To say that the meeting of Mon- tana fruit growers, at Missoula last week, wasa success is to put it mildly. ~The Farmers’ Insti- tute was heldin conjunction with the Horticultural Society, and was the most interesting and enthusi- astic gathering of representative farmers ever held in the state. Many important subjects, were ably discussed by specialists, but, of course, the most important topic considered.at a Horticultural siden would naturally be “Fruit. Growing in, Montana,” with the king of fruits, the apple, in the lead. The wonderful dis- play of apples. was enough to give a wooden man an inspiration; and much-of—the—enthusiam of our speakers was, no doubt, due t6 the fact that they were surround- ed by great pyramids‘of the finest apples the eye ever beheld. If anyone is at all skeptical regard- ing the success of apple growing in western Montana, a trip to ‘the Bitter -Root- will dispel all doubts. All varieties are being produced and so many good varieties are be- ing produced that it is difficult ‘to determine what apple will be- come the general cropper as a wihtéF market apple. The live fruitgrower is still ex- perimenting and is hopeful that an apple will yet be found that will combine all requisites ‘néces- sary for a late keeping winter apple. Much valuable information is . disseminated by means of the Farmers’ Institute. One of the prominent features of the Farmers’ Institutes this winter is the active part taken by local talent. Our Prof. ‘Fortier, director “bf Mon- tana’s experimental farm, takes the ground that great benefit can be derived from an exchange of opinions based-on-—the actual ex- perience of the man who holds the plow. ... Whitehall wilt save a Farmers’ Institute in the near future, and we hope to-see all the farmers for twenty miles aroundon hand and ready to take an active’ part. Many important matters will be taken up and discussed, and who knows but it may be the means of awakening’ some of our people from the lethargy that has held them like grim death for the' last decade? Much can bgdone to improve conditions in the Jefferson. valley and its tributaries. We have a vast territory that is practically undeveloped. We have almost unlimited resources and nearby markets that are the best in the known world; and still we are let- ting golden opportunities pass by while our neighboring valleys are forging ahead with rapid strides and filling their coffers with lucre: Travel across the state of Mon- tana from north to south, from east to west, and you will not find a section of country more capable of development, or where the latent resources are as meagerly exhihited or heralded’‘to~the out- side worldas in the country im- mediately contiguous’ to White- hall. The land adjacent to our town is. a dreary waste of—sage brush with nothing to relieve the mo- notony except an occasional clump of willows bordering some small stream. It is generally admitted that most of this land is very pro- ductive; and actual experiments have shown that some. of the most profitable_crops_grown in_ this northern climate can be produced here in all their perfection. The impression is prevalent among our people that our soil is not adapted to-any crop except hay. That there is some ground for this erroneous idea can not -be denied. Some experiments have been made and the results have been very unsatisfactory; but others have obtained results just the opposite where the conditions seemed tobe identical. At first thought this would seem paradox- ical but such things have always existed in alt branches of business and. enterprise. One man makes arousing success, while another un- der like conditions, apparently, makes a disastrous failure. Itisnat- ural for the average man to observe and remember all the mistakes and failures of his neighbors, but_ his memory fails him when asked to point out some neighbor who has been eminently successful. We, meet men every day who cap. tell you what a woeful failuré a cet- tain young man made in an effort to produce.a few acres of straw- berries near town. ..Howeyer, they are insanely ignorant when we point ‘out such men WHITEHALL, MONTANA, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY: 28, as Judge Ccoley, who has a fine growing orchard of standard apples, crab apples, plums and all kinds of small fruits. His neigh- bor, Lorenzo Tinsley, hasa’ num- ber of thrifty cherry trees that are loaded with fruitevery year. But after you have convinced a man with these practical illustra- tions that the fault is not in” the soil or climate but in the experi- mentor he will sorrowfully shake his head and mutter, no water, no water. Weare aware that there 1s not enough water available to irrigate all the land surrounding Whitehall, but we also know that the duty of what water we now ve can be more than doubled by -fiudivions nutagiment! PEE con- aervation oftwateris an unknown Quantity to the ayerage Montan- an. Travel through the arid lands south.of Montana and you will see one cubic foot of water doing the duty of-four cubic feet in Mon- tana. “But thousands of inches of unappropriated water are flowing down the Jefferson river; and the expense of diverting it to the land to be irrigated would be in- considerable compared with thous- ands of canals béing operated at a profit in different. parts~of the state. Water must and will be had to make this desert blossom as the of beautiful homes owned by happy, contented and prosperous people. We will not, stop at present to portray the = effect that all this will have on the future prosperity of Whitehall. We imagine that we can see wonderful changes * transpiring under this new development; but, after all these desirable things have been consummated, the knowing one wil swell, up with conscious pride and say: \y told you so.”’ T.

