LAND LAWS A CONFUSING
MASS OF EXECUTIVE ORDERS

Representative Scott Ferris of
Oklahoma, chairman of the house
committee on public lands, in an
address before the international
dry farming congress at Tulsa,
criticised the administration of
affairs in the interior depart
ment and assailed federal land
laws as a "jargon of inconsis-
tencies that retard progress and
development"
Our land laws are crude in
many respects, irreconcilable, in
efficient, without uniformity, con-
fusing to the brain of the settler
and impossible of Interpretation
by the layman. Mr.. Ferris de-
clared. Most of our so-called
land laws are confusing mass
of executive orders, rulings, in
terpretations and decisions made
by bureau chiefs and clerks in
the various branches of the in
terror department.
I'm my service in congress we
have had four secretaries of the
inserior, Ballinger, Garfield,
Fisher and Lane. The views of
these four men have differed on
policy, on questions of law and
construction, and many of the
decisions made actually are OBJ
structive to the settlement of the
west and blight on the develop
ment of the unbounded resources
of a nation.
ION the question of manage
ment of our public lands, the last
two national administrations have
been wandering in maze of con-
lecture which is blighting to both
East and West. Z"
Mr.. Ferris urged that land
withdrawn by the government
for exploitation for minerals but
found to contain none should be
quickly restored to settlement.
"Conservationists who believe
in fighting fraud and irregular
dealing are among those whom
we will all finally enlist" Mr..
Ferris continued. But the con-
servationists who believe in a
policy of non-use and oppose
well-regulated use and develop
ment of our resources, in my
judgment, are without first hand
information as to true condi-
tions."

.OEvERE JACKSON ABLE TO
MAKE TRIP TO M|SSOULA

After eight weeks since being
injured by being dragged by his
horse and sustaining a broken
leg and wrist and a severe injury
to his head, Devere jackson was
able to leave Roman for Missoula,
where he will remain with his
sister Mrs. H. H. Parsons until
able to work again. He arrived
in Missoula last Saturday and a
telephone message says he stood
the trip nicely.
For more than five weeks he
was in a semi-conscious condition
and required the attendance of
a trained nurse night and day.
After about that time he began
to regain his mental equilibrium
and steadily gained every day
until he has fully recovered his
mind and his injuries have healed
in good shape.
His friends are glad to know
that he is his old self again and
congratulate him on his recov-
cry.

Sanitary Stables

Next to- pure bred stock per-
haps the most imperative need
from the standpoint of live stock
production is a sanitary stable.
1t should have water proof floors,
built of some material that will
not absorb the manure and sloped
to drain properly. Cement is
undoubtedly the best of these
and it should be covered with a
Slated board flooring in the stalls
to keep the horses from sleeping
on cold cement and to prevent
slipping.
The question Of bedding is very
important in many ways. Thi:

followed better results cannot be
expected than from the use of
the tanning mill.
Grain to be used for seed
should be allowed to fully ma
ture. If it is necessary to har-
vest grain a little green, it should
be carefully shocked and capped
to allow the seed to fill. 1t is
preferable tn let grain go
through the sweat" in the
stack, instead of risking it's
sweating in the bin. Store grain
where it can be kept dry and un-
mixed, and no not allow it to

function is to keep the horses off
the floors and to absorb manure.
1t is also better for the horses
feet than a hard floor. Wheat or
oat straw is the very best bedding
known, as it is light, dry, warm,
springy and absorptive. Barley
and rice straw should be equally
good if it were not for the
boards" or barred tips of the
green husk which irritate the
horses skin. Marsh hay has
little value, as it is coarse, flat
tens down and absorbs but little
of the liquid manure. Shavings
and tanbark are poor bedding
for horses and no farmer has any
excuse for using them.
Horses should be cleaned very
carefully at this time of the year.
1t is az excellent plan to wash
the mouth, head and legs with
cold water at noon and night. In
some ways the fall work on the
farm is more trying on the horses
than the heavier harvest work. -

STATE GRANGE MEETING
IN B0zEMAN JANUARY 2o.21

State Master O. e. Young of
Great Falls, announces the date
of the annual meeting of the
state grange at Bozeman on
Tuesday and Wednesday, Jan
uary 20 and 81, with the state
college grange.
State Lecturer F. S. Cooley is
preparing a program for the
occasion that will include men of
national reputation. Hon. N. P.
Hull of Michigan, lecturer of the
national grange and chairman of
the congressional committee is
expected.
Farmers organization is one
of the most important rural
problems of the day, and much
attention is being bestowed upon
it's solution. A helpful organ
ization of farmers that will Co
operate with business organiza-
tions to mutual advantage rather
than antagonize other enter
prises is desired. The grange is
an organization that has stood
the test for two generations, and
has eliminated features which
experience has shown to be i'm
practical. Its great benefit has
come through social and educa-
tional work, the latter tending
to self teaching which endures.
1t is the most conservative,
the largest, and the best farm
ers' organization in the world.
Farmers week at the agricul-
tural college at Bozenan begins
on January q, following the
grange meeting. A great gath

bATEMAN AND WIFE
IN AUTO ACCIDENT

T. l.. Bateman and wife of Ra-
valli, were both injured in an
auto accident last Saturday about
mile above that town. They
had been to Missoula in the ma
chine and were returning home
and the rain had made the road
pretty slippery and Mr.. Bate
man was at the wheel learning
to drive, with Bert Ethel teach
ing him, and when they struck
a grade the machine left the
road and turned over a couple of
times before it finally stopped,
with Mr.. Bateman underneath
the car but not seriously hurt.
Mrs. Bateman sustained dis
located shoulder and she was
taken to the hospital at Missoula,
but at last accounts she was get
ting along nicely. Bert Ethel
was bruised about the body but
not seriously. Mr.. Bateman's S
escape from death is miraculous,
being under the car when it
stopped and only received a
scratch or two. The machine
went through a wire fence be-
fore it stopped and the occupants
all had a narrow escape.
The auto was not injured so it
would not run, and after being
righted was driven to RavalIi by

