Indians Taking a
Change Of Heart
Said to Desire Opening Of
Strip on Eastern End
of Reserve

Discussing the present status
OF the Blackfeet Indian reserva-
tion with the Pioneer Press,
Manager j. C. Haines of the
Libby Lumber Co. expressed
the regret that such a fine tract
of farming land as that which
lies on the reserve west aud
south of Cut Bank, nearly all
under the ditch and ready for
rapid development, should lie
idle, doing no one a penny's
worth of good. Every person in
this north country who desires
to see the country developed
will heartily share this view,
but it's a long, long way to
Washington and when you do
get there you'll find that respon-
sible public opinion on matters
like that under discussion gets
badly twisted in transit. One
Senator outside the state was
able to kill the movement for
the opening of this strip in the
last session of Congress, but we
learn that after due deliberation
the more intelligent Indians on
the Blackfeet have concluded
that it would be to their benefit
to dispose of this strip and with
the proceeds purchase more
stock and develop the business
fOTswhiah most Of them are the
best fitted. If this be true, the
next session of Congress may
be prevailed upon to take fa-
vorable action.

Tribute to Galbreath

Many tributes to the worth Of
the late John Galbreath have
been paid by residents of the
Reservation who visited Cut
Bank this week. Speaking Of
the many virtues of the late
we'll known stockman, Jas. A.
Perrine epitomized this feeling.
THE Galbreath home was a
free hostelry to all who passed
that way and the hospitality,
while not ostentatious, was gen.
timely cordial at all times. The
weary traveller from across the
Canadian border, the nomadic
fellows looking for employment
on the reclamation projects, the
Indians from near and far were
made welcome under the Gal-
breath roof. John Galbreath
was a man given to but few
words but what he said counted.
He was square in his dealings
with the Indians. inclining to
generosity when he could cas-
lily have had the better of a
deal. His money was made in
clean and honorable ways and
his memory will long be rever-
ed by the people of the Reser-
vation."

IMMENSE QUANTITY
OF WHEAT TIED UP
There viii Still, However, Be a
Heavy Deficit Of the Worlds
Normal Crop.

A grain expert who has been witch
ing the grain markets and the worlds
grain fields for number of yearS,
says:-
There is at the present time about
two billion bushels Of wheat, the pro
duction of the countries at war, tiee
up. This is about one-half the worlds
total production OF wheat, which 10
four billion bushels. One writer ar
gues that, granting that the warning
nations produce a one-half crop In
the coming year, a deficit Of one bill.
lion bushels will still be shown. The
three countries upon which the filling
Of this deficit OF one billion bushels
will rest are the United States, Can.
ada. and Argentina. The combined
output OF these three countries Is only
l,249, 900, 900, their exportable surplus
would Of course be much less. so it
can easily be seen that the question
is not one to be easily solved and It
behooves all the above countries 10
increase their respective productions
as much as they possibly can, for
when the war is over and trade begins
to re-establish itself and the nations
undergo a process OF rehabilitation,
the demand for all breadstuffs will be-
enormous.
During the three years followins
the declaration OF peace the farmers
Of all neutral wheat-producing coun.
tries will have ample opportunity to
market their wheat at good prices,
and 1t may safely be assumed that tho
demand will be heavy. Canada has
an unusual opportunity in that she
has the natural environment for wheat
production; she Is under the protec.
ton of the British flag, and she VIII
not be molested upon the water to
any great extent; she can increase
her acreage and greatly enhance her
production. In other words, she can
become a far greater wheat-producng
country than she is at the present
time"
II the summing-up as made by this eX-
pert be correct, is there not the very
best reason for the continued effort
that Is being made by the Government
Of the Dominion Of Canada to secure
settlers on the productive vacant
lands of the country? Not only are
these lands capable of producing high
class wheat in large quantities, but
cattle, pigs, sheep and horses also do
well. The climate is admirably suited.

GRUESOME GOLF IN MEXICO
Drive on War-Scarred Links Spoiled
by Body of Soldier Slain in
Battle.

Golfers of the Mexican Country
club, who were recently barred from
their games for two weeks because
the Carranza and Zapata forces were
using the links for a battle-ground,
had an unusual experience, when, on
the day after the retreat of the sol
diers, they resumed play.
Notwithstanding the links had
been torn up by shells, all went wen
with the game until the driveoff from
the seventh tee had been followed up
to the green, It was then that the
man who had the best lie waved ex-
citedly to his companions to hurry on.
They thought that he had holed out
with his midiron, but found that his
discomposure was caused by the fact
that he could not use his putter Be.

