from the Latin and Greek. There Is a
Greek word meaning ito throw" from
which the above words are believed to
have come, the inference being that
dancing was at first considered
jumping around or throwing the limbs
about. At the present time the word
''ball" is limited to the more formal
social gatherings for the purpose OF
dancing.

A ENCOURAGEMENT THAT PRESI.
4 dent Harding is to run for re-
election is the outstanding piece of
news Of the past few days. A state
ment to that effect was issued by At
torney General Harry NJ. Daugherty,
the cabinet minister who Is known to
be most closely In touch with the
Presidents personal thoughts, the
other day in Florida.
The statement is based on no rumor
OF dubious authenticity On the con-
trary Mr.. Daugherty set the stage
for his pronouncement by formally
calling In the reporters who are trail
Ing Harding on his southern tour and
telling them OF the decision, right after
he had been closeted with the Presl-
dent.
Along with the declaration came a
hint as to the grounds on which Mr..
Harding will seek reelection. They
are four In number. as follows: Taxa
ton. law enforcement, the record of
the Department of Justice Indicating
that attacks on him are to continued
and the question as to whether this
government will continue to hew along
the lines as laid down by the Constitu-
tion or listen to the policies advanced
by foreign theorists.
The first three policies are con-
sidered as measures to forestnll at
tacks on the administration by the
Democrats while the last issue is
aimed at rival candidates who may ap-
pear In his own party. Only one
serious candidate looms as rival
within Hardlng's own ranks, according
to those close to Mr.. Harding, Senator
Robert NJ. LaFollette, the Wisconsin
politician who has disputed for the
nomination In every fight since 1912.
Hiram johnson, Of California, is
thought to have been eliminated when
his friends and financial hackers, VIII
liam Wrigley. Jr.. OF Chicago, Alexan-
der P. Moore, Of Pittsburgh, and A. d.
Lasker, were brought into the Harding
encourage after the last election. Mr..
Moore now II ambassador to Spain
while Mr.. Lasker Is member Of the
Florida houseboat party and chairman
of the shipping board.
Harding will open his prediction
campaign this summer, according to
present plans, when he will make a
speaking tour on a trip to Alaska
across the country, going by the north
ern route and returning by the south
ern. Speeches In the principal cities
with addresses to the farming COM
munities now are being planned.

nNE Of those rare utterances by Sec
" rotary of State Charles e. Hughes
was made the other day, to a delega-
ton Of women seeking to have this
country recognize the Russian govern
ment, In which he bluntly stated that
there seemed little immediate chance
for the United States to enter into
friendly relations with those at the
head of the soviet. His statement
was to the effect that Russia would
have to show an honest desire to
accept its obligations and pay Its debts,
and to cease antagonizing other gov
ernments by fostering social revolu-
lions outside of its own borders be-
fore 1t could be admitted to the con-
cert Of nations. He asserted that this
government desired to help Russia to
Its feet but that 1t must first see a
basis Of helpfulness. Recent changes
by the Lenln regime have been a step
In the right direction, declared Mr..
Hughes, but they have been so far
from being adequate that they could
not be considered seriously as the
basis for friendly approach by the
United States.
Quoting Zinoviev, Lenln and Trotz-
ky's words where they assert the Rus
sian political situation merely is the
beginning Of world revolution, Mr..
Hughes BADLY stated: II desire to
see evidences Of the abandonment Of
that policy"

This joint committee prepared a

1t to the President for amendment and

lively ructions. Now, however, the
President has returned the reorganiza-

SPRAY TREES AND
GROW COODAPPLES
STATE ORCHARDISTS ADVISED
TO CHECK PESTS EARLY AND
TO PRUNE OLD TREES
Board Of Horticulture Says Nothing
But Good Fruit Will Pass This
Year; Fruitgrowers Advised to be
Careful.

