AGRICULTURE JARED
WELL IN LEGISLATURE

While there were no large or mo-
mentous agricultural questions before
the legislature this year, the session
just closed did pass a number of
measures affecting agriculture.
Among the bills passed which are
of interest to farmers, and which now
are laws, are the following: A law
making possible the sale of more
than $1,000 of capital stock to any
one member of a cooperative organ
lzation; permitting cooperative organ
lzatlons to own the major portion of
stock of subsidiary finance CORPORA
lions; an anti-discrimination act COW
erlng all farm products, exclusive of
grain. This latter law ranks in i'm
portance with the passage of the law
making possible the formation of CO.
operative associations.
AS result. of an investigation by
the legislative committee of the
House, reduction was made by the
Board of Control in the price of prison
made farm machinery. In addition
new law provides that the prison
can now manufacture hayloaders in
addition to the line of farm machinery
formerly manufactured at that insti-
tuition.
A new law also makes it illegal to
have an overrun of more than "a per
cent in creameries. This new law
compels all creameries, cheese factor
les and cream stations to have Ii
cense. This will enable the Dairy
and Food Department to close up all
places which are not properly kept
and sanitary.
Another new law provides for the
keeping of sales records for poultry
and poultry products.
The new grain storage act provides
for change in the manner of storage
charges and records thereof.
The grading and inspection of al
falfa and clover seed will hereafter
offer protection to the buyer of these
seeds. The passage of the forestry
bills, carrying out the intent of the
forestry amendment approved at the
last general election, is of interest to
farmers and means the recognition of
wood and timber products as crop
in Minnesota. A constitutional
amendment, limiting the liability of
stockholders in cooperative organiza-
lions, will be voted on at the next
general election. An agricultural
equality commission, consisting of
the Governor, Commissioner of Agri-
culture and three other members, was
created by law. This commission
will carry on the work for equality
for agriculture.
In the matter of appropriations, ag-
ricultural interests are fairly we'll
taken care Of The livestock breed
ers' appropriation was increased; the
Minnesota Crop Improvement associa-
ton will have funds for the coming
two years; the appropriation for coun-
ty agent work was increased slightly;
the extension division was given an
increase for club work The esti-
mated requirements for the coming
biennium for T. B. eradication by the
Livestock Sanitary Board were also
amply provided for.

like our forefathers did. Let's home
stead that land! Let's earn 1t by
farming It."
Lydia's father looked at her, long
and meditatively. He was pretty well
discouraged about the probability of
ever getting a clear title to the land
through Kent or Marshall. And the
longer he looked at Lydia the more
his mind reverted to New England, to
old tales Of the farm on which he and
his ancestors had been bred.
"a man with three hundred and
twenty acres Of land is power in the
community" he said, suddenly.
Lydia nodded. Amos began to walk
the floor. "I'm still young man. If
I had the backing that land lives a
man, I could clean out lot of rotten
ness in the state Even If only did
1t by showing what man with clean
record could make of himself"
'That's just the point" cried Lydia
eagerly, land your record wouldn't
have been clean If you'd gotten 1t
through Marshall"
eff take Browns offer for the cot
tage it would leave us enough to get

tor to get to the cleared portion Of 1t

you know. I might as well quit the
factory now, eh, Lydia?'
With a laugh that had sob In 1t
Lydia kissed her father and whirled
out the door. Billy was coming In at
the gate. She flew down to seize his
hand and turn him toward the road.
Lets walk! I've such quantities
to tell you"
Billy turned obediently, but paused
in the shadow of the pine. Lydia, l
can't tell you what it means to me-
No matter what bigger things may
seem to happen to me, nothing can
equal the things I've felt and dreamed
today" ..
Then he put his arms about Lydia
and kissed her, and she put her arms
about his neck and laid her head
against his shoulder. They stood thus
motionless while the pine whispered
above them. And in the intensity of
that embrace all the griefs Of Lydia's
life were hallowed and made purpose
full.
Lydia" said Billy, II want to tell
mother and dad. Will you come over
home with me now?"
EYES," replied Lydia, "and then we
must tell my father and Lizzie. Oh,
Billy, forgot" as they started down
the road, 'I've decided to homestead
that land"
"But-why, Lydia, dear, you're 60
ing to be lawyers wife. For heav-
ems sake, let that beastly land CO."
"No, I'm going to be pioneers
wife!"
There was little pause, then Billy
laughed uncertainty. swell, I'm not
going to talk about it tonight. I'm In
a frame Of mind tonight where I'd
promise you to be an Indian chief If
you ask it. Mother and dad are in
the kitchen"

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

-Four Local Churches Sponsor Lee
ture at Auditorium by Bick-
nell Young, c. S. 8.

