DAIRY EXPERT TO
HOLD MEETINGS IN
COUNTY IN FEB,

Dairy meetings will be conducted in
Carbon county next month under the
direction of the Smith-Hughes depart
ment of the Carbon County High
School. A dairy expert will be avail
able for the meetings in this county
February 7, and 9.
Prominent business men and farm
ers have long thought that Carbon
county is logical place for a dairy
center The meetings scheduled to
take place in the county will give the
farmers and business men an oppor-
tunity to meet and discuss the PROPOSE
ton with Mr.. Astroth, extension
dairyman, and possibly organize to
promote interest in dairying Mr.. As
troth is practical dairy farmer from
Wisconsin. He is spending only
twelve days in Montana and Carbon
county is fortunate in obtaining him
for about three days, His subject will
probably be Developing the Dairy
Industry in Carbon County," The
subject will give Mr.. Astroth a chance
to cover all phases of the dairy in
dustry and give the farmers an op-
portunity to ask questions on the sub
ject.
Tentative plans have been made fol
the meetings which are as follows
February 7, Bridger; February 8, Rob
erts and February 9, Red Lodge. Bel
Try may later be nI.,ssas -, aat
ing place.
Any other communities that woulc
like to have Mr.. Astroth discuss dairy
ing should get into communication
with the agricultural department OF
the high school at Red Lodge before
January 80.

have done and are still doing good
work for the welfare and advance
ment of the county, as it's people are
well aware. They know the county's
needs and they have the public spirit
and ability to untangle the many in
tricate problems that are placed be-
fore them.
So considering the fact that there
are 1853 county commissioners in Mon
tana, such reflections speak for them
selves, but it should be a matter of
qualification to all our people, regard
less of party, to know that Carbon
County's commissioners are held in
such high esteem and that their abil-
tiles are so signally recognized by the
other commissioners of the state.

TAKE WARNING.

i AA Il w AININllN0.
He rented some rooms
In the O'Shea Flats,
Then he sent for his wife
And their two little brats
And he said "By gosh,
Why ding my cats,
They amt no place
Like Red Lodge"
When Spring arrived
With it's birds and bees
He dreamed of q fortune
Like Old John DIS
So he leased some land
Which he sowed in Peas,
On Jim Virtues place
Near Red Lodge.
When his peas got ripe,
And the viner came,
He harvested the things,
Till his back was lame,
And he got more checks
Than he could name,
From the Cannery
At Red Lodge.
At the end Of the year
When he figured his bal. :
He said to his wife, i
"We're so rich, old gal,
We can spend our winters
In southern CAL, q
For it's too darn cold,
In Red Lodge"
His daughter wound up
In Hollywood,
Where she did many things,
No good girl should,
If you ask what they were
You can rap on wood
For it won't be printed
In Red Lodge.
And his son formed habits
That were so bad,
With booze and women
He blew what he had,
And to make things worse
He broke his dad,
AS he spent what he made
In Red Lodge.
And his wife bought herself
A high powered car,
And she set 'em all a pace
Like drunken tar,
And then she ran away
With a movie star,
Like we see at the shows,
In Red Lodge.
The old man strolled,
Towards the briny deep,
Where he stood for a while,
Where the banks were steep,
Then he jumped in a hole,
Forty-fve feet deep,
Because he had left,
Red Lodge.
So this is the end
OF my story sad,
Of a boy and girl
And their Ma and Dad
Yes, a whole dam family
That went to the bad,
When they moved away
From Red Lodge.

delightful little drawing room, where
Rodin must have entertained his
friends. More formal in its furnish

is, because of its coloring, much
gayer, more cheerful room.
Walls Are Simple.
The walls are simple and paneled
with narrow holdings which cut the
spaces into interesting designs.
Painted a clear canary yellow, they
furnish a most delightful background
for the old painted and mahogany fur
niture of the periods of Louis XIV
and Louis XVI. which are treasured
here. Some OF these pieces are still
in the old cream and gold paint that
their lonS-ago builders put on them
so carefully. Old brocades, softened
by the sun that pours in from the
windows, are quite as mellow and add
to the grace of the chairs. How well
the French know the art of covering
their furniture in materials suited in
color and design,
At one end Of the room the simplest
of tiny black marble mantelpieces
holds old bronze Sconces and a bit of
lovely old Sevres from the factory

efrom Paris, the steamer stops at the
kouiet little town of Meudon, which
climbs the hills in a sleepy, suburban
-way. with tiny villas inclosed in small
gardens of lockwood and ivy, Up a
pleasant path we go, and then down
z long avenue bordered with lime
trees, arching overhead, to the old
brick house that was home to Rodln
and is a shrine to those who love the
best in art.
Features of House.
We spend an afternoon in the house,
in the studio workshop, where we see
the ORIGINALS of many figures long
beautifully laid out by Rodin and
made lovely by rare objects of sculp-
tured art. Later we so down on the
brow of the hill to the simple slab
that marks his grave before the
classic COLUMNS of an old ruin that he
placed there during his lifetime.
Everywhere is beauty and the spirit
of the great artist who created it.
All of it is intensely interesting.
But we are concerned with the deco
ration of houses, and we look with
especial eagerness into the simple
old house to discover how this great
artist planned the rooms where he
rested after his arduous and self
sacrificing work in the huge, bleak
studio nearby.
A great room. part living room and
part bedroom, with a massive four
posted early Italian carved bed draped
in rich old brocades is to the right of
the entrance Here are also old chests
and heavy oak tables. black with age,
and cabinets holding a wealth OF
beauty in treasures, carefully placed
and preserved for study. An interest
ing room, this, where Rodin must
have spent hours in study.
Across the hall. with great windows

graceful arches. Old books In soft
old leather bindings give lovely con-
trast here to the deep yellow OF the
walls and woodwork.
At the windows hang long, heavy
curtains OF yellow brocade, the same
shade as the walls, but lustrous in
silk. There are no glass curtains here.
and through this lovely yellow frame
one has an unimpeded view into the
garden beyond. so rich in the deep
green Of its lockwood and yew.
Other Features.
On the floor a lovely Oubusson car
pet with designs in green and pastel
shades and with a deep copper-colored
border gives further interest and de.
lightful contrast. Two chairs in nee
dlepoint with designs in shades OF leaf
green's add contrast and seem to be-
long to the garden beyond.
A few old prints in old gilt frames
are hung on the wall with great care.
Sconces of crystal and old gold give
interest and design to the walls.
