Less Than One Per Cent Pro-
duces 1870 of Nations Crops

Helena.-MOntana farmers, aIthO in
numbers they are less than one per
cent of the nations total, produced
this year about 1.6 per cent of the
nations crop value and harvested
about 1.8 per cent of the country's
crop acreage, says the division of pub
licity, department of agriculture, la
Dor and industry.
Acreage planted to crops in 1927
was the largest the state has known
About 100000 acres were sown COM
pared with 6,848,000 in 1924. Every
one of Montana's Sc counties shows g
light increase in the value of farm
output compared with last year.

Things You Should Know
COMMITTING SIJICTDE

Any one who suddenly ends his
life voluntarily, by his own act, IS
a suicide. / believe that one who
ends or shortens his existence SLOWLY
perhaps unconsciously - commits
the same unwholesome deed.
| read somewhere that civilization
has added seven hundred articles of
food to our overworked dietaryl
Think of it, in the face of the fact
that the human body needs actually
only half-dozenl l feel sure that
the seven hundred are only modifca-
tons, mixtures, and authorizations of
the few food-units required. In place
Ct plain bread and butter, fruits and
meats, we are eating distillates, fer
mentations, hashes and conglomera-
tons, sugared pyramids, and highly
dynamized temptations to depraved
appetites, which wreak destruction by
slow but certain stages on the bodies
that are, from hour to hour stuffed
with them, suicide? / know of no
better word to employ.
Our advertising pages, woman's
magazines and newspapers are fam
ing with colored illustrations of sat-
urated, striped, and colored defers
of digestion. New recipes are almost
daily added, that seem irresistible
as if plain, wholesome food were not
inestimably better for sound sleep
and good healthl Our people con-
sumo tons and tons of sugar in
myriad forms each year. CONNER
ciahsm knows that the easiest route
to the pocket-book is by way of the
appetite
There is no argument against that
for long, healthy, comfortable life.
Every octogenarian, even centenari-
an, is a living convincing witness for
plain food, temperate living, and sound
sleep. Every man that dies at fftv-
lve OF heart failure" Cerebral
hemorrhage" and acute indigest;on;'
is terrible indictment of the gas
tronomic debauches of our neonIe
OF today. Life is too precious to Be
frittered away by dissipation
II you want good figure healthy
muscles, sound brain, and elastic stem
cling to the simple diet and stead1
employment.

women's suffrage and when the proposal comes to vote with the reconvention of the upper house early this year many astute politicians are prophesying it will pass.

 If the Senate responds favor ably to the governments recom- mendation French women will re- eeive municipal voting privileges in the 1929 elections along with the right to hold municipal of flee. They will still have ahead of them the fight that American women won with the passage of the Susan B.
