Quentin, Grandson of T,

Data on Tibet.

NEW YORK.-Another Roosevelt
has won his spurs in the exploring
game-with cargo of treasure and
the ability to eat caterpillars to
show for his pains. He is Quentin
Roosevelt, 10 years old, grandson
of President Theodore Roosevelt,
son Of Col. Theodore Roosevelt, SEN
ior in Harvard university, veteran
Of two expeditions to Asia's interior.
Quentin has returned to Harvard
after a trip Of six months during
which he travelled $4,000 miles
through the recesses of China and
Tibet in search Of relics Of the an
cient Nashi tribes.
He found no lost river as did his
Grand-dad Teddy and his Uncle Ker-
init when they explored in Brazil
before Quentin was born. But he
came across about 1000 old manu-
scripts and scrolls which he be-
lieves may be missing links between
the Asiatic civilization Of the pres

Exciting Experiences.
He can't tell of being caught in a

Su.
During his six-months' journey,
Roosevelt said, climate varied from
20 degrees in the high Tibetan pla-
teau to lit degrees in dio-China.
One hundred tough horsemen Of
the Chinese army, armed with mod
ern rifles and boasting a few ma
chine guns, formed his escort as
he pushed on from central China
to the southeast, and the land Of
the Nashis.
Roosevelt said his caravan was
attacked several times by bandits in
the back country. However, he
found most of the natives friendly
and willing to aid him.
1t was to match an ancient fu-
neral scroll found by his father that
Quentin started the journey which
took him through wild and noun
famous country.

In crumbling temples and ancient
chests, he found scrolls-six of
them-together with other centuries
old writings Of a people who still
"chase" devils and have remained
unchanged by fire and famine"
The scrolls, 40 feet long and eight
inches wide, contain what the Nashi
believe are markings on the road to
heaven and to hell.
They list all the virtues a man can
have, and all the sins he can COM
init, and when native dies, priest
reads his particular story-good or
bad-over his funeral bier.
For less than $500 in American
money-"with kitchen stove or a
rain helmet included here and
there"-Roosevelt obtained all the
treasure he wanted.
Before heading back to America
to translate the Nashi scrolls and
manuscripts, Roosevelt pushed on to
Tibet, picking up beautiful banners
and pair of solid silver sword
sheaths which now rest on his fire.

Mr.. Slavik is the Republican
candidate for the office of County
Clerk of Douglas County, having
been chosen unanimously by the
Republican Central Committee as
the nominee to fill tn unexpired
term of the former County Clerk.
This is the first time he has
ever been candidate for any pub
lie office. However. he has been
employed in the County Assessors
office for a period of IA years. He
worked under the late Sam x.
Greenleaf for 1919 years and was
made Chief Deputy by Mr.. Stolin-
ski when he was elected County
Assessor in 1888.
After accepting the nomination
he Immediately resigned as Chief
Deputy in the Assessors office,
knowing that the campaign would
require a great deal of time and he
did not want to slight his duties
in the County Assessors office and
campaign at the expense of the
taxpayer.
The County Clerk has many inn
portant duties under the law. In
addition to his duties as County
Clerk, he is also ex-officio County
Comptroller and as such, is gener-
al accountant and fiscal agent of
the County and exercises supervis-
ion over all of the offices of the
County charged in any manner
with receipt and collection and dis
bursement of county revenue.

Facts About The Railway
Commission

75,340 voters (15 percent) Of
those who went to the polls in the
1888 general election did not mark
their ballots for the office of Rail-
way Commissioner.
While the office of Railway
Commissioner is the farthest down
on the list of state offices, as it
appears on the ballot, 1t is still an
important one.
The average citizen is not FAM
liar with the duties and respons-

ate for this office to personally
meet more than a few persons in

The Railway Comission is fact

similar commission is often called
Commerce Commission, Public
Utilit,, Commission or "Public
Service Commission.
Briefly the Railway Commission
has certain duties and responsible