"Christian Science: It's Redemptive
Mission" was discussed in the Wash
ington Auditorium yesterday after
noon by Bicbneu Young, G :. e. Of
Chicago, ILL.,, a member of the Board
of Lectureship of The Mother Church.
The First Church of Christ Scientist,
in Boston. Mass. He was introduced
by Charles :. Baum, first reader of
Fourth Church of this city. The
lecture was under the auspices of the
four Christian Science Churches here.
The lecturer said in part:
Our purpose is wholly benevolent,
our science strictly Christian The
object we have in view is to extend
it's Unreasonable benefits to all man.
kind, and we solicit your interest
only that YOU may understand IL ana
put it to the test in your daily lives.
Without study and investigation,
without careful observation and com
parison, the chemist or physicist can
make no scientific advancement. We
are accustomed to this fact and en-
tirely reconCiled TO il. Prior to the
discovery of Christian Science. how
ever. the world at large, even the
exceptionally intellectual part of it,
was not aware that exactly the same
rule applies TO spiritual advancement.
Mrs. Eddy $ discovery that the
works OF Jesus were scientific and
sequential, instead of being. as is
generally supposed mysterious and
sporadic, came about in exactly the
same way that other great discoveries
are made, that is to say, through
observation of ascertained or ascer-
tainable facts. and the method of dis
coVery entailed the same answering
allegiance to facts that has char
acterized great scientific investigators
from time immemorial
Mrs. Eddy's personal experience
had convinced her of the fuMlity of
material methods. She read the Bible
in a new light and perceived the deep
scientific significance of its teachings.
Thus she discovered the Science of
Christ. Christian Science. She tested
it by healing the sick and reforming
the sinner"

which later became Montana, leaving
Colorado undistrKbed by their influence"
Those who came here represented all
classes except the large planters, whose
number was never great at any time. A
better knowledge of history enlightened
me regarding the effect Of this element
upon education in Montana.
Before the Civil war, there was no such
system Of education in the South as in
the North. The wealthy planters en-
ployed tutors and governesses for their
children, and there was very little at
tempt made to instruct the ~commonalty,
to which belonged What was known as
poor whites Many of this latter class
came here and, being ~uneducated them
selves, did not appreciate the value Of
name "Missourian" to be discredited.
Their ignorance and racial prejudice
made them loyal to the South in What
Professor Beais calls our second revolu-
ton. and there was no modification of
their sentiments effected by a change Of
residence.
No very wealthy southern men are on
the roll Of Ii pioneers. but there were
a number OF the small shareholders, and
professional men. In q few instances
the former brought with them n or
more OF their slaves, and from the nrst
there were more negroes In Montana than
were usually found in northern commun-
tiles. As late as 1875 or 1877. this led
to q separate school being established for
negro children in Helena. Everything
went swimmtngly until tax-paying time
arrived, when the decision was reached
that negroes In the public schools were
preferable to depleted pocket books, and
the little log school building, which had
housed the children Of the colored race
was permanently abandoned.
The same prejudice attached to the
Indians and the mixed bloods. In one
case at least, these were forbidden by
religious denomination to attend its
Sunday school. This feeling had to be
outgrown to a certain extent, and this
takes time. 1t fell to the lot Of one Of
our college presidents not many years
ago, who was a southern man, to bestow
a prize on a negro athlete, which was
done very gracefully.
When my father visited Judge Burch-
ett's mining court the day we reached
Bannack, 1t was Mr.. Chrisman's black
man George" who was frequently dis
pedite Justice. Mr.. Chrisman, 1t will be
stakeholder, yet no matter how literally
he had imbibed, he never rode through
the streets at night, h~urrahing for the
president OF the Confederacy, and shoot
ing at the flag above our house as did
others. On the contrary, when menace
by danger, he came to my father for aid.
One of the occasions was his having
heard the v~igilantes were after him. On
Washington's birthday Of 1884, when men
were being gathered in to treat tnnum-
cradle thirsty citizens, this same man
saw fit to spend the afternoon at our
house, although there were only women

The Sioux War for the Black Hills

fighting Sioux nation and it's allies
against the ~encroaching white race,

the most sanginary engagement OF which
was the Battle OF the Little Big Horn.
In what is now Custer county, Montana.
To the Sioux the Black Hills country

purpose Of the confederated Indians be-
Ing to block the white men forever in
their steady march into the west.
Near the seat Of where all this trouble
began is now the summer home OF the
president OF the United States. Presi-
lent Coolidge undoubtedly knows the
legends OF the Green mountains Of his
native New England by heart, and recalls
the exploits Of such men as Ethan Allen
with pride. But Vermont's traditions are
all very much In the past and 1T is per-

president now has his home, and due
west of there is the little town of Gus
ter, where the first settlement In the
Black Hills was made when the gold fever
started in 1874. Then, there were $4,000
living in Custer at one time, today the
population is about 200.
They say of Custer that 1t was laid
out with typical surveying instruments
OF h day, namely, a sun compass, q
lariat and a bottle of whisky. General
Custer wa indirectly responsible for 1t,
because it had been one Of his soldiers
who had discovered gold there q few
months before. The lane was then sacred
to the Sioux, and Custer was in the Black
Hills on an expedition OF peaceful ex-
ploration, but the finding OF gold o
