Dear Folks: How would you like
to have, say starting October 1, a
brief descrition, once a week, of
some useful, attractive thing that
can be made at home and given to
some kin or friend at Christmas?
I'd be glad to do this if you are
interested. Let me hear from you
on this subject. It will mean work
and L don't want to take up your
space with this unless you are real
ly interested. Of course, I'll be glad
to answer questions also as to what
can be bought in the stores.
Cordially,
AUNT JULIA.
Mary Belle: If you will keep
bottle of vinegar handy and after
you wash the dishes rub your hands
thoroughly with the vinegar you
will find that they will look much
better. Let me suggest that you
scrape and stack your dishes and
then do your homework, returning
to your dishes after the sweeping
and busting. Your hands are soft
and tender after being in soapy wa
ter and only too easily take in the
dust. That is what cracks the skin
and gives your hands a rough and
grimey look.
Tessie: Blue for a girl and pink
for boy has always been the GUS
tom, but if you like both I think
you will be very foolish not to use
both colors.
Bonnie b.: Truly, my dear, the best
dressed girls never puffed their hair
out until they looked like mon
strosities. The hair fluffed out softly
and about half covering the ears is
the best style.
New Mother: Of course, dear girl,
you can make a nursery of any
room, and there need not be such
great expense. First, paint your
woodwork white. Have your walls
plain cream or light gray. Have
dark shades that you can lower
when necessary, but in the daytime
have all the sunlight you can and
all the fresh air. 1 would use mus
lin curtains. There is a ducky Gre
tonne with Mother Goose figures
that you can use for side curtains.
Use your closet shelves for bed
ding and the lower row for toys,
and the baby's clothes can go in a
cretonne covered box. I'll be glad
to send you samples.
Eunice: Yes, girls of eleven do
use a plain barette to catch their
hair at the side of the front. They
oct from so cents UP for good ones.

for 1920.
Total Cost Per Acre-Add together
the per acre cost Of all the items
listed above and the sum will be the
total cost per acre.
Cost Per Pound-Divide the total
cost per acre by the yield per acre
and the result will be the cost per
pound.
Example,: To illustrate the method
of making the calculation we will
assume that on certain farm the
following conditions existed:
Wages, 81 per day.
Eight hundred pounds of fertilizer
per acre at $3.50 per ton.
Land rent, 81 per acre.
Demonstration, 10 per cent Of gross
receipts.
Yield, $50 pounds per acre.
Selling price, Is cents per pound.
The cost Of producing the above
crop would be determined as follows:
Man labor, 40.3 days at ST.. $4,000
Mule labor Q-3 of man labor. 13.43
Fertilizer, 800 pounds (0.4 toni
at $3.50 per ton. .......... 1900
Land rent, acre at 81 per acre 700
Demonstration 90 per cent Of

Other costs average for 1920. 1874
Total cost per acre. .$92.17
Cost per pound, $92.17, divided by

Birdmen Say Cities Need Mark
ed Landing Fields to
Guide Pilots.

Kalispell, June 3.-Driving a Curtis
CO biplane, c. l.. Langdon and W. f.
Anderline reached Kalispell Wednesday
forenoon from Spokane. They came
over Wallace, Idaho. and then up the
valley of the Clark's Fork, making one
stop, at Plains. The trip from Spo-
kane, estimated at about 24O miles,
was made in 3 hours and Is minutes.
The machine is a powerful one, three
passenger, with a 44-foet spread of
planes and equipped with a 160-horse
power, six-cylinder motor. Discussing
their trip. the pilot spoke of the need
of marked landing fields, explaining
that there was hardly a field aside from
a few Of the larger cities where land
ing fields were marked in a way that
would assure an aerial traveller of the
character of the field. They are max
ing a log of the course from Spokane
and expect to prepare a map showing
the distances. directions and nature and
location of safe landing fields in the
Inland Empire.
In their local flights they work at
1000 to 1900 feet above the city but
in cross country travelling an elevation
of from 1900 to 1900 feet above the
land contour is maintained to avoid
erratc air currents and varying ground
winds.
Under favorable circumstances the
machine is capable of a speed in the
neighborhood of 100 miles an hour,
although it's rated speed is S7h miles.
On their Spokane trip they averaged
about so miles for the entire distance.

Special to The Tribune.
Havre, June SOLICITATIONS of in
nocence made by a man named Warder,
convicted of murder and sentenced to
hang, while he was under the influ-
ence of ether at Sing Sing prison, news
of which was carried in the press dis
patches recently, recalled to the mind
Of Joseph Kirschwing of Great Falls,
former representative and sheriff in
was used to determine the guilt or in
nocence of q man convicted in that
county.
During the time Mr.. Kirschwing was
sheriff some IA years ago, George
Hliboka was convicted of the murder
of John Sidlack on the highway be-
tween Sand Coulee and StOckett. Three
attempts to save his life through pleas
of insanity were made, the last one
successful, and the murderer was sent
to Warm Springs, where later he met
death at the hands of a guard.
While he was held in Jail and his
attorneys were trying to have him pro-
nounced insane for six weeks HHboka
never spoke. Sheriff Kirschwing con-
ceived the idea of using ether to find
out whether the man could speak and
If he was the murderer.
After considerable struggle DR..
Leroy ~Southmayd succeeded in admin
istering the ether and when the man
was thoroughly under the influence he
spoke for the first time in six weeks
and the first thing he sad was: my
God. Poor John. Poor John. Poor
John. I'm sorry l killed you"
1t is believed to have been the first
time ether was used for such a pur-
pose. In the hearing on the question
of sanity. however. the court would not
permit the introduction Of testimony
relating to the experiment
Mr.. Kirschwing was in Havre Fri
day on business.
