SOME DIFFERENCE IN PRICE
OF CURRENT COMMODITIES

A circular has been received
from Fort Peck locating agency
extolling the country which is to
be opened to settlement in east
4ern Montana in May. From this
circular some interesting facts
are learned, among which are
that the cost of living is much
higher in that portion of Mon
tana than on the Flathead. A
comparison of prices will be in
teresting.
The more staple commodities
The Ronan pioneer. [volume] (Ronan, Mont.) 1910-1970, 1914-02-27

When it comes to fuel, there is
a difference in favor of Fort Peck.
Coal, an unknown quantity here,
can be had there for the digging
or delivered in town at $40 per
ton. Aside from this and heavy
articles like farm machinery, such
as sulky plows, etc., our people
are getting everything they buy
cheaper than those living there.
Farm machinery freight rates
are higher to Roman by at least
70 cents per hundred and the
price at retail is less after con-
sidering the freight item here.
Taking everything into con-
sideration, our retail merchants
are making less profit on their
goods than those on the Fort
Peck, where they are on a main
line of railroad and have ano
wagon freight to add to the cost
of their goods.

a NY one Of the three examples OF
"a fine hats which are shown here is
of sort to make the observer of
"class" In millinery turn to look twice
at 1t. Hats are as numerous as roses
and the pretty ones inspire an admira-
ton as frank and untiring as that
given to the flowers. Here are three
totally dissimilar, each vying with
the others, as an example of excel
lence in the milliners' art, and all
far above the average in point Of dis
tinction in style.
The largest of the three has a
rather small crown with soft top,
garnished with ribbon band, which
terminates in small fiat bow at the
side. The brim is wonderfully grace
full, curving upward slightly and
widening at the left side. 1t is a
shape better suited to mature women
than to the youthful wearer on whom
1t is pictured
The twotoned, long, outstanding
plume of ostrich at the front is cal
culated to make one wonder at the
dexterity Of the dyers and rejoice at
the discrimination Of the trimmer who
has used 1t so effectively.
A small and whaa We call a

'Frenchy" shape, is picturesque and
dressy model, combining a narrow
brim Of velvet and crown OF silver
lace over a vivid satin. The brim
rolls up at the left and droops decid-
edly at the right side, where an in.
dentation breaks its line and adds to
its becomingness. 1t is trimmed with
single metallic rose and finished
with long tie Of handsome mcire
ribbon. This is mounted to the brim
at the left under an odd and pretty
bow.
The curious shape of the third
model catches ones attention. 1t is
beautifully made hat with crown
that has sharp slope upward from
right to left. The velvet covering is
laid on smoothly and piped with
satin, and satin is used for the fac
ing.
The shape serves as a background
upon which a splendid bow of rich
moire ribbon is mounted. The ria-
bon is wired at the edges and the
bow reveals how much of an art It is
to convert straight length of mate
rial into a trimming Of such express
sion.

TsTIE day has come when displays Of
j elegant footwear may be said to
rival displays of jewelry in brilliance.
Judging from the dressy shoes and
slippers which fill the show cases Of
the shoe shops, and those Of depart
ments in the great stores, the adiec-
tives which have been used in de-
scribing gowns and hats will find
themselves associated in the future
with clothing for the feet. It will
require them to convey any idea Of
the daintiness and brilliance that
characterize the newest footW ear for
svening.
Black patent leather combinations
with white kid make up a great num-
Der Of the handsomest slippers. But,
besides .hese, there are combinations
Of bronze, gold and silver with fab
RIGS and slippers of these fancy leath-
ers alone, as well as slippers made Of
fabrics alone. The array is dazzling
and in point of variety bewildering.
Just now there Is liking Tor white
satin on which gold or silver figures
are thrown up In embroidered de-
signs. These are finished with small
but most brilliant buckles OF rhine
stones. Certainly such slippers de-
serve to be called confections in foot
wear. But to get any idea Of the va.
Fiety which confronts the purchaser,
just the display ia single show case
may be described to give clear idea
Of the leading style-feature for this
season,
First there is satin novelty called
the Poinciana slipper. It is a plain.
beautifully shaped model with short
yamp, somewhat pointed toe and
French heel. At the back the satin
extends upward to the ankle, where
it is fastened to velvet band. This
bend encircles the ankle. fastening
with two small pearl buttons at the
side. One may choose this slipper

