TRIPLE-A. II. STARTS
YEARS WORK.

At vry delightful meeting OF the
A. A. A. H. on Nov. IA, the members
enjoyed program which was both
varied and extremely interesting.
Practically every member was present
when Chief Hobo Harvey opened the
netting and the rapt attention Of all
was held until the close of one Of the
most interesting gatherings the club
has experienced.
A Higher Citizenship.
After several preliminary remarks
M. Lester read most interesting and
timely paper on: "Wanted-A Higher
Citizenship" Mr.. Lester dealt in de-
tail with the problems of illiteracy,
compulsory education, and the negro
problem. His paper was well pre-
pared, we'll read, and showed intensive
research. "The only hope" said Mr..
Lester, ito settle the turmoil now ex-
listing in several parts of the United
States is to enlighten public opinion"
The main theme of his paper was de-
voted to the discussion Of the ways
and means of bringing about this state
of enlightment, and the difficulties
barring the way thereto.
The Duty of Congress.
The next subject on the program
was very we'll discussed in a most ex-
cellent paper by Mr.. Gerald Brandon,
entitled: "The Duty of Congress" Mr..
Brandon reviewed the progress of la
Dor and capital and the menace now
threatening the country in the ever
increasing labor problem. He stated
that the demands of labor had never
been satisfied, and would never be. A
grave injustice was done to the public
by strikes, lockouts, ETC., and that the
public was becoming weary of the de-
mands mad eupon its patience. The
constitution secures, and guarantees
the rights of all-whether he be a
miner of Wall street broker-and all
should abide by the constitution. Con-
gress, said Mr.. Brandon, should es-
tablish a court of arbitration to settle
labor disputes, and should sc that its
DEGREES be enforced. Mr.. Brandon
showed thorough knowledge of his
subject, and went exhaustively into his
treatment of it.
Ye-GOds and Little Fishes.
Chief Hobo Harvey finding himself
next upon the program stated impress
sively that he was going to deliver an
grafton on aye Gods And Little Fish
es" and to keep the subject ever be-
fore the minds of his isteners-wrote
it on blackboard in view of all. Mr..
Harvey stated that he was humorous,
fat, and ugly by nature, and although
in perfect health sometimes felt indis-
posed like other members of the genus
homo. He couldn't fight, and he
couldn't run-therefore it fell upon
him to be humorous-whether his
spirit was willing or not-as fat man
without humor is like unto fat fly in
a Jug of molasses. Mr.. Harvey then
taking the sideral universe as his sub
ject, covered everything in general by
Ia few sweeping remarks, and then
took his seat amid the applause of his
fellow humorists.
The hosts for the evening, Messrs.
Wright, Rowan, and George, brought
forth delicious sandwiches, apples, or
anges, raisins, bananas, and cigarettes
and thus time swept by unawares
until late hour. The next meeting
of the club will be held during the
second week of December.

Stop Ravages of Grasshoppers.

ia. The latter had terminated we'll
and the young plants had made from
one to two inches Of growth.
After the red clover was cut and
made into hay Mr.. Fisk noted that the
field had been infested by hordes of
grasshoppers, which were moving on
into the alfalfa and eating the field
bare of plants. He called lat the office
of the county agent, II. S. Lippincott.
and told him of the invasion. He was
advised to dust a strip across the
field in advance Of the grasshoppers
with q mixture of air-slaked lime and
Paris green. lie followed the advice
and stopped the grasshoppers at
line plainly marked by the end of the
damage done by the insects.
A number of newly seeded alfalfa
fields on other farms were also at
tackled, but the "hoppers" were effec-
lively checked by the poison bait rec
commended by the agent. The bait
used was made up as follows:
One pound of white arsenic was
mixed thoroughly into bushel of saw
dust; then II ounces, of salt and one
half cupful of molasses were stirred
into a gallon of water, and the solu-
ton was used to wet the sawdust.
Such materials as bran and ground
alfalfa hay can be used as the basis
of the bait instead of sawdust.

