BRIGHT CROP PROSPECTS.

The spring fever is on. The desire
to tickle the soil and get close to ma
ture is abroad in the land. The first
spring breeze brings the call of the
soil and the former farmer boys-who
are endeavo1ing to drag out an eNis-
tence in the cities-feel like needing
the cry.
The farmers throughout this section
are starting on the 1910 agricultural
campaign under very favorable aus
pieces. The large amount of snow that
from the benches, and winter wheat
has been growing for two weeks.
Flowing is reported from all direc-
tions. and the hum of agricultural
machines is again with us.
The forehanded agriculturists have
their machinery prepared. the seed for
the spring crops cleaned. and the more
careful and scientific ones nave made
tests of it's terminating qualities. The
farmers all expect at least one more
storm before the spring really opens.
but they are eager to get to work after
the winters rest.

Asaph Hall, in charge Of the observ-

before any great time has passed.
Halley's comet is periodic, circling
the sun in it's parabolic orbit once in
every seventy-four years. The Chi

HORSES ARE GOOD PROPERLY.

While we may charge the packers
prices Of meats, there is one class Of
livestock which is on the boom now
with which the packer has nothing to
'lo. This is horses. The demand for
commercial horses is increasing at il
greater ratio than the supply, with
the result that values have moved up
with all other livestock. There is
shortage of horses in every civilized
nation. and although there was an in
crease OF nearly half million head
in the number in the United States
last year, the market opened this year
with quotations $3.50 higher than
they were year ago, says the Helena
Record.
p. An eastern dealer in horses is
I Nnoted us saying that never before in
the history of the country has so
/ large a stock of native pure bred
idraft horses been absorbed as has
gone into consumption this season.
! Almost all the breeders have sold out
/ every desirable hoof they cared to let
. go, and this is true of both males and
! females.
J No one will begrudge the Montana
man who had the courage and fore
sight few years ago to invest in a
good stallion realizing handsomely
from his investment. When the mar
ket was poor they were sufficiently
courageous to invest hundreds of
dollars improving their stock and
they are today reaping the reward.
And they will continue to do so for
many years. The tens of thousands
of settlers who will make new homes
in the northwest in the near future
will furnish Il market for horses
which will keep the demand for years
ahead of the supply. There was II
time when horses discarded for city
work helped to supply the country
demand. But with the electric cars
displacing the horse, and electric
vehicles utilized for merchandise de.
livery purposes, the city supply has
Awindled until it is almost nothing
and the man in the country must de-
pend upon the breeder for his animals

MONTANA AND HER
VARIOUS RESOURCES

Great is Montana, and it's greatness
is just beginning to be appreciated by
even it's own people. In area it is the
third largest of the states; in natural
wealth and opportunity it leads all
it's sister commemorative.
Montana stands first of all the
states in the production of copper.
1t stands first in the production Of
wool. 1t stands first in the produc-
ton OF beef cattle. 1t stands first in
the deposits Of coal. Second only to
Washington, it leads in the amount
and value of its standing timber. Its
average acreage yield of grain is
higher than that OF any other state.
1t is the best watered state in the
Union. More electric power can he
developed from the streams of Mon
tana than from those of any other
state.
Montana produces annually II per
cent of the copper of the world, or IS
per cent Of the copper Of the United
States. Its yield OF gold, silver and
lead brings the total output of its
mines to considerably over fifty mil
lion dollars per year. But great as
is it's yield Of mineral wealth, the pro-
ducts of its ranches and it's farms,
the latter in the infancy OF their de-
velOpment, is still greater. One av-
erage acre OF Montana land will yield
as much as two average acres i'll any
other state. This means that mile
for mile and section for section, Mon.
tana can and will ultimately sustain
n population twice as dense as that Of
any other state. And in area Mon
tana is larger than the japanese en-
pire, which has Il population Of over
thirty millions.
The great source Of Montana
strength lies in the diversity of her
resources. \ Chinese wall could be
built around this state, and for cen
turtles to come she could sustain III
luxury ten times her present poplla-
! ton. With soil which yields all
that man may eat. with mines which
produce all the useful metals, with
power sufficient for all transportation
and manufacturing purposes. Ma

The Riots In China.

Hong Kong, Nov. 12.-Reports re-
ceived here today from Canton, indicate
that all the American and foreign mis-
sionaries in Lien Chou, Kwang-Si
province, have escaped to that city, The
mission houses having been burned
and the property OF the missionaries
destroyed by mobs. Trained Chinese
troops have been sent into Lien Chou
TO put down the rioters.
The American Presbyterian College,
the hospital and college of the mission
aries at Tsoi Yuen Pc. a few miles away,
and number OF other buildings were
burned.
The riots are said to have been caused
by an edict Of the government that all
houses should be numbered. The ig-
norant natives believed that this was
but another method OF levying addi-
tional taxes upon them, and blamed
the foreigners. The uprising took the
missionaries by surprise, as there had
been no anti-foreign demonstrations for
two months.
Among the missionaries who escaped
with their lives were DrsS. Machle and
Ross, Mrs. Ross; Mr.. and Mrs. Il F.
Edward; Miss Elda Patterson; Mr.. Car
YER, and Mr.. Runkle and others.