black satin vamp and white satin
quarters. Very plain, very beautifully
finished and very elegant, the EN-
press is shown in this single combina'
tion.
A third strikingly beautiful black
and-white slipper has black satin
vamp and heel, with quarter of white
satin extended over the instep in a
strap. The edges Of the slipper and
strap are bound with black satin and
this new creation is fastened with a
double buckle Of brilliant rhinestones
at the side. One may have It in ali
black or all white, either Of them
handsome enough but having NOT
quite the snap of black and white and
rhinestone in conjunction.
Next comes quiet model in bronze
kid having tongue embroidered
with bronze beads, and then a tango
tie in bronze laced across the instep
with ribbon which ties about the
ankle. These are to be had in other
materials and colors.
Less showy, a slipper in dull kid 10
exquisiteIy shaped and supplied with
four straps across the instep. The
toe and straps are beaded, This is
made in white or in bronze. with
beads to match. Then comes marvel
in white satin and gold brocade and
after It an array OF plain satin opera
slippers in all the evening colors.
Truly she who is looking for some
thing new and beautiful in slippers
will have no trouble in finding all that
she is looking for. and more, too
For there are other showcases filled
with other slippers.

Tonic Of the Open Air.

There is no better more invigorat.
ing tonic to the man who is compelled
to labor within doors than sunlight
and the open air. This is particularly
true of the green fields and the wood
ed districts of the country where the
air, waited across great open
stretches, is particularly pure and
bracing.
Therefore, the men who labor with
brain or hands, or both, in cities,
should avail themselves of every op-
portunity to HE themselves to the
country, or if they cannot do that, to
the breathing places of the city where
the air is better than along the crowd
ed thoroughfares and where the sun
shine meets with fewer distractions.
Most men, these days, when COM
petition in all lines Of industry and
trade is keen, daily are living a stren-
uous life, putting forth their best
energy, straining such talent as they
possess to accomplish results. When
they feel the strain is too great and
near the breaking point, they should
seek the tonic which instinct pre-
scribes.

EGGS IN STORAGE 40 YEARS
We're Found In Buried Stone Building
Uncovered by Floods on the
Cimarron River.

Topeka.-The foods in the Omar
ron River valley in southwest Kansas
uncovered an old house that the old
est settlers In that territory did not
know ever existed. On the floor Of
the old stone house was found crock
full of eggs, which to all appearances
were perfectly preserved after being
under ground more than 40 years.
The story Of the unearthing of this
old stone house, indicating a settle
fore any one of the present old-timers
knew of it, was reported by w. C.
Millar, a ranchman of Kiowa county,
who recently made trip into Morton
county.
The Cimarron river this spring, in a
sudden freshet, washed away the ranch
building at the old Beatty ranch, at
Point Rocks, in southern Morton
county. The garden adjoining was
also washed out by the flood, the river
current making deep cut there, and
eXcavating the walls of an old stone
house
In the house, when uncovered were
found a good many household utensils
and a crock containing eggs. The
eggs had been Theoretically sealed I'M
der many feet of sand and shele. They
seemed to be just as good as ever.
Mr.. Millar owns big ranch in Bel
videre, in southern Kiowa county. He
formerly owned a place in northern
Barber county, between Sun City and
Lake City, and it was on his land that
the famous Indian council of 1867 was
held at which the treaty with the In
dams was made by General Miles.
Mr. Millar has photographs taken
at the council, which was attended by
many prominent newspaper CORE
spondents of those days. One of the
latter was Henry M. Stanley, later IA
nous as the explorer who discovered
David Livingstone.
THE photographs showed the CORE
spondents all wore tall silk tile hats"
said Mr.. Millar. THAT proved that the
silk hat came into that country before
the cowboy. The cowboy used to re-
sent the silk tiles, but can prove the
tiles were there first. The cowboys
didn't come in until later on

Uvoes Farmers Sell Army Worms.

st. Louis, Mo.-Harry S. Rein, chair
man and assistant secretary of the St.
Louis stock exchange, says that farm
ers in the zone affected by army
worms could reduce their losses great
iy by turning the field pest to profit.
Rein, who is an expert angler, says
there is no better bait than the worm.
1t will tempt trout, Graphic, bass and
wali-eyed pike when these wary fishes
turn up their noses at other varieties
Of real or artificial bait, he says my
suggestion is," said Mr.. Rein recently,
that farmers catch great numbers of
army worms, pack them in cotton
sprinkled with oatmeal and ship them
to points where bait is rare and fish
ing good"