USE SUNFL0 OVER FOR SILAGE
Under Dry-Land Conditions In Mon
tana Crop Made Average Return
of 1925 Tons an Acre.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Montana farm bureaus carried on
numerous crop demonstrations last
year and did notable work with tame
sunflowers as a silage crop. Sunflow-
ers under dry-land conditions made
an average return of 1925 tons of
silage an acre, and under irrigated con-
ditions 20 tons an acre. These demon
STATIONS showed that sunflowers yield
almost three times the tonnage of corn
under similar conditions. This kind of
feed is particularly adapted to high
valleys which do not produce abundant
corn. The quality of the sunflower
silage has been demonstrated to be
good.
Farm bureaus in Montana are the
official organizations through which the
state experiment station distributes
pure and valuable seed which 1t has
developed and increased. These organ
izations afford reliable means where
by the experiment station can keep in
touch with certain varieties of grain Of
proved worth. By working through
the bureaus it is possible to secure an
equitable distribution over the entire
state.

BIG POTATO YIELD
Western Canada Man Raised 600
Bushels on Two Acres.
He Thinks He Did Pretty Well, but
There Were Even Larger Crops
In the Neiahborhood-Live
Stock Men Prosper.

AS q by-product the yield Of potatoes
on the farm Of Ben Pawson Of Coal
dale, Alberta, was somewhat of pay
ing proposition. Coaldale is in the
Medicine Hat district of Alberta. Med
icine Hat is a place, pictured in the
mind Of many Americans. where the
weather man holds high carnival, and
when he wants to put a little life or
spirit into the people just moves the
mercury down few notches. The
rascal has thus given Medicine Hat
rather unenviable place on the map.
But it isn't half as bad as it is pic
tured. Anyway, Ben Pawson likes 1t.
Last year he grew six hundred BUSH
els Of potatoes on two acres of land
that had no special preparation, and
only the usual precipitation, or rain,
as the less cultured would call 1t.
When he couldn't work at his hay or
grain, because of the damp mornings,
he gave them some attention. And
then evenings between supper and
chores and bedtime he gave them some
work. Anyway his yield was six hun
dred bushels, and he sold the whole
lot for $685.. Ben is satisfied. Still
there were larger yields than this in
the neighborhood.
If one might speak of hogs in the
same breath in which you speak Of po-
tatoes, there is nothing in the ethics
of literature that would create a de-
barment. Taking advantage of this
license it will not be out of place to
state that large potato yields are not
the only feature of interest in this
new and interesting country. Amongst
others hogs are having a good deal Of
attention. Not long ago, hogs reached
the $1,000 mark on the Calgary market.
It doesn't cost much to raise q hog
and very little to bring him to weight
of 200 pounds. Don't cost much! Ger
tainly not. But what about the man who
recently paid $3.50 for Duroc Jersey
Boar? That was all right. That man
knew what he was doing. He was do
ing what a great many other farmers
In Western Canada are doing today.
He is acting on the old "saw," that
at costs no more to raise good crit
ter than a poor one" That is the rea-
son that Western Canada is looming
large in the live stock world. The best
Is none too good. The same may be
Eaid of horses, cattle, yes, and sheep,
too. The very best sires and dams
of the best breeds are purchased. And
while big prices are paid, it is felt that
the. demand for pure-bred stock at
home and abroad will bring returns
which will warrant any reasonable
price that may be asked.-Advertise-

HAS THREE CLAIMS TO FAME
Japanese Town of Nagoya Offers
Treble Attraction to the Tourist
In That Country.