Then we will have hundreds FEED BABY SLOWLY. ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT FAC- TORS IN CHILD REARING. Reasows Why Food Should Not Be ae Rapidly Into the Little wice Which Applies te Grown Folks as Well as Babes. \ In the proper bringing up of a child there-is nothing absolutely more tm- portant than this one thing—to teach it te eat slowly. Every groom knows and observes the rule in the care of a horse that rapid eating ia fatal to digestion. There are all sorts of patent mangers to preveut the horse swallowing his oats too quickly. The man who has no patent manger knows enough, when necés- sary, to put a stone in the manger, peattering the oats Bround it, so that the horse may be compelled to eat slowly. If the horse's inclination is to gulp.down water tco fast, the care- ful map will put a big sponge in the water, compelling slow driyking. A child’s appetite, when he is al- lowed to eat rapidly, is always in ex- cess of his actual needs unless the child is in bad health. The reason for this is extremely’ simple. The child craves food because his body requires to manufacture, new tissue. Lie is growing, 4nd he must not only replace the used, up tissues that his dally life destroys, but he must make new flesh, new muscles, new bone and new blood every day, adding weight and size, The sensation of bunger is not the craving of an empty stomach, satisfied as soon as the stomach Is filled; it is a craving that is felt by the nerves all over the body. This craving cannot possibly be satisfied until the stomach has begun the work of transforming the food Into blood, flesh, muscics, ete.; consequently the sensation which we call hunger persists long aficr the child or grown person has rapidly ab- sorbed as much food’ as it really needs. A million foolish parents urge their children to eat a great deal and always let them eat as much as they want to. Yet all of these know that a famished mar taken off a wreck wil! ent himself to death if allowed to do #0. The very hungry child goes to the same excess, Only in a lesser degree. The great enfeguard against that excess in eat- ing, which kilis 90 per cent of men be- fore their time and which accounts for 99 per cent of children’s diseascs, Is slow eating. Nearly all children eat too rapidly. They do so by nature; Siow euting Is a matter of education. But too often the mother or the purse teaches the child the habit of eating fast. When the baby is little, ft is fed one spoonful ata time, Before it has time to half chew or even Etlp down the first tea- spoonful of food another is held to its lips. Of course It swallows what it has in its mouth and seizes upon the next mouthful. The habit thus Incul- cated by foollsh adults often ruins the child permanently, Four factors count in the healthy as- similation of food, factors which par- ents and nurses should remember. As- suming the food to be properly prepar- ed, thoroughly cooked and wisely se- lected, there comes, first, the work of the teeth, which prepare the food for easy digestion; second, the action of the saliva, with which the food must be thoroughly mixed in order to mint- mize the neeessary work of the gastric juices _in the stomach; third, the work of the stomach itself; fourth, and most important, a proper supply of blood and of heat. Force your child to chew slowly and thoroughly every mouthful. If hoth- ing else will do, compel bim at fre- quent intervals to lay down his knife and fork that the importance of pro- longed chewing may be impressed upon him. Don’t allow your child to gulp down water or any other liquid with his solid food. If you allow him to drink while be eats, the salivary glands will not act. They will not need to act, for he will be able to swal- low his food easily when it is made moist by water. You can't do anything to help along the unconscious process which gocs on in the stomach, but you can do ev- erything to help that process by at- tending to the fourth whieh demands blood and the heat ‘of the blood in the stom: Allow no child after eating to, e violent exercise, to study. or evop fp read an exciting book. The brain has first call upon the service of jhe heart, and as soon as the brain is excited the blood leaves the stomach to the head. The muscles also When too violently ex- erted draw the blood away from the stomach. It is absolutely impossible for a child or a grown person to digest properly or to get strength and vitality from what he eats unless for atJenst a baif hour after eating the stomach be al- lowed to monopolize the blood supply. Children should be kept quiet in some way, especially very young chil- dren, after they have eaten. In the case of very young babies nature at- tends to this mercifully by making them go to sleep as soon as they have absorbed their milk. Older children ought not to go to sleep directly after: eating for physiological reasons which may be explained at some other time; but they ought to be quiet and calm, Tens of thousands of children in homes where this newspaper is read are ruin- ed in health, by studying right after meals. The public school system which gives children too short a rest- ing period in the middie of the day is responsible partly for this, and the home studies at night are also respon- sible. Every word that:is said here applies to grownup people, of whom not one in a hundred has ever been taught to apply to himself such common sense care as is bestowed on a second class horse.