Cummins Criticizes Taft.

DIES MONIES, Sept. 5.-Asserting
that he has none but the most friendly
feelings for President Taft, but that
the nations chief executive does not
'take the aggressive view," Senator
Cummins today sets out in a ''bill of
particulars,' the reasons why he
thinks Taft should not be returned to
the presidential chair.
Among other things mentioned in
Mr.. Taft's alignment Mr.. Cummins
points to the executives position on
the Canadian reciprocity question.
That measure the senator calls "the
most unfortuna ate act of legislation
passed within the period Of the present
administration" Mr.. Cummins says
he is hopeful for the nomination of a
progressive republican.

A Holmes of the United States bureau

Montana. The Anaconda Copper
company has been sued by the govern
ment for damages, alleged to be due
to fumes from its smelters. Pending
disposal of the suit the investigation
was authorized.

WANT MONTANA HAY,
Drouth In Dakotas Causes Shortage
Of Stock Feed.

ST. PAUL, Sept. 5.-Montana is
going to turn in and feed the livestock
of Minnesota and North and South
Dakota in those loo alities where col.
ditions during the past summer af-
fected the hay crop, which Is in a
measure q reversal of old time condi.
tons.
The Northern Pacific, responsive to
the petitions of the Minneapolis hay
exchange and the commercial clubs of
various towns where the forage crop
problem ia serious, has put into effect
rates of 30 to SO cents a hundred
pounds from the Judith Gap to points
in North Dakota. This means th at
alfalfa hay will come east. It will
cost Sc a ton to move, but as it can be
bought in Montana with profit to Mon.
tana raisers at $40 9 ton, it can be
laid down for SIG, or q a ton less
than prevailing prices for timothy.
A thousand carloads Is the estim ate
of the quantity that the Northern Pa.
cifc has available.
The Milwaukee road, which has q
forage problem yer Q large extent OF
South Dakota that was hit hard by
drouth this year, will probably put in
equally low rates from Montana and
the Great Northern is expected to fol-
low suit. The Billings country in
Montana has q big alfalfa crop and
alfalfa hay, the dealers say, will this
year prove q boon to many farmers
further east.

The Best Whitewash.

Undoubtedly the very best white.
wash that can be made is what is
known as government whitewash, or
white house whitewash. This really
makes q durable paint that won't
come off, and that can be used for
either outside or inside work. The
formula is as follows:
Take half q bushel Of unslacked
lime, slack 1t with warm water and
cover it during the process to keep in
the steam. Strain the liquid through
q fine sieve or strainer; add q peck OF
salt previously we'll dissolved in warm
water, three pounds of ground rice
boiled to a thin paste and stirred in
boiling hot; half pound OF Spanish
whiting and q pound OF glue which
has been previously dissolved over q
slow fire. Then add FIVE gallons OF
hot water to the mixture, stir we'll and
let 1t stand for q few days, covered up
from the dirt.
It should be put on hot. One pint
OF the mixture will cover q square
yard, properly applied. Small hair
brushes are best. There Is nothing OF
this character that can compare with
it for outside or inside work, and II
retains its brilliancy for years. Col.
oring matter may be put in OF any
shade. Spanish ", yellow ochre
or red.

ADVERTISING A A

More has been done in the past two
years in advertising the resources OF
Montana than in the previous ten, an d
there is no one who will dispute the
result. While the Northern Pacific
and Great Northern gave Montana
much publicity in the years preceding
1909, when the Milwaukee completed
its extension into Montana it set q
new pace, which other carriers fol-
lowed. This activity on the part of
the railroad companies resulted in the
state doing some work on its own &C.
count. While the money available
for this official publicity work has not
been great, it has been judiciously
expended, and Commissioner Hall OF
the bureau OF agriculture and labor,
by cooperating with other agencies
devoted to the same end, has accom-.
plished a great deal.
The railroads., in addition to book.
lets and other printed matter, have
advertised agricultural Montana by
means of travelling exhibit cars con-
tanning products of the field and the
orchard. 1t has been found that this
method OF publicity brings more di.
rect results than the printed matter,
though it is essential that the two be
co-ordina ted. Now the land shows
offer another means to Montana PEG.
pie to show what can be done and
what is being done with and on the
lands OF the state.
Some interesting facts have been
printed recently on the returns from
investments in exploiting a state,
these being for the benefit of the
property owners and taxpayers. In
Minnesota the last year about 10, 900
people have been brought in, accord
ing to Governor Eberhart, as a result
of land show and soil exhibits. The
average wealth brought in is at least
1000 per capita.
California is spending $40, 600 per
county for advertising: Kansas spends
800, 900 per annum; Governor Hadley
of Missouri, writes that the legisla.
ture there appropriated S25, 600 and
the money was not available for the
first years work, the banks of Kan
sas City and St. Louis, realizing the
Importance of the work, subscribed the
1925, 600 that the work might start;
Wyoming has $40, 900 per annum to
spend for the next two years; Ne.
braska, which has little to advertise,
ia talking $685. 600 per annum, and
Iowa is putting on q campaign to
secure 800, 600 per annum to tell the
truth about the of the state
and keep the people from leaving it.

A USELESS

The news that the bureau OF labor
and m is to make an inquiry
into the cost of living will hardly
cause a wave OF popular interest to
sweep over the country. Those who
pay attention to such things have long
since ceased to expect anything tangi-
BILE from this bureau, Or from any Of
the other Investigating bodies that
have essayed to find out why consum-
ers have been taxed out of all proper
ton to the prices that farmers receive
for food stuffs. Added to this apathy
Is the REMEMBRANCE that this Is the
third attempt OF the bureau of com.
merce aud labor in this same field of
inquiry, says the Kansas City Jour-
nal.
When, in response to popular agi.
tation, the bureau of commerce and
labor was established, some Of the
more enthusiastic believers in its
possible utility hoped that it would be
able to throw some instructive light
upon the economic problems OF the
country. But as yet the bureau OF
commerce and labor has not done go.
So far as the commerce feature is
concerned, any possible usefulness OF
the bureau has been appropriated by
the interstate commerce commission.
In the field OF labor, about all thai
has been accomplished by the bureau
has been the multiple alton of public
documents dealing with statistics Of
the labor situation which appear to
be of no earthly value to anybody.
The e inquiry into the cost Of
living will cover the years of 1908 to
1911. We may expect that the sex
perts" will make a careful tsbulatior
of the cost of certain products with
various and sundry abstruse theories
as to why farmers do not get more for
their work while the consumers pay a
constantly increasing scale. This re.
port will be printed at public expense,
it will be sent out to q lot of people
who will not read it, and then the
thing will be forgotten.
1t is a stubborn fact that prices have
not been lowered one cent in any d.
