do Switzerland, France and a

It will keep them in constant war?
Have the sister republics given
up their constitutional rights and
rights of their congress to declare
war, or send their troops abroad?
Senator Harding's course OF &C.

two theories" he continued.
First. that the Importance Of
the league of nations could be either
minimized or distorted, so that its
true value could be realized by the
voters Of the country before cleo

Second, by stiffness and evaslve-

WINTER WHEAT SEEDED
THREE YEARS PROMISES
YIELD OF 25 BUSHELS

Winter wheat seeded in the fall of
1917, promises to return better than
the average yield this year, although
1t has not been cut or cultivated in
the meantime.
The wheat was seeded on the
Thompson ranch in MusselshelI coun-
ty and in the summer of 1918 was
shattered so badly by hail that 1t
was not harvested. In the fall VOL
unteer stand came up, but the sum-
mer of 1919 was so dry that the grain
never matured and was pastured un-
til last fall.
This spring it showed healthy and
strong and the field was not touched.
Abundant rain came and today the
field is evenly covered by stalks of
good height, which are now sending
forth heads. If no accident comes to
the grain, it is believed by men who
have seen it that yield of better
than Is bushels to the acre will be
harvested from the 40 acres.

MEN OF GUNBOAT HELENA ASK
HELENA GIRLS TO WRITE THEM

Appealing to the town after which
their home was named, the gobs OF
the u. S. S. Helena have written to
the navy recruiting officer at Helena
saying TELL somebody to write to
u.s."
The old gunboat Helena lies in the
harbor of Hongkong. The Swan OF
the Yangtze, as she is known, has
been a permanent fixture in China
for years. Under command of many
shippers and under the guidance of
an ever-changing crew, many salty
COB has developed his sea-going tall
ents and many sboot" has become
a salty COB, but still the swan stays
on the pond.
Other and newer craft have run
their course and been put out of COM
mission. The Helena, however, ap-
pears to be immortal. Her crew has
no chance at the new and up-to-date
equipment on the dreadnaughts. The
letter says:
lis it possible, as some tradition
says, that having made a name, it is
necessary to live it out to natural
death? If so, the Asiatic COB will
for many years be familiar with old
navy styles. But we should worry.
Tell the Helena girls that II they
have a little spot in their hearts for
the boys in the navy to drop few
lines to the crew of the U. S. S. Hell
ena way out here in China. We have
no one to flirt with but the Chiny
girls, and though they may be fine,

sued.
The presence again during the
years of 1887 1880 of an unusual
number of foreign Indians and
half breeds about Belknap and the
Bear Paw mountains excited, from
time to time, some apprehension,
although no open rupture was ex-
perienced. The ghost dance" craze
of 18oO-91 affected all the Indians
along the boundary line. AS the
Sioux in South Dakota became
restless and defiant, the manner of
the border Indians also changed.
When the outbreak at Pine Ridge
occurred a large part of the garri-
son at Fort Assinniboine was hur-
ried eastward and the military
force at Fort Peck was greatly
strengthened. The effect of this
movement upon the red skins was
excellent, as there is nothing an In
dian respects so much as physical
force and nothing he SO much des-
pises as physical weakness.
When Colonel Otis was detailed
as superintendent of the general re-
cruiting service, Lieut.-Col. Bates,
who has also made splendid rec
ord during the war, assumed COM
mand which he held until he was
to the colonelcy of the
Second infantry. Colonel Bates
was succeeded in turn by Lieuten-
ant Colonel Miles, a brother of the
general of the army, who exercised
until the return of the
colonel of the regiment.
Several changes of a military |
character occurred prior to the
Spanish-American war, but when |
war was formally declared the
troops stationed at Fort Assinni-
ooine were ordered to the front and
since that time the property there
has simply been guarded by small
detachments of troops.
Now, however, the 18th infan-
Try, at present in the Philippines,
has been ordered to Fort Assinni-
ooine and will probably arrive

