Bennett Writes Concerning Picnic. We are all interested in the work that Is being carried on at the eta tion, whether we have ever seen it or not, we know of the excellent work that is being done The re- sults of thefts's years are beginning to 'show up in good shape. They tare demonstrating what goodfarming 'will do and What one can expect front 11106Pr farming. Every man, woman s and child should visit the grounds and see what is being done. We say chile'because they are our' future farmers. 1 It is impossible to convey to the'People in words the benefits to be derived from the work at the station. In any :: 'new country' is very hard to interest people in intensive farm- ing, on account - of their being so much land to farm, they seem to think it is a part of theds duty to farm all they possibly can get over, but if each tumter would lust spend s, few - day's time each year at the station, and keep in touch with what is being done they would soon be convinced that better and more in- tensive farmin.g would be the more profitable way to farm. And, I am sure they would be seeding more oil their land to alfalfa, timothy, peas,: trams, corn, and a number ofother crops that can be grown very profit- ably on) the bench lands. When the farmers get to farming rsiht, and by using intensive, and diversified methods, they will not think of summer dallewing, -4 but grow a crop sante kind each sea son. Aed they will get better re- turns on an acreage from 80 acres than they get from 320 the way they are tanning at the present, If the farmers of the Judith Baeitli would use the methods that are be- ing employed at the station to grow crops and, as Supt. Stevens has said many times, they only recom- mend Methods that all farmers could Use practically, by using live -stock to deed, the crops, there can be pro- duced more dollars to the acre than is possible to Amino° from the Illi- nois and Iowa land that is , seiling for $200 per acre. It takes money to carry on this work. The government and state ?Xi very liberal with us in famishing us twith money 4, carry on this 'work. and they do what they can to help tall they possibly can to make the Partners' Annual Picnic a euocess, but they cannot pay for the enter- tainment, therefore it is necessary for the people of the Judith Basin to contribute, and the more support even the better the entertainment. The °dicers of the association set- tled on a plan last year of soliciting membership, and made a thorough canvas for memters. They were um. able to get enough - to defray the expenses and had to pass the hat to get enough; awl this year they hope to got enough members to meet the rwhole expense. and ask that you con- sider the good to be derived from the work at the station and help Waal the membership by . sending $1.00 to j.

At least not for some time to come. At the hearing conducted before the County Coimmissioners at LewistoWn On Monday the movement was defeat.' ed because of the failure to provide the required bond of $5,000 to Cover the expense of an election. The Hob- son men who were to sign as sure- ties on the bond refused to sign at the' lastmoment, and as the Stanford end the government our appreciation of their efforts in our behalf. F. A. BENNETT, Vice President judlith Basin Farm- ers' Picnic Association. Wen did not feel like assuming the entire responsibility, the petition was never presented. Odell W. McConnell, a Helena at- torney, who witth J. J, Jewell, of Hobson, appeared for the divisioh- dots, advised the Commiesioners that their only course was to deny the petition since the bond was not forthcoming, and this was done. 0. W. Belden represented the antidivielonists, while County Attor- ney Marshall represented the Com- missioners. Now that this attempt to divide Fergus county has been defeated It is hoped that lkoth sides Will for- get the bitterness of the campaign, and will all work to make Fergus a better county. LET THE PIGS PAY THE RENT. The Pig Pays -the Rent In Ireland— and he'll help to lift the mortgage in Montana.

It took seven or eight pounds of grain to each pouts . d ... of growth, so that his increase cost him about 18 to 20 cents a pound. Another man started with only one brood sow and worked up until last year he marketed two car loads of hogs at a net profit of $1,000. In pork production the stock, the feed, and the shelter and facilities most develop together. One makes fewer mistakes by beginning in a modest way. --F. S.

Gregg, the celebrated dairy expert and farm lecturer from (Minne- sota, gives the following five points to guide in selectiag a good dairy cow: 1. 'Thin and sharp in the crops, t back of the shoulders). Broad fleshy crops indicate a short Milker. 2. Lange barrel. The capacity to consume large quantities of food governs the capacity to give milk. A large roomy workshop Is neces: Barry to take care of raw materials. 3. Capacious adder, long and wide in its body attachment. Room between the thighs Is important. A meaty udder is not desirable, but that milks dawn and has much loose skin when 'empty. 4. Milk wells large—the orifices in milk veins pass back to the heart. There \weirs\ indicate the amount of blood flow. 6. The eye indicates the nervous energy. It is the gauge of the en- gine, or nervous system, that drives the vital organs of the body. If the five points are right, you are sure of a good dairy cow. \Of these\ says Mr. Gregg, \I consider the large milk wells most important. and the best index to the dairy ca- pacity of the cow.\ APPEARANCES COUNT.

REBEKAIIS TO °ROWE A LODGE AT STRAW Moore's Team, Considered Bee et the State's Best, Te Be the Degree Work A Rebekah lodge will be °resulted at _Straw an July 8th, a charter having been granted them We ?week and the Moore degree staff des- ignated to do the work. It will be Known aii Montana Lodge No. ati, and up to the present time hes about !forty pro..pective members, whigh Is al. probability will be Increased co fifty between now and the 5th. MIP£1. 0. F. David of this city has teen a.ppoloted district deputy grand president to institute the lodge and will be supported by the Moore Ju- dith Rebekah start! of 20 members. 'which, according to the enawnel re - port of the state grand president, is the best team ten the state. The people oft Straw are planning to make this a great event and are mak- ing preparations to entertain their guests in a royal manner. Tomorrow will see many visitors in Moore to celebrate Independence Day. These people will come from all parts of the county, and we all want them to reurn to their homes with a good word for our towo. We !want them to have a good time from the moment they arrive until they leave, but above all we want them to see a clean town and for this very (reason every citimen of Moore should see that his place of business and' residence presents a good appearance The scythe, the rake, the mower the hoe and the wheel -barrow can. be 'used to good advantage between now and tomorrow and will do much to tanprove the looks of the town. Out down, those unsightly weeds, burn ail that old rubbish and you will be doing your share toward making the town look its best. Unless this is done our visitors are apt to go home with the impression that the 'citizens of Moore are a lazy, shift- tless sort, with not enough pride in their own city to spend a few hours in making It look beautiful on an oc- casion like this. We don't want this sort of criticism, so let's sill get bugle and not give our guests on that day all opportunity of saying those things. Get the whale family out this evening and we will soon VIA things in \apple pie order\ and have everything in shape to receive our guests of tomorrow. GETs PROMOTION. C. Y.
