Der Of wheat type trays which illustrate
the various classes and subclasses OF
wheat the principal varieties in each
class and types Of foreign material and
damage.
For Benefit of Visitor.
A portion of the sample retained In
the alright can is placed In the mOls-
ture tester for the benefit of the Wis
itor. He sees how the inspector deter
mines the percentage Of moisture In
the grain and learns that definite per-
centages are allowed for each grade.
All the other tests described above are
made on the large sample in Ne cloth
bag. The oat kicker is Il mechanical
device which separates the oats, weed
stems, chaff, straw and other foreign
matter known as dockage from wheat
samples. This is the first test for
wheat samples. In corn and oats sam
pies the foreign material is separated
by screening with hand sleeves.
Thousands of farmers and others In
terested in grain have visited these
exhibits, which are helping producers,
dealers, millers and others understand
the principles Of grain grading. After
talking with the demonstrators they
realize that the application of the fed
eral grades materially narrows mar
keting costs, and so Is direct benefit
TO both grower and consumer.

SCOUTS CANVASS FOR COAL.

In the midst of the coolest weather
In 80 years Butte. Mont, was virtually
without coal. In addition thousands
were out of work as result of In
dustrial shut-downs due to the coal

want. For several days the poorer fun
lilies Of the city had been supplied with
fuel by destruction of old wooden
buildings, dating back to Butte's early
days, but this source. became ex-
hausted. Boy scouts, In a canvass Of
the city, obtained GOO pounds of coal,
which was distributed in small lots
where most needed.

"a palpable dereliction OF duty did

The Democratic platform as ana
gzed BY the Federation does not in
VI cases come up to the full measure
of explicltness OF the proposals sun
matted by labor before the Commit

loaturss. however, labor considers
fhat the Democrats have shown sym-

The platform plank which calls
forth the highest praise from the

community. Although the weather
was unfavorable, ten persons came to

In loving memory of my dear mo-
Their. Mrs. G. w. Fraiey.
The hands that toiled for us are folded
Her dear warm heart is stilled:
A place is vacant in our home
The world can never fill
She is blooming in Gods garden,
Among the lilies fair.
God saw she was too good for earth,
SO he transplanted her UP there.
We did our best, God only knew,
To save her life we could not do.
For some good cause, we cannot tell.
He took her home with him to dwell.
Nobly at her post she stood,
Our mother, kind and true;
Beloved by all her friends so well,
And kind to all she knew.
Rest on, dear mother, thy labor is DER
Thy willing hands will toll no more :
Faithful mother, both true and kind.
A truer mother you could not find
How sweet the name of mother sounds
To the ones who feel so sad.
10 speak of friends upon this earth,
Mother is the best friend to have.
BY her loving daughter, Carrie.

offenders whined like spoiled children
