 full International Mixup

Ovid V. Philibert, of 586 South Main street, returned to Waterbury Saturday and filed his application for first citizenship papers. If he had remained in Canada until today, July l, however he would have been sub- ject to service in the Canadian forces.
 Philibert has had 8 lot of trouble since early this year when he was arrested on a charge of illegal entry into the United States. The youth was recommended for deportation by Hartford immigration authorities, but won an appeal in Washington, D. c.
 According to Attorney William B. Hennessy, who represented Philibert, Washington immigration nuthori- ties recommended that he return to Canada and then enter the United States legally. Philibert did as he was told, but returned just in time, since beginning today the Canadian government will enforce military service.
 The whole affair started when Philibert, 8 resident of Waterbury, overstayed a college term in Canada When he returned to the U. S., he was charged with entering illegally.

Uncle Rays Corner-Portugo Wanted Water Route to India

When Great Britain saw strong
signs last month that Italy was
going into the war, an important
order was given to British sea cap
tains. They were told to take their
ships around southern Africa in
stead of through the Mediterranean
Sea.
The Mediterranean route from
England to India is shorter, but it
seemed safer to the British to 20
around Africa.
People in Europe did not have
an all-water route to India 500
years ago. To trade with that coun-
try, they had to use caravans. There
was no Suez Canal at that time.
Quite often the caravans were
halted by desert robbers. Costly
loads Of silk and spices were lost
by traders.
Columbus tried to find an all
water route to India, but he found
the New World. The New World
was to prove richer than the whole
of Asia, but no one knew it at the
time.
Among the famous sea captains
Of history is Vasco da Cana. He
was born at about the same time
as Columbus, and did his greatest
work a few years after Columbus
sailed westward across the Atlantic.

which no one had done before. If
there was success, a new day of
rich trading for Portugal would be
won.
Before the sailors and officers of
the little fleet went on board, they
gave their confessions to priests.
They feared that this voyage might
be the last they ever would make.
Ships Of Europe before this had
gone as far as the Cape of Good
Hope, but none had rounded the
cape and crossed the Indian Ocean.
After a short visit in the Cape
Verde Islands, the pilots were or
dered to steer almost straight south
ward. This was a change from the
custom of "hugging the coast" of
Africa.
Tho men with Vasco da Cana
must have been almost, If not quite,
as much afraid as those who had
gone with Columbus in 1892.

"A Range. Form
Programs United

Farmers and ranchers in
Montana will participate in the
Agricultural Adjustment admin
istration under the provisions of
one overall program in 1910,
George Miller, chairman of the
Big Horn county agricultural
conservation committee, an
nounced recently. Range and
farm conservation phases of the
administration have been COM
bined for 1910.
Under the new program,
range land will be classed as
non-crop pasture land and
range practices will be listed as
soil-building practices. This
means that cooperators previ-
ously complying with provis-
ions of either the farm or
range program will be able to
utilize the practices of the 9TH
er in earning their allowance.
Commenting on ranchers who
have land but have participated
only in the range program, Mil
Ter said, These ranchers should
work out their 1910 farm plans
with their county committees
to be certain that they do not
over-seed soil-depleting crops
and thus subject their payments
to deductions"
Seventy-five per cent of the
non-crop pasture land allow
ance, which corresponds to the
range allowance under the old
range program, may be earned
by deferring grazing under the
provisions of the 1910 program.
However, the payment for de-
ferred grazing in no case can
exceed the amount spent for
supplemental practices, which
are designated by the county
agricultural conservation COM
mittee, Miller pointed out.
supplemental practices to be
used in Montana will include
the building of fences, wind
breaks, snow fences and stock
trails; water developments; ell
limitation of poisonous plants
and noXiouS weeds; rodent and
insect control; check plots; rip
rapping of cut banks; check
and soil-conserving dams and
silt traps.
Each operator will furnish
the county committee at Har-
din with an itemized statement
of expenses incurred in the per-
Torrance of these supplement
tary practices. The operators
payment for deferred grazing
will be based on the cost of
these supplementary practices,
Miller said.
The closing date established
for signing applications for par
ticipation in the 1910 combined
program is May l., 1910.