—New York Journal. PEOPLE OF .THE DAY ‘We Saye War Was a Blessing. The principal guest at the celebra- tion of Lincoln’s birthday by the Lin- colin club of Grand Rapids, Mich., Wo Ting Fang, said: “I am inclined to think that the civil war, coming as it did, was not alto- gether a bad thing for this country. Measured by the wealth destroyed by WU TING FANG, fire and ‘sword and the quantity of blood spilled on the batticheld the war was'an appalling calamity. But meas- ured by the glorious results achieved, chief amoung which was the settlement of the slavery question, it was not an unmixed evil. Before the war slavery had been an incubus, weighing heavily upon the life and energy of the nation, It had divided the country Into hostile factions, The question of slavery had to be settled before the country could chter upon the road of prosperity and peace.” Doesn't Deal With Probabilities. Judge Advocate General Lemly ts nelther the prophet vor the son of a prophet, but his prominence in the Schley case has made Lim a target for all sorts of questions regarding the future as well as the past. He draws his line sharply between the two. A day or two ago a visitor dropped In to Inquire as to the outcome of the Meade court martial. “Meade was nc- quitted,” answered the judge advocate general promptly, without looking up from bis work, “How about the charges which were filed by Meade against Lauchhelmer?” asked the visitor. “That question you will have to pro- pound to the weather bureau.” “But the weather bureau is not tn- volved in this matter. I don’t under- stand you,” “It deals with probabilities. I never deal with probabilities.”\—Cor Pitts burg Dispatch. An Amateur Tragedian, Many little aneqdotes are told of Charles 8. Boyd, whom Governor Ode! appointed to sueceed Colonel Partridge as commissioner of public works. Mr, Boyd Is an exceedingly popular club- man, very tall and of somewhat mass- ive bulld, with a voice which gt times ean be made to resound through a large Galt. , When Mr. Boyd is among his inti- mates, be js often asked to recite, and his favorite selection is the speech of Richelieu beginning, “Mark where she stands; around her form I draw the awful circle of our most holy church.” Very few tragedians, Mr. Boyd's friends assert, attained the impressive- ness of his delivery in this selection, and at club reunions, when be is pres- ent, the evening Is not cousidered com- plete without the recitation.

A newspaper man who desired to in- terview the Right Hon, Arthur J. Bal- four was,.by a servant's error, shown into Mr. Balfour’s study while another visitor was wjth him. With a foolish want of tact the reporter tried to in- duce the leader of the house of com- mons to talk while this third person was still in the room. . “Will you,” replied Mr. Balfour to a query of the newspaper man in. his sweetest, gentlest manner, “be so kind as to go outside the door and close It?” *.Ne Doubt About It. “Bridget, what did you say to Miss ' Bmith when she called?’ ~ “I tould heryou were out this tolme “for gure, ma’am.”—Harper’s Bazar. DISTILLED WATER, Tt le the Purest, Dest and Only Ab- solautely Safe Water, Boll a gallon of water uatil there is but a quart left, and the quart will contalu all the impurities of the gal- Jon and be mearly four times as im- pure as before. Continue the bolling, and all the impurities—animal, vege- table and mineral, except the gases thrown off--will be reduced to one sol- i mae The water Which Is evapo rated and passed off as steam ie very nearly pure. But, you will say, it kills the dangerous germs. We will stip- pose it docs, but their eemains furnish material for bacterial life to feed up- on. Do you relish the idea of eating in food cr drinking their dead and de- composing bodies, which polson the water by their decomposition? The fact is scientific investigution has prov- ed that boiling only kills the feeblest, the least,injurt gerws. . Pry. a {simple experinicht, Pot! un. boiled eclty water in one bottle and the saine that has been boiled for half an hour or more in another, cork Ughtly for a week or longer and note the dif- ference. The unbotled water will show a marked depreciation in looks, taste and smell, but that which has, been boiled will be so much worse In these respects that no one would think of using it. In-comparison with “these you can submit a properly scaled bot- tle of pure distilled water to the same conditions, and at the end of a year it will be found. to be as pure, sweet and perfect as when first bottled. The purest and best and the only ab- solutely sufe water to use for drink- iug and the preparation of all foods and artificial drinks is that produced by distillation, but the most imperfect one produces a water far superior ip purity and healthfulness to the very best spring waters under their most | fayorable conditions. The nearest ap- | proach to it in purity is rainwater, Which is distilled water of nature's own production, when collected on clean surfaces, ip uninbabited sections, where the alr ts pure and uncontam! nated by smoke, dust, city and factory gases, etc.