Smoke From The
Montana Fires
Darkness has Been upon Us for Sew.
eraI Days-the Sun Obscured by
the Smoke of the Burning
Forests.

The atmosphere in North Dakota
has been filed with smoke 70 ra mum.
Der of days which was blown here
from the Montana forest fires, by q
brisk west wind, from a distance Of
seven hundred miles. The air was
permeated with fine ashes,, which
could be seen dropping on ones
clothing. The smoke was first
noticed Sunday morning, when tho
sun appeared as q big ball of hre
thru the smoky atmosphere. Later
in the day the sun had disappeared
altogether, and darkness was upon
us. It became necessary to turn on
the lights in our homes and they ap.
peared perfectly white thru the color.
ed atmosphere. The light became as
subdued as it is at the twilight.
Everything appeared as tho one look.
ed thru yellow glasses. The smell OF
the smoke was very apparent. All day
Monday these conditions kept up, in
terfering to some extent with some
lines of business. The photographers
for instance could not complete tn ir
work on hand.
The frest fires have been raging
throughout Washington, Montana and
Idaho. Many lives have been lost and
millions of dollars worth Of trees and
other property have been destroyed.
The Montana state militia has been
called out to fight the fires which have
been spreading at an enormous rate.
About the only thing that will put
them out Is a good general rain.
Thousand OF birds could be seen
flying over Minot eastward trying to
get away from the smoke and fire.

Mt. Lake Park, says the season
which is about closed was marked
by the largest attendance in the his
tory OF the Park, and there still re-
main at the Park many cottagers.
who are enjoying the salubrious at

year, were mammoth affairs, and
that similar conferences will be held
on a larger scale at the Park next

proportions, since Mr.. Naylor of the
Wheeling Board of Trade. who is

MoNsARRAT DEAD.

NEW YORK, Sept Nicholas
Monsarrat. OF Columbus, o.. president
OF the Kanawha and Michigan rail-
road, died suddenly here today.
Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1910-07-15

After fifteen months absence, exact
ly as scheduled, Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt disembarked from the Kali
serin Auguste Victoria, Saturday morn
ing, June IS, at IL a. m. To the keen
disappointment of a large group of
newspaper correspondents, Mr.. Roose-
welt absolutely refused, as heretofore,
to be interviewed or to talk on politi-
cal subjects, but his rapid fire of ques-
lions showed the same virile interest
in public affairs as before.
If the welcome rendered by the
vast throng may be considered a
criterion upon which to base a "re-
turn from Elba," surely there was no
discordapt note in the immense recep-
ton parade, nor in the wildly clamor-
GUS crowd which cheered at every
glimpse and hung on his very word.
The incidents of the day in New
York were many, but perhaps none
better illustrated the nervous energy
and vitality of the man. the near-mania
to be up-and-doing, which he has
brought back to us, than the discard
ing of horses and carriages for the
swifter and more reliable automobiles.
The moment the Roosevelt family and
Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1910-07-15

immediate party landed, they were
whisked away in White Steamers to
the home of Mrs. Douglas Robinson at
433 Fifth avenue. A little later, when
the procession reached the corner OF
Fifty-ninth street and Fifth avenue,
Colonel Roosevelt again showed his
preference for the motor car In gen.
eral and the White cars in particular,
when he, Cornelius Vanderbilt and Col
lector Loeb transferred from their car
riage to White Steamers, which we're
in waiting for them.
After luncheon at Mr.. Robinson's
house, the entire party, including
Colonel Roosevelt, again entered White
cars and were driven to Long Island
City, where they we're to take spe-
cial train to the ex-President's home
at Oyster Bay.
The supremacy of the White cars
with the Roosevelt party was again
demonstrated on Sunday, when the
party was driven to church in the
White Steamers, and group of some,
forty prominent Rough Riders were
taken in a White Gasoline Truck to
clambake at the Travers island club
house Of the New York Athletic Club.

piles in the field and slake 1t with wa
ter. About five gallons of water should
be poured over each bushel of lime
when it is emptied upon the pile, and
the whole pile should then be covered
with moist SOIL After few days
practically all of the lime in the pile
will be fine enough to spread easily,
either In a grain drill with fertilizer
attachment, or a lime and fertilizer
spreader 1t should be screened first,
unless the distributor has a screen.
When a lime spreader is not avail
able the burnt lime may be placed in
rs piles, of one bushel each, on each
acre (when the application is one ton
per acre. These piles may be either
water-slaked or they may be covered
with moist soil to depth of three of
three to four inches. In few days
the lime will be sufficiently powdered
and can be spread with a shovel.
Quicklime may also be air-slaked by
exposing it in piles to the air; but air
slaked lime is not as valuable as wa
ter-slaked lime, and is usually lumpy
and hard to apply. A manure spread
err can also be used for distributing
lime If the bottom of the spreader is
covered with chaff before being filled
with lime. Quicklime that has been
pulverized by machinery is now on
the market This form Of lime should
come into more common use, as 1t
is much more convenient to use than
lump quick lime. 1t can be used in
the distributor, manure spreader, or
drill, without previous treatment. But
be sure it is fresh, and not at all air.

One great advantage of the ground
limestone or ground shells is that it is
already in a condition to apply from
the wagon, or in a lime spreader, fer

shovel 1t is also less disagreeable
to apply, as it has none of the burn
ing, caustic properties which make
quicklime so disagreeable to handle
Ground limestone, however, does moi
distribute as readily from Inns
spreader as slaked lime, being muel
heavier. 1t is perhaps best applied By
hand from piles. A pile of 100 pound:
each, 33 feet apart each way, will
make an application of two tons pei
acre.
