indian Nabobs on TaeIr Travels.

In all the countries Of the far East
aicli men abound of whom little is
heard outside their home provinces.
Latterly they have been more in evl-
dence as luxurious tourists for whom
nothing was too good. India has her
share. Sir Rattan Tata, the Indian
merchant prince, who had been touring
Japan for eleven weeks, and Lady
Tata left Kobe for India recently.
During his stay Sir Rattan purchased
Japanese and Chinese curios and OBJ
jeets dart to the value of $4,000. Just
before his departure Sir Rattan made
a gift Of $1,000 to Mr.. Nomura Of Yo-
kohoma, who accompanied him
throughout his stay in Japan and act
ed as companion and adviser to the
Indian magnate during his travels.
Lady Tata sent Mrs. Nomura and Miss
Nomura each handsome gift of beau
tiful and valuable emeralds. 1t is said
that the knighthood which was be-
slowed upon Sir Rattan during his
stay in Japan was not to his liking.
He had previously requested that his
name should not be presented for
knighthood.-- and West News.

WISCONSIN EDUCATOR FOR
GUM RACKS IN SCHOOL

Madison. The State Educational
Bulletin, issued recently, comments
favorably on a suggestion of Presi-
dent J. w. Crabtree Of the River Falls
normal school that there should be
gum racks in schools.
"Pupils have right to chew
gum," said President Crabtree.
"Teachers do it, but they know when
and how. Why not teach these con-
ventionalities to the pupils?
Permit the pupils to chew gum on
the playground and on the way to and
from school. But what will the poor
child do with his gum while in the
recitation or assembly room? A gum
rack at the entrance of the room con-
tanning a number and peg for each
pupil solves the problem.

GERMANY HAS LITTLE COFFEE
Supply Is About Exhausted, With
None Passing Blockade.

Amsterdam. Although it is not ad-
mitted in Germany, the famous old
German coffee houses, popular re-
sorts of the masses, are about to 60
out of business until after the war.
Germany is about out OF coffee.
The last two years the Germans
have used reserve supplies Of coffee
from Hamburg and Bremen. Ant
werp's supply augmented this when
it fell to the Germans in 1914. There
since has been a little from Holland
and Scandinavia.
The British have so effectively
stopped shipments to ports reshipping
to Germany that none is available
now. Germany is brewing the last Of
her precious berries. Before the war
Germany imported about SIS million
dollars worth Of coffee year, most
ly from Brazil and Guatemala.

How the Women Club of Living

up the town may we'll be of inter-
est to all who are interested in civic
affairs. So thoroughly was the job
done that Mrs. O. B. johnson was
asked to relate the story before the
meeting of the State Press association
held at Livingston last summer. This
she did by reciting it in rhyme which
was greeted with hearty applause.
It is worthy of note that the civic
department Of the club started the
work first by taking a short course in
civics. thus showing their apprecla-
ton of the fact that the matter
should be attacked through the chan
mel of municipal legislation. Conse-
quently campaign of getting women
registered was first carried on. leaf
lets were distributed calling attention
to the Importance Of the election and
at the primary election i'll August
more women in proportion than men
cast their ballots.
Having thus reused the interest of
the women in municipal affairs. the
members of the club then volunteered
their assistance in working with the
city health officer III inspecting ho-
tells. restaurants, and stores. They
also helped in securing convictions

remarked by many Of these visitors

HIGH SCHOOL TO GIVE
AGRICULTURE COURSE
FOUR-YEAR STUDY PROGRAM
MAPPED OUT FOR FERGUS
FARMER BOYS.

Lewistown.-In line with the ma
tionwide movement to relate school
ing to actual life. the county high
school here will give winter course
in agricultural subjects beginning
Monday, November 6.
A four-year old schedule has been
mapped out. During the first year,
agriculture, farm mathematics, man
ual training and English will be given.
The work will continue until spring
opens and the students enrolled are
called back to the farm.
The work will be especially adapted
to boys on the farm and the subjects
will be grouped around farm inter-
ests. Hitherto number of boys
have gone outside the county each
year to get instruction of this ma
nature, but it is felt that the work
can be given just as efficinetly and
more concretely at the county high
school because of the possibility of
taking up home problems and study
ing farming conditions at first hand

WOMEN IN POLITICS.
Besides Jeannette Rankin of

Besides JeanneCLe RANKIN OF
Montana, two other women are
now nominees for congress.
Mrs. Frances G. Axtell of Wash
ington is a nominee on the pro-
gressive ticket. She is strong
supporter of Wilson and it is
said she will receive the support
of the democrats in her cam
paign.
Mrs. Josephine Marshall Fer
nand is the democratic nominee
for congress from the fourth dis
trict Of California. Mrs. Fer
nand is the mother of three chill
dren. She is carrying on a Wig
orous campaign despite the fact
that she states her own case
without criticising her oppon-
ent.
Should these three women be
elected, Congress will not only
admit women to It's body for the
first time in it's history, but will
also secure woman representa-
tive from each party, republican,
democratic and progressive.

State Federation Dates.

Attention of club women is called
to the fact that both the fourth and
fifth districts of the state federation
have changed their date of meeting.
On account Of infantile paralysis in
Billings, the club of that city asked to

October 25 and 26. AT the same time
they requested the club at Red Lodge
to change their date at the same time
in order that one day might be spent
in joint session at Billings. Therefore
the date of the fourth district meet
ing at Red Lodge will be October "a

Lewistown, city with a population
of $500, has chamber of commerce
with a membership of 500, which was
organized in the spring Of 1913 out
Of the old Lewistown Commercial
club with the preachment of "diver-
sified farming" as one Of it's primary
missions.
The board Of directors of the club,
shortly before the abandonment of
the old organization. secured,
through the State Experimental col
lege, the services Of trained county
agriculturalist, whose work is done
largely under the auspices of the de-
partment of agriculture of the fed
eral government and the State Exper-
mental College at Bozeman.

While it did not abandon any of it's
city activities, the new chamber of
commerce decided to be or real SER

The best evidence Of the appreciation
Of this attitude is the large number
Of farmers who have become men,

Cows were brought into the county
from eastern states and sold to the
farmers on time with low rate of
