Says:

EUer Since the War We Hare
Tried to CrdlCI Into a Hole
and Haul the Hole in After
Us.
NEW YORK, May 2s.-Lack of
~ leadership in this country is
due to lack Of purpose. AS a ma
ton, We have no program, no spe-
cific object in view, no great work
on which TO concentrate.
Ever since the war we have tried
to crawl into hole and haul the
hole in after us.
We have talked about splendid
isolation as bulwark OF peace
and Of the tariff as a guarantee Of
prosperity.
Instead Of employing our surplus
wealth for development, we have
bought poor securities.
We have refused to join the
League Of Nations, though we tout
ed it as the only achievement which
could justify the war.
We even have WEIGHED on COM
prehensive plan for controlling the
Mississippi river system.

Must Have Vision

WHETHER as individuals, COM
w munities, or nations. people
can not grow without vision. 1t is
their destiny not only to build
castles in the air, but to attempt
the translation of these dreams into
actuality. Let them drop the habit,
and they risk mental atrophy.
When you stop to think Of the re-
sources and instrumentalities at our
command, We have undertaken little
that was big, or inspiring, since the
boys came home from Europe.
We have doomed stocks, but only
to find that it was a house of cards,
have merged and consolidated our
great business concerns, but only to
discover that it didn't bring the
millennium.
We have added more miles to our
hard-surfaced highways, installed
more telephones, perfected the
broadcasting system and operated
an ever-increasing number of autos.
But what have we done that was
original, or impressive?
q
We're Getting Soft
NTE can not go on as we are,
w without deteriorating. AS
nation, we must have things to
work for, things that never were
done before, things that fit our
strength.
1t is utterly ridiculous to suppose
that the greatest organization on
earth can sit down and play safe.
This idea that we have reached a
point where it soon will be possible
TO play half the time and cut cou-
pons, is not only absurd, but perni-
cious.
We are getting too soft, as it is
too soft and scared.
Neither is it necessary to think of
conquest, or Imperialism, as the only
outlets for our surplus energy.

But that delay Of the tax bill, and consequent delay

A conservative estimate IS that

thirty offspring and 432 descendants,

to more than 20.000.000. The num-
Der from mice would be somewhat
smaller.

Editor Times-I see in the Star
an article asking every one to spend
81 for something he needs, to boost
business. With a thinking person
this has no merit, as the industries
Of the entire nation are controlled
with improved machinery and
skilled men, until they can supply
the needs Of the country with the
forces now in operation.
My idea is, If you can spare the
dollar, spend the dollar with a gro
Ger, and tell him that you are going
to buy some groceries for some
worthy mother who is trying to
keep her children from want. Per-
haps the grocer will help by elimi :
mating his profit.
I believe a plan to boost agricul-
ture is the only way to success. A
friendly receivership, proceeding to
place the land under government
control. to finance and stock it,, to
a paying basis. with qualified farm
ers, operated by the unemployed,
and the produce to be used by the
unemployed. The farms are almost
depleted Of stock and we soon will
face a shortage.
We would like for the legislators
to try to help us while they are
helping themselves.

of the Herald contract, that the
Wave was named as the official
newspaper for Sheridan county for
the ensuing two years, it being
understood between the two papers
that the Wave should have all
the legal publications, the printing
of the registration lists and a few
other items and that the other
work and printing be done by the
Producers News.
This arrangement comes as near
to satisfying all concerned as it
is possible to do, the Producers
News receives the long end of the
contract as far as the printing of
supplies is concerned and the
Wave receives the prestige which
goes with being the county official
paper.
The Board, we believe, disposed
of the matter in the fairest manner
possible, they gave Mr.. Polk every
opportunity to defend his position
and they divided the work between
the two opposition papers.
The price schedule under which
the new contract is made is the
same as has prevailed under the
former Herald contract. This, &C
cording to statements make by Mr..
Polk, is the best and lowest con-
tract that the county has had for
printing for years. One advantage
which comes from placing the CO.
tract with the Wave and the Pro
ducers News is that each paper
has the equipment and facilities to
handle all work necessary, it will
be done in Plentywood and Medi-
cine Lake and will give employ
ment to Sheridan county printers,
it will bring back from North Da-
kota the Sheridan county printing.
We understand that Mr.. Polk
will institute some legal action to
retain his contract, what success
he will have in the endeavor will be
for the court to decide. From all
the legal opinion we have been able
to secure the board acted legally
in c~ancelling the Herald contract,
they followed the law in providing
the county with an official paper
and awarding the contract, there
the matter stands.

SHELTER BELTS ATTAIN
GOOD Size SINCE 1918

The shelterbelt on the John H
Davis farm, west of Medicine Lake
in the northern part of Roosevelt
county is a fine example of the per.
manency of trees in northeastern
Montana when properly planted and
cared for. This grove was estab-
lished as a demonstration plot by
the Northern Great Plains field
station at Mandan in 1918 and is
still in good condition with most Of
the original trees now IS to 25 feet
in height. 1t is the oldest Mandan
shelterbelt in Roosevelt county.
The original grove contained
green ash, American elm, Golden
willow and box elder. The only
variety that has entirely disap-
peared is the willow. Other var
ieties have appeared to be equally
hardy and survive in practically
equal numbers.
Unlike the later paintings furn-
ished by the station at Mandan,
the Davis grove is planted with the
trees four feet apart in rows and
with rows eight feet apart. Mr..
Davis states that he believes wider
planting would be better from a
rapid growth standpoint and would
allow cultivation for a longer per-
iod. With the closer spacing rec
commended for this grove he finds
that cultivation is impossible after
three or four years.
1t is interesting to note the
change in recommendations since
the Davis planting was made in
1918. At that time close planting
recommended as forest condi-
tions of shade and protection were
desired. Wide spacing to allow for
cultivation for a longer time and
more space per tree is now advised.
Many varieties such as the willow,
cottonwood and the poplars were
included in the earlier paintings
now only the proven varieties
such as the ash, elm, box elder,
carragana. Russian Olive make up
the bulk of the trees furnished.
