boys when
they went into the engine room for
their after6inner siesta. They,
presumably, got into conversa-
ton, and, the gas created thereby
soon overcame them. How long
they slept is not known, but how
they "came out Of it is easy to CON-
prehend. Parker, being not we'll
balanced in the chair when he went
to sleep, was suddenly awakened
by rolling off upon the floor. He
then made his way to the open air
and it was not long then until they
both restored consciousness, al
though they have not much to say
at the present writing.
