 SNOW SONG
 See the pretty snowflakes
 Falling from the sky;
 On the wall and housetops
 Soft and thick they lie
 SnOwflakes, snowflakes
 Falling from the sky;
 Pure white snowflakes
 Soft and thick they lie.
 On the window lodges
 On the branches bare;
 See how fast they gather,
 Filling all the air.
 Look into the garden,
 Where the grass was green; Covered now by snowflakes,
 Not blade is seen.
 Now the bare Llack bushes
 All look soft and white,
 x, cry twig is laden,-
 What pretty sight!
 We began to learn our Snow Song" when we saw the first snowflakes of the year.
 We had little nature study lesson about the formation of hail stones. There was brisk little hail storm on Thur sday.
 This weeks spelling match was won by Betty Weedin.
 Several children made a grade of one hundred per cent in their written spelling this week. We are going to work hard at our writing, because some of the pupils know how to spell the words but they can't write them plainly enough to be read, or else they can't write them fast enough to keep up with the others.
 Most of our oral spelling is spell ing for headmarks.' The following headmarks have been won: Julia Braxton. four; Roy Holdiman, four; Betty Weedin, three; Frances Bohall two; Anna McLain, two; Milton Pratt, two; Charles Foyston, two; Pearl Dverseth, one; Jennie Game. two; Louie Anderson, one; Leila Will cox, one.
 When the children from the other buildings came up the second graders agreed that as new pupils" they should be given places at the upper end of the spelling line. There they worked hard, headmarks being won by Minnie Dooley, Alberta Mosser and Robbie Henderson.
 Mrs. Day, Mrs Downing and Mrs, Foyston were visitors in our room this week.
 The kindergarten has received it's first pet this week, it being a wooden parrot. It stands on it's perch and looks out of the window all day long It is white with red wings and we have named it Polly. MT. Goodman made him for us and we all thank him very much.
 We also have two lovely new plants in our room. Mrs. Swanson brought them to us.
 On Friday we painted our pumpkins we made out of clay. We painted them bright orange and as soon as they are dry we are going to take them home We also decorated cards with oul names written on them. We posted them under each hook in the cloak room so we will know just where to hang our coats and caps.

HIGH LINE PLANS
CORN SHOW To Be
HELD THIS FALL
Location of Northern Montana
Exposition May Be Set (.
tied by Lot.
Special to The Tribune.

Special to The Tribune.
Havre, May 12.-County agents and
various county farm bureaus are max
ing tentative plans for a corn show
to be held in northern Montana on the
high line this fall. Those in charge
Of the program believe that the corn
show can be made an annual affair in
which all counties having county agents
will take part and pay their part OF
their expense.
The place of holding the show will
probably be determined by lot and each
county will have an opportunity by
a program of rotation. Among its
many advantages the show would give
farmers a chance to display seed corn
they have for sale, thereby building
up the supply of home grown seed OF
an earlier maturing variety.
Corn is becoming one of northern
Montana's safest and surest crops and
it is predicted that it will not be long
before corn will be n Of the main
crops.
Special emphasis will be placed on
pure seed corn of q variety adapted to
northern Montana conditions. North
western Dent and Minnesota IL have
been found to be the best varieties for
silage and fodder purposes and Flint
corn such as Dakota White, Gehu Flint
and Squaw corn, best early maturing
varieties.
Counties which are interested in
these plans are Hill, Blaine, Phillips.
Roosevelt, Daniels and Valley.

Harding Bonus Views
to Be Made Public
After New Jersey Trip

Washington. May 12.-Transmission
by President Harding of his views on
pending soldiers bonus legislation to
republican members of the senate
finance committee will await the re-
turn of the executive from his week
end trip to New Jersey, it was said by
Senator Watson of Indiana, one of the
republican committee members, after a
conference at the White House.
Senator Watson said the president
and majority members of the COM
mittee were not far apart on the bonus
matter and indicated that further con-
~ferences would be held before the presi-
dent presented his views. Mr.. Harding
was also represented as feeling that,
inasmuch as his letter would be in the
nature of a public statement of his
position, he should give it most careful
study.

