off and the worse off,; understand
ing between those who employ and
those who are employed. Under
standing between all these is possible
but understanding IS impossible be-
tween the Bourbon and the radical.
Accordingly, a contribution on our
side to understanding is the avoid
ance of Bourbonism.
Some of us may well re-examine our
conception of property rights. If those
who own property and those who are
charged with its conservation recog-
nize this fact: That property-right is
best defended, not on grounds of ira
ditiOn, but IN grounds of usefulness,
there is a chance, through open-mind-
ed discussion, for understanding be-
tween them and those who vote. On
the other hand, with the Bourbon who
holds that property-right, unchanged
BILE in all its aspects, is not discussable
in any aspect there is no chance for
understanding. There is chance for
clash. He promotes the class con-
seriousness that is his danger and the
danger of those whose business it is
to conserve property into the future.
Is it possible, in the second place,
that some of us may well re-examine
our conception of free speech? Thus
also we may help, each his mite, to
avoid misunderstanding between Bour-
bon and radical. Some of us would find
ourselves assuming free speech as the
right of those who accept the political
and social institutions in which we
believe. Whereas the fact is, of
course, that free speech, short of in
element to law-breaking, is the right
Of all of us. 1t is the right of the
communist and the socialist as much
as 1t is the right of you and me. If
we who believe in our political and
social institutions recognize this fact:
That free speech, short always of in
element to law-breaking, is the right
of those whose ideas we dislike not
less than of those whose ideas we
like, we promote understanding.
Indeed, let us go farther and say that
we had better abate somewhat Of
zeal for repressive legislation. Gov
eminent by falling can put out the
communist and the socialist, but can
put down communism or social
ism. That is the task of those who
think straight and discuss generous
nindedly.

Eye Preservation
DOn'ts Are Listed
BY ID. C.. Committee

Here are few cautions suggested
by the local lighting educational COM
mlttee, which is conducting cam
paign for the preservation of eyesight
by proper use of lights in the schools
and in the homes.
Don't judge the amount of light in
a room by the brightness of the bare,
unshaded bulbs. This is the indica-
tion of glare.
Don't expose your eyes to unshaded
lights. That may cause eye-strain.
Don't read while facing a bright
light or sunny window. Have the
hight come from beside you or over
your shoulder.
Don't use bright lights against a
dark background
Don't try to read in dim light
that tires your eyes.
Don't let your lighting equipmen
get oirty. Clean il regularly. Dust
and dirt may cause you to lose as
much as one-half or even three -fifths
of the light that the bulbs produce
and that you are paying for.
Don't depend on taking out light
oulbs to connect appliances and port
able lamps. Have convenience out
let's put in for this purpose.
Don't be Indifferent to the preser-
walton of your eyesight.
PROPER lighting requires two things:
First, that there be enough light so
that the eye can see quickly and easi-
iy, and second. that this light be
shaded and so placed in the room that
the eye is not strained by glare. Many
homes have soft, shaded light that is
too dim for good vision; others have
enough light but harmful glare is a
part of it; too few homes have plenty
of light without glare. which is nee
essary for proper lighting and the
protection of eyesight

REALTY SALESMAN'S
REQUIREMENTS LISTED
Success of Firm Depends Upon EN-
ployment of Right Type, r.
L. McKeever Declares.

Real estate craftsmanship requires
naturalness, common sense, applica-
ton and common honesty, according
to II. L. Mckeever. local realtor, who
discussed the subject of Real Es-
tate Sales before the Y. NJ. G. A. class
in real estate this week. 1T was
pointed out by Mr.. Mckeever that
there are four fundamental steps in
selling; namely. securing the favor
able attention of the prospect, devel-
oping his interest, creating a desirn
to possess, stimulating decision and
directing consummation.
The modern sales organization can
be successful only to the extent that
the supervision and management of
it is intelligently and consistently
applied. 1t is to the salesmanager
that the salesman looks for inspira-
tion and incentive. In addition to be-
ing thoroughly conversant with his
properties. he must be of a distinct
type of personality that inspires con-

fidence and energy among those whom
he directs.
1t is largely through the develop.
ment of a sales department, Mr.. Nc.
Keever said, that the other depart
ments of a real estate Office grow
The activities of the sales department
brings the organization in touch with
large numbers of people and natur-
ally attracts business for the rent
insurance and loan departments.
The modern sales organization Is
run on a definite and systematic basis
Regular scheduled meetings of the
entire staff are held for the purpose
of familiarizing the statesmen with
the properties on the market and
instructing them in the various tech
nical phases of real estate work.

