committee as announced by the com
mittee on committees were Hazel
ker, chairman; Griffin, vice chair
man; Heren, Harmon, Peck, Lowe,
Spear, Clark and J.. H. Stewart.
No argument followed Pauline's
motion to refuse to accept the report
Of the committee on committees as
final, the Senate instead beginning di-
rectly to ballot. Senator Leuthold.
previous to Pauline's motion, moved
for the adoption of the report.
That something unexpected might
develop in committee appointments
was looked for from the night of the
Republican caucus when Senator
Heren, acting as secretary of the
caucus, empowered to appoint the
committee on committees, submitted
the names of Frank Hazelbaker,
Leuthold and Cowan. Two of these
were known to be out of harmony
with administration plans while the
status of the third was undetermined.
Today the advisors of the governor
anxiously waited for the taxation
committee appointments, and appar-
emily were banking on undivided sup
port in segregating this committee in
event it hould appear to be COM
posed Of men likely to thwart certain
taxation plans of the executive.

Farm Bureau Work In Illinois
AS Told By "UncLe Sam Hampton

spirit of good will and true courage.
The secretary of the Farm Bureau
presented an outline of the accom-
plishments of the MARSHALL Putnam
Farm Bureau as follows:
1. Organized ten shipping associa-
tons, which have handled Owe 600
carloads of stock, at a saving of from
40 cents to so cents per hundred
weight, or from $4,000 to $4,000.
2. introduced Kander and Turkey
10-110 winter wheat, with which over
40 per cent of the entire wheat acre
age is now seeded. The inspector
this fall passed $500 bushels of cer-
titled wheat.
8. In part of our work for soil i'm
provement, we have ordered 7,41o
tons of limestone and phosphate.
A. Pooled orders for potatoes and
apples to the extent of 60 car loads.
thus securing them at a fair price.
5. Organized three swine breeders
associations, one Federal Farm Loan
Association, and four Power Spraying
Rings, spraying ia orchards for the
first time.
6. Maintained a serum supply, fur
nishing fresh serum for 1880 hogs,
successfully vaccinated at a cost of
81 cents per head.
z. Held 43 poultry culling demon
Onstrations, with an attendance OF
1850.
8. Instituted a campaign against
tuberculosis in livestock.
8. Have held 353 meetings, with ar
attendance of 1880, of which 1872
were demonstration meetings concern
ing soil improvement, livestock sani-
tation and improvement, seed selec-
ton, use of legumes, proper orchard
care, etc.
10. COoperated with the Illinois
Agricultural Association in gathering
statistics in defeat of tax increases,
as well as cooperating with them
upon public questions helpful to ag-
riculture.
Thus, you see, the Farm Bureau
does not ask the farmers to become
members on promises, but upon &C
cOmplishments. | know the thousands

MONTANABREEDER
At WESTERN SHOW

The entry list of the seventeenth
annual National Western Stock show
tells a wonderful story. 1t is proof
OF the growing Importance of this
great western exposition as an event
worth while in livestock circles.
There will be bedded down in the
spacious barns on the show grounGs
triangle, 1854 individual animals that
are entered in the various classes of
the cattle, swine, sheep and draft
horse divisions of the show. In addi-
ton to these there will be stabbed on
the grounds no less than $50 horses
that will assemble to make the Ma
tional Western Horse Show the most
brilliant equine event ever staged in
the west.
In the pens on the show grounds
there will be on display 231 carloads
of beef, pork and mutton. A part of
the beef display will be delectable
steaks all ready for the epicure, while
others will be beef foundations on
their way to feed lots for the final
finish.
To move to Denver the show cattle,
horses, swine and sheep, will require
no less than 500 standard size railway
cars, which would form over a dozen
long trains. Imagine, if you will, the
value of blooded stock that will roll
into Denver for the week of January
Is to 20, 1923. Hundreds of these
animals will lbe sold during the week
Some will go to the packing houses
others to feed lots, while many Of
them will go forth to stamp their ex.
cellence upon the coming generation;

S. C. Moore, Editor Bozeman Cour-
Ter:
l promised you / would write some
thing about my trip and work in II
linois, and while it is fresh in my
mind, here goes:
The Farm Bureau Of Illinois select
ed me as the campaign manager for
the Marshall-Putnam Farm Bureau
reorganization drive, beginning the
work on November 20, and finishing
on December IL. There are sixteen
townships in the two counties. F.
E. Fuller, formerly extension agron-
omist of Montana, is the farm ad-
wiser, and DR.. E. H. Riley, formerly
livestock specialist, is the assistant
farm advisor. Their office is located
at Henry, Illinois, near the center of
the two counties. The duties of farm
advisor are the same as those of the
county agent in Montana, and are un-
der the control of an executive com.
mittee composed of six farmers.
Each township has a township di.
rector, who functions as organization
manager. In the center of each town
ship is a large township hall, where
all the activities are held. The town
ship is six miles square, and the
town hall is the capitol where the
people vote and hold all their social
and educational gatherings. They
meet on equal terms, with equal free
dom, for it is the house of the people
"a little democracy.
/ made more than a hundred visits
to the farm houses, and spoke in ev-
cry town hall in both counties, lin
ing up from 10 to 16 men in each.
who were instructed as solicitors foy
the organization. The plan provides
for neighbors to sign neighbors, and
thus the Farm Bureau automatically
becomes organized.
On the 18th day of December a gen.
eral get-together meeting was held
at Henry, where all of the township
directors, solicitors and the executive
committee sat down together at a
luncheon, and 245 plates were laid.
Every of these remained in their
seats for five hours, going through a
school conducted by Professor At
wood, of the University of Illinois.
During this session the farmers
themselves stood up and told of the
accomplishments of the Farm Bureau.
More than forty projects were out
lined by the farmers as direct benefits
they had received by cooperation and
membership in the Farm Bureau.
Mr.. w. E. Metzgar, state manager
conducted the school and outlined how
each neighbor can sign up his neigh.
Dor, and at the close of his great
speech 220 farmers signed the join;
agreement and accepted orders to see
all their neighbour in the days fol
lowing.
The speech of Mr.. Metzgar was ,
thrilling story of the big organization
He is a farmer from Macoupin county
Illinois, and once served as farm ad
visor, and knows thoroughly tn,

Human Sacrifices Still
Persist in North Burma

RangOOn, India-Slavery and human
sacrifices still are going on In some of
the mountain districts of northern Bur-
ma, according to the annual report OF
the commissioner of the northeastern
frontier, published by the government
here. 1t is in the territory known as
the Naga hills that the sacrifices take
place. Attempts by the government to
stop these practices have not entirely
succeeded
In a recent government investigation
1t was discovered that human sacrifices
in the Naga hills are never fewer than
from six TO ten a year. Sometimes
when funds are plentiful, the number
in q year is 20 or 30. The most com
mon victims are Indian children, both
boys and girls, kidnapped from Assam,
although any kind of available slaves
may be included in the slaughter.
At the time Of the last government
estimate there were 271 slaves in
Hkampti, against 373 in the previous
year. A few deaths Of slaves had oc-
Cured, but the reduction was mainly
due to slaves redeeming themselves or
being released voluntarily by their
owners.