Some Japanese towns rely upon a
single temple or palace for fame.
Nagoya takes no such risk of being
overlooked. 1t possesses feudal cas-
tie of which the citizens are inordi-
nately proud, temple containing a
remarkable statuary collection, and a
porcelain factory famous throughout
the world.
Except for the porcelain connois-
seur, visitors to Nagoya rush to view
the castle. If they tare sufficiently dis
tinguished, or can mention casually
enough names of important people,
the interior of the castle is at their
tent themselves with gazing at the
two golden dolphins or goldfish-the
anatomy is a bit vague that sur
mount the castle roof, and studying
the Japanese mastery Of curved lines,
as lavishly displayed in the castles
tiers of draped gables.
The dolphins are gold-plated and are
so valuable that they have been in
cased in wire netting, which is sup
posed to protect them against being
stolen. 1t seems unlikely that any
thief would be so ambitious as to
think Of stealing either of the ponder
Gus, glittering objects which would be
as difficult to conceal as the celebrated
white elephant. Yet Japanese ira
dition says that once upon a time an
INSCRIPTIONS and unpatriotic citizen
did attempt to catch one Of the prec-
ious golden fish by way Of kite. At
the critical moment the fisherman's
perfidy was discovered and he was
boiled In oil.

PUT PROFITS INTO DIAMONDS
Many Reasons Why Increased Demand
for Precious Stones Invariably
Follows Devastating War.

The waste Of war, by which many
suffer and few reap returns, is always
accompanied by a demand for precious
stones. This war has differed only
from other wars in that the demand
was greater. Profiteers in the allied
countries have bought for the purpose
of display. Prof1teers in enemy coun-
tries want diamonds, because they sup
ply the safest way Of concealing new
ly acquired wealth. AS the diamond
Industry is the closest corporation In
the world, values are not likely to de-
preciate, unless all the profiteers want
to change their investments at the
same time. At the present moment
the price is higher than it has ever
been.

ers the least hampered by office re-
strictions He frequently carries the

"LET'S MAKE 1T A MILLION"
Goal Set In Notice to County Agents
and Leaders by the Department
of Agriculture.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
A million members next year in the
farm bureau of the 33 northern and
western states is the goal set In a no.
tice to county agent leaders and coun-
ty agents by the United States de-
partment of agriculture. Reports show
that on April 1 there were 4O9,S41
farm bureau members in these states,
with 8,575 community committees
nearly q 80 per cent increase since
the December, 1918, report, despite the
influenza epidemic which handicapped
membership campaigns.
According to the 1910 census" says
the notice to county agents, "there
were 3,262,955 farms in the northern
and western states. With one-third
of the farms represented in the farm
bureaus they could be truly said to
be fairly representative. Farmers
should not be coaxed or scared or
fooled into the farm bureau. The Or
ganization is an appeal to their intel
ligence and their memberships should
be solicited on a thoroughly dignified,
common sense, business basis. Now
is the time to make plans for the an
nual membership campaign for next
fail and winter. Some Of the states
may wish to do this on a statewide
basis"

ty, Tex, by farmers who want to reap
the full benefit from tick eradication
by cleaning out the comparatively few
cattle parasites that remained when
the county was found to be sufficient

Clean Ticks Out.
It Is the policy of the United States
department Of agriculture not to hold
under federal quarantine any counties
or larger areas when only scattered
areas within the territory are infested
by ticks, but after quarantine Is re-
moved it is necessary that the remain
ing ticks be cleaned out before the
community will be free from danger
of heavy reinfestation. The Harris

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have tho Best

of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason Is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises Of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No ether kidney remedy has SO large q
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
30 many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.

nature all the help you can and she
will repay you with health. Look after

The enemies of the garden begin
work just as soon as the seeds are
planted in the ground, and 1t is con-
tinuous fight throughout the season.
The gardener who hangs up his hoe
and forgets his garden also hangs up
his chance Of winning. BY far the
best results can be procured where
the garden is given frequent, short
periods of attention. Later in the
season special care should be given to
clearing away the remains of the
crops and destroying any plants that
are badly infected with diseases, or
that harbor insects in any form.