Another of those mysterious
early morning fires occurred
Wednesday morning about 2::3O,
which completely destroyed the
blacksmith shop owned by Cash
Coulter in Scarce addition north
OF the Big Store.
When discovered the entire
interior was ablaze and nothing
was saved. Parties passed along
the street to The south of the
building as late as 1:3O that
morning and none of them no.
ticed anything which would in
dicate a fire smouldering or
otherwise. 1t was all dark in
the building at that time. About
an hour afterwards the entire
building was ablaze and it was
impossible to do more than watch
it burn.
This building was new one,
having been completed only a
short time ago, and was insured
along with the contents for $500.
The loss to Mr.. Coulter in dollars
and cents will be small but il
puts him out of business at a
time of the year when business
is usually pretty good in a black
smith shop.
There seems to be a fire-bug
in our midst who times his or her
efforts in this line almost to the
minute. This makes four fires
of unknown origin in Roman dur
ing the past two years, which
have broken out at about the
same time. First came the burn
ing of the Harry Burland black
smith shop, then the Denison
lumber yard, followed by the
Pablo ice house, and now Cash
Coulter is the victim. 1t is a
difficult matter to find motive
for these fires and this fact in
creases the uneasiness of every
one in business in Roman.
Mr.. Coulter has now suffered
the loss of his place of business
twice within Is months and he
thinks jinx has him. He says
he knows there was no way in
which the fire could have been
smouldering, as he left every
thing in proper shape when he
closed up for the day.

Saving Seed

1t often happens that, in a
field of grain, parts of the field
produce grain of a better quality
than do other parts. This may
be due to the condition of the
soil, to rust, or to lodging. 1t
will often pay to cut and thresh
these best patches by themselves,
and keep this seed by itself,
from which to separate seed for
sowing. Some farmers prefer to
grow small patches from select
seed under favorable conditions.
These patches can be hand-picked
and kept free from weeds. Un-
less very careful methods of Sc

PROPOSE GOVERNMENT AID
CONSTRUCTION OF ROADS

On October 9th there was in
troduced simultaneously in the
Senate and House by Senator
Myers and Congressman Evans,
respectively, a bill to grant to
the states of Arizona, Colorado,
Idaho, Montana, New Mexico,
Nevada, Utah and Wyoming each
$50, 600 acres of unreserved, non-
mineral, surveyed public lands
for the construction, repair and
maintenance of public roads.
Before this measure was intro
duced Senator Myers and Con-
gressman Evans discussed the
matter thoroughly and agreed
upon concerted action.
This is not the first bill that
has been submitted to congress
for federal aid in the construc-
ton of good roads. Since the
beginning of the special session
nearly ten different bills propos-
ing grants of land to the Rocky
Mountain states have been intro

house. Some were referred by

report, but in each case the de-

mitchell AND SULzER
Win IN NEW YORK

Elections were held Tuesday
in several eastern states, COVER
nors being elected in Massachu-
setts, New Jersey and Virginia.
The democratic candidates won in
each state, the the two former
by reason of a division of the
opposition between the republi-
cans and progressives.
In Massachusetts the demo-
cratic candidate won by a plur-
ality of $4,000, hut the combined
vote would have showed him
under by almost twice that. The
same prevailed in New Jersey.
In New York City the fusion
candidates for city and county
offices were elected over the
Tammany candidates by large
majorities, Mitchell, for mayor
defeating Mccall, Tammany, by
over 100000 majority. VIM. Sui
ger the impeached governor was
elected to the legislature by over
1000 majority, receiving more
votes than his two opponents
combined. The New York legis-
lature will be republican, revis-
ing the completion of the pre-
sent assembly. Press dispatches
indicate that the republicans
made surprising gains all over
New York state.
In many of the other eastern
states minor county officers were
elected and many of the principal
cities elected mayors, some 60
ing one way and some another.
In Maryland a U. S. senator
was elected in the person of
Blair Lee, democrat, who de-
feated Thomas Parran, republi-
can, and former senator George
L. Wellington, progressive.
The defeat of Tammany will
be pleasing news to all lovers
of good government, and the
attitude of Charles F. Murphy,
the Tammany leader. in the Sui
zer impeachment trial probably
contributed greatly to the result.
1t may mark the breaking up of
a regime in that city which
would be to the great good of
the city in general. President
Wilson lent his personal aid in
defeating the Tammany candi-
date, as John Purroy Mitchell is
one of his personal friends.
There is not much encourage
ment to either party in the
result. While the democrats re-
tain control of the states where
governors were elected, it was
by reason of the division in the
republican party and not from
any other cause. 1t simply
shows that with the breach
healed the result would be en-
tirely different.
