Bryan Stands for Wilson

Hope of enemies OF the nationaI
administration that William Jen-
nlngs Bryan would oppose Pre-.
sident Wilson's denomination and
thus bring about split in the
democratic party, was shattered
by Mr.. Bryan in the current issue
OF his newspaper, THE Common
err, which comes out squarely
for the President and predicts
that he will be renominated by
acclamation.
That there may be no mistak-
ing his attitude Mr.. Bryan signs
the editorial of endorsement.
Bryan's attitude has been fore
casted in a number af statements
ne has made from time to time
since his resignation as Secretary
OF State, but the Presidents pol
ltlcal opponents have refused to
believe that he ment what he said.
1t there still remains any doubt
on the question of where Bryan
stands with reference to Wilson,
the following editorial signed by
Mr.. Bryan in the April Common
er, will serve to settle it:
1t is now certain that Presi-
dent Wilson will be nominated
by acclamation. No other name
Will be presented in the conven-
ton. The platform will endorse
his administration and the record
made by the democratic congress.
The differences, such as may ex.
lst, between the President and
Congress, will be compromised
and the party will present a unit
ed front.
1T is remarkable record of
achievement, nothing. to compare
with in in number and Importance
Of reforms accomplished. Where
republican leaders have been
wrong, the President and the de-
mocratlc congress have been
right. The republican leaders
have opposed all that has been
done in favor of lower tariff
rates, and income tax, currency
reform and antitrust legislation.
They have insisted on war with
Mexico and even want to enter
European war. Where the Pre-
sldent has conceded more than
he should to the scaredness pro.
gram, the republican leaders have
! demanded even more. so that the
President is nearer to the people
than the republican leaders. Let
every democrat get ready for the
campaign and go to work. -

CLEANUP CAMPAIGN
Time limit in Ekalaka will be
up May 1st.

Have you joined the "Clear
Up and Paint-Up" movement:
If not, get in line and march tc
the front ranks and be ready for
duty. The royal battle 0
Clean Up and Paint Up" will be
fought all over the country.
This movement has enlisted the
aid of every one, young and old,
the schools the clubs. commercial
organizations, municipalities and
county communities.
One State wide campaign was
started by the Oregon Federation
Of Women's clubs. which led to
the issuing Of the proclamation
to ''clean up and paint up" by
Governor. Withycombe and was
followed by the appointing of a
committee from the Portland
chamber of commerce.
This committee inaugurated a
publicity campaign of stupendous
work and met with successful CO.
operation on the part of ministers
and physicians through the state.
That it has received true CO.
operation from the physicians is
evidenced by responses.
One physician indorsed the
movement as follows: 1T is much
more exhilarating and encourag-
ing to see clean, we'll kept yards
and lawns, clean streets and
buildings than to see dirty lawns
and neglected buildings. The
first example is exhiarating; the
second is depressing. In which
state of mind do you do your best
work?'
Another physician said:
Want to put the doctors out
of business? With good water
and a salubrious climate and an
abundance Of fresh food most of
the doctors would be idle loafers.
But | am with you just the same.
am having my house painted and
my lawn moved, and when the
painters get their stuff out | will
flush out the garage"
Are you going to do the same?
Take heed of the advice of the
above physicians. 1t is vital that
everything be made spick and
span not only for showing off to
the visitors that are coming to
your town this summer, but for
the sake of yourself, your family
and surroundings.
The above article appeared in
a recent issue of The New North
west, of Missoula and as the Eka-
laka cleanup campaign closes on
May 1st, the final date set by the
local health officers, we thought
it mighty appropriate for the re-
publication. Let those who have
failed thus far to heed the advice
of the cleanup boosters to get
busy today.

Building Silos

A few days ago T. 0. Stormset
OF East Fork, Montana called at
my office for some agricultural
information. We discussed a
number of problems, among
which was Mr.. Stormset's ex-
perlence in feeding silage the
past winter.
Late last fall Mr.. Stormset
called for information on silos.
After discussing various types.
he concluded the pit silo would
be the best for him at that time
as 1t was necessary to construct
1t as quickly as possible in order
to save his corn. He immediate-
~ returned home and built his
slIo and filled it. The corn used
was mature but plenty of water
was added which aided in keep
ing his silo in good shape.
Here is the report Mr.. Storm
set gave of his winter feeding.
L had plenty of pasture, as
grass in my section was good
but no hay except a little for nv
horses. wintered as head of COWS
and calves on silage and what
feed they could rustic on the
ranch. During the coldest part Of
the weather, | fed small amount
OF grain and about forty pounds
OF sllage to the COWS per day.

Where II | had gone into the WIN

sic did, | would have lost consid-
cradle. 1t was necessary to refill
my sllo, as | had some corn left
IN the field and the stock cleaned
up much better after culing it us
than when fed from the trundIe.
| consider this a most profitable
investment as it saved me a good
many dollars. This year | will
enlarge my silo and build another

with feeding siage this winter.

livestock business can afford to
be without one, especially those

Go not have very large acreage
