No Harm in BELIEVING.

Let us believe that the year 1914
will be big, prosperous year. 1t may
aot be, but there is no harm in believ.
ing that it will be, and for our own
great section the natural prophecy is
that it will be.
We have an abundance Of early
snow which will not only supply but
conserve water for irrigation
We shall have more acres titled and
should raise greater crops.
According to the rotation Of fruit
seasons, this should be one for a full
crop. Let us hope that it will also be
one for a favorable market.
Stock should do well, because there
should be better range.
With it all, the general indications
are in our favor.

The principal species OF trees on
the Battlement mesa national forest
are Engelmann spruce. Alpine fir ani

and Alpine fir nearly always occur in
mixed stands. which is characteristic
OF these two species. There is also
some Douglas fir on the forest. which
is by far the best timber found there,
but it is in small quantities. Much
more OF 1t could be used to advantage.

About the Future

AS the prospects for sugar factory
seem to be again drifting into thin
air, it is we'll to consider what else
there is il store.
If the beet yield must be lowered
to accommodate the sugar market,
then the beet grower must consider
what it is best for him to raise in the
place of beets.
A beet sugar man over in the Ar
kansas valley says the farmer who can
not figure out a profit for himself on
ten tons of IS beets to the acre is
no good.
This is no more than crop of al
falfa is worth, however, and not as
much as a crop of potatoes or grain
is worth, with a fair yield and favor
able market.
AS a matter of fact, that estimate
places beet growing just about the
same as money yield crop, as the
average of other crops raised upon
our valley and mesa lands, while the
beet crop is perhaps the most expen-
sive Of all to handle.
In the place OF building a sugar
factory every other week, we might
give publicity to our other resources
and get people interested in prospect
ing our oil and gas fields. We have
great coal fields to be further devel-

Casualties In Coal Mines.

Montana coal mines gathered toll
of twelve lives during the year just
past and have been responsible for the
injury of 50, according to the annual
report of State Coal Mine Inspector
Sanderson, which has been submitted
to Governor Stewart
The coal mines of this state en-
ployed 1854 miners during the year
just past. Calculations made by Mr..
Sanderson show that the death rate
for each 1000 men employed is 1927
while the per cent injured seriously
per 1000 men was IA.
These figures are particularly in
teresting at this time in view of the
recent report of DR.. Joseph A. Holmes,
director of the bureau of mines at
Washington, which stated that 1851
men were killed in the United States
during the same period and probably
100000 miners injured. the death rate
per 1000 men being 3.49. Montana,
therefore, is slightly better than the
general average of the entire country.

Myers Hat Is In the Ring.

Butte, Dec. Ex-senator Henry L..
Myers has announced his candidacy
to succeed himself at the democratic
primaries to be held a year from next
August. The announcement was made
in letters sent out from Washington
and received yesterday by friends of
Senator Myers in Montana. He will
make the run, he states, on his re-
cord as a consistent supporter of the
policies of President Wilson.
The announcement of Senator Myers
at this time may be considered by
some as coming very early, with the
primaries so far away, but he was
called upon to declare himself one way
or the other by the other possible can
didates.
Some time ago, a rumOr became cur
rent among politicians that Senator
Myers expected to retire from the
senate TO accept a position on the fed
eral bench. AS a result of these ru-
mors, which were accredited at that
time. number Of possible candidates
to succeed him were mentioned,
among others, Congressman John NJ.
Evans. who was reelected to congress
at the recent election.
