Thousands Of Acres In Peas.

BOHEMIAN, March 30.-According to
President Walter Cooper of the Boze-
man chamber of commerce, pea seed
amounting 10 value to more than $780,
600, win be planted In G allatin county
this year. Figuring roughly 10000
acres will be planted in peas, which,
until last season we're an unknown
quantity in this section. So we'll
ad apted did the crop prove to local
soil that the industry promises to rival
the growing of wheat and oats in the
Gallatin valley. The seed used in this
soil will average, say experts, three
bushels to the acre, making approx
mately &C, 1000 bushels OF peas to 60 in
the ground here. 1t is probable at
least two warehouses and at least one
factory, will be constructed in Boze-
man during the present year as az
outcome of the growing pea industry.

A REMARKABLE MOVE.

A most peculiar move for sure is
that which aims at inducing President
Taft TO withdraw as the republican
nominee for president. 1t sounds like
a fairy tale and most people would
he ready to declare the story a fraud
were it not for the seemingly authentic
announcement that petitions are to
be circulated in all the states of the
union asking that Taft refuse the
nomination.
1t is hard to understand the thing
1t is announced that the plan origi.
mates with standpatters who fear de-
feat in November. 1t is inconceiv-
able though that the move really has
such origin. When they drove their
steam roller through the Chicago con-
vention the standpatters knew they
were committing suicide as far as the
present campaign is concerned. Seem
ingly they preferred defeat in this
campaign to success with Roosevelt
That being the case why should they
try to back pedal now?
If the thing is a Roosevelt move
what motive prompts it? Is it the
purpose now of Roosevelt to keep out
of the race if Taft will also quit?
Then why did not the colonel take
that course at Chicago. The stand
patters would have been glad to have
co-operated with him then. They
would have named Hadley or some
one else had Roosevelt stood for it.
But he would not stand for such a
course. He was a dog in the manger
then.
1t is possible the colonel has chang
&c his mind since the Baltimore con-
vention was held. There is now no
need of newly formed party and the
colonel knows this quite we'll. He
may see defeat ahead since Woodrow
Wilson became the democratic stand
ard bearer and may be ready to re-

Pendleton and the Pendleton Elks
will make a big showing in the great
Elks parade in Portland tomorrow.
1t is a showing in which not only To-
cal members of the order but all

This because the appearance of the
Pendleton brigade in the parade will
be the best advertising the Roundup

sands of people will see the Elks pa

many will be there from all over the

DON 7 PULL OUT
THE GRAY HAIRS
A Few Applications Of a Simple
Remedy viii Bring Back
= the Natural Color

sPull out one gray hair and a dozen
will take its place'' is an old saving.
which is, to great extent, true, If no
steps are taken to stop the cause. When
gray hairs appear it is a sign that Ma
ture needs assistance. 1t is Natures
call for help. Gray hair, dull, lifeless
hair, or hair that is falling out, is not
necessarily sign of advancing age, for
there are thousands of elderly people
with perfect heads of hair without a
single streak of gray.
When gray hairs come, or when the
hair seems to be lifeless or dead, some
good, reliable hair-restoring treatment
should be resorted to at once. Special
lists say that one of the best prepara-
tons to use is the old-fashioned "sage
tea" which our grandparents used. The
best preparation Of this kind is Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, prep
aration of domestic sage and SULPHUR.
scientifically compounded with later dis.
covered hair tonics and stimulants, the
whole mixture being carefully balanced
and tested by experts.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is clean and
wholesome and perfectly harmless. 1t
refreshes dry, parched hair, removes
dandruf and gradually restores faded
or gray hair to its natural color. q
sDon't delay another minute. Start
using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur at
once and see what a difference few
days treatment will make in your hair.
This preparation is offered to the
public at fifty cents q bottle, and is
recommended and sold by all druggists.

