LEAVTTT GIVES
WATERWAY PLAN
AT COUNTY FAIR

Addressing friendly audience of
1850 eastern Montana farmers and
their families, Congressman Scott
Leavitt in speaking at Sidney at the
Richlahd county fair outlined the
value to Montana of the proposed
Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway,
and termed Herbert Hoover its fore
most advocate.
From here Mr.. Leavitt went to
Chicago for conference with fellow
members Of the republican national
congressional committee, of which he
I is member. Mr.. Leavitt, who was
renominated without opposition at the
republican primaries in July, was re-
quested by Congressman Will R. Wood
of Indiana, chairman of the commit
tee, to go east for consultation.
Referring to the st. Lawrence
waterway, Mr.. Leavitt pointed out
that its construction will allow load
ing Of Montana products for export
on ocean going vessels at Duluth in
stead of New York, thus bringing sea
worthy ships 1,100 miles nearer wheat
fields of the treasure state and as
consequence reduce the freight rate
on every bushel they produce by from
to cents a bushel, In contrast he
showed that Hoover's rival for the
presidency has, in his official capacity
of governor of New York, long been
at the forefront of the opposition
which is seated at the port Of New
York.
Turning to the tariff, the second
district representative stated that no
duty can be effective to the full extent
Of the rate when the United States
has surplus of the commodity for
export, He quoted import figures to
show that Canada sends much less
wheat to-the United States under the
protective tariff act Of 1922 than she
did in previous years, when there was
no duty on wheat. This was cited to
show that even though the United
States has an eXportable surplus of
wheat, the tariff operates to preserve
the domestic markets to American
producers. There is always a greater
American demand than supply of
wheat with a high protein quantity,
with the result that Montana grow
ers of this type receive effective tar
iff protection upon the product Of
their labir.
Mr. Leavitt will return from Chica-
go in time to address republican
rally at Baker the evening of Sept.
90 From there he will proceed to
Hardin to greet Senator Charles
Curtis, upon the arrival of the vice
pro 4 Dental candidate for an after
noon address at the Big Horn county
seat. The party will go from there
to Billings, where the Kansas senator
will be the headliner at meeting that
evening

CATTLE RUSTLERS
ARE RESIDENTS OF
BIG HORN COUNTY
Investigations Disclo S e
Rustlers Active in Sage
Greek Country.

Cattle rustling activities, ieminls-
cent Of earlier days developed into
that which promises to be rather a
sensational case, when on Monday,
Sheriff John A. Albert arrested B.
NJ. Phelps Of the Lone Wolf ranch and
William Shirren, who is in the en-
ploy of lnelps. Phelps and Shirren
were charged with stealing rs head
of cattle belonging to E. l.. Dana.
Monday afternoon Sheriff Albert re-
ceived telephone call from Deputy
Sheriff Mccall Of Fromberg advising
that he had been notified that there
were suspicious which gave evidence
of cattle rustling in the Sage creek
country. Sheriff Albert lett imme-
diately and was joined at Bridger by
Deputy Sheriff Mccall and they pro-
ceeded to the Sage creek country.
Upon their arrival it was learned that
w. G. Moody and Harvey Ray and
Clarence Cummings, residents of the
Sage creek country, had run across
some strange cattle in their territory,
and upon investigating they discov
cred that two men on horseback,
when approached, made for the brush.
This aroused the suspicious of the
three men, who pursued them into
the brush.
Cummings was sent to the Strong
ranch where he telephoned to Deputy
Sheriff Mccall, giving him the stated
facts. Before the arrival of Sheriff
Albert and Deputy Sheriff Mccall at
Sage creek, Phelps and Shirren came
out of the brush and told Woody and
Ray, who were making effort to hold
them until the officers had arrived,
that they could not hold them without
a warrant. At the time the officers
arrived the suspects had departed.
The officers went in pursuit and ar
rested Phelps and Shirren and brought
them to Red Lodge, where they were
charged with stealing 25 head of cat
tie belonging to E. L. Dana. The
prisoners gave bond in the sum OF
$1,000 EACH The bonds were signed
by Rose and Charles Phelps, mother
and father Of B. M. Phelps.
Upon further Investigations it de-
veloped that there were AZ head OF
cattle in the herd which were being
driven down Crooked creek canyon
Later IA head more were picked up
which evidently had become separated
from the general herd.
Sheriff Albert telephoned to the
sheriff of Big Horn county, who as
sisted him in chasing down the facts
Upon investigation it was found that
Phelps and Shirren both lived in Big
Horn county and that E. L. Dana's
ranch is also located in Big Horn
county. Following the disclosure OF
these facts, Sheriff j. B. Shrive OF
Big Horn county came to Red Lodge
and demanded the prisoners. In dis
cussing the matter Wednesday eve
ming, Sheriff Shrive stated that Phelps
and Shirren would be arrested today
in Big Horn county and that the com
plant filed in Carbon county woulc
be dismissed following the arrest
of the prisoners there.
H. w. Willeuitt, manager OF the
E. L. Dana range, came to Sage Greer
Wednesday and identified the cattle
and it is understood that the cattle
will be driven back to Big Horr
county within few days.