SOME FLOWER HINTS

Set out Iris in September and they
will flower next summer.
Hellebore busted on cabbage plants
while they are wet with dew will keeI
the cabbage worms down.
Late pruning induces new growth
on plants and trees, rendering them
susceptible to injury from the winter
cold. The time for pruning is during
the winter or early spring, before the
buds start
Look at the stored roots and bulbs.
If any sign of decay remove the
rotton spot and cover quickly with
powdered charcoal.
Gas-heated rooms, unless well venti.
lated, are bad for plants.
All faded or fading blossoms should
be cut from every bush.
Fruit trees are especially benefited
by this treatment. The fruit will i'm
prove by the check in leaf growth.
Climbing roses and vines can be
made to follow your will, if you will
give that a good start in summer.
Cut back the shoots that are too vigor
GUS and take out entirely every weak
ling. If branch is going up straight
and you want it to go sideways cut
the branch so that the bud which will
be at the top points the way you want
the branch to 60.
Don't be too severe on your plants
in summer, but at the same time let
them understand you hold the reins
and that they cannot run riot.

PE0NIES

No other herbaceous plant lives so
long or produces flowers equal to
the peony.
Peonies planted this autumn will
flower next season. The middle of
September to the middle of October
is the best time to plant, preferably
the earlier season to permit the plants
to make a good root growth before
winter sets in. The soil must be rich
as the peony is gross feeder.
Remove the soil to a depth of three
feet and fill up the space to the depth
of foot with we'll rotted COW manure.
Spade the manure in well If the
soil is clayey, mix with it equal parts
of sand, leaf and mold and manure for
the other half. Fill up the excavation
with the prepared soil, rounding 1t up
to the center, which should be six or
seven inches above the level Of the
lawn,
In setting the plants dig hole from
one and half to two feet deep and
two feet wide. Allow space Of three
feet in diameter for each plant pla-
cling the crowns three inches below
the surface, firming the soil well
around the roots. This is best done
by the feet of the planter.
Mulch we'll before cold weather
with coarse manure and leaves. In
the spring loosen the soil, after re-
moving the mulch, to a depth of five
or six inches, care being taken to
stir the soil without injuring the
crowns of the plants.
Commercial fertilizer strong in pot
ash should be used in the spring
after tho he'd IS started.

STARTING OF THE ANIMALS

Many ANIMALS can be started from
seed planted now for winter flower
ing, and with the use Of the plants
now growing in the garden and young
plants raised from cuttings a good
display can be obtained for house
culture at a very small expense.
1t is a good idea to pot the plants
sufficiently early so the pots can be
plunged in the garden, permitting
them to remain there a week or two
before taking them into the house.
A good rule is to allow two leaves
10 remain on cuttings of such plants
as geraniums, cutting off the top half
of these leaves with sharp knife.
Any cuttings that die or rot must be
Immediately removed.

air ducts that enter the sides Of the
stable from the outside as shown in
the illustration. These air ducts are
built in the wall so that they extend
up near the ceiling and discharge the
air over the COWS.
Circulation of air in a stable de.
pends principally upon the heat sup
piled by the animals. For this reason
dairy stable should be well filled
with cows in cold weather, so that
their body heat will start the air in
motion.
The principle of the circulation of
warm air is that heated air has ten
dency to climb to the top. 1t is well
illustrated in the chimney. There is
little draft up through a cold chin
ney, but as soon as the fire is started
air rises up with considerable velocity.
A well built cow stable that is filed
with cows is comfortably warm in zero,
weather. At the same time the flues
are carrying off the warmer foul air

The first year had been a phenome-

second year there was a glut on the
market. Prices broke Half the
members fell away, anxious to make
what little they could rather than sac
ritice their crop for the good of the
association.
The colonel was particularly bitter
against Fleming because in some way
he associated the fall of prices with
the new organizations doings. AS an
independent he, in turn, had borne
the brunt of good deal of criticism
among his neighbors. That was GER
tainly bad time for Fleming and
Molly to fall in love.
When Molly told her father he was
furious, He stamped out Of the house

Keep the cuttings shaded. Another
good way to make cuttings is in a
small earthen crock without drain
age Fill with sand to within an
inch or two of the top. Insert the
cuttings and pour in water until the

the cuttings will soon root.
When the cuttings are inserted in
the sand, the sand should be packed
