BELOW ZERO
IS NOT VERY COLD

Mr.. R. NJ. White & Son, Mexico,M Mo.
Dear Editors.
Carter, Montana, 3-IS-15-As !
have not written you this winter, l
win now try to tell you what | think
Of Montana.
We have had a fine winter, not very
cold; Is degrees below has been the
coolest We are in a mountain valley
so it does not get as cold here as in
other places not near as far south.
The weather today is like May wealth
er,-doors and windows open and no
fire.
There is a good prospect for a
bumper crop this year. Lots of mois-
ture and a large acreage of winter
wheat and there will be lots of sod
broken this coming season and put in
flax or spring wheat.
! have a homestead about thirty
miles west of Carter. Filed on it the
10th of last December. We will move
to it next week, and expect to put in
at least forty acres this spring. We
are well pleased with this country,
and | don't believe that the old say
ing "they all come back, is true in
u case; at least not for a few years
anyway.
Last year wheat made from is to
81 bushels per acre; oats 10 to 65;
fax, 5 to Is, and all other small grains
in proportion. Very little corn grown
here yet 1t won't do well on this
soil.
After it has been farmed for three
or four years in wheat, then corn
don't go bad. One field / know of
made about 25 bushels per acre.
Have been getting my paper reg
ularly and don't wish to miss a single
copy, as it's like a letter from home,so
please change my address from Car
ter, Montana, to Button, Montana,
and oblige.
Your friend,
c. o. Juelfs,
button, Montana.

FOLK BEING TALKED Of
FOR A SENATORSH|P

jefferson City, March "details
became known here Tuesday of a Sc
cret gathering of Folk" Democrats in
st. Louis Saturday and Sunday, at
tended by several members of the leg
islsture, at which the political situat-
ion was discussed. The significance
the meeting will assume remains to
be seen.
Ex-Governor Folk was solicited to
get into the race for United States
senator. He also was discussed in
Connection with the governorship. But
is was said after the conference that
if he ran for anything it would be for
the Senate.
Frank P. Walsh of Kansas City was
mentioned both as candidate for gov-
rho and for the state supreme court.
He was not at the conference. Other
possible candidates were discussed.
The conference is said to have
grown out of the feeling that the
Democratic party had slipped back in
to control of the old reactionary ring.
1t was pointed out that an effort was
being made to strike down the prim-
airy and to revive race track gamb-
ling and that the railroads were busy
again in the legislature.
1t was said Folk declined to give a
definite answer to the conference
whether he would run for senator.
He said, it is reported here, that if
he ran it would be on a platform of
government ownership of the rail-
ways and city ownership of municipal
utilities.
1t is said hat every congressional
district was represented in the confer
enee Five members of the legisla-
ture attended.

BILL PROVIDES
QUARANTINE OF
WHITE PLAGUE
Measure Gains Support of DIR.
in. Hurry and Physicians
Law Would Require Reg
istratiOn.

What is believed to be one OF the
most important bills introduced this
season, and one which will receive
widespread support from medical men,
was a measure presented by Repre-
sentative Newman T. Miller of Koko-
mo, providing for the registration and
quarantining of tuberculosis patients.
This bill would place tuberculosis in
the same class with other contagious
diseases, such as smallpox, diphtheria
and scarlet fever.
Would Abolish Boards.
Public health experts in Indiana for
many years have been urging the quar-
antine of tuberculosis as the only ef-
fective means of preventing the spread
of the disease. The Miller bill would
provide that tuberculosis patients
would be kept in quarantine until the
attending physician and health author
tiles decided that it is wise to sus-
pend the order. DR.. ]. N. Hurty, ac-
cording to Representative Miller, has
ndorsed the bill.

.NOhR TO INTRODUCE
new DANCE STEPS
Plans Calisthenic Drill for
Gymnastic Festival at Coli
scum, May s.

The gymnastic festival given by the
children of the Richmond schools, un-
der the direction Of Physical Director
Robert Nohr. will be held in the Coli
scum. Saturday, May 8.
1t was originally intended to hold
the May Festival out of doors this
year, and have all the children take
part in the exercises. but satisfactory
seating arrangements could not be
made at either the ball park or at
Reid Field. Mr.. Nohr said today that
about 900 children would take part.
The program will include many new
drills. Calisthenic exercises perfected
by Mr.. Nohr and set to broken time
will be given. The movements in this
drill are very graceful and the time
period between each change is suffi-
cient to allow of exact precision in
perfecting it. The girls of the third
and fourth grades will present a SER
les of folk dances.
This demonstration is intended to
show the scope of the gymnastic train
ing that is given in the Richmond
schools.

CLUB WILL CONSIDER
TEACHERS PENSIONS
School Board and instructors
Object to Measures Pro-
posed in House.

A meeting of the educational COM
mittee of the Commercial club to dis
cuss the teachers pension bill will be
held tomorrow at 1880 o'clock.
The committee probably will take
stand for kind of teachers pension
bill which will cause the teacher to
pay most of the money received later
in pensions. Members object to the
bills in legislature, and the school
bard members also object to some
phases of 1t.
The idea of the committee is to de-
duct from each teachers salary a small
amount each month. In year or
two this would amount to little. but
at the end of fifteen or twenty years
with compound interest, the fund
would be large enough SO that the state
funds would not be depleted each year
in filling out pensions, as they would
be under the bill now before the legis-
lature.
The committee will take up other
legislation regarding schools.
