C. l.. Wood and I. H. Chase Visit Ex-
pertinent Station North OF Town.
The experiments being conducted
by the Business Mems club are prov
ing very successful, SO far as present
indications are concerned. Mayor G..
l.. Wood and I. H. Chase were out
to the station a mile north of the
city Sunday and had a very fair OPP
portunity to inspect the condition OF
the crops. They found the small
grain, CONSISTING of wheat, fax, oats
and corn growing in fine shape ex-
cept for the slight damage done by
the hail a few days ago.
There are four varieties of wheat
being grown by the old and the new
method, and there are varieties of
corn, oats and flax. A marked diff
ference in the crops is noted. in
every instance in favor OF the new
method, there being over twenty per
cent improvement shown in favor of
the new method and in weight, over
that per cent.
Later, when the grain is ready to
harvest it is planned to have a rep
resentative Of the state agricultural
department visit the field and If pos
sible prevail upon the state to estab-
fish a station in this county. In
order to induce the state to locate

REASON FOR THE QUARREL
Question Of Finance Disrupts the
Federation Of Miners.

W.
Denver, July 22.-The expected
controversy over the adoption of
President Meyers report occupied
practically the entire time at to-
days session of the Western Fede-
ration of Miners convention. The
Insurgents opened the fight with an
attack on Meyers charge that the
Flynn adherents have attempted to
disrupt the federation for personal
preferment. The basis of the con-
troyercy was found in the refusal
of the federation officers to credit
the Butte union with its share of
three one dollar assessments for the
strike fund, but allowing it to apply
on the federation debt Of fifteen
thousand dollars to the Butte local.
Final action was not taken.
