MONTANA HER OWN ADVERTISEMENT

Chairman L. w. Hill and other officials of the Great
Northern will, it has been announced, escort a party of
Eastern newspaper writer's through Minnesota, North
Dakota and Montana during the first week Of June, win
the purpose of giving them an opportunity for first-hand
information of the much discussed Northwest. We feel
that these states are fortunate in their investigators. News
paper men have five keenly trained senses that coordinate
to form a sikh. These enable the newspaper writer to
spot truth without an introduction. So far as Montana is
concerned, the truth is good enough. A state with the po-
tential wealth of ours has nothing to fear for its ultimate
destiny. Soil, range, forest, mine and wells each supply
their chapter in the story of future greatness. 1t is hoped
that Mr.. Hill will be able to take these men who see and
think, out into the places where they may behold the con-
crete evidence the Treasure state has to offer; evidence
that will enable them to exercise their vision. Montana of
today is an open book and bids our visitors turn her pages.
The world needs what our state has to offer, which
makes development sure. The job is to speed the day.

4 CANDIDATE WORTHY OF SUPPORT

{ 1t is very gratifying to learn through the Froid Tribune
that J. w. Schnitzler of Froid has decided to accede to the
wishes of his friends and become a candidate for state
senator from Roosevelt county. His home paper warmly
endorses its townsman and recites excellent reasons why
this farmer-banker should receive the solid support Of his
town. 1t is predicted that a great majority of the level
headed voters in all parts of the county, eastend, middle
and westend will find abundant reason to favor his candi-
dacy. The Herald is glad of the opportunity to add its I'M
qualified endorsement Of Mr.. Schnitzler for this office, GER
tain in the knowledge that he possesses the ability to fill it
with distinction and the integrity to remain steadfast to
the interests of the people Of his county.
In announcing his candidacy on the Republican ballot
at the primaries, MI. Schnitzler says he does so with
present activities in this section" he says, merit recogni-
ton, I will assure you sincerely that I will do the legisla-
tive work assigned to me conscientiously, diligently and
without special favor to anyone. If nominated and elect
ed will owe the honor to the voters in general and them
only will | serve"

home in Tennessee for burial. Mrs.
Poore broke down in health while
at Williston, N. Oak. She left that
place last fall for Lewistown where
she has a sister and mother living, IN
hopes of improving her condition,
and while everything that a loving
husband and relatives could do IN
the way of care and medical aid, was
done. her sweet young life departed
this world to a place where the Ills
of the human body and sorrows OF
life are unknown. During her time
spent in Froid she taught school and
was dearly loved by all who knew her
and in her death a dark cloud hangs
heavily over the town and commun-
ity.
Friends here extend to the sor-
rowing husband, her mother, sisters
and other relatives their sincere
sympathy. Mrs. Poore was 26 years
of age.-Froid Tribue.
The above refers to the wife OF Il.
Y. Poore. Mr.. Poore was formerly
a member of the high school faculty

GRANITE HILL IN WYOMING
independence Rock Covers an Area OF
Five Acres and is Three Hun
dred Feet High.

Independence rock, located a few
hundred yards from the right bank of
the Sweetwater river in Wyoming, on
the original Great Salt Lake trail, IS
an isolated mass of clear granite. It's
base covers an area of nearly five
acres and rises to a height of aabout
300 feet.
There is a slight depression on Its
summit, otherwise the rock would be
nearly oval in shape. In the early
days of the trail a little soil, which
had probably drifted into the depres-
sion, supported a few sickly shrubs
and one dwarf tree. The front face
of this ancient landmark, like that
of Pawnee rock, on the old Santa Fe
trail, is covered with the names OF
trappers, traders, emigrants and other
men who supposed that their rude
carvings would immortalize them.
The rock receives its patriotic name
from the fact that many years ago
one Of the first party of Americans
who crossed the continent by the way
Of the Platte valley, celebrated their
Fourth of July at the foot of the now
historic mass of granite. The most
prominent inscription on the face OF
the rock is Independence. Detroit
News.

MONTANA GAS FOR MONTANA

Walter F. Britain, who is interested in the development
of Montana's oil resources and especially those of north
eastern Montana, spent Tuesday in this city talking to
members Of the Commercial club with a view to arousing
interest in the movement to USE MONTANA GAS. He
offers convincing arguments to show that every Montana
made from crude oil produced by Montana's wells. At
present Montana gas consumers are spending about Sl4,-
100000 for gasoline from other states while our own
crude oil goes almost begging for a market. There is no
economic sense or justice in this. The Herald has a copy
of a very able article by Mr.. Britain but is unable to get
it into type this week. It will appear in an early issue.
MI. Britain makes his headquarters at Poplar and with
the help of the Poplar Commercial club hopes to get the
business men Of the state united behind this important
work.

ABOUT OUR WANDERING BOY
Each Generation Believes That the
Next Is the Worst
Ever.

The gray-haired generation Is for
ever taking snapshots at the rising
one. There is an indicated wonder
ment as to the whereabouts of the
wandering boy this evening. Grand
father is blaming the parents. He IS
utterly oblivious of the fact that MS
criticism is a reflection upon his WI
methods of discipline. Boys and girls
have Jared forth at evening in other
generations. They have wandered far.
They will continue the habit as other
generations rise. Do parents nave
any control yer their children? Inc
query has been running for a couple
of thousand years at least and we are
all sure that the boys and girls we
now have are quite the most vicious
and sophisticated the world has eveI
had. We said it of the last generation
and will broadcast it for the next.
tt is the one theme that never falls.-

County Agent Says
Big Corn Increase

Acting County Agent Paugh pass
ed through town Tuesday enroute
to the Volt neighborhood and drop
ped in to talk Corn Show and kim
dred topics. He agrees that put
ting over the Northern Montana
Corn Show for 1924, and making it
an event of the calibre it should be,
will require a vast amount of unit
ed constructive effort. The exact
dates of the show are not yet set.
The best show yet held in the state
is what we should aim at. Not for
the sake of excelling past efforts,
but to do justice to n of the states
most valuable resources. This work
of achieving success rests partly
with the farmers who can do their
part by taking special care with their
corn crop.
MI. Paugh says everything is look
ing fine over the county. He esti-,
mates the increase in acreage of
corn and flax at from 100 to $50
per cent over last year with a cor
responding decrease in wheat. He
expects to continue his work in this
county until July 1st. Dan Noble,
regular agent will be back from his
southern trip about June 10, but
will then go to the encampment of
the State National Guard at Helena,
and will resume his duies July 1.

in themselves, new phase of the agricultural opportunit-
