refusing to imperil the wool business,
vetoed the measure.
81 stand by my pledges to main

message, land will approve heartily

Then he appealed to congress- to re-
main in session until it had enacted q
measure to reduce "spbstantially un-
necessary existing duties without de-
stroying protection for the wool In.
dustry in the United States"
II Taft had approved this bill Aus
tralia and South America, which now
produce the bulk OF the worlds wool
supply, and at q much cheaper cost
per pound than It q be produced In
America, would wipe out the industry
in this country and every sheepman
in Montana would be forced out Of
business. The consequent depression
would have affected the banks, the
merchants, the employers of labor,
and labor itself.
The presidents attitude IL that OF .

consumer is the fret man whose righte
should be considered, but that benefits
conferred by unjustly destroying great
industries will be only temporary In
their nature, and that the subsequent
bankruptcy and disturbance OF busi-
ness will be 90 violent that industry's
wheels will be blocked; and then the
consumer will be in a far worse con
dition than before; for while his con-
Stunning power will 60 on, his earning
power will be reduced far below that
point protection insures him.
Taft realizes that in some instances
existing duties unequa!ly distribute
the burden, but he does insist, that for
the good OF the whole people, they
should be placed at that figure which
will equalize the difference between
the cost of production here and
abroad.
II the difference is not equalized,
neither will be the stand ard of living,
and free competition will inevitably
reduce this country's stand ard to that

Change Of Seed Needless.

Experiment station records show
that it is unnecessary to change seed
grain to get good yields. AT the Me-
braska station q new variety of winter
wheat was grown on the same soil for
q number of years. The yields in
creased as the variety became adapt
ed to it's environment, and it showed
q tendency to improve rather than de-
teriorate. The seed was carefully
cleaned and graded each year which
aided materially In the improvement
of the variety. Similar results have
been shown with other grain.
At the Minnesota Experiment Sta.
ton. where more than 1000 varieties
or strains have been tested, it is q
matter of common observation that
introductions from distant sources
rarely do we'll until acclimated.
Running out" OF varieties is due
to careless selection of seed grain and
poor tillage, rather than to natural
causes which deteriorat the variety
By reserving the best piece of Rrair
on the farm for seed. and by the ust
of the tanning mill and grain grader
the yields can be increased and
variety made more valuable to tn
locality. Buying seed every few year,
from regions having different coll

Watch Montana Grow.

HELENA, Aug. 8.-Real property In
Montana has gained in value about
%, 00O, 900. compared with the total
value last year, according to the un-
equalized assessment returns, which
are now being compiled by J. J. Ryan.
Three slight decreases are shown on
mining claims, improvements on same
and irrigating bitches.
According to figures compiled by J.
j. Ryan. clerk of the board of equali-
zation, there are at present 20, 1886, 847
acres of taxable land In Montana.
This is an increase of about 1900, 900
acres since last year, when 19, 167, 871
acres we're reported for taxation.
A value OF ss3, 127. $40 is placed on
this land as opposed to 81, l34, 902 last
year. This increase in value does not
include the improvements on the land
but simply the new land which has
been taken up and the increase In
value Of land already settled.
In addition to the value of the land
there is an aggregate of S2O, 377,1 ITO
worth Of improvements on it, 90 op-
posed to improvements valued at &c.
243, 945 last year. The small increase
In the value of improvements is ex.
planned by the fact that the great mum.
Der of new settlers who have COM into
the state lately have been busy with
the land itself and have not had time
to erect fine residences and buildings.

vided into the land value Of s31, 335, LAG
