aiARLOWTON BUSY ALL THE TIME.

The business men of HarlOwtOn, or
some other persons vitality interested,
are becoming renowned for their ac-
tivity in the boosting OF HarlOwton
at all times. They are to be COM
mended for their activity in boosting
for the home town. There would be
better towns and better citizens for
them if all were brought up to believe
in their home town first. last, and all
OF the time. But the idea of llar-
lowt III surreptitiousIy endeavOring
to take nine townships from the Jul
dith Gap school district is something
that has received the Condemnation
OF all people interested in good
schools and the right.
HarlOwton has wanted county divi-
sion for some years past. Judith
Gap affiliated themselves with llar-
lowton in the last fight for county di
vision, but, as was only natural, the
two towns held their own preference
for county seat. uarlowiol is II good
town and has many good and loyal
citizens, but the idea of it's business
men endeavoring to take nine town
ships from the Judith Gap district is
strictly out of question.
Men. women and children, who
will be vitality interested in this mat
ter feel that it is an outrage and
something that should not be toler-
.ated. Petitions have been circulated
in the locality in question praying
the superintendent Of schools to
change the school district boundaries
so that the Harlowton district will
take in the territory up to within
three miles south of Judith Gap.
You ask, why have they done this?
Well. kind reader, there seems to be
several reasons, the most paramount
of which is the one that they want 70
increase the finances OF the Harlow
ton district. They find that under
the existing circumstances the cas-
lest way to bring this about would be
by taking 4 part of Judith Gaps ter
ritory, which is, and is known to be,
the most prolific and best territory
in Meagher county. They also have
in view the new and growing town OF
Okla and the railroad improvements
which are being made there.

TIME Of; CUTTING ALFALFA
Best Rule IL to Harvest Crop Wtrsn
Ore-tenth in Blown.

OVS~tCUSU 0sVWVUs
An old established rule is to cut. al.
falfa when One-tenth iln bloom. AL.
falfa at this stage has 4 higher per-
centage VI protein thar if cut when
older. Thus the hay is richer and
also more palatable. About the time
of bloom the basal shoots are just
starting from the cSuwn and alfalfa
cut at this time ALLOWS the young
shoots to come OH rapidly. When the
alfalfa is cut too early the growth of
the young basal shoots is said to be
delayed. If the hay is cut TOO late
the basal shoots are cut of and the
second growth is severely injured.
When alfalfa is cut at the time OF
one-tenth in bloom it was found that
the total hay yield for the season was
greater than when the cuttings were
made when the hay was in full bloom.
The yield from the first cutting was
larger. but the yield from the next cut.
ting was enough less to more than
offset the increased yield of the first
cutting. When the cutting of alfalfa
is delayed some of the lower leaves
mature and fall off. The leaves form
the richer portion OF the hay and ev.
cry effort should be made to retain
the greatest amount of leaves posi-.
BILE. The tenthin.bloom rule is a pretty
safe one. but it is an easy matter to
examine the crowns of the alfalfa
plants to see il the new shoots are
making q start. II they are II In time

Petitions to the Gear.
In Russia there Is court Of pet1-
lions through which appeals are ad-
dressed to the emperor. The court
was originally founded in the reign Of
Ivan Nv. in the sixteenth century.
When Catherine the Great assembled
the throne she intended to receive all
appeals personally. but the task SOON
passed beyond her powers. The Car
Paul as a young man tried to initiate

large yellow iron box attached to one
Of the ground door windows Of the
Winter palace at st. Petersburg. into
which petirtens were dropped. The
box was periodically opened and the
contents submitted to the czar. This
method of receiving petitions was also
found to be unavoidable. The extent
to which the. subjects of the car avail
themselves OF the courts privileges
may be gathered from the fact that a.
many as tI,.O0O odd petitions have been
