the new. He was born in Mintraching,
Bavaria, December 10, 1910. was edu-
Gated in the common schools and then
learned the stonemason's trade, also
taking a special trade school course
Later he acquired practical
knowledge of mechanical engineering
and became building contractor, and
as such erected some of the largest
structures of his day. the largest.
stone chimneys in Bavaria standing
today as examples of his work.
A great lover of outdoor sports. a
persistent and successful hunter and
accurate shot, the lure of game and
wilderness brought him to the United
States in 1877. He first located at
Peoria. ILL.,, and engaged at his trade,
but soon he moved to the wilds of
Wisconsin and there as pioneer
reared large family and carved a
comfortable home out of the dense
forest.
His sons preferred railroading to
farming, so they came out to Montana
in 1900 and a year later Mr.. Dill
; meier sold his farm and moved with
his family to Hope, Ida, then an
N. P. division point, and there enjoyed
the company of his children until the
death of his wife in 1904. Since then
he had made his home with his
children
At the age of IS years his sight be-
came impaired, rendering him unable
to use his rifle, and he devoted the
past year to fishing and trapping. So
remarkable was his endurance that
two weeks prior TO his death he was
able to row a boat and troll for trout
over distance of five miles.
Outside of injuries resulting from
hunting accidents he was never
known to be i'll and but for an infec-
ton from an liberated tooth he
might have lived and seen many more
useful years.
To him fell the unsual experience of
seeing both a kingdom and an empire
rise and fall, and of taking part in
European wars. AS a soldier in the
Bavarian army he fought against the
Prusians in 1866 and with them

| berry boxes, climax or grape baskets
and other small containers.
Now all berries and grapes that
move across state lines are carried in
standard sized packages, while man
ufacturers no longer make other
types of grape and berry baskets.
This insures square DEAL to pro-
Queer and consumer, because the full
measure baskets mean that the pro-
Fducer no longer loses on oversize
containers and the consumer gets full
grapes.
Various states have passed laws
standardizing other forms of con-
tanners. but there Is sometimes lack
of uniformity in these. state laws and
confusion arises at receiving markets.
This is especially true In the case of
hampers in which vast amounts Of
/ fruit and vegetables are shipped each
year from many producing sections.
To eliminate much of the confu-
, sion and simplify marketing products
in hampers, the United States depart
ment of agriculture favors the stand
ardization of hampers along three
general lines as to capacity, dimen-
sions and strength,
The hamper basket is q popular
shipping container, particularly in
the Eastern and Southern states. Each
year about 30,O0O,OO0 of these bas-
kets. of all sizes, are manufactured
in about 100 factories near the large
producing sections or in the timber
areas. Some of the larger factories
turn out from 100000 to 100000
baskets annually. and one firm is
known to have an output of over L.
100000. BY the. use of machines
making 500 to 500 baskets daily. the
manufacturer has been able to in
crease his output greatly over hand
production.
These hampers are now made in a
wide range of sizes, from 8 quarts to
so quarts. some sizes containing even
fractions of quarts. With such a
wide variety, 1t is difficult for a COM
mission dealer to know which to
order. There is also wide differ
ence in quality. Manufacturers have
catered to the demands of the grower
for a cheap package. and in doing SO
have sacrificed strength. The ship
per who uses flimsy baskets is penny
wise and pound foolish" for fire.
quently he stands to lose 500 worth
of products in shipment when he
saves 81 in the cost of his baskets.
Railroads are often expected to make
good these losses in transit and are
sometimes called upon to pay unjust
claims. The railroads, however. have
been at fault in accepting perisEables
in light. flimsy containers, and the
breakage furthermore. is often
brought about by unnecessary rough
handling. 1t must be remembered
that in the end the consumer has to
pay for all such losses as well as for
the trouble from so many different
kinds and sizes of baskets.
A thorough canvass by the bureau
of markets in the various producing
sections has resulted in the conciu-
sion that five sizes of hampers are
ample. These sizes are the 8-quart
or peck basket; the 16-quart or half
bushel basket: the 20-quart or &
bushel basket the 32-quart or bushel
I basket, and the 4S-quart or h-
bushel basket. Two shapes are rec

decreasing the output and increasing the
cost, that would most likely stop exports

WHO'S GOT THE TREATY

w nv WI ANLAI
There seems to be new game at Wash
ington-"Treaty treaty, who's got the
treaty."
We are sure it's unique. We do not
think any previous administration can lay
claim to tor would.
The game is founded on the simple prin-
ciple known as "open covenants openly
arrived at" and the object is to try to
seep the document, which the senators
(the ins) will soon be asked to sign, out
of their hands as long as possible while
the outs are reading it.
The game has not been taken by the
senators in the spirit intended, we are
sure, by its inventors. Mr.. Lodge and
others are angry because the document
is not given them at once. Mr.. Hitchcock
is apparently of opinion that it is little
short of treason and sacrilege to read a
copy Of the document until Mr.. Wilson re-
turns and tells us what it means, although
everybody with spare change in Germany
is said to be reading it, to say nothing of
few favored readers, in our own coun-
try.
The situation, we believe, has no prece-
dent in our history. But, as we know
Mr.. Wilson has small respect for prece-
dents. In any case his intention has been
clear. The first draft of the covenant, he
declared, must be accepted as drawn. 1t
must not be amended. 1t was amended
nevertheless and Incorporated in the trea-
ty of peace, the longest in history. That
treaty, it has been announced, could not
be materially modified. Perhaps it will
not be- Perhaps it will be. But mean
while Mr.. Wilson does not propose to have
it studied by the senate, the press or the
public. We are to wait patiently. When
it arrives the psessure to approve will be
greater than now The time in which to
study and decide will be shorter We shall
be told all Europe, hanging over chaos,
awaits our assent
In such circumstances the senate will
be bombarded by furious demands for in
slant ratification. A calm discussion OF
the treaty will be almost impossible. And
yet tbs document presents perhaps the
most fatefu decision in the life of the AM
erican people,
We have notion the American people
would like the senate to have time to stu
dy such document. We think the Amer.
lean people would like to see it and to
hear full discussion Of its terms. Patri-
otto Americans without prejudging the
treaty will at any rate hope that America
will refuse to be hurried into its adept
ance and will give full consideration to all
its terms and implications, no matter
what the pressure may be for early peace.
We have right to consider our own safe
ty and welfare, first and foremost as ev-
cry other nation is doing most conspicu-
ously.-Chicago Tribune.
