country into as fine condition as ii
has ever been in during a spring,
and insure the grass crop for the
year, according to VIM. Rea, .)r.
of Forsyth, Montana. Mr.. Rea is
member Of the firm of Rea Bros,
whose sheep holdings are the
second largest in Montana. "Con-
ditions are ideal from Livingston
to Wibaux," said Mr.. Rea, 'soak-
ing rains of the past few days have
freshened everything and given the
grass good start, insuring a
luxuriant range this year. Lamb
ing is about half over in eastern
Montana, and losses will be slight
far below normal. while the Bos-
ton buyers are apparently clinging
to the belief that wool should be
lower than it was last year, my
judgement is that Montana sheep

much for this years clip as that of
last. Clay Robinson Report.

SETTLEMENT

More Actual Settlers
in Six Month than in
Any Other State

2O6. Is acres. Number of filings:
80, 267. From June 30, 1908 to
June 30, 1909, 7,484 persons filed
upon homesteads. During eight
months following June 80, 1909,
10, 738 filings were recorded.
February to April Is, 1910, l2,5l4
homestead filings were recorded,
Land value five years ago, average
S. an acre; present value, average
$50 an acre.
More actual settlers have filed
upon lands in Montana during the
last six months than in any other
state in the Union in the same
period, according to reports re-
ceived from John L. Burns, sec
retary of the Dry Farming Cong
ress 1T international headquarters
in Spokane. That this immense
rush Of settlers is movement of
bona fide homeseekers is evidenced
by the fact that only y per cent
of the entries recorded were desert
land claims. The rest were made
by homesteaders who obtained
lands adapted to agriculture to be
converted into farms, improved
and made the foundatlon of per-
manent prosperity.
The settlement has been most
remarked in the larger counties Of
the state, and the lands taken up
have been tracts considered dry
farming in the majority Of cases.
Most of the settlers are experienced
dry farmers who have tried the
system in ether parts of the
country. Many OF them have sold
their holdings in the older farming
districts of eastern and middle
western states for from S65 to $3.50
or more per acre, and have entered
the new country where land is
cheaper and prospects for rapid
development better. Numerous
towns have sprung up on the
plains of eastern Montana in the
last two years, and the great plains
district of thenorthern half of the
state is also being dotted with
thriving young communities.

day in 9 to 2
Contest

Although in poorer trim for
playing than in any Of the previous
games Of the season, the local ball
team scored their first victory on
Sunday last, when they took Fal-
Ion into camp in an easily fought
contest. There was not an ounce
Of vim in the whole aggregation,
especially the local talent, and as
matter Of fact, the latter didn't
deem it necessary Judging from
the easy going manner in which
they executed their plays.
However, the FalIon bunch
seemed imbued with the idea that
they stood half a chance Of win
ming, as they more or less cour-
ageously lined up to bat for the
first time, and although they were
given much encouragement in that
inning by securing their first two
scores, the locals soon had them
backed off the universe. For eight
straight innings following the visi-
ting team was handed nice Juicy
lemon, and they failed to make the
lemon aid.
Wibaux was also passed lemon
in the early part Of the game but
it saamet to have touched the
spot. The score was tied in the
first, and with 3 2-base hits, num-
erous singles and home run by
Jennings, the locals succeeded in
piling up seven more scores thru
out the balance Of the game,
making the final score 9 to 9,

PAWNS GOLD TEETH
FOR MORE BOOZE

YORK, Pa, June 6.--The empty
sockets from which che had pulled
four OF his gold crowned teeth to
pawn them for drink cleared from
suspicion of theft a man picked up
by the police.
Chief of Police Bush had weekly
for the past month noticed a gold
tooth listed among the items of
pawned articles turned in by one OF
the local shops. There have been
a number Of dental robberies here,
and the chief ordered an investiga-
ton.

"Who owns the means whereby

interesting manner, shows that the
writer has done some deep thinking
and merits the attention of all Press
readers
This letter and others, in which
readers of The Press express their
opinions, follow:
Editor The Press--A great deal of
interest has been aroused by the
question, "Why is a bachelor" To
my mind, the various reasons given
have been very superficial. You
ask any number OF unmarried men
of % years Grover why they do not
marry and in four cases out of five
they will ask you in return how the
devil can they keep wife when
they can hardly keep themselves.
They have given you the reason

sentiment. The primal instinct to
mate is Just as strong today as it
ever was in the past. but when n
man knows that he is dependent on
another for his means of life, that IL
he marries his dearest principles
and opinions may have to be sacri-
feed in order to hold his job, he Is

be fashionable within 10 years
throughout the United States, and
that all talk of race suicide will
have subsidized. And all this will be
accomplished not by Roosevelt and
the lecturers. but by the actresses
of the stage"
So speaks Julie Opp, famous act
ress and wife of William Faver-
sham, her actor-husband. And here
is.what Miss Opp has to say on the
subject:
"There is absolutely no doubt
that actresses set the styles for al
most everything in America.
Clothes, manners and amusements
are all determined by how they
dress. how they talk and what they
do for recreation. A woman star is
abjectly followed by her admirers.

"And now actresse are beginning
to be mothers again. They have
given up the idea of not having fam
lilies as the actresses Of the past
generation did. They are doing
this because they realize that it is
natures decree that women should
bear children. and unless nature is
obeyed nothing is right.
"There is nothing that will keep
a woman beautiful if she defies nat
ural laws. To be beautiful, woman
must be healthy. and to be healthy
she must live a sane. normal life.
And the sane. normal life for
woman is to be the mother of big
family.

true. For instance. Ethel Barry

to take Rev. Mr.. Brown as a joke
