MONTANA $ GREAT STRIDE
 IN FARMING
Many Acres of Arid District Be- ing Reclaimed By Dry" ProreSS of AgriIuIture - Farmers Experiences.

| The following from the Butte. Mon
 tana Miner is Of interest to readers ' of the Review:
 Tn the last few years Montana has | become greatly interested in dry land | arming as dist nguished from the ir rigation form of agriculture and much headway has been made along these | ines, both in the eastern and western ! iccuons of the state That land | which was formerly considered ard.
 an be cultivated and made to pro- luce valuable crops under 8 certain
 ystem of cultivation, is now general,
 y recognized.
 When the present homestead bill
 was passed. it's fTamers did not hay, m mind so muca the arid as the oth- CT states of the Union and the idea was to give away to every home-build- CT one hundred and sixty acres of arabic land.
 Now many of the Western reDrr- sentatiyes in Congress feel that the dry land homesteader should be put upon an equality with his more fort unate brother outside of the arid belt. and in order to accomplish this it has been proposed to give him three hundred and twenty instead of one hundred and sixty.
 The theory is that if the Dry Farmer can only crop his hand every ether year he ought to have twice as much ground in order to even things up.
 This measure according to the Miners Washington correspondent. will come up at tae next session of Congress. Last Kinter it was d. ieated because the bill was loosely drawn and might have permitted of some fraud if it had been passed.
 "A dry farm Of three hundred ana twenty acres does not appear to be too much Co allow a man for a nome stead, but. of course. land taken up under th's law would have to be al- sClutely incapable of being irrigated. or complications might ensue. If men with an eye to tle future could secure land that might afterwa-I be included in some government irrica- ton project an injustice would be worked. Throughout 8 large section or Montana the three hundred and twenty acre homestead would prore an inducement to settlers. and would help 10 build up a sta,c and sdd To its taxable wealth
 The experience of other sem rid countries has been that the breaking up Of the soil and it's cultivation has changed cl'matic condi- ;Ous and in- creased the average annual rainfall.
 The experience Is certain to be dn- plicated in Montana Tn time, as Dry Farming extends over greater area of this state"
 ADropJs Of this editorial Is the fol lowing resolution forwarded Dy the Board of Control CT the Congress tc the Wyoming representation in Con. gress last week:
 Resolved. That we, the members of the Board of Control Of the Third Trans Missouri Dry Farming Con gress. to be held in Cheyenne. W-o- mng.

GERMAN EMPEROR DOUBTED HIS ARMY
Officers Of That Body, How evefr Soon Assured Him
 Fears Were GroundIeSS.

BERLIN, Jan. l6.-That Emperor i William doubted the fidelity of the German army in the political crisis that recently swept over the empire will be shown by tomorrows issue of the Vorwaerts, wlich has a new and | startling version of the new year. conference between the kaiser and the commanding generals.
 The Norwaerts will say that at this conference tIe emperor referred to ! the reichstag debstes in November,
 when he was bitterly assailed for his
 aDsolutism, and asked h generals | If IL were true that the army had be- come affected with the general antag- 1 onism 10 ais rule. He asked the gen erals for a frank statement concern
 ing the opinion that prevailed ;s inc army, with particuls.- 1 renee to the reported disaffect on arising from tho political az tatiCn.
 The generals replied unanimously, the Ncrwaerts will say that the off cers and soldiers alike did not con cerH themselves With po'itcs, and that
 there was not the slightest gn of
 any unrest in the army.
 This an5wer greatly pleased the em-
 pero-, who is reported as saying: "l am greatly pleased to know that
 l can continue 10 repose every conf
 dence in the army. Knowing that l.
 will remain true, even if others desert
 me
 The emperor's questions, implying
 doubt as to the fidelity of the army.
 are considered a significant sign of
 the times. The army has always
 teen the enc arm on which the kaiser
 has rested with absolute assurances Of safety and support. That he should have believed t poss ble for the army 10 have become d 'saffected shows tt what extent the emperor was fright ened by the recent reichstag inter- pellatiOns.
 While the Vorweaerts will not touch upon the kaiser's commendatory ref erence during this conference to an article appearing in the Deutsc1e Revue warning the German people to beware of England, proof is accumu- lating that the kaiser's approval of the sentiment of tais article was so pronounced as to give it a poIitical sign ficance rather than a mere mill tary suggestion, as the kaiser sought to expla'n.
 This reference has again stirred up the enmity of the British press and brought the relations between Eng land and Germany to such a strained point that there was danger for a while of Kng Edward and Queen Alexandra abandoning their visit to Berlin in the spring
 The ministry of war has ordered an official investigator on into the extent of socialism in the German army. [

The most interesting announce
ment ever made in connection with
the automobile industry was un-
doubleday that made a month or two
ago to the effect that the new models
or the White Steam Cars could be run
on kerosene, or coal oil, instead of
gasoline. Everyone at once recog-
nized that the use of the new fuel
would add materially 10 the advan-
tages which the White already pos
sessed over other types of cars.
There were some people, however.
VINO were sceptical as to whether or
not the new fuel could be used with
complete success and, therefore. the
makers Of the White Car. the White
Company, Of Cleveland, Ohio. deter
mined 10 make public demonstra-
ton OF the new fuel in the 1909 Gid
den Tour.
From the standpoint Of the public.
no test more satisfactory could have
been selected. First Of all, the dis
lance covered on the Glidden Tour
from Detroit TO Denver and thence 10
Kansas City was 1850 miles. This
was certainly more than sufficient 10
bring out any weaknesses, n such had
existed. STU more important was
the fact that the car was at an times
"hile on the road under the supervi-
sion OF observers, named By those

Therefore, u would have been impOs-
siDie for the driver OF the White 10

nicted. Al night the cars were

showed that kerosene is at least
hfteen per cent. more efficient, gallon

other respects made a most creditable
showing, and there was the usual riv-
airy among the observers TO be as

could ride with the maximum Of com

pairs charged against the car during
