Montana has long had reputation
az a potato country. No section OF
the world can produce finer varieties
of the tuber than the Treasure State.
AS proof of this attention has often
been called to the fact that the Bur-
,!ngton railroad maintains a farm in
this state where are grown all Of the
potatoes used on the dining cars OF
that system. What this means is bet
ter appreciated when it is recalled
that the Burlington pierces such
states as Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Min
nesota, Missouri and Colorado, in all
of which the potato crop has long
been a leading industry.
In the irrigated portions OF Mon
tana, the valleys of the Gallatin, the
Yellowstone, in the Bitter Root, the
Flathead, on the dry farming benches
of Northern Montana, Dawson and
Fergus counties, in fact in every sec
ton of Montana, potatoes which defy
comparison are grown and the inter
est the farmers are manifesting in
this crop during the present year is
greater than ever.
Because of this fact the officers OF
the Montana State Fair, who are work
ing for a Greater Montana in every
line, are offering special inducements
to potato growers to exhibit at the
fair this fall (Sept 23 to 28). Aside
from the regular cash prizes Offered
by the fair management the board Q
directors announce that some unusu

ally attractive cash prizes have been
arranged for. For instance, Walter
A. Pocock, manager of the Ryan hotel
IN St, Paul, has informed the board
that he will give $50 in gold, divided
into five monies, for the largest single
smooth potato grown in Montana DUR
ing the season of 1912. +. P. 8. Lind
say Of Helena offers $50 in gold for the
1OO-pound sack containing the least
number of potatoes and exhibited at
the fair, and the fair management has
added $25, making it a SIS cash prize.
Another valuable prize is offered
for the best collection of potatoes
grown by one exhibitor and contain
ing not less than four varieties. This
special $75 premium is given by the
oliver Chilled Plow Works, and the
winner will secure fame far beyond
the boundaries of Montana, for the
winning exhibit is to become the prop
erty of the Oliver people and is to
be used for exhibition purposes oIs
side of the state.
In catering thus to the potato In
dustry of Montana, the fair manage
| ment believes it is building up a
business which in years to come viii;
be one of the most profitable lines to
the agriculturist in the common
wealth. The fair management al
ready is assured of potato exhibit

Cooperative Unions Are Established
That Lend Them Money for Pro-
ductive Purposes.

With the help Of the Jewish Agrlcul-
tural and Industrial Aid society three
cooperative unions have been recently
established, one in Fairfield county,
Connecticut, one in Rensselaer, county,
New York, and the third in Ellington,
Conn.
These credit unions are established
in connection with the Jewish Farm
ers' associations in those places, which
are branches of the Federation OF jew
ish Farmers of America. The farmers
in each branch raised $500 by selling
shares, and the Jewish Agricultural
and Industrial Aid society loaned
$1,000 to them at low rate of inter
est.
The management of the credit unions
is entirely In the hands of board of
directors, who are elected by the farm
ers.
The money is loaned to farmers for
productive purposes on easy payments
and with small rates of interest. While
in Germany, Italy and other European
countries the credit unions have been
in existence for many years and were
found to be very helpful to the farm
ers and small business men, In this
country this is the first attempt

as disclosed was all natural and hui

of it was Mr.. Cross, with a bloody

Who did that?" he demanded of

up his dangling rein. and looking into
the questioning faces about him. THE
fellow that rode out yonder alone was
heading straight toward Carson City.
He is going for fresh horses, | figure
it, and will rejoin the bunch some
place down on the Arkansas. The
others intend to keep farther west,
where they won't be seen. What do
you say, Benz"
"Thet's the way 1t looms up ter me.
Cap; most likely twas the boss him
self"
Well, whoever it was, the girl is
still with the others, and their trail
is the easiest to follow. Well keep
after them"
They pushed on hour after hour, as
long as daylight lasted or they could
perceive the faintest trace to follow.
Already half-convinced that he knew
the ultimate destination Of the tug1-
tives, Keith yet dare not venture on
pressing forward during the night, thus
possibly losing the trail and being
compelled to retrace their steps. 1t
was better to proceed slow and sure.
! Besides, Judging from the condition OF
their own horses, the pursued would
be compelled to halt somewhere to
rest their stock also. Their trail even
revealed the fact that they were trav-
cling far less rapidly than at first, al
though evidently making every effort
to cover the greatest possible dis
lance before stopping. Just as the
dusk shut in close about them they
rode down into the valley of Shaw
, nee Fork, and discovered signs of a
recent camp at the edge of the stream.
Here, apparently, judging from the
campfire ashes, and the trampled
grass along the Fork, the party must
have halted for several hours. BY
| lighting matches Keith and Bristoe
discerned where some among them
had laid down to sleep, and, through
various signs, decided they must have
again departed some five or six hours
previous, one of their horses limping
as if lame. The tired purSuers went
into camp at the same spot, but with
out venturing to light any fire, merely
snatching a cold bite, and dropping
off to sleep with heads pillowed upon
their saddles.
They were upon the trail again with
| the first dimness of the gray dawn,
wading the waters of the Fork. and
striking forth across the dull level of
brown prairie and white alkali to-
ward the Arkansas. They saw nothing
all day moving in that wide vista
about them, but rode steadily, scarce
ly exchanging word, determined,
grim, never swerving a yard from the
faint trail The pursued were moving
slower, hampered, no doubt, by their
lame horse, but were still well in adj
vance. Moreover, the strain of the
saddle was already beginning to tell
severely on Waite, weakened somewhat
by years, and the pursuers were com
PEELED to halt oftener on his account
The end of the second day found them
approaching the broken land border
ing the Arkansas valley, and just be-
fore nightfall they picked up LAM.

party ahead.
