the commercial standpoint may be
inferred from the statement recent
ly made, that Montana shipped over
two and a half million pounds Of
poultry to the markets of Chicago,
New York, Boston, Philadelphia and
Los Angeles. Saltwater county alone
expects to send out a carload of
capons this year. Other. counties
which have increased production are
Carbon, Yellowstone, Cascade, Pond
era, Phillips, and Valley.
Miss Cushman has been conducting
caponizing demonstrations, that were
well attended. She claims that Jan
in weight above other fowls, and this
extra weight together with their su-
perior quality will net the seller from
10 to 20 more cents a pound. Miss
Cushman further says the best time
to market capons is during January,
February and March.

In an address gwen in this state
within the last month, the speaker
gave as the reason for the increase
of divorces, the lack of religion, and
the economic independence of women
A Isl illustrating the latter was
brought up in n of the courts.
The woman in the case asked for a
divorce, giving as one of her reasons
that her husband allowed her but
four dollars a year since 1919. II
could scarcely be claimed this woman
was economically independent, YET
she earnestly craved a separation

her. What her religious sentiments
were is not known. 1t would require
considerable faith, hope, and char
ity to be r~econciled to living with &
man who so interpreted his marriag,
vow to endow her with all his world

A Great Falls professional maj
once told me he had an old aunt VI
in New Hampshire welded to
wealthy man, "and," said he, "I d,
not believe she ever had a dollar il
all her married life" This woman
did not apply for a divorce, she wa
too cOwed for that-or perhaps he
religious belief enabled her to endur
such slavery. However objectionabl
divorce may be it is better than tn

of helping to reform without antag-

in contact. Her death a few years
