CKXTIIAI. MONTANA.
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.

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

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.

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.
