BIG HORN BASIN
TO BIZ. BEAN BELT
Continued from Pare "

to a Chicago concern at 5 cents.
Since the Great Northern bean, the
variety being sought, has been sue.
cessfully ripened as far up the Val
ley, 1T seems that there is q gre II
possibility for this crop in Park
County. On average soil 1900 pounds
ian be grown on an acre. A ton is
the average for good soil.
Another interesting point to be
considered in bean production is that
only so per cent of the beans con-
sumed in this country are home
grown. The other one-half is import
ed. Tariff of two cents has been
put on beans. 1t is claimed by
by growers that beans can be pro-
duced for this two cent teriff which
at the 8 cent price makes it a splendid
crop. The bean is a heterogeneous
plant which does not rob the soil of
its fertility.
Arrangements are bein gmade in
Billings for 10000 pounds of seed
beans for the county. They are being
quoted at eight and a half cents for
hand sorted seed. This high price
is caused by a shortage of the crop
in the Southwest this season.
1t is evident that q better feeling
exists between farmer and business
man than ever before. 1t is possible
that misery loves company but we
wonder if education isn't showing re-
suits. What is good for the farmer
must be good for the town near by.
Cooperative marketing will make
great strides in 1928. 1t should mean
more dollars to the farmer which will
be put in the bank and used to buy
more goods from the business man.
The business man and the bank will
support the movement.
Will freight rates ever come down
to prewar levels? We hope not be-
cause the trainmen's standard of liv-
ing was too low in those days. 1t
is true he lived a little high and may
still be going a little fast but he eats
and dresses better which makes mar
kets better for the producer. 1t is
the producers job to figure out and
produce those products that pay the
smallest percentage of freight COM
pared to value. A a of honey will
bring $4,000. A a of turkeys is
worth $1,000. A car of Great North
ern beans sells for $500. Butter and
cheese and meat are valuable. Will
we have to give up the hay and grain
and spuds? 1t takes from so to 100
percent of the market value to pay
freight on them.
The sheepmen are buying potatoes
at 20 cents per hundred for feed.
The sheep like them so well that they
will leave the very best alfalfa hay
until the potatoes are cleaned up.
The sheep seem to do very well on
, 1923-03-21

a diet of potatoes and hay. Maybe
the potato slump is a good thing after
all. They r worth$1.3 80 a car when
shipped, so some farmers have found
out.
About 70 farmers in the county
have signed up to enter the corn con-
test. The Burlington railroad is
furnishing the seed. We need 80
more.
Twenty car loads of turkeys and
two million pounds Of beans are the
stakes set by the farmers of Big
Horn Basin in 1923. Only a half of
the beans consumed in this country
are home grown. All of the turkeys
are home grown but only half of the
people eat turkey. There seems to.
be room for expansion.
A lot of the ranchers are talking
of going into the dude business.
There seems to be a scarcity of dudes
The county agent hasn't figured out
a way yet of increasing production
in this line.

O.K.DBY ENGINEERS

An eight-hour working day in con-
tinuous industry was upheld by the
American Engineering Council of the
Federated American Engineering So
cletles at this Mornings session of
us tWo-day meeting at the Cosmos
Club. After a two-year thorough in
Vestlgation throughout the country
the committee, headed by Dr. H E.
Rowe OF this city reported that the
eIsnt-hour working day in the steel
and similar Industries was .economi-
caliy preferable from every angle,
ana the council this morning formal
ly approved these findings. The re-
port contained written approval of
president Harding. which stated that
this represented his social standpoint.
The council also adopted q resolu-
tfon upholding the federal water
power act of 1920, and ordered the
committee in charge to recommend
to President Harding that q trained
personnel be attached to the federal
water-power commission to carry out
the act.
At the annual dinner OF the council,
held last evening at the Chevy Chase
Club, Prince Gelasio Gaetani, the new

er Dose of Logic and Common Sense

Alkali in Shampoos
Bad For Washing Hair

Many soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much free alkali which is
very injurious. as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsifed
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. IL is very
cheap and beats anything else all TO
pieces. You can get Mulsified at any
drug store, and few ounces will last
the whole family for months.
Two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsi-
fled in cup or glass with little warm
water is all that is required. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
the Mulsifed cocoanut oil in. 1t makes
an abundance of rich, creamy lather,
cIeanses thoroughly and rinses out eas.
lily. The hair dries quickly and evenly.
and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy,
wavy and easy to manage. Besides, it
loosens and takes out every particle of
dust, dirt and dandruff. Be sure your
druggist gives you Mulsifed.-Adver.

URGESPURCHASE
AS PARK SPACES
Board of Trade Committee
Cites KIingIe Ford and
Piney Branch Tracts.

Emphasizing that the Klingle Ford
Valley tract and the Piney Branch VAL
ley tract are forever lost If not acquired
now, the executive committee of the
Washington Board of Trade yesterday
adopted a resolution urging with all
possible earnestness' that the recon-
mendation of the budget bureau as
transmitted by the President to Congress
for the acquisition of these properties
be provided for in the pending District
| OF Columbia appropriation bill.
IF action could be deferred" said
! the resolution, I'VE would not urge
this matter now when financial con-
ditions are unfavorable, but it cannot
acquired now. We regard 1t as by
all means the most urgent and critt-
cal of all the projects relating to the
National Capital Park system.
I'VE most respectfully insist that
a vital mistake will be made IL the
ford tract are not acquired at this
time.
Extension of Parkway Urged.
1--WE regard the extension of Piney
Branch parkway east Of the Tlger
bridge on 10th street as an absolutely
essential feature of the park system
continued the resolution, land the de-
struction of the remaining forest
trees and the filling of this valley on
the east side of this bridge, so as
to completely close the east archway
of the bridge, would be nothing less
than a calamity; that this is an es-
sential link and the natural connec
ton between Rock Creek Park and
the Anacostia River Park; also that
continuing the park driveway up TO
the Piney Branch valley through the
arch of the bridge will furnish con-
tinuous park driveway Tor al tne
great section between Rock creek
Park and the eastern line of the Dis
trict, so that the great population OF
that section will then have con-
tinuous park driveway down lne
Piney branch to Rock creek and down
Rock creek to the Potomac river and
Potomac Park.
This Piney Branch parkway will
also cross and connect with the pro-
Jected fort boulevard a short distance
east Of Brightwood. The obstruction
Of this Piney Branch valley is now
proceeding so rapidly that IT Is abb,
solutely essential to acquire 1t now
or forever lose it,
Provisions of Bill Considered.
The executive committee made a
comparison between the provision in
the District bill as passed by the
House and the estimates and recon-
mendations 3 Ibmitted by the budget
bureau. OF three recommended
paragraphs relating to the park sys-
TEN of the district, the first was re-
tanned.
1t Is "to enable the commission
created by section % of the public
buildings act. approved March 4.
1913, to continue proceedings toward
the acquisition of lands required for
a connecting parkway between Poto-
mac Park. the Geological Park and
Rock Creek Park, SIS, 1000"
The second, dealing with improve
ments of the park system OF the Dis
trict, was stricken out on the floor
