The right plan would bc an all
American waterwa, from the la,;cs
through New York State, and that
will come. But it would cost five
or six hundred millions more than
the low cost Of the St. Lawrence
canal, which probably will come
first.
Farmers are deeply interested il
these canal projects, for which
Secretary Hoover deserves greac-
est praise. He is worker. The
canals viii cut an average of
twelve cents from the freight on
export wheat and adj twelve
cents to the farmers price.
Harvesting the Colorado River
seems not far away, thanks to a
number Of earnest men, including
Senator Hiram Johnson, Secre-
taries Work and Hoover, and
others. The remaining difficulty
seems to be arranging an agree
mene between California and Ari-
xona. The dam would be in
Arizona, q great part of the power
and irrigation would he used in
California. The prosperity Of one
State l. reflected in all States.
California cannos thrive without
benehtting Florida and Maine.
Arizona, the great State of cop
per, cotton, citrus climate and
the Colorado, will prove itself the
State of brotherly Cancellation.
The thing designed is to use
the country's wealth, water and
power especially, and thus build up
the entire nation. Arizona will
not unwisely withhold from devel-
opment and use that which, at the
moment, she herself cannot use.
This is written on the writer's
eleventh trip across the continent
in fourteen months. The ofteuer
you cross, the more uniformity of
life and manners in America
amazes you.
The young man in semi-balloon
trousers, left In New York, you find
again In Chicago, Kansas City,
Topeka, Gallup, Albuquerque, Bar
stow and tens of thousands of him
in Los Angeles.
Travel short distance from the
shores of Brittany to the noun
tains of Auvergne, in France, and
you find language and clothes
changed completely, also inter-
cSts, habits and manners. 4
Here, from Miami to Portland,
we all know the same baseball and
football scores, see the same NOV
ing pictures, wear the same
Clothes 81 about the same
wages.

Revised Government reports on
crops put corn for this year at two
billion six hundred and forty-five
million bushels, wheat at eight
hundred and thirty-two million
three hundred and five thousand
buShels-and forty million bushels
of rye, forty-one million bushels of
rice, eighteen million six hundred
and eighteen thousand bales of
cotton, thirty-three million nine
hundred thousand boxes of oranges,
etc, and you have slight idea of
y It prosperity means.

GOOD NEWS.
CANALS, CROPS, PROSPERITY.
WE ARE HOMOGENEOUS.
ALL ALIKE.

It's really a prosperous country
we live in, and the prosperity has
only commenced. Arthur Rey-
holds, able Chicago banker, says
our prosperity will last through
1927. 1t will also last through
1927 and beyond, if we give it
chance, really, work and do not
cheat each other too much.

and unlike oil, those crops are
not exhausted, but go on forever,
Increasing. Land in France
planted to wheat for centuries pro-
C@c-s more bushels per acre now
tn it dill 200 years ago. The
PITY is that when farmers have big
t-,p5 they get small prices. Com
l,aaiIa sales and voting could
! ,l2 that, but farmers do not yet
llow how.

The Belgrade Bull at Butte

The bucking bull of Belgrade gave
an exhibition to a large crowd at
Butte last Sunday. The Butte Miner
said Of the event:
"Jim BEDFORD, who had made a bet
of $3.50 that he could ride the bull,
managed to stay on his back for five
or six jumps, when he went sailing
skyward and turned two complete
sOmersaults before he got back to
the ground. He then tried it again
in the hope of winning the standing
offer of $3.50 to anyone who will ride
the animal, but was thrown as
quickly as before. A fellow known
as Mormon Ben then tried it, but
went off at the second jump. The
bull is a worse bucker than any
broncho that ever lived, although he
is as quiet as a kitten when no one is
on his back"
When other communities get tired
Bozeman can furnish the man who
can ride the animal. The bull has
never been mastered under the saddle
but by one man and he was a rider
from BOzeman. There is no question
but the bull is a bucker and who.
ever rides him earns all he gets.

to treat the ores. The quartz in this

of this character which has made a

add materially to the cold and silver
produced in our sister county.

Whence Comes Term "Bit"

The visitor at the west coast of
Canada is likely to be puzzled by a
merchant asking two, four or six
''blts' for an article. Its history is
connected in the old Chinook or
trading language but the origin of
the term "bit" goes back even far
5her than that. 4 'fpenny bit"
(fve-penny biD was really the 1914
cent unit derived from the old
Spanish real or One-eighth of Il dol
lar, long used for computation and
pricing in New Orleans, California
and most seacoast towns. The Unit
cd States never had 12l2 cent
coin Of its own, but to this day a
quarter or 25-cent piece is common
~ spoken of rs two bits" The
name ''tipenny bit" or fiye-penny bit
obviously was derived from n ref
erence to the British and American
colonial penny, which was worth a
traction more than two cents OF
Canadi9n money.

Development of Plants

A wonderful machine has been in
vented which measures the growth
Of plants \ small thread,connects
the plant with the apparatus, which
consists Of an electrical battery and
Il drum which reyolVes slowly.
Above this drum is Il pen worked
by electricity. AS the plant grows
the thread slackens, and causes a
connection between the battery and
pen. The latter drops onto the
drum and makes mark. At the
same time small rod is pushed up,
which tightens the string again.
Thus the drum shows the growth of
the plant over given period, and
information is obtained showing the
effect of heat and light upon vari-
Gus specimens.
1t has been proved that most
plants grow more rapidly at night,
and this fact has been of great as
sistance 10 those engaged in forcing
the growth of flowers and yege-
tables.