—Sanjtarian, SOME WRITERS, Locke is sald to have spent over six years in the preparation of his essay, “On the Human Understanding.” Lamartine, the great French poet, was happily married and received great aid from bis wife in all his un dertakings. The groat Dante was married to a notorious scold, and when he was in exile he had no desire to see her, al- though. sho was the mother of his six children. c Wolfe is said to have written “The Burial of Sir John Moore” In one even Ing directly after news had been brought of the defeat at Coruna _and the death of the gallant British officer. A friend of the late Walter Besant relates that the novelist always kept on hia desk before him a list of the characters of the novel he happened to be at work on, their relationship and appearance. Hans Christian Andersen formed his style by parrating his stories to vari- ous groups of children before he. wrote them down. His one thought was to become famous, and he was very care ful not to make any enemies, Dickens says in the introduction to “David Copperfield” that he spent two years in the composition of that novel. He did not usually require .so long a time, many of his novels being finish- ed fn less than a year and most of bis shorter stories in a few days. Animals and Salt. Among, certain people there is a strong idea that nothing Is worse for dogs than salt, bat as a matter of fact, when administered tn émall quantities, it materially assists the process of di- gestion. There is no doubt, however, that to give dogs or any other animals broth or pot liquor in which salt pork or bacon has beén boiled would be al- most éqnivalent to giving them a small dose of poison, The use of salt among horses, cattle and sheep is advocated by the bighest veterinary authorities. Pigs, on the contrary, are extremely susceptible to the poisonous influence of the agent, and experiments have been made°* which had, after small doses regularly administered, fatal re- sults. Llabitually, as a matter of course, all animals consume a certain portion of salt, as it exists in certain propor- tions in most articles of food.—London Math... needy Tilden's Dog. At one of the early dog shows Sam- uel J. Tilden bought an immense Great Dane dog. ‘‘What’s bis name?” asked a visitor, * “Ask him,” sald Mr. Tilden. “What good would that do?” “It's his name,” was the reply. So it was—“Askim.” The dog knew a number of tricks, but would only perform when fed. “He'd make a good politician,” said his owner as he gave him a bone— New York World. .

Some of the recipes in the up to date cookbooks call for the use of a freezing cave for some of the cold desserts, These utensils are not in common use fm every kitchen, but are to be had at any good house furnishing shop ot gounter and are a great convenience. An oblotig tin box sixteen or eighteen inches high is fitted up with shelves or trays which rest one on another by means of feat attached to the corners... of each trax. Handles are also aftixed to each tray that they may be casily taken out, the whole case fitting in a wooden box just as a can fits In a freezer. Whatef§jr is desired to freeze, Mttle molds of biscuit glace and varl- ous other cream mixtures are arranged on the trays, the cover it fitted on and the box burled tm ice and salt. Frozen desserts that necd no spring oftep?niore taffy within eh of the one servant establishment than our ice creains. It is often the stirring part of the process that, taking time, makes the dessert impossible on a busy day. Sofa and Easy Chair, Whatever else you emit in the sit- ting room, don’t forget the sofa or lounge, I like to call it sofa because it reminds me of Cowper's poem tn.its + praise, The lounge may be covered simply with chintz or with some rich looking solid colored worsted or half worsted brocaded stuff, It should be well supplied with pillows, An easy chair or two upholstered in rich look- ing’durk material is also a great ald to comfort and cozy appearance, It fs a veritable nest of ease in which to read, to dream or to, sink down in and rest after a health giving tramp over the hills on a cold, bracing day. Neo More Tablecloths. mahogany table under a cloth is a sheer waste.of beauty, and so plate searfs have taken the place of this cloth. These scarfs are about eight inches in width. Of finest damask, they are bordered on both edges with fine napery lace and are epread on the table so as to form a border of linen about a square of mabogany center, On this tnclosure of mahogany the candelabra, dishes of sweets and flow- ers are placed, and the result is very effective, A Fancy Workbaa.

It is a specially prepared cotton, looking just like silk and is to be bad in all kinds of artistic tints. Vor Honrse Cold. A remedy for a‘honrse cold that is highly indorsed is a bit of porous pilas-~ ter. The pilaster is cut into three pleces, one of them applied at a time longth- wise just below where the collar fas- tens, letting it extend down on the chest.

A very useful thing to the housewife is a white rag drawer stored with all kihds of rags ready for any emergency. It should be divided by a partition in the middle. Table, bedroom and coarse rags should kept on one side, wlifle all sorts of linen, invaluable for surgical ca should be kept on the other. A place might also be ‘separated off for gauzy materials for use with ‘ poultices. Distnfecting Sickrooms. It is not sufficient in cleaning rooms that Lave been oceupled by persons sick with contagious diseases to simply expose them to disinfecting vapors.
