In a December plumber of The
Survey there is an article on ma
tional prohibition by Robt. A.
Woods, of Boston. entitled "Win-
ming the Other Hail." in the
closing paragraphs Of which the
author says:
"A most remarkable fact
about the movement for national
prohibition, looked at now from
the point of view of its strong
probability of success. and the
amazing economic and moral
transformation which it will pro-
duce, is that, for it's specific pro.
motion, it owes nothing to any
of the accredited social reform
forces. With substantial accur-
acy it may be said social work
ers as a body have had toward it
nothing more than the attitude
of curious spectators. Yet it
will, without doubt, accomplish
within their own field more than
the total result of all they can
hope to achieve with their pres
ent programs. On the fingers
of one hand can be counted the
leaders of organized labor who
have shown any kindly interest
in what may even double and
treble trade-union resources and
influence. Hardly even a ripple
has been stirred upon the face
of socialist discussion by this
vast tendency which promises
to accomplish the biggest result
of deliberate collective action in
the whole history of democracy"

"BOES" TO GET BUMPED

"Gentlemen of the road" are apt to
find Montana a state of great an
noyance if railroads here adopt a plan
now being used to disrupt their RAM
bles by the Southern Pacific road and
which a local railroad man said he
considered a distinct possibility for
the northwest.
The device is a "tramp trap" The
hobo enters the car, which is equip
ped especially for the purpose, and
with the doors left invitingly open.
The floor is covered with straw,
which conceals a burglar mat.
The moment the mat is stepped on
it lights a bulb on the roof of the
car, which is supplied with current
from a small storage battery. The
light burns until a member of the
train crew discovers it.
"On the roof of these trap cars is
a lever connected by concealed cables
with sliding doors. The trainmen
close the doors by means of this lever
and everything is yer but waiting
for the sheriff at the next station.
Between Los Angeles and Yuma
these cars have been the cause oil
complete disappearance of tramps, &C.
cording to reports. They are as popu'
lar with tramps as a rat trap is with
a rat.

seeds are sown during the autumn and
the plant allowed to remain in the
ground over winter. Frequent shall
low cultivation should be given the
crop; and if crisp and tender lettuce
is desired during the summe months,
some form of partial shading may be
necessary.
For head lettuce Big Boston, Han
son and California Cream Butter are
good varieties. For 1oose-leaf lettuce
Grand Rapids or black-seeded Simp-
son are recommended.
Radishes are so hardy that they
may be grown through the winter in
cold frames in the latitude of WASH
ington and farther south in the open
ground. In the north they require
hotbeds, but can be sown in the open
ground, as soon as the soil is moder-
ately warm. They should be planted
in drills IL to 10 inches apart and
thinned slightly as soon as the plants
are up. On a quick, rich soil some
of the earlier varieties a be matured
in from three to four weeks after
planting. If the plants are allowed
to remain long in the open ground, the
roots lose their crispness and delicate
flavor, and in order to ecure a con-
slant supply successive paintings
should be made every two weeks. One
ounce of radish seed is sufficient to
plant 100 feet of row. A large per-
centage of the seed terminates, and
if the sowing is done carefully later
thinning may be unnecessary. The
first radishes to appear may be pulled
as o as they are of Sufficient size
and this will leave enough DON for
those that are a little later. The
plant is not suited to hot weather,
but should be planted in the early
spring and late autumn.

A SLICE OF E.

