THE HAPPY MAN

Z" APPINESS is a state of
vs. mind and it is relative.
* The poor man. if he has
good health and is successful
as compared with others in his
walk of life will have as much
pleasure as a rich man or more.
A story illustrative of this point
is told of a Mexican peon who
once saved the life of Profirio
Diaz. For his service he was
asked by Diaz to name what
favor he would like from the
president. The man after
some study replied he would
like to have the privilege of
killing a pig now and then
without having to pay the usu-
al license for such an act. He
explained that he was poor
and that to pay the pig killing
license then demanded by the
government worked a hardship
upon him. Needless to say the
was granted and the man
went forth feeling well con-
tented with his lot. The case
of course seems far-fetched;
nevertheless it illustrates a
truth-that worldly blessings
are comparative which is a
wise arrangement because it
provides happiness for all. At
the rich are to be pitied
and the poor are worth envy
ing and the truth of this is not
Iessened by the fact that the
should have a more
equal distribution of wealth
han at present.

SEED FOR
FARMERS

~ HE following statement
VI has been issued by the
Department of Agricul-
ture:
Thousands of farmers have
been assisted to find the seed
supplies necessary to meet
their wartime planting plans
through the activities of the
committee on seed stocks in the
United States Department of
Agriculture. The work, be-
gun before spring planting
time, is still in progress in the
case of buckwheat, Sorghums,
and other seeds for late plant
ing.
"The committee has gather
ed information in regard to
seed stocks through field
workers of the various bureaus
and offices of the Department
of Agriculture and through
correspondence with lists of
seed dealers and producers.
Reports are issued at frequent
intervals. giving the names and
addresses Of dealers in seeds.
and indicating the relation OF
their seed stocks to the normal
demands on them. These re-
ports are distributed through
county agents and other field
workers of the department,
and enable them to assist farm
ers in locating suitable seed
desired for planting.
"The committee now has
under consideration plans for
assisting in the near future to
find and aid state agencies in
locating suitable supplies OF
seed for fall planting, especial
" winter wheat and other win
ter cereals and leguminous
cover crops"

partmenL.


WASHINGTON, d c, July IL
The crop of vegetables from home
gardens promises to be unusually
large in practically all sections of the
country this year. says the United
States Department of Agriculture in
a statement just issued. Home gar
deners, therefore, it is pointed out.
should begin now TO plan so that tho
products raised by them will be used
to the best possible advantage, with
out waste.
There is likely to be an unusual-
ly large production of vegetables from
small home gardens in most COM
munities this year" says the state
ment. Home gardeners. therefore
should lay their plans carefully so
that they will be in a position at III
appropriate time to make efficient
use of their garden products. both by
immediate consumption and by pre-
servation by canning, drying or in
other ways 81 that no good food will
be wasted.
Use More Fresh vegetables.
"A very material saving can be eff
fected in the food bill in many in
stances by having the meals consist
more largely of the fresh homegrown
vegetables and less extensively of the
nonperishable foods bought from tn
grocery stores. BY following this
plan, also. ga~rdenowners will relieve
somewhat the demand for the non
perishable foods.
Even with liberal use in the fam
lily diet in a fresh state. however,
there will be considerable SURPRISES
of vegetables from many home gar
dens. These should be saved in some
way. Canning is the method most
usually employed. but it is possible
that cans and jars can not be obtained
in sufficient quantities this year to
the surplus p~erishables In
such cases many products easily can
be preserved by drying.
''Ry this method sudplus water is
driven off by placing sliced products
before an electric fan. The dried
foods can be kept perfectly in ape
bags or boxes sufficiently tight to ex-
insects. Soaking in water will
bring the produces back practically
to their original texture and they
then be cooked like fresh vege-

KALISPELL ROUNDUP LEADER
Big Purses Bring in a Fine Lot of
Contracts.

Kalispell enters the show ring this
year with as strong a list OF arena
artists as ever received the plaudits
of the biggest outdoor show on the
continent. Nothing big in the way
of first class attraction has been
left off the Kalispell program. This
is accounted for by the liberality of
the purses offered, which are attract
ing the top notch performers and
bringing in the contracts.
Arena Director Dell Blancett writes
from Pendleton, Oregon, that he has
signed up a large number of the
best arena performers and that owing
to our liberal purses, is able to pick
the strong men and women. Some
he has named are: Led Caldwell,
a many times champion bronco man;
Ben Dobbins an dDave White, a
California team of prominent riders;
Carl Manderville and Yakima Can
utt, a champion team from Wash
ington. All these teams are artists
of all feats known to a wild west
arena. Tommy Herman, the world
champion trick rider will contest for
big purses with Narcisse Mckay, the
big Nez Perez Indian roper. William
Wilkins and Robert Burke, the>Uma-
tilla reservation Indian team are also
coming. Kite Wilke, the 1915 girl
champion bronco buster, will be
feature of the program. Miss Wilkes
will not have the ring alone but
Ella Merryville and Josephine Sherry
will contest with the champion. These
girl artists are strong Roman riders
doin gthe most daring deeds known
to modern show ring.
Sammy Carrot is the latest of the
trick riders to sign up and comes
with a fine line of press notices.
Bert Thompson of Pndleton, now at
Missoula; George Wier, the big
Texas champion roper of the world
and Ruth Parton, the 1916 sensa-
ton relay rider, girl wonder of the
arena, all have signed contracts with
Kalispell. Then, we have Allard of
the Flathead reservation and Ed
Mccarthy of Cheyenne and Jim Par
sons, who were here last year and
who alone will bring out a fine at
tendance based on their work in the
arena last year.
The relay contests will be a big
feature with such strings as will be
taken on the Kalispell race track by
Charlie Allard and Jim Parsons of
the Flathead reservation; Charles
Powell of the Blackfeeet reserva-
ton; Ed Mccarthy of Cheyenne
Wyoming, and Sleepy Armstrong of
Missoula. This will be an aggre-
cation of race horses seldom seer
| in a contest

From the foregoing it will be OBJ
served that several of the states
have fallen short of their apportion-
ment, but some of them are expected
to make good as they are still at
work. The whole state of Maryland
is still in the thick of the cam
paign. There is some doubt whether
New York City will reach its goal
of $40,0O0,000, she being, according
to the latest reports, several million
behind, but the campaign committee
of the metropolis is determined that
the city shall dc its part, and has
set out to make up the deficit.
That any section of the country is
apathetic to the present crisis has
been disproved. The people of the
country were asked for one hundred
million dollars and gave one hun
bred and fifty millions, and replied
in almost every instance "You can
rely on this section for more if there
be need for it." With the excep-
ton of the south every section OF
the country has oversubscribed. Sta
tistics show that the largest per cap
| tia contribution was from the New
England states, the average gift OF
the individuals of that division being
S1.41. Idaho's contribution per cap
tia was a trifle better than II cents
