No Huekleberrx Crop This Year.

hard rain of last Saturday spoiled it

Siders. one of our oldest inhabitants
himself agrees to it and is informing

SMALL INSURANCE
Dwelling Was Occupied by Family
of Frank Mills. Who Were Not
at Home at the Tins

The two-story frame dwelling on
South street which belonged for
years to the late Mrs Pohl. caught
lire Friday night between $3.50 and 9
nearly burning to the ground. The
building was formerly a boarding
house but is now a two family dwell
ing Frank Mills. plasterer lived
In the east half the other half being
unoccupied at present.
1t is thought the fire started in
the kitchen Although there had been
no fire in the range since noon. the
chimney could easily have become
overheated and slowly burning fire
started. which made no headwav un-
til it came in contact with the wool.
The stove was set close to the wall.
A lamp had been left burning on
the kitchen table and at first it was
thought by some that the fire might
have started in this way but it is re-
ported by one of the first on the
scene that the lamp was left burn
Inc until the roof caved in.
The building is an old one and
when it once caught fire burned like
so much finder The back part of
the house was almost burned to the
ground.
All of the Mills family were away
from home at the time. Mr.. Mills
being in Argos and the rest of the
family were downtown They did
not know it was their home that was
in flames until thew with the humid
reds of other curious and excited
people reached the scene Of the con-
flagration.
For this reason there was consid-
cradle delay in sending in the alarm.
After the alarm had been sent in a
second DELAY was due to the fact
that no horses were available for the
hose cart as one of them had been
hired out Also several of the fire
men were at the theatres and thus
were hindered In reaching the en-
CINE house.
However when the boys did get
there they did remarkably quick
work and it was not long before the
fire was under control Fortunately
very little breeze was blowing and SO
the near bv buildings we're not so
greatly endangered as they might
have been.
+ Most of the furniture had been
saved before the fire was at its
height. although much of it was wat
err soaked and some few pieces were
destroyed by fire.
What was saved was stored in the
old planning mill over night and early
this morning the former occupants
Of the place moved into the first
house north of the Church of God
on Water street.
Mr.. Miller had 5000 insurance on
his goods. while ]. A. Molter. the
owner of the building. hal bnt 500
on the house Mr. Moltsr had intend-
ed to remodel the dwelling in the
near future and for this reoson had
not carried a lareer insurance. The
ayact loss can not be determined at
This time but will no doubt exceed
the amount of insurance.
1t was remarkable that so great a
lumber of people reached the place
so soon. But that part of the sky
was lit up and this was noticed by
many before the whistle was heard
Then as usual everyone rushed to the
scene of excitement.

Selecting the

Dairying in Montana is in it's in.
1ancy ard has most promising fu-
ture. The production of dairy prod
ucts is not keeping pace with the in
crease of population, consequently
prices of dairy products are higher
than they have been for a great many
years. ,-.t
This line of farming, when intelli-
gently carried on. is most profitable;
surpassed only by fruit raising in GER
tain localities. The success of this
line of farming depends largely upon
how 1t is started. If inteliigently be-
gun, it is most likely to be successful.
The first step is the selection of the
sire, which should be free of all dis
eases, especially tuberculosis. This
can be readily determined by what is
known as the tuberculin test. The
second step is the consideration of
ancestry and individuality. 1t is said
that great mothers produce great sons.
This seems to be true, according to
dairy records A great COW will most
likely produce a great son, therefore
the sire should be selected from a
high producing cow
Dairy performances should not stop
at the dam, but be possessed also by
her daughters and sisters. The great
err the number of high producing
daughters and sisters, the greater will
be the value of the son. The highest
producing herds are most frequently
established by selecting the sires from
high producing cows, but considera-
ton should also be given to the per-
formances of the sire's SIDE The
more daughters and sisters that he
has of high capacity, the more valu-
able will be the son by him.
After having decided upon the an
cestry, the third step is consideration
of the individuality. The sire in form,

kickinu as a Trade,

What's the use Of ainn!ess kicking
Without method. without plan,
Faults and flaws forever picking
From Beersheba up to Dan;
Chewing as a steady habit
On the tough and time worn rag.
In a very verbal riot
And regular language jag?
Kicking will not pay expenses
On trip to Timbuktu:
Kicking will not build up fences
That the hogs cannot push through.
Neither will it make the neighbors
Bring in bread to feed your face,
Lessening in part the labors
That accrue about the place.
Kicking Will not cause the weather
To be chary with its frown.
Neither will it lift a feather
t'rom the weight that bears you down
Kicking will not purchase pickles.
Prunes, potatoes, pumpkin pies,
Nor the other grub that tickles
When it comes as a surprise.
Give your crouch a long vacation.
Do not try to show the way

It's thing that does not pay
Chuck this most unlovely acting
That can never raise your grade.
Kicking isn't worth contracting
As habit or a trade.

Japan's military expenses are growing at a treme-d- ous rate. and every extra million that she puts in 0 armaments makes her less threatening as commercial rival The vast drain Of military ex- penditures upon her people and her capital must tend 10 cripple her in- dustTlAl efficiency.
