Oranges from the trees in Cali
fcrnia, apples from the trees in
Flathead in December. Such a COM
parison is in strict accordance with
facts, for T. D. Duncan on Decem-
Der %, picked sound and perfect
Ben Davis apples from his trees,
and upon their being compared
with those in the cellar, they were
found to be equally as good in con-

head, but Mr.. Duncan says that last
month was the mildest December
he has ever seen in the Flathead,
and he has lived here since 1888.

New Type OF WarshIp.

A new German type of warship Is a
reversion to the monitor In a greatly
improved form. The vessel will ex-
pose nothing but curved steel deck,
practically invulnerable, and single
turret amidship. There will be no
tunnels, for the vessel will be pro
PEELED by gas engines developing 5000
horsepower. The armament, consist
ing of two 16.7inch rapid-flre guns, will
be the latest development in ordnance
Since the vessel will be relatively
small, her 5000 horsepower engines
are expected to drive her at the rate
of q knots an hour. This looks like
an abandonment of the policy of put.
ting too many eggs in one basket. ex.
emplified in the monster battleship.
The new type would, of course. -
quite immune from attack by fyl az
machines. No explosive dropped from
above would injure 1t in the least
Concentrated fire, about which the
naval experts talk so much, could be
obtained by maneuvering the new type
In groups of five or six.

PAPER PLASTER AND HOW TO
USE 1T.

Paper plaster is one of the most
useful and durable mediums for dec
orations," says Woman's Home Com
panion for March. 1T may be used
on small or large surfaces, and even
in unskilled hands charming results
r1ay be produced with il.
Take old newspapers ami tear
them into very small pieces. Put a
mass OF them i'm a tub of water and
allow them to soak overnight. In
the morning put the whole mass thro.
ugh the meat-chopper. Wet 1T again
SO as to make it pliable like plaster.
Practice modelling the paper into diff
ferent shapes while 1t is in this state,
but remember, OF course, that it will
not be permanently cohesive. After
you have learned to handle the pulp
mix 1t with little glue. 1t will re-
main soft for some days and can be
nodded without haste, but as time
goes on, the nodded plaster will be-
come hard.
"Old glass bottles may be covered
with the plaster and decorated In
any way that you may fancy. Well
shaped jars may be decorated with
designs Of fruit or flowers. When
the pulp dries, 1T takes ON an attract
i've bronzy color without treatment
Of any sort. Soft brown or green
dyes may be worked in with the plas-
ter. however, and produce charming
effects.
Glove or handkerchief cases may
be made from ordinary wooden box
es. For handkerchief-case, cover a
oigar-box with the paper pulp, work
ing i'm some simple and appropriate
design, pinching 1t and modelling into
shape. For this purpose use a mar
row paper knife and make the more
delicate touches with the flattened
end of an orange stick. Pad and line
the inside of the box with silk.
VERY pretty bas-relief effects may
be made with the plaster. 1t may
even be used i'm executing lOw-relief
wall designs for borders or friezes.
If you wish a conventional design OF
figure, cut out as many patterns OF
the same design as you will need fol
the space to be covered. Paste these
securely on the surface to be deco
rated and mold the pulp over them
Keeping the pulp neatly within the
lines win insure accuracy and uni
formity. When the design is model
ed the pulp may be colored with wat
ter-colors dabbed on with sponge OF
with large soft brush.

ignorance of the people to the real
cause tor their treachery.
Both parties were pledged, fairly
and squarely, to economy in admins
stration OF the states affairs. E.
nough OF the majority party united
van enough OF the minority party TO
enact legislation which shows on its
face that the question OF economy
from the standpoint OF the common
people and taxpayer never entered
their heads, or iii it did, 1t was
driven out again as an annoying pest
is driven away.
Although there was a large element
OF the majority party more than will
ling to load up the appropriation bill
.nlgner than 1t ever was loaded before
and higher than there is amy reason
able need for its being loaded, the
majority party alone could never hav
passed the appropriation bill in its
present form, nor could they have
enacted the great lot OF special road
and bridge bulbs passed.
The majority had to furnish enough
members to make the enactment OF
uhese laws possible, and the minori-
ty party furnished its quota right
along with the majority.
1t may seem absurd and ridiculous
ly Silly, then, to hear one OF the
democratic senators yesterday-a SEN
ator who has been In the very front
rank OF those who aided in the pledge
breaking that has characterized this
session, and senator who has given
every encouragement possible to ex-
pend,,ures of large sums of money
II sounded very inappropriate to have
this minority leader arise In his
place as the roll was being called on
the final passage of the appropriation
bill, and, holding up his hands in
mock horror, declare the iniQmties OF
the Lin and cast his vote against it.
1t will be most difficult for the in
independent thinking citizen of the
stale to determine how or where to
place the blame. No one who has at
all followed the workings of the re-
cent session, could hold either party
at fault as party, for the enact
ment of ill-advised legislation, or for
the failure to enact promised legis-
lation There were traitors to the
people in both parties, because there
were pledge breakers dn both part
les, and 1t Is these pledge breakers
who are responsible.
Can we find men who will not sur
render their duty to the whole people
In return for favors from special i'm
terests who have means of reaching
them as individuals which the people
do not have?-Capital New.-3-6th.
