tana Democratic candidate for re
election. opened his campaign here
last night. Senator Walsh declared
that he would let his record speak
for itself and that he believed the
people of Montana will not convict
themselves of being indifferent to the
primal virtue of honesty"
Departing from his set speech,
Senator Walsh declared that the
81 statement given out Sunday by Harry
NJ Daugherty, former Attorney Cen
eral. was unworthy of comment"
Daugherty. the Senator asserted,
could do much more to rehabilitate
himself by appearing on the witness
stand and submitting to cross-exam-
ination and by opening his books to
scrutiny than by issuing statements"
The proceedings in the oil lease
investigation, he said, ultimately will
recover for the people section Of

THE ROMANCE IN A BRUSH

The vacuum cleaner, the wash
ing machine and several other ma
chimes have solved some of the most
difficult jobs in every home. After
all the big tasks are not always the
most dreaded, but rather the great
mum Der of small and disagreeable
duties. Because of these countless
time taking tasks we now have
brushes for almost every purpose
about the home. The present day
home, whether modest flat or Il
large residence, is incomplete and
inefficient without its quota of
brushes of various kinds.
From all corners of the world are
gathered together material for the
making of brushes. From Siberia
and Manchuria come the best
bristles; from the interior of Asia,
the best of horse hair; from Mcxi-
60 and Central America, certain
fibers; from Brazil and India, other
kinds of fibers; from Australia, the
hair of goats; and from the forests
Vt our own Northwest and Canada,
rood for handles.
Today might almost be called the
age of the brush. Just as every
man should be thoroughly familiar
with all labor saving devices for
his work, so should every woman
be familiar with the labor and time
saving devices for her home, not
only because they are time and
labobr saving but because her work
can be done so much better. There
are many brushes for personal
uses as we'll as household, but the
household varieties are making
home keeping more efficient and
less of cfore by saving the backs,
hands and fingers of many women.
Truly this is the brush age!

partment of Agriculture, establish
ed that year for the purpose of as
sisting farmers and producers in the
distribution and marketing of farm
products.
Through the assistance of this
bureau 4407 carloads were mar
keted. However the financial de-
preston preceding the outbreak of
lhe World War was reflected in the
prices obtained and the returns were
not profitable but ut least paid
expenses. Thereafter the bureau
functioned annually for the benefit
of the industry.
Starting with 1915 accurate sur
veys were made as to acreage plant
ed and the following figures set
forth the progress and expansion of
fhp industry

This runs the cost into enormous
figures. Therefore high prices are
necessary to realize profit to the
grower.
Reclaim Industry
Again, previous to 1914 land values
were low, rental in proportion, labor
and material as we'll as transporta-
ton rates were about one half of
the present schedules. However, af-
ter following the growth of this
industry it is quite obvious that
some profits must have been realiz-
ed to encourage its growth.
From its birth to and including
1914 the industry was fostered and
followed by American farmers, but
probably due to the hazards in
Volvcd, uncertainties of profits,
tedious as well rs laborious efforts
required to grow and harvest and
the fast increase costs of labor and
materials, they practically abandon.
ed the industry to the Japanese.
They forthwith inauguratcd the sys-

DDS to insure earlier maturity.
However, several American farm
crs stood by the industry, competed
in every detail with the Oriental
and attained not only success but
wealth and since recent legislation
has or will eliminate the alien en-
tircly, it is hoped that this indus
try, the abandoned child of the
American will be reclaimed by its

the history OF the Imperial Val

was written for publication by
l.. C. Seibert of Brawley, an
expert. The first section was
printed yesterday in the Press:
In the spring of 1912 the grow
ers and shippers, realizing its nee
essity, formed an exchange for the
purpose of securing wider and more
intelligent distribution of the ship
ments. Under this system of dis
tribution the crops of 1912 and 1913,
totaling 2S18 and 3434 carloads res
pectively, were marketed with pro
fitable results. The exchange was
discontinued in 1914 with the ad-

Make Some Profit

At the time Of writing this story
the acreag for 1924 is in the course
of planting and 10 accurate esti.
mate is available as to the quantity
however it is generally accepted as
equaling that of 1928.
AS to Irices, the average return
per crate during the years tabUlated
above in almost all instances made
the grower soniJ profit. 1915, 1916
and 1917 covered the period previous
to our entry into the World War
and prices realized were compcnsa-
tion but not regarded as satisfac
tory. The four Years following net
ted large profits, in fact encourag-
ed immense acreage planted in 1922
which resulted in production at
Il time when the entire country suf.
fcfed effects of financial dcpres-
sion. Few growers made profits
some broke even .andr the majority
lost. money.
The 1923 crop consequently was
slightly less in acreage but due to
encouraging prices realized was har
vested in its entirety which accounts
for the total shipments exceeding
the previous years production.
However it might be stated that
previous to 1914, aside from plant
ing the crop early in the season to
preclude possible frost damage,
planting was usually accomplished
between January 25 and March l
and no effort was made to protect
against this element.
But since then the early crops
are Tlanted between December -
and January Is and each Hill or seed
