The Ronan pioneer. [volume] (Ronan, Mont.) 1910-1970, 1915-02-05

The newspaper is a most vital
factor in the welfare of any COM
munity.
The job printing business in
connection with newspaper pub
lica tions often is a necessity and
certainly deserving of every sup
port.
The newspaper that works for
welfare of city, county, state and
nation, that comes to the front
in any and every emergency for
the benefit of the people, that
fights many a battle for all citi-
zens, certainly has the right to
expect the support of the people
with the distinct understanding,
by all concerned. always we'll in
mind that such support by no
manner of means implies any
tacit agreement as to newspaper
influence.
And coming down to brass
tacks along that same line, there
are some business men right here
in Butte who like to pat their
home newspaper on the back and
praise it when it is making some
fight which happens to benefit
their welfare, and who, without
the home newspaper thus to
fight for them, would stand as
helpless as those persons in ques-
ton always have in other con-
tingencies. but who, for small,
petty reasons, draw back from
the support Of the newspaper
which unselfishly and vigorously
can and does do them the most
good.
There are some persons who
continually prate of wanting JUS
tice from a newspaper, and if
they would give the subject free
and unprejudiced consideration,
they would find that the news.
paper gives them absolutely fail
treatment and vastly kinder con
sideration than they ever thinl
of according the newspaper. -

MORE PROFITS
FOR FARMERS

in the number in attendance and
in the interest shown, especially
in the number in attendance from
outside of Bozeman, the farmers
week at the State college closed
last Saturday evening. Every
part of the state was repre-
sented at the weeks sessions.
Among the most successful
features were the lectures and
demonstrations in judging and
handling livestock horses, beef
cattle, dairy cattle, sheep, hogs,
and poultry. Especially the
demonstrations with good speci-
mems of the living animals al
ways attracted a crowd, and the
lecture halls and judging pavil-
lion were regularly crowded.
The work and lectures of Prof.
Thomas Shaw were especially
enjoyed.
Another very successful fea-
ture was the illustrated work in
home science, especially in cook
ing, done by Mrs. Nellie Kenzie
Jones of Wisconsin, and men,
bers of the State college exten-
sion staff, Miss Katherine Jensen
and Miss Augusta Evans. These
ladies performed the cooking
operations and described while
they lectured, and allowed the
spectators to prove the products
by the eating. This last was al
ways a popular feature.
The first days feature was a
discussion Of the marketing Of
farm products, and Prof. C. E.
Bassett of the U. S. department
OF agriculture was a very force
full and suggestive speaker in
this, his special line. He left
many valuable suggestions with
the farmers.
One of the features which
made the work of the week ef-
fective was a liberal use of Ian
tern slides to illustrate many of
the lectures, whereby many mat
ters otherwise obscure were
made perfectly clear. Charts
and diagrams had been prepared
also to illustrate many OF the
lectures given by the local ex-
perts, and these helped to make
their work intelligable and inter-
esting.
Lectures by DR.. O. H. Benson,
in charge of the u. S. depart
ment of agriculture work among
boys and girls, and by Prof. W.
S. Thornber of Lewiston, Idaho,
on the "City Fellow in Country
Places" were particularly en-
joyed by the audiences.
Four important organizations
of the state took advantage of
the farmers week to hold an
nual meetings in Bozeman, per-
nitting their members to attend
some Of the work of farmers
week. These were the Montana
Veterinary Medical association,
the Montana bookkeepers, the
Montana county superintendent
of public instruction, and the
Gallatin Sheepbreeders' associ-
alton.
One of the most interesting
features of the last days ses-
sions was the meat cutting de-
monstration under the charge of
the department of animal in
dustry, the cutting being done
by John Kiefer, an expert local
butcher. Sandwiches and coffee
were served to the crowd in the
hall at noon where the cutting
took place. The steer and hogs
which were cut up had been
used in the judging demonstra-
tions early in the week, when
estimates had been made of the
weight of dressed meat in each
animal.

The actions of Great Britain and Ger
many in connection with the shipping of
neutrals has in effect abolished rules of
international law that have stood the test
of centuries. The right of neutrals to carry
on commerce has been recognized ever since
barbarism was abolished and the actions Of
two nations ranking high in modern civili-
cation, whereby the seas have been declared
subject to their control and the interest Of
others swept aside, will awaken the world
to a recognition of the ineffectiveness Of all
international rules. The embargo laid on
neutral shipping will make clear for the
future the fact that national rights can be
maintained by force alone 1t is patent
that our civilization, instead of amelioratine
conditions of war, have as matter Of fact
made these conditions more onorous anC
complicated. The rights Of this govern
ment have been absolutely ignored ant
there is no remedy, unless it be through
force of arms. No american will advocat'
force of arms to enforce our rights, henc
the wrongs will 60 on without remedy. Thi
country has felt deep sympathy for Eng
land in the present war, but more liberia
policy was expected from her, and her fail
ure in this respect must in time produce
revulsion in sentiment. Her actions
at least, add color to the charge that sh
!. has made the rights of others subservien
to her own interests.

The Probe Commission now has under

state and proposes to send a special commit
tee to visit the penal farms Of the State OF
Mississippi in order to gain information.
The Commission will find, if it looks at the
subject fairly, that this state has one of the
best systems in the Union for handling con-
victs. This question has given great deal
of trouble to the administrations of the
several states and it is generally conceded
that we have system that is in advance OF

Thefarmers of this parish have enjoyed
very little credit for making this crop and
very little money has so far been borrowed
to make it, far less than was ever used up TO
this time of the year. There is an object
lesson in the instance which we hope Will be
taken home to every planter in the PARISH
Heretofore credit has been too easy and the
farmer has in consequence been extravaganza
and used borrowed money that he might
have gotten along without. Diversified
crops and more rigid economy will work out
the farmers troubles in time. We hope
that the present year will be the beginning
of his salvation.

Governor Hall, it is claimed, will call
the special session of the legislature for
some early date in April. The Governor,
up to the present time, has been reticent in
regard to the date of this call and has re-
fused to give out any information as to the
scope of the work that he will lay before the
Legislature. The failure to make appropri-
atoms makes the session necessary and the
general opinion is that the Governor has
under consideration tax reform measures
and probably has in contemplation the. call
ing of constitutional convention. He has
delayed the call, no doubt, to feel public
sentiment on the question of calling the
convention. -
