DALLAS BOOSTERS WILL MAKE
NEIGHBoRLY CALL TODAY
AND VIEW EXHIBITS
AT FALLS CITY
Delegation to Leave on Morning Train
For Neighboring Town of Falls
City, Where They Will Take in the
Fair and Spend the Day in Social
Intercourse and Hand Shaking.

To show its good will and neighbor-
ly feeling, to boost for Polk county and
its wonderful resources, and to see
and enjoy the Falls City fair, which
closes tonight, large delegation of
the Dallas Commercial club, and many
of the citizens of this place, are to
leave this morning fGG a days visit in
the beautiful mountain city to the
westward, where the air is pungent
with the odor of the fir and the soil
is rich in the products required by
man. The matter was decided upon
at the regular meeting of the club
Wednesday night, and an enthusiastic
and jolly lot of Dallasonians, every
one bearing a badge with the word
"Dallas - imprinted thereon, will
make the trip today.
Urges New Station.
Among other subjects under con-
sideration at the meeting, was the
suggestion Of U. S. Grant, that some
steps should be taken toward obtain
ing a more adequate railroad station
for this city. The present structure
was entirely too small for the CONNER
cial needs of the place, and larger
and more modern building, in keeping
with the development Of the town,
should be erected.
Edwin jacobson was appointed to
go to the state fair grounds at Salem
and get the exhibit of grains and
grasses sent over by Polk county this
fall. 1t was considered worthy of
and will be brought back
and stored for future use.
The report of Financial Secretary
Tracy Stats for the month ending
80, showed a balance on
hand of $1O17.3O, in the club treas
ury.

The Waste In Flax.

For we'll on to a half century effort
has been made to build up a genuine
industry in this country in the manu-
facture of the finest linens: but thus
far without avail. Growing annually
in this country upward OF 1900, 600
acres of fax North Dakona alone
some 1000, 900, J the fiber after thresh-
ing still continues very largely waste
matter. Some goes to tow mills, a
restricted quantity for other industrial
uses, and untold numbers OF fax
str aw stacks are burned to get them
out of the way. While all this fiber
would not necessarily be suitable tor
linen, the fact remains that linen ia
made from fax, and that where the
industry %fiourishes it Is very largely
on imported fax. Recent reliable
figures show more than 2,30O, 900 faz
spindles, all the way from Russia or
the east to Ireland on the west. IRELAND
has go, OOO, 600 invested in the liner
industry; the United States %, 600, 600
While there are lions in the way in
terfering with the development OF TIT
industry, it is at least an interesting

From Chouteau to Carbon and from
Dawson to Lincoln, Montana Is today
one vast wheat field and garden. In
both the irrigated and dry farm
regions crops of all descriptions are

fore been the case in this state. That
means prosperity for Montana farmers
and it ought to mean a great addition
to the agricultural population of the
Treasure state.
There has been a season Of unpre-
cedented heat in the central regions
of the country at just the time when
heat could do the greatest amount OF
harm. There have been dry spells al
most reaching the proportions Of
drouth, just when moisture was
needed, and there is a grave danger Of
. crop shortage in these regions un'
less bountiful rains should come iE
time to save at least q portion of the
late crops. This means almost q cal
amity to the farmers of the central re-
gione, while it means unprecedented
prosperity for the Montana farmer.
It's an i'll wind that blows no ont
any good, and while the Montana
farmer will be sorry for his less for
tunate brother, still he can be glac
that the misfortune has passed hin

He Wasn't Her Papa.

The death of Dave Mofa att calls to
mind a story we heard about him in
Denver 10 years ago. He vent to
Chicago. He was alone, and when he
stepped from the Pullman train into
the crowd on the platform q sweet,
fluffy young thing threw herself into
his arms.
"Oh, dad!' she cried, with q series
OF ecstatic hugs. "Oh, papa, dear I'm
SO glad to-oh."
She perceived her error and blushed
painfully, but gl%oriously. I'll beg
your pardon,' she stammered ell
t-th-thought your were my papa. l.
And she tried to escape into the throne
where she could hide her confusion
But the gallant empire builder would
have none of such. He still held bel
firmly in q quasi.paternal embrace.
II am not your papa, it is true" b
whispered, tenderly, "but I am goinl
to play that part for awhile. Don
try to get away from me my dear
I'm going to play papa to you unit
the police come"
When the police came they restore
Mr.. Moffatt's watch aud damon
scarf pin to him and led the strugglin
broiler away.

Returns On Primary Bill.

BOHEMIAN, July 12.-Representative
B. B. Law of Gallatin county, and
who ia secretary of the commission
appointed by Governor Norris to draft
a primary law to be submitted to the
Legislators for an answer to as wheth-
er or not they will support it in the
event OF calling an extra session, has
received 80 replies. Twenty five of
these we're from representatives and
I from senator's. OF the entire num-
Der one single unqualified refusal to
support the measure has been received
that OF Representative Schwartz of
Chouteau county. Several have
named objections but have intima ted
that with q few minor changes in the
measure as drafted they would sup
port it.
Representatives lord IN of Madison,
and Vaughn of Sanders, are not en-
th~usiastic about the bill. Jordan
writes he believes the commission drew
q good bill but that it needs minor
changes and with these he will support
it.. Vaughn believes the cost of
special session would outweigh the
good to be gained. He expressed
himself as Of the belief the primary
law may be found to be cumbersome
and impractical.
Mr.. Law states that he finds many
Of the legislators out of the state anf
others who have been either too busl
or else moving about too much to an
swer, but he expects to have replieI
from about all within the near future
Mr.. Law Is optimistic that enough
will pledge themselves for the measur
to warrant the governor calling q
extra session.

him, he will be able to make that start
prosperity which is always so
hard even under the best of conditions
ia q new country.
Last year was q season of general
drouth throughout the country and
Montana did not miss it's share. Even
though our farmers were hard hit, still
those who had farmed intelligently
were able to harvest q fair crop as
crops go in Montana, far above the
average elsewhere and almost as good
as is expected in the central regions
even in good years.
The Montana farmer in q year OF
unprecedented dryness was no t ruined
even though he anne here too late to
participate in the abunda ant harvests
of 1909, and this year he will be put
beyond all danger because OF not only
9 wonderful yield from his acres but
an enhanced price due to crop short
ages elsewhere.
Taking it year in and year out, Mon
tana 10 the paradise OF the wheat
farmer, the alfalfa grower and the
raiser of sugar beets. General farm
crops have been demonstrated sure ir
the Treasure state and when intellt'
gence and industry are demonstrated
by the farmer, there is nc place oE
earth where he can count for so great
q return for the time and money in
vested as is the case of Montana
