Senator StephensOn's HOlsteins.

Isaac Stephenson no longer needs his
salary as a United States senator to
keep the wolf from the door. He has
a herd of dairy cows on his farm near
Kenosha which promises to make him a
lot more money.
Experts of the State College of Ag-
riculture have just completed years
test of ten cows of the Stephenson
herd. The four best COWS out OF the
ten each produced more than $4,000
pounds of milk and more than 800
pounds of butter for the year. They
averaged 275 eight gallon cans of milk,
which was sold at wholesale at S1.25
per can, making an income from milk
alone of $343.75 for each cow. The
value of this milk at prevailing retail
prices would be more than $500 for
each cow.
The Holstein herd of Senator Steph-
enson is declared to be one of the best
in the United States 1t was originally
hobby with the senator to raise cat
tie, bnt it is now one of his wealth pro-
ducing enterprises.

Edison has revolutionized the talking
machine business in just one year. He
has done away with the bother of
changing needles. He uses diamond
guaranteed for life. He has overcome
the hollow barrel tone and produces
real music. All records play on the
Edison. Every voice of the world that
has been recorded can now be heard on
the Edison and only as the Edison re
produces, perfect. Edison plays loud
or soft with no change Of needles or
closing of DOORS Applying chamber
of the Edison Disc is of moulded brass
like all the best grade of musical in

people have decided in it's favor.

New Process
Plant for Improvement in
Treatment of Flax to
Make Linen

Improvements in the process
for treating flax in securing f.
Der from which to manufacture
linen has advanced to a stage
where a big plant will handle
flax in competition with the
laborers of Europe, says the
Anaconda Standard. The new
plant, which will be on a COM
mercial scale, is now under
course of construction at Con-
rad. 1t is to be built by several
Montanans, among whom are
Nesbit Rochester and A. L.
Schimph, both of Butte.
Equipment which has never
before been used in this process
is being designed to treat the
flax. The manufacture of flax
fibre is in treating the flax by
processes which make it what
is technically known as gum"
From this substance the fiber is
secured.
In Europe the gum" is Sc
cured only after five or six
weeks work. The flax is
bleached in the fields and is
turned over every day during
the time it is going through the
process of becoming gum"
BY the new process it will be
possible to secure the results in
four or five hours which the
Europeans do in six weeks. The
production will be large and it
is expected the new plant will
be a factor in linen manufac-
ture.

Brings Suit
for $4,000
Major McFatridge Sues De.
mands Big Sum from
Inspectors

Major Arthur E. McFatridge
of Browning, former superin-
tendent of the Blackfeet Indian
reservation, an d publisher of
the Browning Review, has filed
suit for $4,000 in the u. S. dis
trict court against Federal In
dian school Inspector E. B. Lin
men and Deputy Inspector Fred
S. Cook. 1t is set forth that the
two defendants made an inveS-
tigation Of the Blackfeet Indian
reservation and in their report
published Jan. 9, 1915, t h e y
charged the plaintiff with gross
inefficiency, with embezzling
government funds, and that he
conspired to cheat the Indians
on the reservation out of their
money.
M a or McFatridge charges
that he has been in the federal
Indian service for the past fif-
teen years; that he has always
borne a good name and was
known as a faithful and efficient
officer, and that the publication
of the alleged statements by the
defendants was done to bring
him into public scandal and dis
grace and to secure his removal
as superintendent of the reSer-
vation.