officer in charge of the post has

quarters and making them ready
for occupancy by the returning he
Iroes- When the regiment returns
there will be at least 1000 soldiers
at the post and the fort will again
resound with the measured tread
of thoroughly disciplined troops.
In the policy of concentration of
military forces about populous and
commercial centers, adopted by the
Ipresent administration prior to the
Spanish trouble, Fort Assinniboine
was not marked for abandonment.
It's mission has not been ended the
presence of troops there is needed.
And, again, SO much money has
been expended in erecting, enlarg-
ing and improving the post, that it
IS very unlikely the war depart
ment will terminate its existence as
an important military establish
ment. 1t was built to stand and
may be considered fixture for
many years to come.
Means "Mountain-Siou
Referring to the word from
which the fort takes its name, the
etymology of the word pronounced
"Az-ne-boyn, " though spelled in
variety of ways, is uncertain. There
seems to be views entertained by
men more or less skilled in the In
dian tongues OF the Canadian Dor
der. One is that "Assina," CAS-
SIM" or "Assine" is a descriptive
noun meaning bull berry, the fruit
Of the thorn shrub Astounding in
eastern Montana. 1t is generally
agreed that "boine" is a generic
TOR Sioux" Accordingly, by this
treatment we should have the brief
"Berry-Sioux." The
berry theory is disregarded alto
yether by others, who declare that
ASSN in Ojibway is unquestion-
lbly generic for stone" and its
notifications are applied in the
most liberal manner. Indeed the
word may be used to designate any
lace where stone formations in
ny shape are abundant; and this
,ives rise to the idea of a noun
ain. Hence the compound means
Mountain-Sioux." The orthogra-
by in question was settled as far

AS an example close to home, we
can mention Roland Park, a we'll
known, very high-class residential
development, formerly just out
side the Baltimore city limits, but
now annexed as a part of the city,
with a completely metered sup
ply, has an average daily per
capita consumption of 60 gallons,
and Howard and Forest Parks,
two other high-class residential
communities. completely metored
and now included in Baltimore
City's new limits. use only 40 to 20
gallons of water per capita per
day.
In Baltimore City with Only
large consumers metered, the
amount is nearly 200 gallons. An
napolis, with practically no manu-
featuring uses of water. mas wa
ter consumption of 125 gallons
per capita per day.
Fall River, Mass, which meters
all its services and has a popula-
ton of 10000, has a total con-
sumption of only Al gallons per
day. per capita, but there is only
one tap for every ID inhabitants,
and the character of the city and
the lack of dependence upon the
city water supply for business
purposes. account in part for the
extremely small consumption.
Lowell, Mass, with. popula-
tien of LOG. 900, has metered 70 per
cent. of its 12.494 services, and
has kept down the consumption
daily per capita to 81 gallons.
Tho consumption per day in 1910
was not per cent. higher than in
1890, when the population was
$4,000. There is scarcely any
business use of city water, how
ever in Lowell.
In Hartford, Conn, with a popu-
lation in 1910 of $4,000, the pro-
portion of taps metered has in
creased in ten years from 6 70 SO
per cent, and the per capita daily
use has fallen from 80 to II gal

tendency of the most cities, with
improvements in plumbing. nas
been toward large per capita in
crease. With a larger water sup
ply, however. Hartford is likely to
show more use Of water hence
forth for business purposes.
The per capita daily consuinp-
ton at Providence, r. l., with
universal metering, has in twenty
years Increased only FROM II to 63
gallons.
In Albany, with only "a per
cent of the taps mctered, an in
crease of press lie of 40 lbs in the
older part of the city increased
the por capita daily consumption
from f9S gallons in 1909, to 223
gallons in 1910.
In Richmond, Va, an increase
of meters from 40 per cent. of the
taps in 1904, to 6S per cent in
1910, has reduced the total con-
sumption 5 per cent. in spite of
the growth Of the city. The per

the higher rates which he must
pay to meet the costs of increas-
ing demands. and in addition, he
is also compelled to share in the
costs of extensive engagements

waste may continue and increase.
The only effective remedy for
this waste has beer found to be in
the complete metering of all serv-
ices.
The following tables are of in

sumption is uniformly high VIII nc
few or DO meters are nsed and low
where a high percentage of the

was compiled several years ago,
