THE n. ". +. i.
The North Montana Fair association

The North Montana Fair association
will open its grounds to the public to-
day. Large stables Of the first flyers
in this and adjoining states are on the
ground and more will arrive today.
1t goes without saying that the direc-
tors have perfected every arrangement
looking to the security, convenience anu
comforts of man and beast. Nothing
has been overlooked. 1t is hardly nee
cssary to add that the racing will be
conducted with due regard for the rights
of all. The association will guard its
good name with jealous care. This is its
first meeting and it cannot afford to
close it with the shadow of reproach
resting upon its conduct. The manage
ment is composed of gentlemen whose
names are a guaranty that no monkey
work will be permitted upon the track.
They propose that the name--North
Montana Fair association-shall be a
of favors to none and fair play
to all. The attendance promises to be
large and interest in the several events
to be sustained throughout the meeting.
Let all join in making this, the first
meeting of the association. a gratifying

A DOSE or

In the languageof the old story ~tellers:
Once upon a time not many years ago a
shoe factory firm in San Francisco.
known as Buckingham e. Hecht. con-
cluded it would dispense with white
labor and employ Cinnamon as a matter
of economy. This it did in defiance of
the unions. The result is what might
have been expected. Messrs. Bucking-
ham ~ Hecht now talk of pulling up
stakes and leaving the city. They have
taken their dose of Chinese and are
ready to quit. How it came about we
will let the San Francisco Daily Report
tell:
after awhile, however. when the
coolies had learned the trade, Chinese
capitalists established factories, nut
the well-trained fellow-countrymen at
the benches, proceeded to undersell the
white manufacturers and demoralized
the whole trade. They are doing SO now.
Ii there were no Chinese shoe factories
here would white manufacturers he
talking OF pulling up stakes; and if
white capitalists had never employed
coolies and taught them how to make
shoes, would there ever have been any
Chinese shoe factories here? That is
the test question"
1t is a question very easily answered.
No Cinnamon can make American shoes
unless he receive competent instruction.
That instruction must primarily be
given by white men. Ergo; if white
had not taught the heathens the
trade there would be no heathens shoe
makers. Montana lovers of the moon
rat and puppy.eating Orientals
may construct an axiom from the az.
.perience of the white shoemakers of San
Francisco, which may be thus briefly
stated: But not a knife in the hands of
a servant who may turn it edge against
you.

EUROPE'S WHEAT SHORTAGE.

At the request of Bradstreets Mr..
William +. Bear has made a special in
vcstigation Of the probable demand of
Europe for breadstutfs during the year
1912 and recently mailed his report.
which appears in full in that journal of
the Sth inst. The report is a very ey-
haustive one and the tables indicate the
work of a conservative statistician. The
essence of the report is contained in two
tables of figures which indicate the sur
pluses and deficiencies of wheat in Euro
pean countries for this year and the last.
The exporting countries are Russia-in-
Guiding Poland, Austria Hungary, Rou-
mania. Bulgaria, and Servia. Their cs-
timated total exports are 100000 bush
els. The importing countries are the
United Kingdom, France. Germany,
Italy, Spain and Portugal, Switzerland,
and Turkey. Their net imports for
1891 9 are placed at 81 100000 bushels.
The exporting countries having a surplus
of 90,0OO,OOO bushels reduces the net i'm
ports to 2S1 100000 bushels. 1t is esti-
mated that India will supply 100000
bushels, leaving Europe 24S,OOO,OOO bush
els short. The surplus of the United
States is put at 1ii,000,000 bushels. This
surplus will find its way to the Euro
pean markets, but that country will then
be ~10l,000,000 bushels short, which it
must supply from minor outside sources.
Thequestion is where is it to come from:
Even allowing ~lG0,0O0,O00 bushels of
wheat for export from the United States
would lack Si,OO0.OOC bushels to
meet her wants of breadstufs. With
these figures before them the wheat
growers Of this country can see still
prices before them for their surplus.
The effect of the European shortage
be felt in Montana and farmers who
wheat to sell and can hold it will
make money by keeping it for the top
prices which will surely come.

THE TRUE INU.ARUNESS.

The indianapolis journal complains
that 1.-THE administration and Prince Rus

fellow. but why should he be the object
of such fond regard above his fcllows:"

GRASS-FED BEEF.

There is some truth in the remarks of
the Drovers' Journal concerning grass
fed beef. But they do not apply with
the same force to Montana range beeves
as to eastern grass-fed stock. 1t may
be quite true that cattle fed exclusively
on grass fatten rapidly and do not have
the solidity and tirmness which charac-
terize beef fed on orr and dry products.
But to depression in the Northwestern
range cattle trade which now prevails,
and which is made a case in point by the
journal, does not prove that cattle fat
tened upon mutMed bunch grass kill
out "green" and "soft" as the Journal
puts it. 1t says that buyers claim they
do, and that therefore they are not as
good for the purpose as native stock,
and then adds: "This view of the case
is very plausible, and it begins to look
as if stockmen who wish to secure the
highest market values will have to "corn
up" their cattle. In British markets it
is said that ''grass-fed" cattle bring the
highest market price, but then where
stock is slaughtered for immediate con
sumption quality is looked at without
reference to the chances of perishing in
refrigerators In this country where
beef is shipped thousands of miles buy
ers have to look more closely into its
Ieeninp uualitics"
1t will be many a day before western
cattle are "corncd up" and will be
onger before the Chicago market can
get along without western range beevcs.
There is no better keeping beef goes into
he Chicago market than cattle fattened
lpon matured and fully ripened bunch
As a rule all Montana bceves are
hus fattened. But in seasons like the
when grass attains an abnormal
in June cattle fatten very rapidly
nd the beef may be called a little green
nd soft. This, howe ,er, is the exccp-
ion, not the rule. AS a general thing
'estern cattle are shipped from matured
rass and their meats are as firm and
weet as any corn-fcd steer in Illinois.

RAIN MAKER MELBOURNE is puzzling
the incredulous at Canton, Ohio, with
his machine. An exchange says his
effort has been to produce rain on every
Sunday. He has operated to that end
for nine weeks, and it is conceded that
rain fell on eight consecutive Sundays,
but his critics insist that they have
scored a point OF him the last Sunday.
The man explains by saying that Satur-
day night he had the machine working a
little too well, as it was bringing the rain
ahead of time. Consequently he shut it
off, and it turned so cool that night that
the Sunday job was a hard one, but he
got a sprinkle. He does not abate any
of his claims, but insists that he can
convert great deserts into great lakes.
Ii he is correct he has the biggest thing
discovered in recent times, and will have
a great monument.