THE REALM FEMININE

Shredded chocolate cocoanut, which
is bought already prepared, makes
tasty addition to different kinds of
salad.
Turnips are liked better by many
persons IL they are parboiled and
drained before the final cooking A
little potato added to mashed turnips
is pleasing variety.
When postcard photographs curl

People who have trouble with SAN
dal rubbers breaking where the mar
row strip goes around the back of
the foot may make them wear a
much longer time by using adhesive
plaster. This comes in narrow strips,
and will stick forever to the rubber
If put across the break. 1t saves
rubber bills.
When running dates, figs or raisins
through the food chopper add a few
drops of lemon juice to prevent the
fruit from clogging the chopper.
When a fabric loses its color in
washing it may frequently be restor-
ed by sponging the material with am
monia and water. If this fails, vine-
gar may be effectual.
When the mayonnaise separates in
the making add a little of the
white of the egg and continue
adding the other ingredients. In
almost every case the separation will
be overcome.
Dried wormwood, which may be
had at the drug stores, is an excel
lent protection against moths when
putting winter clothing away. 1t
should be scattered lavishly between
the folds and each article wrapped in
a newspaper before packing.
Though steam heat is cleaner gen.
orally than a furnace, it will soil the
curtains and walls much more, espe
cially if the radiators are placed close
to the walls or under the windows.
Drowned flour makes delicious
brown gravies. Put it in a pie plate
and set on top of the stove or in a
very hot oven. When it begins to
brown it should be constantly stirred
until it is brown all through.

tire, This seems like the most plaus-
ible explanation OF the affair.
That the plan is doomed to failure
regardless of what forces may be
back of it's a foregone conclusion
Al this late day President Taft could
not well declined to run II he wished
to do so. For him TO withdraw now
would be to admit that everything the
Roosevelt men have said about him
and his followers was true. II would
be humiliation such as no president
of the United states has ever endured
and such as no big public man is at
all likely TO bring upon himself of his
own accord.
The fact that such a move as this
should be even dreamed OF shows the
distraction in the republican party and
the havoc into which some politici-
ans have been thrown by the fear of
defeat. The elephant is sick and Is
getting no better fast.

AN APPEALING PRAYER.

While they were on a strike recent
ly the girls of Kalamazoo corset
manufacturing company offered a
prayer three times each day. It is
given as follows in the Woman's
Journal:
20 God, our Father, you, who are
generous, who said, ASK and ye shall
receive we, your children, humbly
beseech you to grant that we may re-
ceive enough wages to clothe and feed
our bodies, and just a little leisure,
o Lord, to give our souls a chance to
grow.
Our employer, who has plenty,
has denied our request. He has mis-
used the law to help him crush us;
but we appeal to you, our God ana
Father, and to your laws, which are
stronger than the laws made by man.
20 Christ, who waited through the
long night in the Garden of Gethse-
name for one of your followers who
was to betray you, who in agony for
US didst say to your disciples will
you not watch one hour with me?'
give strength to those who are now
on picket duty, not to feel too bitterly
when those who promised to stand
with us in our struggle betray US.
20 God, we pray you to give to the
fathers and mothers of our strikers a
chance to bring up their helpless lit
tie ones.
You who let Lot and his family
escape from the wicked city of Sodom
won't you please save the girls now
on strike? Help us to get a living
wage.
20 Lord, who llnowest the sparrow's
fall, won't you help us to resist when
the modern devil who has charge of
our work takes advantage of our pow
erty to lead US astray? Sometimes,
o Lord, it is hard. Hunger and cold
are terrible things, and they make us
weak. We want to do right. Help US
to be strong.
20 God, we have appealed to the
ministers, We have appealed to the
public, we have appealed to the press
But if all these fail us in our need
we know that you will not fail US.
Grant that we may win this strike,
and that the union may be strong, so
that we may not need to cry so often,
Lord, deliver us from temptation
I'VE ask this, Lord. for the sake of
the little children, helpless and suf-
fering; for the girls who may some
day be mothers of children, and for
those girls who dislike sin, but are
forced into it through poverty.
o Christ, who didst die on the cross,
we will try to ask you to forgive
those who would crush us. for perhaps
they do not know what they do.
"All this we ask in the name of the
lcwly Carpenters Son. Amen"
If they did not win their strike
then they may we'll conclude there
is no virtue in prayer as q strike
w weapon for their appeal was enough
to touch the heart of Hindu idol.