the color and appearance may not be
so attractive, though the flavor and
texture should be fairly good. The
flavor of old rhubarb is apt to be
strong; when it is to be used, the ad-
dition of one or two pieces of lemon
or orange peel to the stems as they
cook is an improvement.
Wash and trim stalks of rhubarb,
being careful not to remove the pink
skin. Cut into half-inch pieces and
place in granite pan. Add one cup
full water for each pound of rhubarb.
Cook until tender, then strain through
four thicknesses of cheesecloth. There
should be about one and one-quarter
cupfuls of juice for each pound of
rhubarb.
Add six tablespoonfuls of lemon
pectin extract and one and one-Quar-
ter cupfuls of sugar for each cupful of
rhubarb juice, and boil. The ordinary
jelly test cannot always be depended
upon in the case of rhubarb, particu-
larry if the stalks are not very young
and tender, because there are certain
gumnly substances present which
cause the hot juice to sheet from the
edge of the spoon, but which do not
assist in making jelly.

economics tells how to make these
sun preserves:
cups small berries (about 1 pound
pounds selected berries
pounds sugar (granulated)
Select large ripe solid fruit, wash
well, and cap. Crush and cook three
cupfuls of the smaller berries for
tire minutes, stirring all the time.
Then strain. This amount of fruit
should yield about one cupful Of
juice. To this juice add the sugar
and heat slowly, until it is entirely
dissolved. Drop the large berries in
to this strip and allow the mixture
to boil for one minute. Remove any
scum, drain the fruit from the strip,
and place it carefully with the berries
about one inch apart, on shallow pans.
Boil the strip to temperature of
105 degrees G, which requires about
ten minutes, or until 1t is fairly thick.
Pour this over the berries in a thin
lowing an air space on all sides.
Place the pans in the sun and turn
the berries over before the next days
summing. Repeat this for three days,
or until the strip has formed a jelly.
This amount yields little over one
pint of fruit. The success of this
method of preparing strawberries de-
ponds upon the heat of the sun as
well as the firm ripe condition of the
fruit used. They should be taken in
to the house before the dew falls. In
case there is rain before the jelly state
is reached, the pans may be placed in
warm oven. This, however, dark
ems the fruit somewhat and is only
done to prevent loss. One tablespoon
full of lemon juice to eacf cupful of
concentrated strip improves the color,
and to some persons the flavor of the
preserves.

ECCENTRIC MISS EMERSON

Mary Moody Emerson, the eccen-
trio aunt of Ralph Waldo Emerson,
made her own shroud in anticipation
of death, but when death failed to
come, she wore the shroud anyway.
First she put it on as nightgown,
then as a dress. She was even seen
on horseback once in Concord cam
tering through the village street at
tired for the grave, with scarlet
shawl thrown about her shoulders.
Miss Emerson was a dwarf, feet
3 inches tall, with bold pinkish
face, blue flash in her eyes and yell
low hair cropped close under mob
cap. She could not sit, she could
not sleep; a demon drove her pen.
For she had survived a witness OF
the lofty and terrible religion Of
John Calvin, to rebuke what she re-
garded as the poor, pale, unpoetical
humanitarianism Of the new day.
She was thought to have the power OF
uttering more disagreeable things
than any other person living-Van
Wyck in Scribner's Magazine.

LinOleum is one of the best and
most serviceable of all coverings for
floors in kitchens, pantries and bath
rooms, and is being more and more
widely used in combination with tex
tile rugs in all the rooms of the house.
It wears well. is easily cleaned, is
impervious TO grease and water spots,

comfortable to walk and stand on.
There are three general types of
linOleum on the market, according TO

The plain, as the name implies, has no
design and gives the floor an unOb-
trusive fat appearance that is restful

MASTOD0N HAS FINE RECORD

The Mastodon strawberry, an ever
bearer, proved so fruitful wherever
grown in Minnesota last year that it
has apparently come to stay. This is
the opinion of F. P. Daniels of the d.
vision of horticulture, University Of
Minnesota, who says that the Masto-
don has wonderful record. 1t is an
abundant producer, propagates read
fly, and is hardy.
Mr.. Daniels also speaks good
word for the Superb which, he says,
is a splendid berry having peculiar
flavor something like the grape.
OF the new June berries, Beaver
is worth observing and studying, he
says. Some growers say it is a COM
ing berry. It is being grown to
some extent at Kenyon and Aitkin In
this state and is large berry which
holds up well and has a good strong
color.
Minnehaha, Bliss, Bouquet, and
Table Queen are new varieties which
have their strong adherents. The
Early Bird, another variety, comes
from Michigan, and is recommended
for its early maturity and good ap-
pearance.
Horticulturists of the university
have originated a new currant, now
known as Minnesota No. "a and not
yet available for general planting.
This is currant having a large
berry and large clusters which ripen
approximately week after the nor
NAL berry and holds on for a long
time thereafter. A good crop of
currants late in the season will bring
good prices, and it is hoped that
Minnesota No. "a is this good late
currant.
The university horticulturists also
have a new red raspberry, designat-
ed only by number yet, which is very
promising. In season it is earlier
than the Latham although not quite
so large and it is expected to be i'm
mune, or almost so, from mosaic, the
running-out disease.

Turn to American Brakes

Freight cars ON French railroads
are to be equipped with American
passenger cars, at an estimated cost of
about $62,700000. 1t is believed that
the railroads will save 100000
francs yearly from reduction in the
number of employees now required to
operate the mandrake systems, and
that total economies will outbalance
an increased cost of operation esti-
mated at 100000 francs.
