SPEAKER CLARK THINKS
BORAH THE NOMINEE

A Washington dispatch to the
Statesman says that Speaker Champ
Clark in his recent Baltimore speech,
in which he inferentially criticised
President Wilson, and renewed ex-
preston OF his enmity towards Secre-
tary Bryan, ventured to predict that
Senator Borah of Idaho will be the
Republican nominee for president in
1916. He describes Senator Borah as
"one of the greatest members of the
senate" and his prediction that the
Idaho senator will head the next Re-
publican ticket was greeted with loud
cheers. The Baltimore banquet was
a non-partisan affair attended by the
business men of the town, and while
one large faction was enthusiastic in
its applause of the speaker, another
large faction was equally enthusiastic
over Senator Borah.

GREAT WARRIOR
DIES At HEADQUARTERS

The death of Field Marshal
Earl Roberts, of the English
army, which occurred Saturday
evening, November ii, at the
headquarters of the British ex-
peditionary forces in France, was
extremely sudden. He was in
his usual good health when he
left England Wednesday with
his daughter, Lady Aileen Rob-
erts, and his son-in-law Major
Levin. The party had rough
trip crossing the channel, but the
aged general felt no i'll effects
and went through with his pro-
gram on the continent. In fact,
he was about to return home
when death occurred.
Earl Roberts had motored to
the British bases and camps, had
reviewed the Indian troops and
had conferred with the leading
officers. It was not until about
dinner time Friday evening that
he complained of a slight chill.
AS he was subject to trif1ing
chest troubles, he followed his
usual course and went to bed
early. AS his temperature in
creased, medical men were called
in and pronounced his condition
critical. They relieved the gen.
eral of his pain and he fell
asleep. His death occurred dur
ing sleep.

EFFORT TO ABOLISH
GAME WARDEN'S OFFICE

An effort to abolish the game
warden's department and trans
fer the duties to the sheriffs of
the several counties will be made
at the coming session of the leg
islature, according to Joseph
Kirschwing of Great Falls, who
was in Helena Saturday, says
the Independent.
The game warden's depart
ment is all right when the pur-
pose for which it was created is
observed, but when this purpose
is lost sight of and and it simply
becomes a big spoke in apolitical
machine, it is time for it to be
wiped out, said Mr.. Kirschwing.
He added that men are touring
Montana at the present time
working up an agitation for the
abolishment of the department.
In addition to the game warden,
there are about tWenty-three
deputy wardens. The expense
of it's maintenance does not affect
the general taxpayers, but only
hunters and fishermen. All men,
citizens of Montana, who hunt
or fish, are required to obtain
license costing one dollar. Non
residents and aliens pay more,
and this money is used for the
upkeep of the department.
One plan advocated by the
opponents of the department is
that the sheriffs be required to
perform the duties of game war;
den and that the license money
be diverted into a road fund.
Several candidates for the leg
islature made abolishment of the
game Warden's Office one of the
planks upon which they ran. So
far as is known not one of these
candidates was elected.
MIR. Kirschwing, who appar-
emily is greatly opposed to the
continuance of the warden's Of
flee, is a Walsh democrat. He
has always been at outs with the
Stewart faction of the party, and
is loud spoken of in his criticisms
Of the alleged subordination of
the governor of the real duties
and obligations of the game
warden's department to fur
therance of the Stewart political
machine.

MEASURING HAY
I. IN THE STACK

Bozeman, Montana, Nov. IL
Numerous inquiries have beenre-
ceived at the Montana State col
lege about the legal method Of
measuring hay in the stack. Chap
ter 81 Of the 1907 Session laws Of
Montana gives the following reg
ulation which prescribe the man.
ner of measuring hay in the stack
to determine tonnage:
-Four hundred twonty-two
(422) cubic feet shall constitute a
ton of clean, native, blue joint
lay, after thirty days and up to
three months settlement in
stack; but when the same shall
have been over six months in the
stack, three hundred and forty
(340) cubic feet shall be consid-
cred a ton.
AS to all other kinds Of hay,
after the same shall have settled
in the stack from sixty days up,
five hundred and twelve (512)
cubic feet shall constitute ton
of alfalfa or rough slough grass,
after the same shall have been i'm
the stack thirty (30) days andu
to one Q) year. Four hundred
and fifty (450) cubic feet shall
constitute ton of clean timothy
and clover after the same shall
have been in the stack thirty days
and up to one year.
Making measurements Of hay
in the stack, the following IS
hereby made the legal method of
measurement, to-wit:: The width
and length of the stack shall be
measured, and the distance from
the ground against one side of
the stack to the ground against
the other side of the stack, di-
rectly over and opposite, shall be
taken in linear feet and inches,
and then the width shall be SUBJ
tracted from the measurement
over the stack, as above indicat-
ed, the result divided by two, and
the result so obtained multiplied
by the width, and the result thus
obtained multiplied by the length,
which will give the number of
cubic feet contained in the stack,
and the tonnage shall thereupon
be determined by dividing the
total number of cubic feet by the
number of cubic feet allowed un-
der the provisions of this Act for
a ton.

ABOUT THE mouth:
AND-F0OT DISEASE
q

Although much has been pub
lished recently about the serious
spread of the foot-and- mouth dis
ease throughout the United States
and of the prompt action taken
by this and other states in quar-
antining against shipments of
stock, very few people know any,
thing about the real nature of
the disease as it affect stock and
a lesser number, perhaps, are
aware that the same disease may
be communicated to humans.
1t is believed that the disease
started in this country recently
through the infection spread by
imported hides. The national
government took up the fight
against the spread of the malady
Immediately and it is believed
that with the cooperation of all
of the states and the transporta-
tion companies that it can be
stamped out soon, without serious
loss. The season of the year is
favorable for this result. The
disease is much more easily con-
quered in cold than in warm
weather.
The nature of the foot-and-
mouth disease, the animals it at
tacks and some statistics con-
corning other epidemics are fully
set forth in an article by Drs. D.
E. Salmon and Theobald Smith in
a volume on diseases of cattle
published by the bureau of ami
NAL industry, department of agri-
culture. From this article the
following extracts are taken:
Foot-and-mouth disease is also
known as epizootic aphtha, aph-
thous fever, infectious aphtha,
eczema epizootica, and may be
defined as an acute highly con-
tagious fever of a specific nature,
characterized by the eruptions of
vesciles, or blisters, in the mouth,
around the coronets of the feet
and between the toes.
The tremendous ravages of the
disease are seen in the number
and variety of species attacked.
While it may be regarded as es-
sentially a disease of cattle, hogs
would seem to be as easy a prey.
Almost in the same grade of re-
spectivity come sheep and goats.
Horses, dogs, cats and even poul-
try have been victims of the in
fection.
Man himself is not immune,
and the frequency of his infec-
tion by coming in contact with
the diseased animals themselves,
is established by numerous obser-
vations. Children suffer as re-