O~rchardists in Montana are strong
ly advised to spray their trees thor
oughly to kill pests which may be
present. In order to have as much
high class fruit as possible and a
minimum amount of cullS and in
fected fruit, the growers of Montana
need to control especially the apple
scab, the blister mite, the oyster she'll
scale and the codling moth. de-
clares the Montana board of horti-
culture.
Those possessing old and neglected
trees should give them a severe prun-
ing before attempting to spray, since
it is practically impossible to secure
satisfactory control of pests and dis
eases in orchards which have been
neglected and allowed to grow a
great amount of wood and brush.
While it Is not the desire of the
board to cause any waste, the good
of the fruit industry demands that
seriously infested fruit be kept off
the market this fall. 1t is not a
hardship on the growers to spray,
for by spraying the quality Of the
crop will be raised and the amount
of money secured for it by the pro-
ducers will be increased. Further
more, u state law refuses to allow
the shipment of fruit affected with
dangerous diseases or pests and since
the fundamental reason for this law
is the protection of the fruit industry
no one must expect to ship fruit
which will lower the standard of
grades or imperil the industry.
Special attention will be given by
the state horticulturist's office to all
inquiries for information regarding
pruning and spraying.

Find Snake in Motor Hood

One prominent young Musselshell
mar had an experience the other day
that for a few minutes convinced him
he chad EN-"
He had left his car in a public
park, and upon returning to it he
heard a peculiar Kissing noise. On
opening the hood he found a large
bull snake coiled around the car
buretor and spark plugs. At first
the young man believed he must be
"seein' things" but after he had
some friends and had been as
sured the snake was a reality, he re-
covered his equanimity.
The snake, apparently, had be-
come much attached to the jitney
and all attempts to coax it away we're
ruthless. It crawled under the foot
but finally a boy grabbed it
by the tail and pulled it from under
the car.

WASHING THE CREAM
SEPARATOR
BY j. A. Nelson
Montana State College


In general, the average housewife
considers that washing the separator
once each day is sufficient, and in
fact a large per cent of cream separa-
tors are washed but once a day. The
separator should be washed after
every separation, chiefly for three
reasons.
First-To produce a good clean
cream. It is impossible to produce
cream Of low bacterial count by sep
arating the mornings milk through
a bowl that is filthy from the pre-
vious skimming. During the epara
ton process dirt, hair, bacteria,
molds and broken down tissue col
lects In the separator bowl. The
next morning milk is run through
this bowl filled with the filth from
the previous separation. Hence the
resulting cream is not of good sani-
tary quality. This is no different
than the housewife washing her
dishes once a day. How would you
like to eat from a plate that was
not washed since the previous meal?
Even that is not as bad as consuming
cream from an unwashed separator
as there is more filth involved
In the case of the separator.
Second-A separator does not skim
as clean when the bowl is dirty.
Hence there is a loss Of butterfat |
involved. This has been proved by |
several investigators and is to be !
taken into consideration when a ma
chine is not skimming clean.
Third-Cream from a clean separ-
is superior in keeping quality.
When cream is contaminated by a
dirty separator bowl it will sour more
readily than cream from a clean
bowl. Every housewife is anxious
% keep cream sweet so this has a
practical bearing.
The moral is-if you want clean
cream Of good keeping quality, and
avoid excessive fat losses, wash your
separator after each Swimming.

.BOZEMAN'S FAMOUS COW
AND HER WEEKS RECORD

Grace Koningen, famous Holstein
cow bred and owned by the State
college at Bohemian, has set another
state production record and at the
same time q record that places her
among the best cows ever known at
her age. Recently in a milking test
at the college this COW has establish
ed a seven-day record of 1907
pounds of milk and 1881 pounds of
butter. This is the state milk and
butter record for seven days.
There are but four COWS known
to have better seven-day records at
this age, 10 years, and two of these
COWS exceeded Grace Koningen's
record by only a small fraction of
a pound, of butter. Just now the
men of the State college animal hus-
bandry department believe that the
cow will establish another high pro-
duction record for the year. It is
thought possible that this years
record will exceed 10000 pounds OF
milk, which would set a new worlds
record for a COW of this age.
Grace Koningen is getting better
every year in production records.
Two years ago she produced 25,125
pounds of milk and 988 pounds of
butter; last year the record went to
29,647 pounds of milk and 1,164l
pounds of butter. Last years record
was made on four milkings per day.
This was then, and still is, the high
est milk record for any COW owned
by any State University in the United
States. Only recently this wonder
full Holstein COW broke her own pre-
vious days record by producing 1874
of. milk in one day.
This spring Grace Koningen drop !,
ped her seventh calf, a heifer. The
first six calves had been bulls and
the dropping of a heifer this year
brought some satisfaction to the
State College men who wish to con-
the Koningen strain in the
State College herd. The mo-
milk production record makes
