MARCH GARDENING

| planted phlox and watched them
bloom;
| spaded a pansy bed;
My iris hedge was poets dream
Rejecting the dappled blue over
head
Soft winds lifted the delicate lace
Of Madeira blossoms which formed
an arch
Over the gate that opened the way
To the garden raised in March
| sat at ease BY the open fire
With a catalogue on my knee
And my only trouble was finding out
Which of the blossoms should
bloom for me.
| painted it all in the rocking chair,
Ere the green was back on the
larch;
1t grew as only garden will
That is raised in the. month of
March.
Then summer came and fought with
weeds:
Worms and insects took their toll;
The thievish sun stole every drop
Of the misery rain clouds dole,
And | view three spindly pansy plants
The hot winds have failed to parch
In place of the matchless splendors
Of the garden | raised in March.

Is YearsAgo In Libby

Taken from the file of the Western
News Of April s. 1867
L. B. Newman, manager for the
Cherry Greek Placer Mining company,
returned from Seattle and went out
to the company's property where a
sawnlill had sawed out quantity Of
lumber during the winter. Newman
said they would have sluicing in oper-
alton by June l. A mile and half Of
flume would be built, 1900 feet of line
laid and two giants would be operated.
Prof and Mrs c. w. Hutton left on
Tuesday for few days visit to their
ranch at Troy.
Capt A. j. McCorkle left on Friday
for business trip to Seattle and
other sound cities.
B. M. Thomas, the Rainy creek min
ing man. was down from the Rainy
creek mines on Saturday.
Bert McCrory left on Tuesday for
Hood River, Or, to see brother who
is not expected to live.
John w. Leigh, who has been doing
his annual assessment work on Leigh
creek, was in Libby this week on busi-
ness and has again returned to the
mine
Mrs. A. D. Barr has returned to Lib
by accompanied by her little son. They
have gone to the Barr homestead on
Granite creek and will probably re-
main there for some time
Harry Hamilton, who has been work
ing on the big new sawmill at Fernie,
returned to Libby on Saturday to pre-
pare for the spring work on his ranch
on the north side of the river.
Mr.. and Mrs. E. H. Wilkins have
arrived in Libby and will make their
future home here. They have bought
the Paul D. Pratt ranch south of town
and moved to that place yesterday.
There are three nominations for
school trustee to be voted for next

B. Jefferson and w. S. Mcguire. Mr.

laid out in the state. On January l
1881, Att miles had been improved
and there remained 2,l67 miles to be
improved
II will cost approximately S25,000,00l
to finish the system as now planned
The issuance of S6,000,000 of gasoline
tax warrants to match the additional
federal funds, plus the regular federal
and state money. which will be available
will provide approximately S23, 10000
for construction during the next -four
years; almost enough to complete the
present system
While Montana people appreciate
good roads for their own use, the tour
list business deserves consideration. n
1929, a quarter of million cars from
other states visited Montana On con-
sentative estimates this brought al
least S12,0O0,000 to the state and the
gasoline purchased by tourists added
more than 100000 to the states road
fund, through the gasoline tax. With
the completion of its main trunk lines
it is conservative to estimate that the
tourist business will be at least doubled
and perhaps trebled
The money contributed by tourists
to Montana road fund is an item of par
ticular significance in considering Ref
erendum Measure No. IS, for the tax
revenue from tourists will more than
pay for the warrants to be issued.
OF importance too. at this time, is
that the passage Of Referendum No. IS
and the additional construction work
it will bring, will put approximately
three thousand men to work.
Worthy of careful consideration also,
is the fact that there is increasing eff
fort, originating largely in states which
have their federal highway systems
well on to completion, to abolish fed
eral aid. The thickly populated in
dustrial states have pushed their road
programs forward quickly. They also
pay the greater part of the taxes which
60 into the federal highway fund. With
their own systems completed, naturally
they do not care to go on paying taxes
to build roads in other states Thus.
there is no telling how long the federal
government will continue to match dol
lars with the states at the 56-44 ratio.
Montana people then, must decide
whether they will build their main
highways now with the federal govern
ment supplying Sc cents of every dol
lar or of delaying the work and pos
sibly paying the entire cost later on.
The popular support which Referen-
DUN No. IS is receiving, is due pri-
marily to the following factors. 1t will
bring s6,000,000 of federal money to
Montana for highway purposes; it will
enable Montana to practically complete
its federal-state highways system Of
nearly five thousand miles within four
years. which otherwise will take ten
years. it will put approximately three
thousand men to work; the cost is
applied entirely to the states five
cent gasoline tax, which will remain
in operation anyway until 194l, it in
wolves no change whatever in either
the gasoline tax law or the refund law;
it will stimulate tourist travel and
tourists will pay more than enough in
gasoline taxes to take care of the pay
ment of the warrants.

Wind and Thermometers

The weather bureau says that the
thermometer Is not Affected by the
wind velocity after having once at
\ tanned the temperature OF the wind.
The physical discomfort usually asso-
ciated with high winds Is due to the
rapid removal Of heat from the human
body on account Of the winds. AS no
heat IL generated by thermometer,
Its readings are therefore not affected
by the wind velocity.
