climates. 1t thriyes in the corn
belt, in the Gulf States and even in
Northern Canada. The Angus also
wristbands the heat and drought Of
the plains. The Hereford outranks
them all as a range animal, as the
Sherthorn excels for small farming.
The Hereford is seldom tubercular,
and is the best rustler. Herefords
do well in the South, where the heat
doesn't seem to bother them any more
than in the corn belt. The Galloway
is one Of the oldest breeds Of cattle.
Like the Aberdeen Angus, it is solid
black in color. Although slightly
smaller than, other beef breeds, it has
been found to be better adapted to the
Northwest than other varieties. The
Galloway, like the Hereford, is good
rustler and winters well on hay, corn
stalks and other roughage.

When the thirteen colonies signed
up to the Declaration of Independence
they represented total area of 827,-
844 square miles. The first great ac-
cession of territory was under Presi-
dent Jefferson in 1903, by the Louis
lana purchase from France, contain
ing 864.931 square miles. In 1919,
Florida was ceded by Spain, with an
area of 59,268 square miles. Then
came along the Texas addition in 1845
Of 375,239 square miles. In 1916, the
Northwestern Territory, through
President Polk, passed into our hands
from England, consisting of nearly
100000 square miles. In 1848, thru
the treaty with Mexico, we acquired
strip Of about $50 miles of the Pacific
Coast, adding 545,783 square miles.
Part of this land was California, in
the taking Of which Fremont, the
Pathfinder, played such conspicuous
part. In 1867, Alaska was bought
from Russia, comprising 577,390
square miles. The total square miles
of the 48 States, not including Alaska
or insular possessions, is 3,025,000
The last official statement of the area
Of the United States, including Alas
"a and insular possessions, gives about
;, 100000 square miles. Have we not

Are we really trying to do it?

Wyoming in three of four years will
be known as the first state without
taxation. Oil is being developed in
Wyoming, the quality higher than
that of any other field. Royalties
must be paid to the state and while
DEVELOPMENT is still merely starting
Wyoming is receiving royalties, night
and day, at the rate of 50 minute. In
three years it is the expectation that
royalties from oil will be adequate to
meet all the expenses of the state and
to pile up a growing good roads fund.
Other states are at disadvantage
with Wyoming in having disposed of
their oil lands at prices all the way
from 81 to 81 or S. an acre, but
Wyoming still retains hundreds of
thousands of acres of public land and
on this land oil has been discovered.
The state leases its land, takes its
royalty, like any other land owner,
and in few years will have, from
present PROSPECTS, a large surplus
fund to invest in roads, bridges, uni
versity and rural school promotion,
and other desirable objects. Lucky !
Wyoming, the millionaire oil state.

PARIS, March 27.--A Russian policy
is being framed here. although with
the greatest secrecy. President Will
son has the report OF William c. Bui-
HIT before him, and this is described
mirror OF conditions.
While much secrecy has been main
tanned thus far regarding the report il
Is known that it describes conditions
in Russia as being much more stable
than is generally supposed. The re-
port points out, for example. that
trains are running on time and that
the regular schedule between Petro-
grad and Moscow is being maintained
I. is understood that Mr.. Bullitt de-
scribes the conservative element
among the Bolshevists as seemingly
having the upper hand. Lenine is the
leader of this faction. Mr.. Built,
spent a week in Petrograd, and his re-
port ia the first from the inside OF
Russia to reach the American mission
in two months, and to this extent il
has value
There is a tendency in many quarters
however, not to attach any great i'm
portance to the hurried trip OF these two
men into Russia, unless they acted as
negotiators, which Is strenuously denied.
Both are regarded as radical. and Mr..
Steffens is known to be acquainted with
the Bolshevist leaders. Their compe-
tence as unbiased investigators Is ques-
toned openly.
From the views OF both men IL IS
known that they would be quite likely 10
favor treating with the Bolshevists
One thing appears rather plain amid
all the secrecy, namely. that military ac-
ton is not favored except by the French.
Some new policy OF treating with the
Bolshevist Is now believed far likelier.
The Big Four now realizes that a
Russian plan must be executed before
peace successfully can be negotiated
with Germany. This Is stated authori-
tatively and II has given encouragement
in diplomatic circles. Germany. 1t is
held, never would sign peace treaty as
long as there remained a chance for her
to .use-AHe RaIst ,evists as allies. Recent
events show that the plan to postpone
the Russian problem until after the con-
cluson of peace with Germany, as
President Wilson advocated. was a great
mistake.

More than $4,000 men are on strike
in South Wales and 1000 in other

adequate safeguards, be established

and that legal time wage rates OF uni
versal applicability be fixed. were made

minimum time rates should be reached

Among the suggestions made by the
committee is one to raise the age al
which children should be allowed &c
enter employment. and others for more
generous sick benefits and old age PEN
sions.
1t is proposed that a national indus
trial council be formed, to consist OF
400 members, each side being equally