"Many a Mickle Makes a Muckle"
A single slice of bread seems an un-
important thing. In many households
one or more slices of bread daily are
thrown away and not used for human
food. Sometimes stale quarter Of
half loaves are thrown out.
Yet one good-sized slice of bread
such as a child likes to cut-weighs
an ounce. 1t contains almost three
fourths of an ounce of flour.
If every one of the country's TO-
100000 homes wastes on the average
only one such slice of bread a day, the
country is throwing away daily ver
14,O0O, 600 ounces of flour-over $751;
900 pounds, or enough flour for over
a million 1-pound loaves a day. For
a full year at this rate there would
be a waste of over 100000 pounds
of flour-1,5O0,0O barrels-enough
flour to make 365, 900 900 loaves.
AS it takes 4 1-2 bushels of wheat
to make a barrel of ordinary flour
this waste would represent the flour
from over 1000, 900 bushels of wheat.
Fourteen and nine-tenths bushels of
wheat on the average are raised per
acre. 1t would take the fruit of some
47O,OOO acres just t. provide a single
slice of bread to be wasted daily in
every home.
To produce this much flour calls for
an army of farmers, railway men.
flour mill people. To get the flour
to the consumer calls for many
freight cars and the use of many tons
Of coal.
But some one says, a full slice of
bread is not wasted in every home
Very well-make it a daily slice fo1
every 4 or every 10 of every 30 homes
make it a weekly or monthly slice
in every home-or make the wasted
slice thinner. The waste of flour in
volved is still appalling-altogethe
too great to be tolerated when wheat
is scarce.
Any waste of bread is ~inexcusabl,
when there are so many ways of us
ing stale bread to cook delicious dish
es.
The United States Department o
Agriculture, Washington, D. c., o
your state agricultural college will
tell you how to use stale bread il
many ways.

COUNTY AGENTS
COMING FOR MONTANA


Mrs. Clara A. Bush of Minnesota,
has been designated as county agent
for Missoula county in the field of
home economics, the first woman to
be appointed to such a position. She
began work this week. Her appoint
ment at present runs only to June 80,
but it is expected that she will be en-
ployed permanently in the state.
This is the beginning of extension
work in home economics by the State
College of Agriculture and Mechanic
Arts through women county agents.
This work, it is expected, will be
greatly expanded if measures now re-
ceiving favorable consideration in con-
gress shall 90 through is they are
expected to do. In the conservation
of the food supply as a war measure
the women of the country will have
a very important part.
The purpose of the county agent
will be to establish an acquaintance
ship with the ONE of the various
communities and suggest to them,
through public gatherings and in other
ways, the most approved methods of
preparing and planning food supplies,
and of conducting other household af-
fairs. 1t is expected that from Is
to 20 m county agents will be
employed as soon as congress appro-
pirates the money and qualified wo-
men can be found.

order to have the leases crisp and
tender it is necessary to force the
growth of the plant. The usual meth
cd Of growing the plant for home
use is to sow the seeds broadcast in
the bed and to remove the lea~vesrap-
idly as they become large enough for
use. It is better, however, to sow the
seeds in rows IA to 16 inches apart,
and when the plants come up to thin
them to the desired distance. With
the heading type this should be about
IL inches apart. This will result in
the formation of rather compact heads
and the entire plant may then be cut
for use. For an early crop in the
north the plants should be started in
a hotbed or coldframe and transplant
ed as soon as hard freezes + over

NOTHING TO TALK ABOUT

Good old Saint Peter, taking a
stroll through the realm of Paradise,
says Puck, observed a middle-aged
woman, a very recent arrival whose
expression betokened anything but
happiness. Instantly he approached
her to inquire the cause.

don't look as though you were enjoy

of glory is not on straight, yet SEEM

whole appearance and demeanor sug-
gest despair rather than rapture.
Don't you know where you are, my
good soul? This is heaven"
The woman looked up at Saint
Peter with a lack lustre eye.
"Alas, l know it," she said in hol-
low tones, "'but it is not heaven to

We are the wings of the Eagle, spread

Sturdy and strong, we speed along,

The eagles back in the army-the

And both may fight through day and

We are the wings of the eagle and

From shore to shore where the

Let the soldier look to his rifle, and
the sailor look to the sea
And what they need with an eagles
speed, be sure they will get it
from mt.
We are the wings of the eagle, fleck-
ed with our labors' foam,
With freight and mail we blazed the
trail for a mighty nations
home.
AS in peace we have been your SER

slave,
And u wings will hum, and our
pulses drum till the flags of
freedom wave.
We are the wings of the eagle, eager
to prove our worth.

Then load us up with the burden and

And remember, Sam, the railroad
