MONTANA FARMERS ARE
ENJOYING PROSPERITY

The wav OF prosperity that has
swept this year and last over the
homesteaders of northern Montana is
carrying to the door and into the
home of the prairie dweller many
conveniences and comforts of city
life. Everywhere telephone lines are
being extended and scores of school
houses are being built. Wagons that
go to town loaded with grain return
with a piano or a graphophone for
ballast. Automobiles ordered by
small town dealers by the dozen and
their way from the distributing
point. The newcomer who has spent
two or three seasons on his land
goes to California or Florida for the
winter, while the farmer just getting
a start who has a trade a find a
job waiting for him at almost any
of the cities or towns to tide him
over until the spring.
At Fort Benton nearly all the bar
bers, cooks and saloon keepers have
homesteads. In many districts this
situation already has solved the ques-
ton of what will happen to the bar
tender when the dry law goes into
force.
"These homesteaders certainly
have a lot of faith In Montana" said
a resident at Fort Benton-himself
a homesteader. Everybody is ready
to trust them and they aren't giving
much thought to the prospect of a
dull day. They find it an easy mat
ter to pay up the amounts due to
the town merchants which frequently
reach large sums and make provision
for the next season. Then off they
go to the coast to have a good time
until spring. The Few that stay on
their ranches stock up with all the
comforts of the old home. Why, the
other day when I was riding into
town from my place eight miles out,
l met, in the course OF a mile or two,
four farmers who were bringing in
junk for the winter. One of them
had a big stove and a lot of furni-
ture aboard and each of the others
besides provisions, was taking home
a SIS or 500 monograph"

substantially for such improvement
work as tie building of roads.
"The different commercial asso-
Citations and their connections
throughout the state have been cam
paigning for the last decade to have
every man who had a little time on
his hands come to Montana. Let
us build good roads and the tourist
problem will be solved. We will not
only have them as tourists, but as
permanent citizens; those who can
not stay will come back and bring

PERMANENT ROADS
MONTANA'S NEED
ONE ENTHUSIAST SUGGESTS
VOTING OF BOND ISSUE
FOR HIGHWAYS.
Two Great National Parks Would
Attract Many Automobile Tourists
If Roads Were Improved; Tour
list Who Comes to Montana Cannot
Help But Be Impressed.

Would it be asking too much
of the citizens of Montana to
vote a bond issue sufficient to
meet all requirements for build
ing permanent roads in the
state? A well-known good roads
enthusiast, who knows of the
substantial benefits resulting
from tourist travel, asks this
pertinent question. He says:
81 am sure there is no state in
the union which needs good roads
o than does Montana. With two
of the most wonderful parks in the
world, Yellowstone National and Gla-
cier, almost at opposite ends of the
state, good roads would mean that
thousands of easern tourists would
motor through the state, and no mai
can pass through Montana and not
be impressed with it's possibilities.
And tourists mean money for the
hotels, garages, accessory houses and
business establishments generally.
For Permanent Highways.
"I am a thorough believer in
the saying that if we want anything
enough to go after it we can get it,
and l truly believe that we people
of this great state have backbone
enough to go after this road question
SO strongly that in a comparatively
short time we a have every high
way and intersection SO improved al
to make them practically everlasting
would it be asking too much o
our good citizens that they vote ;
bond issue sufficient to meet all thu
requirements for building permanent
roads throughout the state? Othel
states have done and are doing this
and are benefitting thereby. There
are doubtless a number of men here
who are buying bonds issued by othel
states for very similar work, whe1
they could as we'll be investing it il
the improvement OF their own state
Owners Would Donate.
while I do not know how many
automobiles there r in the state,
will venture to say there is not 6
single owner who would not donate

ZONES sometimes wakes up feeling cross
- and in consequence the family know it
without his telling them in SO many words
Mrs. Zones attributes it to biliousness and
if it doesn't wear off during the day she
gives him a dose of liver medicine at night.
The next morning he feels better and she
gives him coffee for breakfast,-and the next
morning,-and the next morning. And in
a few days Jones has another spell.
Dear Mrs. Jones means all right, but she
doesn't seem to realize that if she didn't give
Jones his morning coffee she wouldn't have
to give him the liver medicine and ZONES
would feel all right without both.
Housewives everywhere have found out
that Instant Postum takes the place Of break
fast coffee perfectly. And that is only one of
the reasons why Instant Postum has wholly
supplanted the use of coffee on thousands
upon thousands oflAmerican breakfast tables.

SEE THAT YOUR COWS
HAVE PLENTY WATER

All animals require plenty of
good, pure water. This is espe-
pecialiy true of the milking cow,
as water constitutes more than
three-f0urths of the volume of
milk. The water supply, there
fore, demands the dairyman's
most careful attention. Stale or
impure water is distasteful to the
COW and she will not drink
enough for maximum milk pro-
ductiOn. Such water may also
carry disease germs which might
make the milk unsafe for human
consumption or be dangerous to
the cow herself. During the
winter, when cows are stabbed
the greater part of the time, and
unless arrangements have been
made to keep water before them
all the time, they should be wa
tered two or three times a day.
If possible, the water should be
10 or 20 degrees above the freez-
ing point, and should be supplied
at practically the same temper
ature every day. When water
well above freezing temperature
is stored in tanks and piped di-
rect to the COW, there is probably
little occasion for facilities to
warm it; but when it stands in
a tank on which ice often forms,
1t usually pays well to warm it
slightly. This can be done by a
tank heater, by live steam, or
by hot water from a boiler. If a
boiler is used for running a sep
arator or for heating water to
wash and sterilize utensils, steam
from it can readily and cheaply
be used to warm the water,

A coyote hide is now worth as high
$40 to $12. This, together with
SO state bounty, makes it worth while
to go after the rascals this winter

of Secretary Deniels that he had received COM
munication from Rear Admiral Fiske on the
needs of the American navy. Admiral Fiske
insisted that the communication had been filed
in the office of Secretary Daniels and the latter
insisted vehemently that he had not received
the document. The New York World comments
as follows on the recent statement of President
Wilson:
President Wilson, in his letter to the
American Defense society, tries to settle the
Daniels-Fiske issue of fact by inclosing memo
randum from Secretary Daniels in the course of
which the secretary declares: 'Inasmuch, how
ever, Admiral Fiske states that he did show
it to me before it was filed, l, of course, accept
his statement The President then concludes:
"1nasmuch as the difference referred to in
your letter between the secretary of the Navy
and Rear Admiral Fiske is merely one of reco-
lection of an incident which occurred in Novem-
Der, 1914, and inasmuch as the secretary says
that, while he has no recollection of having read
the communication by Rear Admiral Fiske, he
is willing to accept the admiraps statement, the
matter does not seem to me to call for any
comment"
Unfortunately, the matter does call for COM
ment. The difference cannot be soothed away
with merely one of recollection" for Mr..
Daniels, in transmitting to the senate the Fiske
letter, wrote: Il find upon inquiry that it was
filed with the chief clerk without my knowledge
that it had been written
The very best that can be said for it is that
it was an issue of responsibility which ends, if
it has ended in the vindication of Admiral Fiske,
in the thorough discrediting of Secretary Dan
iels' sources of inquiry" and in very bad taste
in the public's mouth.
