THE WOMAN AND THE CARROT
Parable Taken From the Russian Folk
Lore Points q Lesson Full
OF Meaning.

This was the story my friend the
Arkansas rabbi told. It is from the
folk lore of Russia;
A woman who had lain In torment
a thousand years lifted her face to-
ward heaven and cried to the Lord to
longer. And he looked down and said;
Can you remember one thing you
did for a human being without reward
in your earth life?"
The woman groaned in bitter an
guish, for she had lived In selfish
ease; the neighbor had been nothing to
her.
'Was there not one? Think well."
"Once-it ives nothing--I gave to a
starving man carrot, and he thanked
me-"
Bring, then, the carrot Where is

TT Is long since. Lord" she sobbed,
''and 1t is lost"
"Not SO. Witness of the one un.
selfish deed of your life. 1t could not
perish. Co" said the Lord to an an.
gel, find the carrot and bring II
here"
The angel brought the carrot and
held 1t over the bottomless pit, letting
1t down till it was within reach OF the
woman. "Cllng to it, he said. She
did as she was hidden and found her

Little Ambition Formerly Was

GREAT PROGRESS MADE

Helena, Mont, Sept. 15,-An ag-
ricultural fair to be held Get. al
Poplar, this state. by the Indians of
the Fort Peck reservation, will en-
phasize the great natural resources
Of 1,345,000 acres that will be
thrown open for homesteads next
spring. The total acreage of the
reservation is 2,06S,693 and the In
dians have been allotted 1858
acres. This will be the last open
ing Of large tract to homesteaders.
The origin Of this agricultural
fair, which will do much to attract
neighbors for the Indians, is due to
Louis Hill, chairman of the board of
directors of the Great Northern rail-
way, although fair was not Hills

Saw Lack of Ambition.

A year ago Hills attention was
called to the lack of ambition of the
Sioux Indians as farmers and he
thought Of a plan to stir them up
bit before they would be called upon
to become active competitors OF the
whites, who would move into the
reservation on the formal opening.
So Hill invited the Sioux chief and
number of the leading men of the
tribe TO go to New York to attend
the Land Show. The Indians ac-
eepted and what they saw aroused
them The direct result is that $500
acres were cultivated this year by
indians against 1900 last year and
The agricultural fair was arranged to
show their products. There will be
;nne fine wheat, grasses and forage
IN display at Poplar and a notable
football game
The football game will be between
the Peigan tribe of the Blackteef
reservation and the Mandan tribe Of
the Fort Peck reservation. The vic
tor will play the University Of Min
nesota team. Several notable stars
Of the Carlisle football team came
from these tribes and some of these
men will play i'll the game and num-
erous others arc coaching the teams
Statement by Expert.
Prof. Thomas Shaw, an agricul
tural expert, has recently been in
specting the Fort Peck reservation
and concerning the lands open tC
settlement he says:
ION the superstition that the land
will be devoted to the growing OF
wheat on the summer fallow plan
which would mean that one-half the
area would be in crop at one time
and on the further superstition thai
the wheat would yield 25 bushels

mate, the aggregate production
would be 19,3I2,50Q bushels II
this land should be entirely devoted
TO the growing of barley on the sum
ner fallow plan the yield would be
80, 100000 bushels, as barley grown
on such land should average 40
bushels per acre. If the entire area
were devoted to the growing of oats
the total production would be 49,.
