of the county and in fact, one half of
the famous Elk Basin Oil Field is in
this county. Out Of 176 wells drilled
in Elk Basin only four dry holes have
been struck and they have been pump
ing since 1925.
I am perfectly satisfied and con-
tented here and believe that anyone
else can do as well if they just half
try. | used to think, from what I
heard, that the Montana people wore
horns but | have certainly changed my
mind and find they wear smile and
put in good word for everyone. If
anybody don't believe me, or what
have said in this letter, tell them to
write to me and / will tell them the
same thing and if they will come out
here and see our crops in the filed,
they will sure locate here if they have
any money at all. Anyone could easily
come through this country on their
way to the Yellowstone and Glscier
Parks and it sure would be worth
while. My place is only two miles from
Red Lodge and no better than humid
reds of other places ehre and would
like to see more of this good land
bought and homesteaded by good
farmers and that is all we need here.
In going over the county with real
estate man / find that majority Of
the farmers have too many acres as
their places will run from 800 to 5000
acres and that is more than any man
can take care of right. This is nat
ural stock country as we'll as a good
farming country and am sure that
everybody would make more money if
they would try to handle less land
and try to work it better as the soil,
climate and rainfall are ideal, have
good markets for everything raised.
| could write to you all night about
this country but if told you the truth
about it am afraid no one would be-
lieve me or think | was serious so I
will quit now and leave the rest for
them to see themselves. If you want
any other information about my ex-
perience here / will be glad to answer
any question you want to know.

GENUINE LIFE DRAMA
in CHAPLIN PICTURE
"A Woman of Paris" Presents Entire
ly New and Novel Form of Film
Entertainment.

For real, genuine interesting enter
tainment go to the Roman theatre and
see Charles Chaplin's first dramatic
production, "a Woman Of Paris" with
Edna Purviance. This United Artists
attraction, which plays at the Ro-
man theatre Sunday and Monday,
April 27 and %, is one of the real
treats which are so often sought, but
so rarely seen, in pictures.
This poignant drama of life carries
one through a phase Of Partisan life,
following the career Of Marie st. Clair
as though one had known this inter-
esting character one self, that one
feels one is a part of the drama being
enacted.
Even to the end, which has nothing
to do with passionate close-ups, ro-
nance everlasting, but is instead. ut
terly human, reasonable-the after
math Of molten, passionate, much
tried soul. "A Woman of Paris" gives
certain something for the spectator
to take away from the theatre, some
thing to think about--the fact that
life still rolls on around one, much
like the horse-drawn country cart and
the milionaire's limousine.

can look every man straight in the
eys. While / paid only $40 per acre
for this lpace I would not consider
taking 5000 an acre for it right now,
even though there is land just as
good as mine here for sale at less
money. All water for irrigating is
free out here in this country and all
a man has to do is to keep his ditch
es clean and in shape. Water rights
are free and go with the purchase
price of the land. A man can raise
more crops and make more money on
some S25 an acre non irrigated land
than he can on the high priced land
of the Central States.
We have no cyclones or tornadoes
and never have any hot winds and
can sleep comfortably at night with
the covers on. have often read my
newspaper at daylight at nine o'clock
at night. The sunsets are beautiful,
and if | had my way, everybody i'll
Missouri and Kansas would be moving
out here and if they only saw the
country when the crops are growing
they would feel the same way.
The farmers here have found that
the Spokane and Seattle markets are
paying higher prices in netting the
farmers more money for stock than
the eastern markets. All this country
needs, to my way of figuring, is more
farmers because everything else is
here in abundance, including timber,
coal and everything else that per-
son needs.
Mr.. Hymer mentioned to me that
there is still considerable land open
for homestead entry and ii anyone
hasn't got the money to buy farm,
if theyq will write to the U. S. Com
missioner at Red Lodge he will be
able TO fix them out.
A person can BUY land here on easy
terms with small payment down and
the land will pay itself out with just
a few crops. have heard about Mon
tana having the black eye but fail to
see the reason for it. can't see any
reason why a, person would rent or
pay 5000 an acre or more for land
back in the east when they can raise
more out here. There are very few
silos in this country. In fact, there is
none in this 10 ality and it must be
because everybody raises such an a
bundance Of feed both on irrigated and
non-irrigated land.
Our soil is Of two kinds, black
loan and a chocolate sandy loan,
which plows easy and sheds good.
The soil is full of lime and phosphate
and never needs any fertilizer, though
the peas do furnish nitrogen into the
soil. Peas are just as good fertilizer
for the soil as clover.
| have been over Carbon County at
different times of the year and from
my own observation find better crop
raised here than they raise in north
west Missouri and Of many different
varities. One farmer, few miles from
us, raises Concord grapes in his APP
pie orchard. This counties is becoming
one of the leading counties in Mont
ana because it produces better crops
than any other county according to
government reports.

. Nothing else can strike so hard
a blow, or exercise so winning an
influence. Most persons use their
eyes only to see outside, not to
reveal their inner selves, or to
speak a language that is beyond
words. But Napoleon often spoke
more masterfully with his eyes
than with his tongue. / should
not be surprised If there were
words where brain speaks to
brain only through the eyes. How
does q mother converse with her
child before IL has learned to
speak? Through the eye we talk
with dumb animals. and they
understand US.
1t is easy to see how the super.
stition of the "evil eye" arose.
That superstition has played an
immense part in the history of
mankind. One could believe al.
most anything about the power
OF the eye: and the fact which
We now know scientifically, Of
the eyes direct connection With
the brain, does not tend to dimin.
ish the wonder.
A Travellers Tale.
An American traveller has IA.
corded a curious instance OF The
instructive belief of uneducafafl
people in the mystic power Of the
eye. He happened to have a
glass eye, and when he was liv-
ing in Japan he used to take IL
out at night and place It In q
bowl Of water at his bedside.
Presently he began to notice the
extreme respect with which he
was treated by his servants.
Then he found that a crowd
would frequently gather in the
street before his house and stare
at it and at him. Thinking that
they might have evil designs, ne
made inquiries and discovered
that his servants had been telling
their friends that their master
had a magic eye which he took
out at night and placed beside
his bed to keep watch while he
slept
A book on eyes would be very
interesting and very informing.
Consider the many.facettedq eyes
of the fly. It's convex surface Is
covered with so many little Yenses
that, under magnifying glass, it
resembles a heap of minute gems
as the light waves play over 1t.
1t Is a realization of the dream,
which some instrument makers
have had,~ of a telescope COM
posed of vast number of lenses.
all focused at a common point
Such telescope, If practical
might be made of enormous di
mansions, but. then, it would APP
/ pear that the lenses of the fly's
eye all have different focal points.
and the fly sees the surrounding
world multiplied into. hundreds u
juxtaposed images. Perhaps Il
gains something by that Of which
we know nothing.
