LARGE REVENUE
FOR MONTANA

Montana IS share of the TWENTY-FIVE
per cent of the national forest reve-
nne derived by the states from the
forests within the borders for the lis
cal year ending June 10, last, will
amount to s><.s,ti7S .39.
This is the largest amount any sim
gle state will be- paid.
The total amount to be divided
among the different states, according
to a statement of the department Of
agriculture just issued, is S5OH, l!4.94.
This is sH7 .4.tz N3 more than last year,
or al increase OF Il little over fifteen
per cent.
The money will go into the road
and school funds of the states bene-
fitted, which is ont Of the provisions
OF the law creating national forests,
and the payments are intended as an
offset to the loss ct income from tax
able property sustained through the
withdrawal OF forest land from entry
under the public land laws.
The amounts that will go to the
different states are AS follows:
Montana, SS3, ,67s.:,S: Arizona. $751;
220.3S: Arkansas. $2?O4.44: Califor-
mia, $50. .752.Sl: Colorado, $50, ,3O6. 10;
Florida, S7O6.3s: Idaho. s86,O74 81:
Kansas, *l,OO4.67; Minnesota, s457-
III; Nebrask. .s2, s2O..5: Nevada, sl6,-
3l4.33: New Mexico, ,S2S ,529. 80; North
Dakota. s63.64: Oklahoma, 1926. 10;
Oregon, $50, ,635.S7: South Dakota,
S9.SOS.03; Utah, s32 2,!O5.49: Washing
ton, s23.67l.99: Wyoming, s3l ,7O4.;4.
1n certain Of the states coming un-
der the operations of the law the i'll
crease over amounts paid last year is
considerable. In California it is said
it is twenty-five per cent, in Idaho,
thirty-tive and in Oregon nearly fifty
per cent. The increases are the re-
suit Of greater activity in national
forest timber sales in those states,
and may he accepted as an earnest of
what will happen rs the timber sup
ply the government is caring for
comes into full demand.
Since the timber cut will always be
limited to what the forests will keep
OH growing. the income to the states
will be permanent. This would not
be the case had hasty and improve
dent exploitation been permitted.
Eventually the states will receive
many times over what the forests are
yielding them now, according to the
calculations of the department Of ag.
ricultnre, for there is as yet on the
whole only Il very restricted demand
for the government timber.

CONCERNING HIGH
COST OF LIVING

The high cost Of living is being dis
cnssed everywhere nowadays. The
discussion is not confined to this
country; it is world wide, says the
Miles City Independent. Though
some Of the worlds food products
may he in the hands OF trusts, none
Of them are controlled by trusts to
such All extent that prices have there
by been materially influenced. Like
all other commodities, our food pro-
ducts are controlled by supply and de-
mand. Demand for them the world
over is growing more rapidly than the
supply, and until the world finds
more effective methods of production
it is difficult to see how prices can be-
come much lower. We hear much of
a growing discrepancy between the
price the farmer obtains for his pro-
ducts and that which the consumer
has to pay for them. Such items as
higher wages which the wholesaler
and retailer have to pay. higher rent,
and the expensive service winch the
consuming public demands have much
to do with this discrepancy in the far
mer's selling price and the consum-
ers' purchasing price.
There is another very important
factor in this cost problem, and that
is the constant rapid growth of our
cities. notwithstanding the fact
that strong efforts have been made in
recent years to interest more people
in agriculture. the ratio OF the rural
to the urban population is rapidly
growing smaller. Note these figures:
ln.l7N the urban population amount
ed to nearly 3.4 per cent of the total:
in lS4O-5O years later--it was So per
cent; in lS!W-after another M-year
periOd-it was 20.2 per cent: in 1900,
33.l per cent: and the 1910 census.
which is not yet complete on this
point, will show still relatively
larger urban population.
In the last 10 wears our larger cities
have grown enormously, many of
them having increased s3 per cent in
size, while the rural population. az
