Buy HAS A PLAN
Would Ring Liberty Around
World in Reality.
Scheme Is Regarded as Practi-
cal by Electrical Paper.

There is a scheme afoot today to
make it possible for the benighted
Huns in Hunland to hear tho actual
sound of the most revered bell in the
world.
The plan. as explained by ohran
Coblentz. 5o7 Van Buren, street, sounds
practical and is actually being put in
motion in all parts of the United
State thru the columns of the Electri-
cal Experimcnter.
The plan IN short is this: To have
the old bell taken from its setting on
the original beam and welded by one
of the modern processes. Then sur
round the bell with a series of miro
phones connected with the McCarty
wireless telephone and thru this in
strument to the great naval wireless
station at Arlington. Coblentz and
the Electrical Experimental both say
that from this point the sounds OF
the bell could be heard around the
world, not thru tn guns of the allies
but in reality.
Would Fix Flaw.
The Electrical Experimenter points
out the fact that the history of the
nation up to the time of the close
the Civil war is faithfully portrayed
in the history of the Liberty Bell. The
magazine says:
Sure, it's the simplest thing in the
world to fix our bell. unless we pre-
fer 1t broken and out of commission.
But why should we-our liberty isn't
in that plight. Up to a certain point
the bell followed our history pretty
closely. We founded our freedom in
1916, and the bell rang it for us. But
there was flaw in the casting OF our
independence which we couldn't see.
Slavery, which worked and widened
till it broke the nation apart, while the
bell too developed an interior strain
and cracked from it. We welded the
nations fracture together. better than
new. and in the heat of the civil war
but right there the bell stopped &C
complaining history. Any reason why
it shouldn't catch up again now that
we're setting our liberty the biggest
task OF all ?"
Boy Explains Plan.
The plan of welding the liberty bell
together and setting aside a day when
all the "ether round about should ring
for just one minute with nothing but
liberty vibrations was explained to

undeveloped horns of the calves. Tt
should be applied when the calf is
from four to ten days old. Clip the
hair from around the knobs where the
horns are developing. With a slightly
moistened stick of caustic, rub each
horn alternately three or four times
allowing it to dry each time before ap-
plying the next. Extreme care should
be taken not to have the stick so wet
that the solution from it will run down
the side of the calf's head. To pre-
vent the spread of the caustic, which
will cause sores on the skin, apply
vaseline around the edge where the
hair has been clipped.
For older cattle, where the horns
have developed, either saws or clip
pers should be used. 1t is best to use
the. clipper on the young animals when
the horns are still soft and tender,
but with older animals which have
hard, brittle horns the saw should be
used. While the operation can be per-
formed with clippers quicker and with
less pain, this instrument is liable to
crush the bone in older animals, caus-
ing a wound that heals very slowly.
Cattle should never be dehorned
during warm weather, spring being the
best time to perform the operation. If
delayed too long in the season, the
wound may become infested with
screw worms, and flies are very an
moving. Either coal tar or pine tar
applied to the wound will prevent fly
injury. If screw worms appear in spite
of all precautions, they may be re-
moved by saturating a piece of abb
sorbent cotton in chloroform and in
serting it into the wound, or by pour
ing gasoline into the horn cavities.
This kills the worms, which should
then be removed with a pair of for
ceps.
In order to make a clean cut and
void trouble in performing the opera
ion, the animals head should be |
tapped or held in a fisn position. For
his purpose dehorning chutes, the
ront of which consists of two strong |
pieces which can be closed firmly on |

well be proud to send there.
AT a meeting Of the democratic
county central committee and a
considerable number of other
democrats of Cascade county, held
in Great Falls last week, the fol-
lowing resolution concerning the
candidacy of Harry B. Mitchell
for congress was unanimously
adopted:
Resolved, That the democrats
of Cascade county view with
peculiar satisfaction the fact that
one of their number, Harry B.
Mitchell, has filed his candidacy
for the nomination as democratic
candidate for congress in the
second congressional district.
I'm these critical times it is of
supreme importance that we have
men of sterling character and
first rate abilities in congress to |
give aid and support to our presi-
dent in carrying on a world wide
war to establish self-government |
and peace in the whole world.

and the ability to fill the place in

lrge democrats in this district to

ident that by his nomination and
election this district will be re-
by one who will reflect

According to late news dispat-
ches Judge Nichols of Billings and
Harry Parsons of Missoula have
dropped out of the republican
primary senatorial race. The race
on the republican ticket is now
between DR.. Lanstrum of Helena
and jeanette Rankin of Missoula.
Evidently some of the republican
leaders thought it wise to have at
least two of their candidates for
the senatorial nomination with
draw for fear that Jeanette might
get by, or the two that withdrew
realized that it was a hopeless
race being that they have Senator
Walsh, the democratic candidate,
to contend with at the general
election this fall, and therefore
dropped out at very opportune
time. Well it makes no difference
who the republicans nominate at
the primaries on August 81, when |
the votes are counted after the
general election in November it
will show that the people of Mon
tana want Senator Walsh to re-
main at his job in Washington for
some time yet.

Washington, D. c.. Dec S, 1913
l most earnestly urge upon you that
your organization make every possible
effort to the end that pledges for the
purchase of War Savings Stamps be
fulfilled before the close of the year.
The Governments monetary require
ments we're never greater nor more
pressing than they are today. Elk
penditures for November were greater
than in any similar period These ex-
penditures growing out of the war
must be met by borrowing from the
people, and their magnificent response
heretofore to the Governments re-
quirements makes me confident that
they will not fail to continue their sup
port to the end, that all payments re-
sulting from war necessities will be
promptly met. Much remains to be
done, our brave troops must be main
tanned and paid until their work is full
ly accomplished and they are returned
to their homes. This is not time for
us to relax our efforts and the Treas
ury Department is making plans for
larger and even more important work
during the coming year. Please make
every effort to bring this statement be-
fore the people in your district and to
urge upon them the continued hold
ing of their war savings certificates,
the fulillment of their pledges and ad-
ditional purchase as their means per-
nit.