SHERIDAN COUNTY PLANNING
CAMPAIGN AGAINST COYOTES

Farmers and ranchers throughout
Sheridan county are cooperating
with the United States biological de-
partment and the state fish and
game commission in an effort to ex-
terminate coyotes in that part of the
state. Coyotes there have appeared
in such numbers as to prove a grave
menace to sheep and turkeys and the
annual damage has been large in
past years.
Both state and federal authorities
are cooperating to the extent that
together they pay one-half of the sal
airy of a man in charge of the cam
paign and they will also furnish free
poison. According to the federal
plan, coyote determination is being
carried on in this name on a very
large scale and with decided success
in other parts of the state. One
hunter covers a large district, and
the pelts secured become the property
of the association or group which has
charge of the campaign and which
pays the hunter. This makes the
cost very small, and in many cases
the revenue obtained through the
sale of pelts has completely betrayed
the salary of the hunter. A county
meeting will be held in the very near
future to consider definite plans for
starting the work.

BUFFALO INCREASING In
LARGE NUMBERS AT The.
FEDERAL GAME RESERVE

What to do with about ESQ Amer
lean bison and a like number of elk,
each year, is a problem confronting
officials of the United States biolog-
ical survey, under the direction of
which the national bison range in
western Montana is conducted, ac-
cording to Frank Rose who is warden
of the big game refuge.
So rapidly have the herds of buff
falo and elk increased on the $4,000
acre range between Missoula and
Poison that there is grave danger of
the native grasses being destroyed,
unless portions of the elk and buff
falo are disposed of.
Provisions will be made therefore
to remove the surplus elk to other re-
serves, but the buffalo, unless re-
moved to public parks and zoologi-
cal gardens throughout the country.
will be slaughtered and the meat
sold on the market this fall, Warden
Rose stated.
There are at present 1,40O big
game animals ranging in the refuge,
700 buffalo, 500 elk and the re-
mainder in deer and mountain sheep,
and room is to be made for a flock
of antelope.
The surplus may be purchased by
individuals, societies or municipal
ties for exhibiting purposes, at a
small cost.

Sires Being Added to Herds of
Dairymem Inn The Yellowstone Valley

veloped and more farmers are taken
into the circle. AS has been said,
there are now "a bulls so distributed
among farmers of the Yellowstone
valley. All that is required of the
farmer is that he keep accurate and
careful records; he receives the SER
vices of the bull without cost. With
in a few months seven more bulls
will be put out, and it is expected that
the increase will continue at the
rate of. IL to Is each year. At the
present time, the bulls in service are
used in 56 herds and serve $50 head
of cattle. Bulls that reach the prov
en- sire class, are worth several thous-
and dollars each and yet the farmers
cooperating in this work, receive
their services without charge.
The five years that have already
been spent in this work in Montana
have been largely devoted to getting
the undertaking started. 1t is expect
ed that it will require a period of 40
to SO years to accomplish the hoped
for results of developing cattle that
can be depended upon to transmit
high milk producing qualities. Re
suits from the first generation of
offspring r just beginning to come
in, and those in charge of the work
are satisfied that the first great step
in this important work has been sue
cesfully taken.

HOLDS
CORN TESTS

~ ORN variety tests are being car
ried on in seven communities il
~ Roosevelt county this year, in
which IL strains of the best corr
that has been produced in the county
are being grown side by side under
exactly the same tillage conditions.
The names of the farmers conduct
ing these variety tests are: Ben
Smith, Divide community; Earl Malt
by, Wide Awake community; I. W.
Buchanan, Mineral Bench commur-
ity; Charels Hawkins, Lenark COM
munity; William Irish, Be Square
community; Anderson Brothers, Pi-
oneer community; and John Dorgan,
Pershing community.
County Agent Dan B. Noble in dis
cussing these tests, says: "The great
est results obtained from these tests
are the observations along about ma
turing time, the state of the plant,
characteristics of which show great
variations, and the final check up on
grain and fodder yield when the corn
is harvested. 1t is impossible for
corn to be compared where it is rails
ed under different conditions, and
people are prone to pass judgment
on such comparison. The only way
to get reliable data from these diff
ferent strains of corn and to compare
them is when they have been raised
under exactly the same conditions"

Crago animal trap, a purely Montana
invention, which combines very light
weight with immense holding power
and a high catch, catching tn body in
fifty per cent of the cases.
The company on this recent occa-
sion exhibited two sizes of traps,
their No. 4, weighing 6% ounces, for
mink, marteen, and other small ami
mails, and their No. 7, which is used
for coyote, beaver, and larger game,
and weighing two pounds.
The headquarters of this COM
pany is located at 108 Spruce street,
Missoula, Montana, while the fac
tory is at Toledo, Ohio, in conjunc-
ton with the Bingham Stamping &
Tool company's plant.
expositionohtile edanynesbd shmht
The attendance at the Seattle ex-
position was owe 100000 for the six
days, being an average of $1,000 for
each day, and of this enormous crowd
there were trappers from Alaska,
and almost every part of the north
west, who visited tn booth and mar
veled at the performance of this new
principle in animal traps.
For a period of eighty years all
animal traps have worked on the
basic principle of jaws closing
the same way. The Crago trap has
completely revolutionized the trap
idea, and it is the porduct of the mind
of an old Montana trapper.
