SHELTERBELTS SHOULD
HAVE WIDER SPACING

Wider spacing in shelterbelts is
one of the recommendations of the
Experiment station at Moccasin,
Montana, after several years of
experimenting with shelterbelt
management. Wide spaces be-
tween rows and setting Tree fur
Their apart in the row has been
found to increase tree growth and
increase the length of life of the
tree. One of the important adj
vantages of wider spacing is the
increased ease of cultivation with
tillage machines now in common
use on Montana farms.
Recommendations of h%orticultur-
lists IS years ago caused many
sh~elterbelts to be planted with
rows 8 feet apart and placed trees
4 to 6 feet apart in the row. Elk
p%erience in this and other parts
of Montana has proven this spac-
ing to be satisfactory. Trees have
died for want of sufficient mois-
ture an operators have found
that it is practically impossible to
cultivate between trees when set
this distance.

Methuselah ate what he found

And never, as people do now.
Did he note the amount of the
caloric count,
He ate it because it was chow
He wasn't disturbed as at dinner
he sat
Destroying a roast or a pie
To think it was lacking in lime
or in fat
Or a couple of yitamins shy.
He cheerfully chewed every
species of food
Untroubled by worries or fears
Lest his health might be hurt by
some fancy dessert -
And he lived over nine hundred
years.

Au5tin, Texas.-How a country
newspaper editor convinced a
doubtful merchant of the value of
advertising by the aid of grass
hoppers was related in the house
recently by Representative Raw
Holder, publisher of the Lancaster
Herald and a principal in the un-
usual craftsmanship tactics.
There was a man in my town
who said that advertising did not

ing a proposed bill which would
require printing of almost all legal
notices in a newspaper of general
circulation. Il made a bet with him
that | would insert a one-inch adj
vertisement in the inconspicuous
corner of my paper, offering a
prize to any boy or girl who
brought in the most grasshoppers
on a certain day. He agreed that
if there was a good response he
would be sure people were reading
the paper and would become an
Advertising customer.
"The ad was inserted and a-cer-k

daylight boys and girls by the
core swarmed around the office.

Sybil, a Boston society airl who
has had plenty of affairs of her
own, d~istrusts Valerie from the
beginning, and is fearful for
Tad's happiness.
A few days before the wedding
Tad finds Valerie with a mon
ocuIed Englishman, buying a
ring. She introduces him as
LORD MONTFORD and tells
Tad that the beautiful dinner
ring she exhibits proudly is a
wedding gift from his lordship.
Furiously Tad orders his fiancee
to return the ring. Lord Mont
ford i%ntervenes, and Val begins
to argue.

She took Tad's arm

Valerie a carrying a delicate
situation with verve. Tad thought
he had never seen her so adorable
before. She extended her slim
hand.
'Goodby, then, old dear. We'd
love to have you come to the we'd
ding, wouldn't we, Tad? And the
reception, too. It's only for our
very best friends-but we'd adore
having you. Wouldn't we, Tad?"

They were shaking hands, Lord
Montford and Valerie.

me up when you run over to Lon

and tugged a little at Valerie's
lrm.
Outside she turned on him. {

husband.
Their attendants followed them.

her color. She looked hot and I'M

ordeal of the reception. There

it simplifed matters to have

Dear Mr.. Taylor:
There has been so much assertion
and denial of the existence of monop-
oily in electricity that l thought you
might be interested in a pamphlet of
mine on the subject just issued. Ac-
cordingly, am taking the liberty of
sending you a copy under separate
cover.
This pamphlet (The Power Monop-
oily, It's Makeup and It's Menace)
charges that this monopoly exists,
and goes on TO prove it. 1t shows of
what the power monopoly consists,
how it was built up, and for what
purpose. Also it contains an alpha
betical list of power companies, which
will enable each reader to trace the
connection of the company whose
rates he pays.
For your convenience, in case you
may desire to use it, / enclose short
summary.
Sincerely yours,