service of railroads, bus lines,
trucks, power companies and tele-

north. Compelled to leave the Old
Dominion, he located In Toledo.
Elected TO Congress
There his views on slavery made
him popular in Ohio. For a time he
had some connection with the Ameri-
can or know nothing" party, but the
newly organized republican party ap-
pealed to him. He attended q conven-
ton at Montpelier, o., where he made
a speech against slavery which at
tracted national attention, and his
election to congress followed shortly
afterwards.
In congress he took his place among
the "black republicans" as the anti
slavery members of the party were
called in those days. The secession
crisis was almost on the country, and
Ashley opposed all attempts to COM
promise the differences between the
north and south. Upon the outbreak
OF the war he gave his vigorous sup
port to all war measures and was in
many ways IN advance of his party
He favored the immediate freeing Of
slaves, as war measure and his re-
lations with President Lincoln were
strained until after the emancipation
proclamation. He was against General
Mcclellan, whom he looked upon as
q show fighter only.
Ashley became chairman of the
committee on territories In 1861. File
named the state Of Montana, and here
is an interesting bit of history Of how
the Treasure state came near losing its
name before the territory of Montana
was created. In March, 1885, former
Governor Edgerton wrote to Colonel
Sanders. as follows:

as I know, is as follows: On Dec. "a,

twice and referred to the committee
on territories. On Feb. IL, 1868, Mr.
Ashley reported house bill No. 626 to
provide a temporary government for
Montana. The bill was ordeded print
ed and recommitted to the same COM

reported back the bill with q recon-

Farmers Urged to
Start an EGrLy Brood

Every year for the last few years
the peak IN egg prices has advanced
so that the top prices are now received
in October or November rather than
in January and February, as was for
merly the case. Many poultrymen are
now finding that their pullets are
coming into production when prices
are declining, rather than when they
are on the upgrade.
This is one of the best reasons for
starting an early brood this year, but
there are others. In recent years, the
poultryman has become increasingly
conscious Of the fact that reduction Of
costs is an important factor in main
tanning a satisfactory income. If a
brood is started early in the season,
there will be plenty of time to raise
another, and perhaps two, before sum-
mer, and one in the fall. In this way
overhead Is cut drastically, and more
efficient use is made of equipment,
such as breeders and feeders, and the
laying house can be more nearly filled
to capacity.
Additional advantages are better
feathering and more rapid growth, less
mortality, and the fact that cockerels
are ready for market as broilers when
the price is good. You'll be sure OF
getting your chicks by ordering before
the rush is on, and, In addition, some
poultrymen claim that less time TO
sexual maturity Is required In the case
of early Matched chicks as they ap-
parently eat less grain In proportion
to mash than do later Matched chicks.

AVERAGE cow IN MILK REQUIRES

OF the milkman and his pump. the

milk production is bound to decline.
An average COW in milk requires
about 100 pounds or 125 gallons OF
water day, which Is about three or
four times as much as the dry COW
needs. 1t is evident from this that
the dairy herd must have an album
dant supply Of drinking water IL the
COWS are TO continue to produce large
quantities Of milk.
Experts recommend COWS In milk
be watered at least twice a day. the
water should be well above the freez-
ing temperature and should be warmed
to about the same temperature every
day. Cows that are forced to drink ice
water require more feed and produce
less milk than cows that are watered
properly.

Cattle and Sheep
Increase in State

The number OF sheep and cattle be-
ing fed in Montana this winter is
substantially larger than last year due
to the lessening of these activities In
the corn belt states, j. G. Diamond,
senior statistician for the agricultural
marketing service, announces.
Figures shown in the Dec agricul-
tural marketing service feeder report
show that $4,000 head of cattle and
$4,000 head of sheep and lambs are
being fattened for the midwinter mar
kets. Last year at this time $4,000
head of cattle and 100000 head Of
sheep and lambs were being fed in
the state.
With cattle and sheep feeding off
25 percent in the corn belt states live
stock feeding has increased sharply
here, Diamond reported.
The largest number of cattle ever
on record for the IL western states
are being fed this year, according to
the report.