WAR COSTS, PAST AND FUTURE.

I out of the railroad business in the
| country, except for its supervision
| through the agency Of the Interstate
| commerce commission. The losses due
| to government operations during and
Immediately after. the World war were
a tremendous item which had to be
met by the taxpayers. Also, the loss
in the government shipping business
was enormous. This loss still exists,
but is very much lower than hereto
fore.
Outlay for tho Army
The army alone will cost almost as
much for the year 1922 as the normal
expenses of the government-the ex-
tive work. The figure for this latter
business is placed roughly at $780,
100000, while the support of the army
in all of it's branches will cost about
$425, 100000.
The navy, due to the agreement be-
tween the powers of the world to
limit the size Of naval ornaments, will
cost considerably less than the army,
but still in the neighborhood of a third
of a billion dollars. The heavy items
of battleship and other naval construcA
ton are shorn from the expense, but
it remains sufficiently heavy to cause
q DIT or CnlnKlu&
The income the government will re-
ceive from scrapping batleships will
offset to some extent the naval appro-
priation. Thousands and thousands of
tons of the highest grade steel and no
little amount Of brass will be retrieved
from the ships which are strapped, and
this metal will bring in some money.
However, the value Of the materials is
very low as compared to the cost Of
building a battleship, and the return
on the materials Of the dismantled
masters of the sea may prove very
disappointing from that angle.
If the bonus bill becomes a law
the house already has passed it-con-
gress will have to turn it's attention
anew to the question of raising funds.
The members of congress are faced
with offending the strong factions of
ex-service men by refusing to vote for
a bonus payment of some sort, on the
one hand. and the certain antipathy of
the public generally against levying
greater taxes on business and on indi-
viduals.
There have been so many conflicting
estimates of how much the bonus would
cost the government that it is i'm
possible to tell accurately what the
book would amount to-. Because of
this. it is impossible to lay out the
theory of new taxation legislation which
would prove adequate to meeting the
additional strain on the treasury. A
sales tax has been suggested repeat
eddy, but whether such q tax could be
imposed and by itself offset the bonus
is q question which has ardent sup
porters on both sides.

Quick
Record Is Made on
Sweet Grass Farm

Sweet Grass, May PA quick ger
mination record has been made at
Sweet Grass on the "E. "" farm east
of town. A week ago Friday, l.. Fross,
owner of the farm, drilled in 10 acres
of sweet clover, and on the following
Tuesday a large percentage of the
sweet clover seeds had terminated.
Just after drilling, a heavy rain came
on making ideal conditions for the
clover, which terminated in less than
five days. Usually sweet clover on dry
land terminates in about two weeks,
and then many seeds fail to sprout
until later on in the summer.

Winnett, May 12.-Total shipments
of crude oil from the Cat Greek and
Antelope Greek fields out Of Winnett
for the first seven days of May were
15S cars. If this rate of shipment OBJ
tains throughout the month of May, .
record higher than that of the proceed
ing month of April will be set. The
April shipments set a new high record
of 653 cars, or 10000 barrels of
crude oil. New wells are being drilled
into production in these fields each
week, and the shipment of crude bids
fair to increase steadily each month.

Lewistown, May 12.-Aftcr Mrs.
Annie Lokajicek, who on Wednesday
at Denton shot and killed her two chill
dren and shot her husband, Frank
Lokajicek in the head, had been taken
to the asylum Friday, the husband was
brought in from Denton and placed in
a local hospital, where a close examin-
alton Of his wound was made. 1t was
found that the bullet entered the left
side of the head, near the temple, but
instead Of entering the bone structure
had glanced straight downward, final
ly lodging back of the throat, after it
had been cut in three pieces by contact
with the bone. 1t was the opinion of
the surgeons that MI. Lokajicek would
probably recover, provided complica-
tons did not ensue. No attempt will
be made to remove the bullet for three
or four days.
