We came to this country in 1910 from North Dakota where we had re sided for twenty-five years. The first summer was very hot and dry all over the Northwest, and the greater part of the Dakotas and Alberta did not raise enough grain for seed, ami all the west and south of us were in as bad, if not worse condition. Our crop was light winter wheat, yielding from ten to forty-four bu shels per acre. Alfalfa, a never fail ing crop was good, the preceedins j ear had been an abundant harvest, and the following years, 1911-12-13 have all been prosperous. When we settled near Winnett, forty miles north of Musselshell and sixty miles east of Lewiston, there was not a shack In sight, our near est neighbor an old ranchman, was two miles distant and the next six miles away. Now all the land is taken and the people are jubilant over the present prospects. When we filed on nearly eight hundred acres of land we thought it a semi arid country that would be easy to secure title to and expected to leave one of the family to run a small stock ranch and valued it at one thousand dollars per quarter section. We are now delighted with our home and believe it to be worth five times our first estimate. We brought six ty dollars worth of cattle and could now sell them for four hundred. Neither horses or cattle cost us one dollar last winter for food or shelter and are in fine condition. Our bogs have been much more profitable. We landed without money and have made our way and have few debts and no mortgages and w ith two part ners wo are putting in three hundred acres of grain. Many others with small capital have done far better. We are delighted with our neighbors, our climate and our prospects and expect to put in the rest of our days in Montana. Yours truly, S. F. BEER, Pastor M. K. Church, Grass Range, Montana. NKW JOl HNAI.IS.M COVKSK Specialists Will (Jive Novel Phase of Advertising Study. University of Oregon, Eugene, June 8. "The Psychology of Adver tising", a new and uncommon course, will be offered by the department of journalism at the I'niversity of Ore gon next fall. It will be given by Dr. Edmund S. Conklin, professor of psychology. Dr. Conklin (will take up the subject almost wholly from the scientific side, that is, from the point of view of the psychologist rather than of the advertising man. A companion course will probably be "The Economics of Advertising," also given by a man who is a spec ialist in that line. The department of journalism will then be offering about ten courses instead of tiie hum ble one on the curriculum two years The Me.Iern Trend. If father Noah lived today And it began to ruin, He would not build an ark. He'd Iiuild a hydroaeroplane. If wicked Nero lived today And Home began to burn, He would not play a violin, A phonograph he'd turn, if Ben Hur lived with us today, No chariot he'd ride, He'd buy a 9u horsepower car To win his fame and bride. If poor old Jonah lived today He'd find the travel finer, Instead of-ridins in a whale, He'd try an uicaan liner. If mother Eve lived here today, She'd surely have to smile, She would not change her mode of dress, And she'd be right in style. .Makes l.an l Heal. George W. Flint, the hustling real estate man of Lexington, recently closed a deal whereby the Shelby Lee place was transferred by' V. E. Way to Carl Her, of Timber. Orezon. Consideration, $25 per acre. Mr. Her will move on to the place at once, bringing his stock and implements with him from below. The deal is largely a trade of places, Mr. Way taking over the land owned by Mr. Her in Washington county. Miss Ella Wallen, teacher in the public school for the past year de parted for Portland Sunday, where she will visit for a week before going to her home in North Dakota. She will return in September. A number of leading democrats of Pendleton, believing that none of the present applicants will receive the appointment of postmaster, have endorsed the name of Miss Minnie Privett, for twelve years a member of the civil service. Two men were drowned and fire chief McDowell was seriously In jured in a fire which consumed $200 000 worth of property on the water front in Portland last week. There is much dispute as to the orign of the fire. The. Hermiston Herald states that there are many idle men around the railroad yards In that town who will not work when they are offered a Job. Construction work on the Coy ote cutoff would give many employ ment, and yet 17 of them refused to go out to work when a job was offered. MAIICHING ON. The history of womankind is a story of abuse. For ages men beat, sold, and abused their wives and daughters like cattle. The Spartan mother that gave birth to one of her own sex disgraced herself; the girl j baby was often deserted in the moun- tains to starve. China bound and deformed women's feet. Turkey veiled their faces. America denied them equal educational advantages with men. Most of the world still refuses them the right to participate in government, and everywhere wo men bear the brunt of an unequal standard of morality. But the women are on the march. They are walking upward and on to the sunlit plains where the thinking people rule. China has ceased bind ing their feet. In the shadow of the harem Turkey has opened a female school. America for half a century has given the women equal educa tional advantages, and America, we believe, will enfranchise them. Wherever women have voted there are only words of praise for the re sults. Wyoming enfranchised her women in 1869, Colorado in 1893. The legislature of both these States have passed resolutions declaring that women suffrage has been a de cided advantage to home and State. I'tah gave her women the vote in 1S9B. Hon. William Spry, Governor of Utah says: "The women of Utah have been exercising the right of suf frage for many years to the advan tage of the State, the home and the women themselves." Idaho enfran chised her women in IS 96 by a vote of two to one. The Hon. Burton L. French, United States representative from Idaho, says: "My judgment is that woman suffrage has made for better government in the States where it has been granted." Wash ington bestowed the ballot on her women in 1910 by a vote of three to one. Hon. Ernest Lister, Govern or of Washington, says: "The re sults in the State of Washington have certainly indicated that the women of the State assist in public affairs, rather than otherwise, by having the right to vote." California gave her female citizens the vote in 1911. Hon. Hiram W. Johnson, Governor of California gard equal suffrage as having justi fied itself in California. The women have proved themselves a great force for good government. In several particular instances the women have waged battles in this State in behalf of decency and good government that challenge the highest regard for them as voting citizens." Kansas, Arizona and Oregon adopt ed woman suffrage in 1912. Hon. George H. Hodges, Governor of Kan sas, says: "1 hope the time will soon be here when we will have nation-wide equal suffrage." Hon. George W. P. Hunt, Governor of Ari zona, says: "In my own mind there is no doubt that it will make for cleaner and better politics, that real reforms of political evils will be more sincere and lasting, and it will lead to a higher political morality in general." Hon. Oswald West, Gov ernor of Oregon, says: "The women not only register and vote, but they vote for those men and those meas ures that make for decent govern ment." Illinois women gained the vote last year. We can do little to help and not much to hinder this great movement. The thinking people have put their O. K. upon it. It is surging forward to its goal just as surely as tMs old earth is swinging from the grip of winter toward the summer's harvest. Leslies Weekly.
