lie has won in New York and in the
nation. He might have achieved a
higher place, through election. That
is AS may be. Certainly few people
have doubted that he would have
made a president equal to the great
intellectual, the great legal presidents
of the sos. But the people at this
particular moment, in time which is
charged with huge suspense, recognize
that the strength, the integrity of the
people of the republic, must be en-
pressed in the supreme court.
1t is difficult to get the people to ap-
preciate legal matters, above elective.
But gradually the people, through
that slow but sure process of think
ing-which Hughes has added and
allotted as much as any public man
believe, at this moment, that the SUI
preme court is the very center Of the
righteousness of the nation, charged
with the destiny of the republic.
There is not SO much concern over
any elective office today, not the high
est.
The people have come to realize
where the final Interpretation of true
democracy must lie. They ask for
men of intellectual strength, of SUI
preme integrity, on that bench, men
worthy to follow Marshall and fancy,
worthy to sit with Harlan. Hughes
is the peer of these men, and more
man Of affairs than any Of them. One
such appointment is sufficient to Sc
cure that bench.

prove true, it will furnish another
reason for the extraordinary fertility
of the soil.
1.-THE temperate summer climate,
especially when the grain is maturing,
gives the ripening process time to
make bright, plump kernels. The
nights are cool at the ripening season,
and this is especially favorable to
such ripening of the grain. These
three reasons. therefore, the rich soil.
the splendid subsoil and the temper
ate climate, account for the eXtraOrd-
mary yields.
"The crops whose growth has been
proved, beyond all question, include
winter wheat, winter rye, oats. barley
speltz. timothy, alfalfa; and these
without irrigation. The growth of
these is wonderful"

SHAW'S OPINION OF
THIS DISTRICTS SOIL

What Prof. Shaw thinks of this
portion Of Montana: lit is at least All
open question if the brown soils of
this section, volcanic in many in.
stances in their origin are not super
Tor in both producing and wearing
power to the black soils that are
largely composed OF humus. The
clay element is so abundant in these
brown soils, and it is so rich, that
they furnish the material Of growth
for a very long period. They are
especially rich in phosphoric acid and
potash, the abundance Of the former
element being largely responsible for
the great yields of the grain.

ed Oh the roadsides, where men were

that between the small stones usually
spoken of as gravel there was Il plen-
tiful supply of rich clay. The ragged
edges OF the pebbles were calcareous

composition and attrition caused by
cultivation, they supply the soil with
an abundance of lime.
"They also produce that mechanical
condition which enables the roots of
plants to go downward in search OF
food. 1t is unfair to speak OF the sub
soil as gravel. 1t should rather be
called y calcereous clay subSoil. In
many places the soil and subsoil have
so much white, earthly matter as to

WHAT THE APPOINTMENT OF HUGHES
MEANS.

1t is difficult not to indulge in sup
erlatives of enthusiasm. and declare
''the country is saved" since Presi-
dent Taft has seen the wisdom and
found the way, to make it "Mr. JUS
tice Hughes" says the st. Paul Dis
patch. But if this seems over-state-
ment, it decidedly Is not too much to
say that the country is safe, if not
saved-as safe as the presence of one
man can make it, in a most import
ant place, in supreme position.
For the next twenty-five years,
Providence confirming the Republic,
the Supreme Court of the United
States will be stamped with the per-
sonality Of Charles Evan Hughes. 1t
will make some difference what APP
pointments may come after his. But
with Hughes OH the supreme bench,
whatever the eNigencies Of any situa-
ton, whatever the bias of any choice.
there will be one man there whose APP
pointment is worthy the best choice
OF those master appointels, Cleveland
and Harrison. President Taft has
placed himself in Il class with these
Presidents in Supreme Court appoint
ments in the selection Of Governor
Hughes.
The country loses. to gain. There
has been an increasingly large number
OF citizens who regarded Governor
Hughes as an admirable candidate for
the presidency. His visit to the west
two years ago. his visit to the far
west year ago, persuaded the people
that he was one of them, il man among
men, if a leader Of men. His work
as governor of the state of New York
the one position which tests a man
in only less degree than the presidency
OF the United States-has compelled
the admiration of the entire nation,

A HINT To MONTANA FARMERS.

There was man on the Chicago
livestock market last week with a
bunch OF cattle, whose experience on
a farm in Nebraska is worth more
than passing attention. The man was
Charles Smith, who owns a 400 acre
farm in Butler county. Telling of
his experience, he said:
When went to Nebraska 20 years
ago bought 400 acres of Butler coun-
ty land at - an acre. During these
years have seen that country devel-
Op into what believe to be one of the
very best farming sections of the

first. then more rapidly, and though
the pioneers had many hardships to
endure. those who stayed with it have
had the satisfaction of becoming
highly successful and prosperous.

ADDITIONAL CITY LOCALS

n. J. Giltinan was in the city
Tuesday morning enrOute to Lewis
town, where he had a Maxwell spas
senger automobile delivered to him.
Mr.. Giltinan reports crop conditions
OH the Gilman Penwell ranch OH
Careless creek as being excellent.
He is, however, disappointed with the
manner in which some farmers be-
tween this point and his ranch are
preparing the soil. He says he pass
ed several parties who were breaking
the sod with disc plows and who in
tended to seed spring grains. The
soil was merely scratched, and even
with the best kind of future prepara-
ton, the result would be very un-
satisfactory seed bed. Mr.. Giltinan
believes in thorough preparation be-
fore seeding field. The soil should
be plowed to a depth of four or five
inches, and each days blowing should
be disked the same day as plowed.
The main object, Mr.. Giltinan be-
lieves, is to have firm, compact seed
bed, and to maintain surface mulch.

Mr.. Clingan arrived in Belt twenty
seven years ago, and has been an eye
witness of the development of'the diff
ferent resources of his district. ''It
is but recently" lie remarked, "that
the bench lands around Belt were
thought to be Of any usel other than
grazing grounds, but the last few years
some progressive farmers started OPP
erations OH these fertile areas, and the
wonderful returns secured have re-
suited in all the land in my district

believes the agricultural possibilities
of central Montana have only been

tate values will in a few years reach
point where $2S to $34 a year as the
net income OF an acre of land will be

LATE DESERT LAND
ACT RULING HELPFUL

No mere helpful ruling on the des-
ert land act has come out from the
interior department at Washington
than the recent decision by Secretary
of the Interior Ballinger, that here
after claimants under this law will
he permittedtO acquire title by make
ing proof that they have reclaimed by
irrigation one-elghth of the total area
applied for, says the Montana Lands,
Farms and Stock.
For several years past the ruling of
the interior department has required
claimants under the desert land act to
prove the reclamation Of the major
portion Of each 40 acres applied for.
The stringency Of this requirement
was such that great handicap was
placed upon the requirement of public
lands by settlers. The development Of
the west was seriously retarded.
1t may be that uninformed eastern
conservation faddists will set up a
howl over this newest ruling by Sec
rotary Ballinger, but those who are in
position to know the facts, and to APP
preciate the stimulus in the north
west. will give to it their unqualified
endorsement.
1t will be approved because the
lands Of the northwest are i'll these
days passing into the hands of actual
settlers, The days of the 'free range
stock baron' have definitely passed,
never to return. He is no longer Il
factor to be seriously reckoned with
in the disposition of the public lands.
Argument is needless to prove the
assertion that the vast "back to the
soil' movement will warmly endorse
Secretary Ballinger's helpful ruling.
