THE JEWISH NEW YEAR


Shutdown Wednesday, September "a,
the first day OF the Jewish month Tis-
hri, will mark the beginning Of the
Jewish High Holidays. These holidays
OF deep religious significance. will
commence with the feast of Rosh
Hashanah, of New Year. The New
Year will be followed by Ten days of
Penltence, which reach their climax
in the Day of Atonement, October 7th.
"On the New Year all the inhabit-
ants of the earth pass before Him as
sheep before a shepherd" In these
words the ancient Jewish law book.
the Mshna, refers to the Significance
Of this day. IL is day of Judgment
when the sins and the merits of all
men are weighed by the Divine Judge.
The Talmud tells that In this annual
New Years Judgment scene three
books lie open before the Most High.
In one book, the Book of Life, the
names of the perfectly righteous, the
sinless, are inscribed; the second book
the book of death has recorded in it
the names of the utterly wicked; and
the third book is for the ordinary
middle type" of men, in whose be-
half judgment is Suspended through
the ten days of penitence, until the
Day of Atonement when the decision
Is finally made and recorded.
The services for the day are espec-
tally solemn. Prayers in prose and
POETRY, dwelling upon the theme of
Gods Judgment of man, are recited
and sung. The Rams horn, the "Sho-
far" summoning men to prayer and
repentance, is sounded in all synagogs
At the close Of the service the wor-
shippers greet each other with the
words May you be written down for
a good year."
Orthodox Jews observe many cere-
monies which suggest the ideas and
emotions of the day In the home
honey and fruits are eaten and the
pious wish expressed May it be Thy
will TO renewe to us a good and sweet
year" During the day orthodox Jews
will go to a river, shake crumbs from
their clothes and recite among other
nravers tho Verae from Micah "And
you will cast into the depths of the
sea all their sins" While orthodox
Jews observe the feast for two days
September % and % this year, Re-
form Jews return to the ancient Pales-
tinian custom and observe but one
day.

was twenty miles long.
Forty military bands and a score of
drum corps played rafting quick steps
as the long lines of duty. khaki-clad
soldiers rolled by in seeming never
ending stream. Tens. of thousands of
spectators cheered them ipartially as
they played Yankee Doodle" and
Dixie"
Veterans of the COS, NOrththerner
and Southerner alike, watched the
brown ranks with glistening eyes.
Long before daylight immense squad
rons were moving TO the stations as
signed them in the line of march. Some
troops had to march ~ miles before
getting to their places. At s o'clock
the general marching order was passed

MORE ARRESTS TO BE MADE IN
ALLEGED BLACKMAM PLOT;
VICTIMS OF GANG REPORT

I
Washington, September 21-Follow-
ing the series of conference begun last
might and continued today between the
chiefs of the Department of Justice
and its field agents, 1t was started to
night that more arrests and addi-
,tional sensational disclosures i'm the
alleged Mann white slave law1black-
mailing conspiracy shortly can be
looked for.
The investigation and search for the
brains" behind the alleged band was
ordered extended to many of the prin-
cipal cities of the country.
Chief Investigator Bielaski admitted
that many more victims OF the gang
had been reported today by secret SER
vice men in various Eastern cities
THE conspiracy was considerable
more extensive than we had thought"
Bielask said.
Department officials say they have
practically rounded up their case
against the men and women under ar
rest A few additional arrests are ex-
pected by tomorrow and will make the
roundup complete, officials say.
Instances of victims being held pris-
oners on bogus warrants for ten days
at time until they produced hush
none" were related.
New evidence received this after
noon is expected to result in the arrests
of other blackmailers operating on
small scale, independent Of any or
ganization. Several such persons are
now being sought.
From now on all inquiries will be
directed from the office of Chief In
vestigator Bielaski in this city, and
every agent of the department will re-
port directly to him.
At today's conference, participated
in by A. Bruce Bielaski, John c. Knox,
special assistant attorney general who
has been placed in direct charge of all
prosecutions; Hinton G. Clabaugh of
Chicago and several other special
agents, it was decided that the initial
prosecution shall be moved in the Fed
eral Court in New York next month
unless in the meanwhile a stronger
case can be found. This probably will
be the case of Mrs Regina Klipper,
who was the victim of the alleged band
arrested in Chicago, who, it is said
victimized her in New York hotel
The evidence is said to be conclusive
in the opinion of the Department of
Justice.
The fact that Mrs. Klipper was sub
poened as a witness by District At
torney Cline in Chicago was said here
today not to affect the case which is
to be pressed against DOC" Donahue,
Harry Russell and Mrs. Helen Evers
Because of the difficulty in getting vic
tins of prominence to appear against
the members of the band, it is expect
ed that in many cases the government
will seek indictments for impersonat-
ing an officer and charges of a similar
character. This will in a great mea-
sure protect witnesses, as it is realized
that many of the victims are married,
and their appearance in court would
be followed by divorce actions.

eggs, butter and poultry, but it is
matter of common knowledge in mar
ket circles that merchants who buy
these commodities when they are most
plentiful and put them in cold storage
to supply the winter demand when
production diminishes, frequently suf-
fer heavy losses. An open winter is
alT ost certain to cause loss on eggs
stored in the spring and summer for
the winter market
Eggs are most plentiful in the
spring and early summer, and the
surplus above current requirements
during that period IS purchased by
merchants and spectators and put in
coli; storage to be sold in the fall and
winter when the hens are not laying
freely and arrivals from the country
are not sufficient to meet the demand.
Department Statistics.
liz the case of wheat, statistics COM
piled by the department of agriculture
show that nearly 81 per cent of the
crop is marketed in July, August, Sep
TENDER and October, and 43 per cent
in the remaining eight months.
1t is obvious that someone must be
prepared to buy the surplus during
the season Of excessive marketing, and
hold until the season when farm de-
llvelies are not adequate to supply the
demand. 1t is cliar also, that mer-
chants and spectators who make a
speciality of this business are better
equipped to do it economically than
the thousands of farmers scattered
over the country, who cannot possibly
keep as we'll informed Of market con-
ditions as the big city merchants.
So many factors affect the market
ing of crops and the prices of commo-
dities that appeals to farmers to hold
these crops have never been effective,
and it is obvious that if they were,
the holding policy would defeat it's
own purpose by boosting prices in the
after-harvest season and depressing
them with large marketing later.

KALISPELL COW
BEST PRODUCER
AUGUST DOWNEY is QUEEN
OF ALL BOSSES IN
THE STATE.
Produces sa Much Butterfat in Two
Months as Average Montana Cow
Does in Two Years; Kalispell Cows
Averaging Up Well With Minnesota

kalispell. Comparisons made with
the records of the Dover Cow Testing
association by the Flathead Cow Test
ing association reveal that the high
COWS of this valley are as good as
those of the southwestern Minnesota
dairy section. The tests conducted by
the local association would apparently
make Downey of the Podratz herd
queen of Montana bossies. In the
months of July and August Downey
gave 1913 pounds of butter fat. Ac-
cording to the state dairy commission,
the average Montana COW gives only
100 pounds Of butter fat year. Dow
ney came within -tenths of a
pound Of giving that much in two
months.
Through scientific farm testing, the
farmers of this section hope to elm
mate the poorer cows, thus making the
average better year by year.
The monthly tests conducted by the
association show steady improve
ment in the Flathead stock.
