FAvoRs JUDITH BASIN.
Insurance Company Prepared to Loar
Half a Million Here.

Insurance Company Prepared to Loan
Half a Million Here.
Harry Yaeger, Of the firm of Yaeger
& Godfrey, of Helena, state agents
for the Union Central Life Insurance
company, of Cincinnati, left for home
Saturday, after visit of over a week
in LewistOwn. Mr.. Yaeger is no
stranger to this city, having lived here
at one time, and with other Helena
men, is developing fine ranch prop
erty on the Missouri.
The primary object of Mr.. Yaeger's
visit at this time was to arrange for
the investment by his company of
large amount of money in Fergus
county, the Union Central being re-
quired to place it's surplus funds in
farm mortgage securities or state and
national bonds. AS the former pay
the larger interest, and are, as rule,
equally safe, the investments are TAX
ing that direction, and Montana is an
inviting field, as the interest rates are
little higher here than in the Da-
kotas and most other western states.
The company last year loaned sever
al million dollars on farms in the
United States, the net rate of the in
come being Ito per cent, which Is
divided among the policy holders an
nually. The company has now invest
ed in the Gallatin and Yellowstone
valleys something like half a million
dollars, and when Mr.. Yaeger took
hold of the business, he began look
ing for the most desirable field in
Montana for further Investments. He
found it in the Judith basin, and has
no hesitancy in saying that as much
money will be placed in Fergus coun-
ty as has been invested in the Gal
latin and Yellowstone.
I'VE have picked this 1leld out as the
most desirable in the whole state of
Montana" said Mr.. Yaeser, "and this
money coming in here ought to help
In many ways. It will relieve the local
banks from this line of loans, and en-
able them to place their money for
other purposes, where it will be EN-.
ployed to develop the vast resources
of the county. That is what we think
of Fergus and the Judith basin, and,
as for Lewistown, am thoroughly con-
WINGED that it has great future.
do not know of more promising
town in the whole state. The way it
Is building up is astonishing to me,
yet this building up has not outstrip-
ped the demands of increasing popu-
lation and business. There is sound
conservatism back of it all that in
vites the strongest kind of confidence.
Lewistown. the Judith basin and Fer
gus county are good enough for u.s."

A trip on the river in a govern.
ment yacht means much to the
average sightseer, and to any one
who has travelled much, the beauty
of natural scenery alOrR the route
appeals with singular persistency.
The homecoming sympathy is
upperInost in the heart, and to the
exile who has returned to the State
of his birth, the sight of upland,
bill, valley, and meadow. seems
after all, to be tle dearest in all
the wide, wide world.
It was most delightful priv

little yacht, Pearl, going down the

to inspect barge of coal sunken

The PEARL left Lock No. 4
promptly at $3.50 a. m. with the
superintendent at the helm. and
the engineer at his post OF duty.
The experiences of passing through
the lock were novel and exciting;
the small yacht seemed but a little
speck below the massive walls on
either side, and as the gate swung
open to let us through, the "pass-
ing out" was as swift and nOiseless
as that other silent craft that leaves
no sound save the heart throb of
parting. The turn in the tide bore

NOTHING NEW UNDER THE

A friend recently sent us a copy
of 1.-The Commentator, published
in this city," December 20, 1926, in
which there is noted the fact that
several brokers and bankers had
been indicted for attempting to de-
fraud in certain banking transac-
tions.
In the same paper is an adver-
tisement of the old Mansion
House,, which was run as a hotel
for many years. 1t is the building
RAINING from, and including, the
Jeffers House, on Main, down to
the millinery store peXt to Mcclure

a noted hotel in the old days.
The paper is curiosity and many
items show that the same. old
things are occurring to-day as
occurred then.
