Roman Pioneer:

''Ronan Pioneer:
Fulfilling the promise |
made to you, | take the first op-
portunity and write you this let
ter. Eastern Montana, Southern
North Dakota, Southwestern
Minnesota, Western Iowa and
Southwestern Missouri have al
most complete crop failures.
South Dakota, Nebraska, Kan
sas, Oklahoma and Texas have a
complete failure in all kinds of
grain and almost complete
failure of feed and corn. From
Tracy, Minnesota to the Missouri
river the grain will not average
one-tenth of a bushel to the acre,
and the corn is not more than
knee high and with no ears. l
rode over fifty miles yesterday
in our automobile and saw but
one small stack of grain, and no
hay or fodder. I have lived in
South Dakota over twenty-five
years and in all that time | have
never seen anything in COMPARE
son to the conditions which now
exist.
when you think of the large
territory affected by the general
depressing conditions that now
prevail, you cannot help but say
that the people who live upon the
Flathead reservation have great
many things to be thankful for.
l, for one, am entirely satisfied
with the splendid crops about to
be harvested on the reservation,
and with the opening of the pros
poets which the future has for
all of us.
1--WE have concluded to close
out our office in this state and
expect that MIR. Hollingsworth
will move to Roman within the
next month.

The board of county commits
sioners have decided to appropri-
ate 81, 0C0 to make a display of
Missoula county grains and
grasses at the National Land
show to be held in New York
City in November. That is a, COM
mendable act, but quite a num-
Der living on the Flathead reser-
walton portion of Missoula coun-
ty feel like this: Had the COM
missioners appropriated the said
$1,000 to be used in building
good roads in this part of the
county, they would have seen to
it that such a display of real fine
grain and gaass would have been
on hand as to surprise even the
people living as close to the seat
of progressive agriculture as Mis-
soula. AS it is now, there is lit
tie chance of them getting even
samples Of their produce to the
railroad, to say nothing of the
mammoth crops to be harvested
in the next four weeks. Give us
some more money to fix the roads
and then see what the farmers
here will send to New York.

FOR CONVICT LABOR
Hill Says that Convict Labor is One
of the Country's Strongest
Assets.

Convict labor is one of the coun-
| try's greatest assets and should be
used as such," said Samuel Hill OF Sc
attic, son -in-law of ]. j. Hill, the rail
road magnate, in an address before
the San Francisco Commonwealth club
few days ago.
THE way to build state highways is
to utilize convict labor. This has be-
come settled policy of the state of
Washington, which has an advisory
board of which the members receive no
pay
Hill is chairman of this board
"The convicts are happy and cor
tented working on the highways pre-
ferring this to prison." he continued.
Nearly all are discharged healthy and
reformed.
1T costs Sc cents a day to keep each
convict. Each earns $1.s7 day abcv
his keep and does enough work mile
over free labor to MALE another saw
ing of 10 cents day, bringing his to-
tai saving to the state to $2.56 day.
HE makes another saving of $3.50
day for the man who would have to
be hired in his place to do the work.

the seven years apprenticeship, that Is
required Of British printers. A New
Yorker who complains OF having been
''railroaded" through his apprentice
ship, says that at 81 years OF
age he found in the /. r. u. course all
that he could have learned in the office
and more. There is also a young
printer who has become an ad.-writer
and designer, who is sure the instruc-
ton given has enabled him to hold his
new job. An adj compositor on daily
newspaper says he had learned many
things during the course which he had
never heard of before. while a Wis
consin printer says the quality of his
work has improved 100 per cent.
All this is in keeping with the pur-
pose of the typographical unions which
spend from $4,000 to $4,000 a year so
that the printers may receive this in
formation at less than cost. The skill
of it's members has always been an i'm
portant assets of the typographical
union. The specialization OF work
which now prevails in industry has
practically abolished the apprentice
ship system. These and other things
have a tendency to depreciate the
skill Of individual printers, thereby
weakening the power of the union. II

and in doing so, not only supplied the

The instruction anticipates the best

ing Of the future, and it is conceded it
will do much toward keeping American
printers the world leaders.

own ORGANIZATION
PRINTERS AND OTHER EMPLOYEES
OF METROPOLITAN NEWsPA-
PER CONDUCT THEIR OWN
BANK FOR BENEFIT OF WORK
Frs IN THE PLANT,

For more than a quarter OF CEN
fury the printers employed on The
Chicago Tribune conducted a relief
society for the benefit of the members
of that chapel. A few years ago the
society was extended to embrace al
employees Of the establishment-edito
ial, business Office, press room, stereo-
typers and circulation department.
Bank Plan Four Years Old.
In 1907 the employees of The Tribune
dubbed together and established a
cooperative organization known as
The Tribune Bank, to stand guard
over their savings and protect the in
dividual members from their own
natural tendencies to commit depre-
dations upon their individual boards
This organization in four years has
proved a great success. Every year
just before Christmas, a season OF
stress even for the opulent, the four
or five hundred people who have de-
posted amounts ranging from 25
cents to $3.50 week find in hand a
lump sum plus a generous interest.
which otherwise would have gone for
unaccountable tribes week by week
with nothing to show for the expendi-
ture at the end.
Many members who enter the bank
at the beginning of the year do so to
meet an insurance or rent payment
and withdraw their deposits without
interest before the close of the season.
Also there is limitation upon the
number of interest bearing shares
which an employee may take up at the
beginning of the season. Ten shares
at $3.50 share is the limit but many
take up more than this number, con-
tent with getting their principal back
at the end of the year, while the money
earned on these productive shares
swells the dividend on the productive
shares. Last year the people who paid
in their deposits on one share at 2E
cents week, got their principal, $3.50
plus $1.26 interest, or $13.76 in all
Those who took up ten shares on
which they paid in all 1925, received
$137.65.
System Would Be Good Everywhere
There is really no reason why such
systems should not be established in
every institution where there are suffi
cient employees to support it. The bank
has nothing to do with the firm. 1t is
purely cooperative among the en-
ployes and the employees alone benefit
by it, and, as. the figures show, they do
benefit generously.
What has been accomplished by the
employees of The Chicago Tribune is
possible in other establishments and
could be adopted by local unions with
benefit to their members. Many
working men pay into associations
the principal, benefits of which go to
promoters BY organizing within
their own ranks it is possible to re-
tain all the benefits.
