Miss Mabel S. Deschanes, popular
and attractive young woman residing
at No. Bartlett street, Lewiston, Me-,
is now an ardent champion of Tanlac,
since she began using the medicine
few weeks ago.
II prize Tanlac above every other
medicine, even that which was pre-
scribed for me-" said Miss Deschanes
in relating her experience recently
Il dislike publicity, but there are so
many others who. no doubt, suffer as
did, I feel that 1 ought to tell them
about it.
"I had been a great sufferer from
indigestion and had been under the
doctors care for six months without
relief. At the time l began taking
Tanlac l was on a very rigid diet and
at times could not retain food of any
kind Even cold water would cause
extreme nausea. l suffered from loss
of appetite, severe cramping pains
after eating and extreme nervousness.
Finally my condition got so bad l
simply had to give up and go to bed
until | got relief. I was unable to go
down town to do my shopping and, al
| L
six months, there seemed to be no re-
lief for me. Honestly. l don't believe l
would be alive now if l hadn't gotten
Tanlac, for I was suffering terribly and
getting worse all the time
"F'inally my sister persuaded me to
try Taniac. | improved from the very
first and one bottle did me more GOOD
than the six months treatment Why,
| actually gained four pounds in weight
while taking this one bottle. have
row taken four bottles and l feel Just
like a different person and am eating
ilst ANYTHING l want: in fact every
thing seems to agree with me perfect
| ly. l am now able to do my shopping
without becoming fatigued in the least
and am no longer nervous like | was.
"Tanlac is simply wonderful and /
can not praise it too highly

THE COPPER MOVEMENT

The brisk movement of the copper
that closed 1919 and opened the new
wear with such a flourish suffered q
severe contraction in the second half
of January.
In that period total sales amounted
to 10000, 900 pounds made by the four
big agencies and the Copper Export
Association.
In the first half Of January these
same factors sold 100000, 900 pounds
Of copper for foreign and domestic
consumption making a total for the
first 20 days Of January Of 17O,OOO,OOO
pounds.
Including January figures at hand,
it is estimated total sales Of copper
since the inception Of the buying
movement early in November amount
to 7OO,OOO, 900 pounds.
This is not only the biggest busi-
ness for q three-month period IN the
history of the industry, but it is all
the more important considering the
fact that 100000, 900 pounds went to
domestic consumers and about 2OO,-
100000 pounds to Europe through the
Copper Export Association.
OF the total sales on this movement,
it is estimated the American Smelling
& Refining CO., selling primarily the
product of the four porphyries-Utah.
Chino. Raw and Nevada Consolidated
sold about $4,000. 900 pounds.

CORN IN MONTANA

Montana had approximately 100,-
900 acres of corn in 1919. State Col
lege extension specialists predict an
acreage close to 100000 for 1920.
Seed corn for Montana planting
should be selected early, and on the
cob. There is plenty of seed corn in
Montana if it be not fed up.
A poorer grade Of Montana seed
corn is better than seed shipped in
from other states and which is not
adapted to Montana conditions.
Corn is the nearest failure proof
Of the Montana crops. Hay shortage
is not serious where corn is raised for
forage.
Corn is not we'll adapted to the
higher valleys Of the state.
The corn shown at the state corr.
show at Miles City last month was
the best quality ever shown in Mon
tana.
Be sure that you test your seed
corn during the winter.
Corn produces from two to three
tons of fodder per acre and is equiv
alent to timothy in feed value.

written by F. E. Fuller, extension ag-
ronomist at the Montana State Col

BRITISH ATROCITIES
SHOCK THE WORLD
Unfortunate People of India
Tortured and Abused By
British Officers.

London, Feb. 12.-Capt. Doveton,
administrator of martial law at Kas-
ur, Indian, compelled natives to rub
their foreheads in the dust rs "pun-
ishment" and collected large audi
ences to witness the public fogging
of natives. One of them, poet, he
required to write poem in his
praise. Admission of these accusa-
tions was made before the Hunter
commission investigating the Punjab
disturbances.
Lieut.. Col. Macrae, Doveton's pre-
decessor, admitted to the commission
he had fogged six school boys chos-
en- because they were the biggest
in the crowd" in punishment for a
demonstration.
On one occasion, he stated, the
male population of the town, num-
bering 10000, were turned out for
Identification parade, and some were
arrested on the spot. The parade
last for six hours, he said.
A cage was erected outside the rail-
way station for the accommodation of
arrested men. The largest number
of persons confined in the cage at any
time might have been $50. He was
"quite satisfied about the accommo-
dation," he declared.

TORMENTED WORKERS
WELCOME DEATH
(Bv the Federated Press)


Bombay, India-British troops in
India called into service to break the
strike of 100000 Indian cotton work
ers in Bombay, have fired upon peace
full gatherings of workers, causing
many casualties.
The strike started the first Of Jan
uary and has continued unabated. All
the mills in the city are closed. The
strikers demand an increase in
wages. The avreage wage of skilled
workers in the cotton mills Of Bonn
bay range from $4.40 month. I'm
skilled workers receive still less.
In cotton mills the workers are
often employed as many as II and
18 hours a day. In Bombay the work
ers work for ID hours or more.
The factories in which the mill
hands work are without any sanitary
or health provisions. There is no
ventilation.
The present Bombay strike is a
repetition of a strike which occurred
six months ago, the characteristic of
which was passive resistance. 1t was
only when British troops fired upon
the meetings, killing and wounding
large numbers, that any disturbance
occurred.

Ballad of a Farmerette

On the bum, Old Montana has been,
And the settlers look sort o. blue,
But before things as bad, we have seen
Nor is this mess anything new.
Even business men look kind o. sad
The bushes? Yes, downward it goes!
Yet ever anon you find one who is glad
Tho conditions give life to his woes.
All, friends! Some advice would give
to you all:
Cheer up, for the worst is to come.
The worst will come when men get a
To defend their own dear ones and
home.
God save US from Boshevik leaders so
daft,
And grant that we always be true
To Freedoms ideals-not Hopper
Gang graft
And up hold the Red, White and Blue.
Our dear Uncle Sam may have faults,
that is true,
But still, we have all had chance
He bade us all welcome, not only a
few
Whether we came from Holland or
France,
From Denmark or Russia or England
or SPAIN
Didn't make any difference to Sam!
But, Friends, have you noticed the
Farmer today
How he work to help Uncle along!
So hurry, join in, and Big Biz, we will
slay,
Then all will 20 smooth as a song.
Of Jonah the Prophet, you no doubt
were told,
And maybe it moved you to tears
But if "Big Biz" swallows you,-lo
and behold,
You NAV not "see land" for millions
Of years.
Our poor author, Lundberg, sure gives
US pain,
We all feel so sorry for him
His Maker neglected to give him
some brain
He fights in darkness that's black
er than night,
And imagines that he's quite man
| In the dark he sees ghosts, anO
squeals with alright,
Let us help him along if we can!
He vet could be organized, and be il
our flock,
And be Of some good, so we hope
But if he takes on, like dementee
''block,"
Let him struggle,-weH give hin
